General tips

  1. In the case of Erdtree Avatars found in open locations, you can use Torrent. This does not apply to dungeon Avatars.

  3. You can use Ashes and allies in this fight.
  4. If the enemy took a lot of your HP, don't be afraid to simply back away to regenerate it, as when disengaged, the boss doesn't regenerate his health instantly.

Melee build - how to fight?

The Erdtree Avatar is a large, headless opponent armed with a huge staff. He appears in various locations of the world. Most of the time, they guard Minor Erdtrees, so when you see such an object, it means that the enemy is nearby. This battle is completely optional, but defeating them is worth it, as they leave a lot of interesting materials. The different instances do not differ much from each other, so we supplied universal tactics that apply to all of them.

Erdtree Avatars are best dealt with while on horseback. As a result, have a supply of Rowa Rasins in order to be able to heal Torrent. Set a hotkey for this item and use it if necessary. Before the battle starts, learn the layout of the arena, so you're not get blocked on a obstacle. Your biggest concern during horseback combat is the large range of the boss's staff swing. The rest of the boss's attacks are not that dangerous, or are easy to avoid by dashing.

The different instances of this fight play out the same way - Elden Ring: How to beat Erdtree Avatar? - Weeping Peninsula - Elden Ring Guide

The different instances of this fight play out the same way. However, there are two exceptions - Erdtree Avatar from Mountaintops of the Giants and the one from Caelid. The Mountaintops one has a unique ability to create his own clone . The summoned clone shares the health bar with the boss, so it doesn't matter which target you'll choose. You only need to watch out for two attackers instead of one. Best way of dealing with this situation is to get the attention of one of them and kite him away from the other one. If you manage to kite one of the opponents far enough, the second one will disengage and return to his initial position.

Now for the Caelid Avatar - Elden Ring: How to beat Erdtree Avatar? - Weeping Peninsula - Elden Ring Guide

Now for the Caelid Avatar. This one has the ability to apply scarlet rot status . Watch out for it and keep your distance to avoid serious damage - the attack is telegraphed by the opponent stomping the ground and inducing a brown cloud.
