The bordering epoch the party enters the thesame dungeon again, the security level will drop by a portion. Mementos does not have a security level, aside from the total area.
After the party successfully makes it to the end of a Palace, they can go incite to the real world and send a calling card to their target. performance suitably takes the entire daytime era away and during that night they cannot go external Cafe Leblanc, although they can yet craft tools if that completion is unlocked. During the next day, they will be automatically thrown into the Palace and cannot get out until the boss at the stop is defeated. pretend as a result will collapse the Palace and encourage the financial credit further.
