Demi-Human Queen Margot is a dungeon boss in Elden Ring.

Demi-Human Queen Margot is a towering demi-human queen who rules the depths of Volcano Cave on Mt. Gelmir. She fights with a glintstone staff and casts simple sorceries. When pressed, she flings her staff away and turns into a wild, slamming beast. Her slow recoveries and many weaknesses make her a quick rune reward.

Lore


Demi-human queens tower over common demi-humans. They have long, lanky limbs and canine faces and wear crowns and tattered capes.

Their staves, styled as scepters, were once given to the demi-humans as gifts to foster peace. Even those of low intellect can wield them, though fools at the Academy sneer at them.

Where to find Demi-Human Queen Margot Location?


Volcano Cave, Mt. Gelmir, on the lowest floor at the end of the cave, across the bridge from the Ninth Mt. Gelmir Campsite

Weaknesses


Weak To Slash, Fire, Poison, Scarlet Rot
Immune Madness

Attacks


  • Glintstone Pebble: she raises her staff and fires a lightly tracking shard; dodge sideways or run.
  • Staff Combo: slams, strikes and drags with her staff; roll through each blow and watch for the next.
  • Staff Throw: she shakes, growls and hurls her staff, then fights barehanded with more aggression; the throw itself is weak.
  • Chomp: a lunging bite straight ahead; sidestep and stay at her flank.
  • Fist Slam: she rears up and slams her fists over a wide area; step back or roll toward her.
  • Grab: a lunging grab that can kill if it lands; roll away from her reaching hands.

Tactics


  1. Wait for each combo to end, then counterattack during her long recovery.
  2. Roll toward her and attack from underneath.
  3. Use jumping or heavy attacks to stagger her.
  4. Watch for the grab once she throws away her staff.
  5. Summon a sturdy or multi-spirit Spirit Ash to draw her attention.

Best Builds


Slash, fire, poison or rot

She takes extra damage from slashing and fire, and poison and rot build up quickly.

Physical sorcery and a sturdy spirit

Rock Sling and Hoarfrost Stomp stagger her, and a high-health spirit holds her attention.
