How to beat: Cloud Giant
Coat your sword with Ogroid oil and use Igni and Dancing Star bombs to exploit his weakness to fire. He can sink into the clouds and burst out somewhere else for a surprise attack, so dodge often and keep Quen up in case you mistime it. The arena has four cage beacons that lightning occasionally charges, and if his leaping attack hits a charged beacon he is electrocuted and stunned for a long time, leaving him open to strong attacks. He can also be killed instantly with a precise crossbow bolt to the eye, and a Northern Wind bomb that freezes him in place makes that shot much easier.
About
The Cloud Giant lives in a castle in the sky in the Land of a Thousand Fables and is most likely a degenerated illusory being. He was probably meant to be a gentle strongman who carried the duke's young daughters on his shoulders, but as the abandoned land rotted he grew into a dangerous monster. After Jack stole his goose that laid golden eggs, he decided to throw anyone who climbed onto his cloud right off it.
Loot
Possible drops – not every kill yields all of them.
