Persona 6 Wiki: Confidants, Fusion Calculator, Classroom Answers & Endings

Persona 6 Confidant Guide: Who to Prioritize Confidants in Persona 6 are more interconnected than ever. Unlike Persona 5, some Confidants unlock bonus abilities for others—for example, ranking the Hierophant (your homeroom teacher) to rank 3 unlocks a bonus social stat point for every subsequent Temperance hangout. ### The 6 Essential Confidants for the True Ending You don't need to max everyone. But you absolutely must finish these before the December 24 deadline:

**Aeon (Nami Okumura)** – Unlocks the third semester. Start by July. She's available Tuesdays and Saturdays at the Shibuya bookstore. Bring a Sun persona for +3 affinity.

**Judgement (Sae Niijima)** – Rank 5 is mandatory; rank 10 gives you the final key item. She appears only on Sundays after September. Save a Justice persona for her.

**Fool (Ryuji Sakamoto)** – Auto-advances with story, but missing his rank 8 event before October 20 locks you out of a bonus boss fight.

**Magician (Ann Takamaki)** – Her rank 7 ability "Soul Bond" halves SP costs in the final dungeon. Prioritize her after August.

**Empress (Makoto Niijima)** – Rank 9 grants "Analyze" revealing enemy weaknesses without a persona. Critical for the final palace.

**Moon (Yusuke Kitagawa)** – His rank 5 skill "Copy" duplicates any skill card once per week. Abuse this. ### Confidant Rank Requirements Table | Rank | Affinity Points Needed | Bonus Effect | |------|------------------------|--------------| | 1→2 | 25 | Unlocks ability | | 3→4 | 50 | +1 social stat | | 5→6 | 75 | New persona fusion option | | 7→8 | 100 | Party member upgrade | | 9→10 | 150 | Ultimate persona | **Pro tip:** Use a matching Arcana persona (same type as the Confidant) to double affinity gains. Without it, you'll need 2–3 extra hangouts per Confidant.

Persona Fusion Calculator: How to Get Any Persona You Want Persona 6's fusion system works like this: two personas of the same level range combine to produce a new one. The result's Arcana is determined by the average of the two parents' Arcana values (each Arcana has a hidden number 1–22). ### Step-by-Step Fusion Example Say you want **Thanatos** (Death Arcana, level 72). The recipe: 1. Fuse a **Beelzebub** (Fool, level 63) with a **Trumpeter** (Judgement, level 58). 2. The calculator shows: Fool (value 1) + Judgement (value 20) = average 10.5 → rounds to 11 → Death. 3. Level average = (63 + 58) / 2 = 60.5 → Thanatos appears at level 72, slightly above average. If you're off by one Arcana value, you'll get a different persona. Use the in-game calculator (available after July 10) to check. I recommend the third-party web calculator at persona6calculator.net—it updates with community discoveries daily. ### Rare Fusion Recipes

**Izanagi-no-Okami** (starting persona, max level 99): Requires fusing all 22 ultimate personas at the Velvet Room after clearing the final dungeon. Each must be level 90+.

**Alice** (Death, level 80): Fuse two Death personas of level 60+ and 70+ with a Moon persona of level 55+. The Moon one must have the "Mudo Boost" skill inherited.

Classroom Answers: Complete Schedule Classroom questions appear on specific dates. Missing one costs you 3 Knowledge points—enough to delay a Confidant rank-up by a week. Here are the first five:

**April 12**: "What is the capital of the Philippines?" → Manila

**April 19**: "What year was the first PlayStation released in Japan?" → 1994

**May 10**: "What is the atomic number of Carbon?" → 6

**May 17**: "Who directed the film 'Spirited Away'?" → Hayao Miyazaki

**May 24**: "What is the derivative of x²?" → 2x Full list available on the wiki. Pro tip: Save before each class and reload if you answer wrong—there's no penalty except wasted time.

Persona 6 Endings: How to Get Each Persona 6 has three endings. The Bad ending is easy to stumble into if you're careless. ### Bad Ending (Mid-Game Failure) Triggered if you fail to complete the first palace before the June 15 deadline. The protagonist gives up and leaves Tokyo. You get a 2-minute cutscene, then credits. To avoid this, always prioritize palace deadlines over social events. ### Good Ending (Standard) Complete the main story by defeating the final boss on December 24. You'll see credits and a post-credits scene implying the protagonist's return to normal life. Requires no Confidant maxing. ### True Ending (Best) Requirements: 1. Max Aeon Confidant (Nami) to rank 10 by December 23. 2. Max Judgement (Sae) to rank 10 by December 23. 3. On December 24, choose "I won't give up" during the final boss battle. 4. After credits, accept the third semester invitation (appears automatically if both are maxed). In the third semester, you face an optional super-boss (level 85+) and unlock a final cutscene explaining the game's central mystery. This ending also grants a New Game+ bonus: all social stats carry over.

FAQ **Q: Can I max all Confidants in one playthrough?** A: Technically yes, but it's brutal. You need to follow a strict day-by-day guide (available on the wiki). Most players need 1.5 playthroughs. The biggest bottleneck is Knowledge—you need rank 5 by September to unlock the Hermit Confidant. Use the library on rainy days for +3 Knowledge per session. **Q: How does the fusion calculator handle DLC personas?** A: DLC personas (like Orpheus Telos) can't be fused normally. They're received via the in-game mail after purchasing the DLC pack. If you fuse them with other personas, the result is always a random persona of the same level—usually not worth it. **Q: What happens if I miss a classroom answer?** A: You lose the Knowledge stat boost for that day (3 points). It doesn't lock you out of any ending, but it may delay a Confidant by 1–2 weeks. Use a save before class to avoid this. If you miss multiple, consider reloading a previous save or accepting the delay. --- *This wiki page was last updated on November 15, 2024. Community corrections welcome on the talk page.*
