Before going into the guide

Before going into the guide
I want you to know that:
I tried to make this as spoiler free as possible by obviously warning and blacking out every spoiler in the guide
The big ones are the main reason why I started this guide in the first place and they will have their own sections further down. Persona 4 Golden is quite an old game and has countless of guides on the internet. Still. I had to check a lot of guides and Forums and what not to finally understand certain achievements. This guide is heavlily influenced by my own experiences with the game and a lot of researching during my playthroughs
These are the somwhat big ones:
Welcome Back [hidden]
The Truth In Your Hands [hidden]
Fishing Master
The Reaper Becomes the Reaped
Compulsive Reader
Legend of Inaba
Thorough Bookkeeper
Hardcore Risette Fan
One Who Has Proven Their Power

This is not a strict guide telling you what to do ON EVERY SINGLE DAY. The problem with those kind of Guides are that you;
1) basically let someone else tell you exactly how to play your game
2) that they seem like you are not allowed to do any kind of mistakes.. which is WRONG. On my second playthrough I have done quite a few mistakes and still got all the achievements at the end. Persona 4 Golden is quite forgiving when it comes to maxing everything. Just read the tipps I give you and you should be fine
3) You might miss on some achievements
Getting all the achievements will take AT LEAST 2 walkthroughs if done right.
Thats why this guide is seperated in walkthroughs showing which achievements you CAN get and which one I RECOMMEND getting in this particular walkthrough. If you have missed any of the ones in the first Playthrough. Don’t panic. You will eventaually get them on your second one.
Persona is an amazing game to play and to enjoy. And the achievements are a great motivation to play the game to its fullest. But even if some achievements are annoying and grindy you should always keep in mind that this is a game to enjoy and have a fun time. I know it sounds stupid to say but this is neither Dark Souls nor a Final Fantasy game. Most of these achievements are achieved by just playing the game and the other ones are much easier to obtain once you know exactly what you are doing (Example: Hardcore Rise Fan, The Reaper Becomes the Reaped, Thorough Bookkeeper, etc.)
Changing the difficulty level of the game during or before the game will not have any influence on the story + endings or the achievemnts. You can play the game in very easy or very hard. This is mainly your decision. For certain achievements you will need to change the difficulty level anyways if you want to make your life easier

How to Copy a Disc to a Computer Hard Drive
By Brendan O’Brien
…
Copy a disc to a computer hard drive.
One of the most convenient–and popular–ways to transfer files from one computer to another is by using a disc. A disc can act as a portable drive that can hold a bunch of files and folders. Once a disc is in a computer drive, you can copy the entire disc to your system. Copying a disc to your hard drive takes about two minutes to complete.

Windows XP Windows Explorer

General Windows
Step 1
Insert the CD into your computer.

Step 2
Click the “Start” button in the lower-left corner of your desktop. Scroll up and click “Control Panel.”

Step 3
Double-click on the icon of the CD drive that contains the disc. Click on the main window.

Step 4
Press your “Control” key and your “A” key on your keyboard at the same time. All of the files will be highlighted. Press your “Control” key and your “C” key on your keyboard at the same time. All of the files will be copied.

Step 5
Right-click on an empty spot on your desktop. Scroll down and select to create a new folder. Type a name for the folder and click the “Enter” key on your keyboard.

Step 6
Double-click on the folder that you just created so it opens. Right-click on an empty spot in the main window. Scroll down and click “Paste.” The contents of the disc will appear in the folder.

Information about the Persona series

Information about the Persona series
WHERE DID THE SERIES COME FROM?
Unraveling the origins of Persona requires jumping through the convoluted evolution of the Megami Tensei franchise, which has spawned such elaborately titled games as Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei, Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers and mess of other JRPGs.

The most direct route you can trace to Persona is from 1994’s Shin Megami Tensei If…, a game about a group of high school students, to development on another supernatural high school story, Revelations: Persona, released in 1996 for PlayStation; it would later come to PSP (and Windows, in Japan). Developer and publisher Atlus eventually rebranded that game to Shin Megami Tensei: Persona with updated content.

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona laid the groundwork for the Persona franchise. It opens with a group of high school students, circa 1996 Japan, playing a “Persona” game. It’s sort of like that old game where you yell “Bloody Mary” a bunch in order to summon a ghost, except in this case, the group gains the power to summon allies called Personas. The game follows a more traditional SMT style of gameplay: turn-based fights in which players can chat with demons encountered in battle, and no social elements to build relationships among characters.

Although this early title looks and plays vastly different from today’s Persona, it established a few series familiars — high school students living in cities and towns inspired by modern-day Japan fighting supernatural forces and achieving extraordinary feats.

Atlus built the sequel, Persona 2: Innocent Sin (1999), in much of the same way. Its main character was a high school student who, along with his friends, was granted the power to use Personas. In addition to overall battle system tweaks, Innocent Sin also introduced a rumor system — appropriate for high school teens — that players could use to influence events. Because Atlus loves its complicated web of games, the developer next released a direct sequel to that sequel called Persona 2: Eternal Punishment (2000). Eternal Punishment is set a few months after its predecessor and follows Maya (also from Innocent Sin) as the lead.

persona 2 eternal punishment
In 2006, Atlus released Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 — a sort of rebirth for the series — for PlayStation 2. Atlus re-released the game as Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES with an additional campaign in 2007, and again for PSP in 2009. Notably, the PSP version did not include the extra campaign, The Answer, but did add the option to play as a female protagonist. Atlus has yet to release a package that includes all these elements, so to get the full Persona 3 experience you have to invest in more than one game.

Persona 3 starred a group of high school students charged with defeating powerful enemies, called Shadows, every full moon. The game was heavy on the social simulation side; players spent their time outside of dungeons bonding with classmates and building different personal skills. We’ll get more into the story and how this all connects — and could connect to Persona 5 — a bit later.

Where the previous games were more like siblings to Shin Megami Tensei games, Persona 3 is the first time the franchise felt unique — not only from its predecessors, but from other games in the genre as well. The introduction of a calendar tracking the course of an entire year, along with a new emphasis on social interaction, brought an impressive depth to Persona 3’s story. Persona 3 is a 70-plus-hour experience, easy, but it rewards players patient enough to dig into its world.

In 2008, Atlus returned with Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 for PlayStation 2 — another tale of high schoolers with extraordinary abilities. This time around, players spent a year in a small town investigating several mysterious murders. It too got an expanded re-release with Persona 4 Golden (dropping the SMT branding altogether) arriving on PlayStation Vita stateside in 2012.

Although Persona 3 and its variations were well-received upon release, Persona 4 remains the more critically successful of the two. It doesn’t just echo the gameplay experience laid out by Persona 3, but actively improves on it. Combat and dungeon crawling are tighter; characters are written with more confidence; and the game has more style and color than those that came before it. With Persona 4 Golden, the definitive edition of the game, Atlus further tweaked its already successful formula with additional content and storytelling.

The connections between the Persona games are a little twisted, as many of these games are not exactly direct sequels, but they often feature cameos or references to characters or happenings from past games. And over the series’ history, Atlus has also developed several spinoff games that continue the stories of Persona 3 and 4’s characters. These spinoffs are unlikely to have any major impact on Persona 5 — and none of them follow the standard setup of the main series — but we’ll get to them later.

persona 3
Persona 5 is due out in Japan this week and set to arrive in North America on Feb. 14, 2017. The game is launching for both PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4, making it the first entry in the main series to hit both systems at launch. Given what we already know about the game, it appears to be following in the footsteps of P3 and P4.

WHAT’S A PERSONA?
The franchise explains Personas as manifestations of the characters’ personalities — more specifically, they’re described as a mask each character wears in the face of hardship. If this concept rings a bell, you might be familiar with psychiatrist Carl Jung. Jung, whose work was popular in the early 1900s, explored this theory extensively. In fact, the Persona series is rife with references and ideas — Personas, Shadows, even characters — taken directly from Jungian psychology. Jung considered the shadow, for example, the unconscious aspect of one’s personality, a concept that has a lot of negative connotation. In the Persona series, Shadows are major foes.

Characters rely heavily on their Personas in battle, using them to perform more powerful attacks. In the early days of the series, characters could equip multiple Personas in battle; later games restricted players to the game’s protagonist. The ability to summon a Persona at all, however, is a mark of special individuals, typically limited to a core cast that varies with each title. In Persona 3, these individuals were able to function during the game’s mysterious “Dark Hour,” a time during which Shadows roam freely. Persona 4, meanwhile, needed each character to confront their “shadow shelves” while present in the game’s Shadow-filled TV world. These protagonists also had the power to create new Personas through fusion — combining existing Personas into something new.

Even the act of summoning one’s Persona is part of each game’s personality. In Persona 3, a game that dealt with themes like death, depression and loss (and some clear gun control issues), characters used an Evoker … which was basically a special gun they shot themselves in the head with. It’s some dark ♥♥♥♥. In Persona 4, which was notably more, uh, upbeat, characters used tarot cards. Persona 5’s summoning takes the series’ Jungian themes to an even more overt level than ever before: Characters rip actual masks off of their actual faces. It looks pretty brutal.

Rewatching the Persona 5 trailer. Missed the part where they RIP OFF part of their faces to

Personas are powerful allies throughout the series, but their presence is not always positive. The series has established that users can lose control of their Persona, often leading to dire consequences; this is especially true if and when Personas are awakened unnaturally. In fact, Personas are actually Shadows that — once more

Information about your party members

Information about your party members
Just as I did for P5R, I thought I’d make a post going over the builds/skill sets I had for each party member in P4G at the end of my first playthrough (these were on Vita), and talk about each character a bit.

Yosuke
Compared to most of the other members, Yosuke is well balanced in both Phys and Magic. His supports of Masukukaja/Youthful Wind and Dekaja can prove useful at multiple points, especially against Golden Hands, who like to boost their evasion. The lack of Power/Mind Charge puts him a bit below the other members in boss fights, but he’s still solid overall.
S. Link Skills: Trafuri, Dekaja, Auto-Sukukaja, Diarama, Evade Elec
Bike Skills: Confuse Boost, Megido, Green Wall, Makara Break, Diarahan

chie
For Chie, I went strictly with Phys skills for her, as the best Ice move she learns normally is Bufula and she only gets Ice Boost (no Amp). After 5 Bike Rides, she does learn Bufudyne, but I didn’t think it was worth it (at least on a 1st playthrough). Bufula could be kept instead of High Counter here. So I stuck with God’s Hand/Agneyastra, and her critical buffing skills of Revolution and Apt Pupil. Dragon Hustle (party Heat Riser) is a great 3rd tier skill, despite it costing 150 SP. Due to Chie’s low SP pool, it’d prob be worth equipping the Chakra Ring (halves SP cost of skills, can be found after beating the 6th Dungeon optional boss) when using that move.
S. Link Skills: Rebellion, Ice Boost, Revolution, Bufula, Evade Fire
Bike Skills: Hama, Mind Slice, Hamaon, Tetra Break, Bufudyne

yukiko
As these builds are from my first playthrough, I didn’t have the chance to take Yukiko on 5 Bike rides, but Mind Charge is definitely worth doing that (it would replace Mediarahan here). With Burning Petals (Severe Fire damage to all), Yukiko can actually come close to Yu in terms of magic damage. She’s also a great healer to have in the party, and prior to learning Mediarahan/Salvation, Divine Grace and Amrita are good skills to keep on her.
S. Link Skills: Mudo, Divine Grace, Amrita, Mudoon, Evade Ice
Bike Skills: Valiant Dance, Matarunda, Red Wall, Spirit Drain, Mind Charge

Kanji
Kanji just hits hard. Even though he only learns single-target Phys skills by level up, I used him more than Chie, as he’s stronger and bosses tend to only require single-target anyway (though Chie is good for dungeons because she gets Apt Pupil). Given that Kanji favors Phys skills, Regenerate 3 was chosen over Elec Boost. Before learning The Man’s Way (Chance of causing Down and Dizzy to all), I kept Masukunda for the whole time prior.
S. Link Skills: Dizzy Boost, Masukunda, Power Charge, Regenerate 3, Evade Wind
Bike Skills: Media, Atom Smasher, Blue Wall, Fast Heal, Mediarama

Teddie
Teddie is the second healer of the group and he gets the Ice skills that Chie doesn’t. I tended to use Yukiko over Teddie for healing, because Yukiko learns Divine Grace naturally, but an accessory named Blessed Hands (from Tanaka’s Amazing Commodities) can be equipped for Teddie to have Divine Grace as well. Despite being a bit overshadowed by Yukiko, having Teddie in the same party as Yukiko can let her focus on attacking instead of healing, leaving Teddie to be the heal/support member, which he isn’t that bad at. Kamui Miracle, Teddie’s 3rd Tier skill, can replace one of these moves (if you like RNG).S. Link Skills: Auto-Rakukaja, Recarm, Marakunda, Samarecarm, Evade Elec
Bike Skills: Dekunda, Life Drain, Mustard Bomb, White Wall, Evade Physical

Naoto
Naoto’s really a character that gets too many good skills. She gets the 4 high tier Elementals, both multi-target Insta-Kills, Megidolaon, Vorpal Blade/Myriad Arrows, Tetrakarn/Makarakarn and even Angelic Grace. With the number of skills she learns, I don’t think there’s an ‘optimal’ Naoto build, it kinda comes down to personal preference.
I went with Mahamaon and Mamudoon (along with Hama/Mudo Boost) for clearing mobs, and Mind Charge+Megidolaon for boss fights. I preferred using the insta-kill moves with Naoto, but keeping the elemental skills isn’t bad either. Shield of Justice (Shields the party from all damage once) costs 160 SP and is too niche to be used often outside of Super Boss fights, so it could be replaced with something else (I had Invigorate 3 prior).
S. Link Skills: Invigorate 1, Mind Charge, Invigorate 2, Heat Riser, Invigorate 3
Bike Skills: Bufudyne, Ziodyne, Tetraja, Myriad Arrows, Angelic Grace

Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment for Every Character

Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment for Every Character
This Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment Guide will teach you where to obtain all the best equipment for every character in Persona 4 Golden.

If you’re playing Persona 4 Golden, now available on Steam, you’re going to want to know what all of the best equipment is in Persona 4 Golden and where to obtain the best equipment for every character. This Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment Guide will help you do just that.

Protagonist – Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment
persona 4 golden best equipment main character
Best Weapon: Blade of Totsuka
Best Armor: Godly Robe
Best Accessory: God’s Love/Space Badge
The Blade of Tostsuka comes from killing the Reaper. It dramatically increases Yu’s critical hit rate. No other weapons on the Hero come close or have any useful secondary effects that might make them a better choice.

The Godly Robe also comes from the Reaper. It increases all stat by 10.

While most character get a lot of use out of the Omnipotent Orb, it’s unlikely you’ll want to use this item on your main character, since if you’re using a top tier Persona like Yoshitsune you’re already almost certainly immune to most, if not all, damage, making the Omnipotent Orb fairly pointless.

In fact, the versatility of the Protagonist’s Personas makes most high-end accessories redundant. God’s Love (All Stats +10) is probably the best accessory for the hero, but even that becomes useless once your Persona stats exceed 79 in any category. At that point you might want to equip a Space Badge (+6% HP recovered every round).

God’s Love is found in locked Golden Chests in Yomotsu Hirasaka. Space Badge is found in locked chests in Magatsu Inaba and Yomotsu Hirasaka.

Yosuke – Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment
persona 4 golden best equipment yosuke
Best Weapon: Malakh
Best Armor: Godly Robe
Best Accessory: Omnipotent Orb / Shinatobe Vow / God’s Love
Malakh is obtained by defeating the Reaper with Yosuke in the party. They grant him triple the normal chance of evading physical attacks.

However, you could make an argument that Fuuma Kotarou is better (+5 Magic) if you’re not using Yosuke’s physical attacks or skills and are exclusively using Wind Magic. Fuuma Kotaru is bought from Daidara after selling him 4 Nightmare Sands, which are dropped by Infinite Sands in Magatsu Inaba Floor 1-2.

