Dude has beaten me so much that I think I have a swollen face In real life. Thanks for the guide
Anytime 👍
Who else is doing like 100 or 200 attempts on these berserkers each? Like an hour or two to defeat. Gotta learn all those move sets, interrupts and combos. So hard! Thanks for video
Memorization is key for sure - best of luck - appreciate you commenting and watching the video.
An hour or two to defeat them ?
Hey, ya’ll……we got somebody new in line.
Try 6-8 hours to days for some of them on GMGOW difficulty 😅
everything is below 20 minutes for me including gna. you have to be very aggressive
@@picanha694 then u pro
no i am not, i learned that most berserkers have similar patterns and you have to be aggressive at parrying and building up the stun meter to kill them.@@darkmans666
You missed the biggest trick of all which is to use spear siphon and use the spear hits/spear explosion to max out his stun meter. Also, that big green puddle can be interrupted by rage fury, or any runic attack so you don't have to roll away from those.
Thanks! I'll remember the Runic Trick during my NG+ Playthrough! Appreciate you!
Really good idea to slow it down, brilliant video 👍
Thanks 👍 yeah I used to study music and we always started super slow in the beginning to learn the set. It helps.
Damn I didn’t know you could destroy the big elemental ball he summons. Thank you for sharing! ❤
No problem! Glad there was something in the guide that helped!
So a few technical things important here.
1) The big area poison attack. U always break that with rage. I noticed you have a lot of rage so trying not to use it and keep it for that attack.
2) using Alfheim set , black bear pauldron and bracer + belt of radiance will give you A LOT of damage. Because when you last second evade you do Bifrost damage and you have realm shift meaning time to grab a health stone or punish his attack and with Alfheim strike you next attack will deal more damage.
3) When he goes into the air and throws the fireballs or frost rain you CAN NOT bring him down just avoid the attack.
4) you can't stagger him when he has that little white icon next to his health bar. You should punish every attack but not use runic attacks. He has runic armour the only way to stagger him is by using rage which I highly advise against see 1) for explanation.
5) ALWAYS try to stay as close to him as possible if an attack is meant to be from far away he'll move the closer you are the more damage you can do and break attacks
6) Blue ring attacks are unparryable, unlockable, undodgeable always break them that's why I recommend staying close.
That's the juice of what I think it's important to know when going into the fight.
Thanks for the detailed breakdown of the fight, especially those skewed parry timing aoe attacks and how to bring him down pre raged attack. I'm still only up to getting him to about half health and naturally success can only come from learning every move and how to evade because the rng varies drastically for this boss and you have to stay healthy for far longer than any other berserker battle... which is why we love these games, cheers for now
Appreciate the kind words my friend 🙏
By far the best guide on yt for Berserker King in GoW Ragnarök. Big-big thanks!!❤
Appreciate that 👍 thank you
@@oxfordking And watched all of your guides, ABSOLUTE TOP! Far easier would have been if I find your channel before struggling with them (on easiest level for 2 hours with mini-boss checkpoints, OMG😁). So thanks again, super useful, informative, easy to understand and usable stuff, that's what I needed. ❤
Great video! For some reason the way you break down these helps me a bunch. I used your GNA video as well.
Ps- gna is awful. I don’t think I have ever struggled with a boss like her. It took me way longer than I care to admit.
Thanks man, appreciate the kind words - yeah Gna is a pain; Sigrun in GoW 2018 is even worse. Glad you dig this style of boss guides.
I remember Sigrun being ridiculous but GNA has this spin move with her wings that i have a really hard time predicting. When she does the red circle vs not required such quick reflexes.
Good news is I finally got her and I’m now onto the king which your video is helping with.
Thanks again!
I’m gonna check out your channel and see if you do any dark souls type boss vids. Those are my normal game style.
Thank you Oxford King for your tips and tricks! I've been eager and too much in a hurry to beat the Ultimate boss in God Of War Ragnarok. I'm working on my timing and evasion. You have taught me to take my time. Again, thank you!
No problem 👍 Glad this helped!!
In terms of interrupting his aerial attacks,. I dont think its about timing, its about his moves
Certain moves are not meant to be interrupted, meaning you cant stop him from these, but some you can
For example i think his “in air elemental summoning” attack and “fire ball from the air” attacks cant be interrupted
But the one where he clapped, blinding and damaging you,. with huge AOE, that one can be taken down,. Its the only way anyway, because you cant dodge or block
Great video , best help and best explanation and I saw around 50 vids ….
Appreciate that - thank you
Brilliant breakdown, it's helped massively, getting me closer to defeating him. It's that attack at 6.31 that kills me every time, can't time the parry and I have onslaught shield, parry shield is not levelled.
