Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X)

Schema Guide: Best Skills for Wonder

Add to Watchlist

Persona 5 Phantom X - Schema Guide
This is a guide for increasing Wonder's Schema Skills in Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X). Learn about how to increase your schema skills, and what stat you should focus on here!

Best Skills to Focus On

Level Up Your Basic Stats Early Game

When you first access the Skill Tree, you will have a limited option of what you can select to improve until you reach Level 35. In the beginning, you can go ahead and fill those in; these will be your base stats like ATK, DEF, and HP.

Level Up Your Thief Tactics and Persona Skills

It is also recommended that you focus on your Thief tactics and Persona Skills; these are the 3 Skills at the bottom of the page outside of the connected Skill Tree.

These will improve your Thief Tactics which includes 1 More, highlight, Melee, and Long-Range Attacks, and your Persona Basic and Learned Skills.

Focus on Critical Stats

Once the remaining area of the tree opens at level 35, start planning out your skills wisely since you'll have a limited amount of currency to use. It is highly recommended to focus on stats that improve Criticals, like Crit Rate Up and Crit Damage Up.

This will increase your chances of inflicting more damage by landing more criticals that hit harder.

How to Use the Skill Tree?

Use Schema Points to Level Up
