  • Welcome to my Persona 5 Strikers trophy  guide! I will try to map out everything you need to get that platinum trophy, so make sure to check the overview bellow and follow the topics I listed. Of course, do not forget to enjoy the game!

    Step 1 - Play the game on any difficutly, collect (buy) recipes and do all requests

    You need to be careful not to miss any request from your teamates. You can't return to town, so make sure you always do everything you can in each town (recipes, ingredients). The rest is easy, you can play on any difficulty. The grind can be done in the final game dungeon. 

    After you beat the game, make a separate save.

    Steps you should think about while playing the game

    Make sure you perform them regulary as you play, so you don't have to grind later

    Performed an All-Out Attack 150 times.
    Hit the enemy's with its weakness 300 times.
    Defeated 200 enemies with the phantom dash.
    Defeat 10 Treasure demons.
    Fuse all Personas.
    Raise BOND skill to max for all characters.
    Performed 50 ambushes.
    Raise all Master Arts to level 4 (max)
    Collect at least 15 recipes from requests and through towns
    Make sure you complete all requests as you play (some are missable)

    Step 2 - Unlocking and playing the NG+

    To unlock the NG+, after beating the game you will need to finish some additional request and beat the Reaper. Combine this with the grind trophies, all personas and leave only last persona fusion for NG+ (the last one can be fused only there, not before). Defeating the last boss unlocks the opportunity to visit all the dungeons again.

    New Game+ transfers
    Character Levels and Joker’s Persona's, Persona Compendium - All of the personas the player registered and fused in the Velvet Room is transfered
    Sophie’s "true form" persona, Pandora
    Wolf is playable from the start
    Character Equipment - Equipment acquired or purchased from the previous playthrough
    New Items become available in the Sophia’s Shop

    You only need to start the NG+ on Merciless difficulty, not actually beat the game. You can just do that and load the clear save again, and select any difficulty you prefer for your NG+. Anything you maybe missed can be done in NG+.

    STORY
     
    Sophia found strenght of heart.

    Automatic Story-related trophy.

    It’s Showtime!     Activated Showtime.

    You can't really miss this one, and this will be the first trophy you will unlock in the game. Showtimes are activated by pressing circle + triangle buttons.

    Sseker of Power     Used Incense.

    Incense is an Item that you will get from many requests. Simply use one on you or your Personas to unlock this trophy. While playing on NG+ on Mercilles difficulty, you will get many of those as a random item drop after fight.

    Unshakeable Teamwork     Performed an All-Out Attack 150 times.

    When you hit the enemy with its weakness, they go into dizzy state and leaving you an opportunity to hit them with the All-Out Attack. Well, do this 150 times and the trophy is yours.

    Know Your Enemy     Hit the enemy’s weakness 300 times.

    Hitting enemy's weakness only counts once per enemy/group/boss. This means you need to perform 300 weakness attacks on at least 300 enemies, hitting the same one again and again will not count towards this trophy. Have this in mind when you play and aim to do this as you play.

    Phantom Striker     Defeateded 200 enemies with the phantom dash.

    To perform a Phatnom Dash attack, interract with the in-area objects like lamps, skateboards etc. + triangle button. Do this 200 times.

    All That Glitters     Defeated 10 Treasure Demons.

    Treasure demons are those red-jewel-like enemies that appears when you hit them in this form, and you have 30 seconds to defeat them. You will find enough of them during the game, so make sure to kick them asap. To get them to appear you can raise the alarm level when you are inside the cognitive towns, then just go through the dungeon to find one. I did this in the last game dungeon and found them quickly.

    Death Defied     Defeated the Reaper.

    This will take some of your time, and it requires few things to unlock:

    • Finish the main story
    • Defeat all story bosses in a rematch by doing the requests
    • Defeat all sub-bosses you get by doing the requests for those (strong enemies as they state it)
    • Defeat all bosses in the second rematch

    When you did all of that, you will get one final request to beat the Reaper in the Okinawa Jail. You can find him at the end of the Jail. Playing on Easy will be a breeze, but it shouldn't be much of an issue even on higher difficulties.

    Persona 5 Strikers - Requests Guide

    **Beating Reaper and NG+**
    14:36 - Reaper fight (Death Defiled Trophy). He has no weakness, so make sure you are prepared to take him on. This was on Normal difficulty, but you can lower if you have troubles.
    26:11 - Report to Velvel Room to unlock NG+ and Mercilles difficulty

    Mask Connoisseur     Complete the Inmate Registry.

