Elden Ring: General Radahn Roleplay Build Guide

Similar to Miquella's Haligtree, Crumbling Farum Azula is a late-gamer area. While the scenery is imaginative and amazing, this dungeon's platforming reveals the worst thing about Elden Ring 's movement scheme: its controls and cam

These aren’t exactly mandatory, but they do pair well with the above weapons. So, for starters, try to get the Shard of Alexander talisman, as it gives a big buff to the attack power of weapon skills. It can be obtained at the conclusion of Iron Fist Alexander’s questline. Next is the Lord of Blood's Exultation talisman, which increases attack power if blood loss is inflicted upon an enemy. This can be won from Esgar, Priest of Blood in the Leyndell Catacombs . Another handy talisman is the Godfrey Icon ; this one buffs charged spells and skills.


It's just there to frustrate the players once again and is just a mere nuisance in game design as players simply just run past it. It's topped off with one of the least logical pathways to a Augur boss difficulty arena; somehow, coffins are a better transportation method than Torr

The other useful Spirit Ash is the Black Knife Tiche Ashes . Bosses have a difficult time hitting her, and her ranged attack drains health for a certain percentage. She can drain bosses for a stupid amount of damage if they leave her alone for too long. There are two main drawbacks to using her, though. The first is that she’s expensive to summon, requiring around 132 FP. The second is that she doesn’t draw aggro as often, so players will need to be more careful about avoiding hits. If she sounds useful, though, she can be obtained by defeating Alecto, Black Knife Ringleader in the Ringleader's Evergaol in Liurnia (accessed by progressing Ranni's questline ).

General Radahn's armor is only unlockable after defeating the Starscourge, and his greatsword and bow can only be unlocked by trading in his Remembrance with Enia. To purchase the full Radahn armor set, speak with Enia after the battle to find each piece (head, chest, legs, hands) for sale. They are very heavy but very protective, so be sure you have points in Endurance to be able to dodge roll.


In order to get to Lake of Rot and eventually, Nokstella, players will also have to complete Ranni's lengthy questline. Eventually, this will lead to the area. Ranni's questline is one of the most complex in Elden Ring , so players will want to follow this gui

The Moonveil Katana can be found very early on in Elden Ring if you know where to go. From the Third Church of Marika, head north towards the western entrance to Caelid . Follow the road until you reach the telescope marked on the world map - from here, head directly west to reach the Gael Tunnel.

In addition to his armor and weapons, there are Talismans and other items that can play into the strengths of a Starscourge-inspired build. The Carian Filigreed Crest reduces FP consumption for weapon skills, which is incredibly helpful for the Starscourge Greatsword's high-FP Ash of War. The Shard of Alexander increases the damage of this ability, too. Choose the Claw Talisman if you want to spend most of your time in close combat, or the Arrow's Reach Talisman to increase the range and effectiveness of the Lion Greatbow .

All the weapons compatible with this build have a bit of wind-up for their skills, so this one can help. Grab it from the Golden Lineage Evergaol located to the southwest of the Grand Lift of Dectus on the Altus Plateau . If one has unlocked a fourth talisman slot, then just put whatever suits the situation best. Most often though, either a damage negation or FP increasing talisman is what works well in this slot.

Moonveil has the Transient Moonlight Ash of War, which allows its wielder to cast one of two special attacks after entering stance. With the light attack button, after holding down your input for the Ash of War, you will send forth a short-range beam of magic horizontally. With the heavy attack follow up, you will launch a vertical slice of magic forward quite a distance. Both of these special attacks deal significant damage and are extremely useful against both groups of enemies and single-target bosses.

It's only natural, then, for players to want to emulate such a legendary warrior, and Elden Ring gives players a means of doing just that. His sword, bow, and armor are all unlockable after he is defeated, but there's a lot more that goes into becoming General Radahn than cheap imitation.


In terms of base stats, the Red Branch Shortbow and the Composite Bow are identical. They both deal the same amount of damage (65), they both have the same range (29), and they both have the same Strength and Dexterity scaling. The only major difference between the two is their weapon ski


Meanwhile, the whole area is also a prime spot for subtle and minimalistic lore exposition. There are tons of Clayman enemies and ants in Ainsel River. As a reward, players also get a glimpse of the Lake of Rot (albeit inaccessible) as a precedent of the worse things to c
