Well, that was anticlimactic.
With how difficult players are finding the Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, it shouldn’t be a surprise that the final boss is a whole new level of pain. While some players are finding new ways to take it on, one player just got lucky (or unlucky, depending on how you look at it).
Spoilers for Shadow of the Erdtree’s final boss below.
Player Gneurshk_ uploaded a video of their showdown with the final boss to Elden Ring’s subreddit with the caption, « What the f*ck?! I was robbed of the fight!!! » They had managed to get Promised Consort Radahn down to about two-thirds of his health, and apparently, that was all they needed. After nearly killing Gneurshk_, Radahn celebrated by phasing into the wall and disappearing completely. You can still see some attacks firing, but a couple of seconds go by and then he just dies.
When I first saw this, my initial thoughts were just how lucky this player was, imagining getting a free pass to beat one of the hardest bosses in the DLC.
