0=>1* convo “when’s my first job?” gives +3 (with corresponding persona, at least.)
Iwai isn’t available for some reason on Thursday Evening 11/3, won’t even show up grey out on the map or anything (I have him at Rank 5). Is his availability in November different?
I’ve just checked through the November Royal guide for November, apparently he’s available on Tuesdays during that month, though not on the 1st.
“So what’s my first job?” at Rank 1 got me three notes w/Hanged Man Persona stocked.
I got three notes without the persona with that option
Royal: Rank 6 4th Question. Saying ‘Right’ only yields two points even with a Hanged persona.
For Royal, I got +3 after rank 1 for the 3rd option “So what’s my first job” w/ a Hanged Persona.
Same here
