Consecrated Snowfield Bosses - Elden Ring Database

This is essentially the same fight as the Death Rite Bird (northeast Mountaintops), with the main difference being the types of magical attacks used. This one can fire balls of magic which will hone in on your location and explode upon impact. They move fairly slowly, but this can be deceptive if you’re not careful. You should aim to dodge or roll out of the way only moments before the ball is about to hit you, and not before.

• The Death Rite Bird (northwest Mountaintops) is located at the frozen pool southeast of the Apostate Derelict Site of Grace, in northwest Mountaintops of the Giants.

This fight is similar to other Erdtree Avatars, and it will use most of the same attacks. The only difference here is that as you bring the boss to around half health, it will split in two and a clone of itself will enter the battle. This means that you’ll need to fight two Erdtree Avatars at once, each with the same amount of health and the same attacks. If you want to live through this fight, you’ll need to become familiar with the attack patterns of the hammer strikes. These are potentially the most deadly, since being hit by just one strike can take a big chunk of your health. There’s also the body slam attacks to look out for, during which the boss will leap in the air and land on the same spot, with a shockwave of damage emanating out. You can actually jump in the air just before the boss lands to avoid this damage, but you’ll need to time it perfectly. The easier method is to simply dodge or roll away. The boss will always glow before it executes this attack, giving you plenty of warning. The foot stomp is another attack that you’ll need to look out for, especially since you’ll have less warning when this one is about to be used. Ultimately, ranged classes will have the easiest time with these bosses, as they can be kited around fairly easily as you inflict damage from afar.

• The Erdtree Avatar (Mountaintops of the Giants) boss is located at the Erdtree south of the Snow Valley Ruins Overlook Site of Grace, in northeast Mountaintops of the Giants.

• All Erdtree Avatars are weak to Fire.
• You have a large area to fight this Erdtree Avatar so it may be useful to use Torrent here.
• The Erdtree Avatar will clone itself once it’s under 50% HP, these both share the same HP pool.

This boss is capable of using lava attacks, melee strikes, tail swipes, and also a sword from its right arm. This gives the boss a lot of versatility in terms of close ranged attacks, but it can also reach you from a distance with its tail swipes and sword attacks. The lava spewed from the boss will be dropped in pools on the ground throughout the fight, so you’ll need to avoid these as you run or ride around the boss. Unlike some other large bosses such as dragons and giants, this one is actually moves fairly quickly. You can kite the boss up and down the river without worrying about it despawning too much, but even if it does despawn, you can go back to where you first encountered it and it should have the same amount of health it left you with. The boss will remain in a crawling stance for the first phase of the fight, but once you’ve brought it down to half health, it will begin standing on its hind legs. This introduces more attacks with the sword, most of which are executed extremely quickly. The sword attacks inflict massive damage, so it’s a good idea to stay behind the boss wherever possible.

Misbegotten Crusader is a variation of the Leonine Misbegotten Boss, wielding the Golden Order Greatsword and is found in Cave of the Forlorn in Mountaintops of the Giants.

This is a similar boss to the one you encounter in Caelid, with the main difference being the type of weapon used. The Golden Order Greatsword allows the boss to use a Golden Order Blessing, which generates a swift shockwave attack around him and ends with the boss casting a rune arc in a wide radius in front of him. You’ll need to dodge or roll away from the initial shockwave, then be ready to roll through the rune arc to avoid its damage. This is easier said than done, so it may take a few attempts to get the timing right. Aside from this special attack, the boss doesn’t have much else up its sleeve. However, it will be relentless with sword and claw attacks, each of which can inflict massive amounts of damage. The boss can also roar which will inflict moderate damage and deplete your stamina significantly, so it’s best to evade this with a dodge or roll rather than a block.

• Misbegotten Crusader can be found at the end of the Cave of the Forlorn in Mountaintops of the Giants. It is located in the ravine south of the minor Erdtree in the Consecrated Snowfield. The entrance is guarded by a Giant Land Octopus.

• Is this an optional boss: yes
• Closest Site of Grace: Cave of the Forlorn
• Is multiplayer allowed for this boss? Yes
• Can you summon Spirit ashes for this boss? Yes

This is another one where the cavalry bosses share the same attacks as others, but this time you’ll be fighting two of them if you’re unlucky, one wielding a flail and the other a glaive. If you’re careful as you approach the carriage, however, you’ll be able to pick off just one of the bosses and fight them alone in the snowfields. You’ll need to be careful to avoid the attention of the other boss and the nearby adds, but even if you bring a few into the fight you shouldn’t have much trouble here.

• The Night’s Cavalry Duo (Mountaintops of the Giants) can be found escorting a carriage southwest of the Inner Consecrated Snowfield Site of Grace, in western Mountaintops of the Giants.

This boss will build the Scarlet Rot debuff with each attack, and it’s also capable of spewing Scarlet Rot from its mouth, directed in a cone shape in front of it. The most deadly attack from this boss occurs if it manages to grab you. A snake will then emerge from the boss and bite your head, instantly inflicting Scarlet Rot and a massive amount of damage. The damage from the attack alone will likely be enough to kill you in one hit if you don’t have much health, but if you do manage to survive the hit you’ll want a Preserving Boluses at the ready to cure the Scarlet Rot. You can parry most of the attacks from the boss, but they will often form part of lengthy combos which can easily eat away at your stamina. A ranged class will find this one easy to kite, but a melee class will need to pay more attention to openings for attack after attack combos.

• The Putrid Grave Warden Duelist is located southeast of the Inner Consecrated Snowfield Site of Grace, at the Consecrated Snowfield Catacombs in western Mountaintops of the Giants.
