- Not to be confused with Grave Warden.
Gravetender Hollows, or Grave Wardens, are enemies in Dark Souls III.
Description[]
Cloaked hollows that roam the Cemetery and Firelink. They are usually found in a lethargic state but will swiftly rise to attack the player if alerted. There are four variants of this type of enemy, wielding different weaponry: a broken sword, a straight sword, a spear and shield, and a crossbow.

Strategy[]
As the first enemies encountered in the game, Gravetender Hollows are designed to introduce the player to the combat mechanics and are not a significant threat. However, they can perform a frenzy combo that deals high damage and they usually appear in small groups. Most of them appear passive when approached but will quickly rise, so the player is recommended to eliminate them as they stand up.
As they are undead enemies, Gravetender Hollows are very vulnerable to fire damage. They stagger easily and are vulnerable to backstabs. The variants encountered in the Untended Graves are identical in appearance and behavior, but are scaled up in offensive and defensive power.
