Persona 5 Royal Confidant Guide


Back to Home Page

Note: I have not included the Fool, Magician, Strength, Moon, Sun, and Judgement dialogue here because they are either entirely story progression or the choices in conversation do not affect the progression of the confidant. The Strength confidant is dependent on the fusion of personas (included on a separate page), Moon confidant is dependent on the completion of Mementos requests, and the Sun confidant is only available on certain days, and will always rank up on those days (included in the calendar (ETERNAL LINK)). Sun confidant must be completed by November 13th. The other three are story based.
Additonally, I have decided not to include Rank 10 events, as they result in an automatic rank up, regardless of options picked.
