Greatsword of Radahn (Light) | Elden Ring Wiki

light AOW Should be similar to Phantom Slash but updated and more specialized. At least, the charge creates two clones of you, as Radahn did.

Submit

For the millionth time, both of these swords should have been one weapon. The AoW should have been a stance where you can choose between either the consort combo or the lightspeed slash. The damage should have been either all holy or all magic, not magic on regular moves and holy on AoW's. The moveset should NOT be powerstanced colossal swords, that moveset is terrible. It should have either been paired curved greatswords, or hell, the way cooler option, the ringed knight paired greatswords moveset from dark souls III. That moveset makes perfect sense for this weapon, its how Radahn swings the swords around in the fight. CURRSSSEEE YOUUU FROMSOFTTTTT

Submit

Pls update page. It weighs 19 not 20. Same as lord version. Idk why it would be heavier

Submit

I'd give my left nut if they just reworked both versions into curved greatswords.

Submit

What’s the best build to use with this?

Submit

Amazing how this has no redeeming qualities. Lord version exists, with Promised Consort being 1:1 to Radahn's combo in his fight, and it utterly spanks on a Str/Int build. This ? No clone. Barely enough damage. Called "Lightspeed Slash" and it's so stupidly slow. I know I'm preaching to the choir here but you have exactly zero reason to pick this over Lord Radahn's Greatsword.

Submit

Is this a joke

Submit

You hate this sword because it isn’t one weapon with a stance, I hate this sword because you don’t clone yourself in the AoW like radahn does when he uses this attack
We are not the same

Submit

Just checked in game it weighs 19, the same as the lord version.

Submit

I was thinking one of the swords will do the multiple downward slash/crash that he does after throwing the purple rocks. Or at least create an after image after dashing to a straight line

Submit

I wish his second swords had his double lion claw skill, slower but with more stance damage

Submit

Just a suggestion for both the "Light" and "Lord" version, I highly recommend you invest at least 35 endurance, wear medium armor, and then attach the Great Jar talisman, the rest of the talismans you can use whatever you want. Then equip Radahn's "Light" swords in your right hand, then the "Lord" variant in your off hand. This way, you can press R1/RB and swing the "light" sword one handed, then press L1/LB to slam both swords down. It's a little odd, but hey, you might throw some of the opposing players in a loop!

Submit

This is why I Ctrl C and Ctrl V that remembrace of Miquedahn.

Not even worthy to try and fight him again just for this.

I don't even see people using this, besides Prod anyways.

Submit

This weapon is missing a couple thousand base dmg from its AOW...


Why is it so bad?? What is the incentive to use this over the "Lord" version????

Submit

i like em

Submit

I think that these two weapons represents Elden Ring wonderfully, it might look cool and shiny from the outside, but upon a closer inspection it reveals itself to be a copy and pasted disappointment, very flashy, but with no real substance.

Submit

fanboys will delude themselves into thinking that this is a good weapon and that it was worth the dozens of attempts to get the remembrance

Submit

This weapon is the epitome of a joke.

Submit

They really didn't put a single thought into these

Submit

It's a sword that evokes light, it has magic damage, but it doesn't need faith, but it needs intelligence? :O

Submit

Well, this is a bit of a let down. Two of the same weapon that are reskins of a weapon we already had, with the same moveset apart from the ash…

I was thinking too much, but i was hoping, with how cool LGS, swift spear, and BHB are, that young Radahn’s gravity blades would use the gravity magic glyphs on the blades, which would be more intact unlike starscourge radahn’s swords, to make them lighter, giving them a uniquely faster moveset that matches some of Radahn’s attacks…

Submit

would have been cool if the ash on this did the attack where radahn jumps into the air and flings boulders. if this is gonna be separate from the lord version, at least give it something other than a similar looking light beam attack

Submit

Is it even a single person using this in 2024?

Maybe we need to wait until 2026 for everyone to use at least once this?

Submit

this thing makes the wolf ring in ds3 look viable, also obligatory 100 new weapons joke

Submit

Nah, I killed him for his fit and nothing else. If I wanted to use his sword, I would've used his REAL sword so I could scream at people, as I've always wanted to do.

Submit

PCR (Promised Consort Radahn): [does wide arc swings, thrusts, lion's fang, sweeps, slams and starscourge howl]

Tarnished: [slam... sweep... slam...]

Submit

the most ass weapon you can get after defeating one of the hardest boss in the game.
buff did little to nothing. still hits like wet noodles compared to the boss. weapon skill could've easily been a stance skill with lord version. no unique light attack or heavy attack + dogwater scalings.
what a disappointment of a remembrance boss weapon even more so than other DLC boss weapons. needs complete rework from ground up.

Submit

After the patch this thing hits muuuuuch harder

Submit

I think these should've had the spinning gravity slam radahn starts the fight with. This weapon skill can't hold a candle to the lord variant.

Submit

Interesting that it notes both the greatswords with Miquella's needles on them as the ones wielded by Radahn right before he conquered the stars; and that he didn't rely on "physical strength and gravity alone". Miquella aided him in stopping the stars, maybe?

Submit

Should've been curved greatswords

Submit

Fromsoft naming convention nonsense strikes again.

