Elden Ring: Player parodies 'Let Me Solo Her' with 'Do It Yourself' summon

Elden Ring has a variety of incredibly difficult boss fights but From Software has added an option to call in help should you need it.

You have the ability to summon players into your world and they will help you out, attempting to kill the bosses you’re fighting and just generally making your life that tiny bit easier.

Now, it should be said here that there are absolutely no easy boss fights in Elden Ring and, even with help, some of the battles are going to take you a while!

You’ll die and die and die again and that’s kind of the point in From Software’s epic release.

But there have been stories of genuinely brilliant players coming into the world and just acing boss fights.

You may remember the legend that is ‘Let Me Solo Her’, who dropped into a game and beat Malenia without taking any damage whatsoever. Malenia remains the hardest optional boss battle you can te on.

He has helped a number of players beat her, having found the exact formula needed to get her down.

Now, though, it appears that players are actually making parody versions, including some that don’t actually help you at all.

Reddit user Omar-uWaMouShinderu posted about their experience at bringing in a summon against Malenia.

Omar was actually a summon himself, and another summon was brought in to help the host beat Malenia.

They picked a player named “Do It Yourself” and it’s exactly as it sounds.

“Do It Yourself” merely sat right next to the door into the boss fight and watched on as Omar and the host did all the work themselves.

It’s not a hugely helpful way to play and it may well have been a griefing strategy, although players can see the names of their summons before they bring them into the world, so they can’t exactly have expected “Do It
