Persona 3 Month of May Tips

Get Spirit Drain

Sustains your whole run with an abundance of SP, making it able to spam out elemental weaknesses and all-out attacks. Also, Media can be used repeatedly, giving you leeway to use strong Physical Attacks.
List of All Skills

Finish the Requests Early

It is recommended to finish Elizabeth's requests as early as possible. Along with heling finances, the requests provide you with upgrades to your equipment as well, making the crucial Tartarus run easier.
List of All Elizabeth's Requests

Reach Level 20

Reaching Level 20 lets you unlock more Persona slots, making it more easy and affordable managing your Personas for Social Links. While it is a grind, it comes with the required money and saves you from micro-managing your finances later during May and early June!
How to Level Up Fast

Have a Persona with Kouha

Most Shadows in the Arqa Block have a weakness to Light. Also, the Wealth hand that frequents this area has a weakness to Light.
How to Fuse Archangel

Do Not Open Every Locked Chest

Sometimes, the locked chests give out unnecessary items during the early stages. It is recommended to save before spending your Twilight Fragments for locked chests. Make sure to have 3 Twilight Fragments to get Jozomaru at the 36th Floor in Arqa Block
How to Farm Twilight Fragments and All Locations

Use SP Items on Yukari

Since you have Spirit Drain, you can reserve SP Items for Yukari's magic intensive Persona. This lets you have Wind coverage for the whole Arqa Block, which enemies such as Heat Balance and Soul Dancers are weak to.
