Where is Ivan Konechkin?

1. Iwan Konechkin is a character who appears in multiple instances thoroughout the game, although initial meetings do not lead to any fights.
2. The confrontation with Ivan will take place after starting The Last Days of Summer main quest - this is one of the final quests after passing the so-called point of no return.
3. After going down to the ground floor of the Szulski Family Tenement House, talk to Ligia. After the conversation, Ivan and his guards will appear, with plans to arrest the protagonist. No matter the dialogue options you choose, this meeting will end in a battle against the Ochranka agent and his men.

How to defeat Ivan?

1. You are not alone in this fight - Abaurycy will join the battle, becoming a temporary ally of Wiktor. It is worth to observe what he does - who is he planning to attack and by which opponent he is being targeted by.
2. There are a total of 3 enemies to defeat, with Ivan Konechkin being the strongest of them. He has 60 health points and an additional Recovery trait that replenishes a portion of his health every turn. You can remove the trait only if your Word Dimension is developed to at least 6 points.

1. Start the battle by targeting both aides. Attack them one by one. They receive new Traits every turn. If your Dimensions are levelled enough, you can remove them at first opportunity. Otherwise, highlight opponents before every attack to learn their current Traits.
2. If your Dimensions are not developed enough to remove Ivan's traits, rely on slow strong attacks that can take at least 20-30 health points per attack. The point is to make Ivan lose more HP in each turn than he can replenish thanks to the Trait. You can also rely on abilities that delay the boss's turns. This will make Ivan have less actions, resulting in less health replenished.
3. When it comes to attacks, Ivan's each hit deals on average several points of damage. To avoid dying, use good healing skills from your Salutors.

End of the fight

1. You will not receive any special reward for defeating Ivan Koniechkin. But you can decide on his further fate. If Wiktor's Pride is high enough, the hero can make the decision to shoot Ivan.
