An enterprising pair of Elden Ring players going by the name “Let Us Duo Her” have invented a new method for cheesing one of Elden Ring’s toughest bosses, using a simple combination of weapons and techniques introduced by the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Malenia, Blade of Miquella is without doubt one of the toughest bosses offered up by Elden Ring’s based game, featuring a range of lightning swift sword strokes and rot-infused attacks that work in concert to melt the player’s health bar while frustratingly regenerating her own. Now, a pair of players have taken to Reddit to reveal a new — and vaguely humiliating — method of cheesing the troublesome boss by harnessing the new hand-to-hand fighting style introduced by the new DLC. As shown in a Reddit video spotted by PC Gamer, the pair, who have branded themselves “Let Us Duo Her”, were summoned into battle as co-operators while donning the Dane’s Footwork gear, which was equipped with the Dryleaf Whirlwind ash of war. NEW Malenia Cheese (Let us duo her)#ELDENRING #EldenRingDLC oRezyn [Hidden Content] — ELDEN RING Alerts (@EldenringAlerts) July 7, 2024 Upon entering the boss chamber, the Tarnished who had summoned the duo stood back as the unorthodox pair took it in turns to unleash kick upon kick against the boss, which locked her into a stun animation that went unbroken for the entire first stage of the ******. The ordinarily troublesome boss was then granted a brief reprieve following the mid-battle cutscene to unleash her fearsome Scarlet Aeonia *******, before being savagely kicked into oblivion by the scantily clad warriors. “Inspired from ‘Let me solo her’, we adopted ‘Let us duo her’ to introduce the world to the Malenia cheese we discovered while playing around with the new DLC weapons,” wrote Reddit user oRezyn, who posted the footage. The build apparently needed no specialised talismans to stunlock Malenia, though oRezyn has warned that the stagger could have been interrupted if the summoning player had chosen to get involved. Malenia’s Haligtree arena has borne witness to a slew of extraordinary challenge feats in the years following Elden Ring’s 2022 release, along with the rise of the community co-op hero “Let Me Solo Her”, who specialised in taking down the rot-infused demigod. Of course the attention has long since shifted away from Malenia and towards the new cast of brutally difficult bosses introduced by the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

Initial Zenless Zone Zero revenue figures are out, and it looks like HoYoverse' latest gacha release is raking in heaps of cash. According to App Magic - a website that tracks mobile game revenue - the game has made over $25 million not even a week since its launch. These figures place the game at a similar money-making pace as other HoYoverse titles include Honkai: Star Rail and Genshin Impact. It's also worth noting that this figure doesn't take into account PC or console income, which the game will be benefiting from due to its simultanious release across all platforms. For reference, Honkai: Star Rail made a whopping £81 million in its first month across PC and mobile, while Genshin Impact brought home a wild $143 million dollars during the height of the COVID 19 pandemic. If Zenless Zone Zero keeps up the momentum, it's likely it can pass the $100 million mark with ease. If you include PC and console income too - figures we don't have access to - it's surely an incredible figure. Read more View the full article

Intel reportedly won't be making any Core Ultra 9 F CPUs, with all the new top-end Intel Arrow Lake CPUs apparently coming with an intact GPU. If this rumor is true, it would mark a significant change in Intel's product stack, which has previously enabled gamers to save some money on their CPU, as they don't have to pay for a weedy integrated GPU they won't use. Intel has been making F-series CPUs for over five years, when the Core i9 9900KF came out without an integrated GPU, and there are several Intel F-series processors on our guide to the best gaming CPU. If you plan to use one of the best graphics cards in your PC, then there's little need to pay the extra money for a non-F CPU, unless you want to use it as a backup in case your GPU fails.
