Meanwhile, several of the confidants are available as romance options, and while it's possible to get romantically involved with more than one this is not recommended as it will come back to bite you towards the end of the game. We've listed the relevant items, as well as Confidant locations, later in the article. There's also the option to give Confidants a Gift handing over the right things will speed up their Social Link progress, so it's worth handing over something they like. With the exception of Sun and the story progression Confidants, you should make sure you have a Persona of the matching Arcana whenever you speak to them - it's not a requirement, but it does mean there are fewer time-filling meetings between Rank Ups.Įven if you're not particularly interested in making friends it's worth at least getting all your party members to Rank 2 to allow you to use "Baton Pass" during fights.
