So I've been modding persona 5 royal for a good 11 months now. So I was thinking of trying to mod Golden as well, and the first thing I want to try to do is get some custom skills.

If possible, I'd like some teaching/guidance on skill customization/adding new skills. As I've never modded golden, I'm not sure about the file locations, essentials, etc so help would be nice.

i believe it is not dissimilar to p5r.
you want to look inside init_free.bin for SKILL.TBL

Damn yea, that's basically everything.

skill, unit, msg, etc

#

So in terms of names, descriptions, sounds and effects, how does it work?

How do the skills work in terms of changing stuff, putting them on personas, like is it literally like royal?

I am not the best person to ask from here but I believe descriptions are stored in init.bin/init/datMsg.pak

#

either MSG.TBL or SKILL.TBL has the skill names embedded in there, I think you need to hex edit but there might be a better way
