Here is everything you gotta know about crafting in Path of Exile 2.
Are you looking to complete The Mad Wolf Of Ogham quest and take on Count Geonor?
You’ve come to the right place.
This is part of the quest calledThe Trail of Corruption, which shows up later in Act Two.
How To Reach The Manor
Now, you are in the Manor Ramparts.
How To Defeat Geonor
The time has come to defeat Geonor.
Let’s go over his main phases, and the moves he uses during each.
Human Form
In human form, Geonor won’t be too difficult to deal with.
Attack
Description
Notes
Sword Thrust
Geonor will thrust his sword forward sending out a projectile in a line.
This can easily be dodged.
The key to this is to avoid being trapped in the ice cone.
When his sword starts charging up, run away.
Basic Melee Sword Swings
Geonor will swing his sword in front of him.
He looks like he is twirling around when he does this.
When Geonor dashes forward, this means that he is about to use this attack.
At this point, the key is to dodge right as he swings.
Icy Sword AoE
Geonor will thrust his sword into the ground when he turns into a wolf.
The word will radiate icy ground that grows bigger that will cause you to freeze.
This move can easily be spotted due to the ice.
Still, when it’s big, it can be hard to avoid.
If you must step in it, be sure to move quickly.
Summon Wolfs
Geonor will summon wolves to aid him.
These are average adds that aren’t too difficult to defeat.
To avoid becoming overwhelmed, take a stab at take them out quickly.
Bloody Charge
Geonor will create blood spheres and then charge through them.
AoE Slam
Geonor will temporarily leave, and then slam down on the ground.
Right before he slams down, you’ll see a large red circle on the ground.
The best thing to do here is run to the edge and doge-roll away.
Unfortunately, this form will now be atfull health.
At this point, the fight will most likely get harder for you.
Here at TheGamer,we faced death time and time again during this portion of the fight.
Vast Ice Spikes
Geonor will slam his sword into the ground and cause little circles of ice to appear.
After a short delay, these will turn into large ice spikes.
It’s fairly easy to avoid this.
Summon Fog
Geonor will cause fog to appear around the area along with smaller wolf summons.
Geonor will recite a poem and dash across the arena periodically when the fog is present.
This part can be difficult due to limited visibility.
As such, attempt to dodge-roll right as he finishes a line.
We recommend moving along the edge of the area (in the fog).
During this section, it’s important to continuously be moving.
Run in a circle around the arena dealing damage.
Thankfully, the wolf summons will disappear with the fog.
Icy Breath
Geonor will shoot (or breathe) icy projectiles from himself in a cone.
Ice Beams
Geonor will summon ice beams from the sky that cover the arena.
The beams will be summoned several times in a row, changing positions each time.
At this point, you’ll want to take a break from attacking and focus on dodging the beams.
These beams work exactly the same, but they deal more damage.
The same technique applies here, but these can quickly kill you since they deal more damage.
Overall, just give a shot to dodge as much as possible and continuously move around.
We died to him… a lot.
Thankfully, there are some tips to keep in mind to help with this fight.
Consider Playing With Others
There is no shame in getting help from others.
With just one other person in your party, the fight may get a bit easier.
Learn From Death
Death is natural during this fight.
From here, you’ve got the option to move on to Act Two.
