The beloved Phantom Thieves are back in Persona 5 Strikers to right the wrongs of the selfish and cruel. The arsenal of Personas in Joker’s wheelhouse are powerful on their own, but sometimes they just don’t have the specific skill you need to beat your opponent. Lucky for you though, Strikers has your back with Skill Cards.
Skill Cards are items that can be achieved through four methods: respawning chests, enemy drops, treasure demons, and optional requests. Each Jail has a pool of potential cards that can be drawn from the chests and enemy drops, with a more refined pool coming from the treasure demons. The only way to know exactly what card you’ll get is from the requests.
