walktrough persona4

4/11 After inputting the Protagonist's name, watch the introduction scenes, and when you have control, save your game at the calendar on the wall. Head upstairs and lie down on the futon to take part in the dream sequence. In the dream, run forward to the end of the path, examine the large block, then get ready for a fight. You can't lose this fight, so don't worry about failing. This is a good time to try out your various skills, so experiment to your heart's content. After the being disappears, wait a couple turns for the battle to end. 4/12 Watch more introduction scenes in the early morning of this rainy Tuesday, and during your conversation, pick the "You calling me a loser?" option to increase your Courage. Watch more scenes throughout the rest of the day. 4/13 More scenes to watch. In the morning, you'll have a lecture, which increases your Knowledge. Watch more scenes for the rest of the day, then return to your room to watch the Midnight Channel. 4/14 You'll have a pop quiz this morning; choose "When Jesus was born" to gain a boost to your Knowledge. After school you'll head off to Junes, where you'll enter the TV there. In the conversation inside the TV, choose the "Are you guys okay?" dialogue to increase your Understanding. 4/15 Lots of scenes to watch today. After school, select the "I'm worried about Chie" option to gain a boost to your Understanding. You'll have your first real fights today. Your first battle is against a pair of Slipping Hableries. Use the Zio skill to knock them down, then use normal attacks to defeat them. After that, you have a boss fight! When Shadow Yosuke guards, it usually means it's about to unleash its Wind attack; do likewise and Guard! Boss: Shadow Yosuke HP: 300 • Suggested Level: 2 Shadow Yosuke's Forgetful Wind can knock you down here, so be sure to always Guard when the boss is about to use it (it will often Guard just before it does), or when it uses Power Charge to boost its next attack. When you aren't Guarding, spam Zio to knock Shadow Yosuke down, then follow it up with an attack. Conserve your SP for this specific purpose! Yosuke will now join your party, along with his Persona, Jiraiya. Head back to your room for the evening to receive the Velvet Key, which allows you access to the Velvet Room starting April 17th. 4/16 Watch the early morning scenes, after which the Magician Social Link (I) can be established by speaking with Yosuke. Watch the remaining scenes to end the day, and the first week. 4/17 - 4/23 4/17 Talk to Teddie at the gate to Yukiko's Castle for some free supplies. Watch the scenes that play today, and you'll eventually end up at the Metal Works store and receive 5,000 yen. Buy a new weapon each for the Protagonist and Yosuke, then leave the shop. The door to the Velvet Room will appear next to you now, so unlock it with the Velvet Key to visit it and begin to learn about Persona Fusion. Exit the shop area now to the north or south and head to the Food Court at the Junes department store. The events will take you to the Gate of Yukiko's Castle, your first dungeon. Talk to Teddie for Peach Seed x5, Soul Drop x5, and a Revival Bead. Yukiko's Castle Enter the castle now and head up to the second floor. Fight as many enemies as you can to earn EXP and raise levels. Try to get to level 6 if you can. Use Garu on Shadow Chie until she uses Green Wall, at which point you should use Rakunda to weaken her again. As you fight enemies, you may get a chance to pick a Persona card after a battle from the Shuffle Time game. If you happen to pick an Angel card, hold onto it, and equip it just before you fight the boss. Conserve your Soul Drops, and use them to replenish your SP when you're ready to face the boss on the second floor, Shadow Chie. Boss: Shadow Chie HP: 1,000 • Suggested Level: 6 Shadow Chie starts out weak to Wind attacks, which makes Yosuke your best friend here as he uses Garu. Unfortunately, though, Shadow Chie will throw up Green Wall that makes her resistant to Wind after she's hit with Garu. If you have the Angel Persona equipped, switch to Izanagi and cast Rakunda to lower her defenses. Hit her with physical attacks or switch back to Angel, and cast Rakunda every now and then. If she hits Yosuke with Mazio and inflicts Dizzy, use a Medicine to heal him and continue the assault until Shadow Chie goes down. Chie is now a playable character, and a Social Link will be established for Fool Arcana. 4/18 Before class, you'll establish a Chariot Social Link with Chie. Don't worry about not having the Courage to give some of the responses to Chie; you'll be able to give them on a second playthrough. Talk to this student to start your first sidequest. You have until April 29th to rescue Yukiko from the castle, and to do that you must defeat the boss on the 8th floor. That's 11 days from today, so you should spend three of those days working your way through the castle, starting today. Try to get to the fifth floor, then escape the dungeon before facing the boss. We'll come back here on the 27th to deal with that. There's a Pop Quiz in class; choose "The" to increase your Knowledge. After school, the Who's the Riddle Master?! sidequest becomes available. You can also go see your friends at the Food Court at Junes and enter the TV to explore the Yukiko's Castle dungeon (covered later). 