In this fight you will be dealing with a Perfumer and the Misbegotten Warrior. We recommend being at least level 50 for this encounter, ideally with a good amount of points in Vigor.

The encounter in Redmane Castle is also a double, although this time the Misbegotten Warrior is paired with a Crucible Knight when it reaches around 50% health. It's recommended to be at level 70 or higher to improve your chances of survival.

How to Beat Misbegotten Warrior

Tips for Beating Misbegotten Warrior
Learn the Parry Timings
Summon Spirits to Divide Attention
Use Hard-Hitting Spells at the Start of the Fight

Learn the Parry Timings

The Misbegotten Warrior is very aggressive and will continuously slash at you. If you get comfortable with at least one or two attacks and their parry timings, you can use the boss' aggressiveness to your advantage. Parrying will also help you to make the fight a 1 vs. 1 much more quickly.

Summon Spirits to Divide Attention

When dealing with multiple targets, it's a good idea to summon spirits to divide the attention of the bosses. Even if your spirit's aren't dealing much damage, they will buy you some time to take down the other target.

Use Hard-Hitting Spells at the Start of the Fight

Taking out a large amount of HP quickly at the start of the fight will help you to take out the Misbegotten Warrior and deal with the other target.
