How to Beat Dark Souls 2 Boss ‘The Duke’s Dear Freja’ in Elden Ring Nightreign

Have you ever wanted to play a multiplayer game with your friends that features the OG Soulsborne experience, and it also has a roguelike element to it? Then look no further because Elden Ring Nightreign delivers that exact experience to you on a silver platter.

Elden Ring Nightreign has been the talk of the town for a while now, and with the release date inching closer every day, people are wondering what new horrors FromSoftware will add this time.

To our surprise, an old Dark Souls 2 boss is making a comeback in FromSoftware’s upcoming game, and she has given a lot of archanophobes a hard time. Of course, we are talking about Duke’s Dear Freja, and here’s a guide on how to beat her in the Elden Ring spinoff.

Nightreign is acknowledging FromSoft’s previous bosses

Elden Ring Nightreign was announced back during the Game Awards of 2024, and after waiting for more than half a year, the game will finally be out on the 30th of this month. Recently, IGN revealed on their

page that Duke’s Dear Freja, a boss originally from Dark Souls 2, is making a grand return with the same design and attack pattern.

Duke’s Dear Freja from Dark Souls 2 is a massive spider that has two heads and is found within the Brightstone Cove Tseldora, guarding the Writhing Ruin so that players won’t be able to enter. Along with two heads, the spider also has a formidable shell that boasts high resistance, rendering her two heads the only vulnerable place that leads us to victory.

Duke’s Dear Frerja uses a plethora of moves and combos in Dark Souls 2, and in Nightreign, the boss will probably use her old moveset, which includes

• Leg Stomps: Where she stomps her legs 2-4 times.
• Soul Bolt: Shoots out a beam of light that can’t be blocked and deals a huge amount of damage.
• Web/Acid *****: Where the boss will either shoot webs that slow the player or acid that deals damage to the player.
• Body Slam: She will jump into the air and attempt to crush the player upon landing.
• Spiderlings: The boss also summons little spiders that deal damage and spawn every few minutes.

The best way to fight the spider in Nightreign is to first assign one of the teammates to handle the spiderlings, where they will distract or take care of the spiderlings themselves and will not let them touch the other players. The other teammate can take aggro on the spider while you go hit the spider’s vulnerable areas, which are both its heads.

You can use this strategy, alternating among your teammates to make it fun and possible for the whole team to beat the huge two-headed spider. The moves you wanna look out for are the Soul Bolt, which will definitely kill you instantly, and the Web and Acid *****, which will either slow you down or deal a lot of damage. When she uses her Leg Stomps move, staying right up on her legs will give you a better chance to attack the head immediately.

Whether you’re a veteran Soulsborne player or diving into the genre for the first time, Duke’s Dear Freja’s appearance is a nod to the franchise’s legacy and a reminder that no horror is ever truly gone; instead, it just evolves.

So prepare accordingly, rally your allies, and most of all, don’t give up, no matter how many times you have to try again.
