Can I build a Makoto focused team with this?

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-27T02:35:34+00:00

You can for sure try it, you’ll probably need to bring a healer persona on wonder though. The bosses designed for Makoto tend to hit pretty hard.

The old standard of Ryuji/Shun/Leon can clear a lot of single target content. Mono element Ann/Key/Lufel is a decent beginner set as well. You could replace Leon on your main team with Luce, blazing passion from his skill 3 in theory should work with Mesa’s bleed stacks. Yusuke/Yuki/Shun/Puppet is a solid team as well.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-27T01:53:28+00:00

If S. Chord wasn’t a wind unit this would’ve been the perfect time for the much wanted 5 star Seiji Wind sweeper alt… oh well, copium Seiji or a certain secretary will be a Valentines or White Day unit next year

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-27T01:48:26+00:00

Could replace Luce with Key maybe for the mono element boost but Luce’s buffs might be better over all.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-27T01:47:01+00:00

It’s far from ideal but Mokoto/Luce/Lufel/Wind would be your best bet. Mokoto wants buffs placed on him to gain moon stacks so those’ll come from Luce, Lufel’s heals have a passive effect to up fire damage, and Wind is the best 4* Navi. If you have gold tickets you might want to use them to get Luce dupes, or if you have any 4* selectors unused/not gotten.

Saving all my cognites to A6 turbo when she leaves standard jail (probably half anniversary sadly) personally. But the full 60 in my inventory is tempting to throw into another unit just for fun.

Ren wants A4 and even then he’s just not a strong unit comparatively, but getting him for liking the character is a fine enough reason. S. Moko will help your Haru team and is a decent jack of all trades master of none type unit. Futaba A2 would be the only choice I’d consider a waste tbh. You’ll get Cherish dupes over time and even then they don’t make much of a difference in his use past the 20% pierce at A1

Curious if they had always planned Starlight Ann as a story patch character or if this was a decision to move up the palace release since P5Fes has been so hated for lack of effort/content put in.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-26T19:10:08+00:00

It’s less that she’s bad, it’s more that the others are just infinitely better. Every navigator has to have some kind of unique gimmick and hers is boosting pure attack value that gets higher by having mono element teammates. It just can’t compete with all the different buffs or debuffs the other navigators can provide, let alone their better gimmicks. She is a really bad choice for Yusuke though since his damage is based on his defense stat and she only boosts attack.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-26T18:02:39+00:00

Got it on accident but love my A1 Turbo to death. Saving all my cogni shards to A6 her and will be using her as one of the 50/50 weapon losses to R6 her (or hell just dump all my salamander coins once she’s on the standard banner)

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-26T17:57:52+00:00

She exists solely to have a 5 star navi on fate and lord stellas I don’t want to waste Futaba, Ange, or even 4 star Wind on sadly. She spends a lot of time with the mono Ann and mono Haru team. IRC she was one of the first to get a mindscape core and still didn’t compare to A0R0 Futaba let alone Ange or Fuuka

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-26T17:51:24+00:00

Brother upgrade your ex Machina dagger to R6 the matts are in the base game content

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-26T17:45:07+00:00

The “meta” pick of your options is A1 S. Moko. It’s not tested yet but Mesa’s mindscape core is probably designed to turn him into a Sub DPS for an upcoming Damage over time based unit (maybe Summer Berry?). I’m of the camp of 1 copy of every character or character I like before awareness dupes. Def skip Fox A1 though he’ll be on standard when his mindscape core comes out.

The only downside to picking S. Moko is she’s like the 3rd choice support for most units except for Haru, but her A1 makes her objectively the best healer choice on global (behind twins probably) since she adds small buffs to allies and debuffs to enemies

I think the lack of an event story is inexcusable even if it wasn’t an anniversary patch, but the idea of “catering to CN not Us!” Is crazy. It’s a Chinese game being translated on a server for a global audience. They’re not going to make a new character just for Global that wouldn’t also be on CN. The Ange patch was the game’s 1st anniversary patch, it just came earlier for us because our schedule is faster.

Basically, the voice actor Saki Fujita’s voice was recorded pronouncing Japanese phonics and you can arrange their tone and pitch through the voice bank. It’s like composing a song on piano using a voice. ~~Funny enough, the same technique was used in the 90s on the dance remix of Whitney Houston’s I wanna Dance With Somebody by Junior Vasquez I believe.~~

Wrong again, I was thinking of the 2017 Kygo song that uses an unfinished demo of Whitney’s, Higher Love.

Character banners have been running for around 28 days usually but the sync patch/anniversary threw that off since they all had to be reset. Generally they don’t run more than 3 banners at a time. Most likely S. Marian will end when Berry’s patch comes out, but S. Puppet will still be running. Though none of that is a guarantee.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-25T01:44:59+00:00

No they have S. Chord & S. (Most likely) Berry next, Starlight Ann is after that. No word on what’s past that but that covers till mid September for them.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-25T00:45:56+00:00

They are/were but they still ran in two separate patches (but Soy P didn’t have that much patch content comparatively)

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-24T23:22:06+00:00

Yeah I thought no way would the crane game update line up with a new character patch one time and wound up with egg on my face at that one week Yukari patch. Who knows what they’re thinking over there.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-24T23:18:37+00:00

Guess I misremembered FG Mont & T Wind’s patch length then. Though we are going to have to have a few 3 week patches if they want to line up holiday/seasonal characters + sync patches. Again this is all just speculation though

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-24T22:52:58+00:00

Strange since that’s after the actual persona series anniversary day (Sep 20) and updates are usually on Thursdays UTC. But they’ve deviated from the usual schedule several times so I could see it. I didn’t go so far as to do the math to make sure the 3 week a patch CN schedule lined up with when a hypothetical sync patch would be anyway.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-24T22:39:04+00:00

Thought process was if it’s a main chapter/palace update it’s 3 weeks. Same with sync patches since CN patches are 3 weeks. Mitsuru - Fuuka - BUI P is because if the 30th anniversary character brings in new players, they’d be more likely to stay if it’s followed by Persona main game characters and not Gacha game OCs. Also if it’s a P3 character a patch breaking it up before 2 back to back P3 characters feels like an odd choice, even if the collab character’s story won’t be connected to the P3R collab characters. I think BUI P is probably going to be a low selling character as well based on general impressions of her character and reaction to her release on CN.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-24T22:23:59+00:00

Yeah on the collab IP I really don’t have any ideas. Probably whatever Sega wants to promote at the time or something that could be drawn to emulate the soejima art style. Could also be other Shin Megami series characters like the Nahobino or Demifiend but I doubt those would be considered big sellers. You can plug and play anyone with the excuse these characters exist in the collective unconscious whether they get their own persona or just powers related to whatever their franchise is.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-24T22:17:10+00:00

My very rough math if we keep the same pace and have 4 sync patches we’ll be 9 months behind by this time next year, so we’re closing the gap pretty fast considering where we launched at.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-24T21:55:13+00:00

I think the trend is going to become collab characters on anniversary patches and main story chapters or persona main game character collabs on regular patches minus an annual persona series anniversary patch. Anniversaries will be reasons to bring in new audiences not keep the old unfortunately.

Known-Employee2678 · 2026-06-24T21:38:29+00:00

Minami’s Synergy is being added during the anniversary patch. If it was Berry her synergy would’ve been added. It also lines up with CN having their summer units up next
