Godfrey, First Elden Lord and Hoarah Loux, Warrior is a two-phase Legend Boss in Elden Ring. Godfrey was Queen Marika's first consort, and thus the first Elden Lord of the Lands Between. Before earning this title, he was known as Hoarah Loux, the chieftain of the badlands and a bloodthirsty warrior. Godfrey took the Beast Regent Serosh upon his back after committing to his role as a Lord in order to suppress his violent urges. After fighting countless wars, Marika deprived him and his warriors of their grace, marking them as the first Tarnished.
This is not an optional boss, as players must defeat it to advance in Elden Ring.
Godfrey, First Elden Lord (Golden Shade) is another variant of this boss.

[video coming soon]
Godfrey, First Elden Lord Fight Strategy
The Best Tips for Godfrey, First Elden Lord:
- Mainly deals Standard Damage, so prioritize defence towards that type of damage.
- No matter the build, during phase 1 it is important to keep close. He will otherwise dash towards you and Stomp, covering the entire area in AoE.
- In phase 2, recognize his grapple patterns.
- Most stomp attacks which cause a shockwave attack are more easily jumped over, than rolled through
- Alternatively, skills/spells that keeps player above ground can be used to avoid damage and inflict it at the same time.
- His roar buffs and successful grab moves are slow, what player can use to cast Ancient Dragons' Lightning Strike at point-blank for massive damage.
General Strategy
As one of the easier late game bosses, Godfrey is not an overly complicated fight. He hits extremely hard, but is relatively slow and telegraphs his moves way ahead of time. Given you have enough stamina, you can block most of his axe swings in phase 1, although dodging them should be your priority.
Most of his stomp moves can be avoided simply by jumping as soon as you see him lower his leg.
The regular stomp travels in a cone in front of him, leaving him briefly vulnerable to attacks. Avoid being caught on the wider side of the cone.
Godfrey can empower his stomps. He will stand at a distance and raise his axe overhead, slowly lifting his legs. He will have a red aura while the effect lasts. Until it dissipates, the shockwaves from his stomp attacks will cover the entire arena.
Once Godfrey is brought down to about 50% HP, a cutscene will play where he sheds his armor, slays his regent Serosh, and unveils his true form as Hoarah Loux, Warrior.
As Hoarah Loux, Godfrey ditches his axe in favor of hand-to-hand grappling. The key to beating him is recognizing the patterns for his grapple moves and dodging them accordingly, as they might one-hit players with low Vigor and will go through a shield block. The best openings to damage him are after he ends an attack chain, as well as after a leap attacks.
Thankfully, emerging as Hoarah Loux does not refill his health bar, so you only have to deal with the final half.
Melee Users
Strategy Writeup for Melee Users
Magic and Ranged Users
At the beginning of the fight, Godfrey will approach the player calmly, leaving you ample time to stage your opening move. Inflicting Frostbite is a good call, since his overall resistance are low, especially during 2nd part of the fight
Sorcery users can start the fight with Terra Magica, followed by Rennala's Full Moon. Comet Azur can be risky, as Godfrey might open with a jump attack if the player isn't in range. Speed is more important than damage here, especially in phase 2, so good choices would be Comet/Glintstone Cometshard or Glintstone Icecrag.
As for Incantations, you can start the first phase with Borealis's Mist. This will provoke the First Elden Lord to perform an attack, often a stomp, but you should be safe during casting the incantation. It might be worth trying the same in the second phase, although Hoarah Loux's attack patterns makes this risky.
During the second half of each phase, a fast spell like Lightning Spear is the best choice to chip away his health. Roar buffs can be used to approach him carefully, then cast charged Ancient Dragons' Lightning Strike for maximum damage.
Godfrey, First Elden Lord Attacks & Counters
Godfrey, First Elden Lord | ||
Attack | Description | Counter |
Axe Toss | Leaps upwards, tossing his axe a short distance forward before quickly chasing after it. | Run towards and under him to avoid the axe and subsequent slam, or dodge. |
Plunging Axe | Leaps upwards, then plunges the haft of his axe into the ground. | Dodge as he lands on the ground. |
Triple Axe Combo | Swings to his right, then to his left, following up with a final slash to the left. | Dodge towards the direction each attack is coming from. |
Overhead Smash | Performs a quick overhead smash with his axe, often followed by other moves, most commonly a 360° spin and a subsequent second overhead smash. | Dodge to the side. |
Fissure | Briefly whirls his axe above his head before crashing it into the ground, pushing it down further after a brief delay. This creates a narrow fissure that spans the whole length of the arena. The released energy burst deals immense damage. | Move out of the fissure immediately (to the side). |
