After recruiting Fuuka you’ll eventually unlock the Theurgy. We’ll go over all the Theurgy abilities and how to unlock them in Persona 3 Reload.
Each party member has a few Theurgy attacks that take a while to prepare, but once they’re ready they can unleash devastating damage or incredible buffs.
How to unlock all Theurgy abilities in Persona 3 Reload
Theurgy abilities will unlock for all current characters by 6/13, allowing them and their Personas to work in tandem to inflict high amounts of damage or aid the party in some way. How you can unlock all Theurgy abilities in Persona 3 Reload is by unlocking Ultimate Personas and progressing through the game.
The main protagonist has his own array of Theurgy abilities, while your other party members will have two. Your party members will unlock a second Theurgy if you’ve unlocked their Ultimate Persona by maxing out their Social Link. Their Theurgy gauges will charge up depending on which character it is, each party member has a different way to increase their Theurgy abilities.
All Theurgy abilities
Protagonist
With a combination of your main protagonist’s Personas, you can unlock seven different Theurgy abilities. There are a variety of dealing heavy amounts of damage to buffing and healing your party. To increase your Theurgy gauge, simply use your various Personas and switch between them often.
| Theurgy | Personas | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Cadenza | Orpheus and Apsaras | Restores 50% HP and increases evasion/accuracy for all allies. |
| Jack Brothers | Jack Frost and Jack-o’-Lantern | Deals medium Almighty damage to all enemies, and a high chance of inflicting Down. |
| King and I | Black Frost and King Frost | Deals heavy Ice damage to all enemies, and a medium chance to inflict Freeze. |
| Best Friends | Decarabia and Forneus | The next physical/magic attack deals more than double the damage for one ally. |
| Scarlet Havoc | Mithras and Siegfried | Deals severe Slash damage to all enemies and ignores resistances. |
| Trickster | Susano-o and Loki | Deals massive Almighty damage to all enemies and has a chance to inflict a status ailment. |
| Armageddon | Helel and Satan | Deals ultimate Almighty damage to all enemies in exchange for your HP and SP reducing to one. |
Yukari
The way you can increase Yukari’s Theurgy gauge is by healing your teammates. Although she can deal great Wind damage, she’s one of the best healers you have. Once you unlock her Ultimate Persona Isis, you get an additional Theurgy.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Cyclone Arrow | Io | Deals severe Wind damage to one enemy and ignores their resistances. |
| Tranquility | Isis | Buffs a party member to ensure that the next magic attack deals more than double the damage. |
Junpei
As Junpei most often deals Physical attacks, he’ll also often land Critical Hits. His Theurgy gauge will rise as he lands crits on enemies. Although it may take more time for Junpei to raise his Theurgy, he has two abilities, the second unlocked from his Ultimate Persona Trismegistus.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Hack n’ Blast | Hermes | Deals severe Slash damage to one enemy and ignores their resistances. |
| Blaze of Life | Trismegistus | Deals massive Fire damage to an enemy and ignores their resistances. This will also fully heal Junpei. |
Akihiko
Akihiko is a great teammate for buffing party members, as well as himself. The best way to charge Akihiko’s Theurgy gauge is to use buffs and support skills on himself. Both of his Theurgy abilities will severely damage foes with Electricity damage, especially with Caesar, his Ultimate Persona.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Lightning Spike | Polydeuces | Deals heavy Electric damage to all enemies and ignores their resistances. |
| Electric Onslaught | Caesar | Deals severe Electric damage to one enemy and ignores their resistances. Also has a high chance of inflicting Shock. |
Mitsuru
Ice damage is Mitsuru’s specialty, but she also has a few debuff skills up her sleeve. You can increase Mitsuru’s Theurgy gauge by inflicting ailments on enemies and debuffing them. While her first Persona deals with Ice damage, Artemisia, her Ultimate Persona, uses Almighty damage.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Blizzard Edge | Penthesilea | Deals severe Ice damage to one enemy and ignores their resistances. |
| Blade of Execution | Artemisia | Deals massive Almighty damage to one enemy while decreasing their stats. |
Fuuka
Fuuka’s Theurgy works a little differently since she’s the navigator and support member who’s always with the main party. Her Theurgy gauge will increase as she analyzes enemies for their strengths and weaknesses. She also has an Ultimate Persona named Juno who’ll give her a new Theurgy.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Oracle | Lucia | Gives a random buff to all party members. |
| Revelation | Juno | Gives a random enhanced effect to all party members. |
Aigis
This powerful android will increase her Theurgy gauge anytime she uses a Physical attack. Since this is Aigis’ bread and butter, you should get to use her two Theurgy abilities often.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Orgia Mode | Palladion | Deals heavy Pierce damage to all enemies and ignores their resistances. She also cannot be controlled for the next few turns. |
| Maximum Firepower | Athena | Deals severe Pierce damage to one enemy and ignores their resistances. |
Koromaru
Koromaru will start to increase his Theurgy gauge much faster when his SP is less than half. Although this dog only has one Persona, he can still unlock two powerful Theugry abilities. One will deal Dark damage, and the other can buff the party.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Hound of Hades | Cerberus | Deals severe Dark damage to one enemy and ignores their resistances. |
| Power Howling | Cerberus | Gives a buff to ensure that the next Physical attack from any party member will deal more than double the damage. |
Ken
Although this kid is still in elementary school, his Persona abilities are strong. Ken’s Theurgy gauge also increases quickly once his SP is below half. Not only do his Theurgy abilities deal Light damage, but his Ultimate Persona Kala-Nemi can revive party members.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Divine Retribution | Nemesis | Deals severe Light damage to one enemy and ignores their resistances. |
| Divine Intervention | Kala-Nemi | Revives all party members while fully healing them. Also, the next attack against any party member is reflected. |
Shinjiro
The last party member’s Theurgy gauge will start to increase faster once his HP is below half. Shinjiro can deal a great amount of Physical damage, but unfortunately, he only has one Persona and Theurgy.
| Theurgy | Persona | Ability |
|---|---|---|
| Bleeding Fury | Castor | Deals severe Strike damage to one enemy and ignores their resistances. |
