Malenia, but I fight her like Sekiro

For those who are confused: there's a new crystal tear in the DLC that allows you to avoid damage if you block right before enemy attack lands on you (just like in sekiro). It also reduces stamina drain and enhances guard counters

Imagine Malenia jump up for her waterfowl dance and Wolf just straight up use Anti-air deathblow
🤣😂😂
I don't think that'd work on her though. It doesn't work on really powerful bosses
It works with every humanoid boss as far as I know since he simply cuts carotid artery. @@wildbard4112
@@wildbard4112 it does with divine confetti
@@spud6989not at all bru
this dlc has made the base game look like its on easy mode 😭
When you do so much damage everything is easy.
@@auronkardek nah, it looks easy because the bosses aren't jumping your ass every 0.2 seconds spamming AoE attacks
@@grimmtherapist
casual
The main game is way harder than the DLC though..
@@KengaruZstraight up lie
bro deflecting in elden ring looks like it had to be in the base game
It kinda was, but it was mostly only accessible to STR builds when wielding Colossal Swords. All weapons come with a Guard value, similar to shields. Problem is, that since this guard value is considerably lower than what a shield can provide, most people tend to ignore it. Colossals can get between 67% to 82% negation for blocking physical dmg. Which is good, but not perfect like shields.
But, of course, most Souls vets preferred to roll a vast majority of the time.
@@Magus_Union He said deflecting not blocking 😭
It trivialized one of the hardest bosses here, so probably not.
@@hecc7906 it's the same thing 😢 the deflect animation is from blocking and immediately attacking after
@@SharkamfssSkill and experience also trivialize the hardest bosses. Both things are required for perfect deflections.
Playing dlc is like training in the hyperbolic time chamber
The training arc is real
1:40 You really just parried waterfowl.
That's how I felt when I realized you can party the Sekiro equivalent from Isshin
@@TheSilly6403it's called one mind for anyone interested
That is not waterfowl, and that is not a parry but a deflect
@@TheSilly6403what do you mean, first off that wasn’t a waterfowl dance.
Second how did you only realize you can parry everything at the final boss? That is just stupid
Thirdly isshin doesn’t have as big of a flurry attack as genichiro so floating passage is more comparable to waterfowl but you decided to google the final boss and just say that?
@@thisisyou6450 1, I was talking about how it's possible with the new tear
2, I was aware that almost all attacks were pariable in Sekiro, I've platinumed it and done all gauntlets C BD NG7. I was talking about how satisfying it was
3, I was talking about One Mind, Isshin only does it in the Shura ending
Further proof that Sekiro would absolutely DOG WALK the lands between
I disagree. My man Godfrey has a powerbomb with Sekiro's name on it.
Gameplay-wise? Obviously
Lore-wise? Obviously not
@@DiaomBayetlore wise yes he can't die and have a Sword that Can kill immortals
Hell nah lore wise absolutely not and he would need to perma use his immortal god slaying sword
Gameplay wise idk since a lot of these attacks are unbockable and sekiro doesnt dodge
@@Kacper-jw3bv he dodge and he's immortal
"Hesitation is defeat."
I never witnessed how crispy the uchi counter animation is... gawdamn
Literally a basic overhead slash?
@@thisisyou6450 yea it’s very similar to the heavy attack
Great katana is my favorite
Yeah but look at the way he holds it back for a second before making that clean, snapping cut @thisisyou6450
@@beesmongeese2978 It's clean and crisp
"Let me parry her."
This shows perfectly well that if malenia was a sekiro Boss she'd be easy as hell
Obviously if she was in Sekiro she'd be calibrated for the game and made a lot faster with more vicious attacks.
That said, even Isshin eventually feels easy once you're trained enough
@@benjaminthibieroz4155Even? Isshin is easy. Compared to any emdgame Elden Ring boss, Isshin is a joke. Phenomenal and flawless fight but not difficult.
@@Nrzpokrterto be fair it's not comparable.
Sekiro's difficulty it's based in your skills and improvement but rather of the difficulty of the Boss. Once you learn how to fight the Boss then is no longer hard to you.
But if we put Isshin and Malenia in comparisong taking in count the games where they belong, Isshin is the greatest challenge testin everything you learn and saw trough the game.
Malenia in the other hand is hard because of her Boss Mechanics, she heals with every hit even Blocking, so it's quite the opposite to Sekiro's gameplay.
Either Way now we can see how a Boss from both games would act in either game.
In Sekiro we have Demon of Hatred but it's mostly a Soulsborne Boss in that game, resulting in a very long fight and endurance test.
Now in Elden Ring we have a new mechanic pretty close to the parry system and shows us how it trivialices the fights where this thing wasn't prepared to deal with it.
@@tobigomez3069 i disagree imo what makes malenia hard is the delay in the atacks not the heal.
Sorry for bad english i am using google
@@Nrzpokrter Can't wait for Redditors to be saying this about the Shadow of the Erdtree bosses 5 years from now. Social media comments sections are allergic to good takes I reckon.
Damage stacks up to 3x if you do several perfect guards in a row.
Very cool
Hence his massive counter-attack after waterfowl.
Max 80% extra damage
Does this work with royal knight's resolve?
It stacks up? So cool
Giving her death blows 😭
Ongbal about to have a field day with the whole of elden ring lol
I wish they made it a talisman
I think it's more flexible as a tear because that allows it to be slotted into more builds. Besides, its the longest lasting tear at five minutes, which is more than enough for boss fights. Heck, i even use it at the start of dungeons and it usually lasts until the end or until I find a grace
@@malikhittam1440 Yes it's perfectly enough. Sometimes it seems you spend longer but most fights aren't longer than 5 minutes. I remember thinking once that i spent 30 minutes fighting Malenia, just to check the recording and seeing 5 minutes, and was like, wtf?
Yeah I agree, but it lasts for 5 minutes so should be long enough for any boss fight or a PvP duel.
there's a mod to remove the duration on the tear buff if you're interested
that would be easy mode tho
bringing lady butterflys kunais is wild
I honestly wish they had a boss rush mode like Sekiro just to fight her again that way...
Id ur on pc get the Reforged mod
Extra difficulties, more content, deflect by default, and boss revival for free
Crafting is also massively improved
Suggestion for the next fantasy game Miyazaki does (now that he has lessons from Sekiro and Elden Ring): Deflects for humanoid enemies and bosses, dodges required for giant horrific monstrosities.
Humanoids should have more attack tracking and thus require you to block, much harder to dodge anything, but can be Sekiro'd like crazy. This mimics a closer feel to real martial arts, you can't typically dodge a fast, small attack by an observant opponent.
Meanwhile, if you're so itty bitty, or if you're facing most elemental attacks, you shouldn't be able to block them. *Maybe* some with a shield, but most often it doesn't matter that you have a plank of wood or a metal dome with you, a giant will flatten you in one or two hits. So you need to dodge those, and to compensate the bigger enemies have much worse tracking.
Boom SekiSouls
I hate tha frenzy only affects tarnished npc. I think it should work on all humanoids.
They could make it so any parriable attack is also deflectable. All they'd have to do is count it as a parry player-side and remove the parry animation
Would be better than being able to deflect everything as it makes the game too easy imo (ER Reforged has this feature)
I'm about this one 👍
better or worse tracking doesn't really make much of a difference when dodging makes you invulnerable for half a second and most attacks last for like a tenth of one at most
Sekiro Could parry the Empire State Building if it fell bruh
Wait HOLYSHIT the deflecting hard tear actually counters ALL of her waterfowl attacks?? This lowkey will make this boss twice as easy because its literally only that one attack that trips me up because I never learned to do the camera lock off spin around thing if she does it up close 😂
I mean it’s still not easy if your on low health. It’d be kind of like perfect deflecting all of genichiros wombo combo or isshins pistol. You’d almost always take damage if you don’t deflect everything correctly.
@@HeartOfHallownest It's actually quite easy, you don't need to press L1 repeatedly.
Press L1 and HOLD it while she's going on the first rush, then you need to drop L1 button and Malenia gonna have an about 1 second delay to start the 2nd and 3rd rush, you just gotta press L1 exactly between these delays from her and hold while she's attacking
@@grimmtherapist Thanks for that! I was wondering if we'd have to mash all of it.
There's plenty of ways to dodge Waterfowl Dance, there's a few videos on YT showing you how to do it :)
Why do you need the camera lock on spin? Keep a certain distance away which will let you punish everything while allowing you to jump off (or light roll) her first attack of waterfowl.
I just started Sekiro last night for the first time and now I really want to try this after also completing the DLC in ER. You sir, are something else for this
Even had the Sekiro deathblow…wow
This tear is literally Lies of P's Gaurd parrying, i love it so much
Which, in turn, was borrowed from Sekiro. Full circle lol
@@13Kr4zYAzN13 wasn't really borrowed from Sekiro, i'd say "inspired" at best, as the mechanic is still vastly different, it's closer to Code Vein's deflecting mechanic, which would make more sense where it comes from, as the game uses similar combat and mechanics to Code Vein,
relying more on Blocking than Dodging to defend against attacks and also having mutliple skills and stats to boost a lot of varience on the fly... (which also makes sense with a lot of each game's skills being tutored more towards improving blocking and deflection based gameplay)
Ferb, i think i know what we're doing today
Malenia when she fights an actual swordsman:
I swear if the player character used greatswords like they were actual swords and not clubs Malenia would stand no chance
@@no-112aka the new light greatsword
@@no-112 That's banished knight sword to you
@@no-112 Souls games have always relied on the player character being a godawful fighter for difficulty.
The deflect hardtear makes so much sense for this boss
This thing single-handedly made the $40 price tag actually worth it
The waterfowl dance deflect was beautiful
Hesitation is defeat.
She never knew defeat because she never met a warrior that knew how to do a basic riposte.
The game is really enjoyable with the right build when levelled up. This was fun to watch.
Having done this too… YOU CANT TELL ME MALENIA ISNT A NERFED SEKIRO BOSS!
She is literally a slightly slower Isshin!
Even her phase 1 to 2 transition.
From a Walker to a Runner!
Deflecting hardtear is my new favorite flask. It’s so great
I now understand why people felt like Malenia was a Sekiro boss in a Dark Souls game.
Because data miners found that she was reused from a scrapped Sekrio DLC
@@Kingdomkey123678That is blatant misinformation. They found that waterfowl dance uses the same animation as one of the combat arts. There is no evidence that she was from reused sekiro assets. A more reasonable theory is that she is a revitalized sekiro boss concept.
@@basicus0she is from sekiro, she has an unused animation, the mikiri counter animation.
@@chuchodal25 Proof?
We been saying that day one lol
Bro even got the mortal blade
That's what the tear does? I thought it increased the guard stat on weapons, aka, reduced stamina when blocking. That's cool.
This is John Sekiro and his Immortal Blade
Didnt even know gaurd counters were a mechanic till this playthrough, this god damn game man
That's it!
That's what we've been waiting for!
The new Sekiro parry never gets old
Tanking waterfowl dance while blocking with sword is the coolest shit I sweae
So you're telling me we finally have a way to literally counter waterfoul dance?!
so I'm not the only one who abuse this new trick, I beat Radhan with it was glorious
Should've brought Rakshasa's great katana too, as the Mortal blade 😂
Man, I thought it wouldn't work nearly as well since she can heal from your deflects, but I guess if you guard counter that early into her combos you can out damage it. Good to know, I might have to try this on my next run against her!
It helps if you're level 278 like he is
man i love this dlc
and thus, letmeparryher has been born.
Can't believe he just endure Fowldance like that 😭
The fact she still heals from a perfect counter where you lose no HP hurts...
"hesitation is defeat"
Impaling Thrust 관통찌르기 전회인데 이게 빠르게 그로기를 주는 전회이군요. 무기 공격력 187% 만큼의 데미지와 600%의 그로기를 준다니깐 좋군요. 엄니찌르기 (piercing fang)보다는 약하지만 그래도 선딜이 짧아 좋다는군요. 무기는 긴이빨(nagakiba)인듯한데 영상보니 따라해보고싶네요😅 정말 고수이시네요. 예리 변질 기량 캐릭 인듯함. 말레니아의 물새난격(waterfowl)을 검으로 막을수가 있군요. 무조건 굴러서 피하는 줄만 알았는데 공부가 되었습니다
Bros left bumper is broken he did that double bloodflame input lmao 😂
Her not popping water fowl was crazy
Only 1 Waterfowl Dance???? Thats some amazing rng
"This looks easy"
[Level 278]
Oh...
the dlc was so hard, it made us able to block waterfall with weapon
This was satisfying to watch! Are you timing your blocks during her AoE attack, or are you holding down block during the duration of each "swirl"? Or are they parries? (I'm a noob when it comes to parries in Souls games, haha).
Malenia: “I am Malenia, sword of miquella. And I have never known defeat”
One wacky talisman tucked away somewhere:
just beautiful
Putting that one in the notes box
now u can say that u parry waterfowl dance
something else i noticed is that great katana guard counter can very often duck under the second attack at 2:05 and if rakshasas katana description is correct you dont stagger as much during your attacks. on top of that the high jumping overhead can knock her out of waterfoul. seems like a perfect weapon to counter malenia
Welp! I just watched someone deflect the Water Fowl Dance.
What a match!!!! Very impressive 👏
I actually panicked for a split-second when you blocked her stab instead of hitting the Mikiri...
She fights more like a Sekiro boss than an Elden Ring one. This approach almost looks like it was made for this fight specifically.
blame it on the boogie
100% need a mikiri talisman
I wish this was a proper ash of war with it's own animation instead of a physick you can use once per life
Something tells me they tried that, but they couldn't balance it with FP lol
Sekiro bosses looking at Malenia like "lmao your stance breaks after only three defects??"
Bro tanking water fowl dance with a dual handed katana is WILD
Bloodflame blade stack 2 times or it was not intentional?
My plan for today
-get the smithscript hammer
-max out the smithscript hammer
-throw the smithscript hammer into Malenias face
Miyazaki : noo this isn't how you're supposed to play the game
What do you mean? He took this away from base game because he KNEW we would try this lol
cant believe they didnt include deflecting in the base game after nailing it in sekiro. That was the move forward for this series!
Elden ring and Sekiro were made at the same time so the dev team didn't really have a lot of chances to implement what they learned in 2019. By 2020 up until the release of Elden Ring, the foundations were already set it would've been difficult to implement Sekiro's mechanics in a way that balances with everything Elden Ring does.
But we know of sure the next fromsoftware will have more of Sekiro in it like Armored Core did
@@potatoesblink3299 makes sense. In 10 years playing souls game, I always wondered why there wasn't sword clashing in these games (breaking my immersion a bit) then sekiro came along
This should be a talisman instead of a temporary buff.
It would be more incredible if it turns out that he is not using hacks, but is doing the perfect block glitch.
It may look like the parry from Sekiro but it doesn't look like it if you can't make a mikiri for Malenia 🗿
This is what happens when there is no hyper armor. Terrible balance
After beating the dlc final boss with only melee and no summons, I went back to Malenia to compare the difficulty. I was shocked. Malenia, who used to be SO hard, now felt like fighting a teddy bear
Honestly it's the hp that makes the final boss a pain if she had the dlcs boss hp she would be way harder
@@azeria1 Well, if we add the hp from her too phases, she's roughly at 35 000 while DLC final boss is around 40 000. And that's not taking her healing into account. Her most significant weakness is the fact she can't staggered.
Agree. It was like child’s play for me.
This is the cycle of fromsoft games, after you struggle through the game in your first playthrough, the next playthrough will always feel much easier. We will feel the same about the final boss after a while
Even Radadaddy feels easy after Malenia
For the waterfowl dance, are you holding down the deflect button or only pressing it when she's attacking in the combo, kinda like spamming it
You should time your deflects with her attacks, which is kinda hard to do perfectly, like genichiro's long combo attack in sekiro
@@Limebee_ ah ok. That would've been harder then. Genichiro's attack is much simpler to deflect. Honestly says a lot about melania as a boss fight
@@vishnuanand1583When you hear pros talking 😅
@@vishnuanand1583 It doesn't actually because Genichiro is from a completely different game?
@@lordofthecookie8555 no it does, Melania is a sekiro boss and even then she's pretty hard
Are you holding down the block button? Or timing the block as she strikes?
Timing the block, just like sekiro
How do you deflect like that without taking any chip damage because I personally want to run this build myself
O yaaa thats What We like, Ggs
What ash of war have you in the uchi? Does it change on someting?
I'm not gonna sugarcoat it
naaah bro this looks so cool i need to try it
who knows if in the future they will fix the fact that she still takes care of herself even when you parry her
I knew you were a fuckin chad the moment I saw you had your flasks in your pouch
