We tell you the best way to kill Loretta, the boss that prevents you from continuing on the path to Malenia, Sword of Miquella. Follow our advice and it will be history.
While we advance in search of the imposing Malenia , there will come a point where a guardian will try to prevent us from passing. This is Loretta, Sentinel of the Hieratic Tree and she is not going to make things easy for you. So in this part of our Elden Ring guide we will tell you everything about it so that you can win the battle without suffering too much.
How to defeat Loretta, Sentinel of the Hieratic Tree
Although the combat is similar to that of other horsemen when you fight melee, this one is very different from the others due to its enormous power when it comes to using magic spells. So the best advice is to use them in your favor to keep your distance and find a good time to attack.
Many times he will take a break and summon swords around him . They will automatically be directed towards you, but don’t be afraid, because although they seem fast, you just have to run to the side and they will never touch you . As the fight progresses, the number of swords will increase, so keep that in mind so you don’t stop running.
Her magic attack of choice is a spectral bow that fires very powerful magic arrows . At first it will only fire once, but when you take about half a life bar off it, it will be 3. It takes a couple of seconds to charge up the shot, so stand still and roll just when you see the arrow come towards you .
His physical attacks are blocked with no problem, but once he’s low on health, they’ll also deal magic damage , which you’ll see as soon as his weapon glows blue. They can be dodged by rolling, but if you’re not sure, run towards the screen to cause it to chase you and throw some punches; when his combo ends, get close and attack a couple of times . Of course, if you get on his back, the horse will probably try to hit you with his legs.
