Omen | Elden Ring Wiki

My favorite punching bags

Submit

That double axe swing is my only complaint about these guys.

Submit

The gang of these in the sewers is my go-to location for testing weapons and builds. Tanky and hard hitting enough to provide a good but fair challenge. If you struggle with them, your setup is probably not viable, but if you plow through the whole bunch with most of your flasks to spare, you're good to go.

Giant Hunt on Heavy Pike.

Submit

having melania/page super hyperarmor on attacks like forward kick, uppercut swing, overhand slap, and it's dive is a little excessive, Fromsoft.

Killed 105 of these suckers and still no warped axe

Submit

105 omen killed and still no Warped axe, anybody ?

Submit

1% drop on the warped axe if you are lucky

Submit

They are weak to parry.

Submit

These guys are completely free with heavy weapons but such a pain with lighter ones. Dex was a mistake

Submit

why are these strong to holy

Submit

These fuckers have longer and more combo than some bossed

Submit

The horns condition is just a side effect from 'Shope papilloma virus'

Submit

I can really see why these bastards were shunned from birth and locked in a sewer.

I've been trying to figure out how to deal with these guys and heavy shield users as a pure INT build, taking notes from the other comments here these guys turn out to be easy to deal with if you just stunlock them with carian piercer. I usually launch one or two heavy damage direct spells and then when they close in just keep knocking them over with piercer. Seems pretty efficient at 42 int 36 mind with 6 cerulean flasks, I can deal with all 7 by the underground roadside grace and still have flasks left over for further delving. A couple of the omens deeper in need some tactical retreating but if you line-of-sight them so they can't use their ranged on you while closing they get really easy to deal with.

On top of that they take a few hits from St Trina's Sword and fall asleep, but remember if they sleep mid-grab animation they will come out of sleep and continue the animation, had one quick-turn on me and grab me after they got slept.

Submit

suppose dung eater armor + the mask you get from the rivers of blood invader would sort of make you look like an omen.

Submit

heavies and jump attacks are your best friends fighting these guys, only their leap attack, punches, and kicks have hyperarmor, keep up the pressure on their stance and you can go for a crit pretty quickly.

alot of their attacks are slow enough for you to get a heavy attack off, you can interrupt their grab with a jumping heavy (mostly foolproof but it can bug out and awkwardly grab you the moment the stun is over).

the butt slam attack doesn't have hyperarmor, you can hit them in their air if your weapon has range and they'll fall to the ground where you can get some bonus damage.

particularly light weapons are balls against these guys, if you're using daggers or thrusting swords you're gonna have a bad time unless you know their moveset well or know their backstab openings. heavier weapons will smoke them easily, but still be careful of their hyperarmor attacks.

Submit

Thought these would be the typical “big and slow, make sure to dodge” enemy. Suddenly, the lumbering clod leaps into action and starts performing martial arts on me, all the while swinging a machete around like it’s a fly swatter.

Submit

Thank you Grafted Blade, you big ugly mama. Finally helped me knock these mugs around enough to no longer have to question how they’re so lithe.

Submit

Their kicks and uppercuts give them enough hyperarmor to poise through a fully charged two handed heavy from the greatsword weapon class. Actually absurd.

Submit

People say they are reskins of harald knights of ds3. Man, they have almost entirely different moveset with kicking and punching attacks that are parryable on top of that. Everyone also forgets that omens have axe variant and harald knights only wield curved greatswords.

Submit

HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN THE SUBTERRANEAN SHUNNING GROUNDS. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED GRACE IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY ELDEN RING. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR OMENS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.

Submit

using magma guillotine combo in the sewer will killed this fat bastard

Submit

The one in Stormveil Castle cheats the perfect parry status, and kills you during the animation.

Submit

Watching them climb ladders is hilarious

Submit

the poise god himself i swear man even after 1.5k hours these guys still give me a hard time because they like to randomly decide to have 9999 poise during a combo only to get staggered by a fart after

Submit

the boys have seen every WWE match to date

Submit

Instant cure for constipation, especially when encountered in catacombs or other ill-lit areas. Parp!

