Welcome to NGB and our Persona 3 Reload Star Social Link guide. Here we’ll cover how to start the Star Social Link along with what you’ll need to do to increase its rank and the correct answers to the questions asked by Mamoru Hayase. When you reach Rank 10, you’ll gain the ability to fuse the Persona, Helel. You’ll also receive a Car Key which will give you the perks of a Rank 10 Star Social Link in New Game Plus.

In order to start the Star Social Link, you’ll need to join the track club and progress through the game until you reach the track meet in August. During the event, you’ll meet Mamoru Hayase who will be impressed with your performance and want to meet up later. Continue on with the story until 8/7 then travel to Iwatodai Strip Mall to find him. You’ll need to be Rank 4 in Courage to speak with him and start the Star Social Link.

In order to rank up the Star Social Link, you’ll need to spend time with Mamoru Hayase at Iwatodai Strip Mall after school/during the day on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Make sure to bring a Star Persona along to gain additional affinity with him to rank up faster.