It's not a Greatsword, it's not a Light Greatsword and it's not even lighter than than any of the other two Radahn sword weapons. In fact, it's heavier than the Lord Greatsword.

Submit

At the very least they could've given one of these pairs bleed buildup and the bloodflame slashes as the Skill, so together with the Starscourge Greatswords they could represent all three elements Radahn uses in the fight. Or, you know, given them Holy damage and Fai scaling to match the literal holy damage skill. Anything at all so they're not literally just the Starscourge Greatswords again with a different skill.

Submit

just use maliketh black blade or godslayer greatsword lol

Submit

int lmao

Submit

Whoever hired the convergence mod guy just to add these modded ass weapons and final boss should be fired, ****ing 40 usd and 2 years for this ****

Submit

Sorry Artorias, Radahn gets SIX swords, have fun with your three, though.

Submit

Gave it a whirl (after full playthrough with Lord version which turned out to be one of the best in the game) and I'd say Light still holds up. VERY quick animation, ability to jump over many attacks (both cool and efficient), and quite decent stance damage. The damage itself is fair too, better than most of what DLC offers. Plus it can serve as sudo-heavy attack, since with Radahn weapons the heavies are kind of useless.

Doesn't have the insane output of Lord, but still a really good weapon. Give it a spin at least for those opportunities to deliver good damage from the "jump up" animation.

Submit

It's ironic that the light version is heavier.

Submit

There is no point in using these over the lord version. They are exactly the same but the lord’s weapon art does more damage, harder to miss, useful in more situations and it generally better then PvP. This things weapon art is kinda pitiful in the damage compartment and if your just going to use the sword the base game version does the most and is longer.

Submit

the swords of a lord who does not rely on physical strength and gravity alone.
Apparently radhan's suppression of stars is a debuff for him.

Submit

Isn't the light standing for miquella's Light?
In the french localisation, it's translated as "légers" meaning that they are light as in not heavy.

Is it that ambiguous in english?

Submit

Charging it should make you do the 3 charges in a row he does in the boss fight, thought for sure that’s what the description meant about more followups

Submit

Radahn has SIX swords. 6!!!!!!

Submit

Weapon Skill is scaled by faith for whatever reason

Submit

Wgt 20?! This Greatsword isn't light at all!

Submit

Should've just allowed us to swap the two skills, elden ring: now with monster hunter switch skills

Submit

I literally cannot see whats happening on screan if i happen to invade someone using these things, amazing balancing fromsoft

Submit

instead of two copies of the same sword, with extremely similar (looks wise) AoW, I wish we had gotten one that has a gravity AoW, and one with a light AoW

Submit

Somehow, these are inferior damage-wise to the Starscourge Greatsword, even at ideal stats. What was FromSoft thinking?

Submit

I think the weight is supposed to be 19 (compared to the 20 of Radahn GS)

Submit

Looking at the name I was kind of hoping this was a Light greatsword single-version of Radahn's greatswords. Alas.

Submit

looks like follow up dont work or something?

Submit

possibly my biggest complaint about the dlc so far is the fact that they make you choose between these two amazing ashes of wars likely to balance it for pvp and i get that but man it would've been really cool to just make this a stance weapon and make L2 R1 do Promised Consort and L2 R2 Lightspeed Slash

Submit

Well the range is better than starscourge, but this WA has less damage than the other one, also it feels easier to dodge. On top of all that, this one has a charged WA which makes you stationary the other versions WA can be stopped or continued based on how many times you tap the button. They really should make only one sword with an stance, didn't know what they were thinking... if not by the range even vanilla version would be objectively better

Submit

really hope they buff the ash of war on this, fully charged with shard of alexander and godfrey icon... it does less damage than a light attack. really disappointing for final boss weapon.

Submit

Incredible theres 3 copy pastes of this weapon now and their only difference is the ash of war, atleast could've changed the r2s or something

Submit

They should have made these a part of the curved greatsword class instead of colossal to better reflect his size when not rotted.

And you know.. something else to differentiate between his regular ones.

Submit

Why are there two of them? Why are none of them Faith?

Submit

Don't know if its bugged but the skill does like no damage

Submit

"the swords of a lord who does not rely on physical strength and gravity alone." What else does this lord rely on? Apparently, miquella's light. More evidence he was not being controlled. These swords imply his autonomy.

Submit

kinda disappointed with the weapons considering that you just beat the hardest boss in the game

Submit

I think the Int scaling here represents the gravity magic for lore reasons. Look at the symbol on the sword. Thats a gravity seal and gravity = magic i think?

Submit

"Before is Triumph over stars"

So why INT scaling?

Submit

btw this is a paired greatsword in itself like the starscourge greatswords
that means you can't even logically combine the lord and light variants unless you want to fight with 4 swords in total

Submit

It seems like the Holy damage after the initial hit does almost 0 damage, not sure whats up with that.

Submit

>says greatsword
>is a colossal sword
>looks like a curved greatsword
yea cool

Submit

I really don't get why we needed two weapons with different weapon arts, couldn't they just have made it a stance WA like katanas or SoNaF?

Submit

Why are BOTH of these new swords Int based? Despite using Miquella's holy magic on them?

Submit

> Called (Light)

> Is heavier than its retrained counterpart
