Defeat the White Raven boss battle in Spirit of the North 2 with this guide.
Spirit of the North 2 has just released and brings our furry fox friend back to save some lost animal Guardians. By mending their pain, through the medium of a boss battle, you’ll help heal the land. Not only that but you’ll gain an ally to take on the final boss, Grimnir, the Shaman.
Defeat the White Raven Boss Battle
To defeat the White Raven, you must first get to him. You’ll do that in the Misthaven area, the first main area of the game. It’s a wet and wild area, punctuated by lightning and strong winds. As you explore the area, you’ll unlock access to the Temple of the Raven. You can find it near the large lake in the centre of the area.
If you’re struggling to find the items needed to unlock the Temple of the Raven. Look to the sky and follow the red ribbons. Where these lead are the locations where the temple items are. Once you’ve found an item, return it to the Temple of the Raven. Once both have been found, you’ll be granted access.
Make your way through, and you’ll find the boss arena with the White Raven in it.

Pretty Talon-ted
If you’d rather watch a video, check out this one of me defeating the boss:
You’ll have reached the boss when you enter ‘The Great Library’. A coliseum-looking structure. This boss is pretty simple, remove the arrows from it.
To do that, you’ll need to wait till he launches an attack on you. When he does, trap him in a gate. Around the boss arena are levers in front of open gates. When the White Raven attacks he’ll get stuck in the open gateway, pull the lever and he’ll temporarily caught. You’ll need to use the lever of the gate the boss has gone into.
Approach him and look for an arrow sticking out of his body. Press the correct button, on Xbox it’s ‘X” to grab the attached string. Pull it away from him until the rope is no longer taut.
You’ll have to do it three times to defeat him:
- The first arrow is in the White Raven’s neck on the right side (his left).
- On his right leg (your left).
- On his right wing (to your left) – note that he’ll get his head stuck but you’ll need to go to the gate to the left of where he is trapped to see this arrow.
In between each arrow, he will attack with a cloud of red toxic gas that will do damage to you. To escape, you will need to ascend to the next level of The Great Library. Use the wind vents that are placed around each floor to get out of there. Jump and use your recently acquired ‘glide’ ability to ascend.
Once you’ve removed his third arrow, ascend one more time to trigger the ending cutscene.
Congratulations! That’s your first boss defeated. On to the next!
