The journey through the mysterious alleys and bustling classrooms of Persona 5 Royal has come to the Xbox Game Pass and PC nowadays. Therefore, players queuing up to get in on the action of playing as the Phantom Thief who has been forced to change schools after being accused of crimes. The juggling of the two lives is not easy and you come across a litany of characters in your quest to clear the name.
Additionally, there are methods to increase your stats level to the maximum of 99 across the board. It takes time but the rewards are sweet as you will be virtually unbeatable towards the latter portion of the game.
However, as you continue playing, there are Confidants, who are kinds of Social Links that will benefit you in a number of ways. In that regard, the following guide will help players in understanding how to gel with Confidants and earn the required amount of items from them.
Persona 5 Royal: What time to meet Confidants
As mentioned above, there will be many Confidants for you to interact with whenever you are not in the Palaces. However, you will have to be careful in what kind of ways you are going around with Confidants given that they are time-bound and will be hard to talk with on some days.
The most common way to meet up with Confidants is when they message you regarding the same, but the option to voluntarily meet them also exists.
- You can check out places on the map containing blue cards and press Square to look up everyone who is present in that area
- There will be “Up!” written if you can level up together or it will be grey if the social links are unmatched or on the other hand, you have not interacted with them since a requirement has been fulfilled
- For players who get only a blue card and nothing else, then you will have to keep on interacting with them to rank up.
The Confidants appear and disappear based on the days, months, the corresponding ranks, and even the weather plus your progress in the story. Another great tip is to complete your tasks at the Palaces, which will calm the nerves of the Confidants in order to meet you.
Persona 5 Royal: Where to meet Confidants and how to better your rank
A key area of interaction depends upon where you want to meet your Confidants. It can give you better ranks and increase your stats as well. You will also have the chance to go places suggested by the game itself, where you can repeat with other Confidants later on.
There are books and magazines which have places to hang out as well but do remember that the prizes are only available for the maiden time you visit anywhere.
When it comes to bettering your rank, there should be a persona by your side who has a similar Arcana to their social link. This will give bonus points across the board, with 1 getting 2 and 2 get 3. There is another bonus of presenting women Confidants with different kinds of items that will increase the ranks between you two.
However, the ranks that you will get for the first time will give you no points which means the answers will not matter in the long run. Therefore, make sure you follow the storyline from after that which will be awarding you.
Persona 5 Royal: Who are the Confidants
There is a fixed chart that you will come across when you are interacting with Confidants.
- Name: The titular name of the Confidant
- First Rank: The game-given first ranks of the Confidants
- Available Starting: The initial day from which you can begin linking up socially
