Ah yes, time for the boss(es) of 5-3. Garl and Maiden Astraea are not the only danger in this fight. The very environment of 5-3 is dangerous. Plague, plague everywhere. Oh and plague babies,can't forget those.

For the actual boss fight, the difficulty actually depends on your build. This is one of the fights where magic is much more difficult than melee for the first phase. Garl Vinland uses a dark silver shield which means magic does zilch.

So how does a mage combat this? Easy, persistance.. yes if you ram your head against the proverbial wall long enough it'll break.. or you'll get a concussion, either one. Seriously though this was fun in a weird way, improvising on the fly with a build I'd never used.

If you use a great weapon it's cake, simply wait until he swings back up or block, then retaliate. If you use a smaller weapon, then wait, dodge then retaliate. Simple really.

By the way, the way I showed here is only 1 of the 2 ways you can get the fight to end early. Other way is much more difficult for most folks though, what with the ticked off Garl chasing you.
