To pace your progress through the game, Tartarus has border floors with impassable closed paths. The first of these border floors you'll come to is 22F, the 22nd floor, and at this point, you\u2019ll get a pop-up explaining how it's impossible to dispel the closed path barrier and that you\u2019ll have to wait for the right time. But this pop-up offers no clue as to when \u201cthe right time\u201d actually is. How to get past floor 22 in Persona 3 Reload The only way to get past 22F and continue your ascent of Tartarus is to wait until the full moon on Saturday 5\/9 (May 9), at which point you'll get a special quest. This quest will make Persona 3 Reload's story take a fairly big leap forward. After all that excitement, the 22F border floor will open up, and you can continue through the next Tartarus block, namely Arqa, the Garden of the Visages. While waiting for the May full moon, you're free to explore the first Tartarus block, Thebel, Garden of the Secular, as much as you like. Otherwise, you can kill time working on your social stats and social links around town. Or you can just speed things up by going to bed early every night, but you\u2019ll be missing chances to buff your character if you do that. When do Tartarus barriers open in Persona 3 Reload? 22F isn\u2019t the only border floor in Tartarus, so get used to waiting to make progress. The closed paths open on the night of the full moon---roughly once per month. You can track the progress of the moon next to the date on the top-right of your HUD, and you\u2019ll always get a visit from the Mysterious Boy a week before the full moon. On top of that, there\u2019ll always be some kind of special quest and major story events on or around the night of each full moon.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Persona_3_border_floor.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1103203"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2198"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1103203"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1103203\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1130857,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1103203\/revisions\/1130857"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1103210"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1103203"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1103203"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1103203"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1103203"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1103203"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1103203"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1103203"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
