Clearing the Persona 5X Velvet Trials can seem overwhelming, especially the Technician stages, but it’s easier than most players think. With the right setup, smart persona choices, and a focus on All-Out Attacks, even incomplete builds can handle every stage without heavy investment.

Mastering Technician in Persona 5X

Reaching 387 out of 420 stars is already impressive, and the last three Technician stages will push the total to 400 stars. These stages can be cleared with a mix of precise persona setups and effective team composition.

For most players, Riko is the centerpiece here. She performs exceptionally well even without full upgrades:

  • Level: 68

  • Weapon: Level 70

  • Skills: Mostly level 7, one at 9

  • Revelation cards: Not fully maxed

Focus on All-Out Attacks (AOAs) rather than chasing weaknesses every turn. AOAs consistently deal massive damage, making them the most reliable way to clear Technician stages efficiently.

Best Characters for Velvet Trials

Riko remains the MVP, but the right supporting characters make the difference:

  • Cattle — Great for shield breaking when weaknesses aren’t available.

  • Soy — Strong healer and sustain option, especially for longer stages.

  • Loo — Flexible recovery-focused support option.

Bringing at least two characters to target weaknesses is crucial for breaking shields. Combine that with sustain-heavy supports, and Technician becomes far more manageable.

Optimizing Wonder’s Build

Wonder plays a central role in clearing Technician, but the build needs balancing:

  1. Max elemental accuracy for consistent debuff procs.

  2. Boost healing effectiveness to support sustain-heavy teams.

  3. Avoid maxing crit rate and crit damage—not a priority for this role.

Once built properly, Wonder enhances control-based strategies where enemies spend more time locked down and less time attacking.

Key Personas for Control Strategies

Certain personas make clearing Velvet Trials significantly easier:

  • Mothman → Applies Forget (32.6% base chance, +12.5% with Forget Boost). Prevents enemies from using skills, giving you breathing room.

  • Alice (unverified persona but commonly used) → Provides high elemental accuracy and works well in Dizzy or Forget setups for status control.

  • Nocturnal Flash (move name) → AoE Dizzy skill with a 16.3% base proc rate, boosted further by Dizzy Boost (up to +16.3%). Immobilizes enemies completely.

By combining these debuffs with high elemental accuracy, players can force enemies into long periods of inaction, making AOAs far easier to set up.