4/19 Head to the Faculty Office and ask to join a club, then take the Emergency Exit on the 1st floor to the gym to establish a Strength (XI) Social Link. 4/20 Talk with Yosuke. During the afternoon conversation, select the "Millennium" answer to increase your Expression and the Magician Social Link. After school, the A Great Man book is available to purchase at the Yomanaido Bookstore in the Shopping District. A Magician Social Link is also available. 4/21 Talk with Yosuke in the early morning. A Strength Social Link is available after school. 4/22 Talk with Yosuke in the early morning. A Magician Social Link is available. 4/23 There's a Pop Quiz during glass; choose the "They were by the riverside" answer to boost your Expression and Magician Social Link. After school, check out the Job Board at the north end of the Shopping District, on the left side of the street. Easily the best job available is the Assistant Day Car Caretaker position, since it pays better and rewards you with the Temperance Social Link after your second day of work. But you don't have to take on a job if you're too busy doing other things! A Strength Social Link is available now, as is a Magician one if you've saved Yukiko. 4/24 - 4/30 4/24 A Strength Social Link is available via your cell phone, as is a Magician link. 4/25 There's a Pop Quiz in class; choose "8 A.M." to boost your Knowledge. The Girl on the Rooftop sidequest is available after school. The Assistant Day Care Caretaker job is available today. If you've saved Yukiko, a Magician Social Link is available. You can also establish a Sun (XIX) Social Link by going to the Faculty Office, asking to join a club, going to the Practice Building, then entering the Meeting Room to join the Drama Club or the Music Room to join the Music Club. If you've saved Yukiko, you can make lunch for tomorrow from the food in the fridge. Choose to score it with a knife to receive the Aromatic Pork Ginger and three Baits. 4/26 Talk to Chie in the early morning. There's a Pop Quiz in class: answer "It's a perfect number" to increase your Expression and Chariot Social Link. During lunch today, you can share the meal you made (see previous day's activities) with one of your classmates. Select someone you have a Social Link with to increase that link slightly. If you saved Yukiko, a Chariot Social Link is available. Strength and Sun are also available. In the evening, you can eat a snack to increase your Courage (you can do this only once) if you made lunch after rescuing Yukiko. 4/27 Nothing special happens today, making it an ideal day to tackle Day 2 of your three-day assault on Yukiko's Castle. Return to the fifth floor to deal with the boss, an Avenger Knight. Make sure you're all healed up before attacking him! Have your allies use skills like Bufu against the Avenger Knight, since it's strong to physical attacks. Boss: Avenger Knight HP: 430 • Suggested Level: 11 The easiest way to take down the strong Avenger Knight is to acquire a Slime Persona from a Shuffle Time game, then raise it to level 7. At that point, it will have learned Tarunda and Resist Physical. Use these two skills to keep the Protagonist nearly invincible in this battle. Your allies will gradually learn to use Bufu and Garu against the Knight, which is strong against their physical attacks. You'll obtain the Glass Key after the fight. Now plow your way up to the 8th floor and use the Save Point there. If you have any remaining SP, go back down to the 6th and 7th Floors to level grind until you run out, then escape from the dungeon. 4/28 If you have saved Yukiko by now, talk to Chie in the early morning. After school, the Sun Social Link is available. 4/29 You have to rescue Yukiko before Evening today, or it's Game Over for you, friend. Head off to the castle and return to the 8th floor, then pass through the doors to face the boss, Shadow Yukiko. Before you tackle this battle, you'll probably want to level up a Slime and an Ukobach Persona until they've learned all their skills, then combine them in a triangle fusion to create an Archangle with Resist Fire, Resist Physical, and Red Wall. Level up the Archangel to 12. Protect Chie in the battle with Shadow Yukiko with Red Wall. Boss: Shadow Yukiko HP: 1,050 • Suggested Level: 15 When the battle begins, cast Red Wall on Chie, and then again intermittently to keep her safe. Chie's presence will prevent the summoned Charming Price from using Diarama. Your leveled-up Archangel will get you through this battle easily with its Media spell. Use a TaP Soda (purchased from the vending machine by the medicine shop) if your SP gets low. 4/30 Talk to Yukiko in the early morning. In the Pop Quiz in class, answer "Mt. Olympus" to boost your Knowledge. After that, just watch the cutscenes that bring this month to a close. May 5/1 - 5/7 5/1 You can go revisit Yukiko's castle now and battle the Contrarian King on the 8th floor for a new weapon for Yukiko (check the stairs in front of the throne after you defeat him for it) if you want, but there are other things to do now. For instance, if you go down by the river's edge you'll meet an old man who will give you a fishing set and baits. Taking them means you can spend your day or evening fishing from now on, if you so choose. The Acquire Mori Ranmaru Shochu sidequest is available now. 5/2 During the Lecture in class, you'll gain a boost to your Knowledge. After school, study with Yosuke or Chie to raise your Knowledge and Social Link. The Acquire an Angel Statue, Acquire a Demon Statue, and Acquire a Ritz Wire sidequests are all available now.

