This last one can be a true lifesaver when fighting overpowered foes. Guard can help you in battle, but if an enemy has increased attack, you will need Dekaja, too.
6Konohana Sakuya
Konohana Sakuya is one of the first healer Persona you’ll come in contact with in-game. However, with it beingYukiko Amagi’s initial Persona, you’ll get acquainted with it quite a bit during your adventures in the TV World.
As you receive Konohana Sakuya early on, you enjoy healing and support Skills like Dia and Me Patra. But in the long run, you unlock all the most important ones, like Salvation, which not only fully restores your party’s HP but also cures all the ailments they suffer from during a battle.
5Hariti
Suppose you are looking for a Persona that excels in support and healing. Then, once you reach level 59, you should get yourself Hariti. With this fantastic healer Persona, you start with Diarahan and Marakukaja.
Marakukaja is one of the most underrated skills in all of Persona. There needs to be more love for this skill that increases your party’s defense for the next three turns. It will be a lifesaver in all your runs, especially in boss battles, so make sure to put Hariti on your team.
4Isis
The final Persona in the Empress Arcana is none other than Isis, the Egyptian Goddess herself. Mythologically Isis rebuilt her husband Osiris to resurrect him, so that’s a good start as a healer.
The first ability Isis brings to your team is Mediarahan. But also Tetrakarn, a skill that reflects a physical attack for one turn. Great for boss battles and strong physical enemies in general. To unlock Isis and add her to your team,you’ll need to reach Margaret’s highest Social Link levelto fuse her.

2Attis
The Hanged Man Arcana ends its list of Personas with Attis, a Phrygian God representative of life, death, and resurrection. Most of the initial skills you unlock with Attis aren’t healing ones, but with Marakukaja and Amrita, you know it’ll be a great asset to your team. Plus, the first skill you unlock is Enduring Soul. This skill revives your character once per battle; the best thing is that it’s passive.
To unlock Attis, you must reach themaximum Social Link with Naoki Konishi. Once that’s done, you can make your way to unlocking this level 82 behemoth.
1Ardha
To conclude our list, we wanted to add Ardha, they might have one healing skill in their set, but the support skills are off the chart with this Persona. Once you unlock the passive Auto-Rakukaja, you’ll be in for a ride. This way, every time you start a battle, your character will have increased defense.
Later on, Ardha also unlocks Mediarahan and Angelic Grace; the first can fully restore your party’s HP, and the second will double your evasion rate when confronted with Light, Dark, and Almighty attacks.
