More frequently, the beast will vanish when you hit it after one of its standard attacks, and teleports behind you for a sneak attack. Dodge this attack for a great chance to hit back during the beast's recovery.

The beast will rush at you - dodge and give it a smack before immediately dodging away again. The real trick is just to duel conservatively.

This is another fight with no time for proper witcher preparation, so it’s mostly a matter of clever duelling.
