As Caelid is located east of Limgrave, many Elden Ring players mistake it to be the next area after defeating Godrick the Grafted. Unfortunately, Caelid is full of powerful monsters and bosses that’ll surely cause issues and quickly change players' minds into finding the real next area after Limgrave.

After the final duel between Starscourge Radahn and Malenia in Elden Ring, Caelid was infected with Scarlet Rot and became inhabited by the undead monsters. Because of the region’s harsh environment, locating and fighting all its bosses may seem like an arduous task for Tarnished.
Updated on June 6, 2023, by Nahda Nabiilah: Caeild Bosses are known to be more difficult than the normal ones since the region is infested with Scarlet Rot. Some bosses in Caelid even inflict Rot which makes matters even worse if players aren’t prepared. Only brave Tarnished dares to enter this dangerous Region and fight all Caeild Bosses to loot their drops and Runes. Additionally, even though Caeild is considered a mid to late-game area, there are a couple of powerful early weapons and upgrade materials players can collect to get a head start on the early-game bosses.
All Caelid Bosses Locations And Drops In Elden Ring
Caelid is considerably smaller than all the other regions, which is why it can only be split into two sections; Dragonbarrow and Main Caelid.