Godly Robe is dropped by the Reaper after obtaining the Reaper weapons for all active party members.

Omnipotent Orb is dropped by the Reaper very rarely after obtaining the Reaper weapons for all active party members.

However, the Shinatobe Vow (+50% Wind Damage) may be a better option if you’re looking for more damage from Yosuke. Shinatobe Vow allows you to remove Wind Boost from your Yosuke build and still reach the +100% magic damage cap. Wind Amp + Shinatobe Vow gives more damage than Wind Amp + Wind Boost and also frees up a skill slot.

God’s Love (+10 All Stats) is another accessory option.

Shinatobe Vow and God’s Love are found in locked Golden Chests in Yomotsu Hirasaka.

Chie – Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment
persona 4 golden best equipment chie
Best Weapon: Moses Sandals
Best Armor: Godly Robe
Best Accessory: Omnipotent Orb / God’s Love / Space Badge / Rudra Ring / Chakra Ring
Moses Sandals are found by defeating the Reaper with Chie in the party. They dramatically increase critical hit rate. No other weapons come close. However, it should be noted that they look really, really stupid.

Godly Robe is found by defeating the Reaper after every active party member has already received their Reaper weapon.

Omnipotent Orb is rarely dropped by the Reaper after every active party member has already received their Reaper weapon.

Chakra Ring may be a good idea for Chie because it halves SP costs and her incredibly useful Dragon Hustle skill costs an insane amount of SP (150). Chakra Ring usually means Chie can cast this skill 3-4 times instead of just once before running out of SP.

God’s Love (+10 All Stats), Space Badge (+6% health recovered every round), Rudra Ring and Chakra Ring are all found in locked Golden Chests in Yomotsu Hirasaka. One Chakra Ring is guaranteed after beating the bonus boss in Heaven. Rudra Ring can be found in locked chests in Magatsu Inaba as well.

Yukiko – Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment
persona 4 golden best equipment yukiko

Best Weapon: Hototogisu
Best Armor: Godly Robe
Best Accessory: Kagatsuchi Vow / God’s Love
Even though Yukiko’s Reaper weapon, Boundless Sea, has more attack than the Hototogisu, since Yukiko is almost exclusively a mage and has weak physical attack anyway, Hototogisu’s +10 Magic is more beneficial than Boundless Sea’s higher attack power and chance of inflicting status effects.

Hototogisu is bought from Daidara’s shop after selling him 4 Love Clasps, which are dropped by Harem Dancers in the Magatsu Mandala floors 4-5.

Godly Robe is dropped by the Reaper after earning all the Reaper weapons for every active party member.

Kagatsuchi Vow (+50% Fire Damage) is most likely Yukiko’s best accessory overall since it gives her the highest damage potential for her spells. However, it’s only available in the very last dungeon and it requires you to give up Fire Boost to get its full effectiveness. Fire Amp + Kagatsuchi Vow gives +100% fire damage.

God’s Love (+10 All Stats) increases damage output less overall but doesn’t require you to build Yukiko’s skillset around it.

God’s Love and Kagatsuchi Vow are both found in locked Golden Chests in Yamatsu Hirasaka.

Kanji – Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment
persona 4 golden best equipment kanji
Best Weapon: Perun Plate
Best Armor: Godly Robe
Best Accessory: Omnipotent Orb / God’s Love / Space Badge / Rudra Ring

Kanji’s best weapon is the Perun Plate, which drops from the Reaper when you have Kanji in your active party. Perun Plate increases Electric Damage by +25%, meaning you don’t need any kind of electric damage boosting accessory on Kanji to get the most out of his spells.

Godly Robe (+10 All Stats) drops from the Reaper once you’ve already received the Reaper weapons for all of your active party members.

Omnipotent Orb rarely drops from the Reaper once you’ve already received the Reaper weapons for each of your active party members.

God’s Love (+10 All Stats) and Space Badge (+6% health restored each round) are found in locked Golden Chests in Yamatsu Hirasaka. Rudra Ring (half HP cost for physical skills) is found in locked chests in both Yamatsu Hirasaka and Magatsu Inaba.

Teddie – Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment
persona 4 golden best equipment teddie
Best Weapon: Seireiga / ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Jakotsu
Best Armor: Godly Robe
Best Accessory: Omnipotent Orb
Seireiga is dropped by the Reaper with Teddie in your active party. It decreases all magic damage received by 30%.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Jakotsu is his second best weapon, but it has +4 magic, which may be more useful overall if you’re using Teddie’s magic more often than his physical attacks or if you’re using the Omnipotent Orb, which makes the damage mitigation on hte Seireiga moot.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Jakotsu is bought from Daidara after selling him 10 Mysterious Eyes, which are dropped by Acheron Seekers on the 7th floor of Yomotosu Hirasaka.

Godly Robe is dropped by the Reaper after receiving all the Reaper weapons for your active party.

Omnipotent Orb (nullifies all damage except Almighty) is dropped by the Reaper rarely after receiving all the Reaper weapons for your active party.

You could argue that Teddie, like Yosuke or Yukiko can get more use out of a God’s Love or his elemental damage item (Kuraokami Vow), but Teddie is mostly set up to be a support character, so the survivability provided by the Omnipotent Orb is probably more important. Still, you could equip him with a Kuraokami pin to increase his ice damage.

Naoto – Persona 4 Golden Best Equipment
persona 4 golden naoto
Best Weapon: Black Hole
Best Armor: Godly Robe
Best Accessory: Omnipotent Orb / God’s Love / Fancy Mini-Car / Hand-Kni

Difficulty guide

Difficulty guide
After a very bright, flashy, animated intro video, you will see the Tltle/Start Menu appear. Here, you will find a few options: selecting New Game will allow you to “begin your adventure,” you may “Adjust various options” in the Config section, or enter the TV Listings section where you can find myriad bonus content (like trailers for older Persona games) that will grow as you progress through Persona 4 Golden. If you already have a save file, the Load Game option will also be available.

Once you have selected New Game, you will be given the choice of 5 difficulty levels: Very Easy, Easy, Normal, Hard, and Very Hard. A blurb pops-up on the screen that tells you choosing one difficulty level over the other will have no adverse affects on the story, merely gameplay. The description for each encourages you to choose the easier difficulty levels if you just want to relax and enjoy the story, or choose the higher levels if you want a challenge.

In Very Easy mode, the amount of money and experience earned is greater per battle (about 5x as much). The damage received is decreased, and the damage you dish out is increased. You may also restart from the beginning of a fight or floor if you die.

In Easy mode, the amount of money and experience earned is normal. The damage received is less and dished out is greater. You may only restart from the beginning of the floor you are currently on if you die.

In Normal mode, the amount of money, experience, and damage is normal. You may restart from the beginning of the floor you are currently on if you die.

In Hard mode, the amount of damage you take is increased, and the amount of damage you dish out is decreased. The experience and money you earn is normal. You may restart from the beginning of the floor you are currently on if you die.

In Very Hard mode, the damage you receive is increased, and the damage you do is decreased. The experience and money you earn is lower than in normal mode (about 0.4x as much). You must load a save if you die.

Warning: you will not be able to change the difficulty setting once you have begun your game. You may only do so once you have finished. In New Game Plus you can change at any time you like in the setting menu.
Select your desired level and get started.

Intro
ADVERTISEMENT

The game begins with a short cutscene that depicts some kind of ethereal limo with a hook-nosed man riding within alongside a blonde woman. This is The Velvet Room, a sort of place not quite reality, but not quite a dream.

The animation ends and the elderly gentleman addresses you.

The Velvet Room
The man introduces himself as Igor and tells you that he will be assisting you. He mentions that only those who have been bound by a “contract” are summoned or may enter the Velvet Room.

You are then asked to enter your last and first name. Use the Left and Right Shoulder buttons to move between the two lines, last name on the top and first on the bottom.

Igor begins to read your fortune from some cards strewn on the table between the three of you. Igor says that there is an upright Tower and Moon indicating terrible catastrophe in your immediate future, hesitation and mystery surround you. He tells you that misfortune is coming your way and that you will soon enter a “contract” and, thus, you will be able to return to the Velvet Room.

Igor tells you that it is his job to help his guests. He turns to the woman next to him and introduces her as Margaret, who tells you that she will accompany you on your journey over the next year.

Igor forebodingly tells you that he’ll see you soon and another animated cutscene begins.

The Ride
You, the Protagonist, are on a train bound for Inaba. You awaken — as if from a dreamstate — in a panicked sweat, experiencing a few flashbacks of the Velvet Room and a few images of the life you’re leaving behind– the last day at your old school, etc.

You receive a message on your phone telling you that whoever sent it will meet you at the Yasoinaba station when you arrive. The train ride scene continues until you come to a stop.

Modding Persona 4 The Golden

Modding Persona 4 The Golden
Getting into Persona 4 Golden modding can be daunting at first, but this guide is here for you. We’ve got a step-by-step guide for setting up and installing P4G mods, as well as some resources in case you’d like to make your own!

Before Starting
You will need to download all of these files first:

1.1. Reloaded-II
This tool injects our mod loader into P4G.
Download (Release.zip)
Reloaded-II also uses programs called “mods,” but these aren’t the same as the P4G mods you can download from GameBanana. Don’t put P4G mods into your Reloaded-II folder unless you are specifically downloading a Reloaded-II program!

1.2. P4G Mod Loader (p4gpc.modloader)
This program loads whatever mods are in your Persona 4 Goldenmods folder when you run the game.
Download (release.zip)

2. Setting Up Reloaded-II and P4G Mod Loader
2.1. Extraction and First Run
Extract p4gpc.modloader.7z and place it in the Mods folder located inside your Reloaded-II folder (create one if it doesn’t exist). If you’ve done it correctly, your filepath should look something like this:

When that’s done, launch Reloaded-II.exe as an administrator.
You only need to give R2 administrator permissions the first time you launch it.

Reloaded-II will ask you to download and install up to four prerequisite files. You must install all of them before you can continue.

Reloaded-II may also ask to update p4gpc.modloader. Accept that and let it do its thing.

2.2. Attaching P4G.exe
Once the prerequisites are installed, the first thing we need to do is add P4G as an application.
There are four buttons on the left side of Reloaded-II’s interface. Navigate to the first one (a + icon) and click on it.

A new screen will open up:

Click on “New” and navigate to your copy of P4G.exe.

If you installed P4G within a few hours of the game’s launch, your P4G game directory is
steamappscommonDay.

If you came late to the party, your P4G game directory is
steamappscommonPersona 4 Golden.

Double click P4G.exe when you find it, and you’ll be greeted with the protagonist’s pixelated face (don’t worry, this isn’t an error!):

You should also see P4G appear next to the four icons on the interface.

2.3. Setting Up Steam Hook
Next, click on the Download Mods button, second from the top:

A menu will pop up with many different mods. Find and select reloaded.universal.steamhook and click Download.

Once that completes, click on the Manage Mods button, third from the top:

You will see a list of all the mods R2 has detected. One will be our mod loader, two of them will be built-in R2 programs, and the last one will be Steam Hook.

Click on Steam Hook and enable p4g.exe by clicking on the icon to the left of the text. If you see a red +, you’ve done it right.

Don’t stop now, we’re nearly done!

2.4. Disabling the Console
When the console is enabled, you’ll be able to see what files P4G is accessing as well as what files the mod manager is swapping. However, this can come with a pretty hefty performance penalty, so it’s recommended that you disable the console unless you are asked to turn it on by a mod creator for debugging.

To begin, click the Mod Loader Settings button, fourth from the top (keep in mind that this is referring to Reloaded-II’s settings, not our Mod Loader’s):

There will be a single option named Show Console. Disable it so that it looks like the screenshot below:

With that out of the way, we’re ready to finish up!

2.5. The Protagonist’s Pixelated Dreamy Face
Finally, click on the Protagonist’s Pixelated Dreamy Face.
You’ll see two mods, Mod Loader and Steam Hook. Enable both of them just like you did a moment ago:

Congratulations! You’ve finished setting up the mod loader!

3. Working with Mods
3.1. Discovering and Downloading Mods
You can find P4G mods at a few places around the web:
GameBanana (has the most mods and the most frequent updates)
Amicitia Forums (has a handful of mods and support for modders)
Nexus Mods (has very few mods, but a couple you can’t find anywhere else)

If you don’t know where to start, allow me to shamelessly plug my P4G Fixes + Quality-of-Life Mod Directory. It’s a small collection of mods ranging from essential game patches to the smallest of visual tweaks, all working together to create the definitive P4G experience.

Or, y’know, Obamium. Whatever floats your boat.

3.2. Installing Mods
To install mods, we highly recommend using Aemulus Package Manager.

Click on the link to go to the download page and read instructions.

4. Launching the Game
If you just launch P4G through Steam the normal way, Reloaded-II will not inject the mod loader and your mods will not work. There are three different ways to launch P4G with mods:

4.1. Direct Launch
In Reloaded-II, click on the Protagonist’s Pixelated Dreamy Face and then click “Launch Application.” That’s all you have to do, but it can be a bit annoying to launch R2 every time.

4.2. Desktop Shortcut
In Reloaded-II, click on the Protagonist’s Pixelated Dreamy Face and then click “Create Shortcut.”

A new shortcut will appear on your Desktop named p4g.exe (Reloaded). Feel free to rename it to whatever you like.

Now you can launch the game without having to start up R2 every time!

4.3. Steam Shortcut
This method also works if you are using a third-party launcher client (Playnite, GOG Galaxy, etc.).

In the Steam client, click “Games” at the top of the window and select Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library.

Click Browse and select Reloaded-II.exe wherever you happen to be keeping it.

Right-click the new “game” added to your Steam library and select Properties. Feel free to rename the “game” to whatever you like (“Persona 4 Golden+”, perhaps?) and select Set Launch Options.

Without launch options, launching this in Steam will just launch Reloaded-II, but with an extra argument we can make it load P4G directly. Type in –launch “steam-dirsteamappscommonPersona 4 GoldenP4G.exe”, replacing steam-dir with the path to your Steam directory.

Click OK and then Close, and you’re all set!

5. Making Mods
5.1. Unpacking PAC Files
P4G stores its data in several large archives called PAC files. In order to view and modify the files within them, we need to unpack the PAC files into a format that’s easier to edit. Thanks to our handy mod loader, we don’t even need to repack the files afterward!

We recommend using the program nr2_unpacker.

Once you’ve extracted the unpacker, simply drag the PAC file you want to unpack over nr2_unpacker.exe.

The files will then be unpacked into a directory for you to peruse at your leisure (in this picture, we’ve just finished unpacking data00000.pac):

5.2. Okay, Now What?
For info on how to edit what files, check out this wiki article as well as the links in the FAQ. If you have any questions, you’re welcome to ask about anything in our community Discord server!

6. Troubleshooting & FAQ
6.1. Reloaded-II isn’t starting.
Please, please, please double-check you downloaded and installed all four prerequisites.
Make sure you are starting Reloaded-II as an administrator for the first run.

6.2.
This sound means that you are using Special K and it has crashed. The latest versions of the mod loader do not support Special K and we do not recommend using it.

6.3. How do I make audio mods?
Audio modding has come quite a long way in a short time. Here’s an updated guide.

6.4. How do I make texture mods?
Here’s a guide by our very own Max!

I think this is bugged on my side, since I tried this yesterday and it worked fine, but whenever I go to download mods, it just shows a blank screen that doesn’t load any mods to download.
Bananite

ORLOX avatar ORLOX 3mo
The first step says to extract p4gpc.modloader.7z but that file doesn’t exist in the Reloaded or P4G Mod Loader release zips.
Also, there’s a newer version of the mod loader without a release zip.
TennoSKOOOOOM!!!

P4G Community Enhancement Pack

P4G Community Enhancement Pack (P4G CEP) is an all-in-one collection of tools and mods for the 2020 PC release of Persona 4 Golden.

P4G CEP includes the Aemulus Package Manager program to make customization easy. All of the mods in P4G CEP can be individually enabled or disabled with Aemulus, and it’s easy for users to add additional mods to their loadout without having to manually merge files.

