Where Winds Meet Review: A massive game that punches below its own weight
Where Winds Meet offers a little something for everyone, but the Wuxia RPG struggles under the weight of its own greatness.
Where Winds Meet: Wolf Maiden Boss Location
You may have already seen the Wolf Maiden's location on your map; she is on Kaifeng region's southeastern tipjust past the brown of the Granary of Plenty area. Her boss arena is marked with a red worm icon, and it's right at the eastern end of Desperation Ridge. There is a Boundary Stone near her location, so tag it first. You will need it.
The thing about the Wolf Maiden is she only appears at night. If you go to her arena any other time, it will be empty. You can either wait until night comes, or you can change the time of day Where winds meet. Set the clock anytime after the Xu hour (19) to make the Wolf Maiden appear.
How to beat the Wolf Maiden in Where Winds Meet
As with all bosses in Where winds meetyou need to spend some time familiarizing yourself with the Wolf Maiden's moves before you can beat her. Her attacks are fairly predictable, although she has some quick moves that are difficult to react to.
The first thing we recommend is to use an AI companion during the fight. Use whichever one is available to you, but if you want to have an easier time fighting the Wolf Maiden, you'll want to keep your buddy alive as long as possible. With the help of Stormbreaker Spear to taunt the boss is a good tactic for this.
As a general rule of thumb for boss fights like this, you'll want to save your big attacks and long combos only for when your target is exhausted/out of position. Focus on squeezing light or heavy attacks between Wolf Maiden's combos and focus on deflecting/parrying her moves until she runs out of Qi. When she's exhausted, go ham with your attacks before pressing the button on the screen to end your move. Rinse and repeat until she's down.
Your biggest opportunity to dish out tons of Qi damage against the Wolf Maiden is during her long 9 hit combo. It's pretty easy to parry once you get the timing down, and as long as you don't mind the delayed attack at the end of the combo, you'll be able to drain a lot of her stamina without taking damage. She does this move quite often.
Any of the Wolf Maiden's attacks that aren't glowing gold can be parried. This includes the delayed slash attacks she does during her second phase can also be deflected.
