Finally... I FOUGHT RADAHN

[@passerinity]

- Head back to the fort where you fought Radahn. It is a legacy dungeon, but it clears out for the festival (which is triggered by certain events) - Besides the obvious of speaking with Ranni, head to Sellen. - For the lost and the victors: Dunes of sobbing scarlet, Floating wrecks stacked high, Into the the stony, torch-lit Tomb of battle-weathered, Ravaged and rotten warriors - Or monsters now; All ‘neath the towering pillars Of long time past. - Death’s Poker is actually one of the best weapons in the game, arguably the best Int weapon. That AoW is uh… crazy, actually. - Radahn was pretty much a Godfrey fanboy. - Speaking of, yes, the impetus for Radahn becoming the most powerful gravitational sorcerer in existence and halting the very stars, was to make sure he didn’t crush his horse. Whose name is Leonard. - In other news, got in a car accident, got home, sat down and put on some Merg Elden Ring. Good times.

[@Merg]

Hope you're okay! 🙏

Your Elden ring vids give me life. Also congrats on beating Radahn! Malenia infected him with scarlet rot and it ate away at his body and mind, similar to Millicent. He used to be the mightiest demigod… I suggest finishing up Caelid first and activating the great rune you got from Radahn at the divine tower! If you decide to go to the next big area I suggest not taking the lift but taking the other route. Taking the other route has a super fun legacy dungeon and you’ll cross paths with some npcs. And don’t worry you will have to use a lift later in the game anyways. There’s a legendary sword somewhere in Caria Manor that you missed. It’s in a secret area where you can drop down. There’s also a secret where you can drop down behind bestial sanctum. Lastly you should use the boiled prawns that you bought from Boggart. It gives a 15% boost to physical damage negation for 60 seconds. Which is pretty good.

[@Merg]

Thank you very much!!!

So the thing unique about the radahn fight is you can summon all the npcs at once to have like 10 people fighting him together. That’s why it’s the “festival”, you can all challenge him as a team. Also, something funny you missed, if you summon patches he just leaves

Fun fact: If you look closely you can see a purple glow on Radahn's horse. He dedicated time to learn gravity magic so that he could keep riding his weak little horse even when he got so big. Even now that he's all gone, maybe there's still a tiny part of him that loves his horse. Ah I see you found that later on. Congrats on beating Radahn! Also Radahn's armor is one of the best armor sets in the base game. If you ever level up your carrying load more you can get medium load while wearing the full set

[@Jyoryaxx]

As the army fell, every champion injured, a retreat was called. Though each warrior escaped alive, the injuries were many, and Radahn was left unscathed and undefeated. His might could not be challenged, not by a mortal. Every strike fell useless against his armor, and the festivals soldiers lay battered and ruined on the shore. It was clear that no one could match the power of this legendary general, and he would roam the lands for eternity. Lady Ranni would not complete her task, without the movement of stars. But then the skill god came, with the army out of the way. He had no need for summons or allies, they would fare better on the shore, away from the legendary duel. This was the true war, one not fought by armies but two deities, renown for their apparent invincibility. Merg charged Radahn on his horse torrent. This was not an ideal method for this foe, but the cherry enjoyed the view. He rushed towards the fabled general with the sorcerous katana held firmly in hand, barely equipped, his form a dark and mysterious shroud of pure confidence and heroism. The general leaped forward with his horse Leonard, kept in the air only by the force of magic, appearing as a grotesque leviathan monstrosity, his humanity long gone, overtaken by rot. As their blades clashed waves of blue and purple shattered into gold, sparks and flakes of metal flying in every direction. With no more than a few drops of life force to keep alive, the cherry dashed around the battle field slicing twice with a double, for each feral strike of Radahns greatswords. As Mergs blade slashed back and forth, moonlight shards of power rippled through the generals armor, tearing through bone as termites devour planks. Finally Radahn had had enough. The cherry had not. ( *Valstrax spotted* ) Radahn flew towards the sand, crashing into the earth, and sending sand flying into a magnificent storm, obscuring the battlefield under a curtain of darkness. But as Merg leaped to the side Radahn spent what human will he had left in his scarlet corpse, only to realize his final mistake. The double crossed his visage, and he burned in azure against the Moonveil. The general had spent so long unchallenged matched only by the skill of Malenia, felled only by the power of her scarlet disease. But now finally he was defeated and slain. Fitting that the hand to end his misery would be the true god of skill. The one who got gud. ''A pity'' thought the cherry, ''that not even Radahn would merit the challenge of the (+2) highland axe. As the stars resumed their path, Merg wondered if there was one worthy of such a weapon. After all, the greatest of the demigods had been challenged before. ''Malenia'' she was called. What cataclysm would break free if ever they were to meet in violence?

[@Jyoryaxx]

Fun fact: The double is mentioned twice each comment.