Prerequisites
Cheat Engine
Persona 4 Golden on Steam
Installation
Download and install Cheat Engine (or use the portable version).
Clone or download this repository.
Usage
Launch Persona 4 Golden.
Open Cheat Engine and attach it to the P4G.exe process.
Load the p4g-pc.CT table. If prompted, allow the main table script to run.
Enable the table via the [ENABLE] script at the top.
Table Contents
Cheats
Easy Fishing – Allows you to perform a “Quick-Reel” at any time by pressing the assigned button, without waiting for the prompt. You may still need to read the Expert Fishing book.
Easy Bug Catching – Allows you to perform a perfect catch without waiting for the ! prompt by pressing the assigned catch button.
Super Speed – Set the Speed Factor record to a desired value and freeze. To reset, unfreeze the record and move to a different field (e.g. by quick travelling or changing floors).
Party Stats
Allows you to edit the party’s HP/SP, level, EXP, ailment status, buff status/direction/duration and equipment. Party member levels and EXP are tied to their persona levels and EXP.

Globals
When the Reaper Chest Counter reaches 0x0C (12), the player has opened 20 chests. Opening another chest will raise the value to 0x0D (13) and trigger the chain noise. The next chest will raise the value to 0x0E (14) and trigger the Reaper (or nothing). This value wraps back from 21 to 0.

Set the Has Caught Bugs Today record to 0 to be able to catch bugs more than once per day.

Time
To repeat the current time slot, set Day Time Next to the value in Day Time.

SLinks
To force an SLink to rank up, set the Affinity to a high enough value and trigger the next SLink event.

Item Info
These values determine the availability and status of items in shops. The most useful records are for each material, which list the number of materials sold.

Compendium
You can use the Compendium Unlocker tool to unlock various personas in the compendium. Pressing the UNLOCK ALL button will only unlock personas you haven’t unlocked yet and will not overwrite your saved personas. Pressing the LOCK ALL button will erase the entire compendium, including any personas you’ve already unlocked.

Use the records under the Compendium header to edit individual persona stats.

Card Flags
Flags that indicate which skill cards were registered by the player.

Enepedia
Setting the value of records under this header to FF will reveal all enemy stats in battle.

Trophy Counters
This section allows you to track your trophy/achievement progress.

Note that the Rise Lines counter wraps back to 0 once you’ve heard 256 lines. You can check and edit individual line status using the records under Rise Line Flags.

Hollow Forest
This section contains the secondary inventory that’s copied to the primary inventory during the Hollow Forest dungeon. You should only edit the records in this section while standing in the Hollow Forest “hub”. While inside the actual dungeon, edit the normal/primary inventory section.

Player Name
Edit this if you want to change the Hero’s name. The default encoding is SJIS, but ASCII is also supported. Save your game and load the new save for changes to take effect.

Enemies
This record allows you to edit enemy stats while in battle. Note that these stats are dynamic and are only allocated by the game while in battle.

It’s recommended not to freeze any of the records under this header.

Fishing Master

Fishing Master
Catch the Sea Guardian

You should combine getting this with “Legend of Inaba”. This will be the final Quest of the Hermit Quest Series. It is also recommended to have
Diligence at MAX
read the books: Fishing for Beginners + Experts and the Bughunter Book.

The Sea Guardian is only catchable at Inaba Beach and is the last quest in the Hermit Quest Series.
In order to even be able to catch him you will have to do the Hermit S-Link up to level 9.
Go to “Legend of Inaba” to see a guide

Ok, now that we have that out of the way lets start with some preparation:

First of all you need a Fishing Rod ( you can do this regardless of your current Hermit Level)

Go to the old man at the Riverbank and talk to him. He will talk about his lost fishing hook
Starting at early June you can go to the shrine -> at day time, talk to the kid in green. He will tell you about his lost net
Go to the shrine at night (requires Courage) and talk to the women in white
She will ask you about a goldfish -> Ignore that and answer yes when asked about a boy who has lost his net. She will give you the Net.
Go back to the kid and ask him where to bughunt.
Now go to the tree and do so. *Try to get a perfect timing to get more bugs*
Any bug will do for this though(i hope)
At night time -> Go outside -> into town -> Shopping District South -> Drug Store
You will get the fishing hook from the owner of the shop once entered.
If nothing happend -> Press talk and she will ask you to feed her fishes with a bug
She will give you the lost fishing rod if you accept her request
Now go back to the old man and obtain your first Fishing Rod!

Second Phase:
Get access to the beach. To do so you will need to drive “long rodes” with your motorcycle 2 or 3 times(Second choice)
*Before you can do that you have to unlock Okina City by riding the Motorcycle around the neighboorhood.*
Thats it.

Now comes the third phase. You need to accept the 10th hermit quest.
and you have to catch the River Guardian first before catching the Sea Guardian:

Talk to the Old man at the Riverbank. He is the original Questgiver. He will tell you about the Sea Guardian and that he always wanted to sea it.
Now go to the Beach choose the fishing option. You will realize that your fishing rod is not suitable for the sea
Go back to the old man and talk to him. He will now talk about the River Guardian.
Before moving on make sure to ask him every question about the River Guardian.

How to catch the River Guardian:

Catch the Inaba Jewel Beetle (Bughunting at day and/or night)
Make sure its raining or snowing (save before fishing)
Start fishing and choose the Inaba Jewel Beetle
Now pay close attention to the ripples on the surface of the water. Whenever you see huge splashes going upwards (looks like explosions … You will see it) you can proceed fishing. If not -> Reel in and try again. You can do this as often as you like.
The finishing Mini Game is somewhat self explanatory. Just dont Hold the button as it is stated in the game. Move the arrow and tap the action button whenever the arrow is in the blue area

After catching the River Guardian you can finally catch the Sea Guardian.

Go talk to the old man and show him your newest catch of the day. He will give you the improved fishing rod for the sea
Talk to him again and ask him every question possible
Now you have to bughunt for the Genji Beetle (only available at night times)
Note:
If you cannot find the Genji Beetle after several tries make sure to keep talking to the old man. The Genji Beetle only unlocks by talking to the old man.
Go to the Sea first and start fishing without the genji beetle to hopefully trigger an event with the old man.

How to catch the Sea Guardian:

Make sure its raining or snowing
Go to the Beach
Choose the Genji Beetle
Look for those explosions similar to the River Guardian
Finish the Fishing MIni Game
Thats it. The Achievement should be yours.

Note: If you want to max Hermit Social Link, keep in mind that you will need to call the fox TWICE to actually getting the Link to Level 10.

Achievements [Not hidden and easy to get] Part 1

Achievements [Not hidden and easy to get] Part 1
The Other Self
Obtain the Persona Izanagi

Story related. Cannot be missed
Get your first Persona in the game.

Advantage Mine
Enter a battle with Player Advantage

Shadows are wandering around in dungeons and before entering a battle you can either have the first strke or not. To obtain the advantage-strike and the achievement, you have to hit the back of the shadow with your weapon.

Grasping at Greed
Defeat a Golden Hand

Golden Hands are easy to spot and are present in every dungoen. Once you are close to them they will run away and you will have to hit them with your weapon. Try to enter the battle with an Advantage-Strike but dont let the enemy run into you otherwise he will get the advantage.
Depending on the dungoen they are pretty much resistent to all elemental damage and they will try to get an opening and run away. Try to kill it either with Almighty damage or with strong physical abilites.
Defeating a golden hand will get you this trophy + a ton of money and EXP.

Fashion Plate
Fight a battle in costume

Very early into the game your teacher will call you out at night and hands you a costume. Equip it right away and once you go into battle you should obtain this achievement.

Tipps:
There are a lot of other costumes in the game. A lot of them will be given to you just by progressing in the story.

Other Costumes are buyable goods in Okina City.
A lot of Quests have costumes as rewards.
Whenever you enter the TV talk to the Fox and pet it. It might give you a costume.
When maxing Margarets S-Link -> Ask for another request and she will give your whole team a costume.
A helpful Costume guide if you are interested [gamefaqs.gamespot.com]

A Favor for Marie
Register a Skill Card

Marie is the teenie-girl sitting in the Velvet Room. Her task is similar to the Persona Compendium (more on it in “Persona Shopper”).
Skill cards are what they sound like; Skills in cards. These Cards can be obtained during Shuffle** Times. Skill Cards are those with red Swords. If you have one you can go to the Velvet Room and register a card by clicking “Utilize Skill Cards” -> “Give Skill Card”.
**Shuffle Times are the Cardpicking phases after a won battle

Note:
Registering a Skill Card will remove it from your inventory. But once registered you can buy the skill card whenever you want.
This will be helpful when trying to solve Margarets Quests.

Tactical Fighter
Exploit enemy weaknesses 100 times

Most enemies you encounter will have elemental or physical weaknesses. Whenever you hit the weakspot you see a yellow star showing: WEAK..
Doing this 100 times should be no problem and will be done quite fast in the first walkthrough.

Skilled Commander
Perform 50 All-Out Attacks

When all enemies are down (by hitting a weakspot or a critical hit, etc. ) the camera will rotate and you will be asked if you want to do an All-Out Attack. Confirm the request and enjoy watching the outcome…. 50 times.
Doing this 50 times should be no problem and will be done quite fast in the first walkthrough.

Persona Shopper
Buy a Persona from the Compendium

This is where the Compendium comes into play. You can buy any Persona you registered in the Compendium. Personas found and fused are automatically registered. Go to the Velvet Room and click on “Check Compendium” -> “View Compendium”. The achievement should be unlocked after buying any Persona in the list.

Note:
The Compendium is very useful especially in the late game.
Tipp: Whenever you have leveled a Persona or changed a skill you should register manually.
“Check Compendium” -> “Register Personas”

Displaying Adaptability
Switch Personas 5 times in 1 battle

You can switch a persona during a battle by going to “Persona” and then choosing a persona from the list of persona’s you carry. You can only switch 1 Persona in one turn.

Lucky Me!
Win a prize from the vending machine

At the very end of the Shopping District North where the big street is there should be 2 blue vending machines. By buying an Item from the machine you have a chance of winning a prize. This one is luck based but the chances of winning are not tooo small.

Note:
You only have 5 tries a day.
You can make a save point at the Shopping District South and just keep trying to get the prize. > Reload if you have failed to win anything out of your 5 tries.
You can also just just buy an item on every other day and hope for the best.

Part 2

Part 2
Granter of Your Desires
Buy 5 things from Tanaka’s Amazing Commodities

Starting on (Sunday) 05/29 you can watch the Tanaka show at every week’s Sunday on your own TV(your room)
(Still watchable on following days. Go to your room and the game will inform you that you have not bought anything from the show yet).

Watching the show wont cost you any time. If you have ordered the item you will get it a few days after the purchase. The last possible time to do so is in late January ( I think either 29th or 22th).

Tipps:
Since it does not cost any time you should always check what’s in store.
If you are on your second playthrough (or even at your first playthrough) you should avoid buying any weapons or armory. Pretty disappointing.
Instead you should look out for Items like the goldfish, hugefish, Inaba Trout.
If you are about to do the Hermit quests you have to at least buy one item on the shopping program. Once receiving the item you will get the “Prize Ticket” which will be relevant later on. Any item will do for this.
If you are about to do the the Compulsive Reader achievement you should buy the Inaba Trout (Day: 6/5).

Here a List of all purchasable items[persona4.wikidot.com]

Head of the Class
Rank #1 in your class on an exam

To get this achievement you will need to be ranked first on any exam. Exams are mandatory and cannot be skipped. Depending on the exam the ranking is heavily influenced by your Knowledge level and the amount of questions you answer. The questions on the exams are the same as the ones you were asked during classes. So you should be fine. If you have not managed to get this on your first Playthrough: you will most likely get this on your second one considering you have Knowledge on level 5.

Tipps:
If you are on your way maxing out every S-Link you should always be 1#. It will grant you a bonus on your current S-Level (for your schoolmates only) making it more likely to get to the next level
If you have been granted a high score you should talk to Ryotaro Dojima (Nanako’s Father), and Nanako.

A True Bond
Max out a Social Link

Social Links are an important part of the game. There are a total of 23 S-Links (excluding World).
3.5 of them are going to be somewhat maxed out automatically. More on that in section: “Legend of Inaba”.
Every Social Link has 10 levels. The first level is to activate the link (Some are activated by Storyprogression, some have to be manually activated). To get to the next level you have to actively spend time with them (when they have a blue exclamation mark above their heads, go talk to them).

Note:
This achievement can be done with any S-Link. I recommend doing it with one (or all) of your Main Squadmembers. It will grant them bonuses in battle. You have plenty of time for this achievement.

It’s Working Today
Buy an item from the Capsule Machine

This one is pretty easy to get.
The Capsule Machine is located at the end of the Shopping District South infront of the Drug Store (Store where you buy medicine and stuff). The weather has to be rainy in order for you to buy something from the Machine. The game tells you that the Machine is broken and then asks you if you want to call the owner. Confirm and done.

An Acquired Taste
Drink the coffee at Chagall Cafe

In order to get this one you will have to visit and drink a coffee in the coffe shop Chagall Cafe.
The coffee shop itself is located in Okina City.

Here is a quick explanation on how to unlock Okina City:

Once you have gained your Motorcycle (Early summer) you can use the motorcycle (infront of Dojima’s House) to unlock “Okina City” by choosing the first option “Ride around the neighboorhood”. This will take a few times and also costs time. You can only do that during the day.

The Nose Doesn’t Always Know
Experience a fusion accident

Fusion Accidents happen during a regular fusion. I want to be honest with you. This is completely random and in my 100 hrs of playtime and maybe 200+ fusions it only happend 2 times.
If you really have trouble getting this achievement I advise you to be on your second playthrough with a ton of money.
Make a save point ->
buy a lot of low level Personas ->
Fuse them as much as possible ->
Hope for the best i guess.

BUT you should only do that if you are at the end of your second playthrough. Just like me you will probably do 200+ fusions so you will get it eventually.

Seize the Moment
Buy a special croquette from Sozai Daigaku

Fairly easy. The shop is located at the start of the Shopping District North. You can buy their special Crouqette on rainy days.

Fill Your Hand
Get 50 Sweep Bonuses

Also one of those “just play the game and you will get it at some point” – achievements.
Sweep bonuses are granted when you have picked all the cards during a Shuffe Time**. Cards with a +2 (like moon and sun) will allow you to pick 2 or more cards (Aeon will give you 4 without any negative consequences) but they will either reduce your XP, money or whatever.

Tipp:
If you have a negative card and the Star Card, then you can use the star card to avoid the negative effect of the other card. Pick the Negative card and then right after that the Star Card.
Whenever you have a bonus on your shuffle time the next enemy will have a higher chance of a shuffle time. In fact I had a spree of 10. Getting 50 for the achievement should be no problem.
**Shuffle Times are the Cardpicking phases after a won battle

A Special Lady
Enter a special relationship with someone

When maxing out the S-Link of a girl (except Nanako of course) you will have the option of either be friends or making her your Girlfriend. The option will not be granted at the very end. Its mostly at Level 8 ( when you are about to get level 9). While Naoto will need some kind of preperation other female friends are easier to get as a girlfriend. Pick the option that makes sense** and the achievement will be yours.

**For example:
Girl: I-is it okay… for me to ask…?

1. You’re my classmate (Friends)
2. You’re my friend. (Friends)
3. I really like you. (Lovers Relationship)

Note:
You can have multiple relationships.

Part 3

Part 3

Going Nova
Deal over 999 damage in 1 attack

This is pretty easy. Wait for your late game where you should have a higher level and a strong persona. Go to your first actual dungoen (Castle) and pick a fight with any shadow.
Doing over 999 damage is no problem since you can deal more then 2000 damage on certain bossfights

Cooking With Gas
Make 5 perfect boxed lunches

Whenever you get home and Nanako greats you, she might also tell you that the fridge is full. Click on the fridge and start making lunch. This is a common multiple choice quiz on how to make the certain dish. Picking the wrong option will waste the day and the food. Succed 5 times and the achievement is yours.

