When this happens, he prioritizes going after them above all else, essentially ignoring the rest of the team as he does so. He swings his shield around, damaging those who are close to him.Occasionally leaps into the air and smashes back down to the ground. Charges at all enemies from time to time.Sometimes throws his shield at foes, dealing damage and stunning players. Phase two Gains the ability to heal himself when damaging his marked prey.Sometimes performs a dashing pounce. If the first one misses, he tries again. If that one also misses, he'll be stunned for a bit. Unlocks a channeling ability where he channels and then appears behind his targeted prey. He then pins them down and dishes out a devastating claw combo. Players can work together to deal enough damage against him to break the channel, saving the prey from an otherwise potentially deadly situation. When Capwolf is close to dying, he starts regenerating health and gains a massive shield. If his shield is broken, he loses some of the health he gained. This can be triggered only once.

Capwolf shines at up close combat, and I've watched many of my allies try to fight him up close and perish in battle. Try your best to fight from a healthy distance away during this boss battle for the best odds of beating him. Back up when needed. Some characters, like Blade, do their best when performing up close, melee combat, so you'll likely be tempted to do so here.

Focus on running when you're marked as prey. If Capwolf chooses you as his target, your singular focus should shift to pure survival. His pursuit is relentless and deadly, so focus on running while he's chasing you.

Capwolf unlocks the ability to heal from dealing damage against his marked prey during phase two, so if it's you, do your absolute best to avoid being hit by him.

When you're not Capwolf's prey, try to help your ally who is however you can. Dish out as much damage as possible while he focuses his attention elsewhere, and if your teammate is in trouble, try to get in Capwolf's way to give them time to get away. Break Capwolf's channel. During phase two, you'll see Capwolf focus and start to channel with his sights set on whoever his prey is.
