Eredin in The Witcher 3

Eredin is the King of the Wild Hunt and the central late-game antagonist pursuing Ciri.

Short answer. Prepare for Eredin as a mobile melee boss: carry strong late-game healing, manage Quen uptime and attack during teleport recoveries rather than trying to outrun every reposition.
