Radagon's Rings of Light | Elden Ring Wiki

Can’t tell what to think about this incantation. It has crowd control and good damage, yet it has heavy intelligence requirements that cut off its accessibility since int/faith builds are difficult to make strong without sacrificing health/endurance/mind lvl points. Don’t get me wrong the incant has a neat use. But it demands so much the benefit gets overshadowed by most other incantations that can show similar results with better types of damage and lower requirements

Submit

Can this thing go through walls? If so it would make a good tool for invasions

Submit

Go to the coliseum, cast endure, cast this, repeat

Submit

completely useless without hyperarmor

Submit

There aren’t enough Holy incantions that don’t require intelligence.

Submit

It's so cool but so unreliable in pvp. Sure it's cheap, sure it has range but God forbid you cast it directly in front of someone. It has 0 hyperarmor & takes longer than endure just to cast so don't even bother with that. Oh yeah & it's so telegraphed they will just roll through it anyways. Have fun! (Radagon icon required)

Submit

Since it deals holy damage, does it benefit more from the faith scaling? If I just get to the minimal faith requirement and invest solely on intelligence, will the damage be bad?

Submit

this badboy deals around 3k dmg with few buffs at 35/35 int faith with +10 golden order seal to fire giant, anyone making a run focused solely on beating the game with golden order incantations should make this and basic ring of light their main priority

Submit

The charged version is fine in PvE, the range is significantly better than a charged Wrath of Gold while still dealing comparable damage and knockdown and the cast time isn't that much longer. The uncharged version really needs to be speed up though since it already lacks the knockdown effect of Wrath. I don't think the low FP cost is enough of an advantage on its own, Discus of Light is still really good even before you take into account the cost.

Submit

I reall like the appeal of the golden order spells but this one in particular needs a cast speed buff. It hits very hard but is way too slow to be viable imo. You need a lot of poise to make it work, which is quite a big ask on a build that needs to pour levels so heavily into two stats for damage. Radagons icon only helps to dish out the uncharged spell right when you get hit and staggered out of the animation if you time it correctly. Most of the time the trade isn't worth it tho.

Submit

Even when you have maximum dex for cast speed this spell is still ridiculously long to cast. I have not found a time in PvE where Discus of Light isn't just better.

Submit

All the people who complain about this and other golden order incantations needing INT clearly didn't put points into INT IRL either.

Submit

Pair with endure so people can't interrupt you casting this.

Submit

A spell created by Radagon being affected by the Godfrey icon. Ironic.

Submit

It can also go through walls to some extent, great for corner checking enemies that like to ambush you

Submit

Exceptional synergy with wrath of gold in pvp. If someone gets staggered but not knocked down by the uncharged ring, hit wrath of gold. Then uncharged radagons rings again. If someone gets knocked down by wrath of gold or radagons rings, use another radagons ring: uncharged at close range, fully charged if they’re gonna panic roll away. And then hit wrath of gold again if it misses and they try to punish radagons rings.

Submit

Lore implications? Miquella gifts his father rings that return but radagon gifts Miquella rings that don’t return... maybe Radagon was showing Miquella “the right way” according to the golden order but Miquella was onto a new way that’s better.

Submit

The equivalent of the "F*** you" incantation.
Step 1: equip Golden Order Seal, heavy armor (for poise), Radagon's Icon, Sacred Scorpion Charm, Flock's Canvas, and Godfrey Icon
Step 2: use Golden Vow for buff and wondrous physick with Holy cracked tear and whatever else
Step 3: *KABOOM*

Submit

Do these spells increase dmg with int and faith or do u just pump faith after int?

Submit

cool attack though I will never like something that has both Faith and Intelligence requirements

Submit

Honestly, this is underrated as hell for killing bosses in range. Huge area, undodgable, chargable, solid damage, could be boosted by Radiant Gold Mask, Golden Order Seal, etc.
Works against any boss except Elden Beast, even against Radagon.

