The projectile doesn't do much [[damage]], but will cause the opponent to become [[curse]]d, taking damage over time. It can also be used to situationally start combos or escape disadvantageous situations thanks to its favorable launch angle. | ||

It will also explode and leave a "pillar" of energy that maintains the multihit hitbox if it hits the floor, allowing it to be used for area control by the player. This is especially helpful if the opponent is on the ledge, although it is a committal option in this situation. The "pillar" can also block weaker projectiles, giving it some minor defensive utility. | ||

Eiha is a Death element Persona skill first appearing in ''Revelations: Persona''. It reappears as a Curse element skill in ''Persona 5'', while Eigaon makes its debut in the same game. Eiha is the basic form of the attack, while Eigaon is the most powerful single-target form. Notably, Arsène begins with Eiha but cannot normally learn Eigaon; however, Arsène has access to it in the first battle done in the story | Eiha is a Death element Persona skill first appearing in ''Revelations: Persona''. It reappears as a Curse element skill in ''Persona 5'', while Eigaon makes its debut in the same game. Eiha is the basic form of the attack, while Eigaon is the most powerful single-target form. Notably, in ''Persona 5'', Arsène begins with Eiha but cannot normally learn Eigaon; however, Arsène has access to it in the first battle done in the prologue (which takes place in the halfway of the story) and can inherit it from other Personas. Arsène also learns it in the spin-off game ''Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth''. In ''Persona 5 Strikers'', Arsène can also learn Maeigaon, a variation of Eigaon that hits all enemies (or in the case of ''Strikers'', hits a wider area of enemies) upon reaching Level 62. | ||

Joker's finger snap when using this attack harkens back to his animation in ''Persona 5'' when using an item in battle, while his kneeling down when casting Eigaon resembles Arsène's magic attack animation in the same game. | ||
The lingering damage effect is not present in ''Persona 5'', though it may be a reference to Eiha and other Death spells' attributes in ''Revelations: Persona'', where they deal persistent damage to the targeted enemy over the course of several turns. | The lingering damage effect is not present in ''Persona 5'', though it may be a reference to Eiha and other Death spells' attributes in ''Revelations: Persona'', where they deal persistent damage to the targeted enemy over the course of several turns. | ||
