Tips
- Trumpeter is a very good Persona due to having no weaknesses, innate immunities (2 Repels, 1 Null, 1 Absorb), and the Debilitate skill (Tarunda, Rakunda, and Sukunda in one). It is highly recommended.
- The Ultimate Trumpeter is almost complete as seen in the Ultimate Personas section. Since its main selling point, Debilitate, is one level away, you can freely give it Growth 2 or Growth 3.
