Dark Souls 2 – How to beat Elana solo melee

Played on a PS4. No rolling. Elana, Squalid Queen's main weakness is magic, i.e. weapons infused with Faintstone, or covered with Aromatic Ooze. I highly recommend infusing a weapon with Faintstone at Steady Hand McDuff in Lost Bastille, for this fight only. Strike weapons seems best. Elana is highly resistant to lightning! Try keeping the Velstadt summon behind her.
