Elden Ring Giant Sleeping Dragon Location and How to Defeat

Updated Date :

The Giant Sleeping Dragon is one of the many bosses you can fight and defeat in Elden Ring. However, this particular boss is quite unique. This is because of the fact that this boss remains inactive during the course of the fight, making for a relatively easy battle. However, before you excitedly leap at the prospect of an easy boss fight, there are some things that you need to know, and this guide will show you exactly just that. Make sure to read this guide right until the end to learn what you need to do to acquire rewards for successfully defeating this boss in Elden Ring.

Where is the Giant Sleeping Dragon in Elden Ring?

To fight and defeat the Giant Sleeping Dragon in Elden Ring, you need to head over to the Fort Faroth Site of Grace. Greyoll is located in Caelid, a dangerous region filled with powerful enemies and brutal environmental hazards. The exact map location is to the south-west of the Minor Erdtree.

Here’s how you can get there:

Travel to the Third Church of Marika in Limgrave. There’s a teleporter near the church that will take you directly to Caelid. You can also progress naturally through Limgrave until you reach the eastern border and find yourself in Caelid.

Once in Caelid, look for a place called Fort Faroth. The giant dragon rests just west of the Fort.

This dragon is a formidable foe, especially early in the game. Consider exploring Caelid and gaining strength before attempting to fight it.

How to Fight and Defeat The Giant Sleeping Dragon?

Once you spot the dragon, you need to move towards it and start attacking it. We recommend you attack the dragon’s wings and legs. Doing so will avoid drawing the attention of the other smaller dragons in the vicinity. When attacking the dragon, you will need to be as patient as possible, because killing it can be a slow process.

If you want to, you can also summon a spirit or use a weapon with a bleeding effect. Doing so will quicken the battle.

After a few minutes of constant attacking, you will slowly notice the dragon dying. Once it does eventually die, you will receive a Dragon Heart as a reward, along with 74,000 Runes.

And that’s about all you need to know about how to fight and defeat The Giant Sleeping Dragon in Elden Ring. As you can see, defeating this boss is quite easy. Just remember to follow the steps in this guide, and you should be good to go!
