Elden Ring Legend "Let Me Solo Her" Battles Shadow of the Erdtree

Elden Ring's renowned player, Let Me Solo Her, shifts focus from Malenia to conquer the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC's challenging boss, Messmer the Impaler. Famous for assisting countless players in defeating Malenia since Elden Ring's 2022 launch, Let Me Solo Her now lends his expertise to Messmer.

Malenia, Blade of Miquella, was long considered Elden Ring's ultimate hurdle. However, Messmer the Impaler, introduced in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, has proven to be an equally formidable opponent. Adding to the difficulty, unlike Malenia, defeating Messmer is crucial for story progression, making solo completion a significant challenge for many.

Fortunately, Let Me Solo Her, also known as Klein Tsuboi, is providing assistance. He's recently streamed numerous playthroughs on his YouTube channel, showcasing his mastery over Messmer. His "Final Malenia soloing stream" signaled a transition to Messmer as his primary focus, evident in his latest video, aptly titled "Let me solo him." This aligns with his February announcement of potentially retiring from Malenia before the DLC's release.

Elden Ring Legend Tackles Messmer: A New Challenge

True to his style, Let Me Solo Her confronts Messmer with his signature minimalist loadout: two katanas, a jar helmet, and a loincloth. Despite this unconventional attire, his skill remains unmatched, delivering substantial damage consistently. Having reportedly battled Malenia over 6,000 times since Elden Ring's release, he now brings his legendary prowess to the new boss. Let Me Solo Her previously expressed anticipation for Messmer and the DLC's difficulty.

The Shadow of the Erdtree DLC's difficulty has sparked debate among players, with some criticizing its high challenge and advising against purchase. In response, FromSoftware released an update aimed at improving the overall player experience. Publisher Bandai Namco also suggests leveling up the Scadutree Blessing to aid in defeating the new bosses. However, for those still struggling, the prospect of encountering Let Me Solo Her in co-op offers a welcome solution to overcome the formidable Messmer the Impaler.