    You need to fill your Persona Compendium will all of the available Personas in the game. Some you will need to defeat first in order to fuse them, one is only for NG+, but overal it shouldn't be a big problem.

    Best Friend  
    GRIND
     
    Maxed out a BOND skill level.

    Getting to max rank (99) will take a lot of time. A lot of things grant you the bond points, such as request, boss fights, and many other activities. To get all the Bond-related trophies you need to max-out all of your BOND skill levels, so you are looking at some 10+ hours of grinding. You can repeat some good requests that grants you high EXP.

    Check under Eternal Bonds trophy for detailed video strategy guide.

    Eternal Bonds  
    GRIND
     
    Maxed out all BOND skill levels.

    Getting to max rank (99) will take a lot of time. A lot of things grant you the bond points, such as request, boss fights, and many other activities. To get all the Bond-related trophies you need to max-out all of your BOND skill levels, so you are looking at some 10+ hours of grinding. You can repeat some good requests that grants you high EXP.

    **Preparation**
    0:01 - Before starting NG+, you can grind Metatron to raise money and persona points invest in your Personas
    0:10 - Keep buying Mara and Delete for 205K Persona Points.
    0:36 - Fuse Alice, raise her to level 90 so she learn Spell Master skill. We will use it to transfer that one to Lucifer
    0:45 - Fuse Cerberus and level him up until you learn Fire Amp with him
    0:52 - Fuse Mara using Cerberus and transfer Fire Amp skill. We will use it to transfer that one to Lucifer
    1:11 - Buy Red Band from Sophia's RV Shop so you can raise your Fire-based spells even further

    **Preparation NG+ on Merciless difficulty**
    1:22 - Fuse Lucifer using Alice, Black Frost, Mara, Metatron and Yoshitsune. Don't forget to transfer Fire Amp and Spell Master skills
    2:01 - Level up Lucifer as much as you can. Use all Incense items to raise Joker and Lucifer's stats

    **Grind method 85k BOND points every 4-5min**
    2:09 - Dire Shadow Snake King farm/grind: Abuse Lucifer's Severe Fire spell. With all above prepared steps you can kill this enemy quite fast. You will be faster with each run. In NG+, you can kill Dire Shadows over and over again, it's best to Return from Jail to replenish HP/SP and do the process again. Bring Ann, Zenkichi and Sophia, they should back you up properly.
    5:20 - Each fight rewards you with 6 random Incense items, use them on Joker/Lucifer to raise stats. Repeating this step gets you to Eternal Bonds Trophy much faster than with Metatron method

    Repeat the last 2 steps over and over again. You will need 2 wins for 1 bond level up to lv.90, then you will every second time need 3. It's still much faster than other methods. Happy grinding!

    Eye for Talent     Spent Persona Points to strenghten a Persona’s stats.

    This one comes a bit later; when you unlock the ability to raise your persona's individual parameter. You can do this in the Velvet Room, and by doing 1 you unlock the trophy.

    Knife in the Dark     Performed 50 ambushes.

    Sneaking behind enemies and pressing the triangle button will trigger an ambush. Simply do this 50 times for the trophy.

    Best of the Best  
    GRIND
     
    Trained all Phantom Thieves to level 70.

    To get your party members to level 70 you will need to grind a bit. You can re-do the strong enemy requests, so this can be your ticket for reaching level 70. Prepare for some grinding.

    **Slower Grind Method - Metatron**
    11:20 - Fuse Alice and preferably give her Maeigaon spell
    11:48 - You can grind Persona points by buying Mara and Deleting it, that will grant you 205K points per harvest. Use those points to invest in your Persona's Magic Power and to raise levels.
    12:14 - Raise Alice to level 90 so she learns the Spell Master skill. That will decrease the SP per spell use.
    12:21 - Make sure to invest in few useful BOND skills while grinding Metatron
    12:43 - Take the request for Matatron and grind while leveling your party. You will reach lv99 fast, and you can use this method to grind BOND to max. Hovewer, check under Eternal Bonds trophy for better method for this in NG+, but you can repeat this one as much as you like.

    What are Friends For?  
    MISSABLE
     
    Cleared all special requests from Phantom Thieves.
