How to increase Parameters in Persona 5? (A complete list!)
Last update: 17 May 2017
Most of the extra activities in the game increase the character's additional parameters.
Additional character parameters are incredibly important since they are mandatory if you want to take part in the so-called Cooperation with Confidants. Cooperation is necessary to advance to higher ranks with other characters, and this is why it's important that you constantly develop your character's parameters.
