Wouldn't even be a problem. I once saw a guy mod 10 Balistas (who shoot 3 greatbolts each) into Radagons arena. They all fired and Radagon parried every single projectile.
@@xaphan_fallen_angel I saw a video to tank mod he can parry a nuke but radan nuke is not something like the fire ball or lightning strike and he’s a boss it’s impossible 😅😅
He wasn't THE Elden Lord.... HE was THE _SECOND_ Elden Lord... _This message was approved by Godfrey, The First Elden Lord, The better husband of Queen Marika, The better father_
First Elden Lord? I think you mean *Second* Elden Lord. _This message was brought to you by Dragonlord Placidusax, First Elden Lord and someone who was much better at choosing spouses_
@@alpharius1497 the great lord of dragons, the savage warrior and the champion of the golden order. All of them slain and now the throne falls to Smizzlepits the mint green, jar wearing, hatchet weilding psychpath who married radagons daughter after slaughtering her extended family and leaving her catatonic mother locked in a library
@@KimSeungri text from his remembrance: "The Dragonlord whose seat lies at the heart of the storm beyond time is said to have been Elden lord in the age before the erdtree." There's some merit to your argument on the ring not existing before the tree but the game calls him Elden lord so I stick by it
There was a theory about him been half giant but it was retconned that it's just a curse. I think it would have been a cooler fact of him being half giant because it would reference Thor and his hate for giant kinds despite being a half giant himself

We will probably get to fight Miquella the Unalloyed, who's technically still in his prime, as he was the only Demi God unaffected by the events of the Shattering, and appears briefly at the end of the DLC's trailer. Miquella is also described as being the "most fearsome of all the Demi Gods" despite being eternally stuck in child form. Then there's also Messmer the Impaler, who is also a Demi God and also son of Queen Marika/Lord Radagon. From the trailer, Messmer doesn't seem to be "broken" or weakened by the events of the Shattering, probably because (like Miquella) he wasn't in the Lands Between during the Demi God Wars, but unlike Miquella there is no mention of Messmer in Elden Ring, so he was either banished to the Land of Shadows by Queen Marika or willingly exiled himself before the Elden Ring was broken.
Also, Miquella might actually be the main antagonist and the mastermind behind the events of Elden Ring, as he is Torrent's former owner. This was confirmed in the DLC's cover art, which features a golden haired Miquella riding Torrent in the Land of Shadows. (Lunar Princess Ranni even mentions him, though not by name, when we first encounter her in Limgrave) stating Torrent's former master instructed her to give us the Spirit Summoning Bell (or maybe that was Melina, I can't remember) but I do remember Princess Ranni mentioning Torrent when we first meet her, which means she already knew Torrent and his former owner. Basically, Miquella was guiding and helping the player reach the Erdtree and the Elden Ring. This begs the question, why would Miquella help a random Tarnished kill his own brothers, twin sister and his mother/father and usurp the Elden Throne?
Let’s be real y’all, radagon was elden lord for a reason still, his pedigree for spawning some of the strongest Demi gods alone is enough to see that, godefrey was his equal as elden lord purely by sheer strength and savagery, both held the title for a reason, just wanted to spew my little bit of opinion on the game lord 😂😂
@@bigbean2587that's unclear at best and just false at worst lol. Of course, It's possible that Radagon and Marika were completely different people originally. but that's unconfirmed and there's moreso a lot of evidence to the contrary. Here's some of that evidence now, again this doesn't prove Marika and Radagon were always the same, but it's inconclusive one way or the other and maybe leans towards them always being the same. To start with, Marika calls Radagon "herself" even before they merged bodies, in fact she says he's her other self way before they actually merged physically. We know he has a male body and she has a female body. In fact her body actually changes from fully female to fully male, whenever he takes over. Like another aspect of herself taking over, rather than like two different people that merged together and became something in between. Next, the reason Miquella and Melania are cursed in the first place is Because they only had one parent, they were "born of one god," even though obviously Radagon and Marika still had seperate physical bodies at the time that he knocked her up with the twins. Because both parents are the same person it guaranteed both kids would be powerful empyreans like their parent was but also cursed them. That's why Melania is infested with rot and Miquella is a child forever. Because they were born of the Union of only one god. Beyond that, Radagon can literally take over Marika's body at will lol. so if you believe they were originally seperate beings you're saying she completely handed over her bodily Autonomy, agency, and even very existence, to someone else lol. Which isn't impossible, it's very possible. but it's definitely something very unlikely and would probably have to be stated somewhere to reinforce that she would be willing to do this or loved him so much she didn't care or etc. And thus, because it isn't stated anywhere. And all we see are more instances of "Radagon is Marika" and etc. It suggests Radagon and Marika were always the same, and she just integrated one self into her other self as she says in one of her echo lines. We also have a precedent for this, as D has two seperate physical bodies but one soul. Basically Radagon/Marika would be like if one was male and one was female. Then they had sex a few times, combined their physical bodies together, and had a fight over how to handle the elden ring. All in all, it can't be proven either way, but the existence of D showing two bodies with one soul is possible in the verse. The fact that Marika calls Radagon her other self before they physically merged. And the fact that their kids were super powerful but cursed because of being born of the union of only one god. All seem to suggest Radagon was always the same as Marika, he's the male half of the soul which is shared by Marika, like with the two Ds.
