Bloodhound Knight Darriwill is located at Forlorn Hound Evergaol. You can find this location in Stormhill, just explore the area where there is a blue light-emitting from an area, and then interact with it to trigger the boss battle. There will also be a Site of Grace near it, so head there first before going on to tackle the boss, as this will save the game at that checkpoint if you lose.
Upon meeting the Bloodhound Knight Darriwill, it will resemble a mix of part hound part humanoid and will be extremely swift while wielding a curved sword. Besides its extremely high Dexterity, it will also inflict bleed status, which will cause hemorrhage. Here are some ways to take down Bloodhound Knight Darriwill.
- Try to attack before and after it stops its attacks, as this will give you a split-second window to lunge in and inflict some damage.
- The window of attack is made available while the Bloodhound Knight swings its weapon to its back.
- Dodge as much as you can, since it can inflict bleed status, you would want to get as far away from its weapon as possible.
- Always be on the move while trying to get away from it, especially from its weapon as it will inflict bleed damage.
- Using spells will aggravate it, and your best bet would be to use any melee or close-ranged attacks. Taking advantage of your weapon status can also bring the Bloodhound Knight down faster.
