What to Do With Remembrance of a God and a Lord In Shadow of the Erdtree

Where to Use Remembrance of a Lord and a God in the Shadow of the Erdtree

Greatsword of Radahn (Lord/Light)

The final boss fight against Radahn, the Promised Consort, is definitely one of the best in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. Radahn’s attacks aren’t too hard to dodge, but he has a large enough arsenal that the variety can overwhelm the player if not careful. The atmosphere in the arena, the music in the background, the phase transition, and everything in between is simply pristine.

If you manage to beat the would-be hand of god, which isn’t an easy feat, you will be rewarded with the Remembrance of a Lord and a God. This can be exchanged for one of three items, i.e., the Greatsword of Radahn (Lord), the Greatsword of Radahn (Light), or Light of Miquella.

Like all other Remembrances in the game, players can go to Finger Reader Enia to extract the power from the Remembrance of the final boss. Finger Reader Enia can be found at the Roundtable, in the first room to the right of the player once they teleport there.

Talk to to the old lady hunched over the bench in the Finger Reader’s room and select the option to Receive power from remembrance and choose your desired Remembrance, which is that of a Lord and a God in this case. Unlike other Remembrances, players can choose between one of three options for the final boss’ remembrance. These are as follows:

Greatsword of Radahn (Lord) : A colossal sword with the Promised Consort Ash of War.
Greatsword of Radahn (Light) : A colossal sword with the Lightspeed Slash Ash of War.
Light of Miquella : A faith-based spell that descends a huge column of light to descend on an enemy, with smaller pillars of light following up the attack.

Elden Ring: How To Update Elden Ring Seamless Co-op Mod

If you’re looking to successfully update the Seamless Coop Mod for Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, here’s how you can do it.

Greatsword of Radahn (Lord/Light)

Greatswords of black steel wielded by Radahn in his youth. A pair of weapons decorated with a lion mane motif. These were in his possession immediately before his triumph over the stars—the swords of a lord who does not rely on physical strength and gravity alone.

The Greatsword of Radahn is a Colossal Sword type weapon in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. It can be upgraded to +10 using Somber Smithing Stones and weighs 20.0. It deals 129 Physical and 83 Magic damage unmodified, with the Art of War dealing magic damage rather than holy.

The basic and strong attacks act in the exact same way in both variants. Interestingly, using a normal attack while jumping causes more damage compared to using a strong attack, at least when dual-wielding the weapon. This is because the strong attack only utilizes one sword, while the normal attack uses both. So, although the damage per blade is higher with a strong attack, the overall damage is higher for a normal attack.

The Ash of War is the only difference between the two different variants. Greatsword of Radahn (Lord) has the Promised Consort Ash of War, which costs 20 FP to cast, with each follow-up costing 10 FP. It can be followed up twice. The player does a five-move combo with pillars of light striking alongside the swords during the full Ash of War. The downside is that the player can be staggered during these attacks, reducing the value of them without a sufficiently high poise.

On the other hand, the Greatsword of Radahn (Light) has a much easier to use Ash of War, called Lightspeed Slash. This costs 26 FP, and can be charged up for a higher Poise damage. However, it can’t be followed up. The player rises into the air, and slams into the ground, traveling a short distance, and dealing a large amount of damage. Pillars of light follow this attack as well, with the number of pillars depending on whether the attack was charged or not. The high damage and low windup time makes this one of the best ashes of war in the game.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree – Every New Ash of War In The DLC

Here’s a guide to finding all the Ashes of War in Elden Ring’s DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree.

Light of Miquella

The strength of Miquella upon his deific return, wielded as an incantation. Annihilates foes with a pillar of light. Miquella sought to accept all that was and would be, but found one that refused to be embraced. No wonder, as one god, and one king consort, is all the world needs.

The Light of Miquella is an incantation in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree that costs 48 FP and takes up 2 Memory Slots. It cannot be charged and scales with FAI. The spell has one of the longest ranges in the game, making it great for farming enemies from a distance.

The Dryleaf Seal doesn’t buff the attack despite Miquella being in the name of the incantation.

If players can lock on to anything, the spell will hit them. If the enemy isn’t moving when the spell goes off, it will hit them, along with the additional pillars of light that follow up the main attack. The high stamina and mana cost is a big limiting factor in how often it can be used, but it’s a decent tool for taking care of elite or normal enemies. It’s generally not good for boss fights since they move so much, making the spell miss much more often.
