In terms of the best General Radahn spells, which imitate his moveset in his boss fight, pick up Rock Sling and Collapsing Stars from the base game, as well as Gravity Well and Gravitational Missile. In the DLC, pick up the Ash of War: Spinning Gravity Thrust to imitate one of General Radahn's most infamous attacks.


Eclipse Crest Greatshield : Aside from not being the most exciting shield visually, the Eclipse Crest Greatshield may just be the best shield in Elden Ring . A low weight of 15.0 allows most builds to wield it easily, it blocks 72% of Magic damage , and has a high guard boost of 67, meaning that less stamina is drained per hit absorbed. On top of all this, the Eclipse Crest Greatshield also passively adds 50 points to the user's Immunity, Robustness, and Fo

The last method of obtaining the Nagakiba involves very little effort compared to the other methods, and it's asking for it (for free or from a trade) from other players online. It's obviously a pretty 'lame' way of getting this weapon, but not everyone wants to do entire NPC questlines for a singular weapon. Additionally, for those of you on NG+ runs or on new characters, this method is understandably less involved and easier to do. In any case, if someone agrees to the 'trade', players can create a private game and have someone else drop their spare or unwanted Nagakiba katana in-game.


Updated January 22, 2025 by Erik Petrovich : The best Daggers in Elden Ring are those that come with some kind of special effect or unlock a unique moveset, but many of the game's daggers are useful in the right hands with the right build. With the addition of several new DLC daggers, Elen Ring players have some more choices when it comes to the best Elden Ring Daggers.

General Radahn was a master of Gravitational Sorcery and an imposing, terrifying warrior in close combat. Being a heavy bruiser and a master of Sorcery is a tricky business to build stats around, but with the right tools it's not impossible to blend these polar opposites.

For any of you who have already reached the Mountaintops but missed a step in Yura's questline, don't worry, Eleonora will still always invade the first time you go to the Second Church of Marika, and Yura's Nagakiba can be found sitting wherever you last spoke with Yura as well, be that Murkwater Cave or one of his other locations.


Getting to Redmane Castle is as easy as following the main road in Caelid. Radahn's red redoubt is due southeast of Caelid, following the road. Do be aware that the guards are not friendly and will send catapult fire down the player's approach. There's a teleporter before the great bridge, but it only unlocks after a certain point during Ranni's questl

It's only natural, then, for players to want to emulate such a legendary warrior, and Elden Ring gives players a means of doing just that. His sword, bow, and armor are all unlockable after he is defeated, but there's a lot more that goes into becoming General Radahn than cheap imitation.


Visage Shield : Much like the One-Eyed Shield, the Visage Shield fires flames out of its mouth. As opposed to one devastating fireball, though, this shield sprays several jets of fire at once, and can also be used while moving, making it a tough weapon to counter.
