Attacks and weaknesses

Sif is extremely bouncy, fast and powerful. The beast can jump to the hero literally in a second. The wolf will attack you in the following ways:

1) Horizontal swings - horizontal hits which can be blocked with a good shield.

2) Turning attack - Sif hits twice, turning around. Blocking can be problematic.

3) Overhead or below attach - first one is executed where you're far from him and second one - when you're close to the wolf.

4) Charge slash - mighty blow but luckily rarely used.

Tips

1) Get close to the wolf - despite appearances, it is the best method. Once you get between wolf's legs, most of his blows will miss you.

2) Take care about good dodges - in this fight you have to stay close to the opponent or even under him. So try to perform good dodges when you run towards him.

3) Hit his legs - in the second part of the fight the wolf will weaken and his blows become slow. Hold on!

Tactics

In this fight you can't keep enemy on the distance, unless you love that style of fighting. The fight should look like this:

1) Right after entering fog and when the wolf approaches, run straight on him, avoiding his potential blows.

2) Once you get under the wolf, hit his legs and torso. You can use the aiming system or work without it.

Interesting fact: initially there was the rumor, that you can spare Sif's life in the fight. According to legends, a wounded wolf was retreating after time. Unfortunately these reports haven't been confirmed. A pity, because such majestic beast might be saved!
