Persona 3 Reload: Mastering the Fusion of Cendrillon (Optimal Cendrillon Build)

How to Get Cendrillon in Persona 3 Reload

Cendrillon, Kasumi Yoshizawa's original Persona, is now available as a DLC Persona in Persona 3 Reload. She is a great choice for the protagonist, excelling in Agility and Strength. This makes her a strong physical fighter, especially in the early stages of the game. While she may not be as powerful as some later Personas you unlock, her ability to use Strike and Light Skills can still be valuable when targeting a Shadow's weaknesses.

DLC & Fusion Recipes

If you want to Fuse Cendrillon, you need to buy the Persona 5 Royal Persona Set 1 for $5.99. Alternatively, you can purchase the entire DLC set for $26.99, which includes access to the Phantom Thieves' "second-tier Personas" like Vanadis and Satanael. To get the DLC, simply interact with the closet in the protagonist's dorm room. The first time you summon Cendrillon, there will be no charge.

If you want to make Cendrillon stronger, you can Fuse Personas and transfer their Skills onto her instead of summoning her from the Compendium. This way, you may create a more powerful build for Cendrillon.

General Information About Cendrillon

What Skills Are Best for Cendrillon?

Cendrillon's base level starts at 36. When summoning or Fusing her for the first time from the Compendium, you can get her even if your level is lower than 36. However, for subsequent summons/Fusions, a fee will be required.

Now, let's take a look at the skills she learns and her affinities:

Recommended Skills for Cendrillon

Innate:

• Neuro Slash: Deals medium Slash damage to all foes with a low chance of causing Confuse.
• Makouga: Inflicts medium Light damage to all foes.
• Slash Driver: Boosts the damage of Slash skills by 75%.

Level 37:

• Revolution: Increases critical rate for all allies and enemies.

Level 40:

Level 42:

• Tempest Slash: Delivers heavy Slash damage to a single enemy (x1-3).

Weaknesses and Resistances:

• Weakness: Light
• Resist: Dark

Null Dark is a fantastic Skill Card that removes Cendrillon's vulnerability to Dark Skills. You can acquire Null Dark by obtaining the 11 of Swords Shuffle Time Card in Tartarus.

If you're having trouble obtaining Null Dark, another option is to consider getting Evade Dark. This Skill Card can also be found in Shuffle Time as the 7 of Swords Tarot Card.

Apt Pupil is a great Passive Skill for Cendrillon because she excels in physical abilities. This skill boosts the likelihood of scoring a critical hit. You can often find this Skill Card on the upper levels of Tartarus, showing up in Shuffle Times as the 6 of Swords.

Vidyaraja's Blessing significantly boosts evasion against all physical skills, and the best part is that Cendrillon learns it through leveling up.

Null Dizzy, one of Cendrillon's Skills, protects the protagonist from getting the dizzy ailment. The Sharp Student Skill reduces the chance of taking a critical hit from enemies by half. However, Cendrillon's weakness is the Dark Affinity. It's important to note that Cendrillon is not immune to critical hits, which can Down the protagonist and give the enemy a "1 More" in battle.

Other Skills that work with Cendrillon's build are Auto-Tarukaja or Auto-Rebellion . This will increase Cendrillon's attack and critical rate respectively for the first three turns in-battle.
