No Rest For The Wicked: How To Beat Warrick the Torn (Boss Fight)
Warrick the Torn is the first boss fight in Despite being your first significant challenge, Warrick is an immense and literal gatekeeper to the next phase. This Risen monstrosity may initially seem daunting, but he is certainly beatable.