In the evening, the Justice Social Link is available. 5/8 - 5/14 5/8 You can increase your Chariot Social Link if the call is accepted. If not, Magician and Hermit are also available. 5/9 Talk with Chie today, and during the exam in class, "8 AM" and "Before Christ" are the correct answers. 5/10 More exams. Correct answers are "6" and "Millennium." 5/11 Exams continue. Correct answers are "Rene Descartes" and "Mt. Olympus." 5/12 Last day of exams.

At home in the evening, you can make Beef Stew by choosing "Simmer with a drop lid." The Hierophant Social Link is also available. 5/13 The Moon (XVIII) Social Link can be established. To do so, you must get your Strength Social Link to Rank 4 and your Courage to Rank 3, then talk to Ai and ask to hang out with her. During lunchtime, she'll ask you to cut class with her, so join her. Note that you will miss any lectures, conversations, or pop quizzes in the afternoon on the day you do this, making today a great day to establish this link. The Hermit and Temperance links are also available today. 5/14 Watch the cutscene today. In the evening, eat a snack from the fridge to increase your Courage. 5/15 - 5/21 5/15 Watch the cutscenes today, and in the evening conversation, choose "Both" to boost your Understanding or "Neither" to boost your Courage. 5/16 Another cutscene day.

The Hermit, Strength, and Moon Social Links are all available. In the evening, the Justice link is also available. Start today, you have until June 4th to rescue Kanji. To get this ball rolling, first talk to Kanji's mother outside the Textile Shop, next to the Shrine in the North Shopping District. After that, go to the elevator lobby at Junes and talk to the woman there. We'll return here tomorrow to talk to the guy who might know where Kanji is. 5/19 The exams scores are posted during lunchtime, and based on how well you did, you'll get rewards. Talk to the history teacher, Ms. Sofue, by the west stairwell on the 2nd floor to get her reward, and talk to Ryotaro when he's around. Nanako also has a reward for you. Check the chart below to see what you'll get, based on whether you were below the top ten, in the top ten, or top of your class. Unless you score at the bottom of your class (in which case you get nothing) you'll at the very least receive a small boost to your Social Links with your classmates. Exam Rewards Reward Giver Below Top 10 Top 10 Head of Class Ms. Sofue Chest Key x3 Chest Key x3 Ryotaro 10,000 yen 20,000 yen 30,000 yen Nanako Accessory After school, the Hermit, Moon, Sun, and Strength Social Links are available, and Empress (III) Social Link can be established. To do so, talk to Margaret, though your Knowledge must be at Rank 3. This group meets at the Velvet Room. To continue the Kanji quest, go back to Junes today and talk to the guy who knows Kanji. Now head into the TV to speak with Teddie and unlock the next dungeon, the Steamy Bathhouse. This dungeon has 11 floors and bosses on the 7th and 11th floors, but don't start it today. Tomorrow's better. 5/20 After school, the Moon, Hermit, and Temperance Social Links are available. In the evening, the Justice link is also available. Steamy Bathhouse Today's a good day to get started on the Kanji dungeon. Try to get to the 7th floor and clear it, but don't take on the boss just yet, just escape for now, and come back between the 21st and 29th, or June 3rd. On your next trip here, take on the boss: Daring Gigas uses a lot of Power Charged attacks, so use a Persona that resists physical attacks. Boss: Daring Gigas HP: 928 • Suggested Level: 23 Before this battle, make sure you've got plenty of Revival Beads and equip any Falcon Eyes you've found. The Sukunda skill is your friend here, so make sure you've got it. Daring Gigas uses attacks such as Rebellion, Power Charge, Turkaja, and Single Shot, so you'll want to have a good Persona for your Protagonist that resists physical attacks. Rakashasa's a good one; fuse Legion and Berith to get it. You'll obtain the Bathhouse Key after the battle. This allows you open the locked door to the stairs on the 3rd floor. Keep going up to the 11th floor, use the Save Point there, then escape the dungeon. When you return to the 11th floor a fresh, ready-for-bear party on your third trip here, be prepared for a fight against three bosses! Have Cool Beads equipped, and bring along some Dokudami Teas. And your Rakashasa Persona will work well here. Each of the three targets in the battle with Shadow Kanji has a different elemental weakness, so don't use group attacks! Bosses: Shadow Kanji, Nice Guy, Tough Guy Kanji - HP: 2,000 • Nice Guy & Tough Guy - HP: 800 each • Suggested Level: 27 Set your allies to Manual here, because they won't ever seem to learn not to use group attacks: the Nice Guy absorbs Ice attacks, and the Tough Guy absorbs Fire and physical attacks. Take out Nice Guy first, since he can heal Kanji and boost his stats. You may want to switch to a Persona that uses Dekaja so you can strip Nice Guy of his buffs. After you take out Nice Guy, use Tarunda or Sakunda to get rid of any buffs Shadow Kanji has, then take down Tough Guy. Once they're gone, you can switch your allies off Manual control to finish off Kanji. Hopefully you have done this by June 4th, or it's Game Over! 5/21 If you've saved Kanji by today (an unlikely prospect, but possible), the Magician Social Link is available today. Otherwise, the Hermit, Strength, Chariot, and Temperance links are also available. In the evening, another Magician Social Link is available if Kanji's been saved, as is a Hierophant link. 5/22 - 5/28 5/22 Starting today, and every applicable Sunday onward, you can buy item packages from the TV in your room; the package will arrive a few days after purchase.

