Phase 2 introduces severe visual clutter and blinding holy light, leading players to assume only elite, no-hit pros can overcome him melee-only. Many feel forced to abandon their preferred playstyle for a Greatshield or Mimic Tear (or Blasphemous Blade) just to finish the DLC. However, this breakdown proves Radahn is not a flawless action script demanding robotic perfection; he is an RPG puzzle with explicit mechanical vulnerabilities that average players can exploit. A Two Pronged Approach Effective evasion is just as important as your build. I share some resources that will allow you gain a better understanding of attack patterns and all possible attack combinations. Build & Setup Conquering this fight melee-only requires moving away from slow weapon skills that lock you into a long animations. The key is an optimized arcane bleed build utilizing a thrusting weapon which takes advantage of his weakness to pierce damage. To maximize defense, equip Moore’s Verdigris Armor, the Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman, and the Golden Braid to mitigate holy damage. This setup guarantees you can survive hard-to-dodge combos and counter effectively. This video also breaks down several buffs and attack-boosting talismans that help you burst through his massive health bar quickly. Fight Strategies Use the skills you've learned from studying his attack patterns to find safe openings, and then once you find those openings, don't be afraid to play aggressively and go for a few additional hits. This build is optimized for trading some damage, and our buffs, talismans and bleed build will reward consecutive hits, so playing aggressively is key. See video for additional details. Conclusion PCR is a controversial boss with some problematic mechanics. You do not need to execute a flawless challenge run to beat Radahn. Shifting your build and adapting your toolkit to target his explicit vulnerabilities is an effective way to pass this final exam solo and melee only.
