The elden ring The community seems to agree that Malenia is the most challenging boss in the game, but whether you hate fighting or love it, there’s one ability she has that feels particularly oppressive: The Waterfowl Dance. It’s a move that leaves no room for error and even punishes those who manage to fend off each attack by tackling the boss leaving players with few defensible options. However, this week a player discovered an equivalent to that movement that stops it in its tracks before it even begins.
Malenia’s Waterfowl Dance, for those who haven’t yet hit her to get a weapon from her memory and see the weapon’s unique skill, is the attack where the boss jumps into the air before swinging his blade violently as the player lunges. She makes one wave of attacks, pauses, performs another wave, jumps into the air again, and sets a slightly longer final chain of attacks. Being hit by one of these flips can often result in death as they can shock the player, and even if you use a shield to fend off attacks, it still counts as a boss hit which means it heals.
If you are tired of trying to time your quirks right, just do what Redditor does and elden ring player Poisonous birds 7 He did and threw freezer pots at Malinia to get her out of the attack at first. The launcher shared the video below to show how simple it is. You simply toss a bowl at Malenia the moment you see it jump up in the air, and it’s back down.

These freezer pots are made from ritual pots, not crack pots, so you’ll need the first along with other resources to make the throwable pot. Fortunately for those who may not have all of these pieces yet, the player continued the video afterwards to show where these resources can be collected. You’ll probably be able to beat Malenia in the time it takes you to gather the recipe and ingredients anyway, but it’s a handy trick if you’re really stuck.
As others have pointed out, it appears as if this is a feature that has been kept from Sekiro: Shadows die twice Where you can sometimes nullify the enemy’s attack with a well-timed shuriken. elden ring Players who’ve fought Malenia over and over again may have noticed that she’s also able to break out of this attack after taking bleeding damage from something like Swarm of Flies Incantation, but this method provides a much clearer cause and effect to understand what and what stops Malinia’s attacks.
