Another Max Social Link Guide (New Game)
By XenoEvil
Another max social link guide? Why this guide over any another other guides that are out there? I made this guide specifically because I wanted a guide that puts more priority on increasing your party members' rank. I personally wanted party members that had their essential skills and perks available as soon as reasonably possible. So this is going to be a guide where party members are going to be one of the first social links that will hit max rank.

Important Information
  • Your protagonist stats may vary from my guide but should be easily fixed by spending a night or two working varies jobs that will increase your stats.

  • Stats are important for advancing certain social links as well as picking the best possible response in an event. So make sure that your stats are not lower than the ones in this guide.

  • Do not worry too much about randomize bonus stat opportunities such as bonus knowledge increases from studying. I generally tried you avoid getting those in this guide so you are more than likely to have higher stats in your game than this guide. This goes for drawing fortunes as well. I will clearly state otherwise if there is a situation that requires such bonuses.

  • Alternatively you may choose maximize your knowledge increase bonus to afford some leeway in the evening to draw a fortune from the shrine instead of studying. This is of course optional since I try to avoid those bonuses in this guide. So most players are more than likely to have that natural leeway even if they are playing the game casually.

  • Make sure to save your game when you are instructed to go to Aiya so that you get the same stat increase that is written in this guide.

  • Make multiple save states.

  • This guide will take into account which ever two sports and cultural clubs you pick. As well as whether you chose to become intimate with your female social links.

  • The music and basketball clubs are the ones I used in this guide. There should technically not be any problems in fully maxing all your social links if you decide to go with the drama and soccer clubs or any other combinations of the two. But understand that there are stat increasing opportunities in the music and soccer club that the drama and basketball club don't have which can contributes to difference in stats between your game and this guide. If you want your stats to more accurately match the ones in the guide, consider going with the music and basketball clubs.

  • If you chose to go with the basketball club, it is important that you follow the progress of the strength social links exactly as written in this guide. If your strength SL is either too low or too high, you will missed out on varies books that may be needed to increase your stats.

  • It is generally a good idea to have a matching persona in the rank up events but it isn't required at every event. I will give you a very clear alert to when a matching persona is needed.

  • If you are in a situation where you find that you won't advance a social link if you chose to spend time with them, just look a different social link that is ready to advance and spend the night either drawing fortune or making boxed lunch for the one that isn't ready to advance.

  • Hierophant, Justice, and Jester social links have a cut off point, so try to follow the guide as best as possible for those three social links. Aeon has a cut off point as well but it is near the end of the game, so don't worry too much about that one.

  • This guide is mainly for social links, so I will only go over specific quests and main story progression steps that are tied specifically to help you advance your social links or stats.

  • It is expected that all dungeons with the exception of the first castle dungeon should be cleared in a single day.

  • A summary will be shown at the end of each month for you to easily compare the progress of this guide and your game. It isn't that important that your social links should match exactly as the ones in this guide but try your best to make sure your stats don't fall under what this guide shows.

  • The Fool, Star, and Judgement social links will advance automatically as you progress through the story. Feel free to ignore those three as it is impossible to miss maxing those three social links if you follow the true ending. So I will generally leave out mentioning those three social links except when those social links rank up.

  • Any difficulty is fine for this guide, but personally I would recommend that EXP should be kept at normal and Money is kept at normal or more.

For the rest of this month up to February 5, you have the opportunity to max out any social links that you need. So what you chose to do in this time is completely up to you. Just make sure to spend time with the investigation team members to evolve their persona. Everyone should be in their unsual spots with the addition of Teddie hanging around at Junes.

То ли я дурак, то ли лыжи не едут, но хоть ты тресни - линк Адачи не перейдет 8/25 с 5 на 6. Требуется дополнительный день для повышения. Хотя может я действительно что-то не так понял?

Thank you for the correction, it has been fixed.

Great guide, on 9/27, for the quest to get the book "Who Am I?" There are four questions. The guide has only three. The answer for the third question is missing. The answer is: 2 pages

Please include the location of the SLs. Thank you!

@XenoEvil great, thanks for the fast response!

Yes, it should be okay if you get the hides the next time you go into a dungeon.
Kyle McGinty 23 Feb @ 3:56pm 
I messed up the quest where you need 5 thick hides to get the hard boots because I'm playing in French and the translation of the items are a bit different... I'm on 07/03 can I get them the next time I do a dungeon and not fall behind?

I've updated that part to remove eating the mushroom. Thank you.
EliApparently 18 Feb @ 3:01pm 
Eating the mushroom on 9/13 causes time to pass, so you can not eat it and read in the same night.

@EliApparently
It should be whenever a date with the Hierophant shows up. So when it is a night for Hierophant 3, it will be Hierophant 2 for you.
