Persona 5, persona 5 high limit floor.

Persona 5 high limit floor

Your party will point out the big slot machine in the back, which is the one you want. Take out the two patrolling shadows, then scope out the place for any breakables, as well as the big slot machine itself.

It looks like you can win the 50,000 coins here, but it’s highly likely the machine itself is rigged to make your lose. Head up either set of stairs and climb the wall on the southern side for a chest ( ghillie vest ), then climb the wall on the northern side to find the main control terminal. Slightly north and west from that room with the chest is a door that will bring you to the cheating control room. Attack the guard there to get into a fight with a wandering reviver. This enemy is weak to both bless and wind skills, so it should go down without much trouble at all. After the battle is over, akechi will come up with an idea on how to rig the games in the party’s favor. Exit the backroom area and go to the marked dice room, where you will want to bet on the “11-18” option four times in a row. You should now have around 2500 coins after winning the rigged game. That’s all you can do here, so exit back to the members’ floor lobby for a cutscene, with you getting another 3000 coins.

Persona 5

Pick your team that you’ll bring inside the palace and enter it the same way as before, crawling through the vent after jumping across the top. When you jump down into the area with the elevator, you will need to watch out for some enemies. One will be right by where you drop down and there will be two others on the other side of the room. You will want to enter the door on the other side of the room, opposite of the chest you opened on the previous visit, which will bring you to the backroom area.

Tip: remember to always cover for the elements your current team doesn’t have. For example, if you bring along makoto, ann and yusuke, then you want electric, wind, psy, bless and curse skills on your personas.

Go through the first door and the dead end nearby, as well as the next door you come across, will lead to just breakables. Follow the hallway until you go down some stairs, where you will come to a split. Head east first and you will eventually reach a dead end with a chest, containing a heaven ring . Return to the split and head west now, going south across the machinery and keep going south until you spot two doors. The one slightly off to the west is locked and requires a keycard, while the other one just has a breakable.

Continue north, past the locked door, to spot another door that leads to a treasure chest with some seedy gear in it. Past that are some stairs with a menacingly looking guard at the top, but ignore him for now to find a safe room at the far north. Attempt to go up the stairs and your party will give you an option to either confront the guard head-on, or find another way around. If you use your third eye by the safe room, you should notice that you can climb on top of the machinery, where you’ll find a vent.

Crawl through it to appear in the area behind the door the shadow was guarding. Go through that door to fight that same guard with an ambush initiative, which turns out to be two midnight queens. These are pretty easy enemies, as they don’t have too much health and are weak to wind, so they should go down within two rounds. You will receive a security keycard for winning the fight, which is just what you need to unlock some doors in this palace, including one you passed by earlier. That barred door only has some breakables inside, so you don’t need to go back if you don’t want.

Return to where you fought the midnight queens and continue north, through the next door. In this hallway, the first door you come across will be accessible by the keycard you just got and around the corner is another door that is being guarded by some shadows. Ignore them and head through the locked door to find a vent you can crawl through, leading to the control room. There will be another guard in here, which you have to fight. The auspicious pachyderm is weak to psy, so it should go down within two all-out attacks or so.

Members floor

You receive a members’ card off of the previous fight and thanks to futaba’s skills, you will now be able to use it in the casino to take the elevator you couldn’t before. Ryuji points out another vent you can crawl through, so do that to end up in an adjacent room that has another keycard door. You can explore a bit to the south to find nothing of particular value, as the one room is a surveillance room you can’t enter. So, use the stairs to the east and follow the path until you come to another keycard door that leads you back to the rafters above the main room.

Make your way back to the ground floor and use the members’ card to take the elevator to the members’ area (there is a safe room south from the elevator on the main floor). After some scenes, it looks like you will need to gamble in order to get to the next area, the high limit floor. There is another safe room off to the west, in the middle portion of the map here, if you wish to use it. Approach the desk and talk to the shadow dealer here to not only get 1,000 coins and a map, but also learn about the two playing areas to the left (dice area) and right (slots area) of the counter. Unfortunately, you can’t do anything in the slots area yet, so head to the east to enter the dice area.

Dice game area

The objective to the dice area is to guess whether the dice total will be between 3-10 or 11-18. If you get a triple match on the dice (three 1s, for example), then you get triple the payout and triple 6s will quintuple your bet. However, if you play a few times, you learn that what akechi said earlier rings true, as the games are truly rigged so you can’t win, so you will need to find another way to get the 50,000 coins. North of where you initially entered is a vent you can crawl through to reach the backroom area of the dice area.

