Malenia kick my ass

[Witch]

I know the pattern of first form (even if i fail dodging his stupid aoe ability 1/3 of the time), but when i get to the 2nd form she always jump for do every moves, so i don't know how to react :(

Past 4-6 hours on it, i feel i gonna past 20hours on it like my first smough & ornstein attempt :( .

Take a break my dude, sometimes coming back to it fresh and bushy-tailed will do you good.

There are plenty of grinding spots if you wanna get a few levels under your belt before you go back.

Levels won't change anything, i'm lvl 120 with 2 +25 weapons.

[Drukaris]

do you have enough vigor?

[Chicken]

I cheese her with power stance bleed build + Mimic tear.
Even tho I say cheese it still took me 10+ tried to learn wtf she gonna do next.

[Witch]

i'm doing that, but, the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ pattern of phase 2 is nonsense - i saw the vid with a guy doing it but he just slam her before she jumps everywhere. I need a vid where i can see pattern.

Lobos Jr fought her for 13 hours, check his twitch. You should find something in the vods. All I can say, is (haven't fought her yet) don't be discouraged. Some of the best players in the world take a very long time to learn the fight.

I know it's silly to ask, but have you tried not trying to win at all and just spending 5-10 minutes trying to dodge her attacks/learn her movesets?
Like that attack leads to a 3 combo with a delay on the last hit etc?

I did the previously mentioned method but I never stayed close to her when I had aggro. I let my Mimic take aggro before I went back in to bleed her to death.

thx. Better to watch it than repeat 50000 times first phase and get 2 shots in 2nd phase.

I spent over 10 hours to finally be able to beat her solo.

Now I'm able to help other ppl killing that boss without much trouble.

Don't give up, as ppl said try to learn her pattern, she has alot of openings in phase 2 allowing you to hit her between almost each combo.

Oh and level 120 should be enough ye :D But you can still come 20 levels later if you feel that it will make a difference

I didn't spend that much time on her maybe an hour or two?
It was rough, the way I played it after the first couple of deaths was if I get hit by waterfowl before phase 2 I just let it kill me.
Since the second phase had instant kill mechanics if I wasn;'t full hp
(25%+ absorbtion armor and 40 vigor and still being near one shotted.. this wasnt nG+)
It's a rough fight and needs a lot of healing and smart rolling.
The problem is she has at least 6 different roll catch combos and waterfowl dance is like 5 roll catches by itself because of how quickly it happens.
you will die without light rolling to waterfowl more often then not.
The boss fight is a lot eaiser with light rolling.
I suggest literally taking off armor to fight her.
She can be parried.
She can be staggered
She can be frostbitten.

i tryed the light roll but a single mistake and you die, so i prefer keep my scale armor. I play without shield - i use the bloodhound step for the waterfowl but i still don't really understand timing.