Stomp | Raises one leg for a powerful stomp, sending a shockwave that causes a cone of rocks to burst from the ground in front of him. Often combos this with other moves. | Jump as his foot lands or dodge the narrowest part of the cone at melee range. |
Regal Roar | Raises his axe overhead with both hands, lifting right leg, charging up with a red aura. Then stomps the ground, releasing a shockwave spanning almost the entire arena in all directions. As long as his aura is active, all his stomps will have an arena-wide radius. |
Jump as his foot lands. Avoid follow-up combos with additional jumps. Or, get in as much damage as you can, then dodge at the last minute. |
Hoarah Loux | ||
---|---|---|
Attack | Description | Counter |
Earth Shattering Stomp | Just as in phase 1, but additionally, he's smashing the ground with both hands, sending two shockwaves consecutively. | Jump as his leg hits the ground, then avoid follow-up combos with additional jumps. |
Power Bomb | Runs towards his target with his arms swinging high, attempting to grab them. If the attack connects, they are tossed into the air and Hoarah Loux leaps after them, slamming them back down for immense damage. He will sometimes perform a running leap to start off the move, which will be much faster than his regular running animation. | Time your dodge well and dodge to the side. |
Running Power Bomb | Dashes towards his target with his arms crossed above his chest, performing a claw strike. If the attack connects, they are sent flying diagonally up and forward, after which Hoarah Loux leaps after them to slam them to the ground. | Can be dodged just like Power Bomb, of which this is an alternate version with slightly higher damage. |
Hoarah Loux's Earthshaker | A three-step move: First a roar that knocks targets down if it connects, directly followed by a leap. Upon impact, he slams his fist into the ground, creating a large shockwave. Finally, he plunges both arms into the ground, pulling them back out after a short delay. This causes energy to erupt from the ground in several places. |
Maintain distance during roar, time a dodge for the slam. As he is plunging his arms into the ground, clear the area of eruption. When in safe zone, a long-range attack can be performed with ease. |
Kick | A powerful kick upwards that knocks players down. | Can easily be sidestepped or dodged due to its narrow hitbox. |
Choke Slam | Winds up his right arm, then after a short delay attempts to grab his target. If the grab connects, he lifts them overhead with one hand and slams them back down. | Dodge backwards or to the side to avoid the grab. This attack is often used after he knocked the player down with his kick, while they are immune to be grabbed. |
Claw Barrage | Performs two quick swipes with his claws, followed by a delayed uppercut with his left. He will sometimes follow this up with a Choke Slam. | Block; or dodge in the direction each attack comes from. |
Leg sweep | Low position leg sweep, performed mainly after other leg attacks | Jump or back away |
Hoarah Loux's Rage | After lowering health to about 20% of max HP, Hoarah enters a rage mode in which he at start shouts with his right leg up and then attacks the ground 2 times. Each attack unleashes a shockwave, that covers whole area (like Regal Roar). |
Jump to avoid shockwave. Or, get in as much damage as you can, then dodge at the last moment. |
Godfrey, First Elden Lord Lore, Notes & Other Trivia
- At the beginning of the fight, Godfrey is seen cradling the corpse of his son Morgott, slowly dissipating into golden dust. His other sons are Mohg and Godwyn.
- Serosh is seen biting into Godfrey’s shoulder during the fight. This is synonymous with him acting as a sort of limiter for his true nature.
- Player will be teleported to the center of the arena for phase 2 only if they don't finish the first phase with a critical strike.
- Lore suggests that the powerful warrior Hoarah Loux was chosen by Queen Marika as her consort, making him the First Elden Lord. Due to this, he took the Beast Regent Serosh upon his back, taming his bloodthirsty and wild nature, and taking on the name of Godfrey.
After winning many wars for the Erdtree, he was robbed of his grace, and was banished from the Lands Between, becoming the first Tarnished. - His Golden Shade variant has a two-headed axe, while Godfrey only has half of the axe head left.
- Serosh has two model meshes, with the brighter one being used for cutscenes. The mesh's name referred to as “Marikesu,” likely related to Maliketh.
- During 1st phase, Godfrey is immune to debuff caused by Blade of Death and Destined Death - skills saps his HP, but does not reduce his max HP. This is a very rare immunity in Elden Ring and it is unknown, whenever it is either a glitch or there is a lore explanation.
- If Godfrey's stance is broken by the hit that triggers phase transition, nothing will happen and it will regenerate
- Bug: If Tarnished is grabbed during an action like casting a spell, it's model may act in a weird way.
- During first phase there is Hoarah Loux model under boss fight arena.
- In 1.00, both 1st and 2nd phases has separate healthbars.
- Hoarah Loux's Earthshaker attack lacks veins on the ground in 1.00 version of the game.

