Can't beat Jenny O' The Woods

[raul-paul]

I tried like 20 times but I can't beat her...
Not even close.
YYRDEN doesn't help at all and she kills me easily.
I'm level 13 atm

Do some other quests, then go back when you're a few levels above the contract requirements. Wraiths are ♥♥♥♥♥♥ but she can definitely die.

No, Hydra, Yrden helps a lot; it's essential to materialize Jenny. It's pointless to try to hit her in her ghost form. (If you have the moon dust bomb already you may use it instead.).

Use specter oil and Quen and move a lot. Two hits and dodge or roll. This video demonstrates the technique:

The tactics against this kind of ghosts is simple:
1. Place Yrden.
2. Step back or roll back so she charges on you and gets into the trap.
3. Slice her three or more times until she's out of the trap.
4. Remove her copies ASAP.
5. Repeat 2-3 if Yrden is still active or 1-3 if Yrden is expired.

You can take out this way easily even overleveled nightwraiths.

I couldn't beat her the first few times either, although I was at the reccomended level. Just come back a few levels later and kick her ass.

Also, when she splits into the 3 copies, you can just run out of their range and wait until they disappear. That way they don't drain your health.

Thank you so much eveyone! I have enough info now :)

you need more level

Just run away when she conjures those mirror images, they can't drain you while you're out of range and will despawn after 5 seconds.

For all wraiths I use alt-Yrden. That works wonders, because not only does it make her materialise, it stuns her a little sometimes, and it takes out those mirror wraith things.
This is just about the only time I use Yrden at all, and I only use the alt-fire version.
