How to Fight a Succubus

How to Fight

You can only encounter this fight during the Secondary Quests: Practicum in Advanced Alchemy and Deadly Delights.

The best way to deal with the Succubus is to interrupt its spell casting and attacking them during those interruptions. You can do this by throwing Dimeritium Bombs or hitting them with the Aard Sign when they are trying to cast a spell.

You can also use the Northern Wind Bomb to freeze them in place and attack them while they are vulnerable.

What Preparations to Make?

You should use your Steel Sword to deal damage to them as Silver Swords coated with Hybrid oil is ineffective against them. Prepare some Dimeritium Bombs and Northern Wind Bombs to throw at them and interrupt their spell-casting or to freeze them in place.

Special Sign Effects

  • Aard - This can make them stagger shortly and can interrupt them while they are trying to cast a spell.
