Defeat Gwen Kraber

Defeat Gwen Kraber is a main story boss quest at Roothold, featuring a skilled spear-wielding warrior whose weapon becomes available to the player after her defeat. Gwen fights with precise, disciplined spear techniques that emphasize range control and punishing overcommitted attacks.

Gwen Kraber rewards patient play — rushing in against her spear range advantage results in punishing counter-thrusts. Instead, bait her combo finishers and parry the final strike, then counter during her recovery. Defeating Gwen drops Gwen's Spear, one of the best early-game unique weapons with a boss-rarity rating.
