Location

The boss resides in Limgrave, more specifically in the Highroad Cave.

Reward for defeating

For defeating the Guardian Golem, you will receive the Blue Dancer Charm and 1700 Runes.

General tips

1. Fighting the boss is no different from fighting standard golems.
2. His weak point is his legs. Attack them to be able to knock down the boss and deal a critical hit.
3. The boss has a considerable attack range, and the arena is not very large. Stay close to him - that way you will avoid most of his attacks.
4. You can use Spirit ashes in this fight. We advise you to use a more durable one, for example Jellyfish.

How to defeat?

Once you enter the arena, the boss will be lying down, so you can use various buffs or summon Spirit ashes before approaching him. When you're ready, quickly run up to him and start attacking his legs.

Focus mainly on one leg because if you hit it several times, the boss will fall over, and you will have a chance of a critical hit by approaching his chest.

However, don't stand under his feet for too long because then he will switch his attacks to different ones that target anything under his feet. Once he stops attacking, you have plenty of time to approach and attack his legs again. Repeat this pattern until the boss dies.
