Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree adds a lot of cool new bosses, but none of them compare to Bayle the Dread, who is arguably the best Dragon boss in the entire Soulsborne series; better than Midir for me. However, he is also one of the hardest bosses in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, with a very aggressive attack pattern and high damage output with most attacks. So, if you're struggling, here's a guide on how to find and beat Bayle the Dread in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree.

Aside from the Bayle the Dread boss fight, the path leading up to the fight is a spectacle in itself. Bayle the Dread is located in the Jagged Peaks. This means that you must first get to the Jagged Peaks by defeating the Ancient Dragon Man in the Dragon's Pit and then reach the top of the Jagged Peaks. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to reach Bayle the Dread:

Bayle the Dread takes very little damage to his body, making his health bar look massive unless you know his weaknesses. Here's how you can gain an advantage in battle by exploiting Bayle the Dread's weaknesses:

Bayle the Dread is the best and hardest dragon fight in the Soulsborne series (in my opinion). Many of his moves are similar to Darkeater Midir from Dark Souls 3, but well, elevated to another level.
