Elden Ringcommunity legend Klein Tsuboi – best known as Let Me Solo Her – is back, this time with an updated name and mission as he sets out on a new quest to help struggling Tarnished everywhere beatShadow of the Erdtree’s extra spicy mandatory boss, Messmer the Impaler.

Anyone who’s fought Messmer will know that that’s no mean feat – he’s a fast, aggressive boss who leaves few opportunities for you to swing at him without being swiftly met with a spear or scorching flames in your face. While he offers a fair fight, there’s no denying that he’s brutal to learn, and he’s an enemy you absolutely have to defeat if you want to progress Shadow of the Erdtree’s story. With that in mind, you can imagine players feeling totally stuck on him would love nothing more than to see Let Me Solo Him’s summon sign appear outside the boss door.

Whether Let Me Solo Him will be taking on Messmer with the same gusto as he did Malenia remains to be seen, but if someone with a jar on their head appears to help you in the fight, just be aware that you may well be in the presence of a legend.
