How to Beat Golden Wolf (Muse City)

Boss Strategy


The Boss Has Low HP

The Golden Wolf, despite its status as a boss, has a low HP at 3,500. That means a sufficiently strong party can take it down rather easily, though it's resistant to all forms of magic.

Use Powerful Physical Attacks to Take It Down

Suikoden 2 - Golden Wolf Unite Attack

So, focus on using strong physical attacks with your characters. Unite attacks like the Hero and Nanami's Family Attack and Flik and Viktor's Cross Attack are two good examples already.

The rest of your party members can either do normal attacks or cast spells (the Gold Wolf may be resistant to all magic, but not invulnerable to all magic).

You Can Encounter More Golden Wolves

Suikoden 2 - More Golden Wolves

After the first encounter with the Golden Wolf, you can encounter more Golden Wolves in Muse City. But if you don't want to fight them, you can run past them instead, though you will leave your soldiers to fend for themselves.

Nanami IconNanami
Back Row
50 - 55 Best Runes: Water Rune

• Otherwise, she should act as a healer.
Rina IconRina
Back Row
50 - 55 Best Runes: Water Rune, Fire Rune

Luc IconLuc
Back Row
50 - 55 Best Runes: Cyclone Rune, Mother Earth Rune
• He can use the Cyclone Rune (spells like The Shredding) to deal damage.
• have him use the Canopy Defense spell to repel any magic attacks from the wolf.

Use Canopy Defense to repel the Golden Wolf's attacks and use unite attacks as soon as possible. Your healers can cast offensive spells to attack, but prioritize healing all of your allies first with spells like Rain of Kindness because the Golden Wolf favors using AoE attacks.
