The Controversial Hardest Boss Ever Made - Elden Ring . Fromsoftware may have gone a little too far or.. Not far enough in some fans minds. In the pursuit of outdoing the hardest boss ever made, the DLC shadows of the erdtree might have made the strongest contender for controversial boss we have seen in the series which includes the bed of chaos! This video will delve into the story of the DLCs hardest boss and one that borders on community love or hatred, but time is the best friend you can ever ask for when it comes to these conversations so buckle in with me and really make sure that you have ‘the build’ as we take on the final boss of the dlc Consort Radahn and Miquella!

@Chaos_knight553 Prime Radahn is shown being overwhelmed by Morgott in the games intro. THIS version of Radahn though, in Mohg’s corpse and amplified by Miquella’s new god form, would likely crush Morgott. DLC Radahn should be the strongest character we see by a ways.

the biggest issue I had with waterfowl dance is lack of clarity. Players didn't figure out how to dodge it by being careful and watching for gaps in the attack, because visually there aren't any. They had to painstakingly discover through trial-and-error the dodge timings and directions to exploit invisible gaps in the hitboxes. Radahn's 2nd phase is just that, over and over. All clarity is thrown away for spectacle and it bludgeons any fairness in learning. There is only trial-and-error.

@heckogoop4318 Ай бұрын

is learning not trial and error? Its just a lot of it. the issue is the sheer scale of attacks, not that each one is bullshit. I’ll agree that waterfowl is kind of bs (if you don’t recognize when malenia likes to throw it and can prepare for it), but most of consort radahns attacks are just normal swings with some delayed area denial, pretty similar to the mohg boss fight fittingly. The one attack i didnt like was his repeated flash of light down slams after his rock throw in phase 2. That attack is impossible to read visually much like waterfowl.

@Thisisthegreatestatofalltime 29 күн бұрын

@@heckogoop4318It’s trial and error in the sense that basically no one is going through his second phase first try without a build that hard counters him.

Every other boss in this game, I’ve beaten them with no armor and truly nothing but a lordsworn greatsword, not even crab. This was very hard to do and I died many thousands of times, around 200 just to Malenia. All those bosses are easy next to Consort Radahn. They’re truly not even in the same league. I couldn’t imagine a fromsoft boss that was harder than malenia, but Radahn definitely is. I’ve died close to 400 times and honestly, it doesn’t look like the end is near. I can’t even get him consistently to 30% health. His first phase is fine, it’s the Miquella+Radahn phase that’s the problem. It’s easily the hardest boss ever in a fromsoft game. He has moves that I still don’t know how to consistently dodge, and he leaves virtually no openings on anything he does. Every attack he throws explodes later and wrecks you. I wouldn’t be surprised if it took me a thousand attempts to beat this guy with my barebones setup.

The double slash ABSOLUTELY needs to be nerfed. The startup is like what, 11 frame? Its reactable but even if you dodge the first slash, without lightroll youll get hit by the second. You cant jump it, you dont want to block it because the third hit will kill you if youre guard broken. You can probably BHS out of it, but you cant raptor out it. You can parry it, but i can assure you if you miss, youre dead, and just try to parry a frame 11 attack on reaction.

Except this isn’t prime Radahn. I don’t know why people keep acting like we’re fighting Radahn as he was during the shattering. This is Radahn’s soul in Mohg’s body being powered up by Miquella. Even phase 1 isn’t prime because he’s still in a completely different body, and presumably still empowered by Miquella.

Radahns hit flurries are so rapid and nonstop there is basically no other strategy at this point than to use a great shield or the stone shield.

I can see how this could be frustrating for a more casual player, but this fight is literally a prime example of a skill check. Every attack can be dodged if you get the timing and prep right (yes even the ones in phase two). For exqmple i had problems with the attack where he throws rocks at you in both phases and i just learned to keep distance and dodge perpendicular right before they hit. This boss is just a case of the player actually having to learn an attack pattern in detail. And yes while overhelming the second phase can be compared to something like a bullet hell where you just need to be very percise with the aoe and lasers and stuff. In summary this boss is just mostly about learning the flow of his attacks (i am excluding performance issues here)

I have literally almost beat him 3 times, But that last attack where he flies into the air then comes and hits you like a comet gets me every time. Had it not been for that attack I would have beat him by now.

