TOP 10 HARDEST BOSSES IN ‘ELDEN RING’ THAT WILL CRUSH YOUR SOUL

 

Embarking on the perilous journey of Elden Ring undoubtedly leads to encounters with formidable adversaries that can shatter even the most seasoned adventurers. From towering monstrosities to cunning foes, the game is teeming with challenges that will push your skills to the limit. In this blog, we delve into the heart of darkness, unveiling the “Top 10 Hardest Bosses in Elden Ring” that will not only test your reflexes but also leave an indelible mark on your soul. Below are the top hardest bosses to overcome in the Elden Ring game:

Astel, Natural Born of the Void

Astel, Natural Born of the Void

I’m pleased the fight against this monster is so exciting, but it would have been terrible to die against a less intriguing boss as many times as I did against this one.

Astel is essentially a Lovecraftian dragon with the ability to unleash a barrage of devastating magical assaults that are as difficult to dodge as they are strong. This is one of those monsters who has unique methods to punish you from afar as well as when you come close, thus there are only a few approaches to this boss battle that will work for everyone.

This is the traditional optional Soulsborne boss that is simply waiting to punish players who become overconfident in their abilities/build.

Godfrey, First Elden Lord, Warrior

Godfrey, First Elden Lord, Warrior

The Elden Throne is located at the foot of the Erdtree, and near the game’s conclusion, the First Elden Lord Godfrey comes to challenge the Tarnished protagonist to a duel. Godfrey the First Elden Lord battles like a glorious demigod, carrying his devoted lion friend on his back while swinging his massive greataxe and causing ripples in the earth. This fight is difficult but not impossible, using well-timed dodges to avoid being thrown to the ground.

Commander Niall

Commander Niall

This boss may not appear to be much at first glance, but believe me when I tell that fighting Commander Niall will be a big hurdle for the great majority of Elden Ring gamers.

It’s amusing that Commander Niall feels the need to summon two extremely strong helpers as soon as this fight begins, considering he’s already tough enough to qualify as one of the game’s most difficult bosses without their assistance. The only thing worse than his naturally strong attack strength and ridiculous defenses is that his difficult-to-time attacks frequently deliver a significant amount of frost and lightning damage. It takes a long time to win this fight, so you’re more prone to make mistakes as the conflict progresses.

I honestly can’t overstate how difficult this struggle is. If you don’t have a lot of health and decent armor, this is likely to be the fight that ruins your character.

Mohg, Lord of Blood

Mohg, Lord of Blood

I’m already hearing some Elden Ring fans arguing that this battle isn’t that difficult and can be “cheesed” rather easy, but let me warn you now that all but a few players will find themselves laughing at the concept that they’re truly supposed to be able to kill this boss.

It turns out that “Bleed” effects are particularly effective in Elden Ring, which is wonderful news for anybody working with a Bleed build and horrible news for anyone attempting to defeat this monster, who can deal out massive amounts of Bleed damage in a variety of ways. This boss has an almost inevitable ability that quickly depletes the majority of your health, and that isn’t even the hardest portion of the battle. There are a few tools you may acquire to help with this boss encounter, but using them is like depending on band-aids to cure a severed leg.

I honestly like how this fight is constructed around such a precise mechanic, but the thought of ever having to face this enemy again makes me nervous.

Margit, the Fell Omen

Margit, the Fell Omen

Margit the Fell Omen, Elden Ring’s first major tale monster, is a terrifying adversary when first confronted. Margit, with her multiple long combos and use of ranged and melee attacks to penalize dodge rolling and panic healing, may soon overpower unprepared and low-level players that merely followed the main route in the game’s early hours. While he may be trivialized by spending hours exploring the open world and acquiring far more powerful gear, fighting Margit too early becomes a major impediment to obtaining the first Great Rune. After the hundredth time hearing him advise you to “put these foolish ambitions to rest” upon death, it may be a good idea to comaback later.

Elden Beast

Elden Beast

The genuine last boss of Elden Ring is surprising. Elden Beast is an enormous arcane monster holding an equally massive sword, as well as a variety of strong ranged attacks that deliver significant Holy damage and frequently target the player. Being such a massive beast, it is fully conceivable to stay as close as possible and hope that the Elden Beast’s sword blows miss, but the monster also has techniques that create large space by swimming around the arena, resulting in a cat-and-mouse game that may be difficult at times.

