Don't feel bad if you have to use a cheese method to take down Malenia in Elden Ring. The method can work with really any weapon set, but I found that the Rivers of Blood was the best Katana for shredding down her health bar with my build. High stagger weapons also work really well as her poise can be broken fairly easily for a boss type enemy. Malenia, Blade of Miquella may take many attempts but with this cheese boss guide you can take her down!

Having sufficient Elden Ring Runes is also very necessary if you want to complete the game more easily and quickly.

The first thing we’re going to do is we want to have the Shabriri's Woe, and then we’re going to take it off at the very start of the battle while Malenia is running towards us. The reason for doing this is it’s going to make her go towards our mimic instead of us, which allows us to just spam our attacks.

So, using the Rivers of Blood is really useful here since she is vulnerable to the bleed damage, as she also does it herself. But I think that the best thing you can do here is just spam Corpse Piler from the side, and whenever she does inevitably aggro on you, work on just dodging her attacks to the best of your ability. She has that really long Katana, making it difficult to dodge, but if you’re able to get to the side and just completely spam your attacks, she’ll be down in no time.

You really want the mimic to last to the second phase of this, and you do that by damaging her really quickly, as she’s going to heal herself as she hits you. So, watch out for the Waterfowl Dance. You want to get her down really quickly in this first phase.

For the second phase, it’s best to just stick back at the start, and you’ll see here what to do. But this is a kind of where you get stuck if she keeps healing herself and continually brings that health bar back up. During the second phase, we’re going to watch out for this attack, as she does of damage with it. As you can see, just watching for the petals because, as they come downwards, they’re going to hit you as well and deal damage. My mimic got hit by it; he didn’t get the memo. But this is now time to start spamming Corpse Piler again.

Now, I’ve also beaten her using a Strength build, so using heavy hammers you can stagger her really easily, but I found this weapon to work really well as she can be pretty quickly, and it takes down her health very fast. So, I would recommend using this if you got Rivers of Blood. If not, you can build for it, and it can be an incredibly powerful build.

I would also recommend that Shabriri's Woe that I talked with at the start is it gets her to focus on your mimic more so than you, and I found that to be a pretty powerful technique in some bosses that might be a bit more challenging, as she is very challenging. But watch out for this attack, stick it back, and let her do her thing, and then come in. Make sure you keep your FP high because you want to use your weapon arts as they deal a lot of damage.

Now she inflicted me with Scarlet Rot. Ideally, this doesn’t happen until right about now, as if you don’t pay attention, it will take you out. But that’s how you can cheese Malenia, Goddess of Rot, and Blade of Miquella in Elden Ring. Shabriri's Woe helps a lot, as well as using bleed damage.

The Bloody Butcher is a New Game Plus level 150 Dex Arcane build that’s going to focus on using 2 Reduvias and a grouping of Talismans that I feel synergize so well that they cause a devastating amount of damage to enemies and bosses in Elden Ring.

This build allows you to just run right through the game having little to no problem as you make your way through the Lands between.

Please make sure you have enough Elden Ring Runes ready before making this build.

How It Works?

In this Bloody Butcher build, we’ve set up the Reduvias to do not only a lot of damage with melee, but also with the Ash of War to completely destroy any boss or enemy that you’re going to come across in Elden Ring.

And honestly, I wanted to see if the Reduvia lived up to the hype after the most recent patch. This weapon has gone through a few different nerfs over the course of the entirety that Elden Ring has been out. So I wanted to take a stab at it to see if I could make this weapon very viable.

Weapon

Starting out with the stats of the Reduvia, I have Mind at + 9 and I have physical damage of '182+ 219'.

And you’re going to have a Strength scaling of 'E', a Dex scaling of 'C', and an Arcane scaling of 'B'. This is going to cause blood loss at 94 and it’s only going to require 5 strength, 13 dexterity and 13 Arcane to use. So, definitely an early game weapon, especially since you can get it in Limgrave after you defeat the Invader with Yura’s help.

