Can you return to Cathedral?

[MasterKroket]

So i just finished the Cathedral first main dungeon but now it seems i DO NOT get the key i expected to get the chest and for the locked the room you couldnt enter.

Seems they were secrets instead like a crawling space i never managed to find...

Can you go back?
Is it worth it (spend a day) to go back? I suppose probably not. Item you can get sounds nice but not gamebreaking not to have it.
I dont feel like redoing the boss fight on hard. I got it 3rd try first try i tried to win really after establishing what i should be using there. One case of bad RNG though and i would die so i dont want to redo it just to get this one item really...

In Persona you often went back on a seperate day later to fight a new mini boss but i suppose its not like that in this game?

it seems the cathedral collapsed lol i figured i could get the items later oh well.

you do get to go back later, there's some more to explore there later. and if it is the locked gate i think you're talking about it at the beginning of the dungeon, you can only open that from an area you can only explore later on

Well if i get to go back to the entire dungeon anyhow its fine and i can get it later i suppose. I didnt mean the two locked rooms in the catacombs at the start.

There was some room with black mist that is locked like midway through as well.

Yeah the door with the black mist is a boss fight. When you get to Martira (next town you visit after Gran Trad) clear the quest from the wanted posters there, it's the imps Den or something, after y you deliver that, two new quests regarding the mausoleum will unlock back at Grand Trad, one of them involves that door.

You actually can't return to the Cathedral, only the Catacombs. It's also not worth going back a save to open the locked door with smoke, the treasure chest, and the locked door by the giant statue.
What you would have found in the smoke room is: A fight with several zombies that rewards you with the key to the locked treasure chest
What you would have found in the treasure chest is: A key that moves the giant golden statue and allows you to get to the treasure chest you couldn't reach in the statue room
What you would have found in the statue room is: Mage/Cleric armor with 100 defence, Magic +3, and 15% Dark evasion.

It's nice, but equipment from the next dungeon is always going to be stronger than the best stuff you can find in the current dungeon.

exactly that was my thought anyhow. Nice to have but not worth to go back.
