The trick to the Crones is patience. It is a longer fight. Keep your distance as much as possible, and stay moving. The goal is to try to get behind the crones for a strike or two (depending if you're using fast or strong attacks), but get out of there as soon as you can. If Ciri gets hit, back off and don't try to engage again until her HP recovers to about 80% or higher. As long as she's zooming around, they can't hit her. Focus on one (I take down the Brewess first, since she's the biggest and most dangerous) but don't shy away from hitting the others if you can. Even when the fight is coming to a close, don't compromise your strategy. Also, if you are far enough away, and have the three in sight, use a blink attack (holding down the R2) and smash all three - but if you think you're about to get hit while charging, abort. Once you get the hang of using Ciri, she feels overpowered against everything she fights - even on Death March. Here's a video with a good approximation: |
I'll keep those tips in mind. You're probably right, probably just need to get used to ciri, her move set is OP but I fail to remember if some of it is held back at this point in the game. Regardless, I'll soon find out, any weekend now soon I'll start my go for the PS5 Platinum. Reading your comments above and in the other thread got me more hyped than I already was. Cheers.
