Defeat Maliketh in Elden Ring: How to do it safely

Maliketh is a legendary opponent in Elden Ring. Defeat him for 220,000 runes and the Echo of the Black Blade. Maliketh, the Black Blade appears as soon as you have slain the Beast Cleric.

• To counterattack in the best possible way, place the Blasphemous Claw on a shortcut key before starting the battle. You received this in the fight against Recusant Bernahl

• From time to time, Maliketh’s blade will light up gold. Use the Blasphemous Claw at this precise moment to inflict damage. Keep a close eye on Maliketh at all times.

• The Blasphemous Claw ensures that he is out of action. During this time, you have the opportunity to counterattack massively. Maliketh needs some time to return to the fight

• Have enough healing flasks with you to make up for any damage quickly. When Maliketh attacks, you should dodge wherever possible. Ideally, you should dodge behind him to deal single damage

• Continue fighting in this way to achieve a secure victory. You should not experiment with this boss. The fight can be tedious and take time, but you will definitely defeat Maliketh this way
