I played badly but still beat Elden Ring's final boss Radagon & Elden Beast [Xbox 4K HDR 60fps]

in #palnetlast year

Hey guys. In this video you will see exactly what I did to beat Elden Ring's final boss at level 181. The funny thing is before this video I actually tried for like 3 hours and couldn't do it. I got lucky in this video but I'm sure you can still take something away with the way I beat him.

My whole build is based on maximising the use of my Dark Moon Greatsword. Every talisman I equipped is aimed at maximising damage of the weapon skill. You can see in the video that when I use the weapon skill to shoot out the ice wave it deals insane amounts of damage.

Even though I was a mage, I respecced my stats so that I have a lot of health and not much mana. This is because the Dark Moon Greatsword does not use mana to cast the weapon skill. Once you charge up the sword with a bit of mana, any subsequent casts of the spell for a period of time does not cast mana.

With defeating Radagon the main thing is to ensure his focus is on your spirit summon, because if you're the only one fighting him you will barely get a chance to land an attack. Once his focus is on your summon, my weapon skill took him down with a few shots.

The Elden Beast was the hard one. The main thing is to know how to react to his attacks. Most of his attacks can be dodged by either running or dodging at the right time. You also need to make sure to stand at the right spot - in that respect it's pretty similar to the fire giant - to avoid being hit and to land the dark moon greatsword skill.

Anyway I hope this guide helps you to kill the boss. Now I can finally stop playing this game and get onto other things in my life!

Oh man, that's a tough one to beat. I felt your struggle at the beginning of your battle with the Elden Beast. However, when you got your rhythm you took the beast down quickly.

So, the strategy is to evade the attacks while finding your way closer to using the sword to bring it down. Awesome game!

thanks so much :) it was a fun fight :)

majestic ain't it. elden beast. 😍

[edit]
looking at your buffs/debuffs. Do you still have Baldachin’s Blessing in your inventory. hahaha that's -5% max health.

oh nice! i didn't even know about that one. should I use it?

using it removes the item from your inventory. gives 35% physical damage negation and +50% poise for 15 seconds.
