The well-known modder and YouTuber Bushy has set a new challenge in Elden Ring. (Almost) Every enemy is transformed into the hardest boss, Malenia, by a mod.
This challenge is about: In the Elden Ring community, the YouTuber Bushy is known for his brutal challenges. He played the already difficult game using only a torch as a weapon or without ever utilizing a Site of Grace.
His latest experiment has (once again) targeted the optional boss Malenia, who has reached an almost legendary status among many Elden Ring players. She is considered one of the, if not the hardest boss in the game and has driven many players insane.
Now, however, Bushy has decided that one Malenia is not enough for him and has fixed this problem with a mod:
- Every boss in the game becomes Malenia
- (Almost) Every normal enemy becomes Malenia
- Every animal, whether aggressive or not, also becomes Malenia.
The only exceptions are the dung beetles, which continue to act as running treasure chests, and invader NPCs.
While the mod undeniably makes the game significantly harder, it also creates extremely funny situations where Bushy is chased and dismantled by a horde of women with swords. In the video on his channel, you can see that even harmless dogs and sheep become Malenia:
In his recordings, you can see that not every Malenia is equally strong. While the scaling is still brutal, some of them are weaker or have less HP, depending on which enemy they replace.
Despite the difficulty, the YouTuber manages to complete Elden Ring in about 7 hours. Initially, he ignores the horde of women chasing him and collects items that help him in fights, like Golden Seeds, Sacred Tears, and certain equipment. So, it’s not an impossible challenge.
Here’s how to get the mod: If you are also masochistically inclined, you can download and install the mod yourself, provided you are playing on PC:
Legends have formed around acquiring Malenia herself. The developers From Software removed a popular cheese strategy against her from the game, and she was temporarily unbeatable due to a glitch.
A player became a legend in the community for offering help to others in battles against Malenia.