Note:

On the next school day the game will ask you who you want to eat lunch with. The said S-Link will get a bonus on its current S-Link Point. Remember this when you try to max out all S-Links.

Part 4

Part 4
Movie Buff
Go to 3 movies at 30 Frame

Just like the Chagall Cafe, the Cinema is located in Okina City. A ticket is about 2500Yen and going with a friend will grant bonuses on their stats.

Here is a quick explanation on how to unlock Okina City:

Once you have gained your Motorcycle (Early summer) you can use the motorcycle (infront of Dojima’s House) to unlock “Okina City” by choosing the first option “Ride around the neighboorhood”. This will take a few times and also costs time. You can only do that during the day.

Bug Hunter
Swing the net with perfect timing

Bughunting grants you a number of bugs. These are important for certain quests. (Look Hermit Quest in Legend of Inaba or “Fishing Master”).
To get this achievement you just have to swing the net with perfect timing.
But before that you will need to get the net:
Around early June:
Go to the Shrine in the Shopping District North and talk to the kid in green (the first kid) ->
He will tell you that he has lost his net ->
Then go back to the shrine at night/evening ->
This time you are looking for a women in white:

You need Courage to get their at night
The woman in white is not available everyday

Talk to her ->
She will tell you about searching for a goldfish. Irrelevant: YOU DONT NEED A GOLDFISH. Tipp: She will however exchange certain Stones for Fish.
After that she will ask you if you know a boy who has lost a net. ->
Press yes and the net is yours
Now go back to the kid and talk to him. In order to bughunt you will have to ask him where to hunt bugs.
Finally, examine the tree in the shrine and start hunting for bugs. To get a perfect timing, hit the action button as soon as you see the {!} above your head.

Note:
Bughunting can be done either on days or nights. Not on rainy ones though.
Bughunting does not cost any time but can only be done once a day.

This includes every unique Persona you either fuse or pick during Shuffle Times.
Make sure to pick the ones with “NEW” or use the “Searching”- Fusion
to get all the yet unregistered Personas (They will have a Card Symbol if they are already registered)

Fusion Expert
Perform 50 Persona fusions

You can fuse Personas in the Velvet Room. At the Early Stage of the game you are limited to fuse 2 or 3 Personas and also the search function (very useful).

Aiya’s restaurant is located at the very beginning of the Shopping District North. The special food is only available on rainy days and costs 3000Yen. In order to finish this you will need to have all Social Qualities (Courage Knowledge etc.) on MAX. See “Mr. Perfect” for more information on how to increase Social Qualities.

Card Collector
Register 100 Skill Cards

CTRL + F “A Favor for Marie” for a short explanation on what Skill Cards are :
This is a bit grindy and takes a good amount of times to accomplish.
What kind of card you will get during a Shuffle Time is random and to get this achievement you have to Register 100 Unique Skill Cards.

The best advice I can give you here is that you will get this by fighting and aiming for Skill Cards and possbile Sweep Bonuses
Another helpful option would be the Chagall Cafe in Okina City. It will grant you a certain Skill card depending on your Persona
The good thing is that you dont have to do this in one Playthrough. All registered Skill Cards will be carried over to the New Game+

Compulsive Reader
Read all books

Also possible to obtain during your second playthrough. However, keeping night times free is very helpful for Legend of Inaba. So having the book achievement out of the way makes your life easier.

To get this achievement you have to read every book in the game in 1 playthrough.
You can read in your room by examining the sofa. Each book will cost you multiple days to complete.
22 out of 32 Books are buyable Items in the bookstore in Shopping District South right next to the gas Station. (Ignore the book store in Okina City)

5 are quest rewards from the Avid Reader. You can find the Questgiver right infront of the Bookstore in Shopping District South. A Questsymbol above his head indicates that he has a quest ready.

Date Requirement Reward

*Anytime* Eat 8 times at Ayia’s. This can be any dish. The normal dish costs 800Yen and the speical dish costs around 3000Yen. If you want to obtain the “Legend of Inaba” at the same time i highly recommend doing this every night very early in the game before unlocking Dojima and Nanako. The Ramen Way

Now lets go the rest: These are highly missable:
These books are given to you by your Strengh S-Link (Sportsclub). For this Achievement it does somewhat matter which Sport you have chosen.

How to get a certain Ending

How to get a certain Ending
Now we have to be on the same page here. There are mutliple possilbe Endings in Persona 4 Golden. *SPOILER WARNING*
Note: To avoid any mistakes you should make use of the other save slots and read the texts carefully in the game.
If you are annoyed by these spoilter tags (understandable). just copy paste it on a .txt file and follow the guide from there.

Bad Ending: There are different bad endings though. The only thing you have to know is that you dont want to aim for this one. However if you want to still see this ending:
-> Do a quicksave after saving Nanako in the heaven. And dont follow the good ending guide.
The bad ending basically happens instantly. You will jump ahead in time untli your very last day. You will leave Inaba and the Town is still covered in thick fog.
-> After seeing the bad ending reload your save file and aim for the good ending.

Good Ending: I recommend playing this on your first Playthrough. However if you want to avoid playing 2.5 walkthroughs aim for the true ending in the same playthrough. Further down there is a guide on how to unlock that one.
Good ending:
A bit later after defeating Naratame and rescuing Nanako, Adachi will call you saying Nanako’s condition has become critical. Day: December / 03

A bit later you will find youself in Naratame’s Room with a big TV inside. Yosuke will give you the option to throw him into the TV to finally kill him, which is not what you want
Choose these options:

*Every other option will jump to the bad ending. Saving is advisable.*

– Wait a second here…

– We’re missing something.

– Naratame’s true feelings.

– Something’s been bothering me.

– We’re missing something…

– Calm the hell down

Later on you will find yourself searching for clues on the Cases. *For how to look for information go further down*
After that the Aiya Cutscene occurs and you will be asked by the game who YOU think the killer might be:
Look for Adachi and select that option
Note:
If you have adatchi,s S-link on 6 the game will ask you if you want to speak his name to your friends

Pressing yes will get you on the good path and will finally unlock adatchi,s dungeon
Pressing no will give you another bad endingBreaking Through the FogDefeat Adachi and solve the caseYou will have to clear Magatsu Inaba and beat Adachi + Ameno-sagiri.This Dungoen does not unlock if you have managed to get to the bad ending. This only opens up if you are about to get the good ending.Number of Floors: 9 (3 Magatsu Inaba, 6 Magatsu Mandala)Available: December 8Deadline: December 24After defeating Adachi you are able to get both the good and/or the true ending. Look further down.How to get Information: Go to shopping North and talk to the Housewife infront of the shrine. Now you have the second qustion available. Go to Junes and talk to everyone there , go to the riverbank and talk to everyone, go to Shop North and talk with everyone. Now go back to Shop South and talk to the women infront of the bookstore. At this point a cutscene should happen. Iff nothing happens -> Talk to EVERYONE in the city (Shopping District, Junes, River) and return to the women at the bookstore.!You have to ask both questions!The Truth In Your HandsDefeat IzanamiNumber of Floors: 9Available: March 20Deadline: March 20The final dungoen Yomotsu Hirasaka can ONLY be done by aiming for the TRUE ENDING.Here a quick guide on how to get the true ending:- Defeat Adachi- Play the game normally until March 20th- This is your last day. The game will tell you to say goodbye to EVERY Social Link you have maxed.- The game will keep telling you who is left and where to find them. Still Here you have a quick overview where everyone is:Busstaion: Yukiko, Uehara (Devil), Eri (Temperance)Shopping District:South: Chie, RIse, Shu(Tower) MargaretNorth: Kou + Daisuke (at Aiya’s), Marie, Fox (Shrine), Kanji, Naoki (Hanged)Junes: Teddy + Yosuke (Food Court)School: Ai, Naoto, Ayane or Yumi,Floodplain: Hisano (Death)Dojima Residence: Dojima + Naoto- After saying “Good Bye” to everyone the game tells you that you are done for this day and asks you if you want to go home. Say NO- You should go back to Shopping District South and make a save point. (Maybe a second one apart from your main one)- Go to junes and examine the elevator. The game will tell you that you have no business here. Ignore that and keep going. You will find yourself in the Food Court with your friends.- After that you will want to visit Dojima and Nanako who are located in the Samagwe Riverbank- Now go to the Shopping District South (save again) and enter the Velvet Room. They will ask you if you have missed something and so on. Igor will eventually give you a Keyitem which will be more important later.-Note: If you want to fight Margaret you should re-enter the Velvet room- After leaving the Velvet Room it should start raining. Now go to the gas station and talk to the person infront of the gas station.- Keep talking to him and ask him quesions regarding the case and so on- At some point he will finally give up and reveal his/her true form.- Done

Your second walkthrough

Your second walkthrough
Oh Yes baby.. Now we are getting to the real ♥♥♥♥. This is the main reason why I have decided to make this guide. In the first part you will see the achievements that thankfully just need a smaller explanation but can be annoying to get.
All the other ones have their own section.

But Before that:
NG+ carry overs:
Money
Social Skills (Courage etc.)
Persona Slots
Persona Compendium
Registered Skill Cards
Keyitems (Compendium Discounts, max Social Skill Gifts)
The Equipment you can buy at the weapons shop

Everything else will not be carried over. Make sure to sell everyhing before actually finishing the game.

Bond Maniac
Max out 10 Social Links

Self Explanatory. Max out 10 S-Links. More on “Legend of Inaba”

Welcome Back

A New Quiz King
Win the Miracle Quiz Finals

Oh yes! This was one of the best Achievements to get.
The Quiz fight is a minigame apart from the acutal game. But first:
How to get to the Quiz:
At some point in the game, it will tell you that you can enter the “TV Listings”.
Press “X” or on Controller “Start”
Now go to the acutal TV Listings and find “Inaba Public Access”
Note Every round unlocks after a specific event in the Storyprogression. To keep it spoiler free. I recommend playing the quiz in January after solving the case. You will then have every round unlocked.
This is not apart of the main game. You should save before going into the quiz

To obtain the trophy you will have to win all 3 rounds (1 round has 20 questions). You can try them as often as you want.

Ok now let’s talk about the Quiz itself:

This is not going to be an easy one. Not at all. The questions are rather specific
( For Example: What is the name of the now closed pharmacy on the north side of the central shopping district? Who the**** knows this lol)
Every right answer will grant you a point. Every wrong answer will give you a negative point.
There are about 100 Questions (I think not sure)
And to top that of you are playing against Yosuke, Chie and Yukiko. They sometimes hit the buzzer way before you could even read the whole question.

Thats how I managed to get the Achievement:
Read the question for about 1 second and hit the buzzer immediately even if you are not finished. After that you still have about 10 second to answer.
Just play and you will memporize the answers eventually.

Just tap out -> CTRL-F for the Answer and done. (PC Masterrace Advantage)

How to edit your save file

Text Guide
Multiple people have mentioned that having the game in windowed mode on is what makes the save edit work. Make sure to make a backup ! ( make a save file in slot 16 for example so if your save file doesn’t work you still have the one from slot 16 )

1 – Download P4G Safetool by Fendroidus and ShrineFox : Download Link [drive.google.com]

2 – Launch Persona 4 Golden and start the safe file you want to be edited.

3 – Make a save file under the save file you want edited.

4 – find second save in C/ProgramFilesx86/steam/userdata/(random number)/1113000/remote

5 – drag & drop the second save file you just made in the save editor.

6 – edit everything you need. ( stay In the safe editor, don’t save yet ! )

7 – restart P4G and go to the load save file screen.

8 – save the save in save editor.

9 – if you followed everything, you are now on the load save file screen while having the edited save saved in the saved editor. You can now load the save file in game.

10 – Check if everything is working.

11 – overwrite your first save file ( delete the second save file in C/ProgramFilesx86/steam/userdata/1096435225/1113000/remote )

The Reaper Becomes the Reaped

The Reaper Becomes the Reaped
The Reaper Becomes the Reaped
Defeat The Reaper

The Reaper is an Optional Mini-Boss who can be encountered in several Dungoens. The last day you can do this is also on the very last day of the game: March 20.

The hardest part of this achievement is not fighting the reaper but rather finding him even though you have probably seen him or were about to face him by sheer luck.

Before giving you a guide on how to find him you have to know how the spawning works.

You have a good chance of summoning the Reaper when you have opened 21 chests. Once you are on your 21th chest you WILL hear chain sounds. This indicates that the Reaper MIGHT be on the next non-golden chest. So in other words. The game gives you a chestcounter and on the 22nd chest you have the possibility to summon the reaper.

Now to the guide:
If you go on the internet and search for a farming guide the most common way is yukiko’s caste farming tactic.
This can either work perfectly or not one freaking time. The reason for this is the Chestcounter.

So, before actually getting into the guide YOU HAVE TO RESET YOUR CC.
If you jump right into the guide without reseting it you might be trapped at the beginning of the guide and will never successfully spawn the Reaper.

Enough Talking, let’s go:

Have Rise S-Link at 3 or higher for *Chest Radar*
Get a good amount of Goho-M (30 Depending on how often you want to kill the Reaper)

Enter the 1st Floor of Yukiko’s Castle
Now the important part:
Open every chest in the 1st floor and pay close attention to any chain sounds (Might be that the 1st, 2nd etc. chest you have opened has triggered the chain sound -> Don’t open any chests and go back by calling Rise). Once the last chest has been opened in the floor: Wait a few seconds check if you hear chain sounds or not:
if
you hear the chain sounds you can be 100% that your CC is at 21. Now go back to the entrance by calling Rise. You have successfully reset your Chestcount. Now you can do the guide at the bottom without worrying about anything other then the fight itself.
you hear NO chainsounds -> Call Rise and go back to the entrance. Re-enter the 1st floor and open every chest. Repeat this if-path until you hear Chain sounds.

After successfully reseting your CC

Go to Yukiko’s Castle and work your way up/down to Floor 5.
Now use Goho-M
Enter the dungoen and go to the 1st Floor
Open the Map and look for 4 Chests. If by any means you dont see 4 chest on your map (Has never happend to me) -> Leave the dungoen and go back to the hub. Re-Enter the 1st Floor. And so on
Open every chest in this floor.
Go back to the entrance by calling Rise
Re-enter the 1st Floor
Repeat 5 times to get the CC at 20
Tipp: If you have trouble remembering the number of Chests opened -> Make sure you hear no chain sounds -> go back to the Hub and save. The CC will not be reseted if you leave the dungeon.
After 20 chest opened -> leave the dungoen and make a save Point.

Go back to the Dungoen and enter the 5th floor
This Dungoen only has 2 Chests and both of them have good chances of spawning a shadow.
Open both chests and hope for the best. After opening the first chest YOU SHOULD HEAR CHAIN SOUNDS
If
done correctly and a bit of luck the 22nd chest you are about to open spawns the Reaper.
(Game Text starts with “……….”
nothing happend -> reload your last save , re-enter the 5th floor and repeat the last step

Fight:
If you actively hunt the Reaper I assume that you are 80+ and have access to strong Persona’s. Thats why I dont really have a lot to say about the Fight. But just to prepare yourself:

The Reaper attacks 2 times in a row and he has 3 form of attack tactics:
Heavy Elemantal Damage (Mostly on Members with weaknesses)
Instantkills (Darkness, Light)
Physical Damage (normal attacks)
When I fought him like … 20 times he mostly did Elemental Damage and that was no problem since my Teammembers had “Evade XXX” ( you get that by maxing their S-Link)

Whenever he used Instantkills my members withstand his attack with the ability of their max S-link.
So having your Teammembers on 10. S-Link is also very helpful.

The battles mostly lasted like… 2 or 3 rounds so I unfortunately cant give you any more tipps (Sorry) but you should be fine if you have “Yoshi tsune[arantius.github.io]” and just buff yourself with Evade, damage, defense and debuff the Reapers Evade chance, defense.

If you have trouble fighting him:
Look at the “One Who Has Proven Their Power”.