This area here can be slightly confusing, but your objective will be to get to the north to some stairs. To the west of where the long hallway is on the eastern side are some machinery you can jump over, so do that and enter the room just north of that for a chest ( black robe ). Now, take the hallway on the western side to the north and climb the stairs you see on your map (be careful of a shadow that might be on the stairs). The room on the way to the stairs leading down just has a few breakables.

The first area back downstairs has two shadows close together, so try and wait until they separate to take them down. For now, go south, west and south again to spot a small room on the map, which happens to be a safe room. The stairs to either side of this area just loop around to the other set of stairs, although there are a few breakables up there. The door to the east of the safe room has a breakable in it, so continue south and you will come to a room that is locked from this side. If you head to the northern side of the room, though, you can find a vent that lets you get inside, where you’ll find a chest that has a parrying dagger .

Slightly north and west from that room with the chest is a door that will bring you to the cheating control room. Attack the guard there to get into a fight with a wandering reviver. This enemy is weak to both bless and wind skills, so it should go down without much trouble at all. After the battle is over, akechi will come up with an idea on how to rig the games in the party’s favor. Exit the backroom area and go to the marked dice room, where you will want to bet on the “11-18” option four times in a row. You should now have around 2500 coins after winning the rigged game. That’s all you can do here, so exit back to the members’ floor lobby for a cutscene, with you getting another 3000 coins.

Slots game area

As soon as you enter the slots game area, a shadow will stop you and force you into a fight. These two life-draining spirits are something you might have seen before, but they are different now. They are weak to nuke skills, so they should go down with relative ease, probably one all-out attack. After finishing the battle, look on the southern wall just before it opens up to spot a red screen. This control panel will be important in a bit, so remember where it is. There will be some waitresses posing as shadows walking up and down the aisles, so watch out for them as you head west.

The one door at the end is blocked by lasers, so you won’t be able to go through there. Go up the stairs nearby and follow this path until it goes back down some other stairs. From here, go north to find the locked door, but you will be able to open it from this side with your keycard. Now, head south and through the door that’s leading east, looking for some boxes you can hop over to your north on the map. There will be two things here in this little hole, a green control terminal (remember this) and a treasure chest ( smokestained armor ). You’re pretty much done here for now, so look at your map to see the door to the far west, which will lead you further into the slots area.

Your party will point out the big slot machine in the back, which is the one you want. Take out the two patrolling shadows, then scope out the place for any breakables, as well as the big slot machine itself. It looks like you can win the 50,000 coins here, but it’s highly likely the machine itself is rigged to make your lose. Head up either set of stairs and climb the wall on the southern side for a chest ( ghillie vest ), then climb the wall on the northern side to find the main control terminal.

Futaba can do her job at disabling the rigging, but not from here, as she mentions she needs access to both the red and green control terminals. One’s by the entrance, while the other is in the passageway and it can be a bit confusing finding them both. However, both have been pointed out in this section of the walkthrough (complete with pictures), so they shouldn’t be too difficult to find. Once you disable both, go and save in the lobby, then return to the big slot machine.

As morgana points out, there is a 20% chance the rig won’t work, which is why you saved. Play the slots and if you happen to lose, reload the save and try again. Once you win, you will have the 50,000 coins to buy the member’s card for the high limit floor. There’s nothing left to do here, so head straight to the lobby when given the option (might be a good idea to save again). Go to the counter and purchase the high limit card, as well as the soma and bead chain, since you should have enough leftover for those (they’re fairly rare and powerful healing items). Upon going back to the elevator, a guard will be there and you’ll have to fight it.

The final measurer is annoying, as it isn’t weak against anything, but it does resist ice/curse and absorbs wind, so don’t use those. You are free to use anything else and if you have access to lucky/miracle punch, then a critical and all-out attack should pretty much almost kill it. You want to quickly kill it, as it has access to garudyne, rakukaja and diarahan, the last of which can heal the mini-boss completely. After the fight is over, use the elevator to go to the high limit floor, where you find out you can’t advance, so it’s back to the palace’s entrance to return to the real world, but there’s something else you can do here.

Fusion frenzy

By now, you should have reached level 51, which means you can fuse the final persona for the strength confidant, seth. It needs to have a high counter on it, which can be done in one of two ways. The easiest way is to fuse seth (advanced fusion that requires four personas) and then use the high counter skill card you received during the last big outing in mementos (it dropped from shadow kiritani, AKA the killer who cleans up trash request).

