Elden Ring has set the bar so high with their boss fights, taking things straight to multiple duo and trio bosses. The Crystalians epitomise the former and the latter perfectly, and they're getting tougher the further you venture into The Lands Between. Found largely in caves, the Crystalians are known for their beautiful, intricate crystalline bodies, which also serve as a challenge for the lowly Tarnished.

With considerable defensive capabilities due to their resilient outer shells, the Crystalians are certainly foes not to be underestimated. Thus, we have crafted a sweeping outline of how to defeat all Crystalian bosses found in the game.
You can find Crystalian bosses in four different locations throughout The Lands Between. Each time, you'll face a Crystalian that wields a different weapon from the one previously. First, you may face the Ringblade Crystalian solo, before it upgrades into a duo boss fight, eventually skyrocketing to the Putrid Crystalians in Sellia Hideaway in north-eastern Caelid.
Take note that you require a Stonesword Key to access the Academy Crystal Cave, which is east of the Crystalline Woods Site of Grace and is below Raya Lucaria Academy.
The entrance to Sellia Hideaway is also hidden. Starting from the Church of the Plague Site of Grace, head up the hill where you'll eventually find a cemetery. Hit the rock wall behind it and the entrance will appear. As the Crystalians have tough armour, melee builds certainly have the advantage over this boss, as katanas and heavy weapons like greatswords are highly efficient against them.
You will encounter various Crystalians armed with a variety of different weapons: spears, staffs, and ringblades.
