Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree is filled with creepy, grotesque, and downright terrifying creatures, but Metyr, Mother of Fingers is perhaps the most disturbing of them all. This optional Remembrance boss is no joke, but with our guide, you'll be skinning the Mother of Fingers in no time.
Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree – How to Defeat – Metyr, Mother of Fingers BOSS
Metyr, Mother of Fingers is an optional Remembrance boss in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. To unlock the fight against Metyr, you must first complete Count Ymir's quest at Manus Metyr Cathedral in eastern Scadu Altus.
Like all bosses in Shadow of the Erdtree, Metyr deals a lot of damage and can easily kill you in a few hits, especially if you haven't collected many Scadutree Fragments. You unlock Metyr towards the end of the expansion, so take your time to collect as many Fragments as possible. If you're really struggling, you'll need more.
Speaking of protection, you should go into battle with as much defense and health as possible. I highly recommend equipping 60 Vigor with the Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman (found in Elphael, Brace of the Haligtree, in the base game) to reduce your physical damage by 20 percent. Metyr also deals magical damage in her second phase, so equip the Spelldrake Talisman+3 as well. You can get it from Castle Ensis, near the Castle Front Site of Grace. With this combo plus Morgott's Great Rune, I went into battle with over 2600 health.
