Just getting to the Dreaming General can be tough considering how powerful his soldiers in the Lost Battalion are. He's not the kind of boss you can easily grind, so it's important to be ready each time you challenge him. This guide will tell you everything you need to know - the rest is up to you.

Any time the Stagecoach travels through the Tangle, there is a chance to encounter the Dreaming General. His Lair, the General's Keep, can be found in that region. Like any other Lair, you'll need to fight your way through two floors of minions before battling the boss.

You'll be partially healed between floors, but if you aren't confident you can take the General down, you can always retreat before approaching him and try again on a different run.

The General's Keep is guarded by the Lost Battalion, one of the game's toughest enemy groups. They're coordinated, hard-hitting, and can even be revived at full health by a Bishop. Be sure to equip at least one Skill that can clear corpses, such as the Graverobber's Dead of Night or the Leper's Purge while traversing the Tangle. The Highwayman's Highway Robbery skill is also useful for removing the large number of buffs the Battalion uses, and the upgraded version can even steal those buffs and apply them to the Highwayman.

The Lost Battalion - and, importantly, the Dreaming General - are susceptible to Burn. Having the Runaway in your party will make dealing with these
