@Kevin Kaslana The reason he didn't take damage is because if you upgrade that runic attack to max he is covered by a wind shield that fully protects him from damage but either way that was still pretty damn cool to see
I just defeated him in GMGOW and it took me 9 minutes on the successful run (and about 5 hours of attempts) and I was 1 hit away from failure as I had used my resurrection stone already. To see that someone can do it without any damage taken is astounding to me.
I won hundred percent feel you bro I just beat it and came to this video to see somebody fighting now and I’m like no damage I can pretty much not get here till like three bars and then I make a random mistake
I lost to king hrolf for several hours, had a tactical retreat and upgraded my armor to near max, just to have a rematch of another several hours of attempts and with some final few health left, finally defeated him
I nearly no damage run'd his ass on my first try, and I was going in with mental memory of the other Berserkers. I died (LPer's curse bullshit) via stupid mistake, then got him on the second attempt.
It's funny, not a single thing any character in ALL of the Norse Realms has done here really compares to Kratos destroying Greece in terms of pure destruction and death.
The valkyries were better yes but I respect the fact that they didn’t just repeat like 90% of games. They made a new version that was very different but still had the same main idea. I’m glad they did it this way and didn’t let the game go stale
Fun Fact, Hrolf Kraki was actually the Danish King. Hrolf was described as a scylding, a member of a legendary Danish royal family. The Nephew of Hrodgar, Grandson Healfdene, and son of King Helgi of Lejre and Queen Yrsa. When his mother was raped and his father is killed by Swedish King Aldys, Hrolf raised an army of 12 Berserkers to wage war to avenge his Parents.
In the God of War timeline, I think Hrolf betrayed Aldis because of this reason and after getting his revenge, became insane because he didn't get the peace he desired and eventually followed Aldis' footsteps.
Brilliant job! I have just started to fight him. Fortunately he is alone, so this fight reminds me of fighting Sigrun, as in learning his moves and patterns and speed up my reactions. It is not frustrating compared to the notorious berserkers, I quite enjoy getting better against him. So, I am on the learning curve but I will get there. Sometimes he still deceits me when delays the swinging of the huge hammer (or whatever it is called) but I manage. I use the realm shift waist as I like making use of the extra time.
Bro imagine when you “R3” Hrólf after beating him, there is a twist where you do a series of QTE when he pulls out Skofnung to counter the axe. Huge missed opportunity in my opinion, would’ve made a callback to the OG games…
With Berserkers; get to at least 300 in Strength with the spear too and you will have a major advantage in beating them. It's a mistake if you fight them without these 2 things unless you are really good.
Unfortunatly this gameplay was not GMGOW because we cannot parry or cancel when he unleashes the green circle and while befire double L1 parry, hrolf release attack fron the ground too. Because i just saw difference's while playing
The ease of which you do this makes my nearly 1.5 hour go at it just now on give me balance a walk in the park. finally managed to do it though, not looking forward to fighting gna though. i look forward to hopefully seeing some build videos in the future or at the very least have them a part of one of the guides similar to when you show off the builds for your destiny videos.
Don't be discouraged. I spent maybe 2 hours on the King and Gna I beat maybe in 3-4 attempts. On give me balance same as you. Maybe it was because I swapped some gear several times to make a build that works for me and got used to it.
Damn. And here I thought my 2 hours of fighting this king on gmgow was alright..amazing parries, I didn’t have the balls to parry his big hammer swings cos that was the one that always kills me 😂
Two hours is nothing on a fight like this. I estimate I took bit more than 5 for me. The three berzerker sisters in Alfheim took more than 10 hours. Possibly closer to 13, but that fight is actually broken. In this one all his moves have proper warnings and reactions that you can do to avoid or counter them. Not so with the Sisters of Illska and Svipdagr the Cold.
Bro, the fuckin' trio of Berserkers took me a half hour to get their moves and coordination down! I didn't even take that long against any of the others - they were all one-and-done.
This guy reminds me to Shao Kahn, the samurai armor style, the hammer, the "BOW TO ME!", the horns... Also there are some moves that look a lot to MK11's Shao
I once got a glitch with the subtitles when beating hrolf, instead of saying "my kingdom-" it said "my kingdom- a curse upon your name". I am still not able to replicate this error but I can certainly say that it's probably cut dialogue.