I'm relatively sure the hair that isn't tied in the braids and falls to his forehead makes bangs, which i found funny for some reason, but yeah it looks cool as fuck (also funfact Radagon canonically hated his hair).
@@angiesworld8038 The broken look is cool imo. Drives home the fact that he's pretty much just a puppet of the Beast now, which is why he's "Radagon of the Golden Order" and not "Radagon, Elden Lord"
Rahdons bossfight was the most fun in all of elden ring like spawning all your friends to help you kill him and then he comes in on that meteor it’s just perfection
As difficult as his fight was, I would have loved another phase in between Radagon and the [FINAL BOSS]. Imagine what it would be like if for each 10% of his health that drops, a loud sound rings out like a blacksmith’s hammer on an anvil, and we see his body progressively restored until his HP drops to zero and he finally reaches his former glory. Then a second phase is entered, where his move set is altered slightly in a way that somehow channels both him and Marika. I’m not at all saying this would have been better, as I feel like what we got was perfect for the lore and the story that was told. But that being said, leave a thumbs up if you would have liked to see this happen, or a thumbs down if you wouldn’t have for any reason. And either way if you have some addition or alteration to my proposed version of this boss fight, please do leave a comment below. I’d love to get some feedback. (I do eventually plan to create videos about stuff like this for my own channel)
Him being a 2-phase boss with Radagon first and then Marika and the Elden Beast being separate AND optional like Moon presence would have been much better. I feel like it should only fight you if you completed Ranni's quest or inherited the frenzied flame.
@@akechijubeimitsuhideI can dig it. Might have made more sense, lore-wise I think. I would have preferred to see some bigger differences between the different endings anyway. Like let us fight Melina in her ‘true’ form (almost definitely the Gloam-Eyed Queen) after Elden Beast after the Frenzied Flame ending. Maybe have her kill us in the end regardless, even if we beat her (kinda like that first fight against Genichiro in Sekiro). I do think Marika and Miquella are two beings we will never fight though. Since reproduction likely doesn’t take place by traditional means and botany and alchemy are two recurring symbolisms, it’s easy to see that Malenia was the ‘sprout’ of Radagon (masculine in nature, red hair, a fighter of great renown, incomplete) and Miquella the sprout of Marika (blonde hair, feminine in nature, charismatic and mysterious, never known to fight their own actual battles, both imprisoned by outer gods, etc.). In fact, I used to think that Marika/Radagon was the Rebis of The Lands Between, but lately I’ve been wondering if it couldn’t have been St. Trina. The merging of both Miquella and Malenia. But that’s just a loose theory, cause who really knows until we get more solid information, ya know? Either way, I’m kinda hoping we get to meet or fight Godwyn in the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, or at least get to see what happens after some of the endings… idk. Lot of possibilities. This one has been cooking for A VERY LONG TIME!!!
The fact that Radagon didn't get a 2nd phase still pisses me off cos y would u not give one of the final bosses a 2nd phase? It's so dumb. He's way better than Elden Beast.
@@anonisnoone6125 I mean the EB is his second phase. At least I’m pretty sure that’s how the devs were looking at it. But yeah, I agree. I think they probably just thought it was hard enough to get past Radagon with enough resources/HP/FP left to take on the Elden Beast. After all, one of this game’s primary selling points was its accessibility compared to previous Soulsborne titles. But yeah. Would have loved to see Radagon’s physical form filled in during a second phase. That or maybe having moments in the fight where Marika is trying to hold him back and he appears to be ‘wrestling’ with himself. Always thought of Radagon/Marika as a Tyler Durden-type character. Not just due to the obvious reasons of possessing a ‘split personality’ but the fact that both characters are representative of very fundamental disagreements in their ideology/ideologies. (It’s important to note that I’m referring here to the novel version of Tyler Durden, and not the Brad Pitt/Edward Norton version in the film)
It would be better if radogon /Marika with slightly different moveset and radogon was fully healed, but he would have come with a weakness like he would shatter if you have a heavy weapon, instead of that glass, tree , star , centipede, worm , light and coward bs of a boss we got, don't get me wrong though bgm and arena were beautiful and elden beast even looked beautiful but he always fckin ran away, had to use my mimic so he could throw some shit at him but oh boy did he always target me , he like killed the summon bcz it was doing like 5 percent damage while I was doing 1000 sometimed 800 damage per hit, although great game but aside from main bosses/demigods, the side bosses are trash and just lazy and not so unique
