NITHRAL - Boss freezes his location after first round of 3 hounds and remains at 100% health.

[fvonberger]

I've CANNOT Do the Nithral Fight. After the first 3 Hounds are killed the Nithral is in his shield being hit by the woman. The game then keeps the nithral in his shield permanetly. The only thing i can do is attack him and get damaged for touching him until i eventually die. The game is frozen with the nithral at 100%. I have just done the big new patch downloaded the 21 GB patch.

Has anyone else been stuck on the mithral fight???????

My copy is on GOG galaxy but I fixed it by verifying the game

I faced the same issue today, after some research, I Verfied the game using the game's properties in Steam client.


Should also be fixed using gog client as you said.

I played through the Nithral level today-> seems like the 1.11 Update patch fixes this problem.... Hints to others stuck on Nithral... You need to use the Quen Shield - number 6 on keyboard. You also need the swallow potion -> Oils Bombs and Potions are recharged by having some kind of alcohol in your inventory and doing a meditation session -> this resets 3 bottles of Swallow then place the bottle in the second consumable slot and use T to use it between the 2 wolf rounds and 3 nithral rounds.....Also attack him from the back and side by rolling around alot - space to roll left right and backwards. ALT to Dodge. Also keep the witch between yourself and the nithral. She continually double attacks him.
Press Q to Quen Shield yourself then do 1 single strong attack when he gets hit by lightening. then either roll or dodge back, or roll forward turn and attack him one more time - then retreat and Q do it all aver again. The shield only lasts for 7 seconds and takes about 2 to start working.
This method is time consuming - 7 to 10 mins but gets around not having any consumables.......Good Luck....
