<br>This is probably Loretta’s favorite attack. She summons a number of magic swords to float around her, and they will shoot toward her when you draw near—or when she rides near. Even though she casts this spell so frequently, you can’t afford to ignore it since they can pile on the damage very quickly. Also, partway into the fight, she will buff herself, resulting in her summoning a larger number of swords with this spell. When she casts this spell, your best bet is to bait the swords to seek you out by getting within range. Make them trigger, allowing you to dodge on your terms and free her up for att<br><br> <br>Next, you'll want to equip a solid set of armor that will allow you to absorb some physical damage without dying. Equipping heavy armor such as the Tree Sentinel Armor and Crucible Axe Armor is ideal, but you should always make sure that you maintain a Medium Equipment Load regardless of what you decide to use. Lastly, bring your most upgraded Spirit Ashes or your toughest friend, and you're ready to<br> <br>After navigating the haunting and lengthy Caria Manor , you will come face to face with Royal Knight Loretta, the spirit warrior responsible for the rain of Glintstone Arrows on your initial approach to the manor. Defeating Royal Knight Loretta is necessary to access the Three Sisters sub-region, which is a major requirement in order to achieve one of Elden Ring Rune Farming Ring 's best endi<br> <br>After entering, head to the right. You should see a short staircase and keep in that direction. Head up those stairs and find the Glintstone Craftsman’s Cookbook [6] on a corpse in a room with a robed albinauric enemy. From this room, run along the stonework to the right and up some more stairs. You will encounter two more of these albinaurics and a Somber Smithing Stone [3] along this stone p<br><br> <br>Caria Manor exudes a creepy atmosphere. Regardless of the time of day, the area is dimly lit and bathed in fog. It is also crawling with Fingercreepers , both large and small, so slight arachnophobia warning as you enter the area. You’ll notice several Fingercreepers hanging from tower walls, ready to drop on you when you stray too close. It’s better to pull them one at a time, so bring a ranged weapon along with you. Be careful for their stunning magic —when they shoot out a purple projectile toward you. If it hits, you will be momentarily stunned, long enough for the Fingercreepers to grab you and deal some serious dam<br><br> <br>From here, the path is direct but dangerous. As you ride north up the road to Caria Manor, volleys of Glintstone Arrows will rain down around you. Continue zigging and zagging along the path until you reach Main Caria Manor Gate site of gr<br><br> <br>Another of Loretta’s favorite moves, she will point the butt of her War Sickle toward you as it’s glowing blue, then send a magical volley of several seeking energy blasts. She can sometimes repeat this attack a surprising number of times in a row, so be ready to dodge repeatedly when you see her begin this attack sequence. If you’re already at range, you can get away with sidestepping these projectiles as they seek you out. Early in the fight, she will cast a version of this attack that only sends out a single magical blast, but she seems keener to use the powered-up vers<br><br> <br>Head out and begin navigating the walkways above the courtyard below. These walkways are inhabited by the spirits of Carian Knights and several sorcery traps. As you make your way across the walkways, the path will eventually diverge, with one route heading off to the left and one continuing strai<br><br> <br>When you pass through the fog door and confront the boss, Commander Niall will immediately start summoning two Banished Knights to assist him. If you are using Spirit Ashes for this fight, make sure to summon your helper as soon as you enter the boss arena because the enemies will start attacking you right after they appear. Ideally, you should allow your Spirit Ashes to distract one or both Banished Knights before attacking so that you can begin the fight more smoothly. If you happen to have Bewitching Branches, you can charm the two Banished Knights and have a much easier time fighting the boss, but this is not a necess<br><br> <br>Cliffbottom Catacombs can be found in the southeast portion of Liurnia of the Lakes. From the Liurnia Highway North site of grace, look northeast. You’ll spot one of those strange statues holding a candle. This will point you in the right direction. Interacting with the statue will activate the energy trail pointing south, though it disappears into the ground not too far away. You should spot a path heading south and downw<br><br> <br>While Niall is in his first phase, the fight is pretty straightforward, just dodge his sweeping attacks and try to roll behind him to get in some easy hits. When he enters his second phase, you should start out by staying as far away from him as possible because he will perform a massive AOE attack. Even while you're keeping your distance, prepare to dodge as soon as he's done swinging his banner around because he will leap into the air and try to come crashing down on you with his electrified<br>
