Finish the Tutorial
Once you start the game, the first thing you should focus on is completing the tutorial. Take your time to learn all of the mechanics and controls the game has to offer.
We also recommend taking the time to read the Tutorials in the menu so you can gain a deeper understanding of more complicated mechanics and obtain free Meta Jewels as well.
Complete Main and Side Missions
Main and Side missions are the main for way obtaining Wonder EXP. Check your quest list regularly by clicking on the Quest Tracker on the upper right of the screen screen to see all possible active quests you can take. Completing side missions not only gives EXP, but can also unlock additional City Activities and available Synergy candidates.

Explore the Metaverse
As you progress further, you will eventually unlock the Metaverse which contains content such as Enemy Palaces which are a big part of the Main Story, the Realm of Repression that rewards you with various materials, and Mementos a dungeon-like location you can explore for treasure and EXP.
Collect Tickets in Mementos to and level up your Ticket Machine to get material and EXP rewards, and make sure to open treasure chests, search objects, and destroy trophies so you can completely obtain all the materials the palace has to offer.
Use Multiple Spins When Material Farming
A quick way to get huge amounts of EXP for a short amount of time is utilizing the multiple Spins when material farming from the Realm of Repression.
One battle can be multiplied to a maximum of five, saving you time from repeating the same fight over and over again while providing you with as many materials and EXP of as many battles as your spins.

Once you progress enough with your Main missions, you will be able to join in-game events that provide various rewards such as Meta Jewels, cosmetics, characters and weapons.
Complete Daily Tasks (Dailies)
Once you've unlocked most of the content after the tutorial, it's best to know the dailies you should complete to help you with progression. Completing them will only take around 5-20 minutes depending on how far you want to go.
The game has a good amount of freebies that you can pick up at the start of the day that can provide you with free materials or currency to exchange for Meta Jewels and Materials. So make sure to check the Shop and the Thieves Den for these things.

The Thieves Den has two things that provide Passives for the player. First, is the Den Rating which has Qevel Enhanced Effects. This levels up equal to your units Ratings, so the better your units are the higher your Den level is. Second is Layout Effects, which has passives based on the decoration in your Den.
Both of these provide passive effects in battle like increased accuracy, speed, damage, etc.

Reroll for the Best Characters
Rerolling is possible to do in P5X, so consider doing this if you have the patience and time to get the Best Characters. Getting the best characters at the start will help you progress smoothly in the story and other challenge contents in the game!

Do note that these contents require you to spend Stamina, which is your daily energy source that restores over time.

Combat and Exploration Tips

Check and Exploit Weaknesses
Combat revolves around using elemental weaknesses to knock down enemies and perform 1 Mores and All-Out Attacks. 1 Mores allow you to perform a bonus attack after knocking down an enemy, while All-Out Attacks are party-wide special attacks that can only be executed once all enemies are knocked down.
Click Enemy Icon to Check Strengths and Weaknesses
During a battle, you can click on the icons of both your teammates and enemies to view their strengths, weaknesses, and other stat details. Checking the weaknesses of each opponent at the start of the battle will help you determine your overall approach from the outset.
Perform Highlights
Highlights are basically the Ultimate ability of your Personas that can deal various effects once the Highlight Gauge is filled up. Make sure to use this effectively as they have a 4-turn cooldown after using it and cannot deal Critical Hits.
Use the Gun to Down Enemies
The Gun has a chance to knock an enemy down even if it is not weak to the Gun element. This can be used to line up an All-Out Attack when all enemies except one are Downed and you can't hit the remaining enemy's Weakness.
As the Gun has a limited amount of ammo for each character, it's best to save it for when you need to score a Down in a pinch!
Guard to Recover SP
When dealing with long fights, you will eventually run out of SP which is your main resource for performing Persona Skills. Use Guard on your turn to decrease damage taken and recover Down Points and SP.
How to Guard and Increase Defense
Manipulate the Turn Order
Knowing the Turn Order and how to manipulate it will help you breeze through each battle. You can increase the speed of your characters through items and buffs and make them move earlier than the enemies.
You can see the Turn Order through the icons on the upper left side of the screen.
