According to leaks, Genshin Impact 2.3 will introduce a new boss called the Golden Wolf Lord on the new island of Tsurumi.

In this guide, we will discuss all the leaks about the new boss in 2.3, show a demonstration of its abilities, describe the battle, and much more. Let's get started!

Attacks of the Golden Wolf Lord: Gameplay Description

The Golden Wolf Lord will inflict corrosion upon hitting. This effect deals damage over time, and shields are useless against it. Therefore, a healer like Jean or Kokomi should make this boss much easier.

Considering the design of the 2.3 boss, it's not surprising that it will deliver a variety of clawing and biting attacks. It can also summon some helpers called Rifton Alphas to provide protection. To avoid problems with this boss, bring a Geo character and a strong archer to your team.

Opinions of beta testers about the Golden Lord:

1. Is it difficult to defeat the boss using only close-range fighters?

It's very difficult.

2. Did the boss become easier after the last nerf?

No, it's still challenging to deal with.

3. Is a Geo character needed in the team?

The wolf heads (boss's mimics) are easiest to defeat with Geo abilities.

The author added that Gan Yu can handle it quickly (which is not surprising). Naturally, the boss may become easier by the release if it gets nerfed again. Nothing critical, but the boss mechanics and the requirement for Geo complicate the task a bit.