The only problem of this spell is cast time, it is sooooo big

Submit

“Chargeable”

Standing still like a doofus with your arms wide m charging this is going to get you thumped hard or swarmed.

Submit

This is a situational incantation, and I wouldn't use this over golden land with blackflame blade against the last two death rite birds or instead of Therolina against those revenants at Elphael. But this incantation is exceptionally good for killing basilisks. One at a time or the whole pack in one cast, timed right it blows them away before they can exhale their deathblight.

Submit

I'm NOT a fan of incantations having an INT requirement like this incantation, triple rings of light, law of causality, and law of regression all have. I don't buy into the idea some players are selling about it making sense lore wise. I couldn't possibly give less f**ks about the lore. Restricting these incantations to hybrid casters is bad from a game-play point of and bad from a pissing players off point of view.

Submit

such an underrated spell

Submit

the knock back on this spell is so goofy, it just throws around smaller enemies

Submit

it is so funny to catch people's jump attacks with this one. "im sorry sir, Im too busy Tposing to take damage."

Submit

I found a pretty nice use for this spell -- if you stand between the legs of a mausoleum and cast it, several of skull deposits at once. You can knock a mausoleum down in 3 casts.

Submit

Based on the icon I thought it was like litany of proper death but with a cone of holy instead of a little ripple.

Submit

why do these need int, doesn't make sense to me

Submit

When I first heard the name I hoped it was Radagons attack where he thrusts a lightspear into the ground and it explodes and this holy circle which damages you with many ticks appears

Submit

The only way I can describe this spell is deceptive, in a good way. It's reach is deceptively long, and it's damage is deceptively high. You get a lot of bang for your buck at only 25FP. The only real problem is the cast time (you get no hyper armor during this), but you can neutralize that with radagon's icon. Pretty solid in both PVE and PVP.

Submit

I tend to land this a lot on PvP as a follow-up to Triple Rings of Light. They either tend to rush you and get hit by the charged version or try to focus on the TRoL and don't expect this thing's range to be so good.

Submit

I hate leveling intelligence so late in the game

Submit

a high end, late game incantation suddenly needing 31 INT before you can even pick it up is a dumbass design decision, cos everyone who has put levels into FTH, you know...so they can use incantations in the first place, will have 31 INT as well just in case From Software decide to take the piss and lock incantations behind a high INT level later on.

Submit

This spell is one that you have to use intelligently, much like the other golden order incantations. You use this immediately after triple rings on an opponent closing in or under the protection of magic flint blade and/or glintstone phalanx. Charge it up and the range will surprise passive players hovering nearby. This knocks people down and does very good damage. A lot of people saying it needs poise need to just use wrath of gold. If it had poise there would be no way for melee builds to pressure at all. Use wrath of gold for its purpose of close quarters dirty fighting and use this for its purpose of hitting a wider area while stacking with other spells or incantations. This requires intelligence to cast and real life intelligence to use.

Submit

Is it possible to crouch to avoid the attack in pvp?

Submit

Sadly, this missed out on the poise upgrade a lot of incantations got, so it's one of the least appealing crowd control options now. Its low cost and good damage make it good for surprise attacking clumped enemies, but it's hard to fit it in to actual combat compared to other options like Lansseax's Glaive or Glintstone Arc that either have hyperarmor or cast so fast they don't need it. Considering how much stat allotment it needs, it really should either have good poise, more range, or more speed.

Submit

Idk if this is special to this incantation, but when I use it behind on large enemies (trolls), it NEVER aggros them, and i can spam the rings of light till it dies..

Submit

this is a very satisfying PvE spell, and the charged version is good for farming albinuriacs at mohgs

Submit

The problem with the ring spells is the lack of any poise while casting.

Rings of Light and Triple Rings of Light work better because they can travel distance.

This has a pretty slow windup and I find myself struggling to find a good distance timing for this. Bosses can rush in too fast and punish too hard yo use this.

I like the increase in damage though, at least it has that!

