Parrying: Because its attacks are quite easy to predict, Parrying is a great way to get in damage consistently. Be particularly careful of its Seismic Wave attack, which hits a wide area but can easily be jumped and (with more difficulty) rolled. Don't be afraid to dodge forward through attacks, as this can put you in better position. Dodge multiple times until its combo is done, then counterattack.

Jumping attacks can be a good counter to their charge attack.Ĭrucible Knight's attacks are slow and easy to predict, but hit very hard when they land.For co-op, Ancient Lightning Spear ( Bolt of Gransax skill) is useful - when fully charged, it makes Crucible Knight flinch.Giant Hunt and Stamp (Upward Cut) can stagger it out of many of its moves.

Other Crucible Knights appear in the Crucible Knight and Misbegotten Warrior, Tanith's Knight, Crucible Knight Ordovis, and Crucible Knight Siluria boss fights. Crucible Knight is a Field Boss in Elden Ring. These heavily-armored warriors take patience and practice to defeat. This is an optional boss as players don't need to defeat it to advance in Elden Ring.
