Persona 5 Tarot Card Calculator

Persona 5 Royal's tarot card system is a key part of the game's narrative and gameplay. This calculator helps you understand the probabilities and optimize your tarot card pulls to maximize your chances of getting the cards you need.

How to Use This Calculator

Using the calculator is simple. Just enter the number of tarot cards you've already pulled and the total number of tarot cards available in the game. The calculator will show you the probability of pulling a specific card next.

Note: The calculator assumes all tarot cards are equally likely to be pulled, which is true for the base game but may vary in DLC content.

Step-by-Step Guide

Enter the number of tarot cards you've already pulled in the "Cards Pulled" field.
Enter the total number of tarot cards available in the game in the "Total Cards" field.
Click the "Calculate" button to see the probability.
Review the results and adjust your strategy accordingly.

Example Calculation

If you've pulled 10 tarot cards out of 77 available, the calculator will show you the probability of pulling any specific remaining card.

Formula: Probability = (Total Cards - Cards Pulled) / Total Cards

Understanding the Results

The calculator provides two key pieces of information: the probability of pulling a specific card next and the expected number of pulls needed to get a specific card.

Probability Interpretation

A probability of 0.5 means there's a 50% chance of pulling the desired card next. A probability of 0.1 means there's a 10% chance, and so on.

Expected Pulls Calculation

The expected number of pulls needed to get a specific card is calculated using the formula:

Formula: Expected Pulls = 1 / Probability

For example, if the probability is 0.1 (10%), you can expect to need about 10 pulls to get the desired card.

Probability Basics

Understanding probability is key to optimizing your tarot card pulls in Persona 5 Royal. The probability of pulling a specific card next decreases as you pull more cards.

Probability Table

Cards Pulled	Total Cards	Probability	Expected Pulls
0	77	1.00	1.00
10	77	0.87	1.15
20	77	0.73	1.37
30	77	0.61	1.64
40	77	0.48	2.08

As you can see, the probability decreases as you pull more cards, but the expected number of pulls needed to get a specific card increases.

Advanced Strategies

Beyond basic probability, there are advanced strategies you can use to optimize your tarot card pulls.

Using the Calculator for Planning

The calculator can help you plan your tarot card pulls more effectively. For example, if you're trying to get a specific card and the probability is low, you might want to consider saving your pulls for a later time when the probability is higher.

Combining with Other Game Mechanics

In addition to probability, other game mechanics can affect your tarot card pulls. For example, certain social stats and events can increase your chances of getting specific cards.

Tip: Keep track of your tarot card pulls and use the calculator to plan your strategy. The more you understand the probabilities, the better you can optimize your gameplay.
