Elden Ring Magnus the Beast Claw Notes & Tips
- 1x Festering Bloody Finger is needed for each invasion attempt
- The player does not need to defeat Magnus, or even fight at all, to progress Varre's questline. Consuming the Festering Bloody Finger 3 times (via invading him 3 times) counts for completion.
- As such, the player can invade him and then use the Finger Severer item to quickly fullfill this condition.

For the purposes of Varre's questline, it seems either 1 kill or 3 deaths fighting Magnus count as a win. I eventually ran out of fingers trying to kill him, went back to Varre hoping he'd supply me more, and instead we advanced to the next step of finding a dead maiden to get blood from.

Just tested: If you return to Varre after failing to slay Magnus a number of times, you'll still be given the Bloody Finger, and then try to invade Magnus again, this time not requiring any Festering Bloody Finger (assuming that the unlimited-use Bloody Finger takes precedence over the one-time use item). Defeated him with the Pureblood Knight's Medal already in my possession.
(Head canon start) Gurranq possibly fed Deathroot to Magnus (and became his champion), in order to hunt and spite Mohg's followers. (head canon over)

Whose Magnus and why are we killing him? Also, perhaps even more importantly, why does he look like just some random hobo and not a badass Tarnished warrior worthy of such a lofty title? Why not have him wear one of the unreleased armor sets, or perhaps even the Beast Champion set? Have him be Bernahl’s unnamed brother or something.
Anyway, no more mandatory PvP to advance an NPC quest, disregard everything I said above. 10/10, Miyazaki has done it again.

Went for him on my NG+1 file where I killed Varré right away in Limgrave, invasion sign was there.

Is it possible to fight him while online? I hate invasions but I like having messages and bloodstains around

Magnus is one of the remaining worshippers of Serosh, Lord of Beasts, who went to become King Godfrey's Regent.
Where does this information come from?

I think it's so awesome that they just straight up added extra invader NPC's so you wouldn't have to pay money on consoles just to do multi-player to progress Varre's questline

Not only makes Varre's quest less annoying to complete, you get a Somber 6 very early on and can powerstance Great Stars in NG.
I like this guy. Shame I gotta kill him.
