Ranged Strategy

Omenkiller Boss Tips
Check IconSummon tanky Spirit Ashes
Check IconStay on Torrent

Summon tanky Spirit Ashes

While Omenkiller's attacks are slow, he will deal heavy damage. He's also a very aggressive boss and will always be looking to get close to you, so summon a tanky Spirit Ash such as the Jellyfish or the Greatshield Soldier Ashes to distract him.

Stay on Torrent

Since the boss area is open, you can ride Torrent to easily avoid his attacks and keep your distance. Use spells like Glintstone Pebble to attack even while moving.

Melee Strategy

Omenkiller Boss Tips
Check IconUse your weapon's heavy attack to stagger him
Check IconCoat your weapon in Magic Grease

Use your weapon's heavy attack to stagger him

You can easily stagger Omenkiller due to his low poise. Using your heavy attack will interrupt his animations and you'll be able to stunlock him.

Coat your weapon in Magic Grease

Since Omenkiller's weak to magic, you can coat your melee weapon in Magic Grease to deal additional damage.

Omenkiller Attack Patterns

Sword Attacks

Sword Attack Variations
Sword Combo - Omenkiller - Elden Ring
Sword Combo: Omenkiller slams his greatsword to the ground, then swipes at you twice. You can block these attacks with a shield, or dodge into them.
Triple Overhead Slam - Omenkiller - Elden Ring
Triple Overhead Slam: Omenkiller raises his greatswords and slams them down thrice. Dodge away thrice to avoid these. He'll have a brief recovery animation after, allowing you to attack him a few times.

Fire Breathing

Fire Breathing Attack Information
Fire Breathing - Omenkiller - Elden Ring
Fire Breathing: Omenkiller breathes fire at the area in front of him. This is telegraphed by a quick gust of fire in his mouth. Dodge or run to the side to avoid this.
