Description
Cleanrot Knights are Field Bosses in Elden Ring. These tall warriors are clad in golden armor with distinct tufts of decorative crimson fur. They wield a thrusting sword, alongside a spear or a scythe and are found as bosses in various locations, often in those with Poison or Rot. They are optional bosses, as players don't need to defeat it in order to advance. However, defeating them yields useful Items and Runes.
The Cleanrot Knights serve Malenia, Blade of Miquella, and fought with her against General Radahn's army during the Shattering. They remain loyal to her despite knowing that they will eventually succumb to the scarlet rot.
Lesser Cleanrot Knight is the normal enemy form of this boss. The spirit of a Cleanrot Knight can be summoned for aid in battle using Cleanrot Knight Finlay Ashes.
