Elden Ring's legendary Let Me Solo Her shifts focus from Malenia to the challenging Messmer the Impaler. This renowned YouTuber, known for assisting countless players in defeating Malenia since Elden Ring's 2022 launch, is now lending his expertise to conquering the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC's formidable boss.
Malenia, once considered Elden Ring's toughest boss, has been rivaled by Messmer the Impaler in the DLC. What makes Messmer particularly daunting for many is the mandatory nature of his fight for story progression, creating a significant hurdle for solo players.
Let Me Solo Her (Klein Tsuboi), however, is providing a lifeline. Recent streams showcase his assistance in defeating Messmer, following a "Final Malenia soloing stream" that signaled his shift in focus. His latest video, aptly titled "Let me solo him," confirms this transition, a move anticipated since his February declaration of potential Malenia retirement.
Elden Ring Legend Tackles Messmer: A Familiar Approach
True to form, Let Me Solo Her tackles Messmer with his signature minimalist approach: two katanas, a jar helmet, and a loincloth. This iconic attire doesn't diminish his effectiveness; he continues to inflict significant damage. His dedication to assisting players is evident in his reported 6,000+ Malenia defeats over the past two years. Even before the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC's release, he expressed intrigue regarding Messmer and the expansion's difficulty.
The DLC's challenging nature has drawn criticism, with some Elden Ring fans advising against purchase. In response, FromSoftware released an update intended to improve the overall DLC experience. Bandai Namco also suggested leveling up the Scadutree Blessing to aid in overcoming the new bosses. However, for those still struggling, the chance of encountering Let Me Solo Her in co-op offers a welcome solution to the dreaded Messmer the Impaler.