In the evening, the Justice link is available. There are two new jobs posted on the part-time job board, for Tutor and Janitor positions.

To get the Tutor job, you must have an Understanding Rank of 5; this job leads to the Tower Social Link on your second day of work. 5/26 In the afternoon conversation, choose "Sacred carvings" to boost your Expression and Magician Social Link. After school, the Magician, Chariot, Priestess, Hermit, Moon, Strength, and Sun links are all available.

This dungeon has 11 floors, with bosses on the 7th and 11th floors. Start clearing the dungeon today, getting up to the 7th floor and clearing it (except for the boss). Come back on July 1st to deal with the boss on the 7th floor: Don't bother curing yourself if you're Poisoned; you'll be cured after this brief battle. Boss: Amorous Snake HP: 1,012 • Suggested Level: 32 Thankfully, the Amorous Snake isn't very difficult to defeat. It will try to poison you, but if it succeeds, just ignore it, because you'll be cured from it after the battle. It may also hit you with other ailments, and those you should try to cure as soon as possible. Keep your HP above 100 at all times and just keep attacking until the snake goes toes-up. So to speak. Open the chest here for a Soma, then head up to the 11th floor and use the Save Point there. Exit the dungeon, and come back on July 8th or 9th to finish the job. Put Chie in your party instead of Yukiko, and put your team's tactics to Manual for the boss fight on the 11th floor. Use fire-based skills on Shadow Rise. Boss: Shadow Rise HP: 2,800 • Suggested Level: 35 Have Chie guarding at all times while the rest of your party uses Fire attacks on Shadow Rise. Once you've knocked her down to 50% of her health, Rise will use Supreme Insight to find out your party's weaknesses. Now set your team's tactics to Guard, and you should also Guard. Guard for three rounds until the battle ends. When Shadow Teddie starts charging up for a major attack, wait for Rise to tell you to Guard, then Guard! Rise will join you now to help you with a fight against Shadow Teddie. Boss: Shadow Teddie HP: 5,000 • Suggested Level: 35 Here's where having Chie in your party will come in handy, because she'll use Mind Charge often and follow it up with Mabufula. Use a Persona that protects you from Ice attacks, and start attacking with physical attacks. Use Mouthwash if he tries to mute you. After a while of attacking, Shadow Teddie will start charging up an attack. Wait for Rise to tell you to guard, then turn off your party's AI and have everyone Guard in order to survive the attack. 6/26 - 6/30 6/26 During the day, the Magician, Emperor (if you've saved Rise), Death, and Hermit Social Links are available.