Submit

Nobody expects this if you cast in behind black flame ritual and the huge aoe often catch them

Submit

What damage type does this do??? I wish that people would label the damage types for all of theses spells. Spells like these don't make it obvious of what damage type it is suppose to produce.

Submit

As of 1.04 the danage numbers have gone up. (Fully charged) I was seeing the night before 1200~ on some death frogs as surprised attacks and 900~ as they were attacking me

and now is 1700~ surprise attacks and 1200~ as they were attacking me so around 30% damage buff. Also feels faster. Still slow but for its range the speed is letting me hit things before trading now

Submit

"It could do nothing to treat Malenia's accursed rot" literally some book in a chair: Cures anything, including rot, and the build-up, plus reveals mimicry.

Submit

From what I can see it's a high risk, high reward spell. Very nice damage but difficult to land; no hyper armour.

Submit

Fort, light

Submit

if you actually build properly this spell is incredible, hits for 2.3k+ per charged hit and arguably the largest AOE in the game(besides maybe scarlet aeonia but who wants to spend 7 seconds casting and getting bashed on lol)

Submit

Super low range and no hyper armor makes this way too hard to actually use in combat

Submit

Too slow to be really useful, the ring spells need a buff would love if the throwing had some kind of tracking like Xena warrior princess levels.

Submit

This spell does chunks if you're doing a faith/int build with the Golden Order seal. With the Radiant Gold Mask, Sacred Scorpion charm, and Godfrey's icon, this spell becomes a tactical AOE nuke. Additionally, the fully charged spell has huge knocks over enemies. Kind of impractical in PvP, but still very effective in PvE, and very fun to use.

Submit

This thing needs some degree of hyper armor or a modicum of poise because even with Radagon icon and decent dex it takes forever to cast this thing. Decent damage and range tho

Submit

The image for the spell list page has Litany of Proper Death over this spell (mobile)

Submit

Huge range, tons of damage, even when not fully charged. It's a shame it doesn't have the same anti-Death effect as Litany of Proper Death, though that probably would've made it a little too strong

Submit

Ring damages through objects

Submit

The perfect spell for farming the albinaurics at Dynasty Mausoleum Midpoint

Submit

Using the sword of night and flame motivated me to make a hybrid build of Int and Faith, and this spell is absolutely perfect for it. Not just in PVE but also in PVP as a sort of pseudo-wrath of gods tool for aggressive players.

Submit

The charge-up with 40 dex and the radagon icon is a little slower than I'd like, but this spell absolutely tears through mobs.

I was seeing damage numbers of 1800 un-charged and 2200 fully charged with 35 int/40 faith, a +10 golden order seal, holy talisman damage, and the basic faith scaling talisman.

Submit

This is a good spell due to the massive range the ring got, but sadly the Int/Faith requirement are going to cripple you in this game.

A couple (not all) order spells feel like they want to be DS2/3 Hexes, and there is a talisman that does help with the sorta Int/Faith spread you would do in those games (as well as boosts Order type spells, on top). However, the biggest drawback is that no Holy Damage on any weapon scales with Int/Faith like Dark damage did, nor are all Order type spells even Int/Faith to begin with. There is one weapon that scales with both Int and Faith, but that's because it deals Magic and Fire damage.

If there would be a type of infusion (Like an "Order" infusion dealing Holy damage which scales with both Int/Faith) and about 1 or 2 more weapons (like some of all those Order weapons) that scale with both Int and Faith, these Order type spells would find more proper use, especially since all of them feel more like additives for weapon combat and some of those already very few Order spells are... of questionable usefulness.

wrong pic

FIX THE IMAGE, i killed the cleric at the end of the game cause i tought that i have forgot to buy this lol

the wiki has the wrong image as to what is used in game

Wrong spell icon

Submit

at the guy below me: no spells/incantations scale with anything. its entirely based on the tool you use to cast them and what it scales with.

Submit

Its scale with Faith??

Submit

The icon is different

Submit

This properly damages non-undead as well. If charged, the area of effect is huge by the way. Think 5 or 6 rolls in distance.
