■ Develop your abilities as you go about your day!

 

・ Stats

 

 

To find success in your day-to-day, you will need to maximize your Stats—Academics, Charm, and Courage.

You can improve your Stats by studying or working a job. If your Stats aren’t high enough, you won’t have access to certain places or be able to rank up your Social Links further, so try your best to improve them.

 

・ Dorm Life

 

Improve Your Stats While Enjoying Student Life:

 

 

Hang out with your friends while making the most of everything the dorm has to offer. There are various things you can do, from cooking and studying to reading and watching DVDs, and even gardening on the roof.

You can improve your Stats by spending time with your friends, and they can even acquire Characteristics—passive skills that can help you out in battle. You’ll also get to glimpse another side of your friends!

 

Features That Help in Battle and Exploration:

 

Dorm PC

 

 

The dorm lounge has a computer that can be used for studying or collecting intel. You can use it to raise your Stats or acquire useful skills for battle and exploring.

 

Gaining Characteristics

 

 

Friends who you’ve spent time within the dorms can learn special skills called Characteristics. These can be a ton of help in battle—some can increase critical hit rates or decrease the SP cost of healing skills. Try to make time for your friends!

 

・ Characters You Can Meet at Gekkoukan High

 

As a student of Gekkoukan High and a member of SEES, you can meet a variety of people at school.

The bonds you form with the individuals you cross paths with are called Social Links, and as you raise your Social Link Rank with them, you’ll be able to unlock special events. The students at Gekkoukan High are typically free to socialize after school, and communication with them is tied to strengthening your Persona.

In Persona 3 Reload, the art for Social Link characters has been completely redone and their event scenes are now fully voiced.