Sadly, there is not a way to get a second Reduvia until you get to New Game Plus, unless you have somebody drop 1 for you. But that is the main reason that this is a New Game Plus build, is because both weapons can’t simultaneously exist in 1 playthrough.

Talismans

Moving on into the Talismans, we do have a few Talismans that will stack on top of each other, allowing your attack rating to absolutely skyrocket.

The first Talisman we’re going to be using is the Millicent's Prosthesis. This is an excellent Talisman that’s going to help boost your attack power. And the more times you hit your enemy, the more your attack power is going to boost, leaving you with a + 11% attack power boost with this particular Talisman.

However, it does stack with our second Talisman and that is the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia. This is also going to act very similar to Millicent's Prosthesis. However, it’s going to give you a higher rating for your attack power, leaving you with 13% attack power boost. But it does not give you the extra dexterity that the Millicent's Prosthesis does.

In Talisman slot number 3, we have the Lord of Blood’s Exultation, which is going to cause anytime there’s blood loss in the vicinity for our attack power to boost up by 20%. This is also going to stack with the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia and Millicent's Prosthesis, absolutely skyrocketing our attack power, thus making our damage go way up.

For Talisman slot number 4, we have the Shard of Alexander and this is going to greatly boost the attack power of our skills. Obviously, we’re going to be using the Reduvia Ash of War and we want that 15% extra damage that we can get from this Talisman to be applied to that weapon.

If you want to get these Talismans for the build, the Millicent’s Prosthesis and Rotten Winged Sword Insignia are going to be attained from Millicent’s questline.

However, I mentioned before that having 2 Reduvias is the only reason that this is a New Game Plus build. I misspoke, and this is actually the other reason that this is a New Game Plus build. You get both of these Talismans from Millicent’s questline, but you cannot do it within the same playthrough because of the decisions you have to make in her questline: one decision is going to leave you with Millicent’s Prosthesis and the other is going to leave you with the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia.

The Lord of Blood’s Exultation is going to be found in the Lindell Leyndell Catacombs after you defeat the boss there, but be careful because he does a ton of bleed damage and can kill you rather quickly.

Lastly, the Shard of Alexander is going to be received from Alexander’s questline.

Flask

For your Flask of Wondrous Physick, you’re going to be using 2 particular tiers that I feel benefit the build very well. But if you find that you want to swap one of these out, I will also let you know what some substitutions could be if you want to put something different in this build.

First and foremost, we’re using the Dexterity-knot Crystal Tear, because we have a lot more Arcane than we do Dexterity with this particular build, just so we can get a lot of our bleed damage off. But this is going to give us + 10 Dexterity after we drink our flask, allowing us, when we do get up close and personal with the Reduvia. Because your physical damage with the Reduvia is going to scale a lot better with Dex than it will with Arcane.

For the second tear in our flask, we’re using the Thorny Cracked Tear, one of my all-time favorite tears in Elden Ring. And this is going to temporarily boost your successive attack power. As you attack more and more, this tear is going to give you a 20% increase in your attack power, thus allowing us to get more damage poured into the build.

The Dexterity-knot Crystal Tear is going to be located in the Liurnia of the Lakes, so you can get it pretty easily. It’s going to be on a very small island, which is in the southwest of the Boilprawn Shack.

However, the Thorny Cracked Tear is going to be a much later game tier, found in the Consecrated Snowfield, after you kill the Putrid Avatar guarding the Minor Erdtre in the north.

If you do want to substitute one of these tears out, I highly recommend you keep the Thorny Crack Tear in here. But you can take the Dexterity-knot Crystal Tear out for a Stamina tear, just because you are going to be eating through Stamina with daggers and you’re attacking so fast. Or, if you find you get hit more times than not, possibly putting the Opaline Bubbletear in there to give you a little of grace in that area would be good for your build.

Armor

For your armor, you can use absolutely anything you want as long as you get over that 51 Poise mark.