Void Quest Speak to the guy outside the Tofu store today and you'll be able to enter Mitsuo's dungeon, Void Quest. This is a 10-floor dungeon with bosses on the 7th and 10th floors. Spend today getting to the 7th floor, clear it, but save the boss for your return. If the Killing Hand summons an Almighty Hand to the battle, kill it with wind skills, then go back to using physical attacks on the boss. Come back to the dungeon on 8/6 to take on the 7th floor boss battle. Boss: Killing Hand HP: 885 • Suggested Level: 40 The Killing Hand itself isn't all that difficult, and can be defeated with simple physical attacks. What adds a little spice to this battle is that the Killing Hand can periodically summon an Almighty Hand to the battle. The Almighty Hand can heal the Killing Hand, but it doesn't have much HP and is weak to Wind attacks, so lay into it whenever it appears, then get back to hammering on the boss. This shouldn't take long. Check the chest in this room for an Orb of Darkness, then head to the 10th floor. Use the Save Point there, then escape the dungeon. Return on or before August 12th to take on the boss on the 10th floor. To prepare, equip the Protagonist with a Bravery Vessel or similar accessory to protect against the boss's status-effect spells. Fuse Ose with a Power to create a Pyro Jack, then create a Black Frost so that it can inherit Power Charge from the Pyro Jack. You'll see why soon enough. You can't even attack Shadow Mitsuo until you deal with this largy, boxy sprite! Boss: Shadow Mitsuo HP: 4,000 • Suggested Level: 43 Unlike the last battle, this one's tough, and long! At the start of the battle, Mitsuo will summon a large sprite to protect itself from attack, and you must destroy the sprite before you can damage Shadow Mitsuo. All well and good, except that the sprite can be created again and again, and Mitsuo gets two actions per turn. Begin by chipping away at the sprite until it's destroyed. Mitsuo's Shadow will often use an elemental spell, so if you have any characters weak to that element, switch them to Manual control and set them to Guard until Mitsuo begins to rebuild the sprite. While Mitsuo's Shadow is exposed, you need to use Power Charge as often as possible. Use Rakunda as well to boost your damage output. You should be able to knock down Mitsuo's Shadow and release an All-Out Attack before it tries to rebuild the sprite. Continue using this strategy until Mitsuo's Shadow is finished. 7/30 The Emperor, Hermit, Magician, and Temperance Social Links are available today.

Rise should now have enough info to find the Secret Laboratory dungeon. Secret Laboratory The Secret Lab has 9 floors, with bosses on the 4th and 9th floor. To get to the 4th floor boss, though, you must obtain the Research Card from the 6th floor, then go back down to the 4th floor and use the card to unlock the door to the boss. On your first day in this dungeon, just make your way to the 6th floor, get the Research Card, and exit the dungeon. Return to the dungeon no later than 10/1 and head up to the 4th floor to take on the boss there. Boss: Dominating Machine HP: 3,070 • Suggested Level: 50 The Dominating Machine is very predictable, as it will only ever use Power Charge and follow that with a physical attack that hits everyone in your party. Use Sakunda to lower its hit rate, then use Mediarama after every one of the boss's attacks. For this reason, having Teddie and Yukiko manually controled in the party is very beneficial. As for your offensive, use Power Charge and Mind Charge to boost the Protagonist's attack power, and use Rakunda and Matarukaja as well. You'll now have the Leader Card that allows you to unlock the door on the 6th floor. Head through that door and continue to the 9th floor. Save your game at the Save Point, then exit the dungeon. Return on or before 10/5 to tackle the dungeon's 9th floor boss, Shadow Naoto. Boss: Shadow Naoto HP: 5,500 • Suggested Level: 54 Before the battle begins, equip your teammates with accessories that help them evade their weaknesses. You'll want to cast Sakunda and Masukukaja constantly to boost your evade rate, as this boss likes to use spells to target your weaknesses. Keep your HP above 300 at all times by using Mediarama or Diarahan! Depending on which attack Shadow Naoto hits you with, you'll want to respond properly: If you're hit with Debilitate, cast Dekunda. If you're hit with Mute Ray, switch the afflicted character to Manual and Guard until the effect wears off. If you're knocked unconscious, take that character off of guard stance and use a Revival Bead. If the boss casts Galgalim Eyes, use Diarahan, then cure the enervation. If Naoto uses Heat Riser, cast Dekaja. Eventually, Shadow Naoto will start using Mind Charge; respond by casting Makarakarn and using Magic Mirrors. 9/18 - 9/24 9/18 The Lovers, Death, Hermit, and Magician links are available today, as is Emperor if Naoto has been saved.