Note:
The Chestcount is important to keep track of.
There are only 2 things that can reset the CC:
Exiting the floor while hearing Chain sounds
Opening the 22nd chest

The CC is NOT set to 0 by
Using Goho-M (unless you hear Chain sounds)
Leaving the Dungoen (unless you hear Chain sounds)
Fighting Shadows
Opening golden Treasure Chests (unless you hear Chain sounds)

Once you have finally defeated The Reaper you will be granted this achievement and a pretty neat weapon. Killing him multiple times will grant every other party member a High-End weapon. Once Every of your party Member has been granted a reward
the Reaper will drop “Godly Robe” (High Defense, and +10 on all Stats)

*SPOILERS AHEAD*

Oh Boy where do I start.

Not gonna lie, this achievement can be quite tough. BUT I have realized that this game is quite forgiving when it comes to this achievement. In Fact you can easily do that if you just know how to properly plan your Social Links.

In order to get to the next S-Level you need to have a certain amount of S-Link Points.
Before actually spending time with a person you should pay close attention to the in game text.
If it states that “the relationship will become closer soon” or “the relationship will deepen” thats where you know that you will be granted the next level. Everything else is a wasted day.
Increase your points to make sure you dont waste a day.

Helpful Guide I used for this achievement:

Guide on how to activate a certain S-Link and what answers give what S-Point[sites.google.com]

How you can increase your Points:

Spending time and giving the right answers
Eating Lunch (CTRL + F for “Cooking with Gas” for a cooking guide)
Spending time at night
Drawing a fortune at night for 200Yen and picking the certain person
Ranking #1 on a Exam (only School Social Links)
Studying together
Giving the right answer during class when they were actually been asked the question

Deadlines:

Most S-Links have February 5th as their Deadlines.
Except for:
Adachi: (November 1th) (You only have reach level 6)
Marie: (Solving the case)

Jester / Hunger (Adachi): Adachi is only available on certain days[sites.google.com].
And can only be maxed when going for the true ending.
At some point he switches from Daytime to nightime. See the guide above for more information.
Important: *SPOILER*
The Hunger S-Link will finally be maxed on your last day March 20 automatically when you are about to get the TRUE ending

Some Social Links have to be activated first before being accessable.

Tipps:
Make multiple saves in case of messing up.(Wasting a day or forgetting to solve Hermit quest)

Always carry a Persona of the S-Link you are currently leveling in your Inventory. It will give you a boost on your S-Points when spending time together.

Try to Max Dojima and Nanoko right at the beginning. They are available almost everyday at night times. Buy getting them first out of the way you can use the following nights to your advantage.

Gardening will also slightly boost your S-Link with the Person you are with. it costs no time

Open the “Voice” Button on the top corner to keep track of some possible available S-Links

Try to rescue a Person on just one day! You do not have to rescue the person on the very first day (Deadlines are in this guide). It is adviseable to look at the weartherforcast and make your plans accordingly.
Check the Weather Report daily to see if there are rainy days ahead so you can pick the rainy days as your TV days and plan ahead

Spoilers:

Whenever you have a free night -> go outside
You can either spend time at night to boost your S-Points or you can draw fortunes at the shrine.

Culture Club can be attended during rainy days. (Very Helpful)

The Hermit Social Link is your best Joker. He can be leveled on any day. And asking for the next Quest is completely free + solving quests are also free.

Try avoiding going straight home. There is always something to do. For example unlocking the beach, Okina City, studying with a S-LInk, or preparing the Hermit Quest

Margarets S-Link can be done on any day and leveling costs no time.

Margaret Link Quests:
Margaret Quest Guide[sites.google.com]
Also possible with Skill Cards
Tipp: You should manually register the Persona’s so you can easily level up Margaret’s S-Link for future playthroughs

Complete the Persona Compendium

For this achievement you will need to get the Compendium to 100%. This means getting every Persona in the Game except for one: Izanagi no-Okami (The world Persona)
Due to the Compendium getting carried over to the next playthrough you don’t have to do this in one specific playthrough. Just remember that you have to max EVERY Social Link at least once to obtain their Keyitem which makes their Social Link Persona available.

With the Search Fusion and the Power of the Internet the only things that can stop you from getting this achievement are:
Playerlevel (be at least 93)
and Money (have at least 1 or 2 Mio.)

Hear 250 of Rise’s navigation lines

This is commonly known as the worst and random achievement to get. But to be honest, if you know what you are looking for, you can save hours, maybe days.
To get this achievement you have to hear 250 unique Navigation lines from Rise. You can actually get this on your first playthrough but I recommend getting this on your second one, mainly because of all the grinding going to waste. If you want to fight Margaret, this achievement is acutally a good motivation to level to 99.

Before jumping to the list you should understand what you are aiming for when going for this achievement. I guarantee you that you will have no questions unanswered after reading this guide

Common Qustions about this Achievement:

1) Do the lines get carried over to the next game?
I don’t know
I seriously doubt it and I would not take the risk and count on it anyway.

2) What counts towards this achievement?
Ok this is important: The lines have to be:
DURING a Battle
Rise’s picture has to be on THE TOP of the screen
You have to see a text field and you have to here her voice

3) Are there only 250 lines?
Nope. Not sure how many but I have listed over 300 lines and there are still some missing. I think there are about 400 lines in total.

4) is it easier to be underleveled for this?
No, not necessarily. Don’t worry about being overleveled. There are a few lines (maybe 4 – 6) in which she tells you that the enemy is stronger than you but this is seriously not worth it. The good thing however is that you do not one hit all enemies at once. But you can change the difficulty and have controle over your damageoutput. Just to let you know: I was 99 when I was hunting for the achievement.

5) Do comments on the weakness count if you analize the enemy?
Nope. Only her own Weakness scans (S-Link level 2 or higher) count. Although, analyzing the enemy is still very useful for this achievement.

6) What about the lines where she tells you off battle that you should watch your health?
Nope.

7) What about the Lines that….
I SAID NO

Analizeshuffle:
This is a great way to get some more lines out of Rise:
Analyze an enemy and go back out. If you hear nothing repeat. She will eventually say something new. This is super useful when a Teammember suffers from any kind of Debuff.

Now to the Guide:
Play the game normally up until the “Void Quest”
However DO NOT LEVEL UP RISE’S S-LINK!
Once Rise’s S-Link is Level 2 she will learn “Weakness scan” These will make the Ambush and Advantage-Strikes rarer and we dont want that.

Try focusing on getting these ones in void quest and/or the secret lab:
Ambush Lines (Let the shadow attack you on the back)
Advantage Hits (Attack the shadow on his back)
Neutral fights (noones back has been attacked, neither you or the enemies have advantage)
Escape lines
(press escape while waiting for an escape (+1 line), press escape while battling a boss (+1)

Note: You dont have to get every single line. 5 Enemy encounters are quite rare. Fun fact. I got six 5-Enemy Encounters in a row AFTER I got the weakness scan… This .. is… Thank you Dark Souls.

Once you have gained most of the lines above you can start leveling Rise’s S-Link. Now she will give out the Weakness/Immune Lines with “Weaknes Scan”.

At this point you should have at least 120 – 150 lines. Now comes the grindy part. You will need to milk the Teammember Lines where they suffer from several Statuschanges (Defense Down, Confuse etc.)

Tipp:

When grinding: Turn up or down the difficulty Setting. Useful if you want to control your and/or the enemies damage for further lines.
Switch Dungoens to get other Debuffs and weaker enemies for easy one hits
To get Defense, Agility, And Offense Lines go to the Secret Lab Floor 7 – 8 and look for the Mind Dice[megamitensei.fandom.com] enemy. He will cast “Debilitate” on you + Mind Dice is immune to physical attacks. Just Rush and MIlk. Or you can Analyizeshuffle the remaining lines.

If you have about 200 – 220 lines in total you can switch your teammembers and gain the rest of the lines. This is the “my work will pay off now, after I got the hard ones out of the way” part.

Note that if you have missed 5 to 10 lines you will get them on different Bossfights.

all of rises lines

Defeat Margaret

Margaret is by far the strongest enemy in the game. Even on “Very Easy” you might run into problems. She can summon all kinds of End game Personas and attacks 2 times in a turn (+x when she exploits weaknesses).
Before talking about the acutal fight here a quick guide on how to get her to battle you:

You need to be on NG+
You have Empress (Margaret) S-Link Maxed
You have beaten every optional boss up until Heaven (re-entering the same dungoen and defeating the shadows at the end floor)
You are about to get the TRUE Ending

Now lets go:
See *How to get the true ending* further up in this guide.

After entering the Velvet Room and obtaining the KeyItem “Orb of Sight” you have to re-enter the Velvet Room. Margaret will be sitting alone and asks you to battle her. After that you will be given the Keyitem “Aqua Invitation”. That’s it.

You will find Margaret in the top floor of the Heaven Dungoen.

Now to the fight:
Make sure you and your Party members are
99
Social Links maxed out and Persona Version 3 (S maxed and had the final talk in January)
Have the best possible equipment you can find (Maybe by farming Reaper: To see a guide on farming the Reaper go to section “The Reaper Becomes the Reaped”)

This is a simple strategy that I used:
Fuse Persona “Yoshi tsune[arantius.github.io]” (Tower) This Persona has a signature move called “Hassou Tobi” dealing light damage to all foes 8 times.
Buff your Teammembers with Bonus Attack, Hit/Evasion Rate and Defense
Tipp: Have a Persona who has Auto-Buff skills as your first Persona and then switch to any other one.
Debuff Margaret’s Defense, Attack, Hit/Evasion Rate. (Use Debilitate: Norn, Trempeter)
Then keep hitting her with strong Damage spells
Pay attention to the persona she has summoned. She will get the
resistances of that persona( summons loki -> Immune to Ice, Summons Yoshi tsune -> immune to physical attacks)
She will sometimes heal herself. Mostly once somtimes twice. But thats it.

The Power of Truth

The Power of Truth
Fuse Izanagi-no-Okami

To finally fuse the final Persona in the game you have to fullfill these requirements first:
Be on a NG+ and on your last Playthrough you had to have seen the TRUE ENDING
Be Level 91 or higher
Have the Persona “Norn” (Max Fortune S-LInk) available in Compendium or available to fuse

After July 10th Igor will allow you to Fuse more than 3 Personas which includes fusing Izanagi-no-Okami.

He are the 12 Personas you need to fuse Izanagi-no-Okami:

Izanagi (Fool)
Sandman (Strength)
Nata Taishi (Chariot)
Girimehkala (Moon)
Norn (Fortune) (Max Fortune)
Okuninushi (Emperor)
Orthrus (Hanged Man)
Kartikeya (Star)
Mithra (Temperance)
Tzitzimitl (Priestess)
Cu Chullain (Tower)
Legion (Fool)

If by any means you don’t want to play this game another time and level up to 91 again. (understandable) Here is a link to a Savepoint at the 6th Saveslot:

IMPORTANT

1) Download this:
[link]

2) Go ingame and make sure you have 6 Savefiles (make 6 saves up to saveslot 6)

Saveslot 1
Saveslot 2
Saveslot 3
Saveslot 4
Saveslot 5
Saveslot 6

It doesnt matter what the saveslots are, the reason for this is that the game won’t recongnize my saveslot at the 6th place if there arent any other up to 6.

3) Now drag and drop this here and replace your 6th saveslot:
C:Program Files (x86)Steamuserdata[numbers]1113000remote

4)Launch the game. The name of the Ingame SaveSlot should be “Yu Narukami” Level 90+
Open that file and you will hopefully be in Shopping District South right infront of the Velvet Room and a rainy day.

5) Every Persona needed is already in your Inventory. Enter the Velvet Room and Fuse Izanagi-no-Okami with the Dodecagon special fusion.

Note: This is a modified Save Point meaning that if you level up on this save point you will return to Level 24. Just use this file to get the achievement.

Trading

Gems are special items obtained after winning battles. Unlike Materials, Gems serve another purpose other than being sold. Trade these Gems with the old lady at the Shiroku Pub to obtain new weapons. The Shiroku Pub is the same building as the Shiroku Store, but it’s only open during the evening.

Gems can also be obtained from the Lady in White at Tatsuhime Shrine at night once you have given her enough of the fish she requests.

Persona 4: Golden is not only a gorgeous port to the PlayStation Vita but also the secret best multiplayer experience you’ll ever have. Turning a completely single-player game into a multiplayer experience doesn’t have to suck, but most of the time developers choose the quickest and most jarring and disruptive options.

Understanding the Social Link System

Social links are a key mechanic in the persona series and represents the bonds that you form with people throughout your journey. In Persona 4 Golden, there are 23 social links altogether, with 3 that rank up from progressing the story, 2 from completing quests, and the rest following a point system.Points for social links can be earned through interactions, which range from +1 to +3 (per individual action) depending on the type of interaction and choices you make, and carrying a matching persona can sometimes increase that by one (+3 is the max regardless of persona, mainly applies to +1 and +2 actions). For example, spending time with a social link after school will net you +2, but by bringing a matching persona, you’ll get an additional point, totaling +3. So try and bring a matching persona with you if you know that you’re going to do something with them. You can also tell if a social link has gained points by seeing if yellow music notes appear over their head, with each individual note denoting one point added to the social link (green notes don’t do anything).

Here are some ways you can earn points for social links that rank up through the point system:
Spend time with them (+2 or +3, rank up interaction)
Respond to scenes where it makes them happy (each response ranges from 0 to +3, though testing shows it might be possible to get more than +3 if the response has a social stat requirement such as Courage or Expression, but no visual indicators to verify)
Hang out during evenings (classmates only, no rank up, and not available if you spent time with them during the day; but it does have cutscene dialogues that give additional points)
Sharing your lunch (classmates only, requires making boxed lunch the evening prior)
Study together (party members only, available during the week before exams)
Do well on exams (If you score well you gain points for all your classmates)
Drawing a fortune at the shrine (blessing outcomes: small, mild, great)
Maintaining garden (Justice & Hiero +1 depending on if they are home, +2 with persona)
Sleeping in the futon (random, would not recommend due to unreliable results)
Social links will usually let you know if they will rank up the next time you hang out with them if a message says your relationship with them will grow closer soon, or if they are your classmates and they talk to you about hanging out during lunchtime. In addition, each time you begin a social link rank up cutscene, your points reset to 0, but you can make progress towards the next rank during that cutscene. For example…
You enter the Chariot’s rank up to Rank 6 cutscene with 6 SLink points. Even though Rank 6 only requires 4 SLink points, the extra 2 SLink points will not carry over at the start of the cutscene. However, let’s say you earned 6 SLink points during the Rank 6 cutscene, that will contribute towards getting the rank up to Rank 7 (which requires exactly 6 SLink points, guaranteeing another rank up the next time you spend time with Chie).

Because of this, you don’t need a matching persona to start or finish a social link (for finish, this assumes you already have enough SLink points to start the MAX Rank cutscene).

Another important thing to keep in mind is that some social links can be reversed or broken. If that happens, you will need to reconcile with them before you can continue the social link.

The list of social links and the specific interactions that can reverse or break them are as follows…

Moon SLink
Reverse – Rank up to Rank 3 conversation
– Ai rejected him without a second thought…
Response: C – “That was downright cruel…”

Reverse – Rank up to Rank 5 conversation
– Ai: “All I need you to do is… ask him what’s his type. That’s it.”
Response: B – “Not gonna happen!”

Break – Rank up to Rank 9 (friends route) conversation
– Ai: “Is there any way… that we could just be friends?”
Response: C – “We need time apart

What Affects Social Link Availability?

Once you start getting more social links, you’ll soon realize you won’t be able to interact with them every day to rank up. After all they have their own things they need to take care of, and you yourself need to juggle between living your life as a student, while also trying to figure out the murder case. In general, every social link follows a set schedule, with certain variables affecting whether they are available or not.

Weather
You can check the current day’s weather by looking at the top right icon of your screen next to the date, and you can see the entire upcoming week’s worth of weather forecast by checking your TV at home (it also shows every time a day passes).

