Everything you need to know about the best Duchess build and Relics for Everdark Tricephalos in Elden Ring Nightreign.
Everdark Tricephalos is one of the most challenging bosses in Elden Ring Nightreign, simply due to the sheer damage it can dish out. Regardless of yourVigoranddamage mitigationpassives, Tricephalos can one-shot you if you let the boss stackattack upbuffs. At the same time, Tricephalos, i.e.,Gladius, Beast of Night, is very weak to elemental damage, specificallyHoly. Stacking Holy damage can help you easily break through Glaidus’s defenses and deal a ton of damage to the boss.
However, given the agility of the new Nightfarer, stacking affinity damage on it is easier said than done. This is where Duchess and herRestageskill come into play. With an optimized Relics loadout, you’re able to easily overpower Tricephalos with the Duchess. Here’s a comprehensive guide on the best Duchess build for Everdark Tricephalos in Elden Ring Nightreign.

Overview of the Best Duchess Build in Elden Ring Nightreign
Usually, we prefer to stack a few dedicated survivability passives for most of our Nightfarer builds. However, when faced against Gladius, that’s not going to be of much help. Regardless of how many damage negation passives you stack, Gladius can still one-shot most Nightfarers with its AOE attacks. As such, we’re going to focus primarily on damage buffs, and more importantly, affinity damage buffs. For the Duchess build, we went withCaligo’s Relic, which appliesFrost. Furthermore, we also recommend using a Relic that grants your starting armamentBleedstatus.
That way, you can stack both Frost and Bleed on the boss. Additionally, make sure to bringCharacter Skill cooldown reductionpassives as well. Duchess’sArcanescaling, as well as her Restage skill, is going to help a lot against Gladius. We also recommend using aHolyweapon in your off-hand, preferably a Dagger. Furthermore, while it’s not necessary, we do recommend usingAugur’sRelic for a bit of survivability, which will help onDay 1andDay 2.
