After defeating Commander Niall, take a look at ourElden Ring walkthroughto see where you should head next.
Below, you could watch our guides editor, Ollie, fight Commander Niall.
Fortunately, there are a few items you’re able to get to help with this.

To boost your lightning damage negation even further, use a Lightningproof Dried Liver.
Many of these will deal huge damage, socome prepared with heavy armor.
Consider using one of these so that you might tank through any enemy combos that land during this fight.

If you use heavy attacks, you might even manage to stagger this spirit.
Once it is staggered, move to its front and perform a visceral by using a light attack.
This will deal massive damage and hopefullykill the dual-sword spirit before it can get involved in the fight.

Since the dual-sword spirit deals more damage, that’s the one you should kill here.
Commander Niall is rather weak during his first phase, which usually lasts until he reaches half health.
When he reaches half health, the shield spirit will disappear and Niall will gain some new moves.
If Commander Niall raises his leg, this indicates that he is about to use a lightning attack.
Niall also has another move during which he leaps into the air and slams down to the ground.
you’re free to avoid this by running to the side and rolling when he hits the ground.
Aside from the lightning-based attacks, Niall also uses some frostbite moves.
This will unleash a cloud that deals frostbite damage to anything in the nearby vicinity.
Likewise, Niall will occasionally turn away and start drawing in this frosty cloud.
Strike patiently between Niall’s attacks and you should slowly whittle his health down until he dies.