The other way is actually fusing and using skill inheritance. Seth is an advanced fusion that requires isis, thoth, anubis and horus. Three of the four are from futaba’s palace, so you might have them from there or from inside mementos. The lowest level persona that has high counter is dakini (empress), who learns it at level 52. Scathach + thoth will get you dakini and your current empress confidant should be enough to get the skill (will have to grind otherwise).

From there, fuse dakini with pixie to get anubis, making sure to inherit high counter. The only persona you probably don’t have is horus, which has two fusions you could probably do right now. Either fuse kushinada with hecatoncheires, or go with bugs and anubis (if latter, inherit high counter). Once you have all four, fuse them together to get seth with high counter, which you can show to the twins and max out the strength confidant. Not only do you gain the ability to fuse zaou-gongen, the ultimate persona of the strength arcana, but you can actually fuse persona of a higher level than you. However, you will have to pay some money to do that. You are now done at the palace, so return to the real world, making sure you grab a hanged man persona for tonight.

November 13th (night)

When you get home, get a massage from kawakami, then go and hang out with iwai (don’t forget the hanged man persona).

Confidant: pick “are you sure he’s alive?” for your first answer, then whatever you want for the next four responses, and either “kaoru is really strong-willed” or “he’s a cool kid, huh?” for the last one.

Persona 5: niijima palace - members floor, house of darkness maze, battle arena in the casino palace

How to explore and beat the sixth palace.

In persona 5 niijima's palace is the sixth dungeon, and takes place during the months of october and november.

As before, you'll be taking a few visits to niijima's palace dungeon, with several infiltrations and a run to get the treasure and take on the boss.

If you're after help for other parts of the game, consult our persona 5 guide and walkthrough.

Niijima's palace dungeon

Investigation

On the main floor, head up the stairs to the right and go through the door - you'll recognise this area from the game's opening moments. Make your way across the suspended platforms to the south west corner of the room, try the locked door, then head across to the western edge of the room and crawl through the vent. Drop down to the area below and speak to the palace's owner.

Once they're gone head to the lower area and try the elevator, defeat the shdow that appears, and then return to the real world.

Infiltration

Make your way back to the elevator, use the safe room, and then head through the door in the south west corner.

Follow the corridor around to the west, climb the stairs, go through the door ahead, and climb over the machinery to the south. Keep following the passageway until you find a flight of stairs with a powerful shadow at the top - you will have to fight him eventually, but for now leave him be. Head north to find another safe room, then climb on the machinery on the west of the room to find an air vent.

Crawl through, drop down on the other side, and go through the door to the east - this will allow you to ambush the shadow you skipped earlier and make the fight a little easier. Once defeated he'll drop a keycard, so head back through the door and head to the north. Use the keycard on the locked door ahead, then crawl through the vent into the surveillance room.

Ambush the shadow and grab the membership card, then leave the room via the vent in the north east corner. Exit the room using the keycard then head up the stairs to the east and use the keycard on the next door to return to the main floor and make your way back down to the elevator to ride to the next area.

After another brief meeting with the palace's owner, talk to the cashier, use the safe room, and then head to the west to enter the dice area.

Pick a room at random and try a few games of dice until you realise it's rigged, then crawl through the vent near the northernmost dice room.

Follow the passage around anticlockwise then jump over the machinery ahead. Head west, follow the passage north, then turn right and go up the stairs. Once the corridor heads south turn right at the end, use the safe room, and then head east. Keep following the passage around until you reach the door at the end, then head through to enter the dice control room.

Defeat the shadow in the control room then return to the main gambling area. Futaba will mark a room on your map, so pop in there and play a few more games of dice - this time you can't lose, so keep going until ryuji and another member of your party volunteer to grind for cash, then return to the lobby.

You now have enough cash to play the slots, so make a quick stop in the safe room and then head through the door to the east.

Ignore everything going on in this room for now, and just head for the door in the west.

Examine the giant slot machine, then head up the short flight of steps to your right and climb onto the bank of slot machines at the top. Examine the panel, then climb back down and return to the first slot room.

Turn right and follow the corridor, open the door, and then climb onto the machinery on the left at the end to find the green control panel. Double back and enter the main part of the slot room (heading back to the lobby) and the red panel will be on the wall to your rightjust past the last row of slot machines.

Once both panels are done return to the giant slot machine and give it a whirl, then return to the cashier and collect your high limit card then use the elevator to move to the next floor and speak to the bouncer.

