Lords of the Fallen Bosses and Rewards

Bosses in Lords of the Fallen will drop a variety of rare and valuable items, but more commonly players will be able to gain additional Vestige Seeds, a rare consumable material that allows players to build a forged Vestige at specific locations. Other than Vestige Seeds, Bosses will sometimes drop their Equipment, such as Weapons, tools, or garments. Colossal Bosses or Main Bosses also provide the player with Boss Remembrances after their defeat, this requires players to Soulflay the nearby Stigmas at the site of the fight. 

How to Obtain Boss Equipment in Lords of the Fallen? 

Players can bring Boss Remembrances, obtained from Colossal Bosses, back to Molhu, a merchant in Skyrest Bridge to unlock a set of stock related to the Remembrance. You will be able to obtain most of the Boss's gear, armour, equipment, and Spells for the Remembrance and a certain amount of Umbral Scouring. The Bowl of Revelations is required and must be given to Molhu to unlock the "Offer Remembrance" feature. For Secondary Boss Equipment, Secondary Bosses drop a few random equipment set pieces from their right. Some of these Secondary Bosses can then also be encountered and farmed as enemies to obtain the rest of their equipment. 

Lords of the Fallen Bosses Remembrances

Boss Remembrances are additional valuable items obtained from Colossal Bosses also known as the Main Bosses of the game. After defeating a Colossal Boss, players will need to locate the Fragments of past events to unveil a scene or additional dialogue from a previous event that occurred in Axiom. They appear in the Umbral realm as Stigmas, which requires players to raise their Umbral Lamp at those specific sites. In some cases, if you die first while in the Axiom Realm and beat the boss in the Umbral Realm, you will not need to warp since you are already in the realm of the dead.

Players will then need to lock onto the Stigma and then Soulflay it to reveal the fragment. This will trigger a dialogue sequence that will allow you to gain the boss's Remembrance item along with additional loot after the dialogue ends. These can then be brought back to Molhu to gain access to additional equipment. 

How to Use a Remembrance Item in Lords of the Fallen?

To use a Remembrance Item or Boss Remembrance, players must first acquire the Bowl of Revelations which can be found in Pilgrim's Perch. You can check our walkthrough for Pilgrim's Perch to find out how to obtain the key item. Once you have it, return to Skyrest Bridge, warp into the Umbral realm, and give the quest item to Molhu. By giving the Bowl of Revelations, the feature to "Offer Remembrance" when interacting with Molhu becomes available.

Combat Tips for LotF Bosses

Bosses in Lords of the Fallen are encountered with varying strengths, weaknesses, and attack styles. In general, damage styles are sorted into Damage types (Physical, Fire, Holy, Wither) and Status Effects (Bleed,  Burn, Ignite, Smite, Poison, Frostbite) which each have their own effects and associated Consumables that can give you resistance or have the ability to cure the inflicted status. View each of the attacks each boss fight with below to correctly prepare for each encounter. When facing different bosses, players can also take note of the color of the damage numbers that pop up on the side of the boss bar upon dealing a successful attack. A Red damage number indicates that the boss is more susceptible to the attack or the type of damage you are dealing. Other times it will appear in white or grey, with grey indicating that enemy is somewhat resistant to that specific type of damage

Boss Encounters in Lords of the Fallen

All bosses can be identified by their large health pool and their boss health bar that will appear towards the bottom of the screen. However, some bosses are crucial encounters to the main storyline and are categorized as main bosses also known as Colossal Bosses. Main Bosses will also commonly have an introductory cutscene. Other bosses, or mini-bosses, may not have as grand of an entrance as the main bosses but are not necessarily optional encounters.
