Root Dungeon Base Level

Prepare for the transformation

Just above 60% health, land a powerful charged thrust to maximise damage before the phase change. Bolt is useful.

Circle through the garden

Lure the small creatures to the end of a walkway, then jump into the garden. They take the long way around, leaving you time against the boss.

• Chalices do not follow the NG cycle. Root base values must be multiplied according to depth, layer and rites; they do not describe a specific fight.
• Solo HP and echoes without runes. The displayed defenses are for NG; their NG+ scaling is not quantified here.
• A defense is a calculation value, not a damage reduction percentage. A Poison resistance of 999 does not imply immunity.
