Wolf of the North Genshin Impact attacks
When you’re in melee range of the boss in Phase 1, you’ll get slash attacks. These attacks are quick, and if you’re playing a melee character, it’ll be difficult to avoid them. It will perform a charge attack or sweep its tail to throw ice missiles that erupt at random when you are outside of its melee range.
To avoid these strikes, you should use a ranged character and stay near to the boss, just close enough to avoid its slashes.
The boss will occasionally do an ice leap into your spot. The ice circle on the ground will identify the damaged region. To get out of it, you’ll have to dash twice.
The boss will enter Interlude Phase when its HP hits around 50%. The arena will be blanketed with icy dust during this phase, and the boss will dash around the arena’s perimeter. When it attacks, it will come to a halt in front of you and charge at you. All you have to do is keep an eye on it and get out of the way when it does something.
The boss will enter Phase 2 after a short period of time. The boss will gain more attacks in this phase, in addition to the assaults from Phase 1.
- Icicle Storm: The boss summons random ice explosions raining down from the sky that deals Cryo damage and slow.
- Wolf King Roar: The boss roars and deals continuous Anemo damage in a huge AOE around him.
- Ice Waves: The boss raises his front leg, creates an ice path in front of him then releases an ice wave that deals damage.
- Wind Blades: The boss raises his front leg, summons 3 wind vertical blades toward the players.
Anrius will summon Small Phantom Wolf to attack the player if his HP goes below 20% or if you wait too long to kill him.
Wolf of the North Genshin Impact weakness
Because Anemo and Cryo are immune to Andrius, these characters are not recommended. The elements Electro and Pyro are advised for dealing with the boss. Pyro is the best option because it deals more damage.
Users of the bow and catalyst are the best for dealing with the boss because they can avoid his attacks in time. You can also hit the monster with a charged shot with a bow while he is in Interlude Phase.
Characters like Amber, Itto, and Xiangling who can call a dummy to taunt the boss are quite valuable. With Electro charged and Superconduct, Barbara and Fischl can deal a lot of damage while keeping your HP up.
The Wolf King Roar doesn’t cause much damage, especially if you have a good shield/healer, thus this is an excellent time to hit the boss as often as you like.
To get through Phase 1 without breaking a sweat, there is one trick. All you have to do now is climb out of the area and assault the boss with a ranged character. The boss will be powerless to intervene.
