Legendary Tarnished: Let Me Solo Her Embarks on Shadow of the Erdtree Quest

Elden Ring's famed "Let Me Solo Her" shifts focus from Malenia to the challenging Messmer the Impaler. This legendary YouTuber, known for assisting countless players in conquering Malenia since Elden Ring's 2022 launch, is now lending his expertise to the new Shadow of the Erdtree DLC boss.

Malenia, Blade of Miquella, was long considered Elden Ring's ultimate hurdle. However, Messmer the Impaler has quickly earned a similar reputation, posing a significant challenge for many players. Adding to the difficulty, unlike Malenia, defeating Messmer is crucial for story progression in the DLC, making solo completion particularly frustrating.

Fortunately, Let Me Solo Her (Klein Tsuboi online) is streaming his assistance on YouTube, helping players overcome this formidable foe. Following a "Final Malenia soloing stream," he's clearly dedicated his efforts to Messmer, as evidenced by his recent video, "Let me solo him." This transition was anticipated, given his February announcement of a potential Malenia retirement prior to the DLC's release.

Elden Ring Legend Takes on Messmer the Impaler

True to his style, Let Me Solo Her tackles Messmer with his iconic minimal equipment: two katanas, a jar helmet, and a loincloth. Despite this seemingly inadequate gear, his skill consistently inflicts significant damage. His dedication is evident – he's reportedly fought Malenia over 6,000 times since the game's release. Upon the Shadow of the Erdtree announcement, Let Me Solo Her expressed intrigue regarding Messmer and the DLC's difficulty.

The DLC's challenging nature has drawn criticism from some Elden Ring players, prompting FromSoftware to release an update aimed at improving overall difficulty. Bandai Namco also suggested players level up the Scadutree Blessing to aid in defeating the new bosses. However, for those still struggling, the chance of encountering Let Me Solo Her in co-op offers a beacon of hope against the dreaded Messmer the Impaler.
