How do you beat commander Niall

[The deep]

I can't even kill one of his summons but when i can he spams aoe attacks and you cant ever hit him, how do you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ do this?

[Velderuum]

[FreshlyGrilledPanic]

I'v heard of mad lads using the bewitching branches to turn the summons against him.

snow area

Happy to help, what's the pw?

[Izuzul]

For me I used the summon that gives you a group of Greatshield guys to distract one of the summons and the Commander while I took the other summon out. Then worked on summon 2. Then when It was just the Commander the fight is still tough but at least a 1v1

I tried bloodfang blade +9 and respecced to cold claymore +18 both with talismans and mimic tear

Bewitching branch is how I finally did it. You can turn his two summons into your allies for the fight but he might knock them out quickly but if they can last for a bit then you can do it pretty easily. Also any ashes you have to summon to can help. Check your crafting if you have been getting the books and you can probably make some or there is a merchant that sells them too.

he's in the snow area, "Castle Sol"

Mimic - tanky one kill the knights he spawns first, IIRC he doesn't summon more reinforcements? But be sure to have frost resistance as nail can spamm frost AOE

I beat him at level 45 + Zweihander+15 last night. Summon your mimic and take out the phantom on the right first when he charges you, then take out the shield phantom.

Once your mimic dies get some distance and he will do one or two of the same attacks by lunging at you. Dodge the lunge by rolling to the left and get a single roll attack in and then roll away and run backwards to get distance again. When you get distance you can use a throwable like the kukri to get some extra damage in (only throw it once). He will then use the same jumping and lunge attack, keep doing this cycle until he is dead.

mimic to tank the summons, blaidd's sword and jumping attacks to stagger him

i tried a cold infused claymore because fextralife said he was weak to frostbite.
