im not sure if i can phrase this correctly so that you can understand the question. but ive been watching videos on youtube and i was wondering, since there is a limit on time to the end of the game is there ample time during the day to level up? i mean during p3 i could level but the fatigue system hinderd how much i leveld each day and how far i got up the tower (i know thefatigue system is gone in p4) so im just wondering if i can level as much as id like in one day without worrying about the day going into the next day.
thanks sorry if its confusing.

also watching videos it *looked* like thier weapons change, do they?

I'd assume that, like the full and new moon days in P3, there will be certain days when you can stay in TV land for as long as you like in P4.

True, but now the real problem is your SP. You run out of SP, you're screwed. So try to keep a decent amount of SP when exploring dungeons.

So far I have read the game is decent you wont have problems unless you make them.
on the other hand what -naotome- posted is news to me. so I really cant elaborate on this sorry.

Yeah SP apparently doesn't restore when you go back to the start point?! Something along those lines.

Yeah same. I guess SP restoring items are in order now. And lots of them.

^Don't you have to pay somebody to restore your SP in the dungeons if you dont have SP restoring items?

I guess they increased the difficulty. This causes the player to think of how to use their SP more efficiently.

Yes. There's a fox spirit or something that you can pay to heal you.

- there is no fatigue system, so you can stay in the "studio" (you'll see what i mean when you play the game) for as long as you want

- most of the SP-restore items can only be found in treasure chests. there are some that you can buy from a vending machine, but they cannot be used in combat.

- kitsune (a fox that guards a shrine) can heal your SP - when the commu link (s-link in English, i think) is at rank 1, it takes 60 yen to heal ONE SP. with every rank-up, the rate goes down by 5 yen. so if you max this s-link, it's 10 yen per SP. however, he has mood swings and that will affect the cost also - good mood (up to 15% discount), neutral, and angry (up to 30%? extra). supposedly at rank 5, the money you make per battle is just enough to cover the SP used for that battle. at rank 10 (with new-game+ - money carried over from my last play-through), i can finish any dungeon in one go.

- there is an item you can use to exit the dungeon immediately - the next time you go back to the dungeon, you can choose to start from the highest floor you reached last time. however, if you enter another dungeon, then the current one is reset and you have to start over.

- you can also teleport back (without using an item) to the exit only at the highest floor (boss floor) of each dungeon

it takes 60 yen to heal ONE SP

By ONE SP, you don't mean 1 SP do you? In that case, it is quite expensive then. Or do you mean a party member's full SP? However, that would be very cheap.

I'm pretty sure he means 1 SP. Meaning it will be an expensive endeavour.

i read in a FAQ that its about 18,000 yen for a complete heal but i think thats only if ur missing about most of ur SP.
