Elden Ring Patch 1.14 makes the final boss of Shadow of the Erdtree easier

FromSoftware has released a new update for Elden Ring which brings with it a number of adjustments, Shadow of the Earth Tree's final boss.

Promised Husband Radahn is widely considered to be the expansion's toughest foe by players who have faced him face-to-face, so some who have had trouble with him will be happy to hear that the final boss has now been significantly nerfed.

As detailed in the version 1.14 patch notes, FromSoftware has changed the boss's action pattern at the start of the fight – which could mean he no longer rushes headfirst at you when you enter the arena – and some attack moves have been adjusted as well, although it doesn't mention which ones.

Additionally, some of Radahn's attacks have had their damage and stamina reduced, and the attack range of some non-weapon-based attacks (which may affect his third phase abilities) and visibility of some attack effects have been improved.

In addition to the highlight of the patch, the update also made adjustments to PvP equipment and skills, while a selection of base game equipment, summons and spells received the usual optimizations.

Possible unstable performance corrections

On the PS5 version of the game, an unstable frame rate can potentially be improved by using the “Rebuild Database” option in the device's Safe Mode.
On some PC versions, Ray Tracing may be inadvertently enabled and cause unstable performance. Please check the Ray Tracing settings under “System” > “Graphics” > “Ray Tracing Quality” on the title screen or in-game menu.
In the PC version, the message “Inappropriate activity detected” can appear without cheating. To resolve this issue, please verify the integrity of the game files before restarting the game.
In the PC version, unstable frame rate may be caused by third-party applications that control mouse behavior. Disabling these third-party applications may improve performance.
