Here's a concise guide on how to tackle Radahn, Consort of Miquella, in the "Shadow of the Erdtree" DLC for Elden Ring:
Boss Overview
•Location: Radahn, Consort of Miquella, is located at the top of Enir-Ilim in the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion.
•Nature: He is a significant endgame boss, presenting a challenging fight with two distinct phases.
Preparations
Build Recommendations:
•Bleed Builds: Radahn is susceptible to bleed, making weapons like the Antspur Rapier or a bleed-infused weapon effective. Arcane over 30 can amplify this effect.
•Rot: In his first phase, Radahn has a weakness to Scarlet Rot. Using weapons or incantations that apply Rot can be beneficial.
•Tank Builds: For those opting for a more defensive approach, using the Verdigris Greatshield with high Endurance (at least 30) allows for effective blocking.
Talismans:
•Greatshield Talisman: Reduces stamina cost for blocking.
•Two-Headed Turtle Talisman: Speeds up stamina regeneration.
•Pearldrake Talisman +3: Offers Holy damage negation, crucial for the second phase.
•Golden Braid: Also helps negate Holy damage.
Spells and Items:
•Mixed Physick: Use during phase transitions to mitigate damage, especially from Miquella's holy light attacks.
•Chilling Perfume Bottles with Rolling Sparks: For dealing with his large hitbox in phase two.
Phase 1 Strategy 
•Poke and Block: Utilize a thrusting weapon with a greatshield. Poke after blocking his combos, especially after his slam attacks.
•Dodging: Dodge towards him and to the left to avoid most of his attacks. Wait a moment before rolling to dodge the delayed follow-up strikes from his combos.
•Initial Attack: If Radahn starts with his spin into a leap, sprint horizontally to avoid the initial charge and roll away when he lands.
Phase 2 Strategy (Radahn, Consort of Miquella)
•Miquella's Influence: He now has Holy elemental attacks, including a rain of light pillars. Use the environment to avoid these.
•New Moves: Watch for the grab attack; if grabbed, Miquella will charm you. Try to stay at a medium range to dodge this.
•Dodging: Continue dodging into him to avoid the aftershocks from his attacks.
•Status Effects: Bleed remains effective, but he's now also vulnerable to other status effects like Frostbite.
General Tips 
•Spirit Ashes: If not used yet, summon your Spirit Ash after his initial light shower in phase two for distraction.
•Be Aggressive: Look for opportunities to attack after his big moves, especially when he's recovering from attacks like his ground slam.
•Space Management: Keep some distance to read his moves but close it quickly for attacks when safe.
•Adaptability: Be prepared to change strategies based on his move patterns. If something's not working, adjust your approach or build.
