How to defeat Morgott, King of Omens
It’s not crazy to say that this is one of the most difficult bosses in Elden Ring, considering the moment you arrive. He is tough, he won’t stop attacking and his magic is very powerful . Luckily, he’s also weak to physical hits and leaves a few moments to rest so you can hurt him. We tell you the best strategy to face each phase.
- First phase of combat: his huge sword is the least of your worries. What is really dangerous are the electric weapons that it is capable of summoning in a matter of thousandths of a second. Don’t block them; instead, dodge. He can either throw it from afar or jump up and slam it into you . In both cases you must roll to the side and then attack once or twice and move away from him until you detect what he is going to do. At some point he will also summon a big hammer , and in that case the best thing you can do is forget about attacking and roll “to the screen” to get rid of the area damage. It also causes a shower of daggers; if you see her, stay away and wait patiently for her to finish.
- Second phase of combat: now his sword will be imbued with permanent electricity, but it will also be dyed red to cause you to bleed. Time is against you because blocking attacks will not prevent you from taking damage . To top it off, he will sometimes try to grab you to execute you: if he starts running with a raised hand, run away too . The slow but sure tactic is to stay away, and when he tries to grab you, run away and look for his back to attack. The brave is basically to dodge his rolling swords and attack as soon as you can.
