Read the five base stats
Compendium values describe a Persona at its starting level. The values in your save can differ after leveling or other growth.
Scroll horizontally to see all columns.
| Stat | Role |
|---|---|
| Strength | Physical skill damage |
| Magic | Magic damage and healing |
| Endurance | Damage resistance |
| Agility | Accuracy and evasion |
| Luck | Chance-based combat effects |
Choose defenses as well as attacks
Weaknesses expose the protagonist when that Persona is equipped. Resist reduces damage, Null prevents it, Repel returns it and Drain turns it into recovery. Change Personas with the enemy’s next action in mind, rather than looking only at the strongest attack available.
Plan around learned skills
The learnset shows starting skills and the levels at which additional skills appear. Fusion inheritance and Skill Cards provide other ways to develop a Persona. Those additions do not change the base learnset recorded in the compendium.
