Line 63: Line 87:
Beyond killing him through a cutscene, it is best to take this monster hunter by surprise. Since he relies on ranged attacks, keeping him constantly [[Threatened (Condition)|Threatened]] will lower his attacks' chances to hit; though at lower levels he will likely land attacks anyway. If [[Astarion]] is in the party, Gandrel will focus attacks on him above everyone else, making Astarion a guaranteed distraction. Although a formidable foe, [[Ensnared (Condition)|Ensnaring]] him, or knocking him [[Prone (Condition)|Prone]] are effective ways to limit his mobility and keep him in melee range. Buying up all his arrows and potions beforehand, will prevent him from using them against you.
