Is the name entry at the beginning family/given or vice versa? If there's an indicator I'm dumb and missed it.

Some of these minibosses are brutal. I've had trouble with the Archangel and the Mokoi. Both took retries, and the Mokoi fight ended with Haru on her own just barely eking out the win.

Fusing a Slime with Agi and Garu and spamming dodge gets me a lot closer to victory, but I still can't do it yet. I think I'll grind for yen and EXP tomorrow, and if that doesn't work I'll switch to Easy.

ApplesandOranges posted:Use Rakunda (Sophie comes with it if you don't want to use Joker for it) to drop their defense. Later on you can use Matarukaja to also buff ATK (Ryuji will learn it pretty late, but he does have Tarukaja for single targets and it's not like he's using his SP for anything). All-Out Attacks are the big damage bomb but you need to deplete all their shields to use it. Is there any way to turn off teammate skills so Sophie doesn't waste her SP on anything else? I'm going to take her into my next Alice attempt.

My heart is going a mile a milisecond because I managed to beat Alice in a fight that went down to the absolute wire I made liberal use of Rakunda and Tarunda. Sophie was the last one standing in the end

The second Jail is entirely the writing team firing shots at current light novel trends and it's absolutely incredible

The first Jail being ridiculously harder due to lower resources is pretty on brand with Persona 5 as a whole imo

Speaking of which, I did that request where you refight Alice and boy is that fight a lot more doable when you have more SP and better Personas I'm really just applying Rakunda/Tarunda to anything with a top-screen health bar now, it makes things a lot simpler

Jail 5: I was confused at first by the Thieves immediately realizing that it was Akane's Jail, but I guess it's actually that they knew her Shadow would be there but not that it was her Jail specifically? Also, fantastic touch having Futaba be the only one to avoid the trap because she's so out of shape she lagged behind

And all the ones that require you to go through a spotlight section to get to said location can In case you didn't know, you can slam an overworld Shadow with a Persona skill to start the fight and it won't count towards the security level.

Omi no Kami posted:Okay, so wait- I'm still on the first dungeon, but it looks like time doesn't pass when you leave jail? So is there any reason to not constantly bounce out to refill HP/SP, then dive back in? No, it's actually a very useful strategy. And in the first dungeon you'll need it. Activate checkpoints whenever you see them
