Tips and Strategies

Dodge! Attack! Rinse! Repeat!

While the first wave of enemies here are your regular duergar, the Stygian Raiders are pretty nimble. So mastering when to dodge is crucial. This is the same for the boss later on as the duo can overwhelm you with continuous attacks.

Boss Strategy: Garnn and Murdunn

Garnn

Garnn is similar to most duergar - he is a defensive specialist. He does have one weakness though - he is easy to knock down. Once his shield is downed, he will be vulnerable for a second or two and if you're fast enough you can easily chip away 10%-20% of his health.

This is easier to do if you deal with Murdunn first as he is the more annoying one of the pair and can easily knock you down.

Murdunn

Murdunn is a magician and he's pretty good at it. You can receive a barrage of spells and stay down for a few seconds, allowing Garnn and their minions to hit you.

The strategy with Murdunn is quick and simple - do not let him cast his spells. Inflict massive combos on him and once he falls Garnn will be much easier to defeat. However, be wary of long ranged minion attacks that may interrupt you. So attack, dodge - rinse and repeat.

How to Beat Garnn and Murdunn

3		After defeating all of the enemies and acquiring your second short rest, destroy the debris on the left side then jump across the gap. Head up the stairs to open the chest.
4		After crossing another bridge, keep following the path to the right to get to the chest.
5		After acquiring your fourth short rest, You can break the barricade near the ballista to reveal a path to a chest. Be careful as the place is filled with spike traps and flamethrowers.