This is as far as you can go in this visit, so return to the real world for now.

High limit lobby, house of darkness maze, and battle arena

Ignore everything for the moment and just head through the door to the south and use the machine next to the scales, then return to the lobby. There are two challenges you need to beat to earn yourself the required sum, and conveniently the entry fee for one of them is exactly the prize you can win for the other, so start by heading to the house of darkness to the west.

Once inside the maze visibility is extremely limited and there's no map, but the maze is reasonably simple to navigate.

Part 1: hug the wall to your left and follow it until you come across a vent, try the nearby door, then crawl through the secret passage.

Part 2: drop down to the floor below, and keep hugging the wall to your left. Skip past the first passage with the blue lights, then take the next one and keep hugging the left wall until you reach a locked door. Nearby you'll be able to see the back of an illuminated letter - climb onto it and head for the top, crawl through the vent, drop down the other side, and keep hugging the wall to the left until you reach another door, go through, and head down stairs and through the door on the west.

House of darkness outer chambers

After a cutscene your path will be blocked, so crawl through the vent on the left hand wall near the playing cards, follow the passage west and round to a flight of stairs, head up, and then climb onto the machinery in the north west corner of the passage above and take the door to the south to emerge past the blockage in the main hallway. Head through the door to the west, fight the shadow for your prize, and then return to the high limit lobby.

Cross the lobby and enter the arena area - you'll face off against three rounds of increasingly tough shadows, and you'll be fighting alone, but as long as you have plenty of healing items or personas with healing skills it shouldn't provide too much of a challenge.

Return to the scales, deposit your winnings, and cross the bridge to the treasure room before returning to the real world.

Confidants, romances, test answers, palaces and more.

Niijima boss fight

The fight itself is straightforward, but is complicated slightly with a gambling mechanic. If you win you'll be granted a buff, have HP or SP restored, or gain some other tactical advantage, but if you lose you'll hand the advantage to your opponent.

For the first few rounds, whatever you pick you will lose so only opt for low stakes bets, but pay attention to where the ball originally lands before being diverted; after a couple of rounds, when futaba asks if you've spotted how the cheat is being done answer with "there's a glass lid", then send one of your squad to deal with it. Once the cheat has been disabled, place high stakes bets on the number the ball originally landed on and you should be in for a relatively easy ride.

The second phase is a tougher fight, but the mechanics remain the same - we'd recommend using a combination of concentrate and fire-based attacks if possible, as while it's not a specific weakness it does seem to do slightly more damage than other attacks. Keep one party member on healing duties, and wear away until the fight is over.

You'll now revisit the opening sequence of the game, but this time it'll make some sort of sense - just do what you did last time around.

Persona 5 royal’s palaces are nearly the same as they were in persona 5. Similarly, our guides for the previous game will also lead you down the right paths to the boss of this dungeon, though there are some minor changes. With the addition of joker’s new grappling hook, some places may require you to use his new tool instead of our directions below. If joker’s hand glows blue, use the grapple as your means forward.

If you’re looking to find persona 5 royal’s new will seeds hidden in this dungeon, use our guide on okumura’s palace will seeds of greed locations to locate them.

Sae’s palace is very straightforward. While the hallways may twist and turn, there is frequently only one path. It is broken up into a couple of different floors that you will progress through.

No matter how you feel about him as a character, goro akechi is an invaluable member of the phantom thieves throughout this dungeon. He is strong, and his persona’s abilities are very helpful. Take him with you.

Member’s card

Return to the main floor safe room. Once you have fast traveled, go up the stairs and onto the balcony that held the chest from earlier. Look for a grey door on the right side of the balcony. It will be covered in posters. Enter through this door and into a small room. Exit this small room through the door across from you.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Head forward along the hall until you reach some stairs. Head down the stairs and follow the right path for a treasure chest.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Return to the stairs and follow the left path instead. Enter the next door that you come across. Once through, follow the path and look left for some machinery to climb over. Do this now.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Follow the path from here and hug the right wall. Go through the second door on your right for a chest.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Walk out of the chest room and go straight to find the staff passageway safe room.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Instead of going up the stairs and fighting the scary shadow head on, climb up the mechanical looking boxes to your right. Once you reach the top of the boxes, you will see a vent opening. Go through it.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Once out of the vent, jump down and take the door on your left. You will now be behind the scary shadow and can ambush it. You can take it down fairly easily with wind spells. Once it falls, you will get a security keycard. This is a vital item.