Nice, glad this is helpful. Good luck 🎉👍
Thanks man for a complete breakdown video I definitely needed to see this because I've been having trouble beating the berserker king because every time I think I have him figured out he'll do something totally different than what I'm thinking what's coming next
Nice 👍 You're very welcome. Glad this guide helped out!
the thing which you have got wrong is the axe attack while he is in air,you cannot stop all his attacks with the axe while he is in air,it is a different attack which is a bit delayed so that you can successfully get that axe attack in time,otherwise that attack can blind you.Additionally,it was also the part of the bifrost berserker's moveset that you find in niflheim,i guess her name was skothjendi
4:43 yes you can pull him down, I’ve done it a few times. Just frost the axe and throw it at him it works on pretty much every air attack he has
This is less stressful and easier than Gna
Thanks for the tips on the king berserker, man that Mf is hard and I havent even got to Gna yet , great tutorial hopefully I can beat these two final bosses. 😢😢😢😅😅😂👍🏿
Anytime; thanks for watching and commenting - hopefully I have more guides you're looking for on God of War to help out.
Frozen axe hit can take king down from sky to ground.
I think we can bring down Hrólf when he is on its way to pull off the Bifröst vengi in the sky even after the red ring signal (it works to me, but not other Vengi of other elements, but I do see some players bring down Hrólf when it uses Isa (ice) vengi or Eldir (fire) vengi).
Great video in breaking down and explain the Hrólf’s moveset and how to react with them. Many other “How to beat” videos are seemingly beating the bosses without actually narrating what they are actually doing in each segment.
Yeah I think I remember taking him down on my second playthrough. This video was my first playthrough. Appreciate your advice and comment 👍 Also thank you for the kind words on the Guide. I noticed other videos never really explained these fights play by play thoroughly so I decided to change that approach.
I’m doing this on gmgow and he’s harder, for me, than any soulsbourne sekiro boss. I’ve beaten them all, but don’t know what to do with this one. What I can’t deal with is the AI tracking your every vulnerability, knowing that your shields about to break, knowing you’re about to shield slam to cleanse bifrost, knowing that you don’t have a weapon you can throw in your hand etc and taking every possible step to make things impossible for you. Plus I’ve got bifrost storms going, emptying 6 runic attacks into him, plus normal and I’m lucky if I get more than one bar off him. The worst thing though is that he’s open, standing still, no red or yellow rings so I hit him with an L1 and he arbitrarily takes half my health with a red ring attack, right in the middle of a simple L1 animation that’s just ridiculous, impossible to defend against . Other times he’ll throw an ice ball right in my face giving me no opportunity to avoid it. Souls games hits could feel random or chaotic but, never arbitrary. The boss would be hard enough if it was fair. No need for getting arbitrarily, unavoidably sodomized without any warning, in the middle a simple animation. There are laws against that kind of thing.
I feel you 100% Hang out in our god of war streams if you can. I started another character on gmgow
Regarding bringing berserkers down from aerial attacks: There's an attack where they say bifrost vengi. You have to hear or read this, there's no way to tell from the body. Only that can be brought down with an axe or spear ranged hit otherwise there's nowhere to dodge. You'll get hit with bifrost. In other attacks you cant bring them down no matter what stage of the animation they are at, except one cool hack you need to know: You can bring them down by throwing a frosted axe (hold ∆) in occasions where a normal axe throw wont. Similarly, if your spears are buried in him then you can detonate them while he's in the air, that sometimes staggers them from the air. Credit goes to akhtafasu!
Someone told me that you have to frost your axe and throw it at him if you wanna knock him out of the air.
Really like how u did this video brother. And I’ve watched countless at this point. 😭U got a new sub✊🏼
Thank you so much 🙏 Appreciate the kind words and support 👍
Don't forget to keep your axe frosty it will do a lot of damage, hold triangle
🥶
6:01 I literally just knocked him down right after the red circle disappeared, using charged up L2+R2 with the Leviathan axe, and it did knock him down. His AoE still got through but it seemed like the damage was a lot less compared to if you didn’t knock him down/dodge in time
Nice 👍 Thanks for sharing with us!
Definitely helped a lot. Thanks man. Great instructions and technique. Thank you.
Awesome glad to hear it! I'm trying to find time for the other fights as well - I like this format as it works best for to explain what I went through in real time with you guys.
@@oxfordking yeah that would be helpful. The frame by frame breakdown works wonders. Having an accompanying visual to go along with a verbal explanation really helps.
@@jonarvaez8232 Ok cool - glad this style works out. Thanks!
This game is sooo unnecessarily hard. Thor, Heimdal and Odin are easier than a the King and the GNA? GTFOH
Gna was rough. The Poison Berserker I hated the most.
@@oxfordking What an awful fight. I hated the debuff. Still hate the 3 on 1 more though.
@@sepulcher8263 The Sisters fight was giving you troubles? Yeah that one and the Poison Berserker Fight.. those two are rough. Anything with adds is rough.
