With Radahn, Miquela's husband The final test awaits you in the Tower Settlement in Belurat. The entrance to the boss arena can be found at the Place of Grace “Front steps at the divine portal”.
Strength and Grace
The fight itself is basically reminiscent of your first duel with the “Elden Ring” boss. This time, however, he is not riding through the arena on his trusty horse and Radahn generally looks much more human (although he is still superhumanly tall). If you have followed a certain quest so far, you can also an NPC as support which can be quite useful in this duel.

Your normal attacks are almost no effect During our fight with Radahn, Miquela’s husband, Bleeding damage proved to be very effective. For this reason, we would recommend using this again. The bleeding meter of the final story boss can be filled relatively quickly and thus causes enormous damage.
In the first phase, it is very likely that Radahn will directly rush towards you will appear after you have entered the arena. He will then attack with both swords several strokes one after the other. With a little practice, you can easily dodge both his charge and his subsequent blows.

However, the real fight only begins when you have taken away about half of your opponent's life energy.

Otherwise, Radahn will mercilessly stomp it into the ground.
