Elden Ring Lhutel the Headless Guide

• Upgrades with Ghost Gloveworts.
• Lhutel will periodically teleport while in combat, allowing her to move around quickly, avoid being surrounded by enemies, and avoid large area of effect attacks from enemies.
• Strikes from her lance cause buildup of the death blight status on her target. However, the vast majority of enemies found in Elden Ring are immune to death blight. Also, one of the main enemy types not immune to death blight, that being NPC invaders, tend to only appear in areas where the player is not able to summon her or any other spirits via spirit ashes. (Note, as of 1.08 this may prove a bit more viable within the Caelid Coliseum wherein you can summon Lhutel or other Spirit Ashes to do battle versus other players.)
• Her heavy armor, greatshield, teleportation ability, mix of melee and ranged attacks, and immunity against all status effects (an ability shared with all other spirit ash spirits) allow her to work well alongside a variety of player builds as a "tank" or damage dealer. It should be noted that due to her slow attack frequency and teleporting around that she holds aggro very poorly.
• NOTE: Patch 1.13 Will no longer stagger as easily. Increased physical attack power and damage negation against physical attacks.
