Elden Ring has its fair share of terrifying and grotesque bosses that will haunt players once the game ends. Despite this, developer FromSoftware has snuck in a beautifully-designed boss that has seen many wondering where to find it.<\/p>\n

The Ancestor Spirit boss battle can be pretty gruelling to complete, factoring in its unique combat skills and the challenging puzzle to solve beforehand. This guide explores where to find and defeat this boss and solve the puzzle in Elden Ring.<\/p>\n

Where to find the Ancestor Spirit boss in Elden Ring?<\/h2>\n

The Ancestor Spirit boss is located in a remote arena in the underground area of the Siofra River. This area was previously explored when looking for Blaidd the Wolfman<\/a>, who got stuck here after your last meeting.<\/p>\n

Before encountering this celestial boss, you will need to solve a puzzle involving eight pillars found near a flight of stairs at Hallowhorn Grounds. The closest Site of Grace is the Siofra River Bank, northwest of Hallowhorn Grounds; you can fast travel to the Site from your World Map.<\/p>\n

How to solve the pillar puzzle in Elden Ring?<\/h2>\n

Once you have arrived at Hallowhorn Grounds, you must solve the pillar puzzle by lighting them in a particular order before starting the boss battle. Start by lighting the pillar in the middle of the river, which will light up a corresponding pillar at the temple steps.<\/p>\n

The locations of the other pillars are marked off on your World Map, which should make it easier to find them. As such, these are the locations of the remaining pillars as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • The second pillar is west of the first pillar at the Siofra River Bank<\/li>\n
  • The third pillar is on a small island east of the first pillar<\/li>\n
  • The fourth pillar is atop a cliff on the eastern side of the underground area<\/li>\n
  • The fifth pillar is north of the fourth pillar, close to the Worshipper’s Woods Site of Grace<\/li>\n
  • The sixth pillar is west of the Worshipper’s Woods Site of Grace<\/li>\n
  • The seventh and eighth pillars are beside each other north of the Worshipper’s Woods Site of Grace<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
