Tips on defeating the Shaelmaar (possible spoiler)?

I'm struggling defeating the Shaelmaar in the arena, I noticed once it was on it's back thus vulnerable, how do I get it on it's back again please?

Keep dodging and make sure you aare near the walls,that way it bangs is head and falls on his back.

It doesn't like fire, and also i found if you give it any breathing room it will go crazy and do mad damage.

I just defeated it, quite easily using the wall tatic on Blood and bones mode.

Great fight though!

Remember to apply relict oil to deal additional damage. Use a tawny oil for incr stamina regen & swallowtail potion for incr damage. Then keep spamming Aard sign to stun it and slash quickly 1-2x over and over again until it dies, but make sure you're hitting it in front (face & belly region).
