With God of War: Ragnarok just around the corner, it's likely some of you reading have booted up God of War (2018) to get the story fresh in your mind for the coming sequel. If you're a bit of a completionist, that means coming up against Valkyrie Queen Sigrun, the game's notoriously tough optional boss fight that is the leading cause of property damage in many a God of War fan's home.
It isn't that tough of a boss fight for some though, so if you feel like making yourself feel inadequate, you can check out Redditor AhmedRoasko's video of themselves taking down Sigrun in just 13 seconds on Give Me God Of War difficulty (thanks GamesRadar). The fight starts out as normal, before they pull of a series of tricks and abilities and absolutely melt Sigrun's health bar down to nothing with the Blades of Chaos.
AhmedRoasko credits a God of War YouTuber called Kaown for teaching them how to do the trick, and even explains what armor they're using in the Reddit thread if you want to try and recreate the fight. For starters, you'll need the Zeus Armor that comes with the Glass Ballista ability. This massively increases Kratos' damage, but also increases the damage he receives. Then, you'll need the Talisman of the Realms to slow down time and the Heart of Vanaheim and Bestla's Frozen Shard enchantments to boost Kratos' power even more.
Top it all off with the Grips of the Forgotten Flame for the Blades of Chaos and there you have a build fit to take down any Valkyrie in your path. All you have to do if make sure you don't get hit, otherwise it'll be your health bar drained in seconds, not Sigrun's.
With this build, you might actually be able to down Sigrun before God of War: Ragnarok launches on November 9 next week. If you want to know what we think of the game before you buy, you can read our review here.
