The coolest part of the Breath of Thamur runic attack is that the hits are considered 'ranges hits', so it works awesome with range attack buffs and armor.
I love your videos because everytime you explain something you do your best to keep it spoiler free, instead of pointing out what certain item you need from the story to unlock something you make it known it's part of the story without explicitly saying it, it's a small thing but it is greatly appreciated, keep it up with the great content!
Wish you guys would do a “future of the series” type discussion video. There’s so many branches they’ve set up with these games and I def think they will expand the series with characters and stories.
The future of the series is behind locked doors and there's no point in wasting time talking about rumours for the next 3 years or doing interviews with vague responces. But people out there are willing to do that, it's not pragmatic at all imo
@@andray310 fair enough, each to their own, you do you :) (just speaking from a person who did the same for MCU then realised all the hours I watched and listened to never actually happened, so hopes and dreams were wasted hours, they made me get hyped up for disappointment, makes me realise those kind of people only do it for RUclips money and doesn't benefit me at all, sorry to sound sour)
@@MangoJuce berserkers are still unfazed 90% of the time and will carry any attack no problem more other than not resulting in a game over because of an unblockable I couldn't dodge or a shield attack I couldn't interrupt cause my time runed out before the runic was over.
@@skywarp1216 you're wrong, half wrong i should say, if they have a little shield next to their healthbar it means you can't stun them with runics, this happens after you use 2 runics But after that goes away after 10 seconds, you can clap them again by spamming runic attacks
I just played/finished 2018 (4th time) after finishing GOWR, and it’s INSANE how nerfed runics are in this sequel. 2018 actually felt like the sequel with how refined and fun the combat is. GOWR changed things, and not in a good way imo.
so you literally want a combat system that rewards you for spamming attacks that require no skill. op runics made encounters and boss fights rinse and repeat hels touch and glaive storm. Sigrun was the worst example of this. This game allows you to rly develop ur sense of fighting style
I do think the combat in 2018 was more refined and more fun….plus the menu system wasn’t a complete nonsensical joke. Just my opinion, but 2018 was a better game in many respects
2018 combat felt like you are playing world of war craft or sth Ragnarok actually feels closer to what God of war is relying on your actual combat skill and reflexes and gameplaning
I loved the "Helios Flare" Light runic attack for the Blades Of Chaos because it was like those Street Fighter games where the have the "Hadouken" move which I think is a Street Fighter Reference in the game.
For me it's Leviathan axe light runic attack: wrath of the frost ancient Leviathan axe heavy runic attack: breath of thamur Blades of chaos light runic attack: cyclone of chaos Blades of chaos heavy runic attack: Meteoric slam
I'm at the end game ready for ragnorok yet I only have one light attack for the axe idk why😂 when you said axe light attacks were hard to miss I was like what???
Fun fact: Kratos used to be able to spam attacks like Tartarus Rage and Rampage of the Furies, but now that he's older and weaker, he relies on runes with time limits to do them.
I literally beat the game, reached high percentages on the map completions (even 100% musplheim) yet I couldnt find another fucking light axe runic attack until recently. I kept that one you got from the first horse boss early on
You should show on the map where each are as I have no idea where the helios one is, for example.. and you breezed through the details and I've already done the mission
I don't know if it's just me but I can't get the upgraded Hades of retribution to work on big bosses. It just sticks them once even if you have it fully upgraded
I 100% the game pretty quickly now I’m just desperately looking for anything I don’t have or haven’t seen. I don’t even get companion dialogue anymore.
Hmm I’m trying to find how a few RUclipsrs used the axe consequently with hits. It was like they were pressing R1,R1, R1 without going into stance. Now seeing that’s not a runic attack I wonder how it’s done. Maybe a cancel or something.
In gow ragnarok is harder to get breath of thamur and meteor shower lol cuz i cant find all of the ravens hehe.. For gow 4 you only need to complete muspleheim trials
I 100% the game but had no idea that some of the runic attacks have a second function (guess I should re-read them all!). Does the second effect happen automatically or do you have to input it?

I’m just realising 2 years after finishing the 1st game that you can do runic attacks 🤦🏻♂️.
@@residentsteve No way.
@@residentstevelol how tf did you beat it then? On easy?
The coolest part of the Breath of Thamur runic attack is that the hits are considered 'ranges hits', so it works awesome with range attack buffs and armor.
The mist of helheim and skadi’s edge are also considered "ranges hits" so it can combo also with buff and armor that increase range attack damage
Does Wrath Of The Frost Ancient also count as a ranged attack?

