One can expect to face Furnace Golem early on in Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. However, it would be unwise to underestimate the challenge it presents. As Elden Ring is known for its difficulty, one should not be discouraged. Remember, Furnace Golem is a boss and there is always a way to overcome it.
Tips for Facing Furnace Golem
In order to defeat Furnace Golem, you will require either Hefty Fire Pots or Hefty Furnace Pots. However, the challenge lies in obtaining the crafting materials for a Hefty Furnace Pot, known as the Furnace Visage, which can only be obtained after defeating a Furnace Golem.
If this is your initial encounter with a Furnace Golem, it is recommended to utilize Hefty Fire Pots and acquire a Hefty Furnace Pot afterwards. Each Hefty Fire Pot will diminish one-fifth of the Furnace Golem’s health.
With a Hefty Furnace Pot in hand, hurl it at the main body of the Furnace Golem to cause significant harm.
How to beat Furnace Golem?
To defeat Furnace Golem, one should remain behind it and call upon a Spirit Ash for assistance. Additionally, utilizing a Hefty Furnace Pot and throwing it into the golem’s basket from a higher location can result in severe damage.
If you stand in front of the Furnace Golem, it will lift you up and toss you into its basket, causing immediate death. Therefore, remain in its blindspot behind the Golem as much as possible.
A crucial element in any battle is the use of a Spirit Ash to buy time and distract the Golem. This tactic is most effective in the initial stages of a fight, providing you with an advantage.
The Furnace Golem has a limited number of attacks to be mindful of. When you are far away, it will release fireballs and flaming jets in your direction. As you get closer, it will leap into the air and descend, causing a series of explosions.
By understanding the timing of its movements, you can easily avoid it. When the Golem stomps its feet on the floor, you must jump to prevent getting hit by the shockwave.
A Furnace Golem may possess leg armor. Therefore, attempt to position yourself on elevated ground and launch an attack from that vantage point. However, if the Golem is not equipped with leg armor, attack from ground level to disrupt its stance. Remember, both legs must be targeted.
