Summary
AnElden Ringplayer has revealed an interesting way to defeat one of the game’s hardest bosses, the Draconic Tree Sentinel. Even though the Lands Between features over 230 powerful bosses, the Tarnished only need to defeat 16 of them to complete the main storyline.
Elden Ring’s optional bosses present a formidable challenge, and they are often significantly harder than their mandatory counterparts. These bosses require players to carefully strategize and try out many different tactics on the battlefield, often leading to unconventional methods that surprisingly succeed.
A Reddit user named lottocraze has shared a video demonstrating how to easily defeat the infamousDraconic Tree Sentinel located in the Crumbling Farum Azula, in front ofMaliketh, the Black Blade’s boss arena. There are two Draconic Tree Sentinel bosses in the Lands Between. The first can be encountered in theCapital Outskirtssub-region, the eastern area of the Atlus Plateau. While this boss is mandatory for completing the game’s main storyline, the DTS inCrumbling Farum Azulais optional, leading many players to skip the fight and enter the Beast Clergyman’s boss room instead. The in-game footage revealed by lottocraze shows an easy method to defeat this boss.
Elden Ring Player Shows Easy Trick to Defeat Draconic Tree Sentinel
The Redditor revealed that after attempting to attack the DTS from a distance, the enemy began retaliating with powerful lightning and fire attacks. After resetting at a Site of Grace, lottocraze summonedLatenna the Albinauric Ashes, apowerful Spirit Ash inElden Ring. Latenna’s ranged attacks did not trigger the Draconic Tree Sentinel’s aggro, allowing the player to simply wait for the spirit to finish the job.
It should be noted that the player in the video upgraded their Latenna to level 9, meaning that players whose Spirit Ash is at a lower level might take much longer to defeat this enemy. This unique Spirit acts as a turret, unable to move from the location where she is summoned, making her the perfect spirit totake down the Draconic Tree Sentinelfrom a distance. The only way for Latenna to move is if she is spawned near an enemy Direwolf, which she can use as a mount.
To acquire this Spirit Ash,Elden Ringplayers need to defeatLatenna the Albinauric Ashesas an NPC, located at the end of Lakeside Crystal Cave. Players who have progressed too far through the main story might have missedLatenna’s questline inElden Ring. However, they can still obtain her spirit ashes at the same location without fighting anyone.
