Loved the interview section! So cool to see Indian players getting featured. Keep it up ER News team!

📚 Deep Dive — The Art of Solo-ing Malenia Without Summons

This is the ultimate flex in Elden Ring. Our guide walks you through frame-perfect dodging, stagger thresholds, and healing windows.

🌀 Phase 1: Waterfowl Dance Counter

Run away for the first flurry, roll into the second, and stand still for the third. Works every time with practice.

🌀 Phase 2: Scarlet Aeonia Dodge

Sprint diagonally right as she rises, then roll left when she slams down. You will avoid both the bloom and the rot.

Bonus: Use Bloodhound's Step if you want a safety net. No shame in that.
