  • Maliketh is my favorite Elden Ring boss so far. He is very challenging, requiring lots of practice. I haven't had this much fun with a boss in a while. Captured on PS5.

    Nicely done. I'm a STR build too and just got to Maliketh myself, this video showed me I need to be more patient and not just go for unga bunga jump attacks the whole time.

    I love how every single time he did that blade ball attack you couldn’t dodge it, and you had an incredible fight. Fuck this entire fight because of that one specific attack. Every other part is great.

      @@enol1466 You want to try and get behind him for that attack. I struggled with Maliketh a lot but ended up doing that and also using the blasphemous claw. Beat him yesterday also with a claymore/strength build.

      It is rather easy to dogde just very counterintuitive. If he stabs into the ground he might do the AOE attack or the walmart waterfoul dance. For the latter after he slashes upwards you roll into to him and it will miss every time. For the other times he does it there is a large build up time. Staying close to him in the second fase is key, because he does the ranged attack less as well which has a really powerful end to the combo

    Omg, so the first time I played Elden Ring I resorted to using mimic tear from godskin duo onwards and I felt ashamed as I've completed every other Fromsoft game solo as melee build with no buffs, no summons.
    So, I was determined to go back one day and do it all like that. So far so good, I'm all the way to Maliketh and have only played solo melee with no buffs or anything.
    Been trying to beat Naliketh for 2 days and just now I had full health, took his health down to nearly zero and I staggered him! Did a critical on his head and the health bar was zero! I sat there breathing, celebrating - only to realise too late that he had a smidgeon of health left, he got up and killed me!
    Lol. If only I'd realised, I could have gone in for one final hit!

      I’m currently trying to solo the game and I’m stuck on maliketh, the most painful part is that you’ll still have a lot of flasks and you would have gotten his life down to almost zero then he just one shots you, really annoying

    This video is a great showcase of why STR weapons are so shit in ER. Because the attacks are so fucking slow it's nearly impossible to get hits on more agile bosses with anything other than jumping/rolling attacks lol

      @ihateyourface2747 2 года назад +2

      no lol this guy just doesnt know how to use greatswords, greatswords are good but they take more time to get off charged so it takes longer to learn your openings, but once you can get a few charged attacks off it will shred a bosses poise and then its repost city

    • @gaminggaming.6071
      @gaminggaming.6071 2 года назад +1

      go check one of those vids where you can check poise damage of weapons... weapon arts are for big damage, r1s are for quick damage, heavy and charged attacks specially are for knocking the enemy down to do a crit attack. did the whole radagon and elden beast fight by tanking hits while fully charging the grafted greatsword, easy.

    The second part shows how shit is the boss design for str weapons. Watch it again if you don't believe me: there is one and only one move that is punishable, the horizontal slash followed by a delayed attack. It's the only move that he uses to deal damage and when he tries another attack window he gets punished. This is not a responsive fight, it's a "run around the arena waiting for one and only one precise move" fight. Boring and repetitive.

    Snoozefest. And it's not your fault, you did fine. It's the developers' fault.
    They nerfed str builds by slowing down the speed of the attacks too much and giving them ridiculously long recovery time.
    It's just not fun playing this way.
