If you're going bleed, use bandits curved sword for early game or scavengers curved sword for late game, bandits you can farm but scavengers you need to get one each play through or trade with a friend, put bleed infusion on bandits or occult on scavengers as scavengers has strong innate bleed and having more physical damage will help you power through bleed immune bosses and enemies, for added effect use crow feathers and claw talisman for jump dmg boost and white mask + lord of bloods exultation for dmg boost after proccing bleed, use seppuku on one or both blades late game while using blood slash early game, i prefered using one sword with seppuku to proc the extra dmg from white mask and lord of bloods exultation, and bloodhounds step on the other blade for the ability to get easier backstabs in pvp, I also used the swarm of flies incantation with the dragon seal so I had a ranged bleed attack with good tracking, besides that I added as much poise from legs and arms as possible within reason by using fire prelate gauntlets and greaves, you could use lighter armor for lower levels or go full on bull goat for max poise with crow feathers and white mask, happy huntings
@@luciferstarot7695you got it lol dont forget millys prosthesis, rotten/winged sword insignia, claw talisman, lord of bloods exulation, and shard of alexander is beast i use it sometimes.

This video inspired me to do the same, as my first character is specced into dex and arcane with blood loss weapons. It took me a few turns but whilst my mimic spammed corpse piler I used the sacred spear and killed Malenia. Thankyou for making this dreaded fight easier for me.
If you really wanna see stupid damage, powerstance scavenger curved swords with blood affinity and seppuku. Jump attacks with dual curved swords hits 4 times instantly triggers bleed every jump attack.
@@TragicNP Yes tis indeed true tested it out myself and it ruined Maliketh V of jump attacks alone. Occult scaling increases damage of the weapon a lot more than bleed and with scavenger curved sword increasing the bleed which is automatically at 55 when your spamming jump attacks is pointless because you'll proc bleed anyways.
you can use the perfume that makes you steel then go Nihil perfect combination with the bloodboon ritual if you solo her, Talisman : alexander shard(the better one), lord blood exultation, rotten winged insignia and MIlicent prosthesis or godfrey Icon, note though it will also slow you down but her attack wont stop you.
If I remember correctly isn’t his skill actually not counted as a chargeable attack thus making it unaffected by Godfrey icon. It says that in the wiki too(I don’t know why it doesn’t count if what it’s says is really true)
I decided to leave Farum Azula for a while and start using the Mohgwyn Spear and respec to Arcane to try this method out. It took about 4 tries and I FINALLY defeated her with this build.
You can pretty easy get through first phase is one use of weapon art with buffs to its fire damage. It would also be common sense to use LoB exultation and white mask
I actually fought Melania recently, initially, I tried to do it solo via black knife double teaming with the Tiche spirit summon, and I got pretty close several times, then I prompted to do a multiplayer attempt using the mohgwyn spear….. she got utterly clobbered in one go
I tried this today. I was level 168. I got her on my second try. My first mistake was not having the talisman that causes the mimic to aggro Malenia😂 Worked like a charm.
This guys build is gotta be off because he has faith for some odd reason (just just the ash of war for golden vow, your damage is so low with lower arcane). But i did this exact setup with godfrey icon, fire scorpion charm, lords of blood exultation and shard of Alexander at ~70 or so arcane and the fight was completely trivial. Makes malenia go from the absolute hardest boss to mid tier in my opinion
I’ve never had so much fun during a boss fight than getting my ass beat soloing her for an hour then pulling this build out and summoning the mimic and just going to town her boooo the health regen after each hit makes me not feel bad at all lol
I quite literally did not know this weapon was so good if you positioned yourself right. I ripped her apart and dropped her without using any flasks lol
Great video; wish you had shown which talismans you used... i'm guessing the one that grants attack power in presence of blood, the one that grants attack power successively with each hit, but what else ?
@@Reddit_daily12 This spear needs high arcane levels, 70 or more if you want to get the most out of it, annihilates bosses and tough enemies, even passes through walls and ceilings with this power. It is certainly one of the best weapons in the game, knowing how to use it deals massive damage.
spec into enough health to survive a beating, not too much mind bc it doesn’t use that much and the spear scales with strength and arcane equally so put a bunch into those. i’m level 308 with a full build around this and vykes war spear so tell me if you need my actual numbers 👍🏾
@@PaulaRogelMoreno get well soon troll user. 🤣 Play at your own leisure and pace. Dont stress your self beating the game fist handed, but hey kudos if you beat malenia weaponless and summon less.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@wilfredwayne7139 you know those huge " turtles" made of rock with sanctuary building on their backs, when you take those down, for each individual one per playthrough ( there's at least one in each zone) and go into the building once they collapse, it gives you the ability to recreate one remembrance of your choice, and you don't even need to have it in your possession anymore! So you too can get this weapon, go take down one of those things! Hope this helps!

