How To Beat Black Knight Edredd in Elden Ring
The fight against Black Knight Edredd typically starts with the enemy using his signature move Crucible Wings to jump in the air, spin, and launch at your location. This move can be avoided by rolling forward and there is an opening to punish right after he lands.
Outside of this special move, most of Edreddās kit is close range. Most of the moves he uses can be rolled through, however, his spearing attack should be rolled to the side. He also has a jumping attack that you can see coming. If he leaps in the air, be ready to roll.
After his combinations there are large windows to deal damage, make sure you take advantage of these. One of the biggest openings comes after his jumping attacks, so this is a good time to get a powerful charged R2 or weapon art attack in.
Thatās all you should expect to see in this fight, it is quite simple. Sometimes Black Knight Edredd will put moves in combination, so be careful of melee attacks coming immediately after Crucible Wings, however, if you stay vigilant you should be able to see them coming and roll out of the way.
If you want to make things even easier then you can always summon your Mimic Tear. With this summon active you should have no issues at all taking down the boss as they can draw agro while you get behind and deal damage. Truthfully, you probably wonāt need the help for this fight.
