Lvl 50 capped, build at end. I was experimenting a bit here to counter his healing potion use. Scarlet rot weapons seem to be pretty deadly. Damage ticks are quite fast. This particular try, I wasnt able to get it going until the end, but Ive had a couple of tries where it ticked after the fourth consecutive hit. Damage in total was quite immense, upwards of 5k damage. Could easily just use another weapon though. The more deadly part of his arsenal is his boomerang magic. Not much to say other than try to avoid it by staying ranged, using the environment as a shield, and going in when there is an opening or at least interrupt him if he tries to do it with beast roar or similar.

Build at end. Skip cutscene to avoid spoiler. Toughest fight so far even though it may not look like it. Unlike some other players, I use jump attacks more than heavy attacks. 2H colossal weapon is too slow to use it exclusively. Also, I find it easier to incorporate into dodge/jump mechanics. So I am using the claw talisman to buff it. Makes the fight go faster. Note all the times you can use the jump attacks cleanly without getting hit. Overall I am strategizing so I can get through 2nd phase fast. 2nd phase isnt necessarily more difficult although it definitely feels like it. The issue is 1st phase kind of throws you off when 2nd phase comes around. Its like a closer coming in the bottom of the 9th and throwing 100mph heat. In 2nd phase, at the start, you want to make it to that inner circle and either jump attack or heavy attack. If youve racked up enough poise damage in the 1st half, you can stagger him and get a nice crit + followup heavy attack. If not, he will usually jump up to the pillar. To keep the attempts consistent, I ran towards him so he always leaps and does his ranged attack. Once he is at a distance he can do a variety of different attacks. I usually run at him to make sure I can get as close to him as possible. But be ready to dodge if he leaps. If he hasnt leaped when you get within jump attack distance, you should be able to jump attack him at least 1x. He cant hit you when you are right next to him. If he leaps back, you will likely miss the 2nd jump attack so be aware of that. Because then it may set you up to get hit. Thats what happened to me here. Got a little ahead of myself and went for the 2nd jump attack too early. I shouldve waited a split second to see what he would do. Generally to avoid the huge blast radius of his AOE heavy attack, you want to run/dodge to get to his backside but this is when you are close. If you are mid distance, you want to dodge away. You can dodge the aoe attack that kicks up dirt, by dodging and jumping after. But I find the timing is difficult to do it consistently. Mixed Physick- Stam + Charged attack buff ( If I could buff jump attacks Id use that. I dont think there is one)

Level 50 capped, build at end. I have another tree sentinel video up. Same strat except using golden land ash to do damage while he is summoning lightning. Couple of notes: - Little bug where if you get him near the top of steps he just starts trotting back. In other attempts he seems to just take the hits. In the video I tried to push him towards there with my weapon art. - Take advantage of the free opening at the start to get in a couple of hits. Can get in a ranged shot when he does lightning summons or starts trotting around when he near the top of steps.

Level 50 capped. Build at end. Dont have the buckler. Only this rickety shield. Works ok. Weighs 1b. Enough for me to slot in. If you dont like to parry just dodge to his side/behind him to take your shot. Staying in front is more difficult without parrying.

Level 50 capped; build at end of video. I tried soloing these guys. Got them down to around 75% but either got rolled over or sniped by the second guy. Its a pain in the ass and was not fun so decided to just use a summons. With a summons its cake, strat is pretty self explanatory. Just load up on damage while the summons tanks.

Level 50 capped build. Build at end of video. Initially, he will shovel snow. Going directly, sideways or towards him doesnt work. You can hide behind one of the mini hills. Can attack him once he gets closer. Then he may do a long range attack on you when you are medium distance away. Just speed towards him and he will miss. Keep attacking the ankle/leg with the bone. Attacking the injured leg will net much higher damage. Just ride to the other leg when he tries to stomp on that leg. Once he summons fire its generally a good idea to get out of there. Staying in is a bit difficult but doable. Second phase, when he leans forward, fire attack will be AOE. Stay away. After it subsides, as long as you stay directly behind him right on his foot you will be fine. Nothing can hurt you. If you stay to his side, you will get rolled over. Overall, use your charged heavy attack to do the most poise damage

Level 50 capped. Build at end. Sloppy, but not a scripted run. Just trying to make it to my next destination. This guy can be a pain especially on that charging move which is a bit tricky to avoid. Make sure to dodge diagonally towards him.

Level 50 capped build. This guy is tricky. Quick attacks and dodge. Timing has to be on point if using these colossal weapons. If using big weapons, make sure to opt for the quick attack options rather than going for heavy attacks. Stick and move

Lvl 50 capped. Shouldn't be too hard. Sloppy win but took like 3 tries to get to know some of his moves

Lvl 50 capped. Build at end of the video. This thing can be brutal. Dodge toward it when possible

Man, who came up with this name?

Level 50 capped build. Without this cheese, fight would be extremely difficult. How can anyone fight in scarlet rot unless you are a maxed character? This fight is made for range given the way the environment is structured. Try to get as far to the edge as possible once you lure it to the entrance side. Then run over to the other end. It gets stuck. Still possible to get hit by breath attack if you arent far enough.

Never want to stay in front of this thing. Cant stagger it. Even with a shield, will likely drain your stam or poison you.

Lvl 50 capped. Build at end of the video. Spazzed out during a dodge and lost my weapon lol. Fight was cleaner on my brutal loss video. https://rumble.com/v10g7rq-elden-ring-loretta-knight-of-the-haligtree-brutal-nogrind-noshield-blind-ru.html Difficult fight if you have a flimsy build like mine. If you have a decent chunk of health, it should be much easier since you can take his sometimes ridiculous two hit counters. Off the bat, free hit or two if he happens to jump closer to you. Dont attack shield side. He has a quick 1-2 chain which is nearly unavoidable on slower builds like mine. Have to stay semi aggressive on this guy and not be too far away, otherwise as a melee build, youll have sparse opportunities to attack and you will be dodging all day. This will drain your concentration into making mistakes. On his magic arrow attacks, RUN sideways from his overhead missles and DODGE the followup attacks whether its melee or a followup missle attack. Dodging the initial missle attacks will lead you to landing right on top of the followup attack= death. On his leap and overhead swing you can easily dodge and then jump into an attack versus doing two consecutive dodges. Sometimes you may get hit on the third chain attack if you dont time if perfectly. But you should be able to take the hit since its not a heavy/special attack. Second phase, you get a free hit when gets to about half health. Take advantage and unload. This phase looks more intimidating but thats it. It just looks more intimidating. The timing to avoid the magic arrow attacks are exactly the same. Just make sure to take into account his brand new 3 chain magic attack, which increases in timing each time.
