Messmer Foot Soldier

Messmer Foot Soldiers are the common troops who fought in the crusade against the hornsent. They wear simple cloth armour blackened with soot. Some carry short swords or daggers, while others hang back with crossbows that fire slowly.

You find them in camps and strongholds held by Messmer’s army, such as the northern Gravesite Plain, Castle Ensis, Scadu Altus and Rauh Base. They back up the tougher Messmer Soldiers, much like the foot soldiers of the Lands Between, such as the Godrick Foot Soldier.

How to beat it

On their own they are weak, but they rarely are on their own. Pick off the crossbowmen first, then deal with the swordsmen, and watch out for the stronger soldiers they serve with.
