"Both horseback bosses have tons of mobility, are brutal up close, and will wreck you with long-ranged magic attacks. Especially if you're trying to escape. Most of the times I've died to one of them I wasn't even trying to fight them, just climb up a cliff. Erdtree Avatar is a little more surprising to me. He's brutal if you're not ready to fight him but pretty predictable and easy to avoid once you've got decent levels and equipment."
"The unsuspecting field boss walks softly but carries a big sword. Many a Nightreign player has encountered him, though "oh yea, I got this," and then after landing their first attack and nearly being one-shotted in response, immediately realized "oh no, I actually don't got this at all." He's become a meme in the community for being the one boss everyone knows to avoid."
Bandai Namco released a ranking of the eight most deadly field bosses in Elden Ring Nightreign. The list ranks Royal Carian Knight first, followed by Draconic Tree Sentinel, Erdtree Avatar, Bell Bearing Hunter, Pot-Troll, Black Blade Kindered, Death Rite Bird, and Ulcerated Tree Spirit. The top two horseback bosses have high mobility, brutal close-range attacks, and long-ranged magic that can kill players even during escapes or while climbing. Erdtree Avatar is lethal to unprepared players but becomes predictable with higher levels and gear. Bell Bearing Hunter inflicts massive counterattacks and has become a community meme for being widely avoided.
