Special fusions are a mechanic in Persona 3 recharge that require more than two people. As you ascend Tartarus, you will unlock key items that will allow you to fuse certain Personas. Dakini (Hermit) is not a Persona that requires Special Fusion, but you will need it if you want to unlock Parvati (Priestess). There are several ways to add Dakini to the compendium in Persona 3 recharge. If you want to use Dakini in battle, you must obtain it through fusion.

Dakini’s best stat is her Strength, so it is recommended that you transfer physical skills (i.e. slash, pierce, or strike) or passive skills that enhance her physical prowess. As such, you may consider merging Yaksini and Oni, who are “physical” Persons.

Dakini Skills and Weaknesses
Dakini’s base level is 38, so if you try to put her through fusions, the protagonist’s level must be 38 or higher. You’ll probably want to have Dakini registered so you can use it for fusions. If you want to have the option to transfer some of her later skills (e.g. high counter), you’ll need to level up.

Dakini’s abilities are all passive and physical to reflect her stats. Herculean Strike is her best physical ability, but you can give her something stronger through Skill Cards or fusion. Two skills you can consider are Attack Boost and Eligible student. Strike Boost, as the name suggests, increases the power of Dakini’s Strike abilities; Apt Pupil doubles your critical hit rate.

Who can fuse with Dakini?
How to create Parvati
If you have Dakini on hand, you can see who she can fuse with by selecting Dyad Fusion in the Velvet Room. Otherwise, you’ll want to save Dakini for Parvati (Priestess)who you can get through Special Fusion. You will need to be level 48 to unlock Parvati’s special fusion. To obtain Parvati, you will need the following Personas:
Ironically, Parvati’s best stat is her magic and her skill set lacks physical abilities. She is best used as a support, which makes her very different from Dakini. As such, you will find yourself transmitting Sati or Sarasvati’s abilities to Parvati instead of Dakini’s.
