Learn how to defeat Beigadr the Feared, a Berserker boss in Svartalfheim, in God of War Ragnarök. This guide details his attacks and provides strategies for victory.
Location: Alberich Island, Svartalfheim. Teleport to The Watchtower Mystic Gateway and travel north. The gravestone is on the beach.
Activation: Requires the Hilt of Skofnung, obtained during the story mission “The Word of Fate”.
Stats / Weaknesses:
- Beigadr primarily uses thunder-based attacks.
- Many of his attacks can stun or root Kratos, leaving him vulnerable to follow-ups.
- The ThunderBall attack is unblockable and requires precise dodging.
Phases:
- Beigadr will use a variety of ranged thunder attacks, including Teleport Smash (Red-Ring), Thunder Orbs, Thunder Wave, and ThunderStorm (Red-Ring).
- He may also use melee attacks like Thunder Fists and Thunder Spark (Yellow-Ring).
- The ThunderBall (Red-Ring) attack is a significant threat, requiring precise timing to dodge.
Strategy:
- Beigadr is a ranged-focused boss. Prioritize dodging his thunder attacks.
- Teleport Smash: Sidestep or roll away from the green circle indicator. This is a good opportunity to attack.
- Thunder Fists: Block, parry, or dodge this standard two-hit combo.
- Thunder Spark (Yellow-Ring): Dodge to the side and counter-attack. Not worth parrying.
- Thunder Orbs: Dodge or sidestep the two quick orbs. Can be blocked.
- ThunderBall (Red-Ring): This is the most dangerous attack. Wait until the last moment to dodge roll to the side or backward. Getting hit will root you, requiring rapid button presses to escape.
- Thunder Wave: This attack semi-tracks. Dodge to the side at the last second, or bait and switch by moving one way and then dodging the other. It is blockable, but be wary of follow-ups.
- ThunderStorm (Red-Ring): Run or roll in a circular pattern to avoid the following thunderbolts. Sprinting around the arena is an option, but be mindful of potential follow-up attacks.
- If you get stunned or rooted by any attack, repeatedly press the button prompt to break free quickly. Minimize getting hit to avoid taking significant damage.
- Consider using Amulet Enchantments that can help mitigate damage or provide buffs.
