Silver: Trip 50 Enemies (750 XP)
Gold: Trip 100 Enemies (3500 XP)

Silver: Shatter 20 Frozen Enemies (750 XP)
Gold: Shatter 30 Frozen Enemies (3500 XP)
Shattering occurs when an enemy is killed while in a frozen state, achieved by dealing enough Frost damage. Leviathan Axe Runic attacks and Permafrost skills can inflict Frost damage.

Stun Grabs are performed after filling an enemy's stun gauge (via arrows or punches) and initiating a finisher with [R3]. Shock Arrows for Atreus and certain Muspelheim Trials can aid in this.

Judgement of Fire
Bronze: Kill 15 Burning Enemies (250 XP)
Silver: Kill 30 Burning Enemies (750 XP)
Gold: Kill 60 Burning Enemies (3500 XP)
This Labor is completed by defeating enemies while they are on fire. Utilizing environmental hazards like bombs or fire, and later game weapons, can help achieve this.

Reaper
Bronze: Cleave 25 Enemies (250 XP)
Silver: Cleave 50 Enemies (720 XP)
Gold: Cleave 100 Enemies (3500 XP)
The Executioner's Cleave skill, unlocked in the Close Combat tree for 500 XP, is required. Perform the skill by holding [R2] to charge and then slamming the axe down. Damage to enemies counts towards the Labor.