Honestly, one of the most epic boss fights ever. The second phase transition gives me shivers, when you realize that he was just messing around before. And the amount of respect that he treats you with after you beat the living **** out of him is commendable

60% of the difficulty of this fight would evaporate if they hadn't made it so during phase 2, every short-hop is punctuated with a stomp. They legitimately just wanted to soften you up for the phase 3 grappler Hoarah, so they decided 'He can't move without an arena-wide AOE'.
I'm calling Godfrey the point where they ran out of moves for "dudes in armor with no magic". He's not hard when you figure his **** out but he's a dying breed.

His german Translation has a wrong line. Instead of saying "to be granted audience once more" he says "you will be granted once more" reffering to the tarnished instead to himself

So he gave up his traditions for Marika, then she exiled him once he became inconvenient, and THEN when she asked him to come back and do **** for her, he unironically came back to do what she told him to do.

I really, really enjoyed the first phase of this fight but feel his second phase would be better suited as a different boss. They both demand completely different loadouts and strategies, I'd love them as separate bosses but feel they do eachother a disservice. Neither phase can be 'too' interesting because each can only exist as 50% of the other. Overall I'd have loved it if Godfrey was the story battle and Hoarah Lux was an optional 'dream' encounter.

I'm on my 3rd playthrough about to face Morgott. Have defeated Horah Loux 3 times. Two times on my own, a third time in my friends playthrough. I can't wait to fight this guy again, it's glorious, such a spectacle.
This time I will face him very aggressively with a rl150 quality build with the lordsworn great sword.
Rest in peace Serosh, rest in peace Horah Loux, you're both gigachads.

