Now, let’s discuss how toutilize these toolswell enough to survive thethree intense phases of this battle.
Dettlaff’s Vampire Form
Unsurprisingly, the first phase is the easiest.

This means that Geralt will need toutilize a combination of dodges and swift attacks.
The objective is simple:Savage the opponent and don’t get hit.
A big part of that is planning ahead andgenerally keeping your distancewhen possible.
As the bats gather for the dive, there will be two phases of a black cloud-like animation.
Unlike with the bats, Geralt will have an opening to attack, but only briefly.
Then he should roll away in anticipation for Dettlaff to launch himself skyward, which can damage Geralt.

What’s even creepier is that Dettlaff’s most grotesque form is also present within this fleshy prison.
Finding yourself inside your foe is enough to cause anyone to start hacking mindlessly to find a way out.
You’ll want toauto-lock onto each heartin turn for this method.

Repeat this cycle on the two remaining hearts, and Geralt will have slain Dettlaff at last.
