Valiant Gargoyle

The Valiant Gargoyles guard the Siofra Aqueduct at the edge of Nokron, Eternal City, and with it one of the routes down to the Deeproot Depths. They are winged stone gargoyles, one with a greatsword and one with a twinblade, and they breathe poison.

The first one fights you alone for a while. Then the second drops down from above, and the fight gets much harder.

How to beat it

Draw the first gargoyle toward the entrance of the arena and do as much damage as you can before the second arrives. The second one joins when the first gets low on health.

Their poison breath is hard to see and hurts quickly, so get out of it right away. D, Hunter of the Dead’s brother, D, Beholder of Death, can be summoned here once you have given him the Twinned Set.
