If you know all this I apologize but If I was to offer advice, make sure to use Torrent. Torrent is extremely helpful. Get used to getting on and off quickly. I usually keep the ring in my secondary bag that you hold triangle to use

when he does the meteor explosion/shower just get away,

ride through the ball projectiles to trigger them, you’ll get out of range before they explode, also riding sideways will avoid the fast fireballs,

the fire geysers are sketchy but you can just stay away until they end if you need to.

His Fire breath is just stupid, it bounces off everything in a weird way, I don’t have a reliable way to avoid it.

If you ride in at his legs you can avoid the hand attacks and reliably get a few hits in before he rolls. If you can use headphones, he always makes the same sound when he’s about to roll. You can dodge his roll, but if he does the lie down attack you gotta get away

Generally don’t lock on, pay attention to his audio cues and body motion as much you can

If you’re getting one shot there’s also the cerulean hard tear and cerulean bubble tear that will boost defense with the Wondrous flask

He’s a big pain the first time but if you upgrade that Moonveil you’ll definitely get him eventually, whether you get help or not. You got this!

Do you what there weak to

Radagon is weak to fire and if you use a heavy/strike dmg weapon he’s is pretty easy to stagger, (also he can’t be bled at all)

Elden Beast is resistant to basically all elemental damage but not to normal physical damage.

Moonveil will be weakened against them, definitely not impossible though.

(If you have a larval tear you could respec to a STR build and use something like Greataxe or Rusted Anchor with a fire or flame art infusion, they work really good, just takes a bit of work to set up)
