If you are a fan of the Persona series or any of the Persona 5 games, you will likely want to obtain Joker. After all, he is the main character of ATLUS's P5 games and one of the most iconic protagonists in JRPG history. Joker in Persona 5: The Phantom X is one of the 5-star characters who is available for a limited time, and you can obtain him by using Meta Crystals or Platinum Tickets.

As of the release version of P5X, Joker is arguably the best DPS character and one of the strongest Phantom Thieves in the game. Here are a few reasons why Joker is a must-pull in Persona 5: The Phantom X.

Pros for pulling Joker in Persona 5: The Phantom x

• Strong AoE damage dealer.
• Best Curse character in the game. His Eiha spells are currently the strongest in the game when it comes to Curse.
• His damage is not gated behind his 5-star weapon and can easily function efficiently with his 4-star choice.
• His best support can be picked up for free after completing 300 pulls in the Standard Banner.

Cons for pulling Joker in Persona 5: The Phantom x

• Joker is the first character of the game. While he will stay relevant for a while, he will ultimately get replaced by future characters.
• Heavily relies on Rin's ability to debuff enemies. His damage falls off a bit without her.

Overall, Joker is worth picking up from the limited rate-up banner in Persona 5: The Phantom X. He is strong, and although he relies a bit on Rin, you can eventually get her after completing 300 pulls in the Standard Banner. He is a great character and will remain relevant for quite a while.
