Radahn is insanely hard. Then i realised you can use the 60% holy damage negation incantation. Makes the boss so much more reasonable.

[tylerricker]

I love that almost all the optional bosses have a main boss feel to them like the madness guy literally had a sick cutscene as if he’s a final boss it’s dope asf

[HeWhoJivesWithChives]

Radahn might as well just reach through the television and break my controller over my head at this rate.

Edit: Finally beat him!! Re-Speced into Pure Strength/Vigor/Endurance, Cold Greatsword, and a dream.

In the miquella's followers fight if you do all their respective quests, it turns from a gank squad reprise into a fun team deathmatch

[DarthVader-xhmo]

Somehow I beat Radahn. Doing this DLC on NG+7 above was absolute torture. You could be wearing a full set of demigod armour with the most turtle talismans in the game… and everything still kills you in 2 to even 1 hit. It’s borderline masochism trying to enjoy how breathtaking & beautful the DLC is, when you are constantly backtracking for the site of grace only to get sniped or wombo combed into oblivion just to start all over again. I didn’t beat this DLC, *I survived it*

[nathanputzeys]

If you don't summon Igon for the Bayle fight you are missing out on something. Not because he makes the fight easier but because his VA goes HARD ! I love this guy

[windows]

Honestly, Radahn (consort of miquella version) might be the hardest boss they've made thus far in thier games!!!

[davidnewhart]

After reading all these comments, the DLC seems to be quite literally its own game. It has its own leveling system. Scadutree blessings seem to matter a lot.

[MrWhite-etin]

After like 30 deaths, i just gave in and beat radahn like this:

-60 Vig, 80 endurance, 80 strenght
-fingerprint greatshild +25
-moghs spear +10
-bull goat armor

I just made myself as tanky as possible and blocked everything with my shield, and it worked lol, beat him in 2 tries doing it this way

[IvanDrago]

As a 47 year old man this DLC gives me very mixed emotions. My first Fromsoft game was Bloodborne and I remember getting wrecked by Cleric Beast on that bridge. I platinumed that game and proceeded to plat DS3 and beat DS1, Ds2 and Demon Souls. I platinumed Elden Ring base game. Ive seen Fromsoft go from niche to mainstream and a industry titan. Im doing okay in the DLC, Ive beaten 3 bosses on this list and havent pulled my remaining hair yet. However, Ive seen whats in front of me and I know my abilities and this shit isnt happening. Ive beaten Kas, Gael and Malenia, but I dont see myself getting past some of this. The endless combos, area effects, and just raw damage are going to be to much.

Like a ball busting coach Myazaki has dragged me kicking and screaming from getting wrecked by Cleric Beast to beating Gael. I think Shawdow of the Erdtree is wear my abilities get left behind. Im not mad and Im not posting salt. I feel blessed, as a former athlete to find something at this stage in life to test me and force me to improve beyond what I imagined at the start, this experience has been a blessing.

For you pushing through, "Take heed, Struggler. Struggle, endure, contend. For that alone is the sword of one who defies death. Do not forget these words".

[mohammedbaig]

Divine beast is only number 11, you're telling me the boss that has me stuck and has been kicking my ass is that much easier than all the ones to come after 😭

EDIT: nvm just beat his ass, in hindsight really not that bad, just a skill issue on my end

[ELDniel-DWpg]

the fact that fromsoftware have dethroned their hardest boss malenia with the dlc bosses in just 2 years is insane

[knuckleheadwestwind]

I think Leda was never meant to be played without summons, since it is meant to be a war between factions that were once united. The gravitas is lost without Ansbach and Thiollier I think

[rohansensei]

Consort Radahn is a goddamn Bayonetta boss

[bobthebuilder]

They just heard we hated that spinning radahn move and decided theyd give us all the more reason to

[servillian]

I agree so much with your ranking. i was so confused why you struggled with the leda fight lol, but wow you did it solo. If you complete an npcs quest you can summon them to help so it was a 3v3 in the end

[starfuryduck]

That second phase radahn grab attack is brutal if it hits twice. If you know you know

[nateneill]

I played through the dlc blind and now I realize I missed almost half the bosses

[MrSlima]

I stumbled upon Bayle by accident whilst exploring and I immediately got messed up. After a while of struggling with Relanna I went back to bayle and didn’t leave until I beat him. He was my favourite dragon fight they’ve ever made and honestly one of the best fights in general, when I beat him I was so sad I couldn’t do it again immediately

[toboe]

I’m on NG+4 with level 8 Scadutree. I still feel like I’m being used as a fleshlight in some of these fights.
