How to Beat Scaly Misbegotten
FromSoftware crammed a boatload of content in the latest Soulslike project giving the player base more than enough to deal with for the past two years.Elden Ringreceived universal praise from the gaming community and critics society alike for its dark themes, intense combat, and expansive lore.
Scaly Misbegotten is an optional boss that can be located at Morne Tunnel and it is not quite as challenging as other optional bosses in the base game. Although it is worth noting that this boss is still a threat and can pack a punch, these are a few ways to get the best of it without much effort.
Once players set foot in the arena, they have to immediately call upon some of their spirit friends to gain the attention of Scaly Misbegotten. The Jellyfish spirit is a good choice to open the battle as players creep behind the boss is vulnerable and more open to ranged attacks. Throw a few fire-related attacks and the health bar will deplete drastically.

Similar to the Mad Pumpkin Head, this boss can get easily distracted. Summon the Jellyfish spirit and Scaly Misbegotten will pretend you were never there and have a short window to melee strike it from behind with a flurry of light and heavy combo attacks or fire away from a safe distance. Either way, both options are viable and the summon will do its part to distract the enemy again.

It is best not to underestimate this enemy despite its obvious weaknesses. Knowing its attacks can help players know when to evade or parry which are common principles in Soulslike games. Scaly Misbegotten only has a handful of attacks that are easily telegraphed and countered.
Armed with a massive axe, Scaly Misbegotten has a swing attack, and the best way to counter it is to dodge him. Rather than keeping your distance, rolling towards the boss can close the gap and reposition you at a spot where it is most vulnerable. This boss is no pushover and intends to protect its weak spot by any means and this is where it uses its tail swipe attack.

Scaly Misbegotten can get cocky when aggressive and uses its head for two attacks. Rolling towards players; however, it is easy to evade and stand out of harm’s way and launch itself in the air to create a small area-of-effect attack. Players can jump over the shockwaves to avoid taking damage.
Elden Ringplayers can approach this battle with a build focused on ranged or melee. For players who want an intimate and tense encounter, melee is the way to go and they should be prepared when to dodge or parry an attack. This method is good practice for future encounters while the ranged approach is a much safer route.