Best comment🙏🙏

[@batata_iii675]

Some extra stuff I found about Radahn, and the unfortunate state he is due to the consequences of war, and such... If you check, you can see he doesnt have any feet(like Merg noticed!), just some "stubs"...some say they rotted away, while others believe it was sanded off from dragging them around in the sand, since he never leaves his horsey...I think it makes more sense they rotted away. Either way, I'd imagine its a good reason for him to not leave his horse (along the fact he is very fond of it!) Another thing is that all the arrows he uses in the fight, are actually weapons that are stabbed on his back. He just pops them out, and shoot right at you! You dont need a quill if you are your quill! He may be insane, but also kinda genius, eh?

Death's poker is a REALLY good weapon solely because of its weapon art (ability thingy). The one that sends out the trail of fire deals SO much damage due to the fast-as-all-hell frost build up.

[@Lucas44826]

Congrats in defeating Radahn The reason why the Redmane Castle was a bit strange is because it was in "festival mode", which removes almost all the enemies, enables the portals and pretty much blocks all the doors inside, the castle enters festival mode once you defeat two shardbearers and it should go back to normal now that you defeated Radahn, so you can explore it properly now if you want! Summoning Patches is a little joke in this fight, unlike the other summons, if you bring him into battle he leaves immediately lol The Death's Poker you got from that Death Bird is actually really powerful, it's ash of war can melt enemies pretty quickly

Fighting Radahn on Torrent looks super unfun compared to fighting him on foot. There is no wrong or right way to play of course, but it surprises me to see you fight him with Torrent despite the game clearly punishing that strategy heavily. The gravity pull in attack that you hated so much is trivial to dodge on foot with a single timed roll. You not being able to approach Radahn for your attack is not as much of an issue on foot because you can roll through his attacks and stay close, allowing you to hit him between attacks. The homing projectiles and quadruple meteors are much easier to dodge on foot and getting hit once doesn't leave you open for damage for what feels like half a minute. In general if any attack from a main boss feels undodgable, than that is usually the game telling you to change your approach because only very very few attacks in this game are actually unfair. If you ever replay Elden Ring, I highly recommend treating yourself to Radahn again, but this time on foot. You'll find that not a single attack is unfair. Really difficult yes, but just as fair. Torrent is intended only for the attacks that obviously tell you so, meaning his meteor and rain of arrows. In fact, the punishment for getting thrown off Torrent arguably makes certain parts of the fight harder and not in a fun way.

[@jjjkkkjjjkkk-tw5su]

Radahn is I'd say my second favorite base game boss and just such a spectacle. He's a certified GOAT. Some fun facts: You indeed couldve just kept summoning and re summoning. Radahn is basically a raidboss which makes the canon part of it being a festival even more epic (also Patches comes in and leaves soon after lol). He is actually beatable with no horse! It's just slightly tighter timing but its still mostly attacking during some of the attacks you did. And the dodge roll actually makes the one gravity pull dodgeable. If you do tap into big weapons, Radahn's is a very fun option. Not only is the skill very good, but two handing it actually pulls out a second sword. Others have mentioned it but you can go back to Redmane Castle for an actual legacy dungeon experience. Theres certain triggers that make the festival become active and completely empty the place. Instead of Marika's tits for this one episode, praise the Starscourge!

[@Fewerlious]

I saw you were worried that you'd messed up Alexander's quest by not summoning him, but don't worry. In the base game, every single npc summon is optional even for their quest. You only need to speak with them after However, in the DLC if you ever want to play that, nearly all the npc summons are required to summon in order to progress their quests. It's just good to know

[@Zyckro]

In Roundtable Hold you have Marika statue. You can use it to duel on arena. Behing Giga Jar Dude there is second colloseum You will find third and last later. And about Redmane Castle, it was empty and you could teleport beacause of Radahn Festival. If you would went earlier (or after you kill Radahn) it will be normal legacy dungeon.

[@DaithíMcBrádaigh]

That is Caelid pretty much complete, there is a couple important things left to do there though (in the Dragonbarrow part). There's two important items to get in a fort called Fort Faroth & of course repairing Radahn's Great Rune (which is probably the best mid to late game Rune). Which you do by climbing the Caelid Divine tower. Radahn is definitely one of my favourite fights in the game, it's so epic & fun, but you definitely made the fight more difficult by using Torrent constantly & not summoning. The fight is kind of meant to be fought on foot with all the summons (if summon signs are within the boss arena they do not buff the boss' health). That gravity attack you got frustrated with is dodgeable, just not when you're on Torrent, in fact multiple of Radahn's attacks are easier to dodge on foot, Torrent should be mostly used to close the distance on Radahn & to dodge his meteorite attack & arrow rain. Also Torrent does indeed have a dodge, he does a quick dash in the direction you're going if you press the dodge button, it can be used to dodge Radahn's gravity arrows if you time the dodge just before the arrow hits. You could've also summoned the npcs while on Torrent.

