Amidst a roster boasting names like Lilim and Jatayu, the Persona named Michael stands out for its simplicity in Persona 3 Reload. Despite its ordinary moniker, Michael holds significant importance as it unlocks access to even more potent Personas later in the game.
However, acquiring this angelic ally requires navigating through a series of challenges—not to mention the Fusion process itself.
How To Obtain Michael in Persona 3 Reload
Before delving into Persona fusion, it’s crucial to maximize the Justice Social Link by completing Linked Episodes, primarily involving spending ample time with Ken Amada. Ken proves to be a valuable party member, making it likely that you’ll naturally develop a close bond with him. You can commence his Link Episodes in September, but remember that like all Social Links, this opportunity is missable. Failure to initiate it will forfeit your chance to obtain Michael for the duration of your Persona 3 Reload journey.
This is because Ken’s Social Link is the sole means to acquire the Silver Key item, essential for unlocking the ability to fuse Michael. Fusing Uriel and Seth with the Silver Key in your possession offers a relatively straightforward path to adding Michael to your roster, as neither Persona demands overly stringent prerequisites. Alternatively, Jatayu and Norn present another viable combination. Given Michael’s Arcana is Judgement, any fusion resulting in a Judgement Persona offers a chance to obtain him.
Once Michael is in your possession, you can proceed to fuse Metatron, and ultimately, Orpheus Telos—the most formidable Persona in the game. Quite an impressive journey for someone with such an unassuming name.
