As of 05/17. hitting rank 5 with Ohya gives you Unprecedented Scoop.
Charm gains seem to be increased drastically in P5R. E.g. I’ve got 3 charm for getting rank 7.
I got rank 9 but there was the phone call from her and it just moves on to the next day. I got rank 9 on 11/14.
This is the Devil Confidant, not Death.
8-2 Third Answer I put: “I’ll go with you.” and got +3. Just thought I’d point out there was a bit there that was missed, since it is not listed here.
You need to pursue the truth will also get a plus 3 if you have a devil persona
Chose ‘That’s not like you’ with devil persona and also got +3 🙂
8-1 “You Seem Tired” got +2 with a devil persona
