The path to find Midra is a dangerous and long one. This boss arena is inside the Midra’s Manse dungeon, an abandoned building in the southwest corner of the Abyssal Woods area.
Within Midra’s Manse, you need to find the path hidden behind illusory walls and paintings to find the Second Floor Chamber Site of Grace. In the next room, you will find the boss in their initial form. Although you can’t summon friendly NPCs to help you in this fight, it’s possible to use your Spirit Ashes.Midra, Lord Of Frenzied Flame weaknesses and how to prepare
Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame is a fierce enemy, but it’s possible to employ more than one strategy to defeat them. As the first step to prepare yourself for this fight, you want to have your Scadutree Blessing at level 10 or higher — even at level 10, it’s possible to die after getting hit two or three times.
Holy damage is a solid option here. You can take off considerable chunks of their health bar with these attacks. Prioritize weapons with fast-casting skills or imbue them with Holy damage by using Holy Grease.
Avoid using Fire Damage, since the Lord of Frenzied Flame has high resistance against Fire damage. You will also have a hard time inflicting other detrimental effects such as Poison on the boss.
Instead, a good strategy is a Bleed build — Midra is more susceptible to blood loss buildup than other bosses in the DLC. Katanas such as Nagakiba or Rivers of Blood work well.
That stacks well if you also focus on breaking Midra’s stance. This boss’s resistance against Heavy attacks seems lower than the other bosses in the DLC, so it only takes a few hits to stagger them. Because of this, jumping attack builds, weapons infused with the Ash of War: Lion’s Claw, or double-heavy weapon builds are pretty effective against Midra.
Consider running weapons that can inflict blood loss such as Bloodhound’s Fang, Morning Stars, or the DLC’s Bloodfiend’s Arm to combo Bleed with stance damage.
Also look for skills and spells that shoot projectiles since you can stop one of Midra’s attacks with them.
While Midra constantly casts Frenzied Flame attacks, becoming inflicted with Madness should only be a concern if you’re having a difficult time avoiding them. If this is your case, you just need to run talismans or pieces of gear to increase your Focus since it’s the stat that raises your resistance against Madness. A few options are the Clarifying Horn Charm, the Mottled Necklace, and pieces of the Prophet Set. How to Beat Midra in Elden Ring DLC
Midra is an intense enemy. They don’t have a vast and complex set of moves, but the ones Midra has are enough to kill you with a couple of hits.
