There are plenty of bosses to fight in Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, but the toughest are definitely its Remembrance bosses. These enemies are categorised by the Remembrances they drop on defeat, allowing you to trade them in for powerful weapons, spells and items back at the Roundtable Hold.

Some of the Remembrance bosses in Elden Ring's DLC also double up as some of the main bosses for Shadow of the Erdtree that you'll need to beat as part of the story, but there are plenty more that are completely optional. To help you find and defeat them all, we've listed all Remembrance bosses in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree below, along with details on what reward items you can get by giving their Remembrances to Finger Reader Enia.

WARNING: This page contains spoilers for Shadow of the Erdtree's bosses, including the final boss of the game. Advance at your own risk!

All Remembrance Boss rewards in Shadow of the Erdtree

When you beat a Remembrance boss, you'll gain their Remembrance. While these items can be consumed to earn more runes, they can also be exchanged for powerful items that belonged to or represented the boss you defeated. You can exchange Remembrances for these items with Finger Reader Enia at the Roundtable Hold, which you can fast travel back to at any point during Shadow of the Erdtree.

Each Remembrance gives you a choice of items to pick from, but you can only use it to get one of them, so you'll need to think carefully about which reward you want to claim. That said, it’s also possible to use Stone Coffins in the Shadow Realm to duplicate Remembrances so that you can redeem both items. However, like the Walking Mausoleums in Elden Ring's base game, these still have limited uses. We've only found three Stone Coffins in the Shadow Realm so far, and each one only lets you duplicate a Remembrance once, so to get every Remembrance item will require multiple playthroughs.

To help you make your decision, we've got a full list of all possible Remembrance rewards from Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree’s major bosses below:
