Masakado is a powerful Persona of the Tower Arcana. Unlike most Personas, you'll need a special Key Item in order to unlock its Fusion. If you've been consistent with the Requests from Elizabeth, then you should have no trouble unlocking Masakado. If you're going for 100% Compendium completion and intend on turning in every Request in Persona 3 Reload, then you'll need to get Masakado during your playthrough.

Persona 3 Reload: How To Get Armageddon

Armageddon is the most powerful attack in Persona 3 Reload, and the Protagonist's ultimate Theurgy ability, here's how to get it.

How to Get Masakados Key Item

Request 87: Fusion Series #9, Loki (Fool)

persona 3 reload masakado key item for fusion

To fuse Masakado, you'll need the Masakados Key Item. You can get this by completing Request #87 Fusion Series #9: Fool, Loki. As part of the Fusion Series request-line, you'll only get Request 87 if you've completed Request #71 Fusion Series #6: Strength, Siegfried and Request #72 Fusion Series #7: Hierophant, Daisoujou. To complete Requests #71 and #72, you'll need to have Siegfried with Endure (71) and Daisoujou with Regenerate 3 (72).

For Request #87, Loki needs to be level 75 or higher. You can potentially Fuse a level 75 Loki if your Social Link with the party (Fool) is at a high Rank. Since the Fool Social Link ranks up as you progress the story, you may want to Fuse Loki towards the end of your playthrough. Otherwise, you'll have to level up Loki the old-fashioned way.

Here are some Fusions you can try to get Loki:

Persona 1

Persona 2

Lilith (Devil)

65

Seth (Moon)

62

Kikuri-Hime (Priestess)

61

Thor (Chariot)

Garuda (Star)

64

Siegfried (Strength)

54

Mother Harlot (Empress)

77

Chernobog (Moon)

56

Pazuzu (Devil)

Loki's base level is 69, meaning the protagonist's level has to be 69 or higher. Many of the Personas used to fuse Loki will be level 61 and higher, so keep this in mind when you go to Fuse him.

Masakado Fusion Recipe (with Charge)

Special Fusion

persona 3 reload masakado fusion

Masakado can't be Fused in regular Fusions, so you'll want to go into the Special Fusion option in the Velvet Room. Masakado's base level is 79, so you'll want to make sure your level matches/is higher. It's also recommended (albeit not necessary) that you complete the Tower Social Link (Mutatsu) beforehand. This will increase the experience that Masakado will gain upon fusion.

Since Masakado is a Special Fusion, you'll need four Personas to create him. Here's what they are, and how to get each one:

Level

How to Get

Zouchouten (Chariot)

16

Shuffle Time

  • Arqa Block (44 - 69)

Jikokuten (Strength)

29

Shuffle Time

  • Yabbashah Block (93 - 118)

Koumokuten (Chariot)

52

Shuffle Time

  • Harabah Block (173 - 198)

Bishamonten (Tower)

60

Shuffle Time

  • Harabah Block (199 - 226)

You'll receive a Request from Elizabeth asking you to Fuse a Masakado with Charge. You can do this by using a Charge Skill Card on Masakado, or you can inherit Charge from one of hte four Personas in the Fusion Recipe.

One way to get Charge is to Fuse Siegfried (has Charge as an innate Skill) and Hecatoncheires into Koumokuten. Then, use this Koumokuten in the Special Fusion to get Masakado, passing on the Charge Skill.

More Information About Masakado

Weaknesses, Stats, and Skills

persona 3 reload masakado persona

Masakado has a high Strength stat, but poor Agility and Luck. This means its turn will likely be last in battle. Despite this, Masakado learns decent Passive Skills that are fitting for a Physical Attacking-Persona, such as Arms Master and Unshaken Will. If you transfer Charge, then this can double the power of its next Physical Skill.