Kratos' movement during Atlas Eruption looks alot like his movement using the Efreet in Chains of Olympus. Neat.
I thought it was refrencing the magic he received from atlas in god of war 2
I miss Hyperion Slam the most.
Yeah that's a great runic attack.
Same lol all the runics we got though are pretty awesome
Its unlockable in a skill tree
@@ShadowOfHorizonV2 “slam” not charge
@Gandalf easily could nerf it some. I love the attack animation more than anything.

Arkham knight made me search for all of riddler’s trophies… now GOW is gonna make me search for all the ravens
Compared to arkham knight, destroying all ravens is much more easier
atleast it just takes one(or a couple at max) axe throws, riddler trophies took longer and some were even tricky to get
I absolutely love how runics don't stunn by default and also leaving you completely open on any incoming attacks
You just have to use them correctly

U can actually mash triangle for the artillery runic attack as its raining to get a much more better damage
holy shit I never realised
Just press triangle once and the new ones will explode too
Feels like all the runic attacks was nerfed in ragnarok
To quote a wise man: "That's Fimbulwinter for ya".
for the better imo. runic spamming was op in 2018
They should be, you have 3 weapons and they made old runic attacks normal moves(albeit nerfed)
@@caciquerojasfeels just like that
You should make a fun video about the locations of Tyr post game. He is hidden in all the realms.
all?? i only saw him in muepelheim and vanaheim after freeing him..
@@rayed6011 He is in the lake of nine in Midgaard on like a small island on the frozen lake.

