How to Beat Worm (Banner Pass)

Boss Strategy



Heal Everyone with Great Blessing

Suikoden 2 - Worm Great Blessing

The Worm can attack vertically, which can hit everyone in your party. Use the Hero's Great Blessing to heal everyone. It is recommended that you heal every few turns.

Use Magic Attacks

Suikoden 2 - Worm Lightning Rune

The Worm is a pretty easy opponent to beat. A single Thor Shot from Flik or whoever you have that has a Lightning Rune should deal a lot of damage to it already.

Best Runes

Put Up Defenses with Protection Mist

Suikoden 2 - Worm Protection Mist

Use the Protection Mist Scroll to put up a defense. This scroll provides a 20% chance to repel the Worm’s magic attacks for three turns, offering critical protection during the battle.

Have a Party With Unite Attacks

To make the fight even easier, make sure to have members in your party capable of doing Unite Attacks. Flik and Viktor already have the Cross Attack and the Hero and Nanami have the Family Attack.

• Have her act as the healer of the party, though you will probably not need it against the Worm.

Have Freed Y, Viktor, Rina, and Flik be your main damage dealers, while the Hero does unite attacks with Nanami when it becomes available. With enough attacks, the Worm should go down easily enough.

Equip Nanami with Balance Rune

To counter the Harpy's Unbalance effect, equip Nanami with a Balance Rune. This will prevent her from being vulnerable after getting attacked and also remove the drawbacks of using Unite Attacks.
