This is legit how I beat this boss. The only difference was I didnt have Antspur, I was using the Sword Lance Commander Gaius gives. Radahn kicked my ass before he got his ass rocked by a wall. And I was that wall.
I met a variant of this fellow yesterday - different armor and Fingerprint Shield, but same idea. He and a bleed build I also summoned (I completed the trio as a Black Flame wielding mage) felled the beast and helped me finish the DLC. I am inspired by this; with my other build that has the stats for this idea, I will one day help others in the same way.
The way he ate every hit ! Like its a normal Tuesday walk in the park ! this man not only have beaten the boss in a harder difficulty (but with only 2 flasks only in his disposal !! He's not just a tank but a absolutely bedrock at this point !
My friend once was fighting malenia and struggling so he used a summons sign naturally, that day he summoned someone titled “Let her solo me” and he did just that.
I summoned another guy named ''let me solo hi,m'' and he was doing perfect nearly never got hit but in phase 2 the boss jumped on me and killed me that guy was just using a backhand blade build no cheese
I summoned a guy named ''let me solo'' he had a greatshield build too I was sitting on the corner and he died when the boss had like 10% hp left and I took the boss out
I did the same yesterday with someone. We were 2 chunky guys with Moore armor and big shield but I was in ng+7 and even with 2 tanks, we just barely made it ^^'
