If you have reached the Statue of Radagon in Elden Ring, you are likely versed enough in the story of Goldmask and Corhyn to understand the implications of the puzzle’s solution. If you have not progressed their questline to Leyndell yet, and have not talked to Miriel at the Church of Vows, don’t solve the Statue of Radagon puzzle as the reveal will not mean as much without context given in dialogue with these NPCs.
Where Is The Statue Of Radagon In Leyndell?
The Statue of Radagon is located relatively deep into Leyndell, Royal Capital, found after defeating the golden shade of Godfrey. From the Erdtree Sanctuary Site of Lost Grace, head down the curving stairs to reach an elevator. Take the elevator down, fight off a few enemies, and you will see a massive Statue of Radagon against the towering wall, T-posing over the Royal Capital.
Knowing the location of the statue is one thing - being able to figure out its secret is another. Luckily, the solution is found nearby. However, most players will have to go back to Rennala and respec in order to be able to use this solution: the Golden Order Principia Prayerbook.
How To Solve The Statue of Radagon Puzzle
To get the Golden Order Principia Prayerbook, you have to get to the second level of the Erdtree Sanctuary. Head outside, east from the Erdtree Sanctuary grace, and hop onto a large vine that extends up to the second-floor balcony. Carefully climb up here, then continue right to go outside again. Immediately jump off the railing to your left and enter through a broken window to find this Prayerbook hanging from the ceiling - you can actually see it if you look up from the Site of Grace below.
Give the Prayerbook to Corhyn or Miriel, and learn the Law of Regression Incantation. The clue left outside the Statue of Radagon hints at this word - Regression - and simply casting the spell in front of the Statue reveals its secret. Unlike most Incantations, Law of Regression is based on Int rather than Faith as it is a Golden Order Incantation. To cast it, players must have a Sacred Seal and at least 37 Int. Once this requirement is met, stand in front of the statue, cast the Incantation, and learn the secret that the second Elden Lord’s sculptor hid.
Elden Ring is available now for PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Series X|S.
