any advice on how to win this duel?

[juniorbrake]

strike and jump back got me through it, took about 8 attempts, last attempt i seemed to get lucky

this is the first real duel in the whole game, everything else before that was like 1 shot and go :D

In any case jumping a lot helps to dodge, just be careful that if you get dazed by 2 strike in a row you are dead...

Better armour and weapons. I found the dueling combat system too awkward for my liking.

Stupid design in otherwise good game. I have respectable equipment (excalibur + armor of king richard), and have virtually no chance. Not because of power of enemy, but non responsiveness of controls.

That equip is quite medium level, but I did it with that and succeeded, you just need to jump a lot :D

Both just two below highest :)
I did it, indeed, and actually I fared better with even lower armor (with higher stagger resistance). But the design of this minigame IS stupid. I enjoyed swordplay in old pirates WAY more.

However, finished, now enjoying freeplay.

I do not want to sound negative - it is great game, worthy spiritual successor - altough kind of simplified - of old uncharted waters.

Just the minigame and surprising jump in difficulty was... frustrating.

eheh but with the avenger you can slice him very easily... is not just about the damage the swords, is all about the stagger, more staggering = time to hit again and stagger more = win easy :D

No idea, I just held the attack button and he walked into it and died. Using Avenger and Pope Robes.

s key duck from his attacks for me which made is 100 times easier.

With the avenger there is no game, it has a stagger so high that 1 hit and it won't recover for 10s XD

Finding avenger and pope robes is different story, though :)
