Elden Ring - How I beat Rennala as Mage (Rock Sling)

[@holdencampos3949]

Bruh I have watched 10 videos on how to beat her been on her for like 10 hours can’t beat her on second phase. She spams spells and the beam of light

Elden Ring bosses can be like that somethimes. I think most players will at one point feel stuck on a boss. Just find a video that is similar to your character, and replicate that. I struggeled with Rennala on my first playthrough as a mage too. The strategy for any character is mostly to learn how to avoid all her spells, and then get in one attack in between her spells. Always keep an eye on your staminia, so you can dodge and run away. You can actually avoid most of her attacks by just running. The hardest part is when she starts to summon monsters, especially the dragon. Then you really just have to avoid everything and pick your openings to attack carefully. If you are a magic user, anything else than Rock Sling will give you a hard time. In this video I am also using meteorite staff, which buffs Rock Sling. Both the Meteorite Staff and Rock Sling can be found close to each other in the swamps in Caelid.

How do you do 600 damage per shot? Mine only does 300

[@williamskrinak3123]

And yes I am using meteorite staff and intelligence is at 25

​ @williamskrinak3123 I dont remember my attributes or gear in this video, but I think everything is just standard. They might have tweaked something in a patch, I don't know. But intelligence at 25 is very low at this point in the game for a mage build, so you may struggle a bit because of that. I recommend around lvl 50-55 for this boss, which should give attributes around Vigor 20, Mind 20, Endurance 10, Intelligence 40; starting with astrologer class. I just did a replay of this game as mage last month, and my fight with Rennala went just like this video (but I did not notice/remember how much damage I had against her).
