Is it really that hard? I can do it pretty consistently, it was more just trial and error learning to dodge it from up close and it was a little awkward. I guess trial and error may be proof that it is genuinely hard since that's how you learn hard moves...
@Wonkess_Chonkess Same. I guess people are traumatized because of their first time against the waterfowl dance. I can dodge it pretty consistently and hardly take any damage.
I found her cloning attack to be 10x worse than waterfall. Also I came to her with Giants flame incarnation and that thing basically just annihilated her, she was on the floor half the fight, I was almost a little sad that she wasn't as challenging as I thought :(
A heads up for future builds. Blue dancer charm only affects physical scaling damage and isn't based on your equip load class, but your actual weight (from the wiki : "Damage bonus not based on percentage equip load, but rather the actual value of current equip load. The damage bonus has soft caps at 8, 16 and 20 equip load. Once equip load is 30 or higher the talisman has no effect.")

@@camdog6205not at all, 40 vigor should be where people stop leveling it. i can sit comfortably around 30 vigor, but im not most people. its different for everyone, if you are good at the game, you can stop at around 30 vigor, if you need to level because you are struggling, 60 should be the limit
I loved every second of this video. There were moments where I wondered why you didn’t punish certain pauses but figured you’ve played her enough to respect the speed of her attacks and how punishing a mistake is. I’ve only beat her on my main STR + Faith build (fire type w/ blasphemous) but also used mimic. Gotta try her without mimic next time, you gave me ideas with the high endurance + light rolls and just playing it slow and steady. Thanks for taking the time to make this!
I was in the same boat because Malenia's kick can be punished reliably (you kinda swing as the kick dissipates, comes back to her. Can also jump and attack, landing will make you crouch into the dead zone) but i think the reason is how many followups from that kick there are, including waterfowl and you don't wanna be in a moves endlag when you need to start immediately making her attack the wrong way/circle her around
This is a great guide! Simply amazing that you show of the complete builds and fights. 👏👏👏 I have still only managed to beat her solo with an op bleed build, but hey, she doesn´t exactly fight fair, right? 🤷♂😉 "I knew you'd understand, I just knew it. The heart of a lion. A model for the rest of us. A true friend, forever."
BTW for night comet, you can always hit two on malenia if after you hit one night comet you immediately fully charge another, as she will either dodge into it or do nothing
@@omerta4l665 she will dodge AFTER u hit the night comet, so if you spam night comet you will miss the second one. If you charge up fully the second one, it will time perfectly when she stops the after-hit dodge. test it out for yourself
I noticed some of your builds had stats at 90 (strength and dex). I thought soft cap was at 80. Incredible fights! Have yet to clear Malenia solo, am gonna try a dex arcane rapier multi status effect build.
Finally I beat her solo on med load lvl 125. I've done str/arc with thr marais greatsword at light roll lvl 150 and faith using pyromancy and the claymore
Yeah I thought that too. My reasoning: - strength has stagger and multiple hits after stagger - Int has lots of big distance hits and op night comet - Faith also has ranged hard hitters - Arcane has blood And dex didn't have range, stagger or (much) bleed options.
I would have used the Blasphemous for the Faith build. It recks her. Plus us noobies actually need the health it gives back. I love how you don’t even have a red crimson flask in your equipment. That’s true confidence!
Imagine training as hard as malenia has with the blind swordsman, training with every fibre of your being and being undefeated, then some asshole wearing a diaper and a pot on his head walks up to you and kicks your ass while you cant even land a single hit lol
as far as i can tell punishing the kick attack isn's completely save. she can do her attack where she swipes the sword up quickly and then slams it down, which cannot be interupted and comes out too fast to dodge unless your using a very fast attack, and even then you need very good reactions.
First one to do it was Ongbal 2 weeks after Elden Ring relase >-< he also has a youtube channel. he invented most of the moves people do vs Malenia including the Waterfowl close range dodge where u run a circle below her. He did no Damage Malenia on day2 and no hit 2weeks later
Faith seems hardest. Specially with magma blade - it was couple danger moments. But how we can see it’s all about extremely safe tactics - one hit after specific’s movements
I'm late, but to answer your question because they answered in different comments: INT was easiest from night comet and STR was hardest due to no range attacks
Nice video but i was laughing at the INT video.... As a INT caster all you need to do is to spam ancient rancord and the weapon star beast jaw weapon skill to kill malenia easily. You can also kill her so easily with Kamehameha
@@Nate_Ludo Oh ok right! I didn't think about it. By the way are them 5 different characters all levelled or did you just used the respect stats function to one character?
No, many weapons and spells require multiple stats to work. All you have to do is accept the fact that you'll take somewhat longer to max your bulds, that's all.

lmao underrated comment
Dodging that close range waterfowl in the faith fight just earned you a sub👍
I had to train to do it using infinite waterfowl mod, and when I tried to do it in my actual winning attempt I messed it up 😂

Still more vigor than most mage builds
It’s more effective to have vigor and just no other stats besides mind and int

incredible without the mimic I would never have been able to beat it and you also do no damage, congratulations congratulations, really good.

