Godric The Golden is the second main boss that you encounter in Elden Ring. He can be pretty tough to beat if you are not prepared, and if you are here, chances are that you have been killed by him a couple of times. In this Elden Ring guide, we will walk you through how to cheese Godric The Golden and save yourself hours of suffering and frustration.
Elden Ring Godric Cheese Build
Weapon | Any |
Spirit Summon | Rotten Stray Ashes |
This build is pretty simple. You can use any weapon that you like all you really need is the Rotten Stray Ashes spirit summon. These apply the rot status effect that does rot damage over time.
Furthermore, you can use armor or talismans that you have available or prefer since you are not going to attack the boss often and are not going to deal major damage yourself.
How To Cheese Godric The Grafted In Elden Ring
Just as you enter the boss arena, summon the Rotten Stray. These will need to deal a couple of attacks before the damage over time effect is applied. We recommend upgrading the spirit summon as much as possible or distracting the boss. If you have the aggro, you can prevent the spirit summon from dying and successfully apply the rot effect.
You do not have to worry about dealing a lot of damage. You can stay safe and damage from afar while dodging his attacks. The Rotten Stray spirit summon will do all the damage you need once the rot effect is applied. Once the rot damage takes effect over time, you can keep running away from the boss and let his HP bar fall to zero. If you have a couple of HP flasks on hand, then you can head in and land a couple of blows to kill Godric even faster.
How To Get Rotten Stray Ashes

The Rotten Stray Ashes can be found in Caelid. You need to head north from the Sellia Under-Stair Site of Grace, and you will find the Rotten Stray Ashes in a destroyed building.
