Seth with High Counter

The final rank of the Strength Confidant in Persona 5 is an absolute game-changer. By unlocking the Special Treatment ability, you gain the power to fuse Personas of a higher level than your own. This opens up a whole new level of possibilities, allowing you to up your power and take on even the most challenging late-game battles with confidence.

To reach Rank 10 of the Strength Confidant, you’ll need to impress Caroline and Justine, the wardens of the Velvet Room, with a specific Persona possessing the High Counter ability. In this case, you’ll need a Seth with High Counter.

Before attempting this, make sure you’ve reached at least level 51 by leveling up in Mementos or a Palace. Then, combine the following four Personas to create a Seth:

• Isis
• Thoth
• Anubis
• Horus

Next, you’ll need to obtain the High Counter ability. There are two ways to do this. The first is by completing the request “The Killer Laughs in the Garbage Can” on 10/14, which rewards you with a High Counter Skill Card. Simply use this card on Seth, and you’re good to go. If you no longer have the card, however, you can strengthen Seth with any of the following Personas that possess the High Counter ability. Just remember to save your game beforehand, as the inherited skill is random:

• Hope Diamond
• Hecatoncheires
• Dakini (Lvl. 52)

Once you have your Seth with High Counter, present it to Caroline and Justine to reach Rank 10 of the Strength Confidant and unlock the incredible Special Treatment ability.
