Persona 3 Reload: Heretic Magus Boss Guide
Persona 3 Reload balances its life-sim and JRPG elements pretty darn well, but getting lax on your training will eventually lead to your demise. Tartarus is not the most interesting of places.

Next, you need Yukari to work on healing duty. Media, Dia, and any form of poison removal will be key. Finally, your MC should have access to a Persona who is not weak to wind and has access to both ice
