Take Out Miranda's Minions First
Avoid Miranda's AoE Spell
Ignore the Poison
Attempt to Stagger Miranda
Fire and Frost Work Very Well

Take Out Miranda's Minions First

There will be a few poisonous flowers in the boss room. Take these enemies out first, as they can be a slight disturbance while fighting Miranda.

Avoid Miranda's AoE Spell

Miranda the Blighted Bloom lifts its flower into the air, then summons magic beams to rain down upon your position. Once you see white stars come out of the ground, simply move out of the way to avoid the rain.

Ignore the Poison

If Miranda starts to close its petals, that means it's preparing to spread poison. There is no need to fear the poison as it drains your HP very slowly. Focus on dealing damage to Miranda. Once you defeat the boss, you can exit the dungeon and rest at a Site of Grace to cure the poison.

Attempt to Stagger Miranda

With enough strong attacks or jumping strong attacks, Miranda can be staggered for a critical hit. Once Miranda's flower collapses to the ground, run to the flower's topside and perform a critical hit on the glowing area.

Be wary of Miranda's smashing attack. You will know this attack is about to happen if Miranda tilts its head without closing its petals.

Fire and Frost Work Very Well

Equip fire weapons or frost weapons to deal more damage. Fire-based and Frost-inducing Sorceries like Glintstone Icecrag and Incantations like Catch Flame, Flame Sling, and O, Flame! will all help greatly.
