Tips

If the player is an Earth user, after Byakko used Strike Blast, quickly activate Kinjutsu: Embrace of Golem to prevent Byakko’s Howl from stunning the player. Blinding also reduce the hit chance of Howl, so did dodging.

Non-earth users can pick the Sensor Class Jutsu to rid this Fear.

If Byakko’s Protection is present, see whether you got DoT attacks/weapons/pets. If you had Kinjutsu: Falling Leaf Illusion then it’s good to Calm its Protection. Dark Eye users are advised to max out Meridian Destruction for 30% chance to cast Disperse.

Trivia

In Chinese constellations, Byakko is sometimes called the White Tiger of the West (西方白虎, Xī Fāng Bái Hǔ) and is known as Baihu Chinese, Byakko in Japanese, Baekho in Korean and Bạch Hổ in Vietnamese. It represents the west and the autumn season.
