![]() ![]() Thor performs two quick right hooks before winding up a heavy backhand that can knock Kratos backward. ![]() It is also possible to dodge the punch first before parrying the follow-up kick. This attack is heavily telegraphed, so react to Thor's movements and evade or parry the incoming punch. Thor rears his left arm back before lunging forward to punch Kratos, following his attack with a sturdy kick. These will also leave small lightning fields where they hit so watch where you're going (or dodging)! Thor Attack Patterns (First Encounter) First Phase Punch and Kick Combo Depending on the difficulty, this will quickly drain your health so don't get caught off guard! Lightning Strikes Continuously on Third PhaseÄuring the third and final phase, lightning will continuosly strike randomly in the arena. When Thor is down to about a third of his health, there will be a quick time event where you need to mash the circle button. Prepare to Mash Circle Before the Third Phase Every time he does this, be prepared to dodge at the end as it is always followed by an unblockable Mjolnir attack. Thor Moves Faster While ElectrifiedĪt the start of the second phase, Thor will be electrified and will start using Mjolnir to quickly move sideways. When the rings appear, quickly run at him and perform a Shield Strike to interrupt this attack. Thor also has a double blue ring attack where he charges up and releases an unblockable shockwave across the entire arena, dealing heavy damage. If you got caught, just quickly spam L1! His tackle-grab won't give you this kind of luxury, though, so dodge to the sides when you see him charging at you with a red ring! Interrupt His Shockwave Attack You can avoid damage from Thor's short-ranged grab by pressing L1 after the on-screen prompt. If you're using the Dauntless Shield, you can also use its Shield Strike to interrupt any attack after a parry! Quickly Press L1 When You're Grabbed Parrying Thor's barehand and hammer combos as soon as you can allows you to stop them abruptly and inflict Stun damage. Memorize the timing of Thor's attacks and time your dodges/parries right. He also has block-breaking attacks (yellow ring) that you can parry so simply blocking won't get you far. Most of Thor's attacks are unblockable (red ring) so prepare to dodge a lot during the entire fight. Lightning strikes continuously on third phase Second Encounter Thor (Second Encounter) Tips and Strategies In addition, running toward Thor has a high chance of baiting out one of his yellow ring attacks, providing you with an easy parry. Thor tends to disengage or counterattack after getting hit two to three times, so prepare to dodge, block, or parry any incoming attacks after taking advantage of an opening. However, since it's a resource-based ability, try to save it for low-health situations or when close to finishing off one of Thor's phases. Spartan Rage is an incredibly potent ability when fighting against Thor, as it inflicts massive damage and restores Kratos' health with every hit. Remember to Imbue your Leviathan Axe with Frost Awaken throughout the fight against Thor to improve your damage output and make it easier to build up his stun meter. Doing this provides you with healing and a window of opportunity to deal plenty of damage toward the God of Lightning. Remember that you can stagger Thor by triggering Healthstones while being right next to him. While Thor mainly swaps to his fists when his hammer isn't in its sheath, remain cautious while fighting him as the God of Lightning can still surprise you with sudden grabs and unblockable ground pounds. Starting from the second phase, Thor starts switching between fist and hammer attacks throughout the fight. Thor Swaps Between Fist and Hammer Attacks However, try to keep Thor away from the pillars as he can destroy them if the structures end up in his attacks' path. Remember to use the pillars around the second phase's arena, as they act as one-time weapons that deal heavy damage to Thor and knock him backward. Parrying Thor's normal and yellow ring attacks in this phase also quickly fills up his stun bar, letting you reach his second phase faster. Prioritize parrying Thor's attacks in this phase until you wear him down enough to retrieve your Leviathan Axe. ![]() At the start of Thor's first phase, Kratos cannot use any of his weapons, only relying on his fists and Guardian Shield. ![]()