The only armor piece that I would recommend for this build is using the White Mask because that’s going to give you a 10% increase in your attack power if blood loss is in the vicinity. This is going to stack with every Talisman we have and our Flask of Wondrous Physick, so it’s going to synergize with the build very well overall.

And if you want to get this mask, you can venture into Mohgwyn Palace and you’ll fight 3 Assassins there and the third Assassin will drop this for you.

Stats

The very last thing I’m going to show you here is my build stats.

I’m currently at level 169. Although most of those extra stats are only into Vigor, everything else can be attained exactly at 150.

So, I would do 50 Vigor, 15 Mind, 23 Endurance, 12 Strength, 30 Dexterity, 9 Intelligence, 25 Faith (if you have extra stats), and 80 Arcane. Then, your Reduvia will hit as hard as possible, getting those massive chunks of hemorrhage off on your enemy.

If you do have the extra Faith, obviously using Flame, Grant Me Strength and Golden Vow is going to give you more damage overall, so I highly recommend those as well.

5. Wing of Astel

Number five on our list is Wing of Astel. This is a weapon that truly packs a cosmos punch. This unique weapon falls into the same category as Bastard’s Stars. Both have Nebula Ash of War, which creates a powerful cosmos effect.

What sets Wing of Astel apart is its ability to unleash powerful explosions within Nebula, each blast causing massive damage.

To fully use its power, you need to master the timing of these explosions, making it a weapon with precision. It’s available early in the game if you start Ranni’s Quest, and works equally well for PVE and PVP.

4. Eleonora’s Poleblade

In fourth place is Eleonora’s Poleblade. This is the perfect weapon for those who want to unleash Inner Samurai. This powerful weapon offers a range of moves and abilities, including the unique Ash of War. It turns you into a Relentless Samurai, cutting down enemies with a barrage of attacks.

But what really stands out about this weapon is its blood effect. Obtaining it requires completing Bloody Finger Hunter Yura Questline. This will be more appealing to those who like Redemption Arc in the character’s story.

Whether you’re playing the role of a vengeful warrior or want a high-damage weapon, Eleonora’s Poleblade has you covered.

3. Maliketh’s Black Blade

Third, we introduce Maliketh’s Black Blade. This weapon is perfect for players who like Destined Death skill. It will allow you to chip away at your opponent’s health while preventing them from regenerating health.

Maliketh’s Black Blade can be paired with Black Knife to create a powerful combination. Its damage output is excellent, and watching an enemy’s health dwindle over time is especially satisfying.

Therefore, it’s well worth investing more Elden Ring Runes in this weapon set. Whether you want to prank your enemies or deal massive damage, this weapon is your best choice. Notably, you can also use the code “CSCCA” to get 5% off.

2. Moonveil Katana

Ranked second is Moonveil Katana, a Katana that combines the power of Samurai with Full Moon Sorceries. This weapon is relatively quick to acquire and provides an exciting gameplay experience.

Moonveil Katana allows you to attack enemies from a distance with two original attacks, both of which apply a blood effect.

What makes this weapon unique is its versatility. Whether it's melee or ranged combat, Moonveil Katana is suitable for both. It’s perfect for those who want to fuse Samurai gameplay style with Sorceries, creating a character who wields both swords and powerful magic.

Plus, it synergizes well with spells and incantations, making it ideal for Mage builds.

1. Dark Moon Greatsword

Finally, the number one strongest weapon in Elden Ring is Dark Moon Greatsword. This weapon offers a truly exciting experience, combining stunning visuals with incredible power.

With Ash of War, Dark Moon Greatsword imbues your attacks with Cold Sorceries, delivering devastating blows that will leave your enemies in tatters.

To get this weapon, you need to complete Ranni’s quest and defeat Radahn. Whether you want to use it as a divine powerhouse or use it as a heavy sword to bludgeon your enemies, Dark Moon Greatsword is a top choice. It will guarantee you a great time in Elden Ring.
