If you have the Elden Ring, you may be wondering where to fight Malekith. Unfortunately, the ring doesn’t give you a cheese option. Thankfully, you can still fight Malekith in the first instance using broken builds. The Tarnished are familiar with arcane-based builds and most of these builds can beat Malekith at a level of 100 or higher.

Getting as close to Malekith as possible
One of the key strategies for fighting Malekith is getting close to him. You can do this by positioning yourself near the feet of Malekith and at his backside. This will allow you to dodge his 360-degree spinning attack. However, you need to time your dodge in order to hit Malekith. If you are too far away from him, he’ll use his powerful energy beam attacks, which can one-shot you.
Getting close to Malekith is very important when fighting him in the Elden Ring arena. Malekith’s attacks are quite varied, and while his attacks can be extremely damaging, you can counter them by using the Blasphemous Claw. Despite being an elf, Malekith has many traits of a dark elf, which make him a tough opponent. He possesses superhuman strength, endurance, agility, and reflexes. As an added bonus, he has a golden glow around his sword, so you should make sure you equip your Blasphemous Claw at the right time.
Getting as close to Malekith as you can is essential for melee characters. While he is in the air, melee characters can’t do much. However, magic characters can use this time to cast spells. However, you should make sure you’re prepared for his descent, as the sword he drops will leave a delayed explosion in the ground.
Using Blasphemous Claw
Using Blasphemous Claw is a great option for completing the first part of the Maliketh quest in Warcraft III. However, it is best to keep it in your quick item slot. This is better than using a pouch because you can access it immediately, instead of cycling through it. You can use this item in the fight against Maliketh the Black Blade.
The Blasphemous Claw is a special tool item that you can equip and use against Maliketh. This tool drops from the invader NPC Recusant Bernahl, which can be a good choice if you want to avoid Maliketh’s second phase attacks. The claw is a bit difficult to use, however, and you should be sure to dodge it as much as possible.
When you are fighting Maliketh, it is important to use the Blasphemous Claw wisely. There are specific moments when you can use it, such as after you have defeated the Beast Clergyman and right before Maliketh’s attack. You can’t simply use it to block the spell or deal damage to the boss. You have to time your attacks properly to maximize your effectiveness.
Maliketh’s most dangerous AoE attack
The most dangerous AoE attack of Malekith’s elden ring is his Destined Death. It generates a cloud of slashing swords that surround the target. This ability can be exploited by using certain skill combinations. To counteract the effect, roll or dodge when Maliketh starts his phase. You can also dodge his slashing blades by standing under them or rolling away.
Maliketh’s sword causes significant damage when hit and continues to deal minor damage for five seconds afterward. Taking a strike from Maliketh will lower your maximum health by a very small amount, and the red projectile effect will damage for a long time. It’s possible to lose up to half your max health in a barrage of strikes. The blade can be very dangerous if used without a proper defense strategy.
Another attack that a Malekith elden ring can be particularly dangerous is the Beast Clergyman’s slash. Taking a strike from this ability will deal significant damage to a target. The secondary effect of the spell will also cause Maliketh to miss a lot of attacks. The damage is spread out so that everyone in the vicinity can be affected.
