Elden Ring Obsession With Rot Builds Is Peaking
Elden Ring Putrescent Knight Location: Where to Find the Rotting Horror is a roaming boss in Limgrave. This walking corpse spreads blight, drops potent Rotting materials, and fits chaotic infection builds.
Tracking The Decaying Boss
He appears at random, but follows a loose path near Church of Elleh in Limgrave. Research shows he cycles between fog gates around 18:00 in game time, so timing your hunt helps.
