Tips for defeating this Altus Plateau Dragon.
TheAncient Dragon Lansseax in Elden Ringis a boss in the wild on the Altus Plateau.
There are two encounters with the lightning-shooting dragon Lansseax in .
We’ve covered both encounters here for you.
First Encounter
The first time you meet him is not far from theSite of Grace’Abandoned Coffin'.
He appears on the slope leading north-east towards the capital.
For many, this should be the case after the Great Elevator of Dectus.
The first encounter is reasonably relaxed, asyou only have to do a little damagebefore he disappears.
Second Encounter
Youcan kill Lansseax at the second encounter.
He appears on the plateau to the west of the capital’s protective walls.
This is best entered from the Site of Grace ‘Rampartside Path’.
Take advantage of this opening.
The fight is on!
Or it can simply swipe you with its tail.
So far, so familiar.
If you are further down and he comes with the sword, it gets trickier.
Get to safety or sprint towards him - this can also work.
Sometimes it also rears up to spit fire and then you should stand somewhere else.
Thebest place to stand is under its legs, where you’re free to reliably deal damage.
If Lansseax flutters into the air, a burst of flame immediately follows in an area below.
You are familiar with this attack from other Dragons in the game.
Get out of the danger zone and then close in again when the fire has died down.
Keep going and you’ll eventually beat this Dragon.
