Justine and Caroline, the Strength Confidant in Persona 5 Royal
Similar to Persona 4’s Margaret for the Empress Arcana, the Strength Arcana in Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal also requires the Protagonist to perform numerous fusion requests.
Fusion requests can be fulfilled at any point in the game’s story but cannot be fully completed before reaching Niijima Palace. It is advised to finish up all the requests before entering the lowest path of Mementos or before facing the Depths of Mementos boss.
Any persona that you encounter in cognitive palaces can later be found in Mementos. You can either negotiate or fuse other personas in order to acquire them and add them to your Persona Compendium.

Rank 8: accidentally fused Hecatoncheires with Masukunda, using (Sun) Yurlungur (level 45?) and (Justice) Principality.??
Rank 8: accidentally fused Hecatoncheires from (Sun) Yurlungur level 45? with Masukunda, and something else.
Ariadne and Regent make Atropos for me 🙁
Clotho (Fortune) and Stone of Scone (Fortue) does not make Lachesis. It’s Clotho (Fortune) and Regent (Emperor). You should change that.
You can actually take the twins to Leblanc on 12/22, i dunno if you can do it any later
For lvl 10 seth-high counter
If you have the DLC personas you can fuse together
DLC Kaguya Picaro(25) with high counter &
Asterus Picaror (62)
If you dont mind fusing the high lvl persona its atleast free and easy if you haven’t used them yet
I yust spend 600k on that bruh xD
Spedcial Treatment happens at confidant level 5 in PR5R
To get a Seth with High Counter you can also itemize an Orlov treasure demon during a Velvet Room alarm to get a High Counter skill card.
level 8 is Anzu and Lilim for P5R
I spent nearly 6 hours trying to figure this out. Your wisdom is a godsend, thank you kind stranger.
Principality (Justice) and Yaksini (Empress) do *NOT* Ame no Uzume. They make Kushinada-Hime (42 / Lovers). Kushinada-Hime is needed for Lachesis. You might want to fix that.
Itemizing Ose during Fusion Alert is easy High Counter card.
For the P5R Twin Wardens Fusion request, Level 10 Seth with High Counter. In Option #2, Just fuse Cerberus with High Counter with Decarabia to get a Horus with High Counter. Then, combine with the others to get the Seth with High Counter.
Am I locked out if I didn’t max this confidant before God of Control arc?
I am having a real hard time trying to fuse Horus. Apparently, the fusion calculators for Horus is completely different for the Royal version. You should update this guide to reflect the changes.
By the way, does anyone know how to get a Horus in the Royal version without me chasing down a treasure demon? Again, all of the fusion calculators available seem to assume the fusions are the same P5R. They are not, at least for Horus.
What the hell does VIP treatment do exactly?…
Yaksini and principality make kushinada for me. Is this because they’re higher level then normal?
For Seth with High Counter, you can also itemize Ose during an alarm fusion session. It normally gives you counter but alarm upgrades it to high counter so you don’t have to go through so many steps
What happens if you miss an outing event? Like if you miss the one where you go to the museum can you not go to leblanc later?
you can access any event (though they are ordered) at any time with the exception of the specific timed ones (beach, museum, and underground mall)
Do you get any Confidant Stat Boost during these Special Prison event? I mean does answering Caroline & Justice’s question really matter or not? I’m curious to know if you get points from escorting them outside the Velvet Room.
No dialogue choices needed for Special Prison events
For the Strength confidant in P5R, Group Guillotine is at Level 1, Lockdown is at Level 3 and Special Treatment is at Level 5. Guillotine Booster is at Level 8 now.
Have Special Treatment at Level 5 basically breaks the game, so you might want to refrain from abusing this ability to make the game fair
I’m confused about the special prison events. Are we not allowed to do Miura Beach, Museum, and Shibuya Station Underground Mall at all? Does doing one lock out Lavenza’s event? Or are those three optional?
Yes, we skipped those three in order to unlock Lavenza’s special prison event on January
The fusion for the level 5 Setanta is not working .. Beceause Phoenix is not in the game
You can try
Silky and Lamia to get Setanta
Yes, Phoenix is in the game…it’s base level 22 in the “faith” arcana.
Phoenix is in the game…base level 22 for the faith arcana…
I tried fusing Hecatoncheires with Kushinada but I get a different result instead
You can fuse Hecatoncheires with Clotho to get Thoth with High Counter
Rank 4 in Royal is wrong. I tried it.
What do you mean by houhou
For Rank 6 you need NekoShogun with Dekaja
For the Persona 5 Royal guide it is not suzaku for rank 4, it is houou
Yeah if you’re still confused he means Phoenix
What do you mean by houhou
For rank 7, if I combine Clotho with Stone of Scone I’ll get Atropos and not Lachesis. I wonder why…
Use regeant instead of stone of scone
Another alternative for Rank 7, you can also use Ariadne with Atropos to make Lachesis.
I tried to fuse Isis with ame no uzume and the result kept saying I would get Ariadne
Probably because you have the DLC or it’s a bug.
Impossible! It was doing the same to me, too!
If you have Ariadne, fuse her with Regent to get Lachesis. You can also use Clotho and Stone of Scone. However, this may get a bit grindy unless you have the Fortune Arcana unlocked. Clotho learns Tetraja at level 27 which can be passed to Lachesis when fusing her with Stone of Scone.
Oh….. Right. Sorry,I was confused.
Been trying to fuse ame no uzume in royal but every option listed in the calculator only lets me fuse into some other persona
https://chinhodado.github.io/persona5_calculator/index.html#/list
this help too
For the rank 10 request, you can fuse Cerberus, which learns High Counter at lvl 57, with Horus to get a Skadi with High Counter. Then, fuse the Skadi with a Silky to get an Isis with High Counter.
Rank 5
Requirement: Produce an Ame-no-Uzume with the Dodge Psy ability.
Not the Null Telekinesis listed here