Submit

The h0rny ones wielding omen cleavers are so boring. They use omen bairn when get close to them and vomit wraiths when are at mid to far distance. I keep running and approaching all the time, they ask you to use long ranged attacks or go full boink mode.

Submit

Are you willing to train parry? Use these guys. The one in Stormveil Castle is the weakest and those in the sewers are bosses. The banished knight in Caelid dragon communion church is good too.

Submit

The best way to test new weapons and damage in the game. 7 of them can be found in the shunning grounds right outside the grace with over 6000 Hp each.

Submit

Their lack of defence is supported by their massive health pool. These things are the Guzzlord of Elden Ring.

Submit

what ending should i pick i want these things to die in the most miserable and widespread way possible, asking for a friend (also i am not marika)

Submit

I swear these things also have lightning resist, they are tanky boys to that sh*

Submit

They are quite easy with Moonveil unsheathe skill.

Submit

How do you defeat it?

Submit

They deserve being persecuted for being so ugly

Submit

there's actually another type of horned omen with more horns than normal, idk how many of them there are, but i know that one of them is at the end of the main corridor in the shunning grounds to the right from the grace, right after the rising gate that is opened by a lever.

Submit

The Omens in The Sewer have 70 poise.

Submit

its funny because these guys are a pretty big difficult spike for when you first get to the altus sewer where a lot of them are at, which makes sense. But then I came back to the area to test some weapon damage/ ash of wars stuff wayyyyy over leveled for leyndell in general (already went through snowfield and haligtree) and these fat bastards made me think my build was doing trash damage and then I realized they had 6500 hp, what the actual **** lol

Submit

These are the kind of enemy I don't like to kill when I know the lore, but I turn into HitIer mode after being murdered many times by them. Now I kill every omen and 2nd gen albinauric I see. I still love the jellyfishes because they are peaceful; I feel bad when I have to kill them.
These fat orcs are faster than Bruce Lee, they are heavy when hit you but light when they move. I hate their karate kicks and their grab attacks that show their lack of affection, they just wanna hug, "oh, a new friend! Let's play a little. Hoo yaaah! I kicked you, hehe, now... come on, don't be ashamed, let me hug you. Good friend... oh, no, no... he died, I killed my new friend... I am really a monster, I accept my fate, I deserve to live in the sewers, I cannot even make a new friend for long. Marika, why did you let us live instead of killing us all?".

Submit

funny these things would probably be worshipped and treated like royalty in the shadow realm, too bad those hornsent mfs got genocided

Submit

These guys are probably the easiest enemies to parry in the game, you just can’t parry their kicks. So if you’re tempted to learn how to do it, these guys are a good entry point.

Submit

going through the subterranian shunning grounds makes me wish the omenkillers had done a better job cause these shits will just drain all your flasks if you cant hitless them. and the subterranian shunning grounds are already bad enough without them

Submit

Erm, the holy resist seems to be a mistake

Submit

i had a 500 AR weapon and was doing like 200 damage, thought maybe standard was resistant or lightning but it turns out theres 0 resistance, im at a loss whats going on, think maybe the info on the page is wrong

Submit

Soooo now that we know the hornsent are a thing. Are omens in fact hornsent descendants?

Submit

Inflicting scarlet rot heals them for some reason

Submit

Incredibly annoying sacks of HP but thankfully all their attacks are parryable, even the punches and kicks. Kinda like crucible knights just carry a shield with a parry ash or the buckler so you don't have to deal with carving through their brick wall of health.

Submit

Eww ugly, golden order did nothing wrong, send them to the camps

Submit

These MMA heavyweight champions are fun to 1v1

Submit

850lb enemy with the stamina of David Goggins....

Submit

Morgott took me less attempts than these shits

Submit

Was messing around and figured out this is one of VERY few enemies that the first hit of the Godslayer’s Greatsword “can” stun long enough to get the full AOW off. Use Shadow Bait for a free backstab and wake them up with style. One more attack and they’re done if that didn’t do the trick.

Submit

Okay, I did the testing, both hand uppercut and the downward slap are parryable.

