Wandering In The Dark Quest: How Deal With The Golem, Gargoyle ...

How to finish the fight with the Wild Hunt Warrior

Fight the Wild Hunt Warrior

The first stage of your battle against the Wild Hunt warrior is relatively straightforward. Your opponent's primary attack is its sword swing which, while powerful, is pretty easy to avoid if you're careful. Simply wait until Keira lands a magical attack, causing the creature to stumble, then run in to take a few swings at its rear before it regains its composure. Cast Quen for some added protection in close quarters (and Thunderbolt to increase the power of your attacks), and step out of the scrum to recast the spell whenever your shield is shattered.

Once you've decimated the first part of the warrior's health bar, it crouches down and forms a protective shield around itself - keep away from this during the next stage of the battle as it will cause significant damage if you stray too close. Next, a rift opens in the room and hostile hounds begin to pour out. Immediately take care of them, then turn your attention back to the warrior.

Unfortunately, the warrior's health bar is now fully restored, so you'll need to lay into it all over again. Follow the same tactics as before and keep landing Thunderbolt-charged quick and heavy attacks while the creature is momentarily stunned by Keira's spells. As you near the end of the warrior's health bar, it conjures another shield and rift, summoning more hounds into the world.

Deal with the hounds quickly to prevent the warrior's health from restoring too much. When they're dead, turn your attention back to your primary target and finish it off once and for all.

Look for information about Ciri using your Witcher Senses

Loot the warrior's body, then begin exploring your immediate surroundings. There's a goodie-filled chest (containing armour and a handful of crafting recipes, among other things) up the small flight of broken steps near the warrior's corpse and a cracked wall to the south-west of your current location. Make note of it, then head east in the direction of the objective marker, looting the chests near the stone ledge.
