I feel like a noob, but..
I can't beat that dude in the temple of trials (?) with unarmed.
I made a new character with increased strength, and it's still a no go.
:sadvaultboy:
Are you using the healing powder you collected earlier in the temple?
Have you fully healed before taking him on?
Have you tagged Unarmed?
Have you instead tried tagging speech and talking your way out of it?
