Before you follow the route
Use the live HUD and the visible result after each step before moving to the next one.
- 01
Confirm the objective and upgrade layer
Do this
The Journal can show a current-run Hand objective and tool upgrades, while Lobby upgrades stay separate; do not treat them as one Player Level, Account Level, or XP bar. Proceed only when the live objective is Upgrade your hand.
You should see
You are in the current run's HAND upgrade screen, not the Lobby or a tool purchase point.
- 02
Buy one visible Hand upgrade
Do this
When the Journal says Upgrade your hand (0/1), open the current run's Journal, choose Upgrades, stay in the HAND column, select a visible Hold, Dexterity, or Grasp option you can afford, press BUY once, then verify a Hand-state, cash, success-message, or objective change.
You should see
At least one visible Hand, cash, success, or objective signal changes.
If it differs
Use the current displayed price; do not assume one option is always best.