Optional post game bosses are hard? Oh noooo
I understand the frustration that comes with difficult games, it’s only natural. However, these bosses are explicitly designed to be rather difficult compared to story bosses; imagine if Thor was so hard to beat that players got stuck in the story? It simply doesn’t make sense in terms of game design
Think of it this way:
If this is really "Story/Easy Mode" as some of you say.....
Why even bother trying to dodge and parry every "single" attack moves this boss does at all,
when you could just "Brute force" your way like how you did on every boss you "seem" to have defeated on "EASY/STORY" mode?
Mike let it go haha I saw his channel. Just ignore this dude.
Thanks man this will help! Now let me get my platinum. Only remaining is Beserker king and Gna 😬
Check out my Gna Guide if you haven't yet - sure hope it helps you!
@@oxfordking done already - your videos are very helpful. Thanks mate 👍🏻
@@veerannajakkula Cool! Glad they helped!
I’ve noticed a few people may think Ox is playing on give me a story. He ain’t! I get you probably don’t wanna take my word for it, so check out his VODS or swing by the streams for some banter! You’ll see. He was on give me no mercy during these battles and is now playing give me god of war. 💪
It doesn't matter king berserker is the same on each difficulty, except in NG+
I needed this guide I nearly beat him I had little bit a health but same time he rise air attack kills me I think it was like a double ko both of us 😭
Nice - hope you're able to get something out of it. I also made another Berserker King Guide for NG+ as well.
The guy has beaten me blue black, I am tired
Great guide as always Ox!
Thanks Vee 👍
😮 !!! ????
👍👍👍👍👍👍
I dont know why, but he was harder to beat than the Valkerie at the end of the game....
Amazing guide!!!
👌
Dude, I got his life down to 2-3 blocks everytime it’s so frustrating
Dang.. sorry to hear this and yes these fights are so frustrating - I'm about to fight this guy for the first time on GWGOW (this guide was on Give Me No Mercy). Going to be brutal - I'll end up streaming it too in case you want to stop by and watch me die 100 times haha.
@@oxfordking I will !
@@bayu585 Cool! I just completed Crisis Core Final Fantasy yesterday so we're back over to God of War - not sure when the next stream will be.
Amazing explanation dude and tips but gosh I am having nothing but trouble defeating king Hrolf. Need help on what is the best setup to use
I ended up beating him again on Give Me God of War using Lunda's Chest and Dragon Waist and Dragon Gauntlets. The Live Vod is on the Live Stream Tab. Check the last GoW stream I did. He's in that stream.
Nice bro 👌
👌
You or the woman can knock him down with attacks, she can use arrows to do it I found to knock him down.
Yup I confirmed this later in the video
Arrows don’t knock em outta the air on higher difficulties
I literally can’t beat him I’m currently 4 hours tryna beat him
Dang... this was how I was with the Gna fight. Took me 4.5 hours.
That's because this guy has it on give me story mode trying to fool people. 🤣😂
@@dionnelever85 Who me? Give Me No Mercy! And Now Give Me God of War on the 2nd Playthru.
@@dionnelever85 If this was really "story mode" as you think you say, the boss would not be able to do so many Different Skillsets, the aggressiveness on the attacks and dashes....and you didn't see him get damaged because he was parrying, dodging and shield strike staggering at the right moments.
Could you list which armour and runes etc you used? At least the armour. Whatever you think is most important. Thanks. Great video. Gonna try some of these tips today. Thought this platinum was gonna be easy lol I only have GNA, this guy and 3 more of the Helheim challenges left to Plat 😊
Ah yes that's actually a great video idea. I may get to that over the weekend. Yeah you're so close to plat 👍
@@oxfordking awesome, I’ll look forward to that then. Thanks alot 👍
Nice explanation. This dude is the last thing before platinum. Was hoping there was a cheese… After doing this a few more times on Balanced i share the sentiment that you are doing this on Easy or Story. He has so many one-tap attacks but you were losing 10% health. His attacks never take less than 50% of Kratos’ health with all level 9 gear.
I have gear on that does 40% less damage. I'm level 9 gear + Give Me No Mercy. Go check my Live Tab for proof. I'm currently doing a 2nd run on Give me God of War. You guys crack me up 🤣 We don't play on easy mode here.
Check 0:24
On How much dmg he took from a single attack.
10%? and he is also wearing lvl9 gears too
You can only knock him out of the air when he does the bifrost attack which is an unblockable aoe
Got it thank you 👍
1:40 how do you do those attacks 😊
Light Runic Spear Attack - forgot the name of it
Shew. This guy is kicking my ass. Every attempt I get a little closer 🤣
My timing sucks and I always end up hitting the wrong button at some point and throw off my groove . Every mistake is costly aF in this fight, especially failing to stop that bifrost explosion attack in time lol
yeah there were so many times on stream where I would just restart the fight if I messed up even once.
