Elden Beast - Raiders

Damage Negation / Resistance:

Standard: 35

Slash: 35

Strike: 10

Pierce: 35

Magic: 20

Fire: 0

Lightning: 20

Holy: 80

The negation numbers are the % of your damage that gets blocked. For example, if a negation is 60, 40% of that damage by that type will go through and 60% will be negated. Bigger number = less damage. A negation of 100 means no damage goes through, and a negation of -100 mean the enemy takes 2x damage from that source. 0 means damage goes pretty much as is.

Poison: 627.4

Scarlet Rot: 627.4

Blood Loss: Immune

Frostbite: 627.4

Sleep: Immune

Madness: Immune

The resistance numbers are the buildup amount to trigger it. For example, if a resistance is 100 you must deal 100 points of the given buildup to trigger it. Note that these go down over time, and increase each time the effect procs. The values after the "/"s indicate the increased resistances after each successive proc.

Fight Strategy:

This is the endboss, consisting of two phases. For his first healthbar he will be Radagon of the Golden Order. After depleting his health he gets a 2nd full health bar and turns into Elden Beast. Normally, this is one of the hardest fights in the game, but you can cheese it with a magic build (if you play a melee build, respec at Renalla in Raya Lucaria Grand Library). It’s highly recommended to have fully upgraded some Ashes (ideally Mimic Tear), have 14 flasks (found 30 Golden Seeds), and reached Flask Level 12 (found all Sacred Tears). Being at least Level 100-120 is recommended. Now for the method: Equip the legendary Spell “Comet Azur” (requires 60 Intelligence, from Mt. Gelmir: Primeval Sorcerer Azur, talk to Sorcerer to get it). Also equip to your Flask of Wondrous Physick the “Cerulean Hidden Tear” (from Mt. Gelmir: Minor Erdtree) – it gives you infinite FP for 10 sec. Also use the Meteorite Staff and have the “Rock Sling” Spell equipped (both found in Caelid in the big red lake around Street of Sages Ruins). When entering the boss area, IMMEDIATELY move to the left of the boss before his animation finishes and stand as close to him as possible (touching him). But don’t attack yet. This will freeze the boss in place, see the video where to stand. Now consume your flask to get infinite FP and use the Comet Azur Spell to kill Radagon in one single move. He will just stand there and doesn’t do anything. DON’T summon your Ashen Remains yet. This takes care of the first boss phase without actually fighting the boss, easy peasy!
