Narf Twelvefingers is a goblin that shouldn't pose much of a threat if he was by himself. Unfortunately, he will not be alone in this fight. Taking out the rest of the enemies before dealing with him will give you the easiest time to defeat him.

Narf Twelvefingers Attacks and Abilities

Stab

Take out the Gnolls First

Gnoll.jpg
Narf Twelvefingers pose little threat by himself, it is the other enemies that surround him that will make this battle difficult. Focus on taking out the minions first before dealing with Narf, especially defeating the Gnolls first right away.

Dodge his Slashes and Parry his Stabs

unblockable slash.jpg
Narf has unblockable slashes, making blocking futile when against him. Whenever you see him go for a slash, it is much better to just dodge. Because this attack is unblockable, it means it is also not parryable. Even if Narf's slashes are unblockable, his stabs aren't. His stab attack is slower and easier to see, making parrying a viable tactic to help you counter his attacks.

Attack When Exhausted

After Narf has made a number of attacks, he will get exhausted, giving him a yellow highlight. This is when he is the most vulnerable and will not be able to take action for a few seconds.
