Description
The Giant Land Octopus is a Wildlife Creature in Elden Ring. These creatures are hostile when approached, and are quite tanky and unpredictable.
Giant Land Octopuses and the smaller Land Octopuses drop Land Octopus Ovaries; this item can be used in crafting several higher tier consumables and utility items.

Land Octopuses take reduced damage to all areas except their beak.
The octopus can be staggered with a single charged heavy attack from a sufficiently heavy weapon (e.g. Pickaxe). They take massive damage from critical hits.
Giant Octopuses are very weak to Hemorrhage, any weapon that can bleed will be very effective.
If damaged significantly, it will eat one of its tentacles to regain health. The tentacles can also be cut off, reducing its range of attack, but it can regenerate them. Beware of the long reach of its forward attacks.
Land Octopuses will sometimes eat one of their tentacles to heal themselves, and staggering them before the end of the animation will prevent the healing.
A similar enemy, the Kraken, is found in the game King's Field, also made by From. A giant Kraken in that game serves as a sort of boss.