@@shalimhasanrakhimhabibi4783 I mean, it's an objective fact that any boss becomes like 5x easier if it's taking extra damage from an outside source, and also isn't targeting you, but also, elitism is lame and people criticising other players who aren't even claiming to be pro is dent head behaviour, I agree with you on that lmao, imagine being an elitist about a videogame when no-one asked haha.
@@PyroPsycho95 i know it’s easier, i personally just wanted to max my guy out and play pvp. Also i think the game is very easy since you can go anywhere and fight any boss at any level. I was working a lot and was trying to finish the game so when a boss beat my ass i would mark them and go back later for an easy fight. The mimic was a monster before patch but i still think it wouldn’t take me many more tries without him
This build is actually super strong with the right stuff. I think this was back when arc wasn't even scaling properly. I had about 80 arcane with it Varres white mask Lord of blood exultation Shard of Alex/the tailsman for charged ashes (it counts as charged) Fire dmg tailsman And whichever else you'd like. You can also poke while shielding which is useful. I've hit 17k on the sleeping caelid dragon with FGMS/seppuku on a side weapon. Another side note: the dragons communion seal (arcane scaling one) is super good too and the dragonfire Incant is pretty strong with ur fire buffs. As well as swarm of flies. Super fun build :)
just so you know you can hold down the down arrow you use to switch healing items and it will auto go to your heal flask
Omg this helps a lot thx
It will go to the first item in your equip line, not necessarily your flask. I put them in the pouch so I don't have to look for either.

Weapons with Seppuku (assuming they have any innate bleed) will do more bleed with occult scaling than with bleed scaling

thank you I finally beat her 2 days of grinding runes to get the mohgwns spear and 1 all nighter just to beat her 👌🙌 NG+ here I go
I decided to leave Farum Azula for a while and start using the Mohgwyn Spear and respec to Arcane to try this method out. It took about 4 tries and I FINALLY defeated her with this build.
I had a run where my mimic tear did Bloodboon Ritual at the exact same time as me. Malenia did NOT last long.
*And this was on New Game +.*
Im spontaneously combusting
Wish I had known about this spear before fighting her.
When i fight malenia with this spear all im doing is spamming the skill and yell “NIHIL! NIHIL!!! NIHIIIIIL!!!!!”
I've played like this after upgrading that spear. the sprinting heavy attack is pretty good too. 👍
Had this idea the other day, glad to know it’ll work.

Weak AF to blood
Nearly beat her this way on my first ever attempt on her
huh.. so the mimic tear can actually do a critical strike..? never had mine do that :o
Mine did it three times in the Godskin Duo fight.
Bros vigor is non existent
I’ve never had so much fun during a boss fight than getting my ass beat soloing her for an hour then pulling this build out and summoning the mimic and just going to town her boooo the health regen after each hit makes me not feel bad at all lol
Mimic tear is such a cheese
I USED IT ME AND MIMIC DID IT AT THE SAME TIME AND WE ONE SHOOTED HER FIRST AND SECOND PHASE ON MY SECOND MALENIA ATEMDT EVER
Does her being the goddess of rot make her immune or resistant to scarlet rot?
resistant but the amount of rot you would need to put on her is so much that it would be better to fight her normally
It would be pointless to try. Blood loss is the best to use on her
No single rotten breath poisonous her
Sadly she’s not like mogh
I quite literally did not know this weapon was so good if you positioned yourself right. I ripped her apart and dropped her without using any flasks lol
I defeated malenia in my 1st attempt with Moghwyn spear and river of blood and mimic tear +10 in my first play through
Congratulations.🍻
Great video; wish you had shown which talismans you used... i'm guessing the one that grants attack power in presence of blood, the one that grants attack power successively with each hit, but what else ?
Cant remember the talisman anymore but i dd use i think, lord of blood, alexander, cariancfiligreed crest, ritual sword talisman
Are you using any talismans or armor that boosts bleed damage?
White mask then lords of bloods exultation
Tf I did the same thing without looking at this video
So this is what refined cheese tastes like.
not as strong but black flame tornado is pretty similar.
Hy ! What are you wearing ? I saw your stats but your armor and talismans ? 🤗
White mask, night cavalry armor, gauntlet, pants. talisman alexander shard, lords of blood exultation, ritual sword talisman. 😁
This is how mohg stole miquella so easily lol
ah yes the ultimate cheese
I tried this speat to test it to see how much damge it does and i was shocked that i melted malania like this
earrape
Can you pls tell us ur stats ?
Vig 30, Mind 20, sta 30, str 61, dex 24, int 20,fai 20, arc 30.gutz build. Suggest maximize the use of spear 50 arc.
What level was the spear? I can only get mine up to +7. I'll have to get to Farum to get the somber stones for a new weapon.
I think it was 9 because the jump trick on the abductors virgin is not patched yet during those time.
My favorite weapon! 🩸🔥
wait bro u have literally the exact same armor as me...

nihil vs malenia
Its funny ive beatin elden ring 2 times with 2 different builds and im about to beat it again on my 3rd build and I've haven't fought Malenia 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Everytime i click a malenia video on youtube and they start summoning, i stop watching lol
To be honest, this is exactly how i killed malenia on my first run, the mimic tear and the sacred spear need to be nerfed.
