Summary
- A hilarious yet tragic clip shows a player defeated by Promised Consort Radahn in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC before they even have a chance to enter the arena.
- The player was summoned into another player's world to help with the tough fight, but one of Radahn's attacks clipped through the fog wall, knocking the summoned player off of the edge.
One unlucky Elden Ring player had an exceptionally hard time defeating the final boss in the game's new Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, being blocked from entering the arena entirely. The player was summoned to help fight Promised Consort Radahn, a boss some claim is the toughest battle in Elden Ring, but was quickly killed in an unusual way before they could even meet Radahn face to face.
Players are continuing to dive deep into Elden Ring's new Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, which breathed new life into the already-successful action RPG title. Released in 2022, Elden Ring quickly made a name for itself, becoming one of the best-reviewed and highest-selling video games of all time. In the time since, Elden Ring has continued to garner a massive fanbase, with the game's new Shadow of the Erdtree expansion providing both veterans and newcomers alike with dozens of hours of new content to enjoy. Alongside a new storyline, new weapons, and new items, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree also introduces several challenging bosses, with Promised Consort Radahn, the last fight in the DLC, being considered by many to be the toughest fight in the game. However, one player had trouble even accessing the boss fight arena in a hilarious yet tragic new clip.
Elden Ring: 15 Bosses With The Best Lore, Ranked
FromSoftware has an excellent reputation when it comes to lore. Here are the bosses with the best lore in Elden Ring, ranked.
Reddit user davidoff-sensei shared a clip of them attempting to help another player defeat Promised Consort Radahn in Shadow of the Erdtree. However, the player was summoned into another player's world after the fight had begun, meaning Radahn was already dishing out a few of his fearsome attacks. One of these attacks clipped through the fog wall, knocking the summoned player back and off the edge, killing them before they could even make it into the arena.
Elden Ring Player Killed In Tragic Way During Radahn Fight
Not only did the original player lose a co-op partner, but the instant death of the summoned player made Radahn even harder. Summoning a player in Elden Ring before a boss fight will buff the enemy's health as a way to account for the higher damage output of multiple players. However, with the summoner losing their help, Radahn was essentially granted a free health buff. The clip appears to show another summon also getting knocked back by the attack, but it's unclear whether or not they survived the attack.
Despite Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree selling incredibly well, developers have stated there are no plans to create any more expansions for the game. FromSoftware has expressed its immense gratitude and excitement for how players are reacting to the new DLC, and unless the studio changes its mind, Shadow of the Erdtree will have to be enough to satisfy Elden Ring fans for the foreseeable future.
