One notably skilledElden Ringplayer recently managed to land a one-hit kill on Morgott the Omen King by combining several stat buffs and a powerful hammer. Ever since it first launched to near-universal acclaim in early 2022,Elden Ringhas been challenging players thanks to developer FromSoftware’s notoriously brutal combat difficulty and a variety of dangerous bosses that stand between Tarnished and their goal of uniting the titular Elden Rings and becoming the Elden Lord.
One of these punishingElden Ringbosses is Morgott the Omen King, a powerful yet cursed gatekeeper that players have to defeat to advance the game’s plot - and is actually battled twice throughout the game under different personas. While the self-proclaimed “Last of All Kings” is a formidable foe, many players have bested Morgott in creative and clever ways. Onetook down Morgott using only a bow, while another felled the Omen King using onlyElden Ring’s starting gear.

These are impressive feats to be sure, but oneElden Ringplayer may have uncovered the perfect method for defeating Morgott the Omen King in a single blow. Reddit user Whiled7 recently shared an impressive clip of their Tarnished avatar boosting themselves with various spells, potions, and stat-altering effects before challenging Morgott with a massive Giant-Crusher hammer. The resulting battle is a short one, as Whiled7 is able to killElden Ring’s legendary Morgottwith a single crushing strike - much to the praise of other users in the comment section of their subsequent post.
Morgott’s latest defeat comes at an exciting time forElden Ringfans, as FromSoftware has just announced the game’s first batch of DLC earlier this week. Not much is yet known about this newElden Ringexpansion aside from its name, but some players suspect thatShadow of the Erdtreemay be focused on Miquella - an as-of-yet mysterious being who is the twin brother ofnotoriousElden Ringboss Malenia.
A boss battle against Miquella could very well be a part of the upcomingElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtreeexpansion, and with it could come plenty of opportunities for players to show their skills by defeating him in interesting ways. In the meantime, tricks like the ones used to crush Morgott in a single attack continue to capture the imaginations ofElden Ringfans - and demonstrate why FromSoftware’s game was one ofthe biggest games of 2022.
Elden Ringis available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
