Tips and Strategies

Kill the Ravager First

During the fight against Vezreh, make sure that you kill the Ravager first. It is very fast and dangerous, which is why using Acid and Fire arrows are the best way to weaken it.

Use Concentration Against Vezreh

Vezreh is equipped with a powerful ranged weapon. Use cover to prevent yourself from getting hit, and find openings to deal damage. His weapon can destroy cover, so you have to keep on moving to avoid taking too much damage.