Regular Days – These are days where the weather is Sunny, or Cloudy. This is the default, and should not affect any social link schedules.

Rainy Days – These are days where the weather is Raining, or Thunderstorm. On these days, most social links will be unavailable, the ones that tend to be available are those that take place indoors (Sun, Hermit, Fortune, and all Evening Social Links).

Foggy Days – This weather actually uses the cloudy icon, and works very similarly to Exploration Mode (explained below) where some of your team members will be unavailable for hanging out.

Snowy Days – Snowy days use a snowman icon. These days can be treated as regular days.

Murder Case Progress
The other main variable that affects the schedules of your social links, is whether you are currently investigating a person regarding the case, or if you have found the dungeon but have not cleared it yet.

Investigation Mode – These are days where you have to go around town talking to various people to gather clues for your investigation. Until you finish your investigations (need to enter the TV and find their dungeon as well, not just finish talking to people), all Investigation Team SLinks (plus Marie/Aeon) will not be available.
*This also triggers if you choose to call your friends and meet at the food court but decide to return to town instead of spending time by entering the TV.

Exploration Mode – Once you finish your investigations, you will be passing time in exploration mode until you clear the dungeon (can completely skip this if you finish your investigations and clear the dungeon on the same day). During this time, some of your team members will be unavailable for social linking, and will instead ask you to explore the dungeon on that day.

Since you will be performing this last fusion fairly late in the game — and you might or might not have the Tower Social Link with Shu Nakajima at an appropriate level to give a large experience bonus during the fusion — fuse Taotie and use a Skill Card to teach him Growth (preferably Growth 3). Then, enter a dungeon with the Growth-infused Taotie in your hand, kill a few enemies, and he should hit 38 fairly quickly, thus learning Mind Charge.

Twisted Shopping District

During their initial trek into the Midnight Channel, Teddie leads Yosuke and the protagonist into a part of the world that had never been there before. Yosuke was surprised to find that this area looked exactly like the Central Shopping District. Teddie then leads them into the entrance of a dungeon, which was parallel to the location of the Konishi Liquor Store.

Just then, Shadows emerged from the entrance. The protagonist awoke to his Persona, Izanagi, and defeated the Shadows with ease. Taking no chances, the trio stepped inside, where they found it to be a storeroom. There, the party heard the thoughts of Saki Konishi, which made Yosuke feel guilty, and subsequently revealed his Shadow. The Shadow then mocked Yosuke’s purpose in coming to the Midnight Channel, revealing that he was only coming for the thrill of exploring the new world. When Yosuke denied this, the Shadow turned violent and attacked the party. The protagonist summons his Persona and defeated the Shadow. Yosuke then accepted that the Shadow is who he is, and awakened his own Persona Jiraiya.

Yukiko,s castle

Yukiko’s Castle is the second Dungeon in the TV World, but some may consider it the first true Dungeon. It first becomes available on April 17th, and must be cleared by April 29th.

The first time you reach Yukiko’s Castle, you’ll receive a few items from Teddie: Revival Bead x3, Peach Seed x5 – Try to save at least one Peach Seed, you’ll need one for a future Quest – and Soul Drop x5.

If you see a shadow walking around, hit it with your weapon to enter battle. If you need more tips on battling, see the Combat page.

All the floor layouts in this dungeon are randomized. Fight as many shadows as you can to level up for the Boss Battles ahead. If you get hurt, use items or Yosuke’s Dia Skill to recover health in or out of battle.

Green Wall: Grants Wind resistance to the boss for three turns.
Mazio: Deals light Electric damage to the party.
Bottomless Jealousy: Deals light Physical damage to the party.
Mabufu: Deals light Ice damage to the party.
Strategy
Have Yosuke use Garu while he can. If you picked up a Persona that has the Garu ability, team up with Yosuke to make things go much quicker. Using a Wind attack will down Shadow Chie, allowing you to use an all-out attack. However, if Shadow Chie uses Green Wall, she will become immune to Wind attacks. If this happens, resort to physical attacks, party buffs, and enemy de-buffs.

Shadow Chie may also use Mazio, an electric attack that will knock down Yosuke. She usually uses it when Green Wall wears off on the third turn. To survive the attack, have Yosuke guard himself before Chie’s third turn.

Win the battle to rescue and team up with Chie. The game will return you to the real world after the boss battle, and the Fool Social Link will establish.

Return
The next time you visit Yukiko’s Castle, Teddie will give you three Goho-M. This item will allow you to return to the entrance of the castle without having to walk all the way back.

Enter the castle and make your way to the top. Remember to use the Dia Skill in or outside of battle to restore HP. If your HP and SP gets too low, you can exit out of the TV and return another day.

When you reach the fifth floor, you may notice something weird. The floor will send you back a short distance. When this happens, start walking the opposite direction and open which ever door is nearby. The east door contains the next boss battle.

Avenger Knight is the toughest boss yet. This Shadow is weak to Fire, but you won’t have a fire Skill or Persona by default. Use a Skill Card or get a new Persona that knows Fire skills to hit its weak spot. Still, it won’t be that easy of a fight. It will use Red Wall to resist fire skills for three turns.

The boss will increase its attack and use Power Charge to double the power of its next physical attack. When this happens, you may want to guard to withstand the damage.

Defeat the Knight to obtain the Glass Key. This key will open the locked door at north on this floor.

Shadow Yukiko

The eighth floor is the top floor of Yukiko’s Castle. Make sure the entire party is healed up and ready to face the final boss.

Agi: Inflicts light Fire damage to one party member.
Terror Voice: Inflicts Fear to one party member.
Strategy
It is recommended that you reach Level 12-15 on Normal Difficulty before fighting this boss. A Fire-resistant Persona is useful in this battle, as well.

Shadow Yukiko will use Burn to Ashes after the party takes a turn. Use this chance to guard Chie from being knocked down. Chie will need to lead this battle with her Ice attacks. If you got a Bufu Skill Card from Shuffle Times, you can teach Izanagi the Ice attack to double team Yukiko. If two people have Ice attacks, don’t do the All Out Attack when Shadow Yukiko gets knocked down. Instead, use ice attacks while it’s down to cause extra damage.

When it’s Shadow Yukiko’s turn again, she will use White Wall to prevent Ice from knocking her down. This skill lasts for three turns. Lower its defense and use Physical attacks in the meantime. Once White Wall is set up, guard Chie for the next attack. Yukiko’s next turn should be Burn to Ashes, a fire attack that hits the entire party. If Chie gets knocked down, Yukiko will get another turn. Yuki’s other turns may include Agi, a fire attack that will hit one of the party members.

After a few turns, Shadow Yukiko will summon Charming Prince. Charming Prince has the ability to heal Shadow Yukiko, so eliminating him first should be priority. Use Zio to hit his weakness. It should use Makajam before leaving to Silence one party member, preventing them from using their Persona. Deal enough damage to him and he will Escape from the battle. Shadow Yukiko will attempt to call him back, but will be unsuccessful.

When Shadow Yukiko becomes really weak, it will use Terror Voice, which inflicts Fear to an ally. This will prevent them from attacking, and they may even run from battle. The only thing you can do is use an item to remove it. The next attack will be Shivering Rondo, which does massive damage to those with Fear, but it will also remove the Status Ailment if they survive.

Finish off the boss to get more dialogue before returning home.

Contrarian King

After April 29th, Contrarian King will take the place of Shadow Yukiko. It will be up on the 8th floor, and you will have to start from the bottom once again. It’s best to level up quite a bit before challenging it!

Strategy
Contrarian King will start the battle with Red Wall to drain all fire attacks. If you attempt to use a Fire attack, it will restore its health. Attack with Physical, Ice and Electric attacks. After a few hits, it will either use Rampage or Kill Rush, a physical attack that hits the entire party. If you aren’t strong enough, Rampage co.

Strategy
Daring Gigas will buff his attack stat with both Power Charge and Tarukaja, so his single shot will definitely hurt more than you would initially think. If Daring Gigas uses Rebellion too, it would be in your best interest to guard. Make use of any revival items you have, should you need to.

Buff your evasion stat with Sukunda and try to have a Persona equipped that resists Physical damage. It’s best to use Magic Skills since Physical Skills may be countered.

Strategy
Shadow Kanji will likely poison your Male Party Members and enrage your Female Party Members, so any items or skills that you have that can undo these effects will definitely come in handy. Dokudami Teas should help in this fight.

Taking out Nice Guy and Tough Guy is not necessary to finish the battle, but it may make the fight easier and provides an experience boost.

A Persona with Physical and Electric Resistances will help a lot, as Shadow Kanji and his buddies play rough. Be aware of Nice Guy and Tough Guy, as they block certain elemental attacks.

Nice Guy should be taken out first; he regularly buffs and heals Shadow Kanji, making your job harder. He will cast a Fire Resistance spell on the enemy party, protecting Tough Guy from being knocked down. Use Ice elemental attacks to knock down Nice. After Nice Guy has been taken out, focus your attention on Tough Guy, who is weak to Fire elemental attacks.

Strategy
Return after rescuing Kanji to find Intolerant Officer on the 11th floor. He’s weak to electric and does Medium Ice damage to one party member. He will use it to double attack Yukiko if she’s in battle. If not, or if you guard, Intolerant Officer will use Garula: Medium Wind damage skill.

It won’t take much damage from an all out attack. It’s best to use two electric attacks, then hit with physical while it’s down, unless Kanji is in the party for multiple electric attacks.

After the battle, search the area for a new weapon for Kanji:

Iron Plate
Effect: +2 Magic
Attack: 113
Hit: 92

Marukyu Striptease

The Marukyu Striptease dungeon in P4 Golden has multiple floors. You need to head to the top of the dungeon to actually find Rise and save her.

The stairs are found at the end of each floor. Make sure you search throughout to find treasure chests across the floors.

Across the floors, you will face different enemy types that you need to take out. Make sure you completely clear the enemies to get an additional boss in the dungeon.

Let us look at the different bosses that you will encounter through the Marukyu Striptease Dungeon.

Amorous Snake Boss
The first boss of the dungeon, Amorous Snake is encountered on the 7th floor of the dungeon. The boss is weak to Fire, this is what you will capitalize on.

Using Fire attacks will make the fight a breeze. It is better for each ally to do their own attack instead of going in for an All-Out attack.

Keep in mind that Amorous Snake will try and poison the entire party at once using a combination of Stagnant Air followed by Virus Wave, so be prepared. Following is a list of attacks Amorous Snake uses:

Mind Slice- Deals Moderate Physical damage to the entire Party with a chance of Confusion
Life Drain- Drains 30 HP from one party member
Sharp Student- Lowers chance of being struck by a Critical Hit
Stagnant Air- Increases susceptibility to ailments
Virus Wave- Deals Heavy Physical damage to the entire party with a chance of Poison
Shadow Rise
The next boss you face is Rise and her shadow. Both of them are found on 11th Floor. The fact to keep in mind is that Shadow Rise has no weakness so you need to be prepared, stay completely healed and packed with items that you can use against the boss.

Your Party should be around Level 33-38 before trying to fight Shadow Rise to make things easier.

Shadow Rise always begins with Fire spells, so bring Chie along. A Persona with Fire resistance can be used but Shadow Rise will use Fire Break.

As the boss has no weaknesses or resistances, simply attack her with any powerful moves that your party can land.

In case Shadow Rise is downed due to a critical hit, use most powerful move as it will deal bonus damage, and prefer it over an All-Out attack.

As her health drops to 50%, Shadow Rise will scan the party and none of your attacks from here on out will connect.

When this happens, you can just guard with all your party members to save time. The fight should end three turns after Supreme Insight is used.

The attacks and moves used by Shadow Rise are as follows:

Agi- Inflicts Light Fire damage to one Party Member
Maragi- Inflicts Light Fire damage to the whole Party
Agilao- Inflicts Moderate Fire damage to one Party Member
Maragion- Inflicts Moderate Fire damage to the whole Party
Bufu- Inflicts Light Ice damage to one Party Member
Mabufu- Inflicts Light Ice damage to the whole Party
Bufula- Inflicts Moderate Ice damage to one Party Member
Mabufula- Inflicts Moderate Ice damage to the whole Party
Zio- Inflicts Light Electric damage to one Party Member
Mazio- Inflicts Light Electric damage to the whole Party
Zionga- Inflicts Moderate Electric damage to one Party Member
Mazionga- Inflicts Moderate Electric damage to the whole Party
Garu- Inflicts Light Wind damage to one Party Member
Magaru- Inflicts Light Wind damage to the whole Party
Garula- Inflicts Moderate Wind damage to one Party Member
Magarula- Inflicts Moderate Wind damage to the whole Party
Fire Break- Removes resistance to Fire from one Party Member
Ice Break- Removes resistance to Ice from one Party Member
Elec Break- Removes resistance to Electricity from one Party Member
Wind Break- Removes resistance to Wind from one Party Member
Mind Slice- Deals Moderate Physical damage to the entire Party with a chance of Confusion
Supreme Insight- Your Party can no longer attack Shadow Rise
Shadow Teddie
After the boss battle with Shadow Rise, you will face the Shadow version of Teddie. Shadow Teddie will use a Mind Charge Mabufula combo throughout the battle.

If you see him use Mind Charge, have Yukiko guard to withstand the damage, as she is weak to Ice. Chie should be fine here, and if you have a Persona who can resist Ice, equip them as well.

After Shadow Teddie uses Marakunda, he will mostly follow up with Heat Wave. Its damage can be reduced by guarding or equipping a persona which resists physical attacks or by removing the defense reduction.

If any of your party members become Silenced by Foolish Whisper, use the Mouthwash item to cure them, and keep hitting with High Damage attacks.

When his HP is low enough, Shadow Teddie will begin charging up his power with Ultra Charge. This will leave him vulnerable to attacks for one turn.

Once fully charged, Nihil Hand will be unleashed on the next turn. Having the whole Party use Guard will stop them from taking any damage.

After it says “Shadow Teddie is Charging Up,” use guard. You can attack Teddie at this point for 800-900 damage.

It will knock Teddie down, open for an All-Out attack, however this is very risky and not recommended.

When his HP is lower than 25%, he will occasionally use Bufudyne, Gigantic Fist and Nullity Guidance, which deals strong almighty damage and inflicts the Dizzy Status.

The list of all the attacks used by Teddie are as follows:

Ice Break: Removes resistance to Ice from one Party Member
Mind Charge: The next Fire, Ice, Electrical, Wind, or Almighty magic attack will be 2.5 times greater in power.
Mabufula: Inflicts Moderate Ice damage to the whole party
Bufudyne: Inflicts Heavy Ice damage to one Party Member
Dekaja: All Stat increases are nullified at the whole party
Dekunda: All Stat decreases are nullified on the user
Marakunda: Lowers Defense of the whole party
Ultra Charge: Charges up a powerful attack. Vulnerable for one more turn.
Nihil Hand: Severe almighty damage to the whole party and may inflict Dizzy. Can be avoided by guarding.
Foolish Whisper: May inflict Silence to the whole party
Heat Wave: Deals Moderate Physical damage to the whole party
Gigantic Fist: Deals Heavy Physical damage to one Party Member
Nullity Guidance: Heavy Almighty damage that knocks down one ally and makes them Dizzy.
Momentary Child Optional Boss
Momentary is the boss that you can only access after completely clearing out the dungeon and will be available on the top floor. The boss itself is weak to ice.

Momentary Child will increase its attack at the beginning of the battle. If you noticed in the attack list below, it primarily uses Physical attacks.

Lower its defense and hit it with an Ice attack to knock it down. When it’s down, do not use an All-Out Attack but use more Ice attacks and Physical attacks.

The fight should not be too difficult. Have your weaker characters guard whenever Momentary Child skips a turn, stating that ‘Momentary Child is indignant’, as it will use a heavy physical attack after the turn.

All of the attacks Momentary child uses are as follows:

Tarukaja: Increases the user’s attack.
Rebellion: Increases user’s Critical Hit rate
Herculean Strike: Medium Physical damage to the entire party
Assault Dive: Light Physical damage on one party member
Deathbound: Heavy Physical damage to the entire party
Vicious Strike: Heavy Physical damage to the entire party
Rampage: Light Physical damage to the entire party 1x to 3x
After the battle, check around the stripper pole for a new Teddie weapon.

