Elden Ring Nightreign DLC Balancers Boss Guide
Balancers, also known as Weapon-Bequeathed Harmonia, is a Nightlord boss in Elden Ring Nightreign: The Forsaken Hollows DLC. Learn how to unlock and defeat Balancers, as well as best combat tips and weaknesses for Balancers.

How to Unlock Balancers

Unlock 2 New DLC Nightfarers and Defeat 2 Nightlords

Balancers Boss Unlock

To unlock the Balancers, you must first unlock the Scholar and Undertaker by heading to the chapel that opens behind the Small Jar Merchant. After that, you must then defeat defeat two Nightlords, which includes Tricephalos and one other boss.

Once you meet the conditions, return to the chapel to receive your second ray of light. From there, you’ll be able to take on The Great Hollows Shifting Earth event, as well as the Balancers’ boss expedition.

Balancers Weakness

Weak to Sleep

The Balancers are weak to Sleep damage. Overwhelming them with Sleep attacks will put them to sleep, leaving them open to inflict critical damage and land additional hits.

Make sure to look for Sleep-powered weapons, and stock up on Sleep Pot to help you in your fight against the boss.

Recommended Level for Balancers

Recommended Level Level 14

We recommend fighting Balancers at Level 14 for a standard difficulty experience. If you wish for a greater challenge, you may fight this boss at lower levels.

Use the Scholar's Ultimate to Damage All Balancers

Scholar

The Scholar is a must-have Nightfarer for this boss fight since his ultimate skill, Communion, links multiple enemies and cause them to share damage.

His character skill, Analyze, can also apply debuffs to enemies and grant buffs to allies. Just be careful, as analyzing leaves you vulnerable to attacks!

How to Play Scholar

Split Up the Balancers

Balancers Split Up

The Balancers are seven valkyries in white armor, which is a lot to deal with at once. If you're in a squad, split up to spread them out and avoid getting mobbed.

In the first phase, you’ll fight all seven in their normal forms. They mainly use melee and AoE attacks, and their moves are easily telegraphed. Pay attention for the glint on their spears or when they wind up their weapons to know when an attack is coming.

Focus on the Balancer with Pink Wings in Phases 2 and 3

Balancers Pink Wings

After you defeat the seven Balancers in the first phase, they revive with one of them having pink wings this time. This special Balancer hits harder, has additional moves, and can even target a Nightfarer to draw aggro.

Focus on taking down the pink-winged Balancer first. The other six Balancers keep their original movesets, except when they perform a synchronized AoE attack with the special Balancer. This is telegraphed when the special Balancer flies into the air and the rest disappear.
