by Ok, so I bring you the Elden Ring Black Knives Assassin guide , which for now has been the easiest boss in the entire game (Future Silver: Now it is Adan ) and therefore I don’t think it’s a guide that many people are going to consult… but anyway, I want to make the guide of each and every one of the bosses of the game, so here it is.
More than a boss it seems like a joke, in fact it’s so easy that I thought there would be some kind of trick and that killing him would kill him, or another one would come out… or something, but no, it’s an exaggeratedly easy boss, nothing more.
The case, I bring you the guide; the dungeon as such is more difficult than the boss itself and also keep an eye on it because we will get a pretty good and mythical weapon from the souls saga (which already carries one of the series classes, but it may not be your class and you want to have it). Hey, to the mess.
LOCATION: CATACOMBS OF DOOM
I have marked the area where the Assassin of the Black Knives is located on the map, where the peephole is placed; It’s called the Catacombs of Death . To get there we must arrive from the area to its left and from there jump down, from there we will find it easily.
It must be said that the Catacombs of Death are quite complicated, it is full of skeletons, which, as you well know, come back to life when some time has passed since their death and therefore they bother their own business. We will have to look for a lever that is in the area to unlock the big door in front of the bonfire, which is the boss’s.
So that the skeletons do not revive you have to hit them when they are going to revive, but with holy damage, only then will they really die. If you have the Ash of War from «Holy Blade» (or any that applies the Holy affinity) it would be the key, with it you can add holy damage to your weapon, which for this occasion, regardless of your build, will come in handy.
In the area, not very hidden, it will be enough for you to investigate well, we will find the mythical Uchigatana , a very good weapon for Dexterity or Quality Builds.
BLACK KNIVES ASSASSIN ATTACKS AND STRATEGY
As I already told you, it is an extremely simple boss. In fact… he’s so weird that he even starts off with almost half his health down already, which is pretty weird if I may say so, I wonder what’s going to happen to him.
The boss is quite fast and such but he doesn’t do too much damage, his attacks are quite predictable and on top of that we will take off a lot of damage with our blows… so… I wouldn’t know how to tell you a strategy either, I’m sure you’ll just kill him on the first applying the usual: dodge well, attack when it’s time, block… you know.
It seems quite suspicious to me, I wonder if this boss will appear in another area later, but in its truly powerful version, it would be cool.
REWARDS
By defeating him we will obtain the following:
- Assassin’s Crimson Dagger : A Talisman that will make our critical hits heal us some HP.
