Difficulty: 9.5/10 doing her legit (hardest boss in the game) - 5/10 if using cheese method (see below)
Strategy: Technically the hardest boss in the game, but can be made very simply with the right attack. First, get the the Ash of War: Hoarfrost Stomp, from the lake south-east of Caria Manor (hit the moving white line in the lake to reveal a scarab that drops it, as seen in the video). This Ash of War makes the boss an absolute joke. Equip it to a high damage weapon, like a Greatsword. Also level it up as far as you can (mine was Level 24), otherwise you don't deal much damage. Also make sure you have the Mimic Tear Ashen remains (fully leveled up).
Now the Malenia strategy is simple: summon your fully leveled Mimic Tear ashens, stand behind them, spam the Hoarfrost Stomp at Malenia. Repeat in her 2nd phase. You can kill her in a minute with this one attack, it deals large AoE frost damage. I had my Hoarfrost Stomp assigned to Frost Damage. Your Mimic Tear will spam the same move, thus essentially stunlocking Malenia the entire time, especially if you can push her into a corner. Always run away when she focuses on you, let her focus on your Mimic. Place your attacks so they hit where your Mimic stands, Malenia will walk into it and you'll be at safe distance. In her 2nd phase when she does her flying attack that casts a sort of rot flower after she lands, run straight when she flies up and she'll miss you. The flower deals some rot damage but if she's near death you can rush in and finish her off quick, as she's completely defenseless and doesn't move while in the flower (but don't do it unless her health is nearly depleted as it will put Rot on you).
If you've been playing a mage so far, keep this boss for last (can still go here after final story boss), then respec your character to a strength melee build at Rennala in the Academy of Raya Lucaria, max out a Greatsword at the smith.
Reward: Malenia's Great Rune, Remembrance of the Rot Goddess, 480,000
