Level 36
Sawashiro returns from the previousLike a Dragonwith a brand - young boss competitiveness .

8Narasaki Doesn’t Fight Fair
Level 43
MostLike a Dragon : Infinite Wealthbosses are n’t nonsuch of virtuousness , but Narasaki is especially slimy . He ’s not interested in a average fight , opening with a bombardment of gatling gun fire before sic his underlings on Kasuga and the party . Only once they ’re all defeated does Narasaki himself enter the fray - and his stats will result the histrion enquire why he ever rely on anyone else .
Unlike other boss , Narasaki does n’t have elemental failing . That mean the party will have to rely on other strategies , like positioning and artillery attack , to take him down . Thankfully , there are plentitude of chance for all of the above , and Narasaki ’s katana attack do n’t do too much terms .
7Infinite Wealth Has Ichiban Fighting Heavy Machinery Again
Another newLike a Dragontradition involves pitting Ichiban against various structure equipment . He press a wreck egg inLike a Dragon , and inInfinite Wealth , he fight not one , but two excavators . Each one does n’t hit too hard individually , but together , they can pack a biff . To make thing worse , the excavators do n’t move and ca n’t be criticize back .
The company ca n’t bank on environmental approach or combos in this conflict , but they can rely on the machines ' failing to water . With an Aquanaut or two in the party , and a stiff focus on one enemy at a prison term , this scrap is still difficult , but manageable .
6Infinite Wealth’s Giant Shark Is Mostly A Joke - Until It Isn’t
Level 46
campaign a elephantine shark is just so quintessentiallyLike a Dragon , the absolute pinnacle of man versus nature , that this fight could be called a foundation ofInfinite Wealth ’s base . Fought in the last chapter , the greatest of the slap-up whites mostly just exists for laughs . Mostly .
The giant shark mostly just slap the deck with comparatively limp AoEs that are well healed through . It ’s also weakly to lightning , so Eric can do a wad of damage in his Cabbie job here . Butevery now and then , the shark will target one political party member for a devastating attack , which could easily kill them if their HP is low . Stay ready for these strikes by keeping everyone ’s wellness topped up .
5Infinite Wealth’s Giant Squid Boasts Tactical Tentacles
Level 48
And utter of doing engagement with giant ocean creatures , it wo n’t be long before Ichiban has to face the kraken . While visually and thematically similar to the elephantine shark boss combat , the giant calamari is a little more mechanically complicated . It technically consists of three enemy : two tentacles and a head . The party will have to take out the former before the latter , which is extra helpful since the tentacles twofold as the squid ’s principal mean of attack .
This engagement might giveDragon Questplayers like Ichiban déjà vu - it ’s a point of reference to a like ( if much more difficult ) battle inDragon Quest 11 .
However , the calamary can regenerate its tentacle after a few play . Still , there ’s really only one strategy for this fight : tentacles , head , tentacles , head , et cetera . spliff to the program and it ’ll be over before long .
4Bryce Can Take A Hit
Level 50
Bryce may be the second - last boss inLike a Dragon : Infinite Wealth , but that does n’t of necessity mean he ’s the second - hardest . His attacks do n’t hit nearly as intemperate as expect , and he ’s very weak to water . fundamentally , the fight against Bryce is a test of stamina . He has high demurrer , so even the unassailable water attacks wo n’t do as much damage as they would to normal enemies .
The trick to this battle is not to burn through everyone ’s MP as presently as possible . Save the bragging attacks for the most opportune moments , and keep everyone ’s HP mellow , although not necessarily at 100 % . Bryce ’s gamy defence drags the fight out , and the political party will postulate to go blow - for - blow with him to win .
3Dwight Is A Recurring Boss With A Deadly Twist
Level 16 & 44
Much like Yamai , Dwight challenges Ichiban and party many times . Most of these fight are pretty simple : make for by Danny Trejo , Dwight capably wields dual matchet , alternate steady flak and stronger , quicker blows . The biggest issue to watch out for is Death Wish , a move in which he charges up for a turn before unleashing a quick one - two combo on a individual political party phallus - but since it has a long activation meter , the company has an chance to block in between .
Dondoko Island is one of Like a Dragon : Infinite Wealth ’s most exciting features , and knowing when it becomes accessible can help carry off anticipation .
During Dwight ’s concluding stand , however , there ’s a problem : the giant shark circles the sauceboat . This can be either helpful or harmful to the party , depend on what the shark decides to do . If it rears up its principal at the stern , it ’s possible to fling Dwight into the shark ’s maw for some extra damage . At other times , the shark will leap out into the air and snatch a random political party member , chomp down on them for hundreds of damage before slink back into the water . It ’s mostly up to random chance , so the party needs to be ready for anything .
