How to prepare to fight Radahn
This boss is known as the "Radahn Stellar Scourge" since he was able to stop the movement of the stars with his demigod powers according to the game's story. It's to be expected then that the fight against him won't be the easiest, and indeed it isn't. It takes about ten warriors to go up against him with any success and, for this reason, various summons can be used while you battle on your horse.
Among his powers was the control of gravity, since he needed to reduce the weight of his body in order not to hurt his horse. The animal was the only one who managed to stay by his side and survive his rottenness after he was corrupted by Malenia's ability. Even though it was nerfed in an update, your battle can still be a lot of work if you don't prepare properly.
In order to be prepared to defeat Radahn of Elden Ring, it is of the utmost importance to have a shield that offers magical resistance and talismans that help keep you alive during combat, such as those that reduce damage and increase HP.

Another important piece of advice for defeating Radahn of the Elden Ring is to practice horseback riding in other, simpler battles so that you don't make any mistakes before the fight itself. The rest of the preparation will depend solely on your build, since for mages it's interesting to equip magical abilities Loretta's Meteorite and Big Bow, and for physical combat the best are the Tallow powers of Scarlet Rot or Hemorrhage.
