Crucible Knight Siluria Recommended Level and Weaknesses
Crucible Knight Siluria is found late into the game and is one of the strongest optional bosses you will possibly face. We recommend going in with a level of 60+ and with at least +5 or +6 weapon.
Like all other Crucible Knights, Crucible Knight Siluria has way too much poise and her defenses are over the roof. The only weakness you can exploit is Lightning and Fire.
Unlike most of the bosses, Crucible Knight Siluria is immune to Bleed and strong against Frost and Scarlet, making her extremely irritating.
Crucible Knight Siluria Attacks and Counters
Crucible Knight Siluria has all the basic attacks of the other Crucible Knights in the game.
She has a Forward Thrust where she runs towards you with her spear ready to impale you. The attack has tracking, so remember to dodge too early, or you will get hit and knocked back. Always dodge to the sides to avoid getting hit.
If you are in melee range of her spear, she will do a combo of multiple swings, that you can easily dodge to either side. The attack can also be safely blocked.
During one of her two AoE attacks, Crucible Knight Siluria will lift her foot and slam it on the ground to create an explosion. You need to run away when she is charging the attack to avoid getting hit.
During the second of her AoE, Crucible Knight Siluria will raise and charge her spear. When charged, the spear explodes and the attack is followed up by her throwing a spiraling energy spear at you. Roll into the attack to avoid getting hit as the attack has tremendous tracking.
The last three attacks in her arsenal are the common crucible Knight attacks. For the first, she will jump up, then fly towards you trying to impale you. The holy wings are a dead giveaway, telling you to get ready to dodge into the attack to avoid any damage.
Next is the Manifest Horns, where Crucible Knight Siluria does a small dash and impales you with horns coming out of her shoulder. The attack is only used at medium range and can be dodged by dodging into the attack, or tot eh either side.
The last attack is Horns Impalement. The attack is very similar to the last one, but this time, the horns emerge from her arm and she simply slaps you. The attack is only observed when you are very close to Crucible Knight Siluria.

Now start spamming Rejection. The spell does no damage but will stun Crucible Knight Siluria, rendering her unable to attack whilst also pushing her back.
After a few hits, Crucible Knight Siluria will be stunned and open for a critical hit. Here, another Rejection spell will knock Crucible Knight Siluria off the cliff, marking her end.