I'd recommend running as fast as you can to the edge of the arena and trying to jump to avoid the 2 explosions. You might still get hit, but you'd take less damage and might survive. Good luck!

So I did the whole dlc with no summons on new game 5. I’ve beat other soulsborne games. I would say I’m pretty good at the games cuz I first attempt a lot of bosses and kill most of them before 10 attempts. This dlc alone had 3 bosses that took me at least 2 n a half hours. Rellana was a really cool fight(2 n a half hours) Bayle took me 4 something which is the longest it’s ever taken me. Until prime radahn….3 separate days for a total of a bit under 7ish hours. That might not even be a lot for some but for me that’s insane. That’s never happened to me so I cracked…I used mimic. And I’m ashamed. Granted I do think I could solo him with the new scarlet rot build I did because for the last 2 attempts I completely switched my build and went fully into scarlet rot cuz I was like “well malenia did it, why not me?” anyways my point is….hardest fight of all time. It’s actually a bit bullshitty lmao.

I would have agreed in the heat of the moment(when i was fighting him) but honestly thinking back there wasnt much actually unfair stuff except for the nuke due to the fps drop and maybe the continuation to that one multihit gravity attack(one where he summons rocks from the ground). I just wish people that used strats like greatshield abusing didnt comment on his validity as a boss because i feel like they gave up early and decided to base their view on the boss on a playstyle that isnt particularly fun, the whole fun part of this fight is the phase 2 learning curve, when it finally clicks and you understand how to avoid the lightbeams and the afterimages etc

@nicecoat5004 Ай бұрын

@@darken6456 one of his combo starters come out extremely fast, so much that you have to preemptively dodge it. Except there is another combo starter with slight delay which will roll catch you if you preemptively dodge. You have to have like MILLISECONDS of range in your reaction speed to dodge the fast one when you see it coming. Not to mention that the triple combo of doom first hit is also a preemptive dodge. Almost nothing about this fight feels fair but most of the attacks come naturally once you learn their strats. Not the ones i mentioned tho. The strat i developed for this boss is literally not dodging the fast combo starters and facetank them. Worked wonders for me.

@darken6456 Ай бұрын

@@nicecoat5004 there is one attack where he does 2 swipes and x, that’s the only one that is actually near impossible to dodge but it’s not even that bad you tank one of the swipes and as long as you dodge inwards you wont get caught by the lightbeams either

@@darken6456 literally the strat i talked about at the end of the comment you replied my dude. Also i take back what i said about the preemptive dodge attack. I remember my problem with it being that it always punishes my jump attack during an opening, not that its hard to react to when he does it normally. Triple combo of doom is a preemptive dodge tho since it comes instantly.

It would be really cool if you got the age of stars ending, you could summon Ranni to help you like she gives you a buff or something.

If you hate yourself and your ego requires you to fight him fairly to feel good and on top of that you have many, many and I mean many free hours at your disposal, sure...have at it. If you're a gamer, even a seasoned and a veteran of Souls games with a life and any sort of self care and love, you're just going to find a cheese for it. Summons, fingerprint shield and bleed build is the go to of the community right now. If you manage to defeat him solo with no cheese, I commend you, but you and I have a different meaning of what a game should be. At the end of the day I want challenge, but I still want to have fun and this is not it. Slave Knight Gael was peak FromSoftwer imho.

@@Ar17778What's the point of doing that challenge if the boss itself isn't fun? That's why Gael is peak design, he was challenging, but fair and fighting him is just fun af. Probably one of if not the best boss fromsoft has ever made. Heck if we go by SOFE standarts then Messmer was by far the best designed boss of the DLC, heck of ER in general. Radahn is just hard for the sake of it while messmer felt like an actual good fight with lots of back and forth.

@@highlightermarca-texto3281he has multiple moments in the fight where he just stops for some reason and even then, if you parry his attacks, you can get a kick hit in before dodging and or parrying one of his response strings. If you don't want to get frame-trapped, then dodge in a better direction. Radahn WANTS you to be close during the boss fight and he wants you to dodge at the right time and place. If you do that, then the lights become the least of your concerns. The Mirage attacks, ultimate combo, and cross slash combo are the actual phase 2 challenges.
