How to Prepare for the Valheim’s The Elder Boss Fight
The Elder Boss can be challenging for new players, but he also exists to serve a valuable lesson: some bosses are weak to certain attacks. In The Elder’s case, his weakness is fire.
Fighting The Elder in melee is doable, but at this stage of the game, it’s much easier to shoot him from a distance with a Bow. That is doubly true because of his weakness to Fire — craft a bunch of Fire Arrows and you’ll be able to kill him much faster. Crafting a total of 200 Fire Arrows per player should be more than enough to win the fight (and fend off any other enemies in the area, too).
You’ll also want to prepare the area a bit. Dig some pits or trenches that you can dive into to avoid his ranged attacks. Just make sure you can get back out, too — the Roots he can summon can beat you up pretty badly if you can’t get away from them!

The Elder Boss is extremely weak to Fire in Valheim. Use Fire Arrows to rapidly reduce his health.

How to Beat the Valheim Elder Boss Solo
Defeating the Valheim Elder Boss isn’t as easy as the first boss Eikthyr. You can definitely fight in melee range, but you’re probably going to take some hits. That’s why I opted to fight at long ranges using a Bow. As a bonus, The Elder moves pretty slowly; it’s very easy to pelt him with arrows from a safe distance.
The Elder largely uses three attacks. He’ll stomp if you’re in melee range and it’s pretty easy to dodge this. If you’re at medium range, he’ll summon some Roots that surround and attack you; use your axe to quickly chop these down and run out of the area. At long range, he’ll shoot a bunch of vines at you in a wide cone.
The projectile vines attack is the biggest danger here and why preparing cover in advance is a good idea. It does a fair amount of damage to you (even with armor), but it also can destroy Trees (which can fall down and land on you for even more damage).
Stay at range and keep shooting arrows at The Elder until he’s dead. Other enemies in the world can join the fight, too, so be careful not to aggro any of them. Once he’s defeated, you’ll be ready to move on to the next biome.
