Elden Ring geniuses discover how to beat Shadow of the Erdtree's final boss without fighting him at all, just by making him get bored and leave

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree final boss Radahn stares into the camera, holding a sword in each hand.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree's final boss is a tough one, to say the least, but it turns out there's an incredibly easy way to defeat him without fighting him at all, because he can just get bored and leave the battle, killing him instantly. 

Consort Radahn usually brings with him two whole phases of pain, but as demonstrated in a video by Elden Ring player Sheng Qian on YouTube (but seemingly first discovered by a player on BiliBili), if he can't see you in the arena, he'll just give up. This strategy requires you to use the Assassin's Gambit Ash of War skill and the Unseen Form sorcery – both of which individually grant near-invisibility.
