Last update: 07 March 2024

One of the last tamable Salutors to find in The Thaumaturge is Krampus, encountered in Port Praga district. Our guide explains how to initiate A Rod for The Hero quest that is connected to this Salutor, when can you catch up with the Flawed person, what unique attacks the boss has in his repertoire and how to successfully defeat and tame the Salutor.

Where is Krampus?

  1. Finding Krampus is more complicated compared to the remaining 8 Salutors, as the quest featuring him is quite well hidden.
  2. Wait until the Port Praga district is fully unlocked (Act 2) and start the side quest A Rod for a Hero there - for a walkthrough for this quest, visit a dedicated page of our guide.
  3. During the course of the side mission, Wiktor will visit a warehouse in Port Praga. This is when Krampus will appear for the first time, and your next task is to search for the Flawed person that the Salutor is chasing.

  1. By conducting an investigation in the warehouse, you'll learn that Edek is the person with the Flaw.
  2. After leaving the warehouse, Wiktor must catch up with Edek, who will appear in the northern part of Port Praga (this is also where you'll confront a group of policemen). No matter the dialogue options you choose, the conversation with Edek will lead to him revealing the Flaw and initiating the boss encounter.

How to defeat Krampus?

3 - The Thaumaturge: How to beat Krampus? - Bosses - The Thaumaturge - game guide
  1. Your task, as usual, is to attack the shadows sent by the boss. Getting rid of them gradually weakens Krampus and depletes his health bar.
  2. Look up what Traits the individual shadows have. This will allow you to take steps toward destroying them - make use of the adequate skills of your Salutors. If a message about insufficient power of a given Dimension appears, use attacks that bypass a given trait (e.g. using Suffering if the trait weakens your regular attacks).
4 - The Thaumaturge: How to beat Krampus? - Bosses - The Thaumaturge - game guide
  1. Krampus uses abilities related to Focus. Fiendish Prank action cast on a Shadow will make the Focus of the enemy cover most of the received damage. This is not a big problem, because Krampus only applies this condition to 1 selected opponent. Attack other shadows in the meantime.
  2. The Devil's Pact attack may be dangerous, as it can deplete Wiktor's Focus. Before the battle begins, try to prepare at least 1 Focus-replenishing skill. Don't let WIktor's Focus drop to zero, as he will start to receive much more damage from enemy attacks.

Rewards for defeating the boss

5 - The Thaumaturge: How to beat Krampus? - Bosses - The Thaumaturge - game guide
  1. After defeating Krampus, return to Rasputin - as usual, you must visit him at the Nadarzynski house in the Powazki district and ask for help in taming the Salutor. After Rasputin's seance, Krampus can be used by Wiktor in battle. Additionally, new Word Dimension abilities will become available.
  2. Finally, you'll receive XP and unlock Demagoguery Flaw (Wiktor's attacks will exhaust the attacked enemy's Focus twofold if he has 9 HP or less).