I’m 15 hours through the game and I haven’t come across a single heavy runic attack for any weapons 💀
They took out my favorite runic attack for the blades of Chaos
Damn This was so incredibly useful, Thanks
Downloading to my Playlist so I don't miss it. I need to find them all after I'm done Callisto
Artillery of the ancients is coolest..raining down spears is so sick
But somehow it's missable, and apparently you will not be able to get it never more
In your opinion, what are the best runic attacks (light and heavy) for each weapon?
depends on your build and playstyle thats what makes this game combat so good
For me it's
Leviathan axe light runic attack: wrath of the frost ancient
Leviathan axe heavy runic attack: breath of thamur
Blades of chaos light runic attack: cyclone of chaos
Blades of chaos heavy runic attack: Meteoric slam
I hope they introduce some new ones in Ng+
agree. also i hope they add bare handed skill tree in ng+
Prometheus flame and utgard strike need to come back
Thanks JorRaptor for this videos!! ❤️
Honestly, just check the check-list in the map menu. You can see how many you left behind.
I wish they would have brought all the runic attacks from the first game back...
God Damn it I'm going to have to backtrack and retrace my steps.
I'm at the end game ready for ragnorok yet I only have one light attack for the axe idk why😂 when you said axe light attacks were hard to miss I was like what???
I wish they would had kept the shield style of fighting in gowr along with a few blade attacks
4:18 I didn't know you can do that!.. I already got platinum of the game 😂😭
What are the BEST ones?
Fun fact: Kratos used to be able to spam attacks like Tartarus Rage and Rampage of the Furies, but now that he's older and weaker, he relies on runes with time limits to do them.
Genuinely impossible to find them in Ragnarok you've literally got to be Sherlock Holmes to find these in a first playthrough
Thanks for this. You guys are the best
Thank you❤❤
Somehow I manage to go through the entire game missing all of the axe light runic attacks, except for winters bite of course.
Me too 😂 I don’t know how I did it
same
Thx a lot man🙏🙏
Damnit. I missed most of it and now too lazy to return
I literally beat the game, reached high percentages on the map completions (even 100% musplheim) yet I couldnt find another fucking light axe runic attack until recently. I kept that one you got from the first horse boss early on
6:03 *CYCLON (hurricane) of Chaos*
i remember this attack from CHAIN OF OLYMPUS
You should show on the map where each are as I have no idea where the helios one is, for example.. and you breezed through the details and I've already done the mission
i miss the hyperion slam and prometheaus flame from the previous game
You can do it just as a regular
I don't know if it's just me but I can't get the upgraded Hades of retribution to work on big bosses. It just sticks them once even if you have it fully upgraded
How do you upgrade it
big body bans
I really miss The Prometheus Flame
Me too
I miss Strike of the Utgard/Thiazi’s Talon 😢 perfectly balanced moves that were great for close quarters and ranged enemies
The beam one I like to call the kame hame ha
Next video maybe best enchantments?
I want to get the PS five but I played the game before
I 100% the game pretty quickly now I’m just desperately looking for anything I don’t have or haven’t seen. I don’t even get companion dialogue anymore.
Breath of Thamur melts Berzerkers bar down pretty quick.
Why are there no guides to find the ones in Valhalla?
Runic attack at the beginning of video how u use additional three attacks with blades?
Wishing for the new game plus game if they put all the runic attacks of 2018 and another dlc
I started watching this video then realized I already 100% the game
And?
@@mysterious___1 you clearly don't understand the concept of 100%, I both have all of them and have nothing to use them on if not
@@kingalfa1878 I’m not even talking about that ya donut. I was wondering if you wanted a trophy or something.
@@mysterious___1 already got it but if u giving out more I'm in
No but what’s the point of your comment? You didn’t add anything to the video or give any critical oversight.
They look great.
20 hours and i still havent found a heavy im going on the hunt
Can these be randomized between the different locations? I’ve been everywhere and still only have winters bite for a light runic attack
Hmm I’m trying to find how a few RUclipsrs used the axe consequently with hits. It was like they were pressing R1,R1, R1 without going into stance. Now seeing that’s not a runic attack I wonder how it’s done. Maybe a cancel or something.
What are u asking? What do u mean “used axe consequently”
i think there is a pattern for the blades of chaos the bigger the explosion the more powerful the runic damage
So uhh I’m like almost done with the story and I’m trying to get skadies edge and the chest looks like it’s already been search anyone might know why?
Either a glitch or you had it and don't use it anymore, check your inventory
I was like where are all the heavy runic attacks in the early game
Can you go back to chests that you missed like the ones u get from first time visits
In gow ragnarok is harder to get breath of thamur and meteor shower lol cuz i cant find all of the ravens hehe..
For gow 4 you only need to complete muspleheim trials
I missed the hels touch one i was searching everywhere
I 100% the game but had no idea that some of the runic attacks have a second function (guess I should re-read them all!). Does the second effect happen automatically or do you have to input it?
You have to input it
Read it in the runic attack description
Depends on the upgrade
I can’t believe i missed all the light attacks and heavy for axes
There's also a secret runic attack called Athenas spank. Found in Kratos' weed jar.
you mean panic attack right? lol
No this is fake
@@jamesgodd6133 yea its a weed joke my guy
@@jamesgodd6133 obviously.
gah i spent forever in that "honour of the fallen" area but never figured it out.
I’m just bummed that none of them really do any damage this time around
I hate the fact that breath of thamur doesn’t transfer over to NG+ now I got to kill a bunch more ravens
I miss a runic attack for the axe called tyr's revenge
Skadis edge was a regular move in gow 2018
I'm on my 2nd play thru, but I haven't got Artillery if the Ancients yet...WHAT AM I MISSING??
Where in Helios flare legendary chest you should have shown location
I didn’t know there was Huldra charge after killing ogres and I left it behind can I still get it?
To every woman and man in chat you are beautiful just the way you are have a nice day everyone
Love mountain splitter
ohh boy i miss the river of knives
Its the same as holding r1
“this video should only contain spoilers for the first 7-8 hours of the game”
hmmm… 16 hours in, maybe i should avoid this video
*Man why we gotta search for attacks we've gotten before*
*Instead previous runic attacks should've been craftable while we search for new ones*
How do I get the second slam for the Ivaldis Anvil I upgraded it to level 3 but I don’t get it
Press RT again...
Jorraptor thank for have a giude now I have idilvl anvil!
I got artillery of the ancients from a chest in svartalfheim though?
Can’t understand a thing
I miss the rage of the Titans
i love the helios flare
I literally have everything finished except those damn ravens lol I gave up on some of the ravens lol that “New Game plus” is gonna be the bees knees
Well, I missed the artillery of the ancients, that sucks
1:06 I've opened this chest but I don't have it?
How did i manage to play the ENTIRE game and get almost 100% in each realm, and only find the first lighr runic attack for the axe?😂
It won’t let me go into the southern wilds it’s blocked off with some red wood
I missed the tame the beast chest💀 is there any way i can get it again?
Yeah, you just have to go back to helheim and get it
why is everyone sleeping on atlas eruption
Doesn't apply much effect or do insane damage, it's fine but kinda mid
@@04cassius-jake what do you use, I mainly used meteoric slam after, if you have high runic and cooldown stat then it is decent and looks the best
