Tips and Strategies

Quick On Your Toes

The enemies here are not exactly strong defensively. They are quite easy to destroy. However, the duergar ranged attackers drop bombs when they die so try and evade quick.

Boss Strategy: Stonegrinder

Quick Attacks

This boss is pretty quick compared to the first boss in Act 1. However, since he is quite big, his moves can be predicted. Quick attacks work well here but also time your dodges since he is much quicker.

Additionally, he is susceptible to being stunned/staggered so take advantage of those moves and unleash your combos.
