Elden Ring - Margit, The Fell Omen Boss Fight & Location

Elden Ring Margit, The Fell Omen Boss Fight & Location.

Location: Limgrave - Castleward Tunnel

Difficulty: 7/10

Strategy: Margit has a wide array of moves. He can throw daggers when you are far from him (he likes to do that when you use a flask), his melee attacks have a very far reach, and his yellow hammer attack deals massive AOE damage and can one-hit you. Before heading into this fight, if you play solo/offline, summon the sorcerer in front of the boss door. Margit will focus mostly on this NPC character, who will help you out. Let him focus on the NPC helper while you attack from behind (you do much more damage from behind). The helper NPC will likely die when Margit is at about 50% health. Up until then things are relatively manageable. When Margit starts focusing on you, run backwards and away from him (hold :circle: ). Let him miss his attacks, just run to the other end of the area. After he misses you can get some hits in. You will have an easier time with Astrologer starting class because you can keep shooting Glintstone Pebble spells at him from afar and avoid the up-close combat (it helps to allocate 4 flasks to mana and just 2 to health so you don't run out of mana, and put some skill points in FP & Intelligence for more mana and more damage). As usual with Souls games, the first big boss is usually among the hardest because you are underleveled. Make sure you upgrade your weapon at the smithing table in Church of Elleh (fast travel point) and grind to level 25+ if you're having trouble. The more level-ups you grind, the easier it will get. If you are playing a melee build and are having too much trouble, try out other starting classes and rushing to this boss again to see what class/playstyle works best for you, whatever lets you take down most of his health, then spend some time leveling up until you can brute force this fight.

Reward: Talisman Pouch, 6000 Runes

There’s a very easy way to beat this boss. Go inside murkwater cave and fight but don’t kill a certain boss inside. He will sell you a shackle that locks this boss down for a few seconds so you can dish out major damage.

I defeated him, but he killed me with his last hit, I never got the achievement but he's dead and no longers appear in the area. I guess I'll have to wait until New Game + to get the achievement.

Powerpyx the true guiding Moonlight .

Also inb4 Fanboys storm the comments with "But you used a summon/You got hit exactly 2.3 times/You didn't do it with your eyes closed and your hands behind your back"

The boss will literally hit me no matter how many times I roll back. This game's an absolute fail, probably the worst Fromshitware game of all time.
