How to Beat Circle of the Grasping Root
Focus on the smaller enemies first. It's easy to get overwhelmed when all three attack at once, and they can inflict burn with their melee attacks, so try to avoid getting hit.
When fighting the big toad, wait for its overhead slam, dodge to the side, then deal as much damage as you can while it has its guard down.
Tip: Its double staff swing is fairly easy to parry so be ready to take advantage when it comes.
