How to Beat Emerald Direwolf

Boss Tips


Use Repeated Shot to Deplete its Shield

Use Phenn's Repeated Shot skill to damage the Emerald Direwolf's shield by two points so you can break its shield early and deal more damage in the succeeding turns.

Use Repeated Shot When the Boss is Readying a Big Attack

The boss will periodically brace itself to prepare for a powerful attack and is indicated when it manifests a purple aura. When this occurs, make sure to use Phenn's Repeated Shot so you can interrupt and stun the boss for a few turns, allowing your party to deal as much damage as possible!

Use Stia's First Aid to Recover Health

The Emerald Direwolf can deal a lot of damage in quick succession, so make sure you use Stia's First Aid whenever one of your character's HP falls below half.

Stia doesn't deal that much damage with her own attacks, so she should Defend when the rest of the party doesn't need healing to conserve her own health as the boss tends to target her during the fight.

Boost Your Attacks to Deal More Damage

You can further increase the damage of your characters by boosting their attacks, which will cause a unit to deal several attacks in one turn. This boost is useful for when your run out of SP for your skills and you need to break or stun the Emerald Direwolf when it manifests its aura.