I’ve been waiting to play this when I really have time to sit down and play for more than an hour or two. If this guy is like the last Valkyrie with a health bar that high omfg I can only imagine how hard this is gonna be 😂
Oh, so all you have to do is time all your parries perfectly... No wonder I can't even make it on Give Me Balance. Would love to know your loadout for this fight!
I always think is u guys playing or A.I. playing against those bosses its amazing hw u guys doing combat,pressing keys this much fast evading fast n without getting any hits as well Nice Play though👍
Damn, I’ll give it to your brother you would make Kratos Himself proud. I beat it on give me got a walk but not half as smoothly as you did. My vid is on my channel lol. 2:56. So Precise. 4:01 - That was straight G lol
I have more than 7 hours and countless deaths. No matter the equipment, I get so much damage and can't parry or dodge all of his attacks. He attacks me even when he sends a massive ball of ice, fire, poison, or AOE type of attack. It's hard for me to evade his hammer and I try to dodge it but my camera gets stuck and he hits numerous times and inflicts massive damage. From his ten Needless to say, I play on Give me story difficulty. Something it's very odd with this boss fight. How do you parry? When do you press L1 for the yellow circle attacks?
I’m very into details and fought this boss before and where is that ground poppers when when Hrolf does the blue circle attack and the first 2 projectiles when he goes up in the air
I find it really odd, thinking about how the new GoW mechanics work, that Kratos doesn't actually get stronger. He just gets more and more blingy swag, that boosts his power. 100% of your power level is calculated by the stats on the armor, not you. Which is kind of odd when you think about it. Most games have the "growth" of the character, be at least PARTIALLY based on internal improvement. But not the new GoW.
I’m impressed that your ability to not use your Owen triangle or your god of war of wrath I had to use mine if I can I like slipped up between moves I’ll have to use it to cancel his moves out and then the Owen triangle just does so much damage and why didn’t you use him and dolls hilt
So who’s harder, this guy or Gna? I’m still early in the postgame and wondering who to go after first (I know where Gna is, but I want to take down all the Asgard remnants first and maybe do all the Muspelheim challenges too)
If I had to choose which is harder, I think it’s this guy, Gna uses a few of the same moves and you get used to it, this guy uses all the beserker moves combined and is unpredictable.
I was surprised I did it maybe on the 10th try or something. It didn’t take many tries and basically killed him after dealing with the triple bastards in alfheim and the bifrost bitch in niflheim
What're you thoughts weapon attachments that slow time when you consume meter, I have the one for the axe and spear at the moment and gice me a 'damage phase" moment with bosses
Just beat this green idiot in NG+, and I LOVE the Flawless Berserker Armour. It doesn’t add any special abilities, but my god does it look good in the dark. Comment if you agree with me
Odd. Cause when pro gamers dodge only 2 inches away, they dont get any damage but when i dodge the whole attack, my life gets chopped in half. This is the fact that disturbs me 🤨
I beat him yesterday but i didn't get the 100% Complete thing. I've fought Gna, got everything in all the realms, but haven't finished certain Ratatasks. Are Ratatasks required???
In 3 hours of trying this asshole, I got him to 1% once... and then got stuck in an animation picking up a healthstone, which was long enough for one of his red glowing orbs to hit me -_- I'm hoping that by complaining here, I'll now beat him, because that often seems to happen.
4:30 That was like some anime stuff. You both just dash past each other and he recieves a massive blow lol
I know right, what was that? Amazing
On my version of the game. That would’ve brought my health all the way down.
That was anime as fuck! The fact he dashed past him and took NO damage from it was sick! Now that is true mastery!
I skipped to that before watching the full video……and it was definitely worth it lol. Final katana to katana anime style 😂

The important thing is you beat him in any means necessary, you don't have to prove bragging rights.
I lost to king hrolf for several hours, had a tactical retreat and upgraded my armor to near max, just to have a rematch of another several hours of attempts and with some final few health left, finally defeated him
Glad I’m not the only one who had been at this for hours…
I nearly no damage run'd his ass on my first try, and I was going in with mental memory of the other Berserkers. I died (LPer's curse bullshit) via stupid mistake, then got him on the second attempt.
Overall I felt the berserkers were less mechanically interesting than the Valkyries were, but I still really enjoyed this fight
(imo) The game overall is a way easier than the last GoW. The valkyries in the last GoW were freaking psychos
This fight isn't hard but he is a damage sponge. I get bored before he is at half health.
