malekith cheese elden ring

Here’s a cheese strategy guide for beating Malekith, the Black Blade in Elden Ring:

Step 1: Get the Mimic Tear summon. You can find the Mimic Tear ashes in Nokron, Eternal City.

Step 2: Upgrade your Mimic Tear as much as possible. The higher level your Mimic Tear is, the better it will be at tanking Malekith’s attacks.

Step 3: Equip a bunch of healing flasks and Crimsonwhorl Bubbletear physick. This will give you extra tankiness and healing to stay alive.

Step 4: For weapons, use a bleed weapon like the Rivers of Blood katana or Eleonora’s Poleblade. Bleed does massive damage to Malekith.

Step 5: When the fight starts, immediately summon your Mimic Tear.

Step 6: Let your Mimic Tear keep Malekith’s attention while you attack from behind. Hit him a few times then back off so your Mimic stays aggro’d on Malekith.

Step 7: Use your healing flasks and Crimsonwhorl physick whenever needed to stay alive. Your Mimic will also heal itself automatically.

Step 8: Apply bleed to Malekith as much as possible. Once he’s bleeding, back off and let your Mimic take aggro again.

Step 9: When Malekith enters Phase 2, keep doing the same thing. Your Mimic can tank his new, more aggressive attacks while you hit and run.

Step 10: Malekith will go down quickly once you’ve applied enough bleed damage with your mimic’s help. Just stay alive and keep healing!
