Golden Hands make a return in Persona 3 Reload: Episode Aigis, and operate much like they did in the base game. One beneficial change for players is that Aigis engages with Shadows using her guns, which makes hitting a fast-moving enemy such as a Golden Hand much easier.
While all Golden Hands of the same name have the same affinities in the game, those affinities don't carry over between the base game and Episode Aigis. While Wealth Hands were in the base game, they will now require a new strategy to beat; here's how to take them down and level up fast.
Persona 3 Reload Theurgy Tier List
The Theurgy mechanic greatly improved combat in Persona 3 Reload, but there are some SEES members' Theurgy skills that a far more useful than others.
Wealth Hand Weaknesses In Episode Aigis
- Level - 25
- HP - 450
- Weakness - Pierce
Wealth Hands have a weakness to pierce damage, making them incredibly easy to take down. They don't have any other affinities, so even if you can't hit their weakness, it is safe to use any of your strongest attacks to weaken them. Just like the base game, players will only get two turns for each party member before the Wealth Hand runs away, and they naturally have a high chance of dodging attacks.
Aigis' base attack deals piece damage, meaning you'll always have someone who can knock them down, no matter what your party composition is. Ken and Yukari are also great options thanks to their basic attacks also dealing pierce damage. Since Ken and Yukari are two of the first available party members, it's a good idea to make them accompany Aigis and Metis as your party to make short work of any Wealth Hand you find.
Wealth Hands are rare and are worth using a Theurgy or two to take down should you not have the best party members to hit their weaknesses.
How to Beat Wrathful Book & Shouting Tiaras in Persona 3 Reload: Episode Aigis
The Wrathful Book and Shouting Tiaras are the first boss players will face in Episode Aigis; here's how to beat them.
Rewards For Wealth Hands In Episode Aigis
Defeating a Wealth Hand will give your party a large sum of XP along with a rare item that can be sold for a lot of Yen. Episode Aigis continues to XP modifier rules from the base game, so the exact amount of XP earned by each party member will vary depending on their level compared to the Shadow's, and the number of active party members, though it will always be a useful amount.
The rare item Wealth Hands drops is Worldy Coins, which can be sold for 3,000 Yen a piece. Players won't be able to sell items right at the start of the DLC and will need to progress until they finish the first section of the Abyss Of Time before unlocking the method.
