In Elden Ring Nightreign, you might come across a tricky enemy called the Sentient Pest while you’re exploring or running through the game. There’s a way to fight back, recover your lost levels, and even gain some powerful rewards to help you level up faster. Here’s a simple guide on how to deal with these invading pests.
How to Deal with Invading Pests and Recover Lost Levels
The Sentient Pest is a tricky enemy that can show up during your run and cause some real trouble. It sends out little pests that follow you around and steal your levels. To get them back, you’ll need to chase these pests and find where the Sentient Pest is hiding then take it down in a boss fight.
Defeating the Sentient Pest will give you back all the levels it stole, along with a big chunk of runes. You’ll also unlock a powerful dormant ability called “Integration of Intelligence.” This passive effect gives you a chance to earn runes every time you land an attack, making it easier to level up faster in future runs.
How to Defeat the Invading Pests
Keep an eye on the sky to see which way the locusts are flying they’ll lead you right to the Sentient Pest. When you get close, look for a blue glow nearby. That’s where the Sentient Pest is hiding. It has a boss health bar, but don’t worry, it won’t fight back much, so taking it down is pretty easy.
This invading pest only comes with one type of enemy the Moth. These Moths can spit poisonous mist at you and also lead locusts that steal your levels, which lowers your damage and health. But don’t worry, the fight isn’t too hard. If you keep moving around and dodging, you can avoid the swarms and take down the Pest without much trouble.
