Maliketh boss fight
The second phase of the Elden Ring Maliketh boss fight is incredibly taxing and incredibly difficult. The boss is incredibly strong, but it is also incredibly agile for an enemy of his size. You should be level 120 or higher when you attempt this fight. It’s also a good idea to have your weapon fully upgraded to +22/+25. You’ll want to take out Maliketh’s health when you’re at 50%.
The first phase involves fighting Maliketh as the Beast Clergyman. You need to find a gap between his thrust attacks, and dodge any rocks and magical claws. It’s also helpful to use large pillars as cover, as Maliketh generally goes around them. However, you should be prepared for some surprises. You can get a good advantage here by using any of the hints mentioned above.
Defeating the Beast Clergyman
The first part of the fight against the Beast Clergyman is a fairly straightforward one. Once you’ve beaten him to half health, he’ll turn into his true form – Maliketh the Black Blade. His attacks are quite heavy, so keep your distance and avoid his spinning attacks. If you’re not sure what to do during this fight, check out our guide.
The first NPC to face in the area is Gurranq the Beast Clergyman, a large, hooded creature from the Underworld. He’ll be the first boss to be encountered once you’ve finished killing the first Tibia Mariner. The reward for killing him is the hooded beast’s skin. During this fight, you’ll also need to feed Deathroot to him.
Using the Ashes of War
Elden Ring has long been a thorn in the side of the Ashes of War community. This boss is particularly difficult to deal with, as it’s extremely fast and attacks in a very agile way for an enemy of his size. The first phase of the fight begins when the boss is only 50% health, and it gets increasingly harder as it becomes more nimble and taxing. The success of this boss fight will ultimately depend on the ability of the player to adapt to the new environment. To overcome this boss fight, here are some cheese strategies to follow:
A quick tip for dealing with the Beast Clergyman is to avoid his broad attack, which involves stabbing his arms into the ground. If you’re not able to avoid this attack, he will use his broad attack to raise rocks, which will fall at different times. His hands also send waves of slashes towards you. If you’re on your feet, you can avoid these waves by rolling right as they hit you.
Avoiding the rock throws
If you are not sure how to avoid the rock throws while cheeseing the clergyman in Elden Ring, here are some tips to make this encounter much easier. The godskin noble is a tough boss in this dungeon. He has a huge hitbox and uses juke arrows and frequent plunging attacks to get you over his head.
One of the most frustrating aspects of cheeseing a clergyman is the Beast Clergyman. Luckily, you can easily dodge his attacks by using your shield. This boss also does not use a lot of health, which makes him particularly difficult to deal with. A good strategy is to stay out of the way when he performs his beast incantations. Avoiding these attacks will help you maintain your health and survive longer.
Using the shield
When attacking Beast Clergyman, use a powerful armor set, upgraded shield, and the Icon Shield to gain passive health regeneration. The Beast Clergyman will rear up and do a huge wind-up before launching a series of large rocks. These stones will hover for a moment before crashing down and causing massive damage. This strategy will be very effective against Maliketh.
The Wraith’s call bell is located in the next hole of Laskywar ruins. Using the shield to cheese the wraith will help you get the item from the chest in the ruins. ELDENRING is available on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. If you haven’t played the game yet, you can learn more about the combat strategies from the video below.
