Elden Ring is the newest addition to the storied list of games that FromSoftware has released into the world. While it doesn’t follow Dark Souls lore, it forges its own path of brutality in a more open-world setting. While these games are thought of fondly, one common bit about them is how they are a bit difficult to understand. If you’re struggling with your fight against Starscourge Radahn, we’ll tell you what its weakness is and how to cheese the fight if you want!
Radahn Cheese & Weakness Guide
Starscourge Radahn in Elden Ring has a weakness to Hemorrhage (Bleed) and Scarlet Rot. One option to exploit this is to head to the Cathedral of Dragon Communion, which is located in Caelid. Exchange a Dragon Heart for the Rotten Breath Incantation. You can cast this onto Radahn, and it will deal siginificant damage to them over time.
To cheese Radahn, you will want to use that Rotten Breath Incantation and the various summons you will find near the boss spawn location. Have the summons attack the boss and while they are distracted, you can run in to use the Rotten Breath spell. Make sure to use all of your mana when you cast it to make sure you land the damage over time on Radahn. Once you’ve done so, run away to a safe location nearby behind some cover. Radahn will be whittled down in health by the DOT and the summons.
When you reach the second phase of the fight, run around and re-summon any NPCs that died during the fight. Radahn will eventually come back down to earth in a ball of fire. Avoid getting hit by that and then cast Rotten Breath on them again. Hop on your mount and travel far from the boss to avoid getting attacked. Just wait until the health has reduced to zero, and you will have defeated Radahn!

Radahn is also weak to Hemorrhage (Bleed). There are a variety of weapons that have this ability on them, so either use one of those or use a spell. The spells that will inflict Hemorrhage on an enemy are Blood Blade and Ash of War: Bloody Slash.
That’s everything to know on how to cheese and take advantage of the weakness of Radahn in the game! If you want to find more information and guides, you can check out the Elden Ring section of our website.
