How to CHEESE Promised Consort Radahn (NG+7)

The build is 60 vigor, 40 mind, 60 endurance, 60 strength, 80 arcane. The weapon is bloodfiend arm with blood affinity, Shield is Fingerprint Shield. Spell is Scarlet Aeonia. I had +12 and +9 for the DLC buffs. Also this is NG+7 so if you’re on base game this strategy should work even better!

Lots of people are asking so here you go, I used the following talismans and spells: crimson seed talisman +1 (increases hp flask effectiveness) haligdrake talisman +2, great shield talisman, pearldrake talisman +3. The build is 60 vigor, 40 mind, 60 endurance, 60 strength, 80 arcane. The weapon is bloodfiend arm, and i have no skill as the ash of war on the shield but you don’t need that. Hope this helps!!!

this fight is not even fun hard at this point.
its boring hard... UNFAIR HARD

Every cheese tactic involves that stone shield.

Bro got revived just to immediately be scarlet rotted again

[yukuzai]

if you also sit there and spam swarm of flies you get more damage off hope this helps

I'm using fingerprint as well but have not had the same luck. I can get him down to 25% hp sometimes, but eventually, he breaks through. I think while you are skilled and this is impressive to beat him on ng+7, you got incredibly lucky with him grabbing your mimic tear which allowed you to rebuff and land that scarlet rot on him again. Even so, thank you for the video and great job beating him!

I was on ng+4 and tried this strategy out. Much of specs were similar, but I died only once with this tactic. Second time, barely survived. Thank you for helping me out. Indirectly, though lol.

Bro I love you the scarlet rot damage was exactly the last thing I needed to finish him off thank you

Haha, I did it, NG+12, Summon mimic with erdtree heal, dragonrot breath, scarlet aeonia, golden vow, and he has dragon communion seal+10 (though any seal just so he spam casts) you switch to antspur rapier weapon with bleed, with fingerprint shield on both. Then cast eardtree heal to keep your mimic alive a lot and apply scarlet rot. I used the flask with the massive damage reduction 1 off to summon the mimic (otherwise boss 1 shots you when summoning mimic) and the first furnac golem drop which helps with blocking. Then two headed turtle talisman, greatshield talisman, haligdrake talisman+2 and dragoncrest greatshield talisman. This was even easier than the video cause you can attack while blocking but the video was good guidance. - edit - just scarlett rot and erdtree heal, with golden vow, works best. Mimic applying rot and healing is easy mode.

Don't normally comment but, thank you for sharing this build. Worked first try. This boss is honestly in need of a huge nerf. Very silly.

[ChuckRuck]

Your method really helped me in NG+5. I will probably never do this boss fight again lol.

At least i can get the stuff i missed in my next NG+

When you basically NEED to respec into a certain build to kill a boss I feel that just takes the fun out of the game, I like a challenge and breezed through the DLC (Messmer took me like 20 tries and that was the most a boss took me) but this boss is fucking insane, not even for the difficulty of the boss itself but also the fact that you NEED to have around 16-20 scadutree blessing in order to not get 2 shot. Im currently lvl 17 and I dont know where the fragments that i need are, I can see alot of players just giving up when this much is required to kill a boss.

[joshuasultana]

Great build still a massive challenge to beat him but made it possible! Thanks mate

[enigmaticjam]

omg thanks ng+7 radahn is a nightmare for me hes the fattest boss in the entire souls series

[DEMON_SUNGOD]

What were they thinking when they made this boss? Oh i know they werent thinking at all.

[raphaelschilpp]

Can you show the wohle built with lvls and spells and shit

[kiemugen]

how to cheese him without mimic? with mimic I can beat him with anything

[darrylpreston]

What are the ashes of war used on shield weapon?

[Just_Bred]

I managed to beat every dlc boss after 2-3 tries (still stuck on Radahn) some of them really do feel unfair at times, but somewhat doable, Radahn is just bullshit. You know there is something wrong where in game with 300+ weapons and 100+ spells only 2 builds that kill him are Shield Bleed poke, or Lifesteal LionClaw Giant Hammer spam.
From Soft obviously need to let go of old DS mechanics and give us more options, either a) remove equip load and give us dash (like how BloodBorne did it) or b) let us fight like it's Sekiro. Many dlc bosses feel like they should've been in Sekiro and not slow DS type game.

This worked after the third real attempt, after his comet attack, i needed two heavies, my minic and i both got two
