Recruit Valtr and Tackle The Old Hunters’ First Boss Together
While facing the building where you face The Old Hunters’ first boss, you can turn right to enter a sort of nook in the landscape. If you’ve joined the League prior to coming here, you’ll see as small red pool with tiny messengers in it. Interact with it and you’ll be able to summon none other than Valtr, Master of the League to help you with your encounter.
This changes how you’ll approach the fight slightly. Valtr will aggro Ludwig for the entire fight if you let him, even if it means dying because of it. For that reason, you’ll want to keep an eye on his health throughout the boss battle. Let him do as he pleases (he’s very good at stunning the beast), but when his health hits around halfway, take Ludwig’s attention immediately. This will give Valtr time to heal before jumping back into the fray.
Other than that, stay behind the boss as Ludwig holds his attention from the front. Never stand on the same side as Valter as that can lead to the embarrassment of dying together. Play your cards right and you’ll see this beautiful image grace your screen:
You’ve just defeated the first boss of The Old Hunters expansion. Walk proudly as you collect your rewards and move on to face even bigger threats.