You now have until 11/20 to rescue Nanako from the new dungeon, Heaven, or it's Game Over for you. This new dungeon has 10 floors, with bosses on the 7th and 10th floors. The rainy days to tackle this dungeon are 11/11, 11/18, 11/19, and 11/20 (but note that 11/20 is the last rainy day before the game's final boss). Heaven The best plan is to clear the way to the 7th floor, then go back down to the entrance and swap in some fresh teammates with full SP to deal with the 7th floor boss. Boss: World Balance HP: 1,200 • Suggested Level: 60 The World Balance always uses Mind Charge and follows it up with a skill to exploit one of your teammates' weaknesses. Use Diarahan and Samarecarm, and just go to town on this low-HP boss. It shouldn't last very long. Proceed to the 10th floor, use the Save Point, and exit the dungeon. Return no later than 11/20 and take on the 10th floor boss. Make sure the Protagonist can use Ice, Elec, Wind, and Fire skills, as well as Mind Charge, Makarakarn, Samarecarm, and Mediarahan. Have Personae that have Null, Repel, and/or Absorb Fire/Ice/Elec/Wind. Boss: Kunino-sagiri HP: 8,500 • Suggested Level: 64 When the battle begins, start attacking the boss until you've chipped away about a third of his health. At that point, the boss will use Quad Converge, which makes your party much more susceptible to one element. This includes the boss, so you can exploit this! Switch your party to Manual control and make everyone Guard. Watch to see which elemental skill the boss uses, then use Makarakarn or a Magic Mirror on any character already weak to that element. Now use that same element to attack the boss! After Kunino-sagiri's health drops to 50%, it will take control of one of your teammates for two turns. Switch to a Persona that can resist or null this character's attacks, and keep attacking the boss. Once its HP drops to 25%, it will take control of all three of your teammates. Switch to a Persona that can block physical attacks and Guard for a couple turns until the teammates are freed from the boss's grasp. When Kunino-sagiri's health is very low, expect it to use Unerring Justice, which can damage you for up to around 200 HP! Use Masukukaja and Sukunda to boost your chances of evading it. Continue attacking the boss, as it's almost dead! It should drop soon at this point in the battle. 11/7 Pop quiz in class today: answer "The south pole" to boost your Knowledge.

Here are the people you must interrogate: The old man next to the woman in front of the Shrine. The man standing next to Rise in the Shopping District's north end. The man with a gas mask in the Shopping District's north end. The girl by Yosuke in the Shopping District's south end. The woman across the street from the gas station in the Shopping District's south end. The girl in the lobby of Junes. The old man in front of the gazebo on the Riverbank's Path. The guy by the tree on the Riverbank's Path. After you've spoken to everyone, you'll convene at the restaurant to confirm the suspect. You must pick from a list of 26 suspects, and you have only three chances to get it right. If you screw this up, you'll get the Bad Ending. Guess correctly to stay on path for the Good Ending. Incidentally, the correct suspect is the tenth one on the list. 12/6 Just cutscenes today. 12/7 Just cutscenes today. 12/8 Your exam scores are posted at lunchtime today. See your rewards below.

Exam Rewards Reward Giver Below Top 10 Top 10 Head of Class Ms. Sofue Soma x1 Soma x1 After school, the Strength, Hanged Man, Hermit, Sun, and Moon Social Links are available. In the evening, the Devil and Tower links are available. Magatsu Inaba/Mandala Starting today, you have until 12/24 to enter the final dungeon and capture the suspect, or it's Game Over. If you defeat the final boss before the evening of 12/22, you will jump to 12/23 and receive a special Christmas scene and receive an accessory, though this isn't worth the time you would have been spending raising your Social Links, so wait as long as possible before taking on the final boss. You're going to want to spend your remaining free days building up your Social Links so you can have access to the advanced Personae. When you enter the dungeon for the first time by talking to Teddie in the TV world, you'll want to spend some time acquiring items; the treasures you find on your trek there can be sold to unlock new armor. This dungeon is made up of two areas. The first area, the Magatsu Inaba, has three floors. Once you get to the 2nd floor of this area, you can't go back, and you can't go to the third floor until you've gone through a bit of the other area, called Magatsu Mandala, which is accessible in the center of this floor. When you get to the 3rd floor of Magatsu Mandala, you have to get through the floor without getting into a fight with the shadows; if you do, you'll be returned to the entrance of the dungeon. Use this to your advantage if you want to exit the dungeon: get into a fight with a shadow on purpose to get booted, then come back refreshed! To get through the 3rd floor of Magatsu Mandala, go right at the first intersection, left at the next, straight at the next, left at the next, left at the next, right at the next, right at the next, and straight at the next two. That should take you to the first boss of this