- 5Defeat the mid-boss Bugbear.
- 6Clear the chapter by defeating the boss General Brigan.
Tips
- To level your base level quickly, consume Yogurt and then eat recipes.
- Keep track of recipes eaten three times by observing the Red Exclamation Mark on the Bonus; it disappears when the condition is met for a single character.
- For Frost Ben, hit the tiny horn on its head. The High Thrust skill, found in the bottom section of Winterhorn Ridge, is effective.
- Items like Blaze or Toxic Cloud can deal significant damage to Frost Ben if it remains static.
- Attack the trolls on top of Frost Ben; they will throw snowballs and can be defeated to fall onto the ground. These trolls do not respawn (be brought back to life at a checkpoint after death).
- In harder difficulty modes, Frost Ben may spam its roll or ground pound attacks, which can be dodged using the evade button or guard option.
- Bugbear has sluggish movement, making its attacks easy to dodge. Watch out for the Under Claw attack where it emerges from the ground.
- To evade Bugbear's chase attack, dodge in the opposite direction and repeat.
- General Brigan has four shields on his chest that deflect all damage. Use multi-hit skills like Needle Strike to remove them quickly.
- Once Brigan's shields are gone, you can deal direct damage.
- Be aware that Brigan may summon Valkyries to reattach shields or refill his wine; defeat these Valkyries or knock them down before they assist Brigan.
- Most of Brigan's ground attacks are slow and telegraphed by grunts or positional changes.
