The Golden Phoenix can also be used in both the Living Large and The Big Save combos:
- The Living Large combo uses a Golden Phoenix card and a Phoenix card, and requires 22 Magic Stones. This combo acts as a Helper type card. It protects the player and all other active friendly creatures from damage and restores their Hit Points.
- The Big Save combo uses one of each of the Sacred Beast cards, and requires 24 Magic Stones. This combo acts as a Summons type card. It restores both the player's Hit Points and in-use cards' lifespan and/or Weapon-uses. It also restores some cards by sending them across the screen towards the player, where the cards being returned will hit surrounding enemies.
As a Monster[]
The Golden Phoenix as an enemy is dangerous for how high up it flies. It is easy to lose track of when dealing with other enemies. When fighting the Golden Phoenix in the Proving Grounds, it will be accompanied by other powerful enemies, which makes things even more dangerous.
It might be best to use a Berserk Master card when dealing with the Golden Phoenix and the other Sacred Beasts, as the Berserk Master will cause all enemies to attack each other. The use of other Independent type or Helper type cards with the Berserk Master active is not recommended for several reasons. They could attack each other, harm the player, be targeted by the Berserk Master, and could be harmed if in the attack radius of the player.
While the Berserk Master is active, the player can collect Magic Stones when using a Devata card which will prevent the player from being attacked by both the Berserk Master and the Sacred Beasts. The remaining weakened enemies can be dealt with using with Weapon, Summons, or Transform type cards of the Berserk Master is still alive.
While the Berserk Master is extremely useful in the western releases of Lost Kingdoms II, his hit points were lowered in the Japanese release known as RUNE II, so this strategy is not as effective in the latter version.
