After finished Yorknew city arc, there's a question has risen in my head: Does the Phantom Troupe (especially Chrollo) not use the full potential of Pakunoda Nen for handling all risks?

I don't know if I have any detail wrong or there was a plot hole in this arc. Beside of that, Yorknew was a great arc, I really love the mind game in its later part, there is just some confusion as mentioned.

the phantom troupe is extremely rocky. As a whole and especially some individual members more so then others. My take on it was that they truly never even the possibility of a risk to them arising. So using her ability for such a trivial "threat" might even have hurt their egos. I think that's what most likely was happening.

Still, pretty silly not utilizing what you have, but hey, that's the M.O. for 90% of all animes. But to me, it makes sense at least a little.

It’s simple. They wouldn’t let her use it. And since they’re all so strong individually, it’s worth the risk

They believed that Hisoka had “the sword of law wrapped around his heart” or whatever the prophesy said, which would mean that if Hisoka revealed information about Kurapika, the sword would pierce his heart and he would die. Now, Hisoka didn’t actually have this in his heart, but the troupe believed it, so if Pakunoda used her ability and got the information from him, they would have risked killing him and maybe even losing the information before she’s able to get everything.
