How to Kill Skeletons in Elden Ring

While killing Skeletons initially is perhaps the easy part — simply overwhelming them up close before they get a chance to strike — putting them down for good is something that is more of a question mark.

To stop Skeletons from respawning in Elden Ring, players simply need to aim at them while they're on the floor and glowing until a targeting circle appears, allowing you to strike them before they fully resurrect. Upon stamping them out again, you'll know that they are gone for good if they disintegrate into dust and ashes.

Typically, Skeletons don't drop anything special or unique once fully defeated.