Return to the previous room and go through the right door. Follow the path until you reach a gated door. Use your new keycard to open it. Once inside, crawl through the vent and emerge in the control room.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Approach the giant shadow and attack it. It will go down quickly if you use psi abilities. He will drop a bunch of member’s cards. Futaba will approach the control panel and register you a new card. She will also procure a map of the floor.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Head through the vent that ryuji finds. You will be in a small room. Use your keycard on the door to the right and return to the long hallway. Turn left up the stairs. Take the door in front of you and go up some more stairs.

Take a right off the stairs and go through the keycard door to your left. From here, return to the elevator that sae went up. Use your keycard on the elevator and ride up to the member’s floor.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

High limit card

Congratulations, you have reached the member’s floor. The first thing you need to do now is approach the counter in front of you. The cashier will explain the coin system and tell you what you need to do next. You need 50,000 coins before you can buy the next floor’s card. He will give you some starting coins and a map.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Dice game

Before going to gamble your new coins away, take the first right from the elevator to find the member’s floor safe room. Now return to the counter and hang a left. Enter into the dice game area. You will be in a large game room. Ignore all of it for now and take a left out of the hall. Approach the vent and crawl through it.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Once you emerge out of the vent, take a right and follow the path. You will find some more climbable machines ahead of you. Climb them.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Once you cross the machine, hang right and enter a small room for a chest.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Take the left path until you reach a door. Enter through the door and head up the stairs to your right. You will now be on the second floor. Follow the second floor path until you reach another staircase. Take this staircase down and follow the path. Take a right and then a left. In front of you will be the entrance to the dice game area safe room.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Hang a right out of the safe room and fallow the right side hall. Once you reach the door, go through it and continue along the path. Ignore the barred door for now and take two right turns. There will be a vent on the back side of the room. Crawl through it for a chest.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Continue along the hall once you leave the chest room. Take the door at the end of the hall and go left to unlock a shortcut. From the door, continue forward and enter the dice game control room. Attack the operator and use bless skills to take him down quickly.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Once he is dead, futaba will rig one of the game rooms. Exit into the game area through the shortcut you recently created. Approach the game room with an exclamation mark over it.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Approach the game master and bet on "between 3-10." do this four times and you will gain some coins. Take your winnings and attempt to leave the dice game area. Akechi will somehow get a bunch of extra coins for your team. Leave the area and walk straight forward into the slots area.

Slots

Walk along the slots and fight the hostess shadows along the way. At the end of the hall, take a left and go up the stairs. Fallow the path until you reach a very fancy room. Walk right and unlock a shortcut for yourself.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Return to the stairwell and take the door in the center of the room. You will now be in the room with the big slots. Approach the gigantic slot machine in the middle of the room and examine it.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

From here, head up the left stairs and observe the middle wall. (you can climb it from the left side.) doing so will net you a chest.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Follow along the back area until you reach the exclamation point. Reach the terminal the same way you reached the chest. Futaba will examine it and tell you that you need to find two new terminals. The instructions she gives you can be a little confusing. Leave this room in search of the red and green terminals.

Head right down the hallway with the pacing enemy. Go through the door and climb to your left to reach some treasure …

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

. And also the green terminal. It is located directly behind the chest.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

The red terminal is also very easy to find. Back track your way to the start of the slot room area, where you first fought the hostess enemies. The red terminal will be on the wall by the entrance door.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Once futaba is done fiddling with both terminals, return to the gigantic machine. Spin the wheel and win the jackpot. Congratulations! Now return to the counter in the member’s area to buy your high limit card.

When you turn around to enter the elevator, a shadow will be waiting for you. Battle it and then head up the elevator. Once you arrive, the casino worker will ask if you have a reservation. Time to exit for now and change sae’s cognition in the real world.

Break point, lowering the barrier

The process of lowering sae’s barrier is a relatively fast one. Sleep after leaving the palace and then attend court the next day. Once sae sees you there, return to her palace.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

100,000 coins

Return to the member’s floor and take the elevator back up to the high limit floor. Once you emerge from the elevator, turn around to find the high limit floor safe room.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Approach the counter of the high limit floor to gain some more coins and a map. The cashier will point you toward the doors above him. Follow his advice and climb the stairs behind the counter. At the top, examine the big doors.

You will now be on a balcony, a massive scale bridge in front of you. Examine the authentication device to the left of the bridge. Turns out you need a lot of coins to make it to sae. Return to the elevator.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

House of darkness

From the elevator, take a right and enter the house of darkness. Once inside, there is the house of darkness safe room to your left. Pay the entrance fee and advance into the house of darkness itself.

When they said this place was dark, they weren’t kidding. It is nearly impossible to see anything normally. In order to see properly, use third eye. While this will not make things terribly bright, it will be much easier to see. Here is a map of the entire house of darkness to help you get through it:

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Follow the twists and turns until you reach a locked door. After you examine it, turn to your left to discover a vent. Crawl through here to progress.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Once out of the vent, jump up the glowing platform and follow the path. Take a left at the fork for a chest. Take the right fork to continue moving forward. Stick to the right side of the wall to stop yourself from getting lost. Climb up the next glowing podium and take the vent out.

From here, take the path forward for a chest and a shortcut back. Take the left door to win the maze. In the victory room, open the chest in the center.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Walk forward from the chest and go through the double doors. The shadow who first let you in here will cheat and block your path. Take the vent to the left.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Once you emerge, take a left to open up a shortcut back. Take a right from the vent and follow the path down. Follow the hall to the end and jump up the boxes to the left. There is a chest to your right and a door to your left. Take the chest first and then exit.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

Use the card to open up the card barrier and then head through the right door. You will finally be at the end. Take a left for the house of darkness goal area safe room. Approach the game master for the house of darkness and battle him. Take your winnings and exit the house of darkness.

Battle arena

This time you want to take a left from the elevator and enter the battle arena. Once you enter the area, hang left for the battle arena safe room. Now approach the counter and speak to the cashier. He will inform you of the cost to play and tell you that only one champion may enter. Now is your time to shine.

Once you are fully prepared. Enter the battle arena.

Image: atlus/sega via polygon

You will have to fight three rounds, all of them fairly easy.

• Round 1: use psi abilities to take both enemies down quickly. Just keep spamming it, as you can’t use hold up on your own.


• Round 2: same basic principle, except this time you want to use bless skills instead of psi. These enemies will go down easily.


• Round 3: you will now go against a big guy. Don’t be intimidated by his size. Just battle him like you would any other enemy. Hit him as much as you can with spells and physical skills. When he charges up/focuses, make sure to use block the next turn. As long as you use your personas/items to stay healthy and guard against his big moves, he should go down without a problem.

Access the bridge

Take your 100,000 coins and return to the bridge balcony. Examine the authentication panel again and get a fun scene with lots of very involved math. Cross the bridge and enter the manager’s area.

Once you discover the treasure’s location, it is time to leave the palace for a while.

Sending the calling card

Meet up with the gang in the hideout. Instead of sending the card immediately, akechi will advise that you wait until the last possible second. Spend your free time however you choose and meet back up on november 18th. Send the calling card out and re-enter the palace for a final time. We all know how this ends right?

Return to the high limit floor and cross the bridge. The treasure will be gone, so go up the stairs and enter the elevator. Time to fight sae.

To start the fight, attack sae with whatever you want. Eventually, she will begin spinning the giant roulette wheel that is the battlefield. While the roulette wheel is spinning, do not attack sae. If you do, she will cause a penalty to fall on you, reducing your health to 1. Instead, use guard to pass your turn.

Make a safe bet and then lose. When morgana asks if you noticed anything, tell him yes and then claim that "there is a glass lid." morgana will agree and allow you to send a party member to snipe the glass. Send off akechi, and keep fighting. This time when roulette time comes, make another bet and watch akechi snipe the glass.

Once you catch sae cheating, she will evolve into a gigantic monster with crazy weapons.

Battle her like normal, using buffs and your party member’s most powerful skills. She will occasionally start the roulette again and allow you to bet. Don’t attack her during this period. If you win the roll (be it health, SP or money), sae will transfer the losses to you.

Once her health reaches a dangerously low level, she will lower her defense and raise her attack. Now is the time to give her your all. Without being too reckless with your own health, throw everything you have at sae. Eventually she will fall. There isn’t much of a secret behind this boss. Just heal and attack.

Escape

The gang will split up now. Cross the ceiling and defeat the enemy, just as you did earlier. However, this time around you will get some additional dialogue from arsene, your very first persona.

Once joker gets caught, go grab some popcorn or something and enjoy the next hour and a half or so of dialogue and cutscenes. It is all very interesting and enlightening with two save sections in the middle, so don’t stress about it too much. Just sit back and relax. Time to learn a thing or two.

So, let's see, what we have: pick your team that you’ll bring inside the palace and enter it the same way as before, crawling through the vent after jumping across the… at persona 5 high limit floor
