How to Fight Grave Hags

How to Fight

The best way to deal with Grave Hags is to stagger or stun them and use those openings to attack them. You can do this by casting the Aard Sign or the Axii Sign to temporarily stop them and use that opening to attack. You can also cast the Yrden Sign and fight around the Yrden trap or drink a Black Blood Potion to slow down its relentless attacks.

It is also possible to counter the tongue lash of the Grave Hag in order to sever its tongue.

What Preparations to Make?

You should use your Silver Sword and coat it with Necrophage oil to deal bonus damage to them. Prepare a Black Blood Potion incase you are having trouble dealing with the Grave Hag's relentless attacks.

Special Sign Effects

  • Aard - This can stagger them and give you openings to attack them.
  • Igni - If your Sign Intensity is high enough, this can burn them and give you a large opening to attack.
  • Yrden - This can slow them down allowing you to react faster to its movments and attacks.
  • Axii - This can stun them for a short duration and give you openings to attack them.

Following these instructions will keep you alive for about 10 seconds until the grave hag does enough damage to kill you. Does anyone know how to kill the grave hag?
