How to Summon Eikthyr in Valheim

If you want to summon Eikthyr, you need to find the Summoning Altar. Interact with the Sacrificial stones – the first place that you spawning. After it, the maps will appear and the Summoning Altar mark on it. Now, you can follow our instruction below:
- Hunt Deer

Then, offer the deer trophy on the altar by pressing your Hotbar inventory. In our case, we put it in [3] key. Just wait for a second, Eikthyr will be summoned behind the shining stone.
How to Defeat Eikthyr in Valheim
Make sure you prepare Gears to fight this boss. No need the complicated items, you can defeat Eikthyr with the early game weapon. As our experience, you need a flint spear and a shield. Also, you need the food to bring back your losing health and stamina.
You have to learn some Eikthyr attack patterns so it’s easy to defend and offend. Here’s the explanation:
- Eikthyr will perform a lightning attack when the body is lifted for about 1 second. You can avoid the front of the monster to avoid lightning attacks that strike straight. If so, you can use the arrows to attack him from the side. You can also use this opportunity to do the healing.
- The next attack is a ball of lightning that can strike you from several sides. This attack has the same characteristics as the first one, except that Eikthyr will lift the front of his body for approximately 3 seconds. Move away from the enemy to avoid the lightning ball.
- This one’s a pretty risky attack. Because the monster will chase using its horns to attack you. This is when you can use your Shield in the face of these attacks. Stay where you are and lift your shields until they finally hit. If so, the Stunt will appear on the enemy and carry out an attack using a spear.
This is indeed quite difficult for those of you who just play Valheim. We might be dead more than 5 times the first time we fought this boss deer. Moreover, the boss has more tough in the latest patch, be patient and learn about the pattern
