How To Beat Dug In Trial By Combat
Speak to the guard here and select the boss option, then"Trial By Combat: Dug"to prove yourself. Enter the Trial Grounds and begin your first round against Dug.
Dug moves slowlyand uses a double-bladed lance.Dodge his dash attackthat can close the gap and steer clear of his diving attack from the air.
Despite his lack of speed, Dug is incredibly sturdy,so take things slowly and be careful ofDug’s ranged Lance throw,which is difficult to dodge unless you get behind him.
Dug is weak against poison and fire attacks;switch to the best weapons you have for each type to deal increased damage against this difficult foe.
Hit Dug withpoison attacks from range,and soon he will be defeated, finishing the first of the Trial By Combat side quests.
How To Beat Denis In Trial By Combat
Exit the trial grounds and talk to the guard again, selecting"Trial By Combat: Denis"as your next challenge before returning to the Trial Grounds.
Step forward and face Denis, who opens with a crossbow shot. Denis isn’t much faster than Dug, but hisranged attacksmake him a more threatening opponent.
Don’t forget to use your Whetstoneto make these battles easier, as the increased damage is essential, even if you’re using the best weapons available.
Denis is weak to Poison and Ice;set up the corresponding trapswhile he lumbers towards you with his shield up.
With Denis briefly stunned by walking into your traps, you can capitalize on the opening withfollow-up Elementa attacks.
Using careful positioning and counterattacks, Denis will go down too, arguably even more easily than Dug.
