How to Farm Golden Hands in Persona 4 Golden

As you’re making your way through the dungeons of Persona 4 Golden, you’ll be fighting tons of regular shadows, but every now and then, you might encounter a Golden Hand as well. These rare enemies will run from you once they spot you, but you should definitely make a point to hunt them down as they can reward you with tons of experience and money if you beat them.

Just hit them with your weapon like any other shadow, and you’ll start a combat encounter with them.

Unlike most other enemies, these Golden Hands have no weaknesses. They’re immune to instant kill attacks, so your best bet is to increase your critical rate at the start of battle and hit them with physical attacks. If you get a lucky crit, you gain an extra turn to deal damage.

If you manage to land criticals on all the enemies, you can use an all-out attack to finish all of them pretty quickly. However, it’s usually better to focus your efforts on one at a time if you’re a little under-leveled as killing one will at least reward you with a decent amount of experience and money as well.

In addition to that, there’s a pretty reliable way of getting Golden Hands to spawn as well. If you spot a Golden Hand on one floor of a dungeon, you can take the stairs to the next floor, then head back down again to try to force the enemy to spawn again. It’s not a guaranteed spawn, but chances are pretty high that you’ll find it again.

That’s all you need to know about how to farm Golden Hands in Persona 4 Golden. Be sure to search for Twinfinite for more tips and information on the game.
