3 Weeks Left! What main party will you use?

[KuraiRex]

Which party members are your favorite and which ones will you be using the most?

For me:

Malemc, Koromaru, Ken, and Mitsuru. Thats the team I use to grind a lot in the end stages of the game and love using them.

[Leviathan]

mine's will probably be Akihiko, Yukari and Aigis apart from the protagonist !

[nervendolch]

Probably Protagonist, Mitsuru, Akihiko and Aigis/maybe Korochan or Yukari

[Phat]

I will go full harem team lol 😂😂

[fender178]

I go with my Usual Yukari, Mitsuru, Akihiko, and Aigis on top of the Protag because they were really good in OG/FES version of the game. I might mix in Ken and Koro-chan however I will just get personas with the MC that would have Light and Dark skills.

[pixet]

I will probably do Mitsuru, Akihiko and Aigis, but temp. switch to Koromaru, Ken and Shinji. It depends on how their playstyles were changed though.

[Moon Rabbit]

Not sure but Aigis will be a constant.

[Hanzo]

Are they removing fatigue mechanics? I would probably still going to use everyone to balance everyone levels

[a_bokoblin]

Junpei, Akihiko and Aigis

[slipped]

i might run akihiko, aigis and ken. OR switch them out regularly. i haven’t thought about it too much tho

All good team comps. Honestly, its hard to choice which character to use the most because for me I grew attach to each one of them.

Yes, they apparently took the fatigue mechanic out when exploring the dungeon.

Akihiko seems to be the fan favorite here. XD

I always use the full cast by constantly rotating the roster. Even boy with the spear, who is probably my least favorite character in whole series, will get some time on the frontline.

yeah I usually make sure all of them get some attention and love from me. XD Ken does seem to be the least popular in the group. Hope his new skills will make him better in combat.

My go-to team was MC, Aigis, Mitsuru, and Koromaru. Sometimes I'd switch out someone for Akihiko, though. Shinjiro was a mainstay when he was around, too. I'm hoping that the game will encourage party member switching, though. I hardly ever used Ken, Junpei, or Yukari once I could switch them out for other characters.

[BothDoorsCares]

Everyone, I'd be studying the benefits of using all of them with that.

Seeing the trailers though, I believe Akihiko completely got gutted and Mitsuru rose up from irrelevancy. By a very large margin, actually. She's the better debuff bot now (As she has the most useful one). But there is a chance that Akihiko will still be a better mage as elemental weapons are confirmed by that battle trailer (Pay attention on what Akihiko's gloves's type are in the beginning).

Junpei has always been a solid member but with his Theurgia boost fill condition and phys Theurgia, he's completely buffed overall. Which is interesting, as he has never been nerfed between the versions as far as I recall. Only buffed, Closest is probably in The Answer, where he self nerfs himself by "upgrading" Deathbound to Vorpal Blade.

Ken's extremely odd, as his Theurgia boost fill condition is detrimental if you're playing in a conservative manner. Not to mention how it completely goes against on what you want from your healer. But on the other hand, it might be usable if he retains phys attacks on his kit.

Aigis being the only one with an AoE Theurgia seems to be a quirk that will make her very usable even when she just arrived. Which is good, as she is not that good until she gains her AoE buff spells. I do wonder though if they will make her compete with Junpei in terms of phys damage output. As she has always been quite bad compared to him in this department. Maybe add in phys boost into the mix (Yes, phys types having boosts are confirmed. Same goes for more crit up passives).

Koromaru seems largely the same. There is a chance he loses fire magic or he's a mage that deals both fire and curse. Phys attacks on his kit is a very welcome addition as well. Hopefully his stats are reworked to reflect this.

Same goes for Yukari, she doesn't seem all that different. Except for some new added skills. In fact, it kinda seems like she's following Morgana's skill tree in some respects like Pulinpa as her new ailment skill. If she has Wind Boost and Amp remains to be seen.

Shinjiro is reworked immensely. He's more....uncaring if he dies. That Bloody Charge skill reminds me of Zenkichi's ability in P5S wherein he gets damaged over time in exchange for hitting harder. One other interesting thing though is there is a chance that he lost Regenerate passives due to this. In the butler outfit showcase clip, no Regenerate passive popped out. But on the other hand though, this might also mean that the shift mechanic doesn't allow Regenerate passives to proc in general. However, I am more inclined to assume the former since he has 4 skills when the usual base skills from a P3 party member is 3 skills only.

Using MC, Junpei, Yukari and Akihiko for the entirety of the game.
