FromSoftware has released a new update forElden Ringwhich introduces a number of adjustments toShadow of the Erdtree’s final boss.

Promised Consort Radahn is generally considered to be the toughest foe in the expansion by players who have managed to come face-to-face with him, so some who have been having trouble with him will be glad to know that the final boss has now been considerably nerfed.

As detailed in thepatch notesfor version 1.14, FromSoftware has changed the action pattern of the boss when the battle first starts - which could mean he’ll no longer dive headfirst towards you when you enter the arena - and some attack moves have also been adjusted, though it’s not mentioned which ones.

Some of Radahn’s attacks have also been reduced in damage and stamina, as well as the attack range of some non-weapon-based attacks, which could mean his phase three abilities, and the visibility of some attack effects have been improved.

Aside from the highlight of the patch, the update has also made adjustments to PvP equipment and skills, while a selection of base game equipment, incantations, and spells have received their usual tweaks.
