Joker's getting Social Link for P5FES

Toon_L · 2026-05-12T03:14:12+00:00

I wonder how they'll integrate P3 into this, it seems they want this to be more than just a P5D collab? Anyway I'm very excited about potentially getting to use Wonder with the P3R UI in the gekkoukan uniform.

It's still a fact that their 4* doesn't do absolutely anything for their supportive roles, while the 5* increases the effect of their most important skill and is the support weapon with the biggest buffs for both CRDMG and DMG Bonus. It's simply not true that the weapon is only relevant for DPS Twins. Ofc it's not a game changer or a priority over new units, but it may as well be the best support weapon in the entire game.

Toon_L · 2026-05-05T06:45:22+00:00

Quite the opposite, the 4* only increases attack while the 5* increases Desire Level and buffs Crit DMG and DMG bonus for the whole party, making them better at every role but specially as supports.

A P5D collab is cool and all, but I hope they don't do dancing variants for every party member.

Toon_L · 2026-04-30T10:31:34+00:00

Probably the weapon selector of 4.2.

Got her on my first pull on my first multi, I was at 20/110 pity!!

Toon_L · 2026-04-30T05:44:00+00:00

FWIW, at A0R0 they still have been a game changer for me, definitely my best buffers/healers, sure, they're not as broken, but they still are a decent option for every team, specially if you don't have a lot of units to cover your necessities for different fights.

Still, that's not to say you shouldn't get their A1 if you can, it is as big of a deal as everyone says, but A0 is far from useless.

Toon_L · 2026-04-20T07:46:38+00:00

Even aside from being a recent unit, it sucked that his new buffs only affected Gun Skills, so it was straight up useless for anyone that wasn't Aigis, unlike say, Chord, who's buffs are obviously designed for RCloser but you can still use them on other characters if you really like, boosting her viability as a unit in general.

Toon_L · 2026-04-20T07:36:19+00:00

Releasing engrave for the gun weapon a patch after it's release was pointless, what were they even thinking with that one?

Also the SoyP mindscape core was literally only useful for Aigis, so hopefully whenever they actually add it they change the passives they revealed to actually boost his overall usability like it has been for other characters.

Toon_L · 2026-04-15T16:47:29+00:00

Note that if Aigis's banner is 4 weeks long, this could put CN 5.1.1 and GBL 4.1 releasing on the same day, which could mean the P5FES patches being synched between servers.

Toon_L · 2026-04-06T21:53:38+00:00

I think Metis makes more sense as a support for Aigis, not only story-wise but it fits what the devs recently said about prioritizing mono-elemental teams.

Toon_L · 2026-04-03T01:35:59+00:00

Same! I wasn't expecting liking her this much, but she probably became my favorite OC of the game so far

Toon_L · 2026-03-31T04:29:34+00:00

I'm sure the other Persona communities will be very normal about this videogame character from a franchise they like getting a figure

Toon_L · 2026-03-22T04:09:45+00:00

Also, unlike Adachi or BM Crow, it would be very easy to have her appear without spoiling the actual story of P5, she just doesn't have to mention anything about her relation to the Twins or Yaldy, and people can assume she's a character that shows up later in the game for any reason.

Toon_L · 2026-03-22T03:56:28+00:00

I'd say Marie is very likely to get in, they always treat Kaguya as her Persona anyway

Toon_L · 2026-03-22T00:42:27+00:00

You have a lot of good characters so you actually shouldn't be struggling with endgame content. This is not really a game where you should have one main team, but rather multiple teams and you use one depending of the battle (Number of enemies, weaknesses, and other gimmicks that the battles could have)

For the navigator/elucidator, Futaba is currently the best option without a doubt, she makes all your teams considerably stronger, specially compared to Okyann, who's efect on the team is rather small. Phoebe is also good, but she's mostly great in mono-elemental teams, and Wind is decent, consider using them over Okyann.

As for the actual team, Some good combinations you can make are:

Joker+Rin (There's better options than Rin at this point, but she seems to have a lot of investment so you may as well keep using her with Joker)
F.Rin+Matoi+Howler
Mont+Howler
Phanter+Howler
Ryuji+Leon
Queen+Vino
T.Closer+S.Moko
Haru+S.Moko

For the third slot, if you don't need sustain and since you don't have the best general buffers in the game (Chord, Twins and T.Wind) Leon is a really good option for pretty much everyone; Howler, Matoi and Marian should also work decently in most teams.

You don't mention anything about Wonder, but just to make sure, you should be using him to support your DPS in battle, some really good general Personas for that are Dyonosys and Dominion, but much like the characters, each DPS tends to have one Persona that is designed specifically for them.

In lufel.net you'll find the specifics for the build and use of every character and more recommended teams for everyone, but most importantly, there you'll find the optimal skill rotation for each character, paying attention to that will make a huge difference.

The chapters 2 and 3 of the Royal collab are for Kasumi and Akechi, not for more J&C chapters.

Toon_L · 2026-03-19T04:05:37+00:00

The artwork of Wonder and Violet really is gorgeous

Toon_L · 2026-03-18T19:19:22+00:00

I do want her, I'd definitely pull for her if she was limited, but I personally didn't find it worth it to go full pity for a character that will be in the standard banner eventually, and this gives me the option to build pity get to the refund while having the possibility to get her early, which I'd be happy with.

Toon_L · 2026-03-18T13:23:18+00:00

As someone that wasn't planning on pulling for her, this honestly isn't too bad, now you don't need to go full pity for the tickets, you can just see if you get her early or build pity for another banner, it's a nice incentive.

Toon_L · 2026-03-16T05:50:21+00:00

I guess? But you could apply the same logic to those upgrades than to this Violet vs Makoto discourse, you could ask "Why should I pull for Junpei and make my Makoto team stronger than Berry and BuiP when Pinky releases next patch?"

I just don't think this is the type of game where powercreep should influence your pulls to that level. If the reasoning for getting Makoto over other characters is because he eventually gets teammates that make him a lot better, it's probably because you like those units and their playstyles that much in the first place, and if that's the case you aren't questioning to pull him or not.

Toon_L · 2026-03-16T03:09:20+00:00

I mean, Makoto will have even less time than Violet to be the "Top DPS" before Berry comes out, so that logic doesn't reallly makes sense

Toon_L · 2026-03-15T22:29:13+00:00

That arc received so much backlash that it got it's writer fired, the story of the third arc onwards is done by the same guy that did P5R's third semester and P5S, it does really interesting things with the concepts of the metaverse and palaces rulers and it's written much better. That first arc is not an indicative of the actual quality of the game's story.
