As part of the Bastards of the Night quest in The Thaumaturge, Wiktor must face a story boss - Salutor Lelek. This page of the guide contains a walkthrough which explains where the person with the Flaw associated with Lelek is, the overview of the boss fight and how to weaken Salutor, what are the rewards for defeating the boss and how to permanently tame Salutor with the help of Rasputin.

Where is Lelek?

  1. The confrontation with Lelek is part of the main plot, so you can't miss it. This is 1 of the 4 basic Salutors recruited in the game and the main quest Bastards of the Night is associated with it - its full walkthrough can be found in our guide.
  2. Wiktor and his companion Abaurycy will eventually reach the Lock, Stock, and Barrel Bar. The investigation carried out there will determine that Danis is the person with whom Salutor Lelek is associated. You must offer Danis to play russian roulette. The ghost will reveal itself and attack Wiktor regardless of the firearm you've chosen.

How to defeat Lelek?

2 - The Thaumaturge: How to beat Lelek? - Bosses - The Thaumaturge - game guide
  1. As in all other encounters with the Salutors, Wiktor cannot attack Lelek directly. Instead, you have to fight Shadows sent by him. Defeating them depletes chunks of the boss's health bar.
  2. Choose enemies one by one and hover over the icons next to their health bars. Some shadows may have traits, i.e. various resistances or additional statuses. Use the Saluto recommended by the game itself (Upyr in the above screenshot) to permanently deprive them of a certain train.
  3. You can also look for opportunities to deplete spirits' focus. Depriving them of all their focus points may expose them to strong attacks from Wiktor.

  1. In addition to attacks from the Shadows, expect attacks from Lelek himself - the boss's planned attacks also appear in the action queue at the top of the screen.
  2. Lelek will try to deplete Wiktor's reserve of focus points - expect him to attack at least once each turn. Try to avoid it so as not to lead to a situation where your entire focus is drained and you're exposed to stronger attacks from enemies.
  3. Use skills or upgrades that renew your focus, e.g. Relaxation as shown in the screenshot above, which can renew up to 3 focus points at a time.

Rewards for defeating the boss

5 - The Thaumaturge: How to beat Lelek? - Bosses - The Thaumaturge - game guide
  1. After defeating Lelek, you need to do a follow-up to the main quest Taming Darkness. As part of this mission, Wiktor must meet Rasputin in the Powazki district. After a hypnotic session, he will successfully tame Lelek. Only from this moment on can Lelek participate in battles on Wiktor's side. New Mind Dimension abilities will become available too.
  2. In addition, you will receive XP and unlock the Recklessness flaw (permanently increasing Mind Dimension by 1 point).