@@oxfordking yeah I've done that plenty. Don't bother using revive cuz I barely knocked his health down lol or just restart checkpoint
Keep six spears in him at all times I used these to knock him out of the air which works 8 times out of ten. Instead of just rage I use the one that stops attacks and gives you health. This works well with some of the moves that’s hard to dodge. In the end it’s all about patience you can’t rush him or get greedy with your hits.
@@kerronandrewsvisualstoryte7503 Nice strat 👍 Thanks for sharing
For me in my opinion this boss is easy once you memorize his moveset and all the other stuff but the reason why I keep dying because of him when I got him to really low health was because of the part where he does a elemental attack on your face well because pf that I keep dying and I noticed from this video that you can parry him but the downside of me is that I dont know how to parry good so I trained and I got better at parrying so I will be fighting him the next day and I will post a comment showing that I either win or lose.
Ok cool! Yeah he is easier has time goes on but the Poison Move will get ya.
I gust got to the king he is hard but i use the flame whiplash and storm of bifrost
Did you win?
@@oxfordking after awhile yes I was one shot when I killed him
@@oxfordking sorry for the delay of answering
@@Eminem_fan56 All good 👍
Thanks! This really helped, and was a lot more useful than those “check me out one-shotting Berserker King after 700+ hours of game time and 5 NG+ runs” videos. Which are cool in their own right 🫡 but not particularly helpful LOL!
Sorry forgot to ask - how did you get your health charged up at 12:47
Valor (Spartan Rage)
@@oxfordking finally got my Platinum! Thanks to you 🫡
I dont get it.. i got best ending on sekiro, but cant do god of war king berserker.
I feel ya on the Sekiro comparison
Do you have to complete the game to be able to fight the king? I’ve killed 11 of 12 berserkers
Yeah - the 12th (the king) is after you beat the game. Great Question!
His health bar is purple for me….
Would help if the shields actually blocked. This game is fucking bullshit! I'm trying to follow you step by step but the shield doesn't do what it's supposed to do.
So in my 2nd Playthrough I ended up switching ( and loving) the Guardian Shield. Try that one out. Also, if you miss time your Parry, your guard is broken leaving you vulnerable for a hit from the Boss (or any enemy). To mitigate this, I use Valor right when Im about to get hit. Valor, when used at the right time, Heals you AND prevents from taking damage. I hope this helps and yes I completely understand your frustration... trust me. I was just as pissed off. This guide you see here was not my first and only attempt. I leave all of my LIVE VODS up on the LIVE tab as proof. We are on the 2nd Playthrough now (Give Me God of War). I'm about to stream Callisto Protocol but once Im done with that game Im going right back to GoW to finish up. Swing by if you can.
I'm actually really starting to believe these youtubers are doing it on easy mode cause there's no fucking way. How's about you show us the real difficulty you are doing it on cause I really don't think you have it on normal or hard. For one he does 3 back to back red attacks for me straight off the bat not giving me much chance to perry or get out of the way. You seem to be able to stand still long enough to even get a hit on him or change your weapon which I don't.
Watch my VODs - I promise you I am on Give Me No Mercy here and I'm actually streaming my 2nd Playthrough on Give Me God Of War. Proof is in the Live stream tab. And yes these fights were all a pain in the ass that took me hours to take down. You'll see.
I'm on give me balance and I'm get smacked. I think I just suck
I think you're awesome 👍 You'll get it down soon
This boss fight in give me god of war difficulty is literally annoying me
I just took him down in my live stream last night on GMGOW. Check it out if you time.
@@oxfordking i literally just beat it like 3 min ago and I was like….FINALLY
@@kingsman5558 Heck Yeah 💪 Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
What about his blue circle aoe attack
I dont see it in my video - was it showcased here? Its been so long since I did this I dont remember the fight. I'm doing a 2nd playthrough on GMGOW so I'm sure I'll stumble across this again but I dont see that move in this video. I'll check again.
Hahahaha! I've just changed it to the easiest difficulty which is what this guy has it on. Trying to fool people! If you are doing it on give me balance or above that then this isn't the video for you! He's literally doing it on the give me story hence why he's able to perry the attacks and stay still long enough without getting his arse handed to him.
Not true.. people in this community know I play on Hard Mode. I invite you to check out my Live Stream VODS on the Live Tab for proof.
Don't bother....This person probably wants some attention.
This fight is annoying does not stop attacking
Yup just have to dance with him and kick his butt!!
@@oxfordking i literally just beat it
@@151Armondo are you serious? Woohoo 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Heck yeah 👍
Dong mic
Lol 😂😂
This fight isn't hard like sigrun it's unfair
Sigrun is definitely harder, I agree.
