Introduction To Weapons In GOW Valhalla
The base game GOW Ragnarok had various weapons that players could use during the gameplay.
Similarly, GOW Valhalla introduces some new weapons players can use in their DLC run.
Players can only enjoy these new weapons after completing the base game GOW Ragnarok.
Specifically, the game has many offensive options for players like Weapons, Shields, and Runes.
However, only the new weapons will be discussed in this article as it is the focal point.
Specifically, players can enjoy three weapons in the new GOW DLC and they are:
- Leviathan Axe
- Draupnir Spear
- Blades of Chaos
All Playable Weapons In GOW Valhalla
Kratos wields a few different weapons throughout his journey in the game and these weapons include:
1. Leviathan Axe: The Axe Weapon
The Leviathan axe was introduced during the God of War 2018 and replaced the Blades of Chaos.
In fact, this axe depicts a new Kratos who left his past self behind and was full of rage and hatred.
Also, players of this franchise know that this axe was forged by two dwarves: Sindri and Brok.
In the game, the Leviathan Axe is a one-handed weapon that prioritizes wide swings for dealing damage.
However, it can also be used as a projectile weapon just like in GOW Ragnarok.
Hence, players should use this weapon when they want both defensive and offensive playstyle.
2. Draupnir Spear: The Spear Weapon
The Draupnir Spear was Kratos’s weapon companion alongside the Leviathan Axe in GOW Ragnarok.
In the game, this spear is only introduced later on when Kratos receives Odin’s Ring of Draupnir.
Then, this weapon is forged by the Lady of The Forge after using Kratos’s blood as a reagent.
Also, this weapon was specifically created to defeat Heimdall as it was capable of stunning him.
Therefore, players can use this spear to stun enemies and then rush them in GOW Valhalla.
Hence, players should use the Draupnir Spear if they want to stun and counter enemies.
3. Blades Of Chaos: Blade Weapon
Before the Draupnir Spear and the Leviathan Axe, the Blades of Chaos was Kratos’s signature weapon.
In fact, Kratos has been wielding this weapon since Ares handed it to him and was only replaced during GOW Ragnarok.
However, GOW Valhalla brings this OG weapon back into the game, allowing players to go all out in battle.
Appearance-wise, this dual-wield weapon prioritizes both short-ranged and long-ranged attacks.
Also, this weapon’s move set is similar to the previous games, allowing players to adapt quickly.
Hence, players should use the Blades of Chaos when they want to adopt a purely offensive playstyle.
The Bottom line
All three weapons in the new GOW Valhalla are equally important as there are various enemies and bosses in the game.
Hence, learning about them beforehand can give a competitive advantage to players when facing these enemies.
