Some are humanoid creatures, while others are intimidating beasts like colossal dragons and the giants.
Margit, The Fell Omen, is one of the most popular and controversial bosses inElden Ringas he is considered by many to be the first boss that puts up a tough fight.

Meanwhile, some people havekilled Margit inElden Ringwithout taking a single hit, suggesting a wide disparity in skill level.

Nevertheless, mostElden Ringboss fightsare usually very dramatic, particularly with Margit. Reddit user Same-Caterpillar1677 participated in one such nerve-wracking encounter with the famousElden Ringboss. The user shared a video titled “My heart was pumping so fast” that shows an intense boss fight with Margit. The video begins with Same-Caterpillar1677’s player character and Margit facing one another at some distance. Interestingly, both the rivals have nearly zero HP and will fall after a single hit. Margit tries to take advantage of the distance with his spectral throwing knife attack, which the user dodges successfully.
Same-Caterpillar1677 continues to move around the fight area, evading Margit’s attacks in a desperate attempt to stay alive. As soon as they avoid the barrage of hits, Same-Caterpillar1677 takes advantage of the moment and lands a couple of blows, killing Margit. Naturally, the post was well received by theElden Ringcommunity on Reddit, as shown by nearly 8,000 upvotes and hundreds of comments. Most Redditors applauded the original poster for being highly mobile and avoiding oncoming attacks, while others suggested alternative strategies for similar future encounters. Notably, users stressed using ranged weapons like a bow or throwing daggers to inflict damage from a distance and remain relatively safe simultaneously.
As mentioned above, Margit is regarded as the first real boss inElden Ring, and many consider him thebest tutorial boss in a FromSoftware game. As players move northwards from Limgrave to Stormhill, they’ll come across Margit after defeating a string of different enemies. Although he is present in Stormveil Castle, the area only unlocks after defeating him.
Elden Ringis out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
