Persona 4 Golden – Fox Hermit Social Links Guide

Fox is Hermit’s social link in Persona 4 Golden. See below for a guide to the quests required to level up this S. Link.

A little spoiler alert!

Fox Social Links Guide

Fox Hermit social links are unique in that they do not rely on dialogue responses. Instead, an ema request is issued and S. Link is leveled accordingly. Receiving an ema request does not advance time, but submitting a completed request (and advancing the S.link itself) does.

This social link will automatically start on May 5th. Maxing out this social link will reward you with a thank you ema from Fox and unlock the Ongyōki fusion.

Fox availability

Foxes are available all days of the week, including rainy days, and can be found at shrines.
