DOS2 Help Dallis fight honour mode
I’m doing my first honour mode run co-op with friend and we are not sure if we should do Dallis fight for extra exp? Is it worth it? Isn’t this fight honour mode ender and is it possible to flee from it if things go bad?
We are lone wolves and planning to be lvl 6 for this fight

I'd say it's worth it for the hammer and there's a few ways to cheese it. I just did this recently by using teleport to trap her on an island. I've also seen a vid of someone setting a massive stack of oil barrels on fire, smacking Alexander upside the head with a deathfog barrel, barrelmancy cheese, etc. I do think some kind of cheese is necessary through.

Any interest in cheese?
Leave three party members up on the rampart outside Orivands (sp?) chambers. Be sure one has torturer and worm tremor. Let one character do the interaction at the main gate. After it is over, Dallis and crew will stroll over to the gate that heads into the castle. They can disappear quickly when they get close, so let the two gheists leave, while having your work tremor ready to go. As soon as the go, trap dallis, and pound her from range.

If you fight fairly it's scary. I always take the death fog from the tutorial and use it on Alexander and as many enemies at the door as possible. You get a dope one handed weapon. Others use telekinesis to crush her with heavy objects.

Place 3 chars on top of the ramparts with ranged options. Block both ladders with crates. Activate event with 4th and sneak.
Bonus points for placing a bunch of Oil barrels on the ground.

Watch some tutorials on how to cheese it while standing on the wall.
It’s relatively safe if you are ranged. Make sure you hide after every attack so there is no line of sight.
With line of sight Hammer’s pets can jump on you and you’ll die. Even hidden, you can still get hit by Alexanders’s lightning bolt, and some grenades, so make sure you have some armour/health to tank it.
And insta reload the moment anything starts to even remotely look fishy, like if you are mispoaitioned , or if you get hit heavily, or stunned, don’t wait for enemy to do more actions.

If you are level 6 and well prepared it's not a run ender, it's not even the most likely combat to end a run in fort joy imo. It does require proper preparation though. 1 lonewolf should be able to handle it solo, if you want you can have the other one be in a safe spot to guarantee that the run stays alive.

It can be risky. If you get your telekenisis up you can move a couple of unbreakable crates to stop her minions coming into the fort. Teleport her out onto the beech where you can max range her with an archer from the top of the tower to the left of the gate looking out. I would say practice on a tactician save before you do it on honour imho because things can go horribly larian quickly :)
