Additionally, it comes with a unique skill called Moore's Charge, similar to Shield Crash but with one key difference: while it doesn't deal damage directly, it creates an AoE splash at the end of the charge that can knock down multiple enemies. The tradeoff for its high stats against physical, Fire, and Magic damage is its considerable weight of 28.0 (second only to the Fingerprint Stone Shield) and a staggering Strength requirement of 49, the highest in the game.

These storyline ( and optional in some cases ) big bads will test players' skills and reward them by dropping Great Runes, specialized items that can then be activated to use alongside Rune Arcs for a powerful boost to a variety of things.


Icon Shield : Just scraping in alongside the most disappointing Greatshields out there, the Icon Shield only has 95% physical damage negation, but its passive ability does slowly regenerate the user's health (3 HP per sec, non-upgradable), potentially making it worth the trade-off in most situations.

The first two are actually projections of Morgott (going under the guise of Margit the Fell), and do not drop his Great Rune. The real Morgott the Omen King can only be found at the end of the Leyndell, Royal Capital legacy dungeon.

As opposed to traditional, arena-based bosses, overworld encounters are characterized by the fact that players can get away from them at any moment, or stretch out the fight area by having the enemies chase them. This cheesing tactic applies to nearly every overworld boss, including the already-mentioned Commander O'Neil or Draconic Tree Sentinel (Capital Outskirts) , or even the Divine Beast Dancing Lion in the Shadow of the Erdtree D


Fire Knight's Shortsword : One of the best Elden Ring daggers added in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is this Fire damage-infused dagger.
