“I was merciful”
Goro Akechi – Persona 5 Royal
100% Completion Infographic | Persona 5 Royal
Yes, we’re back with yet another 100% Completion graphic, this time focusing on Persona Royal. Were it not obvious by the content included, and indeed the amount of articles we’ve written on the topic, it’s one of our favourite games of all time, up there with Suikoden 2 and Skies of Arcadia. There’s truly something…
Ideal Accessories for Every Character | Persona 5 Royal
Unlike the majority of RPG games, Accessories are given a great value in the Persona series. Where others may confer simple beneficial effects, like immunity to an element or a reduction in damage taken, those found in Atlas’ most prized series can completely change a party member. Sure, there are the usual damage reductions and…
The 34 Best Looking Persona | Persona 5 Royal
Truthfully, how a Persona looks makes all the difference. You can find the perfect combination of skills, traits and statistics on a Persona, but if it looks like trash you’re really not going to enjoy it quite as much. Luckily the artists and designers at Atlus know what they’re doing, and along with making the…
The 5 Best Healing Persona | Persona 5 Royal
Health restoration is an inescapable element of the RPG genre, Persona games included. No matter your preparation, evasiveness or personal skill levels, your party members will inevitably lose health, and thus the requirement for a healer comes to light. Unlike the SMT games that spawned it, the Persona series always gives you a ‘canon’ healer…
The 5 Best Defensive Persona | Persona 5 Royal
Grabbing yourself a defensive persona in P5R might sound a little unusual – the battle system is all about exploiting weaknesses surely, so why bother with defence? Long time players of the Shin Megami series will know that there are always situations that call for defence, especially on higher difficulty levels, though in the particular…
The 5 Best Almighty Persona | Persona 5 Royal
Unique in their absence of immunity, the Almighty series of spells are tremendously powerful in Persona 5 Royal. In fact, this particular spell type started out life in Shin Megami Tensei 2, where they dealt large amounts of physical damage to all enemies, for the most part. Since then the spells have evolved to include…
The 5 Best Psy Persona | Persona 5 Royal
Making it’s first appearance in the Persona series, the Psy set of spells are yet another way to inflict magical damage on your opponents. The history of this particular spell type actually starts back in the Shin Megami series, though it’s likely to be most familiar to players of the Devil Summoner games. Their place…
The 5 Best Nuke Persona | Persona 5 Royal
Making a jump to P5 from Persona 2, the Nuke series of spells is the next in our sights. Having even more spells at your disposal can only be a good thing, but we’ll admit that Nuke in particular stands out from the crowd, thanks to their ability to Technical enemies suffering from Burn, Shock…
The 5 Best Ailment Persona | Persona 5 Royal
Inflicting ailments on your opponents is a key part of any Persona game. Whether it’s making them fall asleep and rendering them functionally useless until awoken, or making them fume with rage to disable their spell casting ability, they all serve a purpose. The majority of the time these spells are reserved for those most…
The 5 Best Curse Persona | Persona 5 Royal
Next up in our P5R Persona breakdown is the Curse type. This particular spell type behaves similarly to the Bless types we wrote about previously: It’s spells top out at the ‘Heavy’ type too, but it’s supported by a selection of instant death attacks. Once again we’ll lament the usefulness of said instant death attacks…
The 5 Best Bless Persona | Persona 5 Royal
The Bless type of Persona is the first to mark a real difference in the spell types of Persona 5 Royal. Where our prior elemental choices scaled all the way up to the ‘Severe’ rank of spells, the Bless and Curse types do not, rather they include a secondary set of spells that have a…
The 5 Best Wind Persona | Persona 5 Royal
The Technical overhaul in Persona 5 Royal has increased the prevalence of all elemental attacks, Wind included. Previously you could only get yourself a Technical by using a Wind element spell on an enemy afflicted with the Burn status, but thanks to the addition of the Technical Book – ‘Knowing the Heart’, purchased from Jinbocho…
