Bell Bearing Hunter

Bell Bearing Hunter is a recurring Field Boss in Elden Ring. He is a hunter of shopkeepers who only appears at night and features long-distance melee attacks. This is an optional boss as players don't need to defeat it to advance in Elden Ring.

He will appear only at night, so if you don't see him, make sure to rest again at the nearby Site of Grace after passing time to nightfall.

• Bell Bearing Hunter only spawns provided 3 requirements (in this order it will be faster): 1. The player needs to rest at the near site of grace; 2. It must be night; 3. The player needs to trigger the title of the specific location (like "Warmaster's ShackGrace").

  • Players can simply rest at the locations Site of Grace, skip time until night, then exit and re-enter the game to get the boss to spawn.

• Parryable: Yes, but 2 parries are required per stance break

• Is vulnerable to a critical hit after being stance broken or parried

• Damage: Standard, Strike, Pierce, Magic

• See Elemer of the Briar for a full boss guide

• If you can climb on nearby scenery and get above the Bell Bearing Hunter's head, none of his attacks can hit you. Use spells like Night Maiden's Mist that can hit through structures to damage him. Even if it seems like he's going out of range, you can simply wait and he will be back in a moment.

• If you have sufficient health, you can use Lion's Claw to tank his hits as the startup animation has superarmor which means you can't be staggered out of it by most attacks. Hit him enough times to stance break him, perform a critical and then heal while he is getting up. You will still need enough health to tank his hits and enough damage to kill him before you run out of flasks.
