Ever wondered about the current lineup for Elden Ring Nightreign’s Everdark Sovereign challenges? As if the core Nightreign experience wasn’t intense enough, the creators have introduced a compelling new system: certain Night Lords are now significantly empowered at the conclusion of each expedition. The treasures you can claim from defeating these formidable foes are game-changing, offering unique rewards that can drastically redefine your character builds. This is a challenge well worth undertaking if you aim to truly master the game and elevate your power.
These exceptionally powerful Elden Ring Nightreign bosses follow a rotating weekly schedule. If you aspire to defeat them all, seize the opportunity while it lasts! These special Nightreign events, part of the acclaimed co-op game, are currently a limited-time offering, though the developers at FromSoftware have hinted at making them a permanent fixture in the future.
Current Everdark Sovereign Event Schedule
Here are the current and upcoming Elden Ring Nightreign Everdark Sovereign events:
- Augur & Equilibrious Beast: September 17 – September 24
- Tricephalos & Sentient Pest: September 24 – October 1
- Gaping Jaw & Fissure in the Fog: October 1 – October 8
Understanding Deep of Night
Deep of Night serves as Nightreign’s ultimate challenge mode, designed for only the most skilled players. Unlike standard expeditions where you choose your Nightlord target, Deep of Night conceals this information until the final day, making it tricky to strategize for specific weaknesses. Moreover, the Shifting Earth event will remain a mystery until you’re actively playing through it.
Adding to the difficulty, you might face the Everdark Sovereign Nightlords at the culmination of your run. Not only are standard enemies tougher, but the gear you discover can now come with detrimental effects. Imagine finding a powerful rare weapon, only to realize it reduces your maximum health when you’re poisoned.
However, you’re not left without tools. You gain access to three brand-new Relic slots, each capable of housing Deep of Night-exclusive power-ups. These new Relics provide dual effects, significantly boosting your builds, especially when creatively synergized with your current presets.
Everdark Sovereign Events: What to Expect
Starting from June 19, one of the seven Night Lords will be featured in a special Everdark Sovereign expedition at the Roundtable Hold for one week. These expeditions are mostly familiar, but the crucial difference lies on the final day, where you’ll face an immensely upgraded Night Lord.
Observations from the Everdark Sovereign Gaping Jaw Night Lord indicate that this boss starts directly in its second phase, unleashing entirely new area-of-effect attacks to amplify the challenge. While this might be specific to the Gaping Jaw, the Everdark Sovereign variants typically retain the same core weaknesses as their regular counterparts. Therefore, by focusing on exploiting its vulnerabilities—such as applying poison effects against the Gaping Jaw—your fundamental battle strategy should still hold true.
Unlocking Everdark Sovereign Events
To participate in any Everdark Sovereign event, your primary step is to defeat the standard version of the featured Night Lord. We strongly advise vanquishing all seven Night Lords to guarantee full access to both present and future Everdark Sovereign challenges.
Exclusive Everdark Sovereign Rewards
Conquering the Everdark Sovereign bosses yields valuable Sovereign Sigils, a special currency you can use to acquire potent Elden Ring Nightreign Relics, Relic Rites, and character skins. While the Relics and Rites are unique to a new vendor, the available skins are identical to those found at the mirror, offering the convenience of spending Sovereign Sigils instead of your precious Murk.
Furthermore, the vendor at Roundtable Hold’s Collector Signboard provides the option to manually trigger Shifting Earth events, granting access to zones almost certain to contain valuable items. While this might seem less critical at first glance, it will prove indispensable when facing future Everdark Sovereign Night Lords, especially when precise targeting of their weaknesses is required.
Additionally, you can utilize the ‘Alter Great Site of Grace’ option to toggle between its radiant and shadowed forms at Roundtable Hold, albeit at the cost of one Sovereign Sigil. Lastly, the ‘Give Cracked Witch’s Brooch’ option, priced at three Sovereign Sigils, allows you to restore the Relic to its pristine appearance. Keep in mind this is a purely cosmetic change and doesn’t affect the Relic’s function, so it might be wise to prioritize other purchases if your Sigil count is low.
That covers everything you need to know about the thrilling Elden Ring Nightreign Everdark Sovereign events for now. We’ll be diligently updating this guide with new boss schedules as they become available.
