Competitive Landscape
Elden Ring’s second phase Malenia is notoriously difficult, but several methods can help you overcome this challenge. Bloodhound’s Step Ash of War grants rapid teleportation, allowing you to dodge her quick attacks and punish her openings. Alternatively, using Mimic Tear to summon an ally can divide her attention and create opportunities for strikes.
Value Proposition
Compared to other methods, Bloodhound’s Step offers greater mobility and control. However, Mimic Tear can provide a more consistent distraction and engage Malenia in combat, potentially creating more opportunities for damage. Additionally, it can inherit the player’s buffs, enhancing its survivability and offensive capabilities.
Value Proposition II
While both Bloodhound’s Step and Mimic Tear have their advantages, the best choice depends on your playstyle. If you prefer a more agile and evasive approach, Bloodhound’s Step is the superior option. However, if you favor summoning an ally to draw attention and create opportunities, Mimic Tear is the more effective strategy.
