He is not balanced correctly. I've had no trouble with anything in the game except him, who was impossible. I had the same build, no magic, all archer/ melee. shield and 1 handed sword. I couldn't get a dent on him in 20 or so tries at L 13. Tried every tactic anyone suggested to no avail. Watched Youtube videos and tried again. Nope. Dreamed up some of own like carving out the fungus so I get up on the wall, but he hits you up on the wall and you have less room to move, so nope.

But I had completed everything I could reach in the game map, so I cheesed a stairway into the Nomadlands and levelled to 18. Explored everywhere I could reach again, but any further upgrades were gated in red shroud until the Wyrm was dead.

With the best gear I could get, which included a good sword, a great bow, and and an OP wand, and dozens of practice runs I tried again. I never got him down past 80%. Not even close.

I was left with three options: 1; Quit the game and give it a D- review because I couldn't reach 40% of the content, 2; Go to Elwynn Forest to grind boars like the South Park crew to add levels but no gear and hope to do better at L 25 after skipping all the other content because I can't reach it, or 3: Cheat or mod the game. Thankfully the wemod app is already figuring out that the game needs adjustment. I used it just long enough to kill the worm and open that gate.

Until I realized it will also turn off the shroud timer completely too. I urgently disliked the shroud timer. Getting rid of it brought my eventual review up an entire letter grade.

Try the Wyrm until it's not fun any more, then kill him with the wemod app. It's free, and only takes a few minutes to download.

My man wrote an entire essay just to say they're not good at the game lol.

Get a weapon with life steal on hit, craft bandages, bring a decent stack of honey with you, unlocked air attack, dash attack, and blink.

Dash in out of attacks using blink and dash attack. When the boss is stunned spam air attack. Constant use of honey means your stamina will be regenerating way more effectively, life steal and bandages means you have constant health regen.

This isn't hard lol.

bit late but shoot the head when he rears up it stuns him and you can run in and do lots of damage, he'll recover but just rinse and repeat.

so instead of trying a little bit more you cheated?
he pissed me off at first to but hitting him in the mouth when he rears back is the best way..and i dont even use food buffs.

Its a level 15 area so you are slightly under leveled, especially if you haven't gotten all the skill points in from the shroud roots in the areas available to you.

You are one of the most consistently negative posters I see in this forum Nerevar

thats why ive blocked them not only negative but extremely rude as well !

the best way to deal with the wyvern is to keep running and hit it in the mouth when they rear back to charge its attack then rush in and hit it with your best weapon
