God of War Ragnarok: How to Beat Travellers (2024)

FAQs

How do you beat the traveler in God of War Ragnarok? ›

The most effective way to defeat the Hel-Traveler is with your Blades of Chaos. Not only can you inflict burn damage, but their heavy attacks also deal quick significant damage, especially considering that their armor deflects most of your melee combat.

Travellers are basically minibosses, and should be treated as such. They require patience and concentration if you're to best them. If nothing else, just make sure that you don't get hit by the unblockables, and you'll be on the right track. Remember to attack only a few times before backing off, and repeat.

The other trick up a Traveller's sleeve is the magical blast that happens after they hold a skull aloft. To stop this inescapable shockwave, you need to hit the skull with a ranged attack — a good throw of your axe will get it done, but you'll have to be quick.

God of War Ragnarok secret endings and post-credits scenes

If you speak to Lunda, who now runs the Dwarves' forges, she'll tell you they're saying goodbye to Brok in Svartalfheim. That will start the Favor, A Viking Funeral, which leads you initially to Raeb's Tavern and then Sverd Sands for the funeral proper.

1 Gna, The Valkyrie Queen

Gna presents possibly the hardest challenge in God of War: Ragnarok and players will need to bring their a-game to this boss battle, considering it is only unlocked after the main game's story.

Birgir is a Midgardian Mortal who fought alongside the Vanir Gods. He was a former Traveler before he saw the lies behind Odin's path and chose to side with Vanaheim, causing other Travelers to label him a heretic.

There will be a Yellow Circle when an enemy attacks. These attacks can be parried. Press LB once you see them (the timing varies depending on enemy), and you can counter them easily. Attacks with a red circle cannot be countered and you NEED to dodge.

Brok's Funeral

Sindri is last seen at his brother's funeral where he says a tearful goodbye to Brok. Despite tolerating Kratos' presence at the funeral, Sindri rejects his condolences and is last seen completely dejected before disappearing into the Realm Between Realms.

So many players felt similarly frustrated, and gaming websites even posted guides on whether or not you could turn off these hints. Unfortunately, you can't. Everyone who played through this action-adventure game is forced to endure unsolicited nudges from Atreus telling you exactly how to progress.

Near the end, when Atreus is about leave for his journey, Angrboda gifts him a marble --her marble-- so that in the future, he will be able to find her and visit her during his journey. The two embrace, and she and Kratos watches as Atreus, now having fully accepted his identity as Loki, leaves.

How do you beat the stranger in God of War Ragnarok? ›

Press L1 about a second after The Stranger leaves the ground - this should be about the right timing to parry his attack - then follow up with an R2 combo to knock him into the air and deal heavy damage. His zigzag attack is more difficult to parry because it's harder to track with your eyes.

Focus on dodging and deflecting projectiles, and let your companion pepper them with arrows when they are floating in the air or teleport close for an attack. It may be harder to fill his stun meter when he's being evasive, so don't worry too much about it.
