(the claws of gix isn't really needed, its just better than waiting for your arbound worker to die.)
once the arcbound is about to die, in response... tap cauldron of souls and give it persist. it dies, opponent loses one life, and voila it comes back with a -1/-1 counter... and a +1/+1 counter... which both POOF! and its now a 0/0 which means that this little persist creature dies again. lather, rinse repeat. :)

Doesn't it forget that it had Persist after it goes to the graveyard and comes back? Otherwise, that's pretty cool.

I still hate the +1/+1 counter removes a -1/-1 counter and vice versa.

You have to give it Persist again after it comes back from the Graveyard.

i don't think you do.  It gains persist until the end of turn right?

If a nontoken creature that gains persist this way is put into a graveyard, that card will be returned to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it. However, because it's a new object with no relation to its previous existence, the returned creature will not have persist.
