Arahabaki is a useful Persona to have in the latter half of your Persona 3 Reload campaign. He's the ultimate form of the Hermit Arcana, which means you'll need the key item from the Hermit Social Link to unlock his fusion. Even if you have stronger Personas on hand or in the compendium, Arahabaki is used in several Fusion Recipes that you can use to create stronger Personas, such as Abaddon.

How to Unlock Arahabaki
Where to Find Screenshot Data Key Item
Social Links are a huge part of Persona 3 Reload's gameplay just as they are in every other Persona game. Unlike Persona 5, ranking up Social Links won't unlock Skills. On 4/29, you'll have the chance to start/unlock Maya's Social Link. Maya's availability time is only on Sundays (Afternoon) and during the holidays. It's recommended that you have a Persona of the matching Arcana (Hermit) when you spend time with Maya. This will give you an extra point when choosing the best responses during each Rank.
After maxing out the Social Link, you'll receive the Screenshot Data key item. With this, you'll be able to fuse Arahabaki in the Velvet Room via Dyad Fusions. When you're starting a new playthrough (NG+, too), you can have Maya's Social Link maxed before you reach the midway point of the game if you're spending time with her whenever she's available. So, if you want Arahabaki immediately, you'll want to prioritize the Hermit Social Link.

How to Get Arahabaki
As mentioned, Arahabaki can be created via Dyad Fusions; you'll need two Personas. The downside to Arahabaki is that he's level 68, meaning the protagonist's level needs to be level 68 or higher. If you've unlocked the Sun Tarot Card, you can potentially fuse Arahabaki if you're a level or two lower, but this can't be unlocked until the late-game.
Here are a few Fusion Recipes to create Arahabaki:
The following Fusion Recipes factor in the Persona 3 Reload DLCs for Persona 5. If you don't have P5 Personas (ex: Captain Kidd), then you may get a different result.

More Information About Arahabaki
Arahabaki Skills, Stats, and Heart Items
Arahabaki has solid Endurance and Magic. Unfortunately, he doesn't have access to powerful Magic Skills. If you want to create a solid build for Arahabaki, you're going to have to use Fusion Cards. Despite this, Arahabaki is a good late-game Persona thanks to his Passive Skills. He learns Repel Dark and Repel Strike, which automatically covers 2/3 of his Affinity Weaknesses. You can teach him Resist Ice via Skill Card, or you can transfer an Ice-nulling Passive Skill when fusing.
When Arahabaki reaches a high enough level (ie: after he learns all Skills in his learnset), you'll unlock the Clay God Fragment (Heart Item). You can bring this to Mayoido Antiques and combine it with the following items:
- Nihil Black Model
- x5 Diamond
- x2 Ruby
Together, these will create the Impenetrable Doll accessory. As its name implies, equipping this will grant its user the Null Pierce Passive Skill. You can have anyone in your party wear it.