[@Etherwinter]

Death's Poker is actually very strong. Its Ash has two versions, one does an explosion, the other leaves a pool of "fire" on the ground that does damage and also inflicts Frost. So when a boss gives you enough of an opening, you can get it off and while they're standing it, they'll constantly take damage and get inflicted with Frost. When they have the Frost debuff they take extra damage too. You fought Radahn! Yessss. One of my favourite fights in the game because you can just summon a ton of npcs against him. One of the few times you fight alongside Blaidd and Alexander! I've only solo'd him once. I think it's way cooler and more fun with Alexander and the rest. Also, amazed that you dodged his meteor strike the first time experiencing it. Most people just stand around dumbfounded when he launches himself up into the sky, then die when he comes back down lol. Something you don't notice during his animations is that sometimes he pushes his horse under the ground to protect it. Also you can hit the horse and it damages him lol. I personally don't really like how he treated his horse even before his mind was rotten/he went insane, but people will say it's love. Radahn's armor is one of the best ones in the game, I think. I usually don't wear the chest and head pieces, but the gauntlets and boots can look good with other sets. Great Jar's Arsenal is fantastic if you want to wear the heaviest armors but remain at medium weight when you have decent endurance.

So, this boss was supposed to be fought with a lot of cooperator NPCs, a fitting end to the beast that was Radahn. They barely do any damage outside of some blood loss from Okina's weapon, they're there more for the cinematic experience, and to distract the boss a little. But you actually defeated him solo. Tarnished went "Nah I'd win" and actually won. You're doing a lot of incredible feats for someone on their first playthrough. Also, don't worry about the summoning part. In the base game no summons are needed to complete any quests. There are at least two instances where it is needed in the DLC though.

hey merg an old fan here i love watching your elden ring series and i like it very much i want to share some tips it may help you; level up your vigor. it gives more hp when your early levels you must have 35 or 40 vigor by now. HP>Damage in early game(i know you are 60 level but still wanted to say that). in late game you must have 50 or 60 vigor but all the time your vigor should be between in 35-40 and leveling the attack stats (for example intellegence) before your weapon is level +7 or +8 is not much worth because it doesnt scale that much when your weapon is not much upgraded yeah ofc give it some points but give your points to heavily vigor in your early levels if i were you i would do my stats like this Vigor 35-40 Mind 20-25 maybe 30 but i dont recommend you to level this high up early because it doesnt scale that much in your early levels and it feels like waste of points you always have to use flasks either way Endurance 15-20 when you start game your character already has a big amount of stamina so you dont need to level this up early Dex dont give this a lot of points as you know moonveil scales best with intellegence And give your remaining point to intellegence

Guys look at my new original moonveil build! Original build: 1:15:52

There are actually some telescopes on the map, these are not normal telescopes i think you should check them out that would be funny. The first telescope is in limgrave above Agheel lake by the road. You can fast travel to the nearest grace and run to the telescope. The second one is in liurnia, almost from the start of the lake you can see the telescope. Then just fast travel to the nearest grace. The third one is in Caelid when you have just entered Caelid from limgrave. The telescope is by the lava looking wall. There is a grace called: Smoldering Wall Grace i think, and if you have that one fast travel there since its just underneath the telescope on the map.

11:34 welcome to probably one of the most powerful weapons in the game, I am not kidding it’s weapon art can melt through bosses within seconds it works similarly to the bloodhounds fang so have fun with that one. 19:23 If you would have taken this bridge earlier than the “behold death” message would have been more accurate because the Radahn festival is in progress so there are no reinforcements near the castle, if you arrived earlier you would’ve died. 25:53 actually there is, there are two in fact but now that you triggered the Radahn Festival you have to come back there again to trigger it, and the second one is further in the back of the Radahn fighting area be very careful though because that dungeon is very tough especially tough due to how low leveled you are. 33:04 most people get off torrent literal seconds before the arrow reaches you, you get invulnerability frames where you are not dealt any damage whatsoever. 35:21 If you are struggling now imagine what everyone who played this game on launch had to go through with Radahn, as he had to be heavily nerfed because he was very hard, and almost every attack would one shot you. 41:02 What you saw with the stone encrusted swords it’s an ash of war that you can use as well that is called Cragblade that one can be found near the area where you found these soldiers fighting the dogs and what it does besides coating your weapon with stones it greatly improves poise damage(basically you can break your enemies stance quicker). 1:00:20 Correct it doesn’t hone in on you, only towards your last location so it’s very easy to dodge. Also last but not least(thank you for the heart) Radahn’s Great Rune is a very useful utility rune to have while Godrick’s only raised all of your stats by five, Radahn Raises your health FP and Stamina by 15% trust me this is a must equip.

22:38 - 22:41 hopefully merg summons them because its a festival for all

A little tip for the future: light rolling is not worth, medium load is absolutly enough. Defence is really important, as vigor also is, because when you are onehit you cant heal. You already deal pretty good damage, so focus on suriving.

[@Deflamed_Sphere]
