In preparation for Shadow of the Erdtree I was cleaning up bosses in order to be able to access the DLC area.
In addition I also wanted to get rid of Malenia, the most cursed boss in this game... or any FromSoft game for that matter.
After failing miserably going in blind, I changed my approach by reading up on her online.
She only does physical damage (barring the Scartlet Rot buildup in phase 2) and is practically immune to both poison and Scarlet Rot herself (second one makes sense tbh).
Just for this single boss I finally upgraded and used Mimic Tear, in order to more or less keep her with broken stance and drain her of blood as fast as I can.
All in all I think I spent around 5 to 6 hours nibbling at her, until I got a lucky run.
After switching to the new approach I was pretty much consistently getting into phase 2.
Best of luck to you as well
