  • @goatseatchili1817
    @goatseatchili1817 2 года назад +203

    Alright folks. I finally beat him and one trick that made it possible was when he does the attack where he jumps up and plunges his sword in the ground resulting in a delayed explosion, if you get too far from him before he creates the explosion he will jump in the air and try the anime attack on you instead, if you see him jump up, turn around and try to get behind him. It leaves him open to at least 2 attacks.

      @Mattress Store skill comes in many different forms in souls games. You could be a master at dodging and fighting to where you can beat the game in underwear and with a stick, or you could be an expert in builds, stats, items, enemy weaknesses. In this case you know how to build a character that can most effectively destroy the game. Both are equally valid and that’s why souls games are so great.

    @monadoboiz9778 Год назад +10

    My least favorite part of this fight isn’t his bullshit health drain or massive combos. It’s the fact that he moves too fucking fast, he’s so hard to actually hit with melee. He does a hop and a flip and he’s on the other side of the arena. You run up to him to try to get some damage just for him to jump to the other side once you finally get close enough. It drags the fight on way too long imo.

  • @valkyrion_ex1173

    Beat him, but I feel like I might have had a better time using my katanas. I insisted on using dual curved greatswords (as I have for 90% of the game so far) but it was hell trying to actually get a hit and not get completely fucked. Had to pull out the Mimic for the last 30% of his health because I was tired of dying lol.
    Ngl, I'm getting a bit irritated by how OTT some of these engame bosses are. Kinda sick of lightning-quick enemies with anime slash-storms, instafuck AoE's and think-fast stabs/projectiles. Feels like I'm playing Dark Souls while the bosses are playing Sekiro.

      26 here and I've always struggled with mechanical skill in videogames, and I know it's only downhill from here. Reaction times and precision have always been my weak points but I've always managed to get around the issue by playing smart.
      I've struggled through every souls game but I always found ways to depend less on mechanical perfection. Fromsoftware seems to lean more and more into this dimension of the game with every release.
      I've felt that way ever since Bloodborne came out. Throughout my 200 hours with Elden Ring I've felt the game was off limits for me and that even though I learn bosses patterns and windup animations I simply can't process them and react fast enough.
      Even when I win I feel like I jost got lucky. Malekith might be the game breaker for me.

    Also there's a nasty hidden mechanic in this fight. If none of you have noticed, everytime he hits you, he has a Dark Souls 3 Jailer stare effect. Your actual maximum health will be decreased temporarily, and even more with each time you take a hit, also on top of a rapid health drain everytime he hits you. Yeah he's a definite callback to Sif/Artorias in my opinion but just really take care to not get hit because maximum health decrease, massive damage, AND rapid health drain all in one hit can make the fight very difficult and end it prematurely lol

I reached here and threw a few attempts and realized I didn’t do enough damage with the ice rind hatchet+10. So went and got moonveil to +9 and uchigatana+24 and used that build. Threw 8 attempts in a row where I died in less than 30 seconds and got so mad I cried a little. 😳. As of right now I sit, unable to beat this boss, I will update this comment once I beat it.

    Lore question here (and spoilers if you are among the few who haven't played/beaten it yet!). The reason Tarnished even exist is because the rune of death was contained within Maliketh, right? Like, the reason you don't truly die is because there is no true death while the rune is sealed/contained. It's this reason that the Erd Tree starts to die after you defeat Maliketh. So my question is, why is the player character still resurrected when defeated after the death rune has been released? And why do enemies still respawn after resting at a site of grace?
    Obviously, I know this would majorly suck for the player if permadeath started after Maliketh, and it would suck if enemies didn't come back for farming purposes. But lore wise it would make sense no?

    Man, this guy was just absolutely brutal. He moved so fast that I couldn't understand his flurry move's cue, so thanks for pointing out it's the preemptive 360.
    If anyone is in the comments looking for advice, the thing that helped me the most is not panicking. Running away from him after getting hit almost every single time resulted in an insta-kill. I think FromSoft wants you to match his aggression and not be afraid to heal up while just inches away from him

    Beat him after about 15 attempts without summons but wow was he tough. His moveset is so fast and diverse that it gets difficult to track him at certain points and when you realize where he is its too late since he one shots you with many attacks and the destined death effect. Your guide was really helpful for this awesome fight! What helped me in the fight was repeatedly baiting out his sword jump attack to get guaranteed damage after he lands, but being patient and not greedy is the most important factor to successfully kill him. Hope this helps :)

  • @realmrgeopig

    “Attack him while he’s in an animaton” my ass, any time he’s in an animation he’s doing something that whoops my ass. Have 95 poise, medium load, one of the best armor sets in the game and 50 vigor + a +3 crimson amber medallion? No you don’t, silly. He’ll just flinch you for long enough to fuck you up before you’ve had a chance to even roll. Wanna roll through his bestial claw move? No you don’t, it has a trail behind it that just so happens to catch your roll if you don’t wait till the exact frame it reaches your ballhairs and then roll forward. Wanna attack him while he’s doing a slow attack? No, you can’t. He won’t do it unless he’s fifty feet from you or you’re already stance-broken. Wanna have a fair fight? “Nuh uh” said the draconic tree sentinel outside the door that for some reason can do an aoe attack that knocks you over through the mist. Wanna use a spell or incantation? Have fun getting it off before he decides to trek the arena and give you the beating of ‘87. Wanna use the weapons you already have maxed out? Too bad so sad, max moonveil or delete the game. In short, give me three days and I’ll be preaching about how great of a boss he was.

    Tip for the 2nd phase when you spawn in head to the back left of the arena where the broken pillars are his attacks are far more predictable and he stays on the ground alot more due to him not having any pillars to jump on this allows you to get in more hits than ever still gonna take alot of attempts just keep trying.
