The game God of War Ragnarok from the Santa Monica Studio was officially released today to complete the journey of Kratos and Atreus in the Scandinavian lands, and if the game is within your interest, we offer you in today’s article some important tips to help you play as part of the series of tips that we offer you in Carryminate.
Continuous change between ax and swords according to the type of enemies
Keep this as a general rule throughout your game experience, the Leviathan Ax is best for single enemies, while the Blades of Chaos is good for slicing through hordes and large groups, some enemies also need exposure to certain elements to get the best possible effect and quickly drain their health, so in both Either way, learn to quickly switch between your weapons during clashes, there are also enemies that are best dealt with with Kratos’ melee attacks without using any weapon, if the enemy’s health bar is protected and not directly affected by attacks, it is best to continuously land melee attacks until it collapses and begins to drain its health .
Invest your time in upgrading your dribbling skills first
Some moves are used more than others throughout the life of the title, but if you switch between weapons a lot, stability is preferable to attacks that increase damage when hitting a target that suffers from the elemental effect of the other weapon, for example, freeze the enemy with your pickaxe, then switch to blades for a massive damage boost, or vice versa.
The best advice here is to upgrade the skills that allow you to do special attacks while dodging, considering how often you will do this, and in addition to the fact that these attacks are very powerful, they work efficiently throughout the life of the title, such as the Reverse Ax Spin which is capable of Hit and stun enemies in front of you as you walk away from them to catch your breath.
The choice of gear and armor is more important than the previous part
In the previous God of War, shields could be relied upon to provide extra strength in battles, some of them quite good, but all of them are generic and mainly applicable to a variety of playstyles, now shields and gear are more focused, designed to improve very specific tactics From gameplay and attacks, and once your options begin to expand, it’s a good idea to visit the store frequently and upgrade your equipment to see what suits your style of eliminating enemies faster, more effectively, and provides more fun for you.
Use the destructible elements to take down your enemies
Some arenas provide items that can be used to deal high damage to enemies, such as but not limited to white logs that Kratos uses to knock down all enemies in the vicinity, large pieces of rock that can be thrown at any opponent, explosive chests, and more that you will come across As you progress through the events, however, some of these items don’t appear as obvious, so be sure to walk around the battlefield to see all the items that give you an advantage in eliminating enemies, especially large groups.
Watch the arrows to see what types of attacks you are exposed to
We do not mean here the arrows that Atreus can use to help you in the various battles, but rather the arrows or rings that appear around Kratos and indicate surrounding threats during battles, the yellow arrow indicates that there is a nearby enemy about to attack you, and the red arrow means that there is an attack that will hit you within seconds, The purple arrow means that a projectile is coming towards you, keeping in mind that the red and purple attacks need to react very quickly or they will damage you badly if you don’t act.
Open Nornier chests as often as possible
Nornir chests are back, special chests that provide unique abilities and equipment and require decoding of 3 symbols hidden in the surroundings, such as statues to smash, cranes to move, torches to set on fire and other puzzles.
Nornier Chests usually contain pretty good stuff, so they’re always worth opening, but you won’t always be able to do it the first time, as some require new weapons and abilities that you won’t find until later in the life of the title, if you can’t unlock them yet Atreus or Mimir will usually tell you, and since those chests don’t appear on the map, always try to remember where they are, or check the stats for each of the nine worlds to see what activities you haven’t touched on yet.
Remember to buy Regeneration Stones frequently
To ensure you survive any tough battle and have an extra chance to finish off your opponents, always keep Regeneration Stones in your wallet, they can be bought cheaply from Brok or Sindri, though you are only allowed to carry one at a time, so if you fall in a battle, Press the Square button to make your ally rush in and give you a second chance to finish off your enemies.