dungeon, Chaos Fuzz. Boss: Chaos Fuzz HP: 600 • Suggested Level: 70 The Chaos Fuzz will use every turn to summon more Chaos Fuzzes, as well as other enemies, so you'll want to throw up Tetrakarn and use counterattack skills. Equip counterattacking accessories, while you're at it. Use Charged attacks to hit multiple enemies and take them out as fast as you can. Fighting the Shadows on this floor will not boot you from the dungeon now. Proceed to the 6th floor, then exit the dungeon to come back another day. When you return, be prepared to face the 6th floor boss. Boss: Envious Giant HP: 3,333 • Suggested Level: 73 The Envious Giant is in love with the Megidoloan attack, which it uses almost all the time, though it will randomly toss in a Tentarafoo to Confuse you. Have the Protagonist equipped with an accessory to null Panic, and use Amrita or Me Patra on someone if they become Panicked. Use physical attacks on the Envious Giant. Keep your HP up with Mediarahan, especially just before the boss's next turn, and use Masukukaja to dodge the Megidolaons. You can now access the final boss on the 3rd floor of Magatsu Inaba. Spend any free days left building your levels in the dungeon before facing that final challenge! Note that if you try to escape the dungeon from the Save Point just before the final boss, you'll be taken back to the 6th floor of Magatsu Mandala, not the entrance. Boss: Adachi HP: 4,200 • Suggested Level: 78 No, this isn't the final boss battle, but it leads straight into it, so bear that in mind. Have Yosuke use Dekaja on the boss to null the boosts of his Heat Riser skill, then use a Persona that can nullify physical attacks to cripple his Vorpal Blade attack. Have accessories equipped to boost your Evade, and a Bravery Vessel (or better) equipped to the Protagonist, too. Use the appropriate Personae to cover any weaknesses your party members have, and be prepared for Adachi to use Ghastly Wail and Evil Smile when his HP gets low. Boss: Ameno-sagiri HP: 8,000 • Suggested Level: 78 First off, if your HP/SP is low from the battle with Adachi, use a Soma to restore your party. Ameno-sagiri gets two actions per turn, so you'll need to cover your weaknesses with Makarakam or Magic Mirrors. Use Power Charge and Mind Charge to attack the boss, and put the party on Manual control to make sure they use those attacks. Boost your attacks with Matarukaja and Rakunda. Sukunda and Masukukaja are also excellent at preventing attacks from hitting you. Once you've knocked off a third of his HP, the boss will begin to use Nebula Oculus. This hits everyone in the party for about 200 HP of damage. Cast Mediarahan every turn, and eat some Soul Foods when your SP gets low. Continue attacking until you've chipped away half of his health, at which point he'll use Bewildering Fog and begin storing up energy for a powerful attack against you. Make sure everyone's Manually controlled, and have them all Guard until the powerful attack comes. In the meantime, you should also be casting Dekaja on Ameno-sagiri to remove the buffs he gives himself. When Ameno-sagiri's health reaches critically low levels, he'll use Quake to damage characters for 150 HP. This attack can also knock someone down. Prevent this by using Sukunda and Masukukaja. When he starts storing up power again, remember to Guard, then go back on the offensive once the attack has been executed. Continue using these strategies until the Ameno-sagiri is no more! The game will now jump to the evening of 12/23 if you defeated Ameno-sagiri before 12/22, or the next day if you defeated him on 12/23 or 12/24. 12/9 Pop quiz: answer "Insects" for a Knowledge boost. After school, the Emperor, Lovers, Magician, Hermit, Moon, Temperance, Hanged Man, and Fortune links are available. The Devil link is available in the evening. 12/10 Pop quiz: answer "The 'big' toe" for a Knowledge boost. The Chariot, Temperance, Strength, Hermit, and Priestess links are available today.

After school, the Hanged Man, Moon, Fortune, Emperor, Hermit, and Magician (last chance to boost this link) links are available, as is Devil in the evening. 12/22 Today is the deadline for capturing the suspect from the final dungeon and receiving the special Christmas scene. If you don't do this today, then you won't see this scene. After school you'll have the final chance to boost your Sun, Hanged Man, Moon, Emperor, and Strength Social Links. The Hermit link is also available. In the evening, you'll have your last chance to boost your Tower link. 12/23 In the daytime you'll have the final chance to boost your Temperance and Death links. The Hermit link is also available. In the evening you'll have your last chance to boost your Devil link. If you captured the suspect before the evening of the 22nd, the special Christmas scene will take place tonight. In this scene, you will receive a text from the person you're closest to, asking you to spend Christmas Eve with them. Accept and you'll jump to the evening of the 24th and receive an accessory from that person. 