Today I go over some God of War Ragnarok tips and tricks for combat to make life easier. God of War Ragnarök can be a pretty brutal game, so here’s some tips that helped me out in my playthrough.

Game of the year
Nilfheim 😆
The L is after the F in NIFLHEIM.
Does poison work on bosses?
Love your voice man.
Wow
Couple clarifications- Despite not receiving XP or hacksilver for killing enemies in Niefleheim training pit… You do still receive the XP for the labor for completing each skill.
Tip with Stonewall Shield … it can only block the yellow parry attack until it’s fully charged (4 hits i believe to fully charge). Once it’s fully charged, the next yellow circle attack will break your guard like any other shield. So just be sure to expend the shield never often with a shield strike whether it’s fully charged yet or not if your fighting enemies that convo quickly… because if they break your guard early in a combo, on higher difficulties you can easily die to a combo of attacks.
A correction- you mentioned being able to parry back projectiles… I don’t believe all the shields are able to parry projectiles. I’m pretty sure the Stonewall can only block them, not redirect them.
strength is everything defence is useless if you aren't playing on the hardest difficulty you aren't experienceing everything game has to offer
Solid tips sir, I’m subbing!
Is it just me or is the axe like 3x better than the blades?
I had no idea about spear siphon ability. Thank you and good luck with your channel <3
The Parrying in this game is wack some of the mobs you can’t even tell when they’re about to do a basic attack because the camera is so closed in or not wide enough for bigger mobs they just go super speed and fuck your health really frustrating yellow attacks and blue attacks are perfect just wish they’d put a white ring around basic attacks
How do you get to fight the statues?
Thanks for the help 🙂
Not a combat tip per say but the portals that you use to teleport. They refill your health when you open them. So you can open one and close it for full health if you're passing by
I cant believethis nigga just said NILf heim and no one says anthing to correct him thats eveb more dissapointing
Combat feels random af
Great tips.
Fun fact, if you go into the Gameplay settings you can make it so you can charge your Chaos Blades by just holding the button like the axe. It’s the setting that changes all tap functions (cut scene stuff and the like) from tap to hold.
Ffffuuuuuccckk.. I stopped the video at the spoiler, then my youtube autoplayed your video.. we get a spear😮😭
Also you forgot to mention that you don't have to use a resurrection stone if you go down early in an encounter. It's better to save it and use tactically during tough encounters until you are confident you can finish the fight.
Parrying is the way
Beat it over the weekend and it feels so short. I need more
Dude its pronounce NEEFILHEIM not milfime
You can also change settings so that you can collect items by walking over them rather than constantly having to position yourself and then press 'O' – so much better. You can also change the setting so you can climb walls/jump over barriers without pressing 'O' too. Makes the game so much better.
I'm holding out for MILFheim DLC.
It just feels like they took a few steps backwards in terms of combat. The worthless spin for the chains that was the hold L2 from the first game, and why in gods name did they get rid of the bare knuckle skill tree and change stance moves. The spear is so weak and unversatile
Thanks god, I'm not the only one who try to tap for parry but this game "just hold it " is more effective.
Thanks for that stone wall shield tip, I'm finna tank dam near everything now
The game also doesn't tell you the shield L1 only works half the time. You can mash the button all day but Kratos just stands there to get killed so Mimir can make fun of you for not using the shield because this game's control inputs don't work. And when the shield DOES come up, you're able to use it ONCE against a larger enemy before they're given unfair advantage to continually beat you up till you die. The game won't let you dodge out of the way or recover, doesn't matter what buttons you push WAY in advance. You're going to get killed because the control mechanics DO NOT WORK.
whats the difference beetwen the green, yellow and red ring???
You *Can perfect parry Yellow attacks… There are 2 types of parry's just fyi
I am NOT liking the controls for combat. For some reason the quick turn options just SUCK! I don't know why but I just can't get a quick turn when needed in combat. I find myself slowly turning 9 out of 10 times.
Wait…you can fight those dudes!? 🧐
I swear none of these tutorial channels have ever played the game because they litterally say the names of the realms in the game. What the fuck is a milfheim
STOP SAYING NILFHEIM
I can not emphasize this enough but focus on element it's easier to apply burn then switch to any other weapon that has their runic abilities ready to go so you can combo into them for huge damage
NIFLheim =/= NILFheim.
Nilfheim not to be confused with milfheim.
A spoiler warning would have been nice.
You can also use R2 + L1 on nightmares to grab and throw them if you have the chaos blades equipped
Do you really need tips? Im on hard mode and i find it way too easy 😅 i cant imagine how unchallenging it is at normal
Nilfhiem💀
I didn’t use resurrection stones to add a challenge
My game is glitched and enemies instantly respawn so when you fight the witch that turns into a dragon in Niflheim, and win, she returns immediately. So I began a training exercise and can beat her while fighting mobs of enemies while invincible and keep getting the stuff she drops at the end over and over and over. It's not as helpful as it sounds though, and as a dragon, she can kill you if she stomps on you so you have to keep your distance but it's not hard to keep doing. I wish that glitch would get patched already. It's impossible to 100% because the realm tears don't let you reach in after to get the loot so I can never finish my game entirely because of this stupid glitch and it's very frustrating.
For those of you that don’t know you can power up the blades real quick by double tapping L1 with a shield (I prefer dauntless) and hitting triangle right after animation changes on PS5 your controller also gives a different vibration feel. This will instantly power up the flame ability and you can use the R1/R2 ability and with the handle that refills cooldown it works on all your abilities and relics! It’s damn right game breaking!
Just noticed the two trolls in the beginning of the video are both named Golrab which is an anagram for Barlog aka the director of the last game
Neefl-heim
