The past 24 hours have seen the rise of a living legend. Elden Ring is packed with ridiculously powerful bosses, but it’s fairly universally accepted that Malenia is one of, if not the toughest of them all.
We’ve previously seen people grinding for hours to take her out, only to be slammed back into the dirt over and over again. Maybe you’ve been there yourself, or maybe you’re there now, praying for an end to the pain. Well, if you’re playing on PC, your prayers might end up being answered by none other than a naked person with a pot on their head. Yes, I’m being serious.
If you want to see more people be way better at Elden Ring than they have any right to be, take a look at this player beating the game using a dance mat.
Behold “Let me solo her”, a regular player who’s been doing God’s work by helping others take out the bothersome boss flawlessly, and basically completely in the buff. Their heroic ordeals were first brought to light over on the r/Eldenring subreddit by a number of people who were blessed with their assistance.

“It was a man, wearing nothing but a jar on his head, holding [two] katanas, named ‘let me solo her’. I considered against it. But I was curious, and who am I to deny him his wish?” u/sazed813 wrote, recalling their encounter. “The man took no damage except from some rot on the flower attack. He was flawless, and put all my attempts to shame. I definitely didn't kill Malenia, but either way, she is dead.”
“Shoutout to my fellow Furled Finger named ‘Let me solo her’, who lived up to his name for 1v1ing the hardest boss in the game while the host and I watched and clapped in the sidelines!” shared u/gabsuLoL.
At first, it seemed like “Let me solo her” could be some kind of myth - a mirage fabricated by the minds of those desperately trying to defeat Malenia, but no. The player has now made themselves known: “If you've been playing Elden Ring and have tried to fight Malenia on PC, you might've crossed paths with a summon called ‘Let me solo her’,” wrote u/KleinTsuboiOW. “I've been helping countless tarnished in their quest to defeat Malenia by going butt naked except for a Jar on my head. […] My sign will be down for desperate Tarnished as always.”
In case you were in any doubt, as you can see above, they even posted a video of their exploits to YouTube, so you know it’s legit. No doubt that their services are going to be in high demand after this, but if you’re in need of help, you know who to call.
