I stumbled upon this pretty early since I was stuck on Margit. Blood is effective since it takes off a percentage of health, otherwise you’ll be hacking away for a very long time.

Use bleeding weapons at the tail to slowly kill it.

Bleed him to death on his tail.

Use bleed to deal massive damage to her incredibly large health pool.

Killer her and did not unlock her dragon ability like the game said I did, must be something else to get them.

I smacked this thing like an idiot with a sword that deals 200 damage for like 20+ minutes. Wish i read the wiki before for the bleed tip :))

Next run I'm grabbing a bleed weapon with no stats to bleed, and wacking this 70,000k rune dragon on it's sleeping tail. Good farm quick level. Just have to get bleed weapon, the horse, then travel to him. wack in back. Easier than dancer ds3 for sure.

This boss is a very effective way to farm runes (~70 000) with repetitive invocation and using bleed damage. Take less than 2min with 3 players.

Is he apart of a quest later on?
