A solo, melee only speedkill at Rune Level 1 (RL1) of Radagon of the Golden Order / Elden Beast, of 2:35 min from health bar showing (00:23) to last hit (2:58). If counting from first hit dealt to Radagon (0:30), this is a 2:31 min fast kill. Also done with no hits taken.

This is the final boss of Elden Ring : a fight with Radagon the Red, the male half of Marika, followed by a confrontation with the physical manifestation of the Elden Ring itself under the form of a giant nebulous god beast. Radagon himself is fast with a lot of melee/projectiles combos, but his vulnerability to frost and scripted phase transitions make relatively easy to get a short fight. The real problem with this bossfight is the Elden Beast itself, with its massive health pool immune to auxiliary effects (or "ailments") and its unavoidable Elden stars orb attack. The strategy to no hit this boss revolves around using the Flame of the Redmanes Ash of war to inflict high poise damage and stagger the Elden Beast as it reaches the hp threshold and starts casting the Elden stars orb. The fight is almost won as soon as the stagger is successful and the orb cancels, then it's just a matter of chasing down the Beast for the final blows.
