A hilarious journey to fighting Moder.
In my bid to kill the Bosses solo without relying on God mode, I placed the last egg needed to summon Moder. After making sure that it was day and there were no mobs in the area, I started the summon.

The fight was proceeding as normal, when an intruder showed up.

Had to lure that golem away to take care of him while dodging the ice shards that Moder was sending my way. After taking care of the golem, I went back to the summon area to look for her.

As you can see from the map, the summon area is to my right, so I don't know what she's doing all the way there, but I'm not complaining and pelt her with arrows. I then got hit with 3 ice shards in a row from her. This brought me to 8 health.

That spot where I'm hiding like a mouse is a hollowed out rock by Moder's attacks. It also keeps me safe from her melee attacks, allowing me some free hits. And some of her kin decided to join in.

Yes, I know you can see me here, Moder! Now stand still while I keep pelting you with arrows!

All in all, I used less than 200 obsidian arrows, due to scoring a lot of melee hits when I was under her. Her AI doesn't know what to do if you get under her, so I just equipped my shield and occasionally attacked while keeping my guard up.
I'm getting ready to do it a second time, for a trophy to hang on my wall, so I'm gonna prepare some health and stamina meads for that. (I didn't prepare any when I first fought her, resulting in my near death and hiding below her.)
Yagluth... maybe next 2 weeks.
So, how was your Moder fight?

First Moder fight I raised and leveled the ground around the altar (wolves couldn't join in the fight), I had a golem in a pit near the altar (I figured drakes and maybe moder would go after it...not so much), I even raised some pillars to hide behind when needed (great for spit from the air but the breath goes right through)... ran out of arrows, and couldn't get out of the way from the on ground breath.
New game I have draugyr fang fully upgraded, hunters bow as backup, as many poison arrows as I can carry, food, mead, frost resist (might not stack but a frosty one before the fight works), and I dug out eh area under Moders altar as much as I could, battle area became a pit where I could hide behind/under something that wouldn't break (altar). Only got hit by the breath once.

i dug a trench network to run around and hide in. built a mini base with a portal in case i died so i could get back real fast and have backup supplies. got two of everything that was needed.
Morder was my hardest fight. plan to take what i learned the first time and repeat it again in the new world as i go about and redo everything.

I had the stupid idea that golems would distract moder since the drakes attack them and went into the fight with 2 nearby golems... Bad idea, spent over half the fight repositioning to get out of the way of 3 attacking enemies. Luckily drakes eventually pulled one of the golems away and led it back to its home in a nearby mountain. There were a couple choke points in the area that allowed me to melee moder on the ground while being chased by the golem since the golem could not walk through moder to get to me, this saved a ton of arrows. When night hit the fight actually got easier as the wolves distracted the other golem for a time allowing me to actually 1-on-1 moder.
I feel like moder's health has been tuned down since my last playthrough. Last time I needed 2 bows to take down moder even with opportunistic melee assaults, this time my fully upgraded drauger bow had about half its durability left and I did not deplete either my obsidian or poison arrows. However, running from the golems during the fight made it the longest boss fight I have had.
