Mages work great for elden beast, certain spells like rock sling have more range than you think in that fight, and you can actually DPS a lot more with a mage against elden beast that with melee weapons in a fight where the boss tends to kite you around the area by moving huge distances at random. If you're a mage, you can kite the boss, instead of the boss kiting you when you use a melee weapon. Stack holy resist on your mage, so optimize your armor for that resist type, use the talisman, the physique potion resist buff, and Lord's divine fortification, you can get like 75 res+ to that damage type, so even if you eat a holy slash or 2, it's not that big of a deal. Eating one of them did like 1/4 of my HP bar. Even eating a big holy nova did about 1/3rd of my bar. EZ PZ, just stack holy resists and toss rocks, and maybe get a comet azur in during a stance break if you're close enough to land it.

Assuming you can even get in range. The Elden beast fight is "chase the rabbit" for 10 minutes. That thing just runs away immediately at the first sight of you.

I'm enjoying the fact that levels don't matter much in Elden Ring.

Being 120 has its advantages (more health, especially) and access to weapons, elden bling, and incants, which I enjoy;

but my girlfriend is still playing a starting level samurai (which is 10, or something) because she doesn't trust a random spirit appearing from thin air.
Naturally, she's locked to +3 weapons and not having a hub

I gotta say, she's doing pretty well

==================
TLDR: Don't sweat it. The higher you go - the harder it is seems to find co-op though

I saw someone parry Malenia to death. At level 1.

Naked.

With a club.

Honestly, you can see it on youtube.

Anyway, 50 vigor, 70 strength and if you're using the "death blade" from that wolf boss, 20 faith (and I think 12 dex). To use it. Summon mimic. Do the special attacks. Have heal flasks and basically jump attack with safe hits when she's distracted with the mimic and get what hits you can. Press her hard and aggresive while staying behind her unless she comes for you. In which case back off until mimic draws agro.

I'll fight her more fairly in a plus run. Her healing is just BS. It better not heal her more in plus runs.

I'm at 152
There are some late game grind areas that really help push you way beyond 100
(Mogh's Palace approach, I am looking at you)
At around 150 you can pretty well mash anything in your way, except Malenia and end-game bosses.

are you using sorcery vs her? she has EXTREME magic resist. that is also normally a super early game boss, i beat the game around 130 i think

Hmm will she take more damage from my glintstone sword? Or does that also count as magic damage since it scales on int?

Well, look at the weapon and see how much magic damage it does...

Lvl can vary depending on builds. It can get pretty high if you're going for a hybrid build, I believe I was around lvl 140/150 when I beat the game.
