I'd give Maliketh the spot for the 3rd hardest boss in Elden Ring behind Radagon/Elden Beast and Malenia. What's your top 3?

[shadexvii]

I mean…he’s the guardian of destined death, feared by all demigods. Of course he’d be an absolute monster of a fight

[jade]

i have more trouble with beast clergyman then maliketh 😭

[kvpodmj]

maliketh is one of, if not my favorite boss fights in all of soulsborne. he’s also the boss i struggled the most with in my blind playthrough, but i still look forward to fighting him every time.

[JuanSchwartz]

I get it. They want the bosses to look huge. But from soft needs to back that camera up a few hundred feet. Half the battle is even seeing your opponent.

[souptikdam]

He dosent fucking sit still for one goddamn second, how tf am i supposed to kill something i cant even touch?!

[jamie]

You can use the blasphemous claw to parry his ranged attacks and certain melee attacks too, his sword will glow yellow before a parry-able melee attack and if you get it, it stuns him leaving him wide open for attacks

[nax]

definitely one of the most fun fights in elden ring once you learn his moveset

[nathanielchapman]

At least he doesn’t heal when he hits you and Maliketh’s HP is half a full bar, unlike some cheap-ass scarlet-thot

[mh]

Maliketh should’ve had a second health bar would have given him a better spot when it comes to hardest boss

[___king___]

This is the one boss in the game that deserved a second health bar like melania for second phase. Such a good and fair fight

[samthepigman]

I'd actually say 1st phase is a lot harder to learn than 2nd phase, maliketh becomes extremely easy once you learn his moves, most of his attacks you can just counter by standing directly under him, yoy don't even need to roll

[Roronoa-]

The developers made sure that he’s maliketh that is feared by demigods

[theportaldestroyer]

i remember the feeling on my 3rd playthrough where i was doing a strength build w giant crusher and combined with my mastery of the fight from previous attempts i first tried it without needing to heal it was amazing

[MarcoMega]

Maliketh might be the boss that best showcases how different ER bosses are from DS3, and how you shouldn't approach them in the same way.
In both phases, positioning is really important in creating openings and helps dictate what moves he will do; you'll have a lot of trouble if you just try to mash circle and R1without thought for position, direction, and distance. You can also jump over a lot of attacks in this fight, letting you get hits in while still in the middle of combos. You really don't ever have to trade damage or rely on RNG (of which there is very little).

[gafflord]

Maliketh is the one boss that makes me nervous every time I make that first run up the stairs to him in a playthrough.

[uroy]

Maliketh is soo fun to fight. He has very large combos, but also, before attacking, he always has a window or when the attack finishes but is necessary to be well positioned to punish him.
I wish he had just a tiny more health because is super fragile.

[MiletusWhitethorn]

The first phase is easy for me but the combos in the second phase is just brutal

[brandonsalisbury]

I actually love this fight definitely one of my favorites in ER! Also the huge pillars in this fight arena I use for cover in both phases of the fight especially when your low in hp & need a few moments to heal!

[ivanayala]

Even after beating him many times it still feels like it was insurmountable till you do it by how crazy it gets
