@damsen978There are 2 types of Golden Athena’s Blades. The Golden Athena’s Blades in New Game is a hidden 6th level. You have to use weapon level modifier codes to get them or save edit to get the “true”Golden Blades. The blades are as weak as level 1 but have all the moves of level 5. The Golden Blades on General Kratos and the NG+ God Armor are just a model swap for the regular blades and as said before me, those blades will represent levels 1-5 with the corresponding flame trail but the model itself will always be the Golden Blades. In GoW 1 the 6th level also exists to get the Golden Athena’s blades and in that game they’re as strong as level 5 blades.
Bro I cried when i saw you do it. I had been stuck on this fucking chamber for a week with all the upgrades and magic and u just do this. You are a legend.
i literally just did this less than five minutes ago. its my first time. feels good! to be a no upgrade run+ loom chamber champion. now i just gotta do Zeus and i will have accomplished something i thought was outta my league. was watching this video for inspiration and it worked although i didn't use any orion's harpoon or whatever it is. also im playing on original ps2 with original oldschool CRT TV and its THE best thing ever. its literally all i have played for the past month! the input lag is less than 1 ms with the crt tv and the wired ps2 controller and parries are godlike easy. Reppin 2007! please notice me senpai!!!
@@TheShark94700 Basically, the fight is so hard that you're not required to beat them. The run itself ends at Ares 1 for that reason, and the Clones are referred to as 'Bonus Credit'.

This part of the game with no checkpoints is the most ridiculous creation and especially on titan mode this you make you rage. I hated the kratos clone battle on god mode on gow 1 but this is getting to that level of frustration.
I remember that there was a discussion on TUGOWU about whether GKPAIN+ was harder than PAIN+. Haven't done either run to comment, but from a glance, you should have the same durability (you take double damage, but you're forced to do the run with MAX health, so it evens out on that front), and collisions should make short work of mob fights in general, at least where applicable. In PAIN+, you have better damage output (outside collisions), which can help for fights where you can't use collisions or ring enemies out.

@@ExtremeGameplays1 Nah It's just developers bullshitting on players by throwing on random enemies in random order with no deep thought behind it. It's not exactly genius to just putting 2 strong enimes and other type of 2 strong enemies together and then finally seasoning it with basic enimes on a tiny rectangle. Capra Demon is when it's done right and this whole section is when it's done horribly wrong.
Honestly, I haven’t done a NUR+ on this game because I have never tried to not upgrade anything. I have beaten the hardest mode on this game, but I’m scared of this challenge. Is it optional to do or just for fun? I’m curious about this
this is what ragnarok combat feels like. Sloggy and annoying. Except in Ragnarok you're constantly playing a watch your back game, so at least you have a good angle here.
I hate this. Every video I see makes it look doable. When I get to the sirens and gorgons. They NEVER NOT EVEN ONCE use their stone stares or blasts. And as soon as I drop my guard they do that BS tail whip.
Yes, currently this IS my favorite fight in the series.
Also i hope you like the alt bg music

Jolilegal already did that
@@shephardburnout3 Also Speed_Gunner
@@adrianshephard22 speed gunnah
I remember my first time getting this area in god of war 2. Game went well for me until this section. I remember it being hard as hell to get through.
GoW 2 is the hardest in NUR difficulty but the clone fight at the end of the first was impossible for me.
Clone fight is optional.
Come to think of it. Even without the translator section, yes, gow2 is the hardest. Also the most fun imo.
@@ExtremeGameplays1 What do you mean about the clone fight being optional ?
@@TheShark94700 Basically, the fight is so hard that you're not required to beat them. The run itself ends at Ares 1 for that reason, and the Clones are referred to as 'Bonus Credit'.
@Damsen I mean in challenge runs. BigVEE (the rulemaker) says so. I believe the same logic should apply to speedruns.
@@hiagain1 in the final fight agaisnt ares kratos is hit with a illusion attack the makes him relive the day where he killed his family

This is a gauntlet. A gauntlet is meant to not give you a checkpoint and you're suppose to learn it.
Now you have to do a No Upgrade Run with the general skin. Enjoy.
Will get to that in some time

wow great job. This was so very hard for me fully upgraded.
legendary like always
Currently playing this on the PSVita and it is much harder than I remember it being on console, probably because the framerate is so bad 😭
This is literally me, playing the game without upgrading because I'm too lazy😭
Throwing corpses are op in titan difficulty
hope the best for you man ❤️🔥

Will do a commentary one day. Yes.

For the gorgons to use the blast you have to false grab it (false grab means grabbing an opponent when they're bot grabbable)
