Greater weretiger

[Humble]

I google and seach, seem no one bring up this problem, I happen to fight weretiger, and seem every damage is zero, how do I kill weretiger? I can't find answer

In legends you used Silver weapons to kill lycanthropes. In Pathfinder most were beings have a damage reduction of 10 to any non-silver weapons.

[Serrassi Effect]

silver and magic should bypass the damage reduction The barbarian landed a nasty critical hit on it for me, taking away most of its hp and I quickly finished it off with spells.

Yep, I don't see silver weapon in act 1?

I don't think there is any silver weapon in act 1. The only damage resistance bypassing weapon I found in act 1 was a cold iron dagger +1. Useful against the bear-treant, dryads, etc. It doesn't help at all against the weretiger and the wererats, though.

Basically, to hurt him you have to either use magic, or attacks that do more than 10 points of damage. If your party is mostly melee, sneak attacks and two handed weapons with power attack will easily deal damage to the weretiger. Bring Amiri, cast enlarge person, have her use rage & power attack and watch the weretiger explodes when she hits for 30 per hit.

Hmmm Amiri can't damage with her fav sword wtih level 4 with auto level at a time, see no damage, even with enlarge.

Maybe the AI doesn't pick power attack for her? Strange. To give you an idea, with power attack, enlarged, she does : 3d8 (oversized weapon x 2) + 4 (str bonus) + 4 (power attack) + 4 (2h bonus). That's 15 to 36 dmg per hit, 30 to 72 on a crit. She should be cutting through that 10 damage resistance like butter.

Otherwise magic is always a decent option.
