Eikthyr or Eikthyrnir is the first boss in Valheim that players can summon by sacrificing Deer trophies. It makes sense because this boss is a huge, aggressive Stag with electric antlers and chains around it. Here’s how to defeat Eikthyr in Valheim.

The Elder

The second boss of Valheim is The Elder who looks like a ferocious version of Groot from the Marvel Universe. You can summon him by burning three ancient seeds at the altar in the Black Forest. In the fire bowl at the altar, you will see a rune stone that says ‘Burn their Young’. The Elder also summons some Roots that can deal damage if you get too close. Check out how to beat The Elder in our boss fight guide.

Bonemass

To summon the Bonemass boss, you have to use 10 Wither Bones at the skull altar that is present in the swamp. This boss looks like slime but not the cute kind. Bonemass is very powerful and you will need Iron Maces to make it happen. Plus, you need Poison Resistance Mead as well. Check out how to defeat Bonemass in our guide.

Moder

The Moder boss is a Dragon-like enemy (Wyvern) and you can summon her with 3 Dragon Eggs and putting them in the altar in the Mountain biome. This big black dragon has white hair and black scales and she can fly and land whenever she wants. Interestingly, Moder translates to Mother. Here’s how to defeat the Moder boss in the game.

Yagluth

Another boss you can summon is Yagluth and he is a big skeleton with the upper half which makes for his entire body. You can summon this creature with five fuling totems. You need to put them in the altar in the Plains biome.

So these are all the known Valheim bosses and how to summon them all. We will be going more into detail about these bosses in separate guides so be sure to check them out.
