Finding Juno Hoslow in Elden Ring requires players to complete a series of specific bounty tasks for Volcano Manor before tracking him down in a late-game region. As the target of the final Red Letter contract, defeating this formidable dual-whip warrior rewards players with his distinct armor set and weapon. Understanding the necessary story progression and travel route ensures you do not miss this important assassination quest.
Starting the Volcano Manor Questline
To initiate the hunt for Juno Hoslow, players must first gain access to Volcano Manor on Mt. Gelmir and speak with Tanith to join the manor. After joining, you must accept and complete the initial assassination contracts given to you in the drawing room. Successfully defeating these early targets opens up the final Red Letter contract that marks Juno Hoslow's location on your map.
Unlocking the Mountaintops of the Giants
Reaching Juno Hoslow's location requires advancing through the main story until you unlock the Mountaintops of the Giants. You must defeat Morgott in Leyndell, Royal Capital, to receive the Rold Medallion needed to operate the Grand Lift of Rold. Once you ride the lift upward, you gain access to the frozen northern regions where your target awaits.
Finding Juno Hoslow at Shack of the Lofty
After reaching the Mountaintops of the Giants, head toward the Shack of the Lofty located in the northwestern section of the region. Near the shack, a red invasion sign will appear on the snowy ground as long as the contract is active. Interacting with this sign allows you to invade Juno Hoslow's world and engage him in combat.
Claiming Rewards and Defeating the Target
Juno Hoslow is a swift opponent who uses Bloodhound's Step alongside dual Hoslow's Petal Whips to inflict severe hemorrhage damage. Maintaining proper spacing and punishing his aggressive dodge maneuvers allows players to overcome his defense. Defeating him grants the full Hoslow Armor Set and Hoslow's Petal Whip, allowing you to return to Volcano Manor for your final reward.
