'Let Me Solo Her' Prepares for Shadow of the Erdtree in Elden Ring

Elden Ring's famed "Let Me Solo Her" shifts focus from Malenia to Shadow of the Erdtree's challenging boss, Messmer the Impaler. Known for his incredible Malenia defeats, this YouTuber is now lending his expertise to players struggling with the DLC's mandatory boss fight.

Malenia, previously Elden Ring's toughest boss, has been arguably surpassed in difficulty by Messmer the Impaler. Many players find Messmer particularly frustrating due to the fight's mandatory nature within the story progression, making solo completion a significant hurdle.

Let Me Solo Her, also known as Klein Tsuboi, has recently transitioned his YouTube streams to assisting players with Messmer. Following a "Final Malenia soloing stream," he's declared Messmer his new challenge, even titling a recent video "Let me solo him." This aligns with his February intention to retire from Malenia before the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC launch.

Elden Ring Legend Assists with Messmer the Impaler

True to his style, Let Me Solo Her tackles Messmer with his signature minimalist loadout: two katanas, a jar helmet, and a loincloth. Despite this unconventional approach, he consistently inflicts significant damage. His legendary Malenia battles, numbering over 6,000 according to reports, have paved the way for his new undertaking. Prior to the DLC's release, he expressed anticipation for Messmer and the increased challenge.

The Shadow of the Erdtree DLC has drawn criticism for its difficulty, with some fans advising against purchase. In response, FromSoftware issued an update aimed at improving the overall player experience. Bandai Namco also suggested leveling up the Scadutree Blessing to aid in defeating the new bosses. However, for players still struggling, the chance of encountering Let Me Solo Her in co-op offers a glimmer of hope for conquering the formidable Messmer the Impaler.