What a player. This is the most strongest vid I’ve ever seen of Elden Ring. Good job 👍🏽
one of the best elden ring players I've ever seen!! Good job!
As a mage I appreciate that you just dodge everything! I don't like shields that much!
A proper showdown! Well done fellow tarnished.
wow needs more recognition. great job I watched the whole thing with my jaw dropped. (pause)
BTW for night comet, you can always hit two on malenia if after you hit one night comet you immediately fully charge another, as she will either dodge into it or do nothing
She cant dodge night comet, thats the gimmick of night magic NPC dont react

Well, that was impressive!! Dude can play!
Didn't know pure dex could be that powerful
love it! - Liked and Subscribed :)
Great work Bro
Im just happy they all include the goodest boy's mask
Dual staff of loss/night comet builds are maybe the strongest int builds right now.
I noticed some of your builds had stats at 90 (strength and dex). I thought soft cap was at 80. Incredible fights! Have yet to clear Malenia solo, am gonna try a dex arcane rapier multi status effect build.
I also recommend dex+arc build. I got her in my first try with rivers of blood+10, 35 dex+35 arc+40 vigor. She bleeds very fast.
the dagger build was a pure flex no range at all but you did it.
If you do another arcane run on her, could you try out Eochaid or Marais? That’d be fun to see, I’ve not seen anyone use either on her
The builds of all time!
Bro just disproved my point 5 different times
Your video... Extraordinary
Nice, good work!👍
Finally I beat her solo on med load lvl 125. I've done str/arc with thr marais greatsword at light roll lvl 150 and faith using pyromancy and the claymore
Great builds! What was the easiest kill in your opinion?
Definitely the int build. Night comet is great for malenia.
@@Nate_Ludo thats a good reinforcement. Im running pure int after a lot of experimentation and i find it to be the one to rule them all 🙂
Really good player but the builds could use some balancing.
And they say this boss forces narrow meta builds, well played!
Faith the one that most pissed her off. Amazing gameplay mate
It's unbelievable! I've tried about 8 hours, before beating her with swarm of flies.
This guy is a genius
Watching the int build gave me hope 🫡
Good fights! Had luck in faith fight, but like rocks!
Why did you use the blue dancer charm on the INT build? Above 30 equipload it doesn't do anything.
inteligence build is no doubt the most satisfying one
Impressive. Just impressive.
This video is the ultimate git gud
Thank you so much for sharing. I really liked it.
But is it just me or the dex build took the longest?
Yeah I thought that too. My reasoning:
- strength has stagger and multiple hits after stagger
- Int has lots of big distance hits and op night comet
- Faith also has ranged hard hitters
- Arcane has blood
And dex didn't have range, stagger or (much) bleed options.
Imma use the int build it looks fun
Malenia when you don't wear anything : 🥵
One has to wonder how many hours was spent memorizing all of her moves
Nice content bro
How many times have you killed her? All time? BTW really nice work 😉
Fantastic player!!!
Bro beat Malenia in every flavour
FLAWLESS VICTORY
nice concept ^^
you are crazy bro wp
Wonderful 😁
That last hit tho!
Remarkable ❄️🤣❄️

True maidenless lord
You fight with style
Goods fights!
battle mage is always scary

thank you
She attacking their souls. All that power up got their souls lagging

Respect
How did you get the Heavy Greatsword with the Giant Hunt ash of war? it only grants the Quality affinity
If you have the iron whetblade you can choose between Heavy, quality and keen.
@@Nate_Ludo got it, thanks!
God bless you
Well played. Why didn't you punish the kick attack though?
as far as i can tell punishing the kick attack isn's completely save. she can do her attack where she swipes the sword up quickly and then slams it down, which cannot be interupted and comes out too fast to dodge unless your using a very fast attack, and even then you need very good reactions.
This makes me realize how bad I am at this game
I didn’t think it was possible to beat Malenia without taking a single hit. That’s insane! 😄
First one to do it was Ongbal 2 weeks after Elden Ring relase >-< he also has a youtube channel. he invented most of the moves people do vs Malenia including the Waterfowl close range dodge where u run a circle below her. He did no Damage Malenia on day2 and no hit 2weeks later
It's pretty easy. I even uploaded it to my RUclips to save it
Man I hate you for this video... Now I want to run another 3 80+ hour playthroughs haha
great video but why didn't you say blasphemous blade for faith tho
What are the talismans used in the strength build?
additional respect for not using any katana for dex/arc run lmao
To me, this video proves that str build is the most fun, just you and a big ass greatsword. I love it.
Pure skill
Faith by mile!
Nice builds, now I just need to not get hit by waterfowl.. I can 80% dodge any move she does aside from waterfowl that drops it to 20% lol
Why is the quality so bad from the video, to few bitrate?
Chapters would be useful on this vid 🤞🏼
You dont need a vigor check if you dont plan on getting hit
Nice skills
3:16 Nice
Good fight
Blasphemous blade >> imo best sword to spam kill her with simply because the weapon art does so much damage to her, and staggers her with each hit.
Gotta ask. Which one was the hardest and which the easiest of the builds?
Faith seems hardest. Specially with magma blade - it was couple danger moments.
But how we can see it’s all about extremely safe tactics - one hit after specific’s movements
I'm late, but to answer your question because they answered in different comments: INT was easiest from night comet and STR was hardest due to no range attacks
I saw in the comments that you thought INT was easiest, but what was the hardest one in your opinion?
Probably strength. Just because of slow attacks and no ranged options.
Nice video but i was laughing at the INT video.... As a INT caster all you need to do is to spam ancient rancord and the weapon star beast jaw weapon skill to kill malenia easily. You can also kill her so easily with Kamehameha

No, many weapons and spells require multiple stats to work. All you have to do is accept the fact that you'll take somewhat longer to max your bulds, that's all.
Where are the ost like from soft was doing before elden.. i didn t found ost and boss like before. No music.. no style.
Every build is strong if you know how to dodge
Faith is so bad ass
