Battle Strategies

  • Margit's Shackle (from Patches) stuns him twice in phase 1 — massive advantage
  • His delayed attacks are designed to punish panic rolls — wait for the actual swing
  • Stay at medium range; too close and his dagger combos catch you, too far and he leaps
  • In phase 2, his hammer has longer reach — adjust your spacing
  • Roll INTO his attacks rather than away to end up behind him
  • Use Lone Wolf Ashes to split his aggro

Best Builds for Margit, the Fell Omen

These builds exploit Margit, the Fell Omen's weaknesses and match the fight's demands.

Reduvia Bleed B-Tier Arcane/Dexterity

Reduvia's ranged blood blades let you apply bleed from a safe distance. Margit's low bleed resistance means frequent hemorrhage procs.

Bloodhound's Fang B-Tier Quality (Str/Dex)

Bloodhound's Finesse gives you a built-in dodge-attack that perfectly counters Margit's delayed swings. Available before the fight.

Blasphemous Blade S-Tier Strength/Faith

If you've leveled enough, Taker's Flames has the range and damage to trivialize this fight. The HP on kill helps sustain.

Dual Katana A-Tier Dexterity

Fast bleed buildup from powerstanced katanas melts Margit. L1 attacks proc hemorrhage in 3-4 hits.

Builds to Avoid Against Margit, the Fell Omen

These archetypes struggle in this fight. Consider respeccing if you're stuck.

Dragon Communion B-Tier Faith/Arcane

Dragon breath incantations have long cast times that Margit will punish. His holy resistance also reduces some incantation damage.

Comet Azur A-Tier Intelligence

You won't have the setup for the Comet Azur combo this early, and Margit's aggression doesn't give casting windows for slow sorceries.