Its funny how end game bosses become progressively more annoying to fight (and im not talking about it in the way they become hrder and fun), Maliketh is a Wolf that thinks hes a Enderman, cant stand still for 2 seconds, gideon can really screw you up if he keeps spamming his barrier and the swords above head, Radagon manages to make everyones life being a hell, Elden Beast runs and attacks you at distance, and there is Hoarah Loux... the 1st phase is nice, fair, balanced, for the 1st time in the game it almost make you feel like you are as powerful as him, however when he turns his 1.5 it becomes more unfair as his attacks gets the whole arena, but his phase 2 and 2.5... they just forgot how to make an actual AI for him in 2nd phase, he doesnt want to go more than 2 meters away from you, and all he does is spamming grab attacks and "m1" that would not be a problem if he was not able to 2 tap you with grabs or his normal attack, but he is, basically Hoarah Loux is an extremely unfunny boss, his spam is befiting a clown, and he will punnish you for any little mistake, and leave few safe openings since in this game you throw a planet at a boss and he is not gonna move or get his attacks interrupted, normally this is ok because most bosses have quite a few safe openings, this is not the case, so, if you want to keep your mental health, just summon mimic tears or call for a overleveled player for help.
And Godfrey/Hoarah Loux lore sucks, XD he has no reason to come to the erdtree and still he is there just to increase boss count and the time we get stuck at the game

People talk about how badass he is but here’s the real story: dad who walked out of his ghetto to “get milk”. turns up one day married to the whitest ho in the land while his daughter ends up selling her body to an old daddy who pimps her out to do jobs. Tries his best to fit in by taking a white name and dying his hair blonde but eventually gets discarded for a younger boy toy from the suburbs. Tries to sneak back into the white woman’s house later in desperate attempt to get back with her. Died knowing that he went full ghetto and still got his ass beat by a younger suitor. That’s his real legacy.

Remember gascoigne? This is him now. Feeling old? You better not, because he ain't feeling old either.

"Twas nobly fought" he said after beating my ass for the 20th time
Guys don't freak out but I think godfrey is actually hoarah loux, their crowns look similar.

Heard somewhere he has a phase 1.5 similarly to radahn where some attacks get upgraded(radahn starts using magic in phase 1 and godfrey's ground explosions get bigger)

Damn, this guy is so badass and a blast to play against. I don't even mind getting beaten over and over again if it means getting to see all his cool moves. One thing they could improve is his phase 2 name. Going from the title of 'First Elden Lord' to just 'Warrior' is a big downgrade lol. It's not nearly as menacing as the boss itself.

overall fair feeling and satisfying boss fight. too fair, considering his low health pool but makes up for the mediocre challenge with very entertaining spectacle especially in the second phase. easily the most badass boss in the game. his first phase attacks are also very satisfying to avoid. 7/10

Wow, I've been doing a faith/dex playthrough and this guy is pure agony, like hitting him with a squeaky hammer, Horrah Loux was painful.

I hate this guy on ng+ cycles. / in co-op. Wanna know why? dude 1 shots with his ground explosions, his 2nd phase buff explosion, and grabs.
And no buff prevents that from happening incase he is spamming it. You can maybe survive 1 explosion, grab. And his buff exploison. But in a fight on higher ng+ cycles, or co-op this guy kills you with 1 hit even if you have max hp and damage negation stacked. Which is totall bs.
But base game dude is great.

tf are you supposed to do during his 20 second long barrage combo's where all you can do is run? and bu the end he does a command grab which oneshots you because you dont have enough stamina from all the running

Shabriri makes this easy mode if you just want to beat him quick. His incants do crazy damage and he can tank a hit. Not to mention he loves the piercing fang AoW, and since he's somewhat weak to pierce, it's nice. I felt like I did nothing but do the poise damage since all late game bosses laugh at holy damage.

Fighting the hulk as a boss, while fun, was rather immersion breaking. Not sure what they were thinking here. Felt like playing a different game for a moment. It’s an especially jarring contrast followed up by the sober (and much more traditional souls-like) radagon.

Didn’t expect to fight the hulk in a fromsoft game. I think this boss was an intern project.
This guide has to be trolling with saying its an easier late game boss. Dude spams grab after grab after grab, stomp after stomp, theres is absolutely no windows for any type of punishment. Im using a dagger and can literally barely get hits off on bro without being 45 hit combo'd and then thrown into the air 3 times in a row. I could have coded a better enemy AI by slapping my d!ck on the keyboard. This guy is abysmal to fight and is in no way fun or enjoyable to battle.
