When one talks about some of the greatest JRPGs ever released, it goes without saying that Persona 5 Royal would be an inevitable part of this conversation. Persona 5 was an excellent game in itself, and Persona 5 Royal decided to augment things even further with a whole slew of additions, revamps, fixes, and everything else along the same lines. The end result is easily the greatest modern-day JRPG to have released, and one of the best PS4 exclusives by a country mile.
Persona 5 Royal integrates life sim mechanics with the core of a JRPG, integrating both these aspects in a seamless manner. The free time that players get during their virtual life in Tokyo is a great outlet to do any number of things… but players shouldn’t take this time for granted. After all, a big part of what makes Persona 5 Royal so fleshed out is that it has too many things to do… and most players might not have the time to explore every aspect of the game.
So, in order to use one’s time more effectively in Persona 5 Royal, here are ten things to keep in mind for the same.
10 Keep A Stock Of Bio-Nutrients For A Quick Kindness Boost
One thing that most Persona 5 Royal players might not be aware of is the fact that the plant in their room can actually be tended to… without any time passing!
By keeping a stock of Bio Nutrients, Joker can tend to the plant at regular intervals to get a small boost to Kindness, and still have time left to engage in some other activity as well.
9 Check A Guide For The Right Classroom Answers
While checking a guide might be heresy in any game, one can still make an exception for Persona 5 Royal, since some of the answers that Joker needs to give can be incredibly obtuse.
Giving the wrong answer will lead to the player missing out on a crucial Knowledge stat boost, so it’s recommended that they avoid the same and cheat just this once to optimize their game somewhat.
8 Always Do The Crossword When It’s Available
The Crossword puzzle is a new inclusion in Persona 5 Royal and a fairly simple one at that. One simply needs to check the leftmost table in Cafe Leblanc periodically for an orange pamphlet, which only appears on certain days.
The difficulty of these Crosswords varies by quite a bit, and figuring out the answer leads to the Knowledge stat being boosted by one point and some interesting trivia coming up on the word in question as well.
And — as is the case with the Plant Nutrients — doing so won’t pass the day either!
7 Focus On Certain Special Confidants
There are many Confidants in Persona 5 Royal that the player can interact with to progress their relationship and also gain a boost to Persona Fusion. However, there are some Confidants that can also provide the player with some useful abilities to save up on time.
The Death Confidant allows for SP recovery items to be bought, making one’s traversal through a Palace and Mementos infinitely easier. The Fortune Confidant lets players rank up in other Confidants without losing time. Finally, the Temperance Confidant will do various chores for you, negating the need to waste time doing the same.
There are a number of other Confidants with some useful benefits too, although these ones are perhaps the most useful ones that help you save up on time.
6 Make Sure That One Of Your Persona’s Arcana Matches The Confidant You Hang Out With
One golden rule when it comes to hanging out with any Confidant is that Joker should have a Persona in his arsenal whose Arcana matches the Confidant you wish to hang out with.
This makes said Confidant rank up even faster, preventing the player from wasting days just hanging around with a Confidant without furthering their progress — a boon in a game like Persona 5 Royal, where time is of the essence.
5 Buy A Relevant Gift For The Confidant In Question
Of course, if the player has no other option than to aimlessly hang out with the Confidant, then a surefire way to boost relations would be to give an appropriate gift.
Always keep a gift handy at all times, and check the guide in order to figure out the best gifts for each character.
4 Always Carry A Book Around
Along with gifts, another thing that players should carry around is books. While reading them in the morning or night is definitely a colossal waste of time, it’s their usefulness during the metro travel that should be kept in mind.
If Joker gets a seat on the subway, then he can read a book without wasting any time, which is a great way to increase stats in a hassle-free manner.
3 Play Darts As Often As You Can
Persona 5 introduced a new area in the game called Kichijoji, where the player can head to the Penguin Sniper to play darts.
Doing this is highly recommended since it improves the Baton Pass rank of each party member, improves the Confidant ranking of said members, and increases Joker’s Proficiency as well. It basically kills three birds with one stone, which is quite useful when it comes to effective time management.
2 Gather Up A Bunch Of Requests Before Heading To Mementos
Going to Mementos every single time the player receives a quest can be tempting, but it’s not recommended in the slightest.
Instead, it’s a better use of time to go to Mementos after racking up a bunch of requests. This ensures that the player can take care of multiple requests in one fell swoop, which allows the player to save some days and work on something else — like a stat boost or a Confidant ranking — instead.
1 Make It A Point To Finish Palaces In One Day
Mementos isn’t the only dungeon where players can — and should — spend time. Another rule of thumb to help save up on time is to complete a Palace as much as the story allows in one day.
While this might sound exhausting, Persona 5 Royal makes this endeavor easier with the introduction of Will Seeds, which restore a bit of SP to the entire party once they’re collected. This ensures that party members aren’t too exhausted throughout the trek, making the act of completing the Palace way more manageable.
