Summary
Although there are plenty of mini-bosses scattered through the base game ofElden Ringand throughout Shadow of the Erdtree, they are not true bosses. In order to be a true boss, your opponent needs to have a boss health bar.
It needs to take up the bottom of the screen so, no matter where you are, so long as you’re fighting, you get to see just how much danger you’re really in. With the edition of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, more mini-bosses and bosses were added to the game, which means you’re going to be fighting for your life much more often than you may expect.
Elden Ring’s Base Game Has 165 Bosses
If you’re trying to 100 percent Elden Ring, then you better have a lot of confidence in your skills as the Tarnished, because it won’t be easy.165 True Bosses are scattered around the Lands Betweenand while some might be difficult to find, others you might end up accidentally stumbling upon.
If those 185 True Bosses weren’t dangerous enough,there are also 73 mini-bosses that you can come across. In total, that puts the base game of Elden Ring at238 bosses.
Elden Ring Has 13 Mandatory Bosses
Of that plethora of bosses,only 13 of them are actually necessary to beat the game. That doesn’t mean you can easily avoid the other 152, but it is feasible if you know what you’re doing. To ensure that you only go up against the 13 Mandatory True Bosses, make sure that you have a solid pathing and strategy devised before you plunge into the chaos that is the Lands Between.

Shadow Of The Erdtree Has Over 40 Named Bosses
The main bosses in Shadow of the Erdtree, although hardly the only bosses are the only ones that provide Remembrance. Whilethere are 40 total named bosses, including mini-bossesonly 11 bosses will drop Remembrance.
Whether you’ll get Remembrance or not, though, it’s worth putting your life (and well-being) on the line for a bit to see what the DLC has in store. With expansions on character stories (notably one of the base game’s bosses), it’s a haven for those of you who love Elden Ring’s lore and battle mechanics.
There Are 11 Main Bosses In Shadow Of The Erdtree
Of all the bosses, there are 11 that you will need to go through during the DLC. Depending on your build, some could be easier to get through while others may require multiple tries. Though, be honest with yourself, the chances of needing multiple tries are probably higher than not.
