How to Beat Tor Gul, the Defiler

Tips to Beat Tor Gul, the Defiler


Stay Behind Tor Gul's Back or Sides and Dodge its Torso and Hand Slam

Players should stay behind Tor Gul or position themselves by his sides as most of his attacks, especially his frontal attacks like his fire breath, can be avoided by doing so, and it gives players ample time to deal damage.

However, players should watch out for Tor Gul's torso and hand slam as he quickly pivots toward players with these attacks. To dodge these attacks, players should move away from the area as soon as they see his torso twist or raise his right hand.

Stick to its Arms When it Traps You

Tor Gul

Out of all the AoE attacks in Tor Gul's moveset, the most dangerous one involves the player getting trapped between its arms and Tor Gul sending them a powerful fire blast and multiple fire tornadoes. Players should stick to Tor Gul's arms as much as possible to avoid getting hit.

Quickly Eliminate Summoned Minions

Whenever Tor Gul summons skeletal minions, players should eliminate them immediately and whenever possible. These minions can quickly become a hindrance if left alone, as they can limit players' dodge and positioning options.
