What follows is what follows is a FromSoft element that's as iconic as Miyazaki's love of poisonous swamps: the traditional "drop from Elden Ring Runes the ledge to the ledge before making your way to the bottom of a huge pit" set piece. (See also The Great Hollow, Majula, and the Hunter's Workshop). The journey is relatively straightforward Your first objective is the cage elevator which has the Redmane soldier guarding it located to the left of the starting point. The struts that are cracked on your path could break beneath your weight, but it's scripted so you'll take no damage from the fall . It's the direction you have to follow.

Take the elevator up and then walk the hallway towards the top of the hill. Go up the ladder and open doors at the top. This is an escape route back to the final spot of grace. There's a monk wearing a blackflame further down the hallway, with the perfect posture and terrifying incantations, but he shouldn't pose too much of a threat.

At the end of the hall, you can jump off onto the ledge to your left . Keep following the spiral around the tower until you are directly above a strut that has cracked. Similar to the one above, it will crack and you're instructed to stay alive. There is no other path to the base of the tower. But there was a glitch out and the fall nearly killed me twice, and did no damage the third time. If this happens to you, keep returning via the shortcut and attempt the leap until you land safely next to the elevator. Go down to another holy spot, and then, after passing another monk in blackflame, you'll find the boss door leading to the Godskin Apostle.

The majority of the Apostle's attacks are well-telegraphed, and it doesn't require a lot to be able to follow his routine. One sticking point for me was an attack during which he swiftly spins his blade front of him as an industrial fan, then holds the blade in place and then walking forward for massive damage. I never managed to escape his attack, so it's better to stay away until it is over. Be cautious about when you heal. The Godskin Apostle can whack into you a projectile of Elden Ring Items for sale blackflame while you are trying to sip in your flask.
