What reward do you get for defeating the Full-Grown Fallingstar Beast in Elden Ring?

Big boss fights are integral to FromSoft's unique brand of action RPGs, and Elden Ring has continued the trend with great success. Countless massive enemy encounters contain some of the franchise's best gameplay moments.

The Full-Grown Fallingstar Beast is an optional boss who awaits the player on one of the peaks of Mt. Gelmir. It's a massive bull that will charge the player furiously on sight and comes with a variety of devastating attacks.

The Full-Grown Fallingstar Beast, not to be confused with its smaller counterpart, drops weapons, cash, and items for killing it. Though players are free to simply outrun the beast, Elden Ring will reward the player handsomely.

First, the Full-Grown Fallingstar Beast will grant the player 21,000 runes for its defeat. That's a heavy payout, at least early in Elden Ring, but there are certainly faster ways to make more cash.

The beast also drops a Somber Smithing Stone and five Smithing Stones [6]. The former can be used to improve unique weapons, while the latter will heavily improve normal weapons. Both of these will come in handy, because finding a place to buy Smithing Stones can be tough.

Finally, the beast drops its jaw as a cool new weapon. The Fallingstar Beast Jaw is a Colossal Weapon that requires 34 strength to wield. It deals a great deal of physical damage with its many attacks. It comes with a unique Skill called Gravity Bolt, which calls down a bolt of lightning to damage foes. It's a good weapon if the player has the build for it.

Elden Ring provides its players with plenty of options, one of which, in this case, is to simply run away. Players are free to pass up the rewards and sprint past the beast, but it isn't the toughest boss in the game.

Build makes a huge difference
