"Mr. Universe" > E/Fe/Pan/Poi/R/Sil
The "Antenna Monster" has no specific weakness.
The "Cracked Friend" > I/D/Fear/Panic/R/Sil; it takes two turns to dunk on the party; recommend swapping Red out for Black if Orange is Healer build

"Top Gun" > F/D/Poi; recommend Red for Amrita & Green if has Counter/strike; recommend Makarakarn/Makara-corn for Ma-dyne set; Black Frost is particularly useful due to incidental heals; the Invigorate line compensates for Mute Ray.
"Halo" > L/D; after atmospheric changes, non-Alm magic is useless until an element is chosen; recommend Light-proof Personae for God's Judgement & Invigorate # for Spirit Drain; Blue is useful for versatility.

Skills
Dekaja can counter Heat Riser, but not Magic or Power Charge.A single-target elemental dmg skill is better than a multi-target skill of the same type and lower dmg class. The opposite is true for healing abilities, since enemies don't tend to focus fire. Either a target is by itself, or you can chain between similar enemies. Thankfully, a Null/Repel/Drain resistance mixed with a Weakness doesn't drain your turns as in Nocturne, but it's still a pain. This doesn't carry over to variants of Mudo & Hama, bc most enemies don't seem to be immune and it can theoretically clear a group to save the IT's collective sorry hides.
For the love of Izanagi, don't try to make a Jack-of-All-Stats as regards damage types. Only one ally pulls it off and the corresponding skill pool is notably shallow. Being a "Wild Card" means you can afford to swap between Crippling Overspecializations. I'm on NG+ rn, but look at what I did to poor Pale Rider before I learned better in comparison to Nebiros.
I wasn't paying attn to Marge's message about "Don't overload the chars", so I tried to get several high dmg skills on one Persona. Not only is it ill-advised, but like, you can only pass on so many skills at once. Basically, pick a type of damage/kill and roll with it (ex: Ghastly Wail + Evil Smile + Fear/Ailment Boost) and then fill the other slots with passives.
Funny thing happened; an enemy Makarakarn'd itself, thereby reflecting one magic attack, and I hit it with an Electric attack that Lilith reflects as well. Apparently it doesn't ping back and forth but just treats the second Repel in the sequence like a Null.
