During Subquests, you will sometimes have to fight a boss while doing the quest. This page will pertain to the fight against Baihu.
Baihu is fought during The Gold Dragon’s Arrival
Where to Find Baihu¶
Baihu is a demon that is a part of The Gold Dragon’s Arrival quest. While you can log this quest at a low level, you will not be able to do battle with Baihu until much later in the game, as he is level 43. Teleport to the Nagatacho Leyline in Minato and head straight south, where you will find Baihu near some rocks.

Baihu |
When you look at Baihu’s stats, you will see that he has high Strength and even higher Agility. That gives Baihu a potential to dodge your attacks, which makes you lose some turns. There are only two ways one could counter this, by either casting Sukunda on him or Masukukaja on your party. Of course, the biggest problem with Baihu is that he has some strong Physical attacks. With two turns per round, if he managed to use something like Damascus Claw both actions, then there’s a good chance you might have one or two characters dying. Casting Marakukaja on your party will give you a better chance at surviving, as well as Tarunda on Baihu.
If you have finished The Tyrant of Tennozu quest and get to level 44, then you could get Belphegor, who has resistance to Physical. Depending on when you do this boss, you could also have a Belphegor’s Essence in your inventory, although it might be better to save that for another battle. Yoshitsune also has resistance to Physical, but is level 45 and might be a bit overkill for Baihu. Since Baihu resorts to only using Mazionga during the Magatsuhi charge, there isn’t really any need to worry about having anyone weak to Electric in your party. The ability to just toss an Elec Dampener when you see the charge is more than enough.

Fierce Roar’s Taunt doesn’t come into play here, but the increase in Defense does not help you at all, so Rakunda can be a good thing to include on someone. Likewise, you might want someone with Me Patra, too, since Frenzied Chomp has a chance to inflict one of three different ailments, on top of doing some decent damage. Baihu is weak to Force, so you should be including Zanma/Wind Dracostrike on your team, as you do want to get those extra Press Turns. Note that Baihu is actually weak to Confusion, so that is another method in which you can make the battle much easier on yourself. While he may still use the stronger skills mentioned above, there is a chance he will do nothing or even attack himself. As long as you don’t miss many attacks and keep on top of healing your party, Baihu shouldn’t be too much trouble.
