Use These Tips to Overcome Puzzles in God of War Ragnarök

Do You Need Some Tips for God of War Ragnarök?

Your journey through a beautiful Norse world is full of mythical beasts and tricky puzzles. While you may have mastered the art of fighting, you may also be struggling to find the solution to unlