Waterfowl Dance
Probably the most famous boss in the video game, Malenia has a waterfowl dance that can one-shot lower-health builds. The Waterfowl Dance, which is based on an anime bullshit move, is an excellent way to mark your success. It can be avoided by utilizing a special skill known as the Bloodhound Step.
While in the air, Malenia will launch herself into the air, which will cause her to launch a series of attacks. This initial barrage will strike you, but luckily, your stamina will regenerate between combos. However, if you can’t get behind her, you’ll need to make sure that you have enough shields or run away immediately.
You can obtain an Elden Ring by using the skill on the right weapon. This unique skill can be useful in clearing groups of enemies, but you must make sure that you’re prepared for it. It’s not the easiest skill, but it can be a great help in the long run. If you’re wondering where to get one, read on for tips and builds.
Scarlet Bloom
A Malenia’s scarlet bloom is one of her most powerful attacks. She will create a huge rot flower and then crash down, dealing a ton of damage and inflicting Scarlet Rot over time. If you want to avoid the damage she deals, you’ll have to dodge her bloom’s effects. The best way to approach her is when most of her petals are visible. That way, you’ll only get a couple of rot ticks.
The Hand of Malenia is also an uncommon item that can be obtained through completing the game’s side quests. Players will find that Malenia is a demi-god. She is an optional endgame extra, and can be found by completing the Haligtree Roots Site of Grace and Ordrina Gaol challenges. While it may be tempting to fight her alone, you can also enlist the help of other players and try to fend off the evil witch. You’ll need three people to defeat Malenia and get the hand of Malenia.
Black Knife Tiche
One of the best Ashen Remains in the Elden Ring is the Black Knife Tiche. This summon has a high mobility, good dodge potential, and can negate the heal of Malenia, a boss in the Elder World. It can be tricky to summon, though, so you should be prepared for that. Here are some tips to make your summoning experience easier.
The first step to using the Black Knife Tiche is to obtain the Spirit Ashes of Alecto, the Black-Knife Ringleader. To get this ring, you have to make significant progress in Ranni’s questline. This will grant you access to the Moonlight Altar Site of Grace. It takes two hours to obtain the Black Knife Tiche, and it will reward you with two additional rings.
Assuming a spirit is an essential part of the fight with Malenia. If you have a weak summoning spirit, it will just act as a heal bot. The best summoning spirit is Imitator’s Tear, which requires Cursed Blood of Moghr and the Roderika upgrade. This Spirit is an exact replica of the player you summon.
Staggering Malenia
If you have already completed the main quest line, you can now begin to fight the optional boss Staggering Malenia in Elden Ring. This elven demigod is the sister of the demigod Miquella and her bodyguard. She is also known as the most powerful Empyrean in the game, wielding a prosthetic leg and arm. Her ultimate goal is to spread the Scarlet Rot across the Caelid Region.
While hovering in the air, Malenia will throw a series of swings at you. These attacks are a mixture of evasion and timing, and her attack is particularly effective when Malenia uses the ring on a single target. Malenia’s attacks can be interrupted by greatswords and longswords, which disrupt her spinning attacks. Once Malenia completes the spinning attack, she will do a wide swing of the blade towards you, resulting in a massive damage output.