Void quest

Upon seeing a high school student’s image in the Midnight Channel, the Investigation Team went around Inaba to search for clues about the boy. Kanji suggested asking Dojima about it, but the detective refuses to share any information. By speaking with Adachi, however, he reveals that the police suspect had worked as a part-timer in a shop in the shopping district. The shop, Souzai Daigaku, then tells that the suspect is occasionally seen with a blond student. Finding the student, they finally identified the boy as Mitsuo Kubo.

Within the TV, Rise uses her Persona Himiko’s power to detect his whereabouts. Pointing out the location, the Team stumbled upon a video game-like area. The dungeon appeared like an old-school video game, and as the team ascends further up, the speeches within were similar to how a player character levels up i.e. “Coolness increases by +8”. Also, the floors were referred to as chapters in the game’s HUD.

After the 9th floor, the next one is not entitled “Void Quest Chapter 10” as one would expect; it is called “Endgame”. The boss (“Killing Hand”) on the 7th floor must be defeated in order to enter the door leading to the boss on the “Endgame” stage; attempting to open the door before doing so results in the game saying “The door is sealed with a mysterious power…” Speaking of the 7th floor, it is unique as the intersections between pathways can reverse the player’s direction.

When the Team managed to reach Mitsuo, however, this was not the case, as Mitsuo faces his Shadow but is unable to get it to say anything. The Shadow mutters about its empty feelings and how it and Mitsuo are the same. Mitsuo refuses to accept this fact, and the Shadow transforms into a baby-like form. Even after creating a shell of itself – an 8-bit swordsman character — and battling in a pseudo-video game way (selecting attacks from the Shin Megami Tensei menu), the Shadow was no match for the Team. Mitsuo still refuses to accept the Shadow, causing it to disappear. The Team drags an exhausted Mitsuo out of the Void Quest to interrogate him later.

Secret lab

To unlock the dungeon, go to the high school and talk to a girl in front of Classroom 1-2. Then, speak with a girl at the practice building. Next, talk to a cop at the north end of the shopping district near Konishi Liquors; he is available on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Later, talk to Chie at the Samegawa Flood Plain Riverbed, and then talk to the cop again, who reveals Naoto’s “obsession” towards the cases. Next, speak with the housewife standing in front of the Tatsuhime Shrine, and go to the shopping district South on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays to speak with a cop who talks about Naoto being “treated like a child.” With these two clues, the dungeon’s location is revealed.

The Secret Laboratory is different from the other dungeons in that the floors descend, ending at the bottom. As the Team continues downwards they are given warnings to turn back. Rise interprets this as Naoto’s refusal to mix with other people. On the sixth basement floor, the Team is stopped by a locked door requiring the Leader Card. The Team explores the dungeon to find the Research Card (in a treasure chest), and goes back a few floors until they find a locked door on the fourth basement floor. This leads to a Boss guarding the Leader Card.

After successfully defeating the “Dominating Machine,” the Team continues on until the final basement where they find Naoto confronting her other self. The “Other Naoto” spells out everything, most surprisingly the fact that Naoto is, in fact, not male. Naoto refuses to accept her other self and a fight against her shadow commences. Later, Naoto realizes that everyone must accept his or her true self and continue on with life, regardless of their appearance or personality.

This concludes their rescue, but Naoto’s words before succumbing to fatigue are sound and true; the case is far from over.

In the Persona 4 The Animation, the Secret Laboratory is destroyed by Beelzebub’s Megidolaon.

heaven

Heaven is a unique dungeon in that it is created by the suppressed emotions of two people instead of one. However, the prominent side of Heaven is the reality within the Midnight Channel created by Nanako Dojima. After Dojima finds the second threatening letter, he detains the protagonist in the police station, leaving Nanako home alone. Nanako is soon kidnapped by Taro Namatame and thrown into the TV world via the television Namatame keeps in his delivery truck. In order to escape Dojima’s pursuit, he follows Nanako into the Midnight Channel, believing it to be the ‘sanctuary’ he’s been using to ‘save’ people throughout the game.

After being thrown into the Midnight Channel, Nanako’s hidden longing for her dead mother (Chisato Dojima) manifests itself as Heaven, though the dungeon is also colored by Namatame’s Messiah complex. Inside the dungeon Nanako’s inner loneliness and attempts to be strong manifest through her voice. At the same time, Namatame’s desire to live peacefully with Mayumi Yamano and his belief that the Midnight Channel is a sanctuary against the harshness of reality is heard several times.

In contrast to the other Midnight Channel dungeons, Heaven bears the distinction of being the only dungeon sporting bright colors and dream-like surroundings, as well as a melancholic vocal theme. The surroundings reflect the innocence within Nanako’s heart, and perhaps Namatame’s good intentions. The name ‘Heaven’ symbolizes Nanako’s belief that her late mother ascended to Heaven, as well as Namatame’s personal delusions about the reality of the Midnight Channel — a safe place for those who appear on the Midnight Channel.

The protagonist cannot advance any of the Investigation Team members’ Social Links while Nanako is still detained in Heaven. Moreover, from this point onward, the Justice and Hierophant Social Links will no longer be available – however, this only applies in the original version of Persona 4 – in Persona 4 Golden, the Justice and Hierophant Social Links will be unavailable to advance until after the New Year’s Day event.

The story-wise boss of the dungeon is Kunino-sagiri, a manifestation of Namatame’s messiah complex. He believes that his actions ‘saved’ those he threw into the TV, not realizing the only thing that saved those he threw in is the actions of the protagonist’s team. However, this only reinforced his self-image as a secret hero and savior of Inaba, and eventually breaks his mind so that his Shadow can completely take over his body without materializing itself outside. Eventually it draws in the Shadows lurking inside Heaven, forming Kunino-sagiri.

This is also the place where Margaret challenges the team to a fight in order to understand the true meaning of life. Upon her defeat, she admits that her younger sister once told her she wished to leave the Velvet Room in order to find a permanent solution to the death of a young man who sacrificed his soul to save humanity.

Structure
Heaven’s color scheme changes depending on the floor. From floors 1-3, the fog has a pale blue color, giving the feeling of dawn. Floors 4-6 have a bright, cheery yellow theme, giving it the feel of noon or midday. Finally, in floors 7-9, the fog changes to orange, giving the final floors the glow of a sunset.

Heaven is one of the two dungeons which has background music with vocals; the other dungeon is Marukyu Striptease.

Magatsu inaba

Magatsu Inaba is the reality in the Midnight Channel, in which it is unique from other dungeons, as Magatsu Inaba is only available in the events of the Normal Ending Arc, in which the Protagonist must resist the temptation of killing Taro Namatame, the primary suspect of the bizarre murder case and points out the possibility of another killer.

However, the bedroom portion of the dungeon was one of the first places the protagonist, Chie and Yosuke visit during their very first visit to the Midnight Channel. Here the trio notices the scratched out posters of Misuzu Hiiragi, and make the connections between the Enka singer and the first victim who died recently, Mayumi Yamano.

Through the Investigation Team’s reanalysis of their situation, they realized that the most likely killer is none other than Tohru Adachi, the assistant of Ryotaro Dojima. Realizing this, the Team is informed that the transportation of Namatame to a secure location is happening ahead of schedule — the group rushes to the municipal hospital, where they trick Adachi into accidentally revealing his connection with the murder cases — such as how he knew the victims were thrown into the TV, and an earlier comment he made that a list of people gone ‘missing’ confirmed Namatame’s guilt of ‘murder’. In an act of desperation, Adachi runs away from them and enters the Midnight Channel as his final escape.

Tracking down Adachi, it turns out he lies within the very first reality the Protagonist, Yosuke and Chie ended up in — Mayumi Yamano’s reality, the Ominous Bedroom. Upon finding Adachi, the detective reveals his true, twisted malevolent personality, and more importantly, he confesses to be the murderer of Mayumi Yamano and Saki Konishi, the first two victims.

Adachi then reveals his master plan of overrunning the real world with fog, creating a stasis world where shadow reigns over reality and taunts the Team to enter his reality. Adachi later became surprised when the Team actually gives in to his taunts. Calling the Team “losers”, he wonders aloud why wouldn’t they take life simpler by just studying, growing up, and getting through marriage.

Hollow forest

The place that gave birth to those who answer the “desires” and “wishes for lies” of humans… was that it?”
—Naoto, Persona 4 Golden
The Hollow Forest is Marie’s reality within the Midnight Channel, created when she enters the TV world after regaining her memories. The Investigation Team is first taken to the Hollow Forest on February 12 by Margaret, who explains that she has formed a unique path between the TV in the cottage storage shed and this world, after finally locating Marie’s whereabouts. Margaret informs them that Marie has sealed herself into this dungeon for reasons unknown, and also explains that this world is currently on the verge of collapsing. Therefore, if the team does not save Marie quickly, she will disappear along with the Hollow Forest, and all memories of her will disappear from everyone’s minds.

The Hollow Forest takes an appearance similar to Yomotsu Hirasaka, as a world apparently shrouded in fog. However, there are bits and pieces of the real world seen throughout this dungeon, such as Junes signs and benches, along with haniwa and ancient Japanese artworks. This represents Marie’s origin, as a spirit from ancient Japanese times, as well as her hidden desire to stay in the real world. Each of the Hollow Forest floors are named “Memories” – Memories of Parting (1F), Pain (2F), Grief (3F), Sorrow (4F), Love (5F), Suffering (6F), Anger (7F), Loneliness (8F), Invitation (9F) and Meeting (10F).

Unlike the other dungeons in the game, the Hollow Forest features several special restrictions while traversing the dungeon:

The party is only allowed to use items and equipment found within the Hollow Forest.
Each party member that had a turn in a fight will have their SP halved after each fight. However, there is special equipment that can be found within the dungeon in order to restore SP and to gain other beneficial effects.
The party is not allowed to use Traesto to leave the Hollow Forest.
On the floors Memories of Parting (1F), Sorrow (4F) and Anger (7F), the party might encounter Shadows when breaking the “seals” to continue. Shadows may also appear from both regular chests and locked chests. Also, there are two “mini-bosses” that the party must face prior to the final boss, instead of the usual one.

After Marie is rescued, the dungeon begins to disappear as it no longer needs to fulfill its purpose. When the party escapes through the TV connected to the dungeon, its screen shatters.

Bonus dungeon

Search for the truth. Next go to Junes where you’ll be again told to return to your house. Select ‘NO’, ‘I’m not finished yet’ and then ‘Yes’. Finally chose ‘there’s something missing’ and watch the scene that follows. After that head to the riverbank and talk with the characters you meet there.

5) Go to the Velvet Room (twice). Next go to the Velvet Room to receive a special item from Igor. If you want to face the super secret second-playthrough-only boss then as soon as you leave turn around and go back into the Velvet room where Margaret will give you another item.

6) Speak to the woman. I won’t say who, it would ruin it, but at this point it should be obvious what to do next.

7) Super Secret Boss fight. Now is the point where you can fight the secret boss. The item Margaret has given you tells you where to go. Good luck for this one, you’ll need it.

8) Search for… Either after you’ve spoken to the man or after you’ve fought the super secret boss you will be ready for the final part of the game. Speak to Rise and chose ‘Search for…’. The rest is self explanatory.

9) Enjoy the extended ending. Seriously, it’s mind blowing how much amazing content has been hidden away at the end of Persona 4: Golden. If you’ve followed these steps so far then there’s nothing left to worry about, there’s nothing you can miss out on now so enjoy the rest of the game!

And that’s it. If you’d like you can check out my full review of the game here, there’s also an anime based on Persona 4 that I’d thoroughly recommend (full review here).

Finally, once you’ve mastered the game be sure to check out my own thoughts on the ending, although beware, if you’re not yet done with the story then this post has major spoilers!

All possible endings

Multiple endings are something of a Persona series tradition, and Persona 4 Golden has a different potential endings – but only one true ending, the good ending. To get to that you few have to first navigate to the normal ending – then jump through some extra hoops on top of that.

On this handy little guide we explain how to see all of the story content right through to the True Ending and Epilogue of Persona 4 Golden, plus detail on the secret extra dungeons and boss battles – which do differ a little to the original PS2 version of Persona 4.

We’ve tried to present the path to the True Ending in as spoiler-free a way as possible, but given the nature of this guide, it will contain minor, context-free spoilers…

Persona-4-Golden-PC_True-Ending.png

How to get the Normal and True Ending in Persona 4 Golden
In order to get the best possible ending in Persona 4 Golden, you’ll have to control your temper. The ending you get will depend upon some choices you make during the story – a single moment which can determine if the game ends early or goes on for many more hours…

As the story of P4G progresses, you will eventually find yourself facing a big choice on December 3 (12/3). When this choice rolls around, you’ll have to answer in a specific way to determine your ending.

To avoid the bad ending, answer as follows when prompted – there are seven dialogue choices in a row, so we’re numbering them to leave them as vague as possible:

Any Choice
Wait a second here…
We’re missing something.
Their true feelings.
Something’s been bothering me.
We’re missing something…
Calm the hell down!
If you answer differently, the game till time-skip forward to March 20 and you’ll experience the Bad Ending of Persona 4 Golden. If you answer correctly, you’ll roll on to December 5 with a new objective – and be on your way to the True Ending.

Much later on, you’ll have to name who the True Killer is – and this leads towards the full ending. You can detour to a bad ending again here, but based on the research you’ve been doing in-game, you will know the answer. You’ll have the option to tell your friends about your suspicions as to the killer’s identity. If you don’t do this, there’s a unique ending, but it is not the good ending.

This leads to one final dungeon and sets you on the final road for the True Ending.

How to get the True Ending Epilogue in Persona 4 Golden
Once you’ve seen off the events of Persona 4 in full, time will fast forward to March. This is where your final decision about an ending lies. You’re guaranteed the normal, good ending because you solved the mystery, but if you want the true ending, you need to act in a specific way during this final day of the game.

Specifically, you’ll be tasked with talking to everybody who you’ve got a maximum rank social link with before you leave town. This should be most s-link characters if you followed our P4G social link guide. Here’s everybody’s locations, for the record:

Chariot / Chie, Lovers / Rise, Tower / Shu, Aeon / Marie: Shopping District South
Priestess / Yukiko: The Amagi Inn, reached via the Bus Stop.
Devil / Sayoko: The Hospital, reached via the Bus Stop.
Temperance / Eri: The Day Care, reached via the Bus Stop.
Hermit / Fox: The Shrine, Shopping District North
Emperor / Kanji, Strength / Atheletes, Hanged Man / Naoki: Shopping District North
Justice / Nanako, Heirophant / Dojima: Outside Dojima’s house; speak to papa Dojima and pick the second option.
Magician / Yosuke, Star / Teddie: Junes Food Court
Death / Hisano: Riverbank
Moon / Ai: School 1F
Fortune / Naoto: School Learning Building 1F
Sun / Music or Drama: The Club Venue, School
Once you’ve talked to everyone, at that point the game will tell you to ‘return to your house and get ready for tomorrow’ – do not do this!

Instead, select ‘No’, then return to the Junes Food Court. Examine the elevator. Refuse to go home again, selecting ‘No’, and then select ‘I’m not finished yet’ and ‘Yes’. Finally, pick ‘There’s something missing’.

Next, head to the Riverbank to speak to Dojima and Nanako for another scene. Then head to the Velvet Room to get the Orb of Clarity from Igor. On a second play-through on New Game+, this scene also unlocks a secret boss.

Head to the Shopping District South and to the gas station. Speak to the attendant. Keep talking until you get the choices right to learn something about the attendant; you can now access the unique dungeon Yomotsu Hirasaka.

You can now head to the Midnight Channel and beat the Yomotsu Hirasaka dungeon to learn the ultimate truth. Once you enter the midnight channel, it’s a point of no return – so you might want to ensure your equipment and such is as you want it first.Defeat the final, final boss to get the true, ultimate ending to Persona 4 Golden.

