Let Me Solo Her Finishes Brutal Malenia-Only Run Of Elden Ring from xhy082801's blog

Back in March, legendary Elden Ring Runes player Let Me Solo Her took on the challenge of unthinkable proportions: finishing a run by which every single enemy was Malenia. We’ve seen him slay this fearsome boss countless times, but surely this is too much Malenia to beat, even for him. Oh, who am I kidding? Of course, he conquered the task. Roughly twenty-four hours ago, on April 25, Let Me Solo Her wrapped his 10-hour playthrough from the “Everything is Malenia” run, having documented the entire journey on stream for that world to look at.

Let Me Solo Her, as his name implies, made waves by appearing in other players’ games to defend myself against one of the game’s most grueling bosses, Malenia, Blade of Miquella, on his own. His remarkable feats of Elden Ring mastery even earned him a sword from the game’s publisher, Bandai Namco. Having defeated Malenia so often, Let Me Solo Her set his sights on beating the sport using a mod that replaced each and every enemy, in the easily dispatched Godrick Soldiers towards the game's toughest bosses, with Malenia. And of course, he'd do so wearing only the jar helmet and imposing other restrictions on his run, just like a refusal to level up Vigor, which affects just how much damage your character may take. Let Me Solo Her has become taking another victory lap by god, he deserves it.

10 hours, many deaths, many crashes, with no vigor

“Took about 10 hours,” Let Me Solo Her says in the victory tweet, “and probably more deaths than I’d prefer to admit but I finally finished the Everything is Malenia Run!”

While according to him he died a lot more than he would’ve cared to, and the entire no leveling vigor thing might have been a bit much, you can tell he'd have fun doing it in the five-part stream documenting your way.

The challenge proved tough even for someone as skilled and experienced as Let Me Solo Her, however, it was even harder on his PC, which crashed several times trying to keep track of such a wild and demanding mod. Things got particularly rough partly three from the stream, where Let Me Solo Her said he'd to configure the sport at “the lowest setting possible” to help keep it running. And mind you, because he said when the sport first crashed partly one, he’s running an RTX 4080 in the computer—that’s a $1,200 graphics card.

’I’m not sadistic, I just such as this one particular boss’

Watching the Malenia-only streams, it’s hard to not think that Let Me Solo Her enjoys being cruel to himself. I mean, you can hear the pain in the voice following stream two because he takes on Draconic Malenia, the mod’s replacement for that Draconic Tree Sentinel.

But Let Me Solo Her assured the chat within the following stream this wasn’t an act of sadism. That said, he did state that the Malenia-only run was “hard, way harder than I thought it might be.” However, moments later he nonetheless told the chat, “You guys need this incidentally. It’s very, very fun.”

In the finale, Let Me Solo Her admitted that he'd lost count of how often he died. In the first stream alone, he explained, “I think [I died] a minimum of 20-something [times].”

Persisting through those deaths, though, Let Me Solo Her finally took down cheap elden ring runes Malenia, the replacement for that game’s final boss: Elden Beast. Thanking all his viewers, he expressed excitement about the upcoming DLC…and we can’t wait to determine what feats of stunning heroism he pulls off when that drops.
