Dueling Tips

Choose the Best Response

Suikoden 2 - Duel Triangle
Attack If your enemy is defending himself, this move deals damage. But if you Attack while your enemy does a Special Attack, you will lose a huge amount of HP.
Defend If your enemy is doing a Special Attack, your character will not receive any damage and the attacker will get damaged instead.
Special Attack If you do a Special Attack while your enemy is about to do an Attack, it will deal a huge amount of damage. If your enemy is defending, however, you will get damaged instead.

Duel battles rely on the duel triangle seen above. Attack beats Defense, Defense beats Special Attack, and Special Attack beats Attack. Players will win duel battles by predicting your enemy's actions and counteracting them.