Unlocking the other Ultimate Challenges: Hollow Forest Dungeon and Margaret’s Secret Boss
As a side note, there are two more ultimate challenges you can unlock if you so wish. They have no bearing on the ending you receive, but they’re worth making a note of:

Hollow Forest is a unique secret dungeon associated with Marie. This was added to the ‘Golden’ version of Persona 4, and is unlocked by maxing out Marie’s Social Link relationship. It has extra story and is the most challenging dungeon in the game.
Margaret’s Super Boss Battle is only available in New Game Plus. You’ll need to go through towards the True Ending in your second play-through just the same, but then visit the Velvet Room twice towards the end – once to get the Orb of Clarity from Igor, and once again to visit Margaret. She’ll give you an item that will explain how to challenge Persona 4 Golden’s ultimate battle.

Persona 4 Dancing all night

aking place roughly a month following the epilogue of Persona 4 Golden, Rise Kujikawa, who has since returned to the idol industry, asks Yu Narukami and all her other friends to dance alongside her in the upcoming Love Meets Bonds Festival. As Yu, along with Naoto Shirogane, join up with Rise at her dance studio and are introduced to fellow idol Kanami Mashita, they learn that Kanami’s idol group, Kanamin Kitchen, has mysteriously gone missing. Looking into a rumor concerning a video that shows up on the LMB website at midnight, allegedly showing a dead idol, Yu, Rise, and Naoto check out the video themselves and are sucked into the Midnight Stage, a world separate from the TV world they are used to. There, they discover a mysterious entity is using strange ribbons and a song to force Shadows to form a bond with her, effectively brainwashing anyone who comes into contact with the ribbons. Unable to use violence in this world, the group discover that they can use the power of song and dance to express their feelings to the Shadows, freeing them from the voice’s control.

The next day, as the rest of the Investigation Team are assembled at the dance studio, the mysterious voice attempts to pull Kanami into the Midnight Stage, but ends up grabbing producer Kyoka Ochimizu instead. Following in after them, the Investigation Team split up in order to rescue the captured members of Kanamin Kitchen as the voice attempts to force a fake bond with them. As each member is rescued and taken to a safe dressing room, the team discover pages from a diary. Coming across Ochimizu as well, the group deduce that the world is somehow tied to Yuko Osada, an idol who committed suicide years ago, while the Shadows they encounter are people who got dragged into the world after watching the video. Back in the real world, Kanami comes across Ryotaro and Nanako Dojima, who become curious about the whereabouts of Yu and the others. As Dojima helps Kanami look into the strange circumstances surrounding the incident, Nanako is recognized for her dancing talent and is chosen to appear alongside Kanami in the LMB Festival. During this time, Kanami experiences painful flashbacks as she ponders over the lyrics of her upcoming song, “Calystegia”, which was originally intended for Yuko. To her shock, Kanami eventually discovers that the diary she had been carrying all this time belonged to Yuko, who she had witnessed killing herself when she came to the studio to audition years ago. Traumatized over the repressed memories, Kanami is overcome by despair and pulled into the Midnight Stage.

Back in the Midnight Stage, Ochimizu, who was Yuko’s producer back when she was alive, is swayed by the voice but brought to her senses by Yu and the others. Discovering the song sung by the Shadows to be a reversed recording of Calystegia, the team discover the voice to be a Shadow version of Kanami, who has pulled the real Kanami, along with the entire LMB audience, into the Midnight Stage. Although the team manage to save Kanami and bring her to her senses, the Shadow Kanami, revealed to be a god of desire named Mikuratana-no-Kami, bonds itself with the rest of the audience. Determined to get their feelings across, Rise combines her strength with Kanami and the Kanamin Kitchen girls to power up her Persona, Himiko, transforming it into a giant stage for Yu and the others to express themselves. Finally understanding their feelings, Mikuratana-no-Kami releases everyone and returns them to the real world, where Kanami prepares to finish off the festival with a performance of Calystegia.In the game, players engage in a “dance battle” with the Shadows in the mysterious world of the “Mayonaka Stage.” There will be four difficulties — Easy, Normal, Hard, and an unlockable All Night. In story mode, it will be possible to make things even easier. Clearing a song will cause the Investigation Team’s Personas to appear and clear away the Shadows.

Modifiers also exist to make the game easier or harder, and affect your final score and Persona $ reward accordingly.

All characters in the game have multiple costumes, which can be purchased with currency earned for clearing songs. Additional DLC costumes, tracks, accessories, characters and song backgrounds are available.

In Free Dance mode, the player can pick any character and their costumes, but not the song, as each track is tied to a specific character. Support characters, who provide unique choreographies for the main character, can also be chosen. There are also a number of songs which are exclusive to Free Dance mode, including all the DLC tracks.

Persona shadow of labyrith

Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth is the first of its kind: a crossover title that blends together role-playing series Persona and dungeon crawling series Etrian Odyssey. As if that weren’t enough, it features the casts from Persona 3 and Persona 4 together at last. Available today, it’s also the first time you can play a Persona game on your Nintendo 3DS — and believe me, you’ll want to.

If you’re unfamiliar with one or both franchises, however, you’re in for a long haul. Persona Q’s adorable, chibi world packs a cruel punch in terms of difficulty. To help get you started, I’ve included some tips for beginners and lessons learned during my time with the game.

EXPERIMENT WITH PARTY MEMBERS EARLY
Persona Q is overflowing with great characters to use in your party — 17, in fact, if you include your non-removable protagonist. You can swap four in and out. Unless you’re determined to level each and every one of them, it’s to your advantage to pick a team early and stick with it. There are a few game mechanics that make this entirely possible, despite the elemental strengths of your party, but we’ll get to that later.

persona q
The game’s combat system determines these characters as best suited for either the front or back rows; think blunt-force attacks vs. ranged or healing moves. Your back party members are unlikely to hit as hard as those up front, so consider choosing characters with high SP to deal skill damage or act as healers.

LEARN TO BOOST, AND BOOST OFTEN
Unlike in other Persona games, striking an enemy’s weak point in Persona Q won’t grant you an additional move. Instead, your character receives a boost for a single turn. While boosted, your skills cost nothing — no SP, no HP, nothing. This is a great way to conserve your energy early in the game and in long fights (which there will definitely be a few of), so learn and exploit weaknesses with the lowest-costing attack you can and ride the free wave. A word of caution: If your character is hit, they’ll lose their boost.

KNOW WHEN YOU SHOULD (AND SHOULDN’T) RUN
It’s fair to assume that you’re going to be doing a lot of running away from fights in Persona Q, thanks to its highly leveled enemies known as FOEs. FOEs appear on-screen, as opposed to in random encounters, and pack more of a punch than your typical fight (or even boss fights, in some cases). These enemies are often used as part of puzzles; they gate off paths you want to take and force you to think around them.

You’ll generally want to avoid FOEs in your current dungeon, but that doesn’t mean they’re unbeatable. In fact, if you’re up to the challenge, there are huge benefits to taking them on. FOEs are worth more experience than your typical battle, but more importantly, defeating one will always grant you a high-level Persona typically beyond your reach. If you start to feel overwhelmed, you can still run away mid-fight.

Defeating FOEs in your path can also be a last-ditch effort to brute-force your way through an area you might be otherwise stuck on. It’s not the most elegant solution, but it is still a solution.

ALWAYS CARRY A SPARE
Although this is great advice for consumable items like Goho-Ms, which whisk you safely out of any dungeon, in this instance it’s good advice to apply to your sub-Personas. Sub-Personas are a new feature in Persona Q that allow you to equip any character in your party with a Persona that supplements their main, and yes, it is the best thing ever.

IT’S NOT THE MOST ELEGANT SOLUTION

With sub-Personas, it’s incredibly easy to round out your team’s elemental strengths and weaknesses. You can’t swap them out during battle, but it’s a good idea to keep a few super-loaded Personas with varied abilities ready to go while you’re in dungeons. Which brings us to …

KEEP YOUR PERSONAS ON POINT
The ability to fuse Personas in the Velvet Room is back in Persona Q, and it’s one you should use often. You’ll pick up spares after battles, particularly when you fight FOEs, but fusing is the fastest way to unlock powerful new Personas.

BUT IT IS STILL A SOLUTION.

The game will offer you suggestions on which Personas to fuse; in my experience, these recommendations are very useful. You’ll also eventually gain the ability to sacrifice Personas for extra experience or a single skill.

In general, it’s a good idea to start shopping around for new Personas when your current one runs out of skills to learn. I liked to keep at least one slot open to welcome new Personas I’d find in battle, so don’t be shy about sacrificing or booting a few of the duds. Any lost Persona can always be recalled with the Compendium, though you’ll want to make sure it’s updated.

PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR SUPPORT TEAM
Just like in their respective games, ♥♥♥♥♥ and Rise will act as your home base support team. Persona Q is great about letting you customize your support experience, and it’s one you should absolutely experiment with. Your initial support character will depend on which protagonist you choose, but once the casts combine you can select either girl to provide her voice and/or specific set of skills in the field and in battle.

♥♥♥♥♥ and Rise directly affect your Leader Skills, or special abilities that use the hit meter to the right of your screen. Initially, ♥♥♥♥♥ can provide a recurring full-party heal, while Rise allows one character to act first in battle. Your options will increase as each level their Persona, but sub-Personas can be particularly helpful here.

persona q
Many Personas have skills that include a small circle with a plus sign in the middle — these are Leader Skills, available only to your support team. Some are applicable in battle, like healing skills, while others will help you in the labyrinth. One of the navigational skills I frequently used allowed me to spot shortcuts within dungeons before I physically encountered them.

♥♥♥♥♥ and Rise can both equip sub-Personas, so make sure you’re tailoring their support skills to the role you’ve assigned them.

DON’T UPGRADE YOUR WEAPONS EVERY TIME
Persona Q puts your average retailer to shame when it comes to stocking new items. Each time you return from the labyrinth, it’s likely that you’ll have materials to sell. While these are great for bringing in cash, they’re more important for unlocking new items in the shop. It’s tempting to buy every new thing the second it opens up, but you’re better off curbing your spending habits.

Look at it this way: That new sword you bought will probably be obsolete in one or two more trips if you’re efficient at exploring. I started my game by obsessively buying every new thing I could, and I found myself broke with very little to show. Equip your party with new gear when it makes a difference, and save your cash for future upgrades, Persona recalls and consumable items.

However, if you absolutely must buy everything…

persona q
POWER SPOTS ARE YOUR MONEY-SPEWING BEST FRIEND
Power spots are your best shot for raking in quick cash. They refresh every time you re-enter a labyrinth, so if you’re looking to up your cash flow, make a note of them on your map and visit often.

MAP METICULOUSLY, AND IF IT SOUNDS IMPORTANT, WRITE IT DOWN
One of the easiest ways to get lost or stuck in Persona Q is thanks to its biggest contribution from Etrian Odyssey: Mapmaking. Wandering through each labyrinth will record the steps you take, but it’s up to you to fill in the rest, e.g. walls, doors, switches and everything in between. It’s less of a nuisance than it sounds, but you’ll want to be careful and specific with your mapping.

Hastily penciling in a wall where there isn’t one is a fast way to end up lost, and a misstep I myself committed. Mark down spots of interest and tinker with the many cartography options you have. A few of my favorite features let you draw paths to auto-walk, leave directional cues or even jot down written notes on specific squares.

Speaking of which, note-taking (or even snapping pictures) of clues is something

Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth Walkthrough and Guide

Welcome to the Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth walkthrough and guide. This walkthrough will cover all labyrinths and include maps where possible.

Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth is the sequel to the first Persona Q game on the Nintendo 3DS, which was released back in 2014. That game included Persona 3 and 4 characters, with Persona Q2 adding Persona 5 characters into the mix in an original story that takes place during the events of the Persona 5 story. For those unfamiliar with the Persona Q games, they play very similarly to Atlus’ Etrian Odyssey titles, which are dungeon crawlers. All of the action takes place on the top screen, while the player is able to draw the maps of the dungeons traversed on the bottom screen.

Important: While spoilers will generally be avoided for the actual game, it should be noted that Persona Q2 takes place during the events of Persona 5, so there are some spoilers from that game present in this one.
This walkthrough will guide you through the main story, while attempting to walk you through all of the side quests. There will also be lists for all of the Persona, how to fuse them, and all of the skills they learn.

Blaz blue crosstag battle persona 4 arena

Persona Arena series is spin-off fighting game sequel to the original RPG of Persona games co-developed with Arc System Works’ Team BlazBlue, starting from continuing the story of Persona 4 (mainly its Golden update), with additional characters from Persona 3. In the past during Arc System Works’ foundation of its first original IP Guilty Gear series, Atlus had a publishing history on the North American release of the first Guilty Gear game, Guilty Gear: The Missing Link. It all started when Persona 4 director Katsura Hashino wanted to make Persona fighting game, until BlazBlue came out, as he began to request Arc System Works for this game development in 2008, which eventually be accepted for their collaborations, with Atlus in charge of the plot, script and character designs, while Arc System Works has Team BlazBlue handle the gameplay system. Arc System Works announced in 2018 that the future third Persona Arena series is currently planned.

In BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle, when the user’s Persona is hit, the user’s health will deplete as well, akin to the effect that was first shown in Persona 4 Animation and Manga adaptions instead of the having Persona 4 Arena’s separated Persona Health Bar.

I am Thou… Thou Art I… Poem

“I am thou… Thou art I… From the sea of thy soul, I come…”
“I shall lend you my strength…”
“The bearer of the inferno that burns away impurity, Vulcanus!”
“Thy heart that beats for thy friends lights mine holy flame… I am thou… Thou art I… I am Vulcanus, awakened to the ancient fire…”
“Ruler of the blazing sun and blue skies, Apollo…”
“I am the brilliant mother, Maia…”
“I am Orpheus, master of strings…”
“From the very moment of my emergence, I have been a guiding light shed to illuminate thy path…I am the original god…Izanagi-no-Okami.”
“I am the one who dwells in the rift between human consciousness and unconsciousness. I am you. You are me… I am always within you, watching over you. Farewell…”
“Call upon my name, and release thy rage! Show the strength of thy will to ascertain all on thine own, though thou be chained to Hell itself! I am the pillager of twilight, Arsène!”
“Thou shalt have our blessings
“Thou art I… And I am thou…
Thou hast established a new bond…
Thou shalt be blessed when creating
Personas of the (Arcana’s Name) Arcana…”
“Thou art I… And I am thou…
Thou hast established a new bond…
It brings thee closer to the truth…
“Thou art I… And I am thou…
Thou hast seen how bonds may change…
The bond that hath changed… It is thy
first step in learning the truth.
Thou must bear thine inner power of
“The Jester” becoming “Hunger””
“I am thou… Thou art I…
Thou hast acquired a new vow…
It shall become the wings of rebellion
That breaketh thy chains of captivity.
With the birth of (Arcana’s Name) Persona
I have obtained the winds of blessing that
shall lead to freedom and new power…”
“I am thou, thou art I…
My view stands renewed in pursuit of the truth.
In breaking free of doubt, the chain that impedes
thee, is thy strength of heart made manifest.
With the rebirth of the Faith Persona,
Thou hast obtained the winds of blessing that
shall guide thee to the furthest depths.”
“Thou art I… And I am thou…
The bond thou hast nurtured hath
finally matured.
The innermost power of the (Arcana’s Name)
Arcana hath been set free.

We bestow upon thee the ability to
create (Persona’s Name), the ultimate form
of the (Arcana’s Name) Arcana…”
“Thou art I… And I am thou…
Thou hast established a genuine bond…
The innermost power of the (Arcana’s Name)
Arcana hath been set free.
”Thou art I… And I am thou…
Thou hast established a genuine bond…
These genuine bonds… shall be your
eyes to see the truth.
“I am thou, thou art I
Thou hast turned a vow into a blood oath.
Thy bond shall become the wings of rebellion
and break the yoke of thy heart.
Thou hast awakened to the ultimate secret.
