Curseblade Labirith is a dungeon boss in Elden Ring. It is one of the expansion's additions, found in the Land of Shadow.

Curseblade Labirith is a horned ascetic imprisoned at the bottom of the Bonny Gaol in Scadu Altus. He spins twin circular blades and cloaks himself in darkness to fight unseen. His attack strings are long but end with clear openings. His reward is the spirit ash of Curseblade Meera, the companion he lost in the gaol.

Lore


Labirith wears a mask crowned with tangled horns and the loincloth of the tower's ascetics. He fights with two shimmering circular blades that make him seem to dance as they spin.

The curseblades were ascetics who failed to become tutelary deities of the land. They were a scourge to any who invaded the hornsent homeland. Before the invasion, they were shunned and imprisoned.

In the gaol, Labirith met Meera. When she died, Labirith was plunged into a devastating darkness.

Weaknesses


Parry Yes

Attacks


  • Darkness: he raises his arm and the area around him goes dark, making him hard to see. Standing at the edge of the dark draws him out.
  • Dash attacks: he dashes out of the darkness toward the player. A shield or guard stops the rush.
  • Long blade strings: fast spinning combos that are hard to roll through. Guarding until the string ends, then striking, works best.

Tactics


  1. Be ready to roll the moment the fight begins, because he casts darkness at once.
  2. Stand at the edge of the darkness so he must come out to attack.
  3. Use a shield or a weapon with good guard against his fast strings.
  4. Wait for the last hit of each string, then land a heavy attack to stagger him.
  5. Summon the Mimic Tear Ashes to split his focus.
