The boss from The Witcher 3 is a key keeper. How to win: tactics and player tips.

Despite the fact that the Witcher 3 game itself was not too long in the story, and the battle system was implemented very primitively and allowed to destroy some opponents even 10 levels higher than Geralt, the game won the hearts of millions of gamers around the world. And their devotion was rewarded - on November 13, 2015, an addition came out - “Stone Hearts”, which added new colors to the tactics of battles with opponents.

Plot

Let's start with a small quest spoiler that you will encounter in The Witcher 3: Stone Hearts. How to defeat the keeper is a standing question, but you still have to get to the boss before that.

The first part of the quest will consist of the orders of a certain Olgerd von Everek. You can perform them in any order. One of them will be the call of his dead brother and accompanying the character to the wedding. Here you will have the opportunity to watch a video of erotic content, if you will properly conduct a dialogue with Shani. The second task is to bring the Borsodi house at auction. You will have to arrange a raid on the mansion. During the quest, you can get snake school equipment (advanced) if you buy drawings from Countess Mignol and a steel sword near the casket, if you decide to kill the brothers.

Now you will be sent to the Algerd estate for a rose. This is the third additional quest The Witcher 3. The key keeper, the victory of which we will analyze further, will appear at the very beginning. He is the gatekeeper in the mansion, so victory will open the way for further adventures.

Bestiary

Before defeating the keeper (The Witcher 3), let's find out his story. In essence, it is a creature called from another world. The term “demon” is most applicable to it. However, the witcher's bestiary classifies him as a "relic." And therefore, it is not known for certain to which genus the key keeper belongs.

The magic that called him into this world tied the character to the estate and since then he has been following the house and the plot, and also protecting him from uninvited guests. The summoning spell itself obviously contained a mistake, so the key keeper kills everyone who dares to approach the cursed estate. He neatly buries the victims along the fences and over time this place has become a real cemetery.

Low complexity

If this is your first time playing this game and choosing the minimum difficulty level, then this boss should have no problems. Use a standard tactic against most tenacious characters.

Use the Quen Sign to protect yourself from enemy attacks and simply chop it as soon as possible. The ghosts he will summon are killed with one shot from a crossbow, so it may take a double shot skill.

The main feature of the boss is his ability to restore health by striking and killing ghosts. But he carries out the call only two times on one-third and two-thirds of the strip of HP. This can be endured and then calmly kill him. Now you know how to defeat the key keeper.

“The Witcher 3”, although it provides you with an opponent with unique mechanics, but in reality he turns out to be a banal opponent who can be defeated by familiar skills.

Training

With the increasing complexity of the game, the problem of defeating one of the most unpleasant bosses in the game “The Witcher 3”, the key keeper, will grow. How to defeat him with ever-increasing difficulties?

We will talk about the abilities and blows of the guard himself below. Remember: first you need to prepare for the battle. As already mentioned, you are dealing with a relic. So make sure that you have the appropriate oil in stock.

It is also important to choose the right place for the battle. Some players claim that if you lure the keyman from his clearing closer to the place where you came from, he will not raise ghosts. This means that the destruction process will go much easier.

Melee

Flip-flops - one of the main methods of avoiding blows in the game "The Witcher 3". The housekeeper, whom we will tell you in detail about defeating, does not fall for such tricks and still catches up with you in passing to avoid a blow in this way. Therefore, remember the main thing - use only evasion (Alt key).

In battle, be as close to the enemy as possible and avoid his attacks. When he swings to hit the ground, cross behind him and begin to strike (no matter what technique you use). After five or six cuts, jump out and continue the "dancing" around.

To avoid damage between attacks, apply Quen and everything will be in order.

Magician

No wonder the comments on the update say that the most interesting boss of the game “The Witcher 3” is a key keeper. How to defeat him? The fact is that this is practically the only character who removes debuffs from himself. And this can be successfully used.

Pump the Badge of Yarden so that it slows down the enemy. Then, when falling into a circle, the key keeper will begin to take it off. At this point, you will have a few seconds to deal damage. Also enchant your swords at Fill. This will allow you to apply the Sign effect with blows and extend the debuff removal time by a few more seconds. Thus, the next boss of the game “The Witcher 3” will be defeated - the housekeeper, which we just told how to defeat.
