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 multiple locations. This is an optional boss, as players don't need to defeat it in order to advance in Elden Ring. However, doing so 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.
The Cleanrot Knights vowed to fight alongside Malenia, despite the inevitable, if gradual, putrefaction of their flesh. Their acceptance of their fate made these battles fiercest of all.

Negations (or Absorptions)
The negation numbers are the % of your damage that gets blocked. For example, if a negation is 60, 40% of that damage by that type will go through and 60% will be negated. Bigger number = less damage. A negation of 100 means no damage goes through, and a negation of -100 mean the enemy takes 2x damage from that source. 0 means damage goes pretty much as is.
Elden Ring Cleanrot Knight Boss Guide
Cleanrot Knight Fight Strategy
The Best Tips for Cleanrot Knight:
- Don't just keep attacking over and over—once it uses Spear Guard, back off or it'll counter-attack.
- Use Fire Pots. It's very weak to fire and has low health to begin with, so a single pot will do a lot of damage even at low levels
- Long windups and attack animations leave it very vulnerable to backstabs
Melee Users
Baiting: Stay close and towards its left to tempt it into using Spear Stab, Impale, or Sacred Phalanx. When it starts winding up one of these slow attacks, circle around behind it and get a backstab critical.
Magic and Ranged Users
Waiting Game: Don't underestimate the Cleanrot Knight's range. It may not have any ranged attacks, but Rushdown is very good at closing distance and Impale will do a lot of damage if it connects. If your spells take a while to cast, either make sure you're across the arena or it's distracted by your summons.

Spear Stab | ![]() |
Roll to either side as you see its spear pass its head. If you have a quick weapon, you can get in a hit while it winds up |
Twin Stab | ![]() |

Golden Shove | Crosses its spear and sword if they aren't already. They glow with golden light as it shoves them forward | Roll away when you see it cross its sword and spear |
Sacred Phalanx | Lets its spear fall down behind it to its left, then drags it forward, leaving a golden glow on the ground that erupts into holy spears in a straight line. | Roll around it clockwise, as its right flank is unprotected during this attack. Make sure to avoid the golden glow on the ground |
Retreating Phalanx | Extends its spear forward and to its right, then drags it counterclockwise behind it while it steps backwards, leaving a golden glow on the ground that erupts into holy spears | Keep back and avoid the golden glow on the ground, then close back in once the holy spears have vanished |

Additional Fight Strategy
- Focus on the Sickle-wielder once it rises from the rot pool, to prevent it from using Haligtree Blessing or harassing you with Miquella's Ring of Light
Additional Attacks & Counters
Attack | Description | Counter |
Sickle Variant | ||
---|---|---|
Sickle Swing | ![]() |
Roll into the swing |
Haligtree Blessing | Twirls its sickle like a baton in front of it then thumps it on the ground, giving both Cleanrot Knights a 30-second buff that heals them by 7 HP per second and reduces Fire damage by 40% | Keep attacking to try to stagger it out of using the buff or, failing that, keep it from recasting once it wears off |
Rotten Vomit | Pulls its left shoulder back then vomits a gout of scarlet rot in forward | Roll to either side once you see it pull back its shoulder |
Miquella's Ring of Light | ![]() |
Dodge forward through the ring or to either side to avoid it |

Not sure if anyone has pointed this out yet but the buff that sickle variants can buff invaders, it's a 40 sec 7 HP regen for free so might be a little worth it staying close to the sickle variants in invasions.

Why is the spear grab's rot buildup infinite, and not just absurdly high... BTW the only other attack with infinite status buildup is mohg's nihil
What does the buff do that the scythe Knight does? Sometimes, as regular enemies, itll spin around its Scythe and then they start glowing. Why tho? What does it do?

You've got to admire the resilience of the Tarnished, they can take a plate armored valkyrie knight charging into them and impaling them on a spear before stabbing them in the face with a scarlet rot covered rapier and yeeting them like a wet towel yet they can just get casually get back up from that as if it was nothing more than a little flesh wound (unless they haven't leveled Vigor enough ofc).

Not very hard since they stunlock pretty easily if you focus them down and aren't too tanky, but can be very annoying if you give them even a second of breathing room partially due to that lunging instant scarlet rot proc grab that the spear wielding ones like to perform on you.

best knight enemy in the series imo, managable health pool and aggressive moveset which still leaves openings, no Havel Poise, and they don't hide behind greatshields. Actually fun to fight when not parrying unlike most older knight enemies

Cleanrot spear ONLY DROPS FROM THE CLEANROT KNIGHTS THAT EMERGE FROM THE GROUND AND ARE HOLDING THE SPEAR! Simply go to Aeonia Swamp Shore grace and head SW past the mushrooms. There should be one that spawns a couple islands down on the north side of the island. Kill him and then head north east and look around that area, there are about 7 or 8 that spawn and they are likely marked by players messages.

If you're farming their gear, I recommend right next to the heart of aeonia grace, they seem to have better drop rates for me there, there are plenty, and you can take them on one by one.

