Elden Ring: Cliffbottom Catacombs Walkthrough

The Red Wolf of Radagon is an extremely aggressive boss , simultaneously casting several seeking spells as well as utilizing several leaping, bite, and slash attacks to close the gap between you two. This can make for a quick and deadly battle if you aren’t prepared. Consider picking up any extra Golden Seeds or Sacred Tears you still haven’t grabbed in areas you’ve already explored. That extra bit of health from a Flask, or that extra Flask, can make the difference between victory and def


While you are fighting the knights, you can keep Commander Niall at a distance, and he won't pose any significant threat to you (yet). One of the Banished Knights wields dual swords, while the other has a sword and shield. The dual sword knight is far more aggressive and dangerous, so killing him should be your top priority. After the first knight is dead, you can choose to either leave the shield knight alive for a little while or kill him if he's putting too much pressure. You might want to leave the second knight alive for a while because killing both knights results in Commander Niall immediately entering his second ph


Loretta will two-hand her War Sickle and draw it back over her left shoulder , charging up a single big attack. She charges it up longer than you’d think, so be careful not to start dodging too early. This attack can do some hefty damage, so when the attack starts, dodge into it to avoid the damage. It’s a single big swing, with a recognizable wind-up, so if you’re able to dodge, she’ll be vulnerable to your follow-up atta

This side passage has some maneuverability room, so wait here to fight the patrolling Omen. As long as you keep the fight contained to this room, the Omen in the central area won’t notice. As long as you’re taking on these Omen one at a time, you should be ok. Once both Omen are defeated, you’re free to loot the rest of this area. You’ll find one Ghost Glovewort [3], one Grave Glovewort [3], and one Prattling Pate "Wonderful" —a fun callback to Dark Souls and a way to communicate (sort of) with other play


After defeating the Omen, head down the hall he came from, turn right, and you’ll find a ladder across the room. Climb up it, and you’ll enter a room with some bookshelves , glowing candles, and another Omen off to the left side. Defeat the Omen and loot the altar in front of where he was kneeling to acquire the Page Ashes , a pretty powerful Spirit Ash compan

By the time you reach Commander Niall, you should be well-acquainted with both Spirit Ashes and the phantom summoning system. You will definitely want to recruit help for this fight, as this is one of the few bosses in Elden Ring that summons powerful enemy reinforcements. Whether you decide to bring your best Spirit Ashes or summon a friend, make sure you come prepared for a tough fi


In the second phase, the boss is much stronger and has a wider variety of AOE and distance-closing attacks, so you will have to play it by ear and decide if you'll have an easier time with the fight by stalling his second phase. If you leave the knight alive too long and the boss drops below 50% health, he will enter the second phase regardless, and then you will be in some serious trou


While Niall is in his first phase, the fight is pretty straightforward, just dodge his sweeping attacks and try to roll behind him to get in some easy hits. When he enters his second phase, you should start out by staying as far away from him as possible because he will perform a massive AOE attack. Even while you're keeping your distance, prepare to dodge as soon as he's done swinging his banner around because he will leap into the air and try to come crashing down on you with his electrified


Commander Niall can be found atop Castle Sol deep within Mountaintops of the Giants, one of the endgame areas in Elden Ring . He poses quite a threat to lower-level players, but the rewards for defeating him can be very signific


Another move to watch out for, the boss will breathe a blast of fire out ahead of it as it advances on you. If you’re already close, you’ll be able to get behind the boss quickly and get some hits in, but you’ll want to be careful since the boss can turn much more quickly than you’d exp
