How to Beat Gotafrid Fairrobes

  • Gotafrid cycles through all of the melee weapon types throughout the fight. His move set and general mechanics differ depending on which weapon combination he uses.
  • Gotafrid usually starts off with his dane axe and one of his shields. His move set with this weapon combination consists entirely of light attack combos. Take advantage of this by parrying his attacks as much as possible and stagger him.
  • Gotafrid can switch to a two-handed stance with his dane axe. Be wary of his sweeping attacks and charged attacks. It is important to note that all of his attacks are unblockable during this stance.
  • Gotafrid's three weak spots can be easily shot with arrows whenever he uses his two-handed stance with his Dane Axe.
  • Try to position the fight away from the weapon racks present in the plaza as much as possible as Gotafrid can run towards them and hurl spears from those racks toward you.
  • Gotafrid can dual-wield two light shields. His move set during this time resembles the one used in fist fights or brawls—with the added danger of easily parrying your attacks with the shields. Try to attack from the flank or rear whenever he uses this weapon combination.
  • All of Gotafrid's one-handed weapons can either be in his main hand and off hand. The position of some of these weapons unlocks even more moves and mechanics for Gotafrid.
  • Watch out for fast and unblockable attacks whenever Gotafrid wields his hammer in his main hand.
  • Be mindful of his repeating stabs whenever Gotafrid wields his seax in his off hand.
  • Gotafrid can use the Throwing Axe Fury ability whenever he has his bearded axe equipped on either hand. Prepare to dodge out of the way whenever he uses this.
  • Gotafrid can use the Dive of the Valkyries ability to close the distance between you and him whenever you are too far away. Try not to stay away from him for too long to avoid this from happening.
  • Gotafrid tends to get knocked off his feet whenver you parry three attacks in a row. Use this to your advantage.