I just noticed something about them today, they are all left-handed it seems. Their backup sword is in their right hand while their main weapon is in the left, which is kind of neat. Could be because Malenia would have been left-handed before she got a prosthetic arm and they miniced this. The only problem with this is that my roleplay as a cleanrot knight will require me to left hand the main weapons, so I cannot use their weapon arts without two handing them and the sword cannot use the 'no skill' weapon art, while also the shield on the spear is pointing the wrong way -.-

If you want to farm these guys early do the dragon burnt ruins teleport. You can summon Pollyanna from the Commander O'Neill bossfight arena and help you farm. She can also beat Millicent when she invades to punish you for being in the swamp too early like the naughty player you are.

These guys really hate fire. Black flame spells are particularly vicious against them since the % based damage seems to get 20% extra dmg as well. Like 4 black fireballs with a +13 godslayer seal and 28 faith was all each one took to kill.
Their movesets are very easy except for a very annoying golden disc spell from the second one. Gotta roll towards it to get through, panic rolling away or sideways will get you caught every time.

This guy as a boss isn't exactly difficult by any means, but if you don't have good access to fire and can't be bother to fight him (because the arena sucks), just use Warhawk's ash. The hawk can probably solo him. I only got like, 4-5 attacks in, and the hawk didn't even lose 1/3 of its health (Mine was +2).

Been farming the ones in the haligtree area for runes and one just dropped miquella's lily.
One of the people saying they drop trina's lily says this happened in the heart of aeonia, which is where you find Trina's tomb (at least I assume it's trina's tomb, you find trina's sword in that area) so probably there's lore implications to the drop. Trina's Lily description says they signify faith in Trina, whereas Miquella's lily description says that they signify faith in the haligtree. Pretty neat little detail.
So I was fighting one in the haligtree and noticed a red aura as if he was buffed, was wondering if anyone noticed something similar
Not sure where to add it if I was to edit, but they do rarely drop Trina's Lily.

A trick I learned to farming these for whatever you need, scythe, spear, sword, or just the armor is after killing O'neil (heart of Aeonia grace) to just go straight south and jump out with a horse. 1 scythe knight will be there and immediately hug left. 3 spearmen and 2 scythe knights. 1 is getting out immediately and the others stay laying down in the corners surrounding the item (or body if already looted). Once killing the ones you need the items from, just head back to the grace on horseback since teleporting seems to remove the silver-pickled owl foot status effect. seems like you kill all of them in under 45-50~ seconds depending your weapon.

there seems to be 8 total knights in a semi-circle around the heart of aeonia grace. start from the north and rotate counter-clockwise. more than half will be lying down in the water, but player messages pointed them out for me. kill all 8, go back to grace, and repeat for drops

i have farmed the whole set together with my Wife, all armor pieces many times, several swords, she has gotten 5 scythes. 0 spears, i got 0 scythes and 0 spears. -.- she may be an outlier, or spear is more rare than scythe. cant confirm if spear is more rare than scythe but im feeling it.

I can conform getting
1-The clearrot knights sword
2-Cleanrot armor set
3-Halo scythe
4- couldn’t get the spear to drop but i’m sure they can be farmed.
To drop from the cleanrot knights south of the heart of aeonia grace ( where you fight commander O’neil )
There are two cleanrot versions
1- with spear
2- with scythe
Both versions can drop the armor pieces and the sword, but to get the spear, you have to farm the spear version and the same for the scythe.
*Notes
1-On very rare occasions they can drop two random pieces.
2- on vey rare occasions they can drop trina’s lily.

Cleanrot Gauntlets (Uncommon),
Cleanrot Greaves (Uncommon),
Cleanrot Spear (Rare),
Cleanrot Knight's Sword (Common),
Halo Scythe (Rare),
Trina's Lily (Uncommon).
Farmed this with 40 Arcane and Silver-Pickled Fowl Feet. Did around 200 kills trying to complete the drop table (to my knowledge).

good farming spot for the armor, sword and spear: right before the elemer of the briar boss room, just start at the boss room grace and go down the elevator, one standing right there with back turned. just be wary of the dogs that all come out, they aren’t an issue if you can just one shot the knight and go back up the lift.

Before anyone else wastes their time farming the spear, I swear to god it doesn't exist, I haven't seen any proof, and everyone who is claiming to own it is actually referencing the Halo Scythe, which is not the spear but is a drop from scythe wielding Knights.

Can confirm that these knights in the swamp area can also drop Trina's Lily

In case the editors arent aware, the Link to the knight's sword just goes to an error page, while the one under the picture works.
Backstabbing is highly effective off some of his attacks. You can dodge roll and strafe a few of them. Parrying is likely effective. Amusingly, I got poisoned after a backstab on him, despite both of us being on land.

Can confirm they drop the Cleanrot Spear: 16 STR 16 DEX 14 FTH requirement. Sacred Phalanx skill, D scaling on all those req. stats. Farmed the spear knights in the swamp for about an hour and finally got it.

Was really hoping you could get spells like the ones they use. Ritual spear fragment from ds3 type ****
This is the same guy we saw in the 2019 e3 trailer, the guy that epicly stabs General Radahn.
Does anyone know if we can get his spear? It feels so iconic for me

Their proportions are similar to the dancer of the Boreal Valley, their posture and movement is feminine. And the ash is also a female, but why did From named her Finlay, a masculine name? There's no women named Finlay. A mistranslation or From's misunderstanding of names?
