Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Exit the Realm Travel room and visit Brok’s shop. Upgrade your equipment and ensure you have a Resurrection Stone.
  2. 2
    Use the Mystic Gateway to enter the realm between realms.
  3. 3
    Turn right and approach the edge for a leap of faith.
  4. 4
    Follow the linear path and enter the Jötunheim Tower.
  5. 5
    Place the Unity Stone on the pedestal. Prepare for combat.
  6. 6
    Wave 1: Kill the Broods. Use area of effect attacks with the Blades of Chaos (hold or button) to defeat the large group. Save Runic attacks for later waves.
  7. 7
    Wave 2: Kill the Dark Elf Lords. Fight a Dark Elf Lord, then another with a Gloom Nightmare. Stay mobile to avoid mines that can blind you. Prioritize killing Gloom Nightmares quickly. Consider using Runic Attacks and the Talisman of Unbound Potential to reset cooldowns.
  8. 8
    Wave 3: Defeat the Helheim Wave. Switch to the Blades of Chaos for increased damage against Hel-Reavers, Guards, and two Hel-Vikens. Use Blades of Chaos Runics for the Hel-Vikens. Double-tap block to break enemy shields.
  9. 9
    Wave 4: Defeat the Muspelheim Wave. Switch to the Leviathan Axe. Focus on the Fire Troll and Ogre. Stun the Ogre and keep distance from the Troll. Mount the Ogre to attack the Fire Troll and any spawning Draugr. If the Fire Troll survives, use Spartan Rage to finish it.
  10. 10
    Loot the spoils from the Fire Troll to obtain the **Wrath of Artemis** Light Runic Attack.
  11. 11
    Head toward the doors to return to Midgard.
Tips
  • Save your Spartan Rage for when you are low on health during difficult waves.
  • Holding down the or button with the Blades of Chaos provides a defensive area of effect attack.
  • Use Whirling Chaos to conserve Runic attacks for later, tougher waves.
  • When fighting Dark Elf Lords, stay on the move to avoid their mines.
  • Kill Gloom Nightmares as soon as they spawn.
  • Use Runic Attacks against the Dark Elf Lords and Gloom Nightmares.
  • Switch to the Blades of Chaos for the Helheim wave for greater damage.
  • Double-tap block to break the defensive stance of enemies with shields.
  • Use Murder of Crows to paralyze tougher enemies in the Helheim wave.
  • Switch back to the Leviathan Axe for the Muspelheim wave.
  • Use the mounted Ogre to deal heavy damage to the Fire Troll.
  • Consider using Spartan Rage or Runic Attacks to finish off the Fire Troll if it survives the Ogre attack.
  • Wrath of Artemis (Light Runic Attack)