12/24 Today is the deadline for capturing the suspect, or it's Game Over for you. After school, you'll have your last chance to boost your Hermit link. 12/25 12/25 Watch the ending scenes! If you're on the path to the Good Ending, you'll then jump to March of the following year, in the Epilogue. Epilogue 3/20/2012 Today you can go talk to any character you have a maxed Social Link with. Use this list to see where they can be found. Magician: At Junes. Priestess: Take the bus from the Shopping District to the Amagi Inn. Empress: In front of the Velvet Room door in the Shopping District. Emperor: In front of the Dye store in the Shopping District. Hierophant: In front of Dojima's house. Lovers: In front of Rise's mother's Tofu store in the Shopping District. Chariot: In front of the Bookstore. Justice: Nanako can be found in front of her house. Hermit: At the Shrine in the Shopping District. Fortune: On the 1st floor hallway of the school. Strength: At the Aiya Restaurant in the Shopping District. Hanged Man: In front of the Liquor Store in the Shopping District. Death: At the Riverbank's edge. Temperance: Take the bus from the Shopping District to the hill above the town. Devil: Take the bus from the Shopping District to the Hospital. Tower: In front of the Shiroku store in the Shopping Disctrict. Star: If you've maxed out your Magician link, Teddie will be at the Food Court in Junes. If not, then he'll be in front of the Shiroku store in the Shopping District. Moon: In the lobby of the school. Sun (Music): In the school's Music Room. Sun (Drama): In the school's Drama Club Room. You'll be asked to go to your house now. Go there if you want to see the Normal Ending. If, on the other hand, you wish to see the game's True Ending, go to Junes and check the elevator. You'll be asked if you want to go home. Say "No," then check the elevator again. Say "I'm not finished yet," then say "Yes." Watch the event that follows, then head to the Floodplain. Speak to Dojima and Nanako, then head to the Velvet Room. Igor will give you the Orb of Sight (unless this is your Second Cycle, in which case you'll get something else). Now speak to the man in front of the Shopping District's Gas Station. Enter the TV World now and you'll see that a new dungeon is available. Note that once you enter the TV World, you cannot return to the real world! Here in the TV World, you can revisit old dungeons and have a discount at the Weapon and Dry Goods store. Talk to Teddie when you're ready to access the new dungeon, Yomotsu Hirasaka. Yomotsu Hirasaka This dungeon has nine floors, with bosses on the 3rd, 6th, and 9th floors. If for some unearthly reason Rise has not learned Relaxing Wave by now, make sure she's learned it before you attempt this dungeon! In the center of the 3rd floor, you'll face your first boss, the Neo Minotaur. Boss: Neo Minotaur HP: 4,240 • Suggested Level: 80 Bring along a Persona that can resist physical attacks and you've got it made in the shade here. Boost some elemental attacks to take him out quickly, and use Mediarahan after he uses a Rampage attack to keep your HP up. Proceed to the 6th floor to take on the next boss, the Sleeping Table. Boss: Sleeping Table HP: 2,000 • Suggested Level: 82 If you've played Persona 3, then you know this boss, and are predisposed to hate it. And yes, you'll hate it here, too. Use a Persona that protects against fire and light attacks, and have some Homunculus items to further boost your protection. Use Amrita to cure anyone affected by its Evil Smile as quickly as you can, because the boss can use Ghastly Wail to kill any Frightened teammate. Have a Bravery Vessel equipped on the Protagonist is a smart idea. Use your strongest attacks except light and dark skills to take the Sleeping Table down. Now make the final trek to the 9th floor, where you'll face the final boss of the dungeon, Izanami. Final Boss: Izanami/Izanami-no-Okami Izanami - HP: 3,500 • Izanami-no-Okami - HP: 8,000 • Suggested Level: 84 Izanami You'll want to make sure you have all your teammates' weaknesses covered for this battle; better yet, just use characters with no weaknesses at all. Use Mediarahan or salvation to heal fully every turn, as Izanami's attacks can be quite hard-hitting, in the 200-300 HP range. When she uses Mind Charge, have everyone in the party Guard on the next turn, and heal up after the devastating attack. Once Izanami's health is at critical levels, she'll keep reviving with 1 HP. You need to just keep attacking her and survive a few more rounds until the Orb of Sight transforms Izanami into her final form... Izanami-no-Okami Use a Soma to get everyone back to 100%. The boss gets two actions per round, and she'll use Mind Charge often, so Guard whenever she does. Use Dekunda if she uses Marakunda to lower your defenses. Periodically, you should cast Sukunda and/or Masukukaja to boost your evade rate, and use Personae that blocks lightning attacks. Use Fire, Ice, and Wind skills against Izanami-no-Okami, and don't bother with physical attacks at all, as they're too weak. Once the boss's HP drops below the 50% mark, she'll begin to use Galgalim Eyes (reduces your HP to 1) and Debilitate, as well as an attack that cuts off half your teammates' HP. Use Dekunda to counter the effects of Debilitate, and heal up your critical character after Galgalim Eyes with Salvation or Mediarahan. Once Izanami-no-Okami's HP drops to near-zero, she'll try to remove the Protagonist from the battle with a skill that triggers a cutscene. You are now invincible and can use the Myriad Truth skill to finish off Izanami-no-Okami!