What truly makes Elden Beast challenging is its placement in the tale, coming immediately after the final battle against Radagon of the Golden Order with no checkpoint in between. This means Radagon must be fought on every single try against the Elden Beast, similar to the end of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and although this allows players to practice Radagon to the point where he does not feature on this list, it also causes irritation. If players could combat Elden Beast without any qualifications, it would most certainly be much easier than it is now.

Maliketh, the Black Blade

Maliketh, the Black Blade

Destined Death is closer than you may realize. What starts off as a simple but tight combat against a Beast Clergyman gradually turns into a horrifying dance with Death itself – Maliketh, the Black Blade. Maliketh, the last monster of Crumbling Farum Azula, is dressed in stunning black and gold armor and wields a huge greatsword that may inflict a debuff on the player, reducing maximum HP with the power of Destined Death. our ability’s sheer terror factor alone is enough to earn it a spot on our list.

Maliketh has a number of deadly melee combinations that are visually stunning but also extremely devastating if caught in the middle of them. He is swift, aggressive, and devastating against even the most experienced player, leaving little possibilities for counterattack unless spirit summons are deployed. Oh, and there’s a Draconic Tree Sentinel right outside the boss arena that must be avoided or slain before the fight can begin, adding to the intimidating nature of the encounter.

Godskin Duo

Godskin Duo

In classic FromSoftware flair, this boss battle seeks to harken back to the glory days of battling the iconic duo Ornstein and Smough in Dark Souls, and the difficulty factor is not lost. Godskin Duo combines two earlier tale boss encounters: the quick and agile Godskin Apostle and the sluggish and intimidating Godskin Noble. The pair may quickly overpower lone players, however calling spirits significantly reduces the challenge by deflecting attention away from the player.

The actual difficulty stems from the fact that destroying both Godskins does not finish the fight; instead, they are resurrected indefinitely until the shared health bar is completely exhausted. This is extremely severe without the use of spirit summons, since it becomes an endurance struggle, and because the fight is required for story development, it may quickly become a point where many players feel trapped.

Starscourge Radahn

Starscourge Radahn

Starscourge Radahn, the ultimate monster of the perilous Caelid area, is a gigantic hulking beast of a general who rules the battlefield while riding his beloved horse friend. Beginning the fight at a great distance from the player, he repeatedly unleashes strong ranged strikes that cause significant damage before switching to a variety of deadly melee combinations at close range.

During this encounter, you can summon a number of NPCs from the floor near the starting location. This includes well-known Elden Ring figures like the lovable ceramic pot Iron Fist Alexander and the half-wolf Blaidd, who may assist attract fire while Radahn unleashes his powerful melee assaults. They seldom endure the whole fight, but they can be the difference between life and death, particularly in phase 2, when Radahn smashes through the sky in a blaze of meteoric fire. This duel combines show and challenge, demanding constant vigilance to escape unexpected death.

Malenia, Blade of Miquella

Malenia, Blade of Miquella

Anyone who has played Elden Ring to the finale will have predicted this. Malenia, Blade of Miquella, and Elphael’s hidden optional battle, Brace of the Haligtree, are almost impossible boss fights that should only be attempted with the game’s most powerful character compositions. Her special ability offers life-steal when she deals damage to players and summons, which, in the worst-case scenario, may replenish her health bar to full capacity in an almost condescending manner.

Malenia can do massive damage with deadly katana slashes, including a stunning multi-hit combination that will demolish any opponent in range and end the fight instantaneously. Furthermore, when players ultimately give the death blow, she transforms into Malenia, Goddess of Rot, recovering full health and learning a new set of techniques that may inflict the horrific Scarlet Rot element. Never, ever misjudge this boss. Using a fully enhanced Mimic Tear spirit summon can alleviate the agony caused by Malenia’s vulnerability to heavy strikes, although this approach is not guaranteed to be successful.

In the relentless realm of Elden Ring, confronting the Top 10 Hardest Bosses is a testament to your resilience as a player. Each battle is an epic struggle that demands mastery, strategy, and unyielding determination. As you face these soul-crushing adversaries, remember that the journey itself is a triumph, and emerging victorious against these formidable foes is a testament to your gaming prowess. May your travels through the Lands Between be both challenging and rewarding, and may you find solace in the knowledge that, in the face of the toughest trials, your spirit remains unbroken.
