Elden Ring: Starscourge Radahn, buffed after accidental nerf last month

Elden Ring has only been released less than two months, but has already received several updates and patches to add NPC quest steps, new NPC icons for in-game maps, nerfs and buffs to popular weapons and abilities, and more.

In last month’s update, the infamous boss Starscourge Radahn was nerfed. Some of his attacks seemed less frequent, but what was more striking was that his attacks didn’t do as much damage as Radahn before the patch. However, this nerf turned out to be unintentional. Because in today’s new update, From Software calls it a bug, so it’s fixed now.

The patch notes stated, “In update 1.03, the bug where the power of some attacks was unintentionally reduced during the balance adjustment of the boss ‘Star Scourge Ladan’ has been fixed.

As you can see, From Software very clearly mentions the Radahn nerf as unintentional, and it’s also a bug that shouldn’t happen. We haven’t fought Radahn yet since this update, but we’re excited to see what the fight looks like now.

It’s important to note that today’s update is an update to a previously released patch, patch 1.03. As a result, this update will not do anything else for the Elden Ring. Simply correct the Radahn balance. For reference, Patch 1.03 was released in March and this update is ongoing as of April 4, 2022.
