Elden Ring: How to Instantly Kill Malenia (No fight, skip 2nd phase) 1.08.1 (Patched in 1.09)

It's "Offhand Stance Swap glitch",
Right hand: any weapon with skill Erdtree Slam (Rotten Staff or Staff of the Avatar)
Left hand: Uchigatana and any weapon with ASH OF WAR: GRAVITAS.
After swap, holding Weapon Skill button (LT on xbox controller) until boss die.

You didn't kill Malenia. It just took so long for you to fall to your death that the scarlet rot inside her finally did her in.

This looks like it takes more skill than beating her

[DarbyDumont]

On the one hand this is a great trick. On the other hand, it was such a thrill to put her in her place “the real way”.

[Jullkenberg]

My man went all the way to find Miquella

[birdbrain]

For the two people that actually pulled this off I'm sorry for the patch 🥺

[walls_of_skulls]

I’d recommend shabriri’s woe for this, equip before the fight, summon mimic and unequip. It’ll draw her aggro like crazy

[okname]

pro tip: mimic heals when YOU are at low health

[gondalfonsin]

Mimic: ok bro! We got her this time! Yeah this time for sure! With the power of friendshi— dude what the…where the fu€&@ did he go?

[matthewfateful]

This took more skill & critical thinking than the fight itself 😭

[zztraderzz]

ah yes, this looks much easier than just fighting her...

[jebes]

sir i must say, 'you're glitch power

[gabryx]

Imagine you're an Elden Ring boss and you see a blue semi-naked man walking through the fog. I'd just give up man

[marcusjohnson]

I'll take my W the legit way. Even if it did take me a week and half to beat Malenia.

[ArcRay]

never expected the same trick used for the final boss to work elsewhere. i mean i would expect it to, just not be doable in-game.

[Trwnet]

You can can do all this or just spam Blasphemous Blade's weapon art.

[FastAkira]

The amount of things needed to avoid the fight is hilarious

[waynecribb]

What do you do to be able to jump the first roots? I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong or missing.

[itzumi]

Okay I found a bug recently, after 106 hours of elden ring I finally reached Malenia. but shyt happens. While fighting her I stagger and pushed her against the wall, the left side after the entrance where there's 2 roots. then she suddenly dodge back (INSIDE THE WALL) putting her put of bounce and died instantly... WORST SOULS GAME EXPERIENCE FOR ME LOL, EVEN WORST THAN DYING 20+ AGAINTS A BOSS.

[lilithlee]

😄Thank you for tip! It still works well!

[Katinara-addiction]

She fell under the map when I walked in😂