Submit

They're pretty easy to parry and backstab. Not laughably easy, I've had a plenty of missed backstabs, but still easy.
Light roll is both a detriment and an advantage, it does helps with circling them but sometimes it takes you too far and you end up being unable to get the backstab. If they do the grab and you're up close, try to circle them and backstab when they whiff.
Buckler parry works just fine most of the time, but cleaver omens have this one attack that makes them slightly back away, which makes it hard\impossible to parry with a buckler, so you might want to use golden parry since it removes that problem. I would say that cleaver omens are overally harder to parry than axe omens. On a side note, the hand uppercut is parryable, and rather easy at that. I don't know if this is intended or an oversight, but I'm not going to complain lol. I can't say if the downward slap is parryable, didn't tested, but I can confirm that you can't parry kicks.

Submit

God i LOVE delayed grabs

Submit

These guys are fun to fight, they have a cool flowing moveset that feels so satisfying to dodge

Submit

Inexplicably immune to catacomb fire traps

Submit

Rune farming three of these guys at the Abandoned Coffin (Altus Plateau) using Executioner's Axe works very well for me.

Submit

Nimble as **** for no reason

Submit

I have killed so many of these while waiting to be summoned I don't even have to think about what I need to do, I just do it.
Axe bois:
[ heavies to stun do not work with anything smaller than a standard sword, and some recovery times of this enemy are very quick so they may hyper armor through]
1.) breath- you can literally just run to the right behind them and backstab them
2.) kick (not during combo)- roll past to the right and backstab (you can also run to the right past them for the backstab)
3.) side to side [likes to spam] (chains into combo)- dodge back to the right and heavy to cancel combo follow up
4.) jump (any)- just walk past them and backstab if you start close enough (give yourself enough room so they land and miss)
5.) hand uppercut- roll past to the right and backstab (again)
6.) downwards slap [uncommon]- very fast recovery, so maybe just roll and attack once
7.) weird traveling sweep uppercut thing into breath- if you notice this fast enough you can strafe back and roll backwards and be right behind for a backstab
8.) if they start the charge grab- heavy to stun (uncharged) [sometimes animation cancels if stunned in the later half of the charge, and grabs you anyway]
!.) bonus tip for lighter weapons- be a bit passive, it makes it easier to see the animation start ups so you know what you can and can't do
X.) There's a few more but I don't remember off the top of my head so good enough, I don't think anyone is struggling so much with the axe bois that they come here for advice but, if you are and you learned something then I'm happy to help.

Submit

No matter what anyone says, I hate those omens

Submit

F these guys.

Submit

of all the enemies the game tries and fails to make you feel bad for in lore, these guys are the sole exception with the existence of omenkillers, the ones in altus having nightmares and being able to barley sleep, most having their horns excised which usually kills them and the one in front of the grave that has the omen bairn :(

Submit

Can the one's in the Shunning grounds be parried?

Submit

Mutants of elden ring

Submit

Don't get the hate, these guys look really cool and have such a cool moveset. One of my favorite enemies by far.

Submit

Only thing I've gotta say is...why does the Axe one have hitstrings longer than some Marvel vs Capcom combos?

Submit

got killed by one because he hyper armored my giant hunt
i just love this broken garbage of a game

Submit

There's not much Bloodborne in Elden Ring, but I wonder if these guys are based on BB's Executioners. Similar proportions, and possibly a similar somersault attack?

Submit

these enemies are like everything I don't like about Dark Souls 3's enemy design. Big, tanky, unnaturally fast, random attack chains and they have swooping ballerina slashes with deceptively long range and they drain your stamina really fast on block. it's fine if they're sparce but the subterranian shaming grounds and leyendel catacombs are infested with them, at least give them less HP

Submit

Why do they have SO MANY hp? Salp a health bar on the screen and they can just be a catacombs boss with no problem.

Submit

I hope we can see them absolutely wreck Golden Knights. Their lore is very sad

Submit

Scarlet rot seems to heal these guys?
Was Testing Powestanced Rotten Staffs in Underground Roadside, Leyndell and their HP was ticking up after being inflicted with Scarlet Rot.

