You should use the Recipe Generator from the fusion calculator. Just search for "persona 3 reload fusion calculator" on Google, enable all dlc personas on the "fusion settings" tab if you have them, and lastly go to the "recipe generator" tab and choose the persona and skills you want it to have.

You can just use a fusion calculator. Pass down the skills that you need, but don’t have the skill cards of. Me personally, I got Concentrate, Debilitate, and Heat Riser from Cybele. Then took Resist Physical from Lucifer, cuz if I remember correctly, he’s the only one who learns that skill. I had skill cards for Spell Master, Resist Light/Dark, and Charge

The Shinjiro clip was from a separate save to showcase his maximum potential via modding. (Start NG+ in Hard mode to carry over everything and then switch the difficulty to Merciless with Mod Menu). If you want to grind him to 99 without mods, you have to solo grind to earn more EXP for the protagonist until you unlock Scarlet Havoc, and then try to fight the Reaper duo with Shinji.

@@Zrego that makes sense, alright then thanks for the reply 👍

It's a PVE SP game, there's no meta. Siegfried with his crits/deathbound build is OP as elemental single target loki. The thing that makes physical builds "better" is that you can boost your crits and they do stack (Crit boost, amp, Slash Driver (from Cendrillion), Apt pupil and Autoreb) and Crits do affect bosses. Also, thats all maxed out. Anyways, my point again, there's no meta on a singleplayer PVE game

@@xEnzo98well said, do what you like and what suits you, not gonna sit here and tell people to run a certain party of this one specific build since genuinely anything can be op if done right.

In all honesty, all you need to do is to use things that are best suited for the task. Just doing high damage isn't enough, setting up is just as important too.

@@xEnzo98 I never understood people's insane push back on knowing which characters or team are meta/ best teams. stuff like that exist even in singleplayer games, as long as you have choices. there's nothing wrong with knowing that, it's not like you're forced to use them if you find out.

Passives always will only work if the persona that has said passive is equipped, another clearer example would if you have a persona with auto-Mataru (increases dmg at the start of battle) you need to have it equipped as your starting persona otherwise the passive won’t kick in if you have another persona selected as the starting one.

The main character always gets max HP and SP when they reach level 99

@@joshuabergman3292 wrong, he reaches around 580-600 depending on how much passive raising you've done by the time he hits 99 assuming you havent farmed it out. This is true in any of the recent persona games and even in SMT V, in persona 5 and persona 5 royal, you can just work out in leblanc, the gym, or meditate in kichijoji, in p4g its not worth the grind since you can just make it through margaret with absorb skills but you still only reach the 600 range at 99, and in 3 there's little events like the computer ones I mentioned and major arcana cards in shuffle time, I know how it would be done in theory, I asked the question to know how to do it most efficiently, I've had my main character reach level 99 several times in all 3 modern persona games and if you'd like, you can look at someone else's fight with elizabeth and see that despite being level 99, they're only in the late 500s to mid 600s HP range. Sorry for the yap but I thought I should let you know in case you were farming levels thinking it would happen as soon as you hit 99.

Fortune and Chariot cards give 18 HP per tartarus visit. While Strength and Hermit will give 12 SP. Going to all the days in January alongside the link episodes and ending at 1/30 will give you 28 days to grind HP and SP.

This is purely an opinion based on how strength is better than magic in this game: Junpei > Aigis > Koromaru > Shinjiro > Akihiko > Magic users

Armor of Light for humans, Soul of Athena for Aigis, Aura Dog Suit for Koro

@@Zrego thanks man I appreciate you taking the time to respond

You don’t have that dog in you

Get both her St and Ma stats to 99, make sure you have slash boost+amp+driver and multitarget boost

@@Zrego I ended up beating the reaper. I think maybe player level influences theurgy damage, as with 99 strength and magic on my persona I couldn't one shot, but as soon as I leveled up from 66 to 88 it was suddenly possible to kill it instantly.

@@ObjectiveGarbage yes level does affect them

I did it off recording.

@@ZregoSkill issue.
