Boss Battle: The Crones

The Crones have been taunting you since Velen, with their creepy, child eating voodoo. It’s time to kill them, once and for all. After a spooky introduction to the fight, Ciri is launched into a three-on-one fight with the witches.

Right off the bat, focus on Brewess. She is the fat one. She is slow and barely moves. She is an easy target to pick off. Dodge her devastating swing attacks though. Stay on her side or behind her when attacking. Weavess and Whispess will try and hit you when you wail on their sister. Avoid their crow transformations, by side stepping or blinking out of the way. Remember to use your new charge attack to deal lots of damage quickly. In no time Brewess will be down, and you can focus on the other two.

For Weavess and Whispess, it’s all about patience. Keep an eye on your health and dodge around the room, if you need time to regenerate it. The Crones like to teleport by either turning into crows and flying behind you, or swimming in the blood on the floor. Watch for ripples in the water to see where they go.

Use Blink if they are close by to deal damage to them both. Otherwise, hit them one at a time, until they teleport. Whittle down their health, while dodging their attacks and the Crones will be dead in no time.
