In Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, players face a mandatory ship upgrade costing $10,000 to proceed with the story. This guide details quick methods to acquire the necessary funds.
Chapter 2 introduces the Pirate Coliseum challenge in Madlantis, requiring ship and crew upgrades. Recruiting crew is straightforward, but the Goromaru's $10,000 upgrade presents a hurdle. Three primary money-making avenues exist early in the game: bounty hunting, treasure hunting, and Honolulu jobs.
Treasure hunting, while viable, proves time-consuming and necessitates leaving Honolulu. Therefore, it's less efficient for rapid story progression.
Bounty hunting in Honolulu offers the fastest route to $10,000. Smaller bounties yield around $2,000, while larger ones can reach $16,000. However, higher-value bounties present significant challenges early in the game.
A balanced approach involves targeting lower-difficulty bounties ($2,000-$6,000). Utilize Goro's Sea Dog style for crowd control and switch to Mad Dog for boss fights.
Bounties are easily identified on the Honolulu map by red handcuff icons. Selecting a bounty reveals its difficulty, reward, and details.
Completing bounties grants thousands of dollars, quickly accumulating the required $10,000. While combat-intensive, this method ensures swift story progression.
This strategy allows for rapid Goromaru upgrades and seamless continuation of the main storyline.
