Ciri's Story: Out of the Shadows Tips and Strategies

Fighting the Basilisk

Basilisk Fight
The basilisk's attacks have poison, so be wary of taking too many hits. It will attack in big, wide swings, so use hit and run tactics when it is on the ground – hitting then dodging away.

When the basilisk is flying, you can simply dodge its attacks and stall for time until it lands on the ground. When fighting it on the ground, use your dodge to get behind the basilisk. It will need to turn, making dodging it's attacks easier.