@@JoMorem They're still psychos if you play on anything but the easiest difficulty.
That's on you, homie!
The whole game is easier. Remember when the nornir chest required timing and execution?
@@CrownxMe7 oh a 100 percent the whole game is really far easier
"Don't you understand the legacy that thing caries?"
My brother in Christ he's holding the Blades of Chaos.
It's funny, not a single thing any character in ALL of the Norse Realms has done here really compares to Kratos destroying Greece in terms of pure destruction and death.
Tip: Always have a few spears lodged in him in case he flies up in the air and tries to do the bifrost explosion.
Just throw your axe at him haha
@@jbru5288not everyone has good aim and is that quick draupnir is quicker
@@soldierofgod7412You don’t need to have good aim to hit him with the axe
@@whosskies8078 oh I want to fight him again but I already beat the game and I don’t know how people do it fight him again please help
@@soldierofgod7412 You have to beat all of the other berserkers first before you can fight him in new game plus
The valkyries were better yes but I respect the fact that they didn’t just repeat like 90% of games. They made a new version that was very different but still had the same main idea. I’m glad they did it this way and didn’t let the game go stale
I prefer The Berserkers than the Valkyries
I just lost to this boss today, he's tough but you make this look so easy.
4:30 😮 EPIC!!
Anyone else find the sound of a shield parry to be immensely satisfying?
Yes , thats why I love the Guardian shield

@@jorgebersabe293 thanks for the lore
Damn! 😃👏👏👏👏 That's awesome!
Damn I suck. You guys make it look so easy. I've died to this guy probably 50 times. 🤷♂️
I loved this fight! Simply for the amount of parrying I can do!
Glad that you enjoyed the game immensely Eso!
When he charges his big no blocking attack on the ground you can interrupt it with a runic attack instead of double back dodge
Great job 👍
From Head to Brother…what a transition 👍🏻
Hes not what u think. Look up youtuber cookingkratos. He proves mimir is NOT our ally. U wont be dissapointed
Brilliant job!

Damn flawless victory with perfect parrying 🔥
and this fella earned a gold trophy afterwards, that's lucky

At the 4:30 mark how'd you not get hit when you went head to head? Your parrying is ridiculous so elite, like the best I I've seen
Wow man. That’s epic! I am struggling with this boss
This guy reminds me to Shao Kahn, the samurai armor style, the hammer, the "BOW TO ME!", the horns... Also there are some moves that look a lot to MK11's Shao
This is what I imagine Kratos to be like
I am not sure but I guess this is a fight with full ability, skills tree etc. But I gotta say man you used the abilities pretty well in use :).
Outrageous skill and hand-eye coordination. I’ll defeat this boss eventually however likely after triple digit tries.
I love how even when you finish off hrolf
Hrolf is still able to hold off kratos
Just shows how strong he is
Bro your Parry game is on point. Excellent counter moves.
.i cant defeat this opponent and yet this guy take it with no DAMAGE? some are really born to be a Godly gamer.
I once got a glitch with the subtitles when beating hrolf, instead of saying "my kingdom-" it said "my kingdom- a curse upon your name". I am still not able to replicate this error but I can certainly say that it's probably cut dialogue.
5:34 That same line reminds me of Hades in GOW3.
I’ve been waiting to play this when I really have time to sit down and play for more than an hour or two. If this guy is like the last Valkyrie with a health bar that high omfg I can only imagine how hard this is gonna be 😂
Absolutely beutiful gameplay from you. I'm excited to try out your build.
First time i hear kratos calls mimir brother 💪 6:17
4:29 kratos was like “what, i can do it too”
Oh, to be that good at parrying
I’m having such a hard time with this guy. If I could parry like this I could totally get it lol
Oh, so all you have to do is time all your parries perfectly... No wonder I can't even make it on Give Me Balance. Would love to know your loadout for this fight!
4:41 aimed for his groins 😂
Took me 15-20 tries to finally beat him what kept getting me was when he goes into the air launching those 4 projectiles i’m bad at dodging them
Jeasus !!!! Those reflections are insane !!
I always think is u guys playing or A.I. playing against those bosses its amazing hw u guys doing combat,pressing keys this much fast evading fast n without getting any hits as well
Nice Play though👍
There’s something about king hrolf’s final words that gets to me “my kingdom…”
