Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance - All Talisman Locations

In Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance (and the original SMT 5), Talismans teach powerful Magatsuhi Skills to specific races of demon. These shouldn't be confused with Periapts, which teach Magatsuhi Skills that require specific party combinations.

Should you pick SMTV's Canon of Creation, or Canon of Vengeance?
Posts 1Regardless, Talismans are still seriously useful. You'll really open up your options whenever that Magatsuhi Gauge is amped to the max with these things, so we've made a guide on where exactly you can find them. Bear in mind, a few select Talismans are route-exclusive; you can't get them all in one playthrough. You can, however, get most of them - so don't feel disheartened!
Every Talisman Location In Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance
Generally speaking, Talismans can be obtained as rewards for side quests or through milestones in Miman collecting.
A handful of exceptions exist, but so long as you're keeping up with both of these categories, you'll be on track to catch 'em all.
This guide's a work in progress. We promise we'll have the full scoop on the few missing talismans shortly. In the meantime, we've listed them all, including those we've not yet independently verified.
