Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance - How To Beat Loup-garou (Weakness & Resistances)
Loup-garou is one of the many bosses you have to beat in 's main story, but this foe can pose quite a challenge against your party. Without the right team, you will undoubtedly struggle against this demonic werewolf standing in your way. You need to understand this creature's weaknesses and resistances to gain the upper hand and ultimately win the fight.
The boss form of Loup-garou should be encountered at least at Level 28 or higher since both your demons and Nahobino will then be able to match its strength. Unlike later endgame bosses such as Mother Harlot in , Loup-garou doesn't have nearly as many moves. This should help you form a strategy with fewer scenarios to predict than against an enemy with a longer list of attacks.
The Trumpeter makes another appearance in the Shin Megami Tensei series as part of the Return of the True Demon DLC for Shin Megami Tensei V.
The highest Attribute stats for Loup-garou are Strength and Magic, making it a demon that specializes in offensive attacks against your party. Those who have fused or recruited this demon in the game already may have some understanding of its weaknesses, but the boss version operates a little differently. Thankfully, you don't have to worry about Loup-Garou's weaknesses being randomized like Mitamas in .
