Said boss is the Valiant Gargoyle.
General tips
Mage build - how to fight?
The boss doesn’t attack you immediately after you enter the arena.
It will be a while before it reaches you.
This lets you safely summon the Banished Knight or use spells such asMagic Glintblade,Carian PhalanxorGreatblade Phalanx.
One it does, dodge its attacks and back away.
Thanks to this it’s very likely it won’t change its target.
This will let you stay safe when casting subsequent spells.
Watch out for two specific attacks which can easily one-hit kill you.
One such attack is when a gargoyle flies up.
Be patient and don’t panic.
Dodge as soon as it starts falling to the ground.
The spell can still hit you if you dodge too early.
You should then move far away from it and castMagic Glintblade.
Because of this attack the ashes of wolves or demi-humans won’t be very useful in this fight.
The poison spreads quickly and deals high damage.
Reaching you will take it some time.
This means it’s important to kill the first boss as quickly as possible.
The second gargoyle’s attack animations are slightly different.
They’re longer, which means you could still get hit when dodging.
The upside is that the second gargoyleoften switches weapons, sometimes using twinblades, sometimes using an axe.
Fighting it is easier when it wields an axe, letting you be more aggressive.
Melee build - how to fight?
It will take a while for the opponent to reach you.
you might also move away from it to a larger distance and lure the enemy into a poison-free area.
Otherwise, you should stay close to the opponent - either behind his back or between his legs.
When you remove half of the gargoyle’s HP, a second one will fly in.
This is a good time to summon the ashes that can take a lot of damage.
You should now separate the enemies to finish the first one off.
Gargoyles shorten the distance very quickly -one jump across the arena will do.

The second gargoyle uses primarily double blades, but also has an axe.
the combos he makes with it often end with a hit against the ground, which causes AoE damage.
The enemy will also attempt to trample you down, then immediately use the axe and jump away.
Be prepared to dodge a lot, but also attack.
The enemy will also make AoE attacks with his double blades, but in a different way.
you might block it with a shield, although it will take a lot of your stamina.
