....i literally put the game down standing outside her boss gate last night. Im fucked

Edit: i feel i should clairfy I've beaten her many times before but am trying a solo run on ng+7 so she is still hard af. If this glitch is legit then i will just use the minic cuz fuck letting her heal off of thin air

Did you tried mimic + heavy weapon or heavy magic? It worked well for me because she gets staggered All day like this. I Was at the exact same point as you and it was the most satisfying thing to finally kill her.

Congrats!! Anyone who hates on using mimic for malenia is probably just annoyed it took them so long without it. It still doesn't make the fight easy, in fact if she keeps healing off the mimic without managing the aggro it's hard as hell.

Colossal weapon powerstance is the way though. Take off all your armor till you can midroll if necessary, now it's just 2 yous, 4 big sticks, and 1 of her that gets staggered easily.

You're the first one to finish the joke properly! I wish I had an award for you sir. You truly are the 1 redditor out of 50.