Submit

As bullshit as their actual resistances are to me the best ways to deal with them were bleed + frost procs. I used a powerstanced curved sword build, other being frost and other being bleed. Spamming jumping attacks builds up the procs fast and the procs stun it.

Other option would be high poise ashes of war such as lion claw.

Submit

thank god they have weapons. If they were just kickboxing, theyd be really op i think

Submit

My last comment got deleted somehow but I'll repeat it: try whips on the omen if you're having trouble with them. I mostly used urumi but it poise breaks them consistently (barring hyperarmored attacks) so you can stop most attacks and control the fight.

Submit

Dexbros, try using whips against these guys. I've only tried out the urumi and normal whip so far but they poise break nearly everything they do apart from their hyperarmor moves. Having an Ash like Storm Stomp so you can poise break attacks when they get a bit too close and use the stagger window to get distance helps too. You can poise break them out of their grab wind up with whips or storm stomp, roll at them during a breath attack and storm stomp them out of their next breath attack. Group fights are still iffy but whips trivialize them 1v1.

Submit

Wait...are you guys not just bonking these guys?!

Submit

Fighting these a-holes made me come to the conclusion that the golden order wasn't harsh enough.

Submit

why does bro have as much hp as goldfrey

Submit

**** omens

Submit

braces both legs to swing sword: easy to stun

stands on one leg to kick: hard to stun

makes sense

Submit

stun lock with colossal sword pokes and roll the kicks/punches

Submit

Wait, yall have issues with these guys?

Submit

These guys are bullshit. They have zero weaknesses.

Submit

As others have said, easiest way to kill literally any version of these including the duo boss fight is to put Lion's Claw on a weapon and chain them to oblivion. You can get this ash very early, and if you don't run a strike weapon as your primary then you probably have a hammer or flail lying around for stone enemies and this goes great with those weapons. Heck you may want it for your primary weapon anyways, Lion's Claw is a pretty good ash all around. Personally went from "WTF THESE DUDES ARE CRAZY" to "Wow very ded much enjoy" based solely on that ash.

Submit

One of my favorite enemies. Very reminiscent of the Herald Legion Knights. But has some moves from DarkWraiths too (Their kicks)

Submit

WHY DO THEIR KICKS HAVE HYPERARMOUR

Submit

If you have the Dex for it, I find that the best way to deal with these guys is to run Morgott's Cursed Sword in your primary hand and another large weapon in your secondary hand. Using the weapon skill a few times should be enough to poise-break them without taking more than one hit of damage, sometimes they bleed but we're going for poise-break at minimum, trust me they'll bleed one way or another. Once they're down simply jump attack and that should keep them stun locked until they die.
I understand that people here see dex and think "cringe" but with enemies like these the best way to kill them before they kill you is to attack as hard and as fast as possible.

Submit

Fell like I die to the ones in the sewers more than any boss

Submit

What is with the grab attack? They can grab you OUT OF A ROLL. Mid roll I get grabbed and there goes 80% of my health, broken as hell enemy to be paced as frequently as a 1k hp trash mob plus their hyperarmor. Isn't staggering or rolling the ONLY way to avoid a grab since you can't block? From needs to get it together.

Submit

Have you noticed that in Altus Plateau a couple of them are cloaked and can cast Death Mist?
One is located below the lesser Erdtree in the Capital Outskirts, the other one is in Auriza Tomb.
The latter is located in a secluded room, guarding a crucible talisman and apparently praying at the feet of a statue of a woman wielding a spear entwined with a vine.
I wonder who is the woman, and why those cloaked Omens can even cast such incantations...

Submit

Hyper armor fatty's that are faster then they should be

Submit

**** those bastards

Submit

So these guys are born to normal humans and just happen to be unlucky? And then the parents just kill them off? Wtf?

Submit

They climb now

Submit

These guys can be annoying to fight in the Shunning Grounds with the usual glinstone pebbles and comets because those sorceries don't stagger them, but sorceries like Rock Sling, Carian Greatsword, Carian Piercer, Magma Shot, etc can stagger them as long as they aren't in one of their hyperarmor animations. Carian Piercer is especially good, fully charged it knocks omens on their ass and can usually keep them in a loop as long as the player has stamina and fp.
