At first, Dag uses a one-handed axe with a shield in his off hand, with which he can parry the opponent's blows. Despite his massive build, he is quite good at dodging. The opponent has three weak points: left forearm, right arm and left knee. When you hit them, Dag will be stunned. It is possible that as long as Dag is using the shield you will be unable to hit his forearm, but you can do it a little later.
