Romina, Saint of the Bud

Romina, Saint of the Bud is a Legend Boss in Elden Ring. She appears humanoid, though her lower half has inexplicably transformed into a centipede with a scorpion's stinger. After her church was burned during Messmer's crusade, she discovered a twisted divine element and weaved it into the Scarlet Rot, wielding the bud she cradled as a deadly poleblade in combat. She can be found in the Church of the BudGrace, which you can access at the end of your exploration in the Ancient Ruins of RauhRegion. This is not an optional boss, as players need to defeat her to advance in Shadow of the Erdtree.

Romina, Saint of the Bud can be found in Church of the BudGrace. You can get to the Church of the BudGrace by heading to the top floor of the western-most square building in the Rauh Ancient Ruins [Map Link].

From the Rauh Ancient Ruins, WestGrace Site of Grace, go southwest into the building. From the top of the stairs, go roughly straight ahead to the exit to outdoors. Go north across the watery outdoor area. To the north is an entrance to a room with red rot and red Lesser Kindred of Rot enemies. Find the lift on the left wall a short way into the room. If the lift is raised, it will look like a solid stone wall and may be easy to miss. Take the lift up then go up the inside central stairs and you'll emerge at the The Church of the BudGrace.

Alternative Route: from Ancient Ruins, Grand StairwayGrace Site of Grace. Go partly down the stairs to about midway between the site of grace and the Archer Golem. To the north you will see one of several circular shaped gazebos down on a lower landscape level far under the stairs, where there is also is water and 2 yellow armored knights. The gazebo midway between the site of grace and the Golem will allow you to double jump onto it with Torrent from the stairs without any fall damage. The correct jumping point is right near the join between the stairs and a flat section of the stairs path. Double jump from the stairs to the gazebo, and then safely to the ground. Then go north, pass the yellow knights, pass the other gazebo, and go into a red rot-filled interior. In the rot-filled room on the left wall is a block-shaped lift near some red Lesser Kindred of Rot enemies. Take the lift up, then go up the central stairs to get to the Church of the BudGrace.
