This is by far the least consistent way to deal with him, but if needs must, it can work. You could also consider running a Man-At-Arms or Highwayman and abusing his triple activation by using counters. This is a pretty big deal since his health is so middling. Providing you are hitting him, you are dealing maximum damage. Firstly, the Shieldbreaker and Grave Robber have attacks that can pierce his Protections. If you don’t have a team that can inflict Bleed effectively ( maybe you lack the trinkets or even the characters) then there are a few other paths you can take. When he’s really mad, he can apply Bleed and deal a huge amount of Stress damage. He can disrupt your party with Strike The Heretic, he can Mark a hero with Brand The Tainted, and deal moderate damage that scales with Mark and Curse status. If that wasn’t enough, the Fanatic is a truly relentless combatant who will burn through your party (pun intended) quickly.
In essence, he very much resembles the Hag, only fierier. This inflicts a chunk of damage every move, with that damage doubling if the burning character has the Crimson Curse. That’s not all though, the Fanatic starts the fight by removing a party member and throwing them on his pyre with Sentence Rendered. Like all wandering bosses, the Fanatic also shuffles your party at the start of the fight, putting you on the back foot immediately.
This makes preparing for him notably more difficult than a regular boss. Even when you know he is stalking the halls of the dungeon, you never know when he is going to crop up. The Fanatic’s true power lies in being a wandering boss.
