As a dedicated Elden Ring fanatic, I must say that taking on The Fell Omen remains one of the most formidable trials in both the original game and the latest Nightreign expansion. To my surprise, the Nightreign iteration of this boss is even more daunting than the base game’s Margit or King Morgott.

This enhanced version of the Fell Omen boasts increased health and agility compared to its original form. Moreover, it has been fine-tuned to handle multiple targets simultaneously, making it a menacing adversary even in multiplayer sessions. The Fell Omen’s arsenal has also seen significant upgrades, granting it access to new attacks and abilities that add another layer of challenge.

In simpler terms, the Fell Omen in Nightreign’s version of Elden Ring is one of the hardest bosses ever encountered. But if you understand its vulnerabilities and learn to dodge its attacks, you can actually dominate the Fell Omen. Here’s a detailed guide on how to conquer the Fell Omen in Elden Ring Nightreign.

Overview of the Fell Omen (Margit) in Elden Ring Nightreign

In Elden Ring: Nightreign, while Fell Omen isn’t classified as a Nightlord, it shares several characteristics with one. For instance, this boss boasts an enormous health bar, demanding strategic use of elemental damage or Ultimate Arts. Secondly, among non-Nightlord enemies, only the Fell Omen can unpredictably intrude on your Expedition. Defeating the boss grants a substantial amount of Runes and a unique bonus. Structurally, the Fell Omen in Nightreign is similar to its Elden Ring version. Primarily, it inflicts Holy damage, but once its health drops below 75%, it switches to Bleed damage. However, Nightreign’s Fell Omen introduces some fresh move sets compared to the original.

Two fresh attacks, one being a rapid succession of stabbing sprees, capable of striking up to eight times in a row by the boss, and the second is an elongated blood-infused combo, designed to ensnare multiple opponents simultaneously. These attacks are exceptionally dangerous whether you’re close or at medium range. But with appropriate Nightfarer abilities and passive enhancements, you can effortlessly dodge or counter these moves, either by evading or parrying. Moreover, the boss possesses teleportation skills, which it may use to bridge gaps or assault multiple Nightfarers swiftly.

Weaknesses of the Fell Omen (Margit)

In the same vein as Elden Ring’s original version, the Fell Omen is particularly vulnerable to all elemental attacks, with exceptions for Magic and Holy. This boss is also relatively simple to stagger, which is a significant advantage if you’re playing as characters such as Raider, Wylder, or Executor. Our tests revealed that affinities that cause continuous damage, like Poison and Scarlet Rot, are exceptionally effective against the Fell Omen. Moreover, you can significantly reduce the boss’s health bar by inflicting Bleed, but to achieve this, ensure you’re wielding a Nightfarer with Arcane scaling. Lastly, it’s worth noting that the Fell Omen can also take Magic damage, though it’s less potent compared to other affinities.

Tips To Easily Defeat the Fell Omen (Margit)

Here are some tips that should help you easily defeat the Fell Omen:

  • The Fell Omen always starts the battle with a delayed slash attack, which it can follow up with a dagger flurry or a Holy hammer slam attack. The best way to tackle the boss is to stay defensive until he has finished his combos. After that, dish out damage via your character skills or Ultimate Arts.
  • You can dodge most of the boss’s attacks by rolling. However, if you find the dodges unreliable, you can always use a shield to block his combos. If you’re using a ranged character, it’s best to stay at medium range.
  • The ideal composition to take down the Fell Omen is to have at least one tank and one ranged character in the party. You can distract the boss with the tank while other characters deal damage to the boss. Raider, Executor, and Ironeye are one of the best compositions to tackle most bosses in the game.
  • Once Margit’s health drops below 75%, he will transition into his blood blade phase. At the start of this phase, he will always do a full blood blade combo, which can be lethal at close and medium range. However, if you’re using the Guardian, you can use the character’s passive skill to block the entire combo. Otherwise, it’s best to simply run away from the boss by unlocking the camera.
  • It should be noted that in the second phase, the Fell Omen has lower defense and is more susceptible to affinity attacks.
