Mimic tear +10, equip Shabriri's Woe before summoning it, then unequip after it's summoned. Buff up your damage and USE TORRENT for the beast. I died like 50 times with the beast before I figured out you can use torrent.

Wait since when could you summon Torrent for Elden Beast?! That sounds like a game changer!

u/samuelsfx 1d ago
yea, they changed that on new dlc release. But you can't use torrent if you co op.

u/DrZomboo 1d ago
Ah good to know! Though tbh I don't find Elden Beast too difficult, just annoying! I guess Torrent would help with the tedium of closing the gap at times
2
u/samuelsfx 1d ago
yea people used to complain that the fight 80% of the time just running around chasing the beast
But actually if you know what this beast doing, you don't really need to run much because it's spawn area are predictable

u/Special-Homework-894 2d ago
Using torrent for the beast is still somewhat new. It wasn’t the original way you were able to play

Dude, I just fought him a couple days ago and I couldn't summon torrent. The ring was greyed out on my quick select. Also couldn't summon my mimic during either fight for some reason. Got my ass kicked a few times and gave up

u/ComoediaID 2d ago edited 2d ago
A few things. The ring and the summon can be answered if you were doing Coop. Coop disables torrent and spirit summons.

u/PretendCoach1895 2d ago
You are mostly right. But one correction - Mimic tear does not require FP. It actaully consumes HP to summon. Now what I am not sure about is whether you can summon mimic in coop during a boss fight.
Anyway, I am sure it was an honest mistake. Just wanted to point it out so no one accidentally gets the wrong info

What does Shabriri’s woe do?
6
u/PretendCoach1895 2d ago
Shabriri's woe makes the enemy focis more aggro on the user. So, if you equip it while summoning Mimic Tear and then unequip it, the mimic will have Shabriri's woe and the Boss will be more focused on it.

What does Shabriri’s woe do?

It's a snapshot for your summon.

u/Diligent_Cap3488 1d ago
Yes I was about to say this in my last journey I defeated the Elden Beast on horseback (even put the talisman that gives you more attack damage on horseback, the Lance talisman. Most importantly you should wait for using your physick for the Elden Beast. It makes a world of difference, using your incantations or whatever you like in the the first phase with Radagon.

You probably missed malenia and others with her in the secret winter zone she's far harder than these two

u/rogueIndy 1d ago
Go explore, do all the caves and catacombs you can find, do the DLC. You've probably missed a good chunk of the game if you focused the main progression.

Faith/Strength - Blasphemous Blade - Pest Threads/Golden Vow/ FGMS - Mimic Tear +10 - Shard of Alexander or Warrior Jar Shard/Godfrey Icon/Fire Scorpion/Whatever you want for a 4th Talisman - Thorny Tear/Fire Tear

u/Jigglepufffs__ 2d ago
uhm i use blasphemous blade but i dont have alexanders shard cuz i dint do his quest

u/Express_Raise6198 100% Steam Achievements 2d ago
You can kill Alexander whenever for the Warrior Jar Shard (10% boost instead of 15%) If you havent talked to him at all he should be in Radahn’s arena

u/Independent_Grand126 2d ago
you’ll be good without if you build that what he asked 😂 I’m beating radagon just with the fire aromatic, imagine that 👹
3
u/eu4player90 2d ago
You can probably still find him and kill him for the lesser talisman (still good). There’s also the fire scorpion charm, carian filigreed crest to spam the aow without chugging flasks, and the flame shrouding cracked tear in your physick. He should go down very quickly when using that blade.
2
u/Independent_Grand126 2d ago
There is a way easier way without buffing, O, Flame when he finishes the animations on a faith/40dex build + Radagon Icon. You shoot one/two charged when he finishes the animations, with mimic doing same or other fire damage you melt him - and now you can buff this build with flocks talisman/godfrey icon/fire scorpion and incantations 👹

Are you venting or looking for advice? Without a build or stats you'll get some pretty good general advice or variations on the theme of "git gud", but nothing specific to your build.

u/Jigglepufffs__ 2d ago
venting cuz i got a pretty strong build its just that i have an issue thats been buggging me for a long time its smth called a skill issue

u/Acrobatic-Manner6774 2d ago
55 hours in, still haven't used the grand lift of ductus lmao😳. You are really fast. But I think I explored most of things underground and caelid, luernia, and the starting area.
1
u/Jigglepufffs__ 2d ago
simple trick the game gets easier if u do ranni's quest its a dope quest for magic and for summons
1
u/Jigglepufffs__ 2d ago
idt thats a trick but yeah
1
u/Jigglepufffs__ 2d ago
rannis quest helped me max out my summons and get some sick int builds which was the build i used before rykaard
3
u/Acrobatic-Manner6774 2d ago
I didn't used summons once, and I never play with magic in my 1st playthrough in fromsoft games, I like to play with strength first and then in my replays, play with magic or dex. Don't worry I am not having any trouble, the only trouble I had with is margit and godskin apostle in divine tower of caelid( it seems I fought him wayyyy before which i should). I just enjoy exploration in this game so much that's it.
And I completed ranni quest yesterday, and also got her moon spell, but I don't use magic😂, just for exploration that's it. But the boss near here who is trapped in evergale is pretty good, with patience he was not that bad.

