Geralt The White Wolf Level 13 Vs. Archgriffin Level 48 Death March
Wooh! Geralt The White Wolf did it! I'm betting this is definitely the hardest thing Geralt has done by far I believe.

I'm not too sure, hmm I'm just guessing here but maybe 50 minutes, it might have been more. I wasn't listening to any music during the fight and usually I like to fight hard bosses with music on. I was getting tired of dying, even used the trees to my advantage he still kept doing his bs double attack on me. I was so frustrated at this point.That last portion took about 4 minutes, how long did the whole fight went? Never thought about using the trees to my advantage before. Brilliant and nicely done
After fighting him 9 times I almost killed him twice but then he gets harder when the fight drags on. Breaking Quen almosrt instantly. I came close to killing him with my Light Attack Build but figured out I was using Heavy Attack more in this fight for timing reasons. What I mean by that is if you attack the Archgriffin head on and too quickly he'll block you. Say goodbye to Quen and hello death.
On my tenth try I ended up going back to Novigrad to buy a respec potion for Geralt and after respecing for a Heavy Attack Build I was successful. I probably could have beaten him with my Light Attack Build but it wasn't doing enough damage/half the amount of damage and the Light Attacks usually always hit his block/parry something to avoid if you want to fight him.
Why does the video start with the creatures health nearly gone?
Here's the full playlist, but some scenes are missing because PS4's share button only records 15 min. of gameplay footage: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLa2lieAgfEAUFDaqtzP3Ls-L3pcK8ov-z I don't have the equipment to make a video or knowledge on how to make a full video file recording directly from my PS4. So while I'm fighting I'm also pressing the share button. I was also extremely frustrated at this point because he's killed me nine times before this. I was close to killing him twice out of the nine. My tenth try I finally figured out that heavy attacks are more useful in this fight and slayed him with a build I just came up with.

Also I don't know if everyone wants to see the entire gameplay footage. I did make a playlist for it if anyone wants to see most of the fight. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLa2lieAgfEAVhltmwd2XlJmy7cdw8QJN3
One more thing, you can't mediate during this fight or run away. If you do he gains all of his health back. I tried to see if that would work because I was curious and nope it didn't work. He had all of his health when I came back, I wasted 40 min. bringing his health down to 2/3 left the first time fighting him trying to mediate.

Respec'd for this fight. I'll break down why I chose these skills.
- (Required) Strength Training 5/5. Main attack is heavy. More damage for heavy attacks makes the fight go by a lot quicker. Light attacks do half of the amount of damage heavy attacks do even when upgraded. I used heavy attacks for this fight simple because light attacks where too fast and I'd always hit his wing breaking Quen and exposing myself to unnecessary danger. Where as heavy attacks I can kind of cancel it out by dodging. I use the dodging and heavy attack method a lot during this fight and it works perfectly against his parry / block / counterattack.
- (Required) Resolve 3/5. Helps with damage reduction. It's useful with Undying.
- (Required) Undying 4/5. Undying is the most important skill of all. It's a second wind and it will give Geralt some vitality back when he loses his adrenaline. Just hope he doesn't hit you with bleeding damage. The bleed damage is by far the most dangerous part of this fight other than his bs double attack where he breaks your shield and hits you for direct damage. If you get effected by bleed damage use Quen to cancel it out immediately. Bleed will slowly lower your vitality and if you don't have adequate health Undying will not activate.
- (Required) Cold Blood 1/5. Use this skill mainly for adrenaline gain to keep Geralt alive at a distance, gaining adrenaline will keep Undying active. Fighting him head on at this level is hard, he not only will one hit kill you if you avoid undying but he's also one of the fastest monsters in the game when it comes to attacking. Breaks Quen then pecks at your health. You'll be able to take 2 hits. I've fought a bunch of monsters prior and he's probably the quickest. I could beat him with just these 4 skills alone. These are the mandatory skills that will keep Geralt alive. The others are for additional heavy attack damage and adrenaline gain.

True I could beat him with just 13 ability points, if I really wanted to. I just wanted to speed up the process. You know what I'll do it. It's gonna bother me if I don't. It'll put a hold on my 6th playthrough. Ugh I really wanted to beat the game using just my level 1 armor.As you can see, Geralt's level doesn't mean anything. It's ability points. You put 31 ability points into a level 13 character. Really the title should be 31 ability points Geralt vs Level XY Monster.

I just killed him with the 13 ability points I already recommended for this fight. I'll upload the video for proof. It's pretty long though about an hour and a half. I captured the entire fight it'll be in smaller videos because PS4 share button.As you can see, Geralt's level doesn't mean anything. It's ability points.

how to kill Level 48 Arch Griffin under 20 sec at level 15 Death March **spoiler**
:smiling2:
There is a sticky topic in this forum saying: No spoilers!
You got bad eye's? Or did you ignore it anyway to show off?

Haha Nice. He drowned. Technically you would be level 21 if you include all of the ability points but still you killed him that's what counts.
