How to Beat Morgott, the Omen King

Learn how to defeat Morgott, the Omen King in Elden Ring. This guide covers his attacks, phases, and strategies for Leyndell, Royal Capital.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Runes: 120,000
• Drops: The Remembrance of the Omen King; Morgott’s Great Rune

Phases:

1. Phase 1: Morgott uses his standard sword attacks, conjured throwing blades, spear, hammer, tail swing, and can initiate a rain of daggers.
2. Phase 2 (Starts at ~50% HP): Morgott gains additional attacks including a large fiery explosion around him, fire pools on the ground, and can imbue his weapon with fire, creating fiery areas of impact.

Strategy:

• Morgott is more agile than Margit, requiring constant movement and well-timed dodges for both melee and ranged players.
• Conjured Throwing Blades: Dodge or run closer to cancel the second throw. Ranged players need to be more cautious.
• Conjured Spear: Dodge the charge and attack his back for openings.
• Conjured Hammer: Be prepared for its brutal impact, which can knock you down.
• Tail Swing: Avoid staying behind Morgott for too long; constant movement is key.
• It’s Raining Daggers!: This attack, more common in phase 2, limits movement but does less damage. Navigate around the affected areas.
• Second Phase Explosion: Back away immediately when Morgott hits 50% health to avoid the initial fiery explosion and subsequent fire pools. Use this time to summon or prepare.
• Fire Pools: Avoid standing in the spawned fire pools as they inflict damage.
• Fiery Weapon: Be aware that his attacks now have a fiery area of effect.
• Do not treat this fight as just another Margit fight; Morgott is significantly harder and requires a different approach to avoid frustration.
