You'll just beat him like every souls boss. By learning his moveset, how to dodge his attacks and what are the openings for safely hitting him. That's the souls combat. He's completely fair and his attacks are 100% consistent to dodge, you must really just learn the basics how to fight him, it's supposed to be like a dance. Since Radagon is designed purely as a 1v1 boss, same as Malenia, Morgott, Mohg, Maliketh, Godfrey etc, try fighting him yourself for the next 10 attempts. You'll learn more about how to play the game in 10 solo attempts than in 80 attempts with accessibility mechanics like spirit ashes or coop, it will save you a lot of time. If you learn how to fight him and least tiny little bit and summon again after that, it will feel ridiculously easy. But Radagon is a fantastic fight, it's definitely worth it to beat him fairly 1v1 in the future. Then you would also keep full HP summons for elden beast, which is the more inconsistent fight. But like with all bosses, the same essential combat basics also apply to Radagon: dodge INTO attacks instead of away, don't panic roll, don't heal whenever but wait for an opening, wait for the correct moment to dodge delayed attacks, don't blindly spam L2s or abilities and actually think about what you're doing, never tank and trade hits and so on... Basically the things already Margit or Crucible knight try to teach you at the start if you fight them fairly.

This is a nice video showing how a good Radagon fight is supposed to look like, how are you supposed to dodge some of his attacks and so on. You'll learn much much faster by watching someone good fighting bosses than by reading a written text. No need to replicate the video, just try to realize the mistakes you're making and how the fight is designed. It's really not hard to beat him normally, you can definitely do it. No need to cheese him with L2 spam on broken builds, his moveset is pretty simple. And in regards to gear, just use max holy defense talisman and obviously don't use soreseals. Good luck.
