7. Run Away From Radahn

While most players probably already know how to run away from Radahn during his boss fight, few know a specific retreat tactic that makes his fight so much easier.

When you spawn into Radahn's arena, he starts with extremely difficult to dodge moves - firing his arrows directly at the player, before shooting a rain of arrows on top of you. Both of these moves can easily kill a player before they even reach Radahn, or are able to summon friends.

However, if the player immediately gets on Torrent and sprints AWAY from Radahn, turning around and riding directly towards the camera, it will despawn Radahn temporarily and stop him from shooting. When the player rides towards Radahn right after, he will shoot in a different direction, and switch to a slow-approaching ride towards the player to fight melee.

This removes some of Radahn's worst moves and makes him much fairer to fight close range, and gives the player time to prepare with buffs, or gives them time to summon friends, without worrying about arrows.

You could also try making him drown in his second phase to make things even easier.
