AllElden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC Main Bosses

Divine Beast Dancing Lion is the first boss most players will encounter in the game. He resides in the Belurat, Tower of Settlement and is agreat skill checkfor new DLC players. His move set is very aggressive, forcing the players to always stay on their toes and think quickly, which is the perfect practice for the rest of the bosses in the game.

Even though he appears extremely hard to defeat at the beginning, he is one of the easier bosses in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

Rellana, Twin Moon Knight is among the best boss fights in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, featuring anice blend of challenging difficulty and cinematic brilliance. Her fight is a lot similar to Pontiff Sullivan in Dark Souls 3, better and more challenging in many ways.

Elden Ring lacked a good representation of a Carian Knight boss fight in the base game,with Loretta being the sole boss, so it’s great to see that the DLC did justice to the Carian Knight Lore.

Golden Hippopotamus isone of the worst boss fightsin Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree due to barely any movement space in the boss room and terrible camera angles.

This boss is the gatekeeper of the Shadow Keep and you need to defeat him to progress the main story. He is very aggressive and the small room makes the fight miserable, more so in phase 2.

Messmer the Impaler (or Base Serpent Messmer in phase 2) is the best-designed boss fight in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Messmer is a very challenging boss,but fair at the same time.This boss fight is a pure spectacle.

Although he is easier to defeat than some of the other bosses, the boss fight is highly memorable and easily goes down as one of the best-designed boss fights in the Soulsborne franchise.

Romina, Saint of the Bud is the guardian boss of the Sealing Tree and you need to defeat her toburn the Sealing Treewith Messmer’s Kindling.She uses Scarlet Rot attacks, but not nearly at the level of Malenia from the base game. Romina has a predictable move set and takes a lot of damage, making her one of the easier boss fights in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

Before the final boss fights in Enir-Ilim, players need to defeat all the followers of Miquella in amassive battle royale-type setting. This boss fight can be very challenging due to the large number of opponents, but it is also very well done.

The Followers of Miquella boss fight may lack the flashing big attacks, but it has a human touch that makes it a memorable fight in the DLC.

Promised Consort Radahn is everything you ever wanted in the FromSoftware final boss. He is thehardest boss in the gameby quite a difference, and this boss fight will drive you to the point of despair. Being a massive fan of the Radahn boss fight in the base gamewhile being disappointed that he could be cheesed easily with overpowered builds,itfelt amazing to fight himat his full strength.

Promised Consort Radahn is the most difficult boss fight in the entire Soulsborne franchise, and is truly deserving of the final boss tag.

The optional bosses make the major chunk of content in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. We have found29 optional bossesin the game so far, and a few of them appear multiple times in the game.This list doesn’t follow any specific order.
