Fire Prelate | Elden Ring Wiki

the whip version should've been a boss to replace one of the repeated boss fights. There's only one in the entire game and you can just run past him even though he's a super hard and tanky enemy

Submit

No info on resistances or weaknesses?

If the armor is any indication (and it usually is,) these Fire Prelates should be fought with slash or pierce weapons (equally effective,) and lightning first, holy second, magic third, and fire obviously last.

Their lowest armor resistance is Vitality so death blight is a decent option. Robustness is next and it allows for blood loss and frostbite to be good approaches. Immunity is third so poison and rot are less effective but not ineffective. Their highest resistance stat is Focus so probably don't bother with sleep or madness.

smough but elden ring

I'm surprised that these enemies weren't used for a boss fight

Submit

the whip guy has such ridiculous swagger i love him

Submit

Ibai

Submit

the fight against the one with no cloth on in gelmir is like fighting grrm in his birthday suit

Submit

the entire armor set dropped from 1st kill, insane

Submit

Can someone double check the drop on the greaves? I'm probably just coping but there's no way I've been farming for 2 hours with 185 discovery, got 11 chests, 11 gloves, 1 helmet, and enough runes for levels 139, 140, and 141 without a single greaves drop. Right? Right??

Submit

Probably the most badass enemies in the game, tied with crucible knights. Love these guys

Submit

This is Smough distant cousin, Brough.

Submit

They do Smough cosplay as a testament to the weight of their responsibilities.
Their lordvessel hats go sicko mode when they reach enlightened levels of Faith investment that no Tarnished alive can ever match.
One of them was so disgusted at the laziness of his men that he not only ordered his own decapitation, but also made said decapitated head into a setpiece so that he could glare disapprovingly at his men post-mortem. His rotting head is STILL more capable of reaching the aforementioned levels of enlightenment than you.

Absolute chads holy ****

Drrr skibidi dop yes yes yes yes

Submit

Imagine if blackflame prelates existed... instead of red their garments would be grey and instead of dark iron their gauntlets, boots and helmet would be made from a more gold-ish metal

Submit

Normally he opens by throwing fire, so running up to him the fire will usually go over your head, then spamming Prayerful Strike will stun him after two hits. I was killing him in three Prayerful Strikes.

Submit

These dudes are such chads. The helmet description says that the only way the cauldron ignites is when their faith is at its zenith. I have 99 faith and my hat doesn’t light on fire. These guys have more faith than even perceivable by a mere tarnished runt.

Submit

imagine other elements for them l

Submit

First time I saw one of these guys was at Fort Laiedd, when he was just standing with his back facing me as I entered the fort. For a brief second, I chuckled to myself because of the shape of the armor. Then he turned around and anime walked towards me with a colossal hammer and throwing fire at me, and I was terrified.

10/10 enemy, very intimidating

Submit

These guys are so badass lol

Submit

the one with the whip beats my ass so hard whenever i fight him

Submit

Visions of duo. But no skinny sort ahead

Submit

He somehow dropped the whip, armor and gauntlets on first kill. What a nice chunk chum chum.

Submit

Pretty cool that they put your mom in this game.

Submit

smough is so hot in this game

Submit

Ngl
Kinda surprised they aren't fully functional bosses. They could have replaced at least one or two of the many repeating boss encounters

Submit

The "Elden ring fire prelate drops" table has the crozier hammer dropping from the prelate at fort Laiedd as a guaranteed drop. But just above the item drop table it says the prelate in giant conquering hero's grave can drop it as well. Can anyone attest to the accuracy of that ?

Submit

Can the hammer one be parried? I tried and failed, but maybe I'm just bad at it.

Submit

Just fought the one in Fort Laiedd, and rotten breath deleted him in about three seconds on a faith caster build.

Submit

Too bad unlike smough this one spams a ranged attack, like seemingly most enemies in elden ring

Submit

Remember "fire pot dude"?

Submit

Droped whip after a 10 Minute fight... they are harder then some of the bosses

Submit

While Ornstein transcended time to find the Nameless King, Smough just straight up went to another game.

Submit

Ah yes, my favorite enemy: Lordvessel Smough

Submit

best waifu

Submit

Seems like the strat for these chonky boys is to be patient and wait for openings, or alternatively hit them with something powerful if they haven't noticed you yet.

Submit

The prelate in mountainstop of the giants has dropped its armour and helm. I really want to try that thorn whip, I see a lot of farming in the not too distant future.

Submit

Would gelmir’s fury be a good spell to use on a fire Prelate cosplay? Haven’t used it but it looks like it might be similar to the fireball eruption attack these guys do?

Submit

He may be weak to lightning

Submit

Where are these drop rates from? I swear I feel like they must be higher for this particular enemy, pretty much every time I kill one it drops a piece of armor

Submit

Ornstein went to drangleic. Smough went to the lands between.

Submit

How much HP?

Submit

Nikocado avocado after hot chili mukbang

Elden Lizzo

Submit

Fromsoft's obligatory "fat guy with a hammer" enemy

Submit

if you want to farm the thorn whip a bit easier shoot the fire prelate with a bow and lure him to the entrance doors at the giants mountain top catacombs; he shouldn't be able to get in and you can chip him away safely with scarlet rot or any other projectiles.

Submit

Dude has anger management issues. You tap him and he blows his top. Literally.

Submit

You ain't slick, Smough. Get back to Anor Londo.

Submit

There's no way the helmet's drop probability is 5% I've tried with all 3 of them and O've got all the pieces several times except for the helmet. Not even once.

Submit

Use carian retaliation when he uses the fireball incantation

Submit

Strategy I used: 1) learn their four to five attacks, 2) bludgeon them when they are not bludgeoning me. Hope this helps

Submit

What is he weak to

Submit

A wizard is never prelate nor is he preearly, he arrives preciselywhenhemeansto

Submit

If you go into the room behind him you can pelt him with a bow until he dies

Submit

In the first gameplay trailer we got, this guy was a mini-boss in the Academy, wonder why they changed that and decided to have that Red Wolf in its place.

Submit

Another one in the Mountaintops of the Giants, right before the long, narrow stone bridge. This one also wields a Thorn Whip instead of an Inferno Crozier.

Submit

Shame how Comet Azur annihilated him. Dunno what his moveset even looks like.

Submit

I wonder if he misses Ornstein?

Submit

Are there ashes of this guy? I need to summon him

Submit

Alolan Smough

Submit

He drops his full armour set and they are quite heavy. About every other time I killed him he dropped something

Submit

does this dude drop gloves? I have his weapon, chest, head and legs but no gloves

Submit

Strategy:
Lure him out of the arena behind the Fortress and fight him from Horseback!
Bait his attacks and use his long recovery windows to charge in and attack him!
If he begins his fire Charge, JUMP ONTO HIGHER GROUND! Stops the Charge!
Beat Him LV 27 and got THE SLEDGY!!!
(Can't wield it yet tough!)

Submit

Any info on prelate armor ? I got fire prelate greaves the first time i killed him

Submit

Smough's cousin

Submit

is there any way to get this dude's armor?

Submit

Got the hammer on the first time I killed him, went back at night and got his helmet as a drop next

Submit

Drops the armor too, got the chestpiece when I killed it.

Submit

Lordvessel Smough

Submit

Sledgy Dude!!!
