Tesham Mutna Tips and Strategies
Fighting Dettlaff
Prepare for the fight with Vampire Oil and Black Blood Potion. Dettlaff will have 3 forms. After you've lowered his health to a certain point, he will change his form. He is also not affected by Axii or Aard. He is almost immue to Crossbows and Bombs that have effects besides damage.
Vampire Form
This form fights similarly to when you fought Dettlaff in the quest Blood Run. Bleeding, Poison, and Yrden are not effective agianst him.
| Attacks | |
|---|---|
| Talon attack | Dettlaff swings his talons at you. Attacks around 3-6 times. Can be parried and countered. |
| Dash attack | Dettlaff will step back then after a puff of smoke, dash towards you to attack you. Can be parried and countered |
| Charged Dash attack | It is similar to the normal dash attack but Dettlaff's talons will glow red and he will jump before slashing you. Can be countered. |
| Teleport attack | Dettlaff will teleport behind Geralt. Is done after hitting Dettlaff 5 times after countering, or after Dettlaff parries 2 of your attacks. |
All of Dettlaff's attacks are counterable. It is recommended to counter Dettlaff attack's to stun him for 5 attacks, then dodge away right after, as he will follow with his teleport attack.
Beast Form
Dettlaff will transform into a vampire beast. He will be flying most of the time, and is invulnerable to fire.
| Attacks | |
|---|---|
| Swooping attack | Dettlaff will fly low and try to hit you. Can be grounded with a sword strike, crossbolt, bomb, Agni or Aard when close enough. He will be vulnerable when grounded. |
| Bat Swarm attack | Dettlaff will fly up and a swarm of bats will gather around him. After a moment, the swarm of bats will fly towards Geralt. Try to sprint away, and then when the bats are about to come, sprint to the side to dodge it. |
| Dive attack | The ground will be marked, and after a moment, Dettlaff will dive onto the spot. He will be vulnerable for a few seconds before flying off again. When he takes off, he will unleash a blast that deals damage and will leave a trap that will hold Geralt in place if stepped in. |
While Dettlaff is flying, he is invulnerable to everything. He is only vulnerable when he is grounded after diving, or after you ground him when he does the swoop attack. Dodge his attacks and attack him when he is vulnerable.
Blood Form
In Dettlaff's Blood form, you will be constantly be attacked by a blood clone. Whenever you kill it, it will revive after a few seconds. There will also be 3 pillars with a heart at the base.
| Attacks | |
|---|---|
| Claw attacks | The blood clone swings its claws. Can be a single attack or a combo. Can be parried or countered. |
| Dash attack | The blood clone will turn into blood and dash towards you. Can be parreid or counterd. |
| Dive attack | Similar to the Beast form dive attack. Will do it after respawning when destroyed. |
Focus on the 3 hearts. Even if you kill the blood clone, it will just respawn after awhile. You can simply continue to dodge its attacks and focus on the hearts. Countering its hits will stun it for a moment, giving you breathing room to hit the heart pillars.