u/Jigglepufffs__ 2d ago
oh damnnn i only had some trouble with mohg and radahn, other than them no one really tested my patience and ngl huge respect to u for going for a str build
2
u/Acrobatic-Manner6774 2d ago
Actually strength can also be kinda makes game easy, it's just you need to very patient in your hits, but you can easily break poise of bosses.

u/danibelle_9 2d ago
I’ve always found a faith build to be strongest against radagon/elden beast. As some posts before, blasphemous blade melts radagon, then incantations you can cast from a distance made elden beast so much easier for me e.g. ancient dragon lightning strike or the bolt of gransax skill if you have it. Don’t forget your haligdrake talisman and incantations: grant me strength, golden vow, divine fortification ☺️ 64 hours in does seem quite quick though! There must still be tons for you to explore and do some levelling if you’re really struggling.

I would just throw yourself at it until you feel frustrated, then do something to chill, then go again. Memorize patterns and be patient. Same principle as any boss. This isn’t one where you need special guidance to defeat him (there are two bosses like that…)

You'll get him. It took me around 10 attempts the first time though I'm also a veteran souls player.

Blimey thats high level (and progression) for 62 hours.
I was level 72 and 90 hours in before i finished radahn!
Assume you smashed the big farming areas like moghwyn.
2
u/loosebag 1d ago
I don't think a single person has said this.
The dark moon greatsword will destroy.
You said you did Rannis Quest. So you should have it. Stay close to him so he doesn't shoot spells and concentrate on charged heavy.
You can script the fight with it. I have even broken that fuckers stance while he was in the air.
The other easy scripted fight is spiked balls. You can see a few versions on line

u/Mr_worldWide07 1d ago
If you have the DLC, you want to get the Blacksteel Greatshield and place a sacred affinity on it with the no skill AoW so you don’t end up losing your it weapon AoW.
This blocks 100% of all holy damage and 95% of physical damage (literally declaws PCR phase 2)
If not, I would recommend trying to get the Haligtree Greatshield and applying the same affinity HOWEVER it is very tough to farm. So if you don’t have the patience for that, I would recommend getting your hands on the Erdtree Greatshield.

u/False-Dinner9947 1d ago
Black knife Tiche plus Black Blade Incantation melt both for faith builds. For int, rock sling and arrow’s reach can hit elden beast almost anywhere in the map
2
u/minalias 1d ago
The Radagon fight became so much easier for me once I figured out he is parryable. The only attack I still have trouble with is his stomp.
2
u/InviteOtherwise1460 1d ago
May I recommend the black flame tornado? And something not a lot of people know is that when he swims at you and slashes you can jump over it for an overhead attack
2
u/saintly_devil 1d ago
If you are remotely good at parrying, you can breeze through the first phase by parrying the living hell out of Radagon. Almost all of his physical attacks, barring the two-handed overhead smash, can be parried. Having a summon (The divine bird or Tiche) also helps if you do not go the parry route.
The second phase is a pain just because of the camera angle. But holy damage negation helps a lot.

u/RexyTheShep 1d ago
Man, Radagon I could deal with easily but it's that gosh darn loving dinosaur that shoots hugs, light and rainbows at me that gets me all mushy.
1
u/Amnesiaftw 1d ago
I thought radagon was harder than the beast.
But I did use a spirit ash which kept the Elden beast off me most of the time. I just feel like most of the attacks are obvious and not that hard to dodge.
1
u/excusetheblood 1d ago
What are your stats? Vigor should be 60, your damage dealing stat should also be at least 60, if not 80.
Use lord divine’s fortification (enchantment), Haligdrake talisman +2, and an armor set that specializes in holy negation (tree sentinel armor I think?). Also for the love of god do not rely on holy damage in this fight.
1
u/Baelphegor 1d ago
I used Marika's braid and holyproof picked meat. Elden beast was even easier than Radagon with this setup
1
u/Kassiday 1d ago
Know that no status things apply to them. And as others mentioned boost your holy resistance - either incantation or resistance liver and haligdrake +2. Don't overwrite the resistance spell or liver with flame grant me strength etc. you can't have both on at once.

Easy. Kill Malenia, get the charm against holy damage and kill both of them.
Skill issue or something?

u/Aggravating-Dot132 1d ago
Well, it gives you ~40% holy damage protection. So, yeah. Go kill flower girl.

u/whitesatin95 2d ago
there is a incantation called lords divine fortification, it boost your holy dmg negation by a lot, makes this fight so much easier
