How to Beat Tibia Mariner in Elden Ring
Even if the Tibia Mariner looks a tad intimidating, it is just a red herring. Players should worry more about the allies that it summons as they can be more dangerous. Sure, the Tibia Mariner may throw so ranged attacks at you, but they are usually telegraphed ahead of time and can be avoided with distance or a good roll.
Start by inflicting as much damage as possible to the boss, and once it starts summoning allies, it will make a quick getaway. Look around and check out the surroundings, you should be able to spot the Tibia Mariner surrounded by its skeletal friends.
Kill them all, be sure to put them down permanently by hitting them when a blue aura surrounds their body, and focus on the Tibia Mariner again. Once you whittle down its health, you will earn yourself a good bump in runes as well as a Deathroot and the Skeletal Militiaman Ashes.
