When you encounter Rennala, your goal is to take down her offspring, which are her summons. Rennala uses a variety of summons to attack you and your enemies, but you need to learn how to dodge her attacks. The following tips will show you how to fight her and take down her offspring using a crossbow or bow. Also, you need to be aware of her offspring, so you can identify them and use that information to your advantage.

Battle with Rennala
To defeat Rennala, you must summon the Spirit Ashes before her energy beam hits you. You can use the summon to dodge the energy beam. But beware, Rennala’s second phase is much harder than her first one! She will summon an evil ally, and her health will start to drop. This is why it is best to summon your allies before Rennala attacks!
When Rennala is low on health, she will cast summons to attack you. A good way to dodge these summons is to roll at a 45 degree angle. As you draw nearer to the enemy, you should try to use your Spirit Ashes to distract Rennala. She can cast a powerful spell on you, transforming you into a goddamn dragon.
Avoiding her attacks
One of the most difficult aspects of avoiding Rennala’s attacks is ensuring that you are in a position to dodge them. This is particularly important when it comes to her attacks, as she can turn her minions into magical gravestones. Fortunately, her attack has a long wind-up time, so players can often prevent her from unleashing it. Alternatively, try to place obstacles between yourself and Rennala so that she cannot attack you.
The main way to avoid the energy beam that Rennala can unleash is to use a rock sling. The latter of these two attacks is a special attack that can cause damage to anyone who lands in its path. However, you should also be prepared for the larger version of this attack, which is called “Spirit Ashes”.
Using a crossbow or bow
The crossbow and bow are similar weapons that deal high damage from far distances. A crossbow requires a reload and must be loaded before each shot. They also grant no guard protection and are not usually dropped. However, crossbows do require bolts for ammunition. This makes them difficult to obtain early on. However, this can be remedied by acquiring a crossbow if you want to use it for killing enemies.
A crossbow can be a good option for killing this boss. Its damage is higher than a bow, but it is still less effective against the giant stone thrower. A bow can be used to kill Rennala, but it is better if you use a bow. A bow is better if you have a strong attack, as it unleashes a whirlwind of enchanted light.
Identifying her offspring
The first step in identifying Rennala’s offspring is to find the golden egg she’s been using to create her barrier. These children are cloaked in a golden aura and will sling books at players. Once you approach them, you’ll hear them singing louder. You’ll need to take note of the number of children you’re dealing with.
As Rennala’s offspring, you can look for red hair and other similarities to her. Her three children are Ranni, Rykard, and Radahn. Ranni takes after her mother more than his father, and is particularly interested in undoing the influence of the Greater Will. Radagon, on the other hand, had more loyalty to Queen Marika.
While you can fight Rennala in the Elden Ring as a boss, you should not make it too difficult for yourself. While Rennala is not particularly difficult, it’s always a good idea to upgrade your weapon before taking on bosses. You’ll want to do this in order to have the best chance of surviving the encounter. After all, fighting a boss is primarily about your weapon upgrade level, so if you’ve been able to make that upgrade before fighting Rennala, you’re likely to have an easier time slaying her.
