The fight

A single phase, among rats that join the fight: clear them first.

One set: nothing changes during the fight.

Spells, transformation and soaks are set at a Keeper's Shrine, never mid-fight: what you bring into a fight stays until the end. One spell per category: Cloud Step and Rock Solid exclude each other, pick one before the fight.

What it inflicts

No status effect reported: physical claws, bites and charges.

Attacks to watch

Devastating charge when you back off: dodge sideways.
Grab: he backs up then lunges, with an orange glow; dodge, it hurts a lot.
Hind-leg kick if you stay behind him.

What works

Immobilize, then your transformation, then heavy attacks; circle around the structures while things recharge. Immobilize
Red Tides and the Guangmou spirit: Burn and Poison together take a big chunk of his health. Red Tides, Guangmou

Strategy

Clear the enemies around before attacking him.
His claws and bites often come in pairs: dodge twice before striking back.

Access

Village Entrance, Sandgate Village: the big gate near the shrine is locked, go around the wall; a breakable wall below a roof guarded by a rat archer leads to the heart of the village, where he waits. Optional.

What it gives

Will: 835
