As someone who has soloed *Elden Ring: Nightreign*, here’s a tier list of the bosses, how many attempts it took me to beat them, and how difficult I found each of them:

**8: Gladius (Beat in 2 attempts)** – He is the easiest by far. Even when playing solo, you won’t have much trouble with him. Holy weapons are recommended.

**7: Maris (Beat in 3 attempts)** – Maris is the second easiest, just a bit harder than Gladius. His wide-area explosive attacks and sleep-inducing abilities can be problematic. It’s especially tougher if you don’t have a weapon that deals lightning damage. All of this becomes even more challenging if you’re playing a melee character.

**6: Gnoster (Beat in 3 attempts)** – Gnoster is an annoying fight. You’re not only dealing with a giant scorpion, but also a moth above you casting magic. In their second phase, they merge and gain a few new attacks, some of which are genuinely dangerous. Even though they are weak to fire, I couldn’t notice any significant impact from fire attacks. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

**5: Adel (Beat on 2nd attempt)** – Adel’s difficulty comes from how hard it is to read his attacks. His large body and wide-range strikes make him tougher than the previous bosses on this list. In his second phase, he gains resistance to poison, despite being weak to it initially, which adds to the challenge.

**4: Libra (Beat on 1st attempt)** – Libra is a solid fight. He uses a lot of magic and tries to roll-catch you with his staff. While breaking the seals is easy the first time, the second one becomes unnecessarily hard in solo play. So instead of trying to break the seals, it’s smarter to go for a stance break.

**3: Fulghor (Beat on 3rd attempt)** – Much like Libra, Fulghor has many area attacks, but he’s more mobile, making him a tougher boss in my opinion. His second-phase arm attacks are difficult to read, so you’ll probably take a lot of hits during your first encounter. Using a weapon with lightning damage can make the fight significantly easier.

**2: Caliga (Beat on 3rd attempt)** – I have to say, this is a fantastic boss fight. Frost resistance is crucial against Caliga, as the crystals left on the ground build up frostbite. (Because of that, the Mountaintop event can help a lot.) The numerous area attacks make this boss quite challenging.

**1: Heolstor (Beat on 3rd attempt)** – Where do I even begin? From the music to the attacks, this boss is perfect from start to finish. One of the best final boss fights FromSoftware has ever made. It’s incredibly cinematic, challenging, and fun at the same time.
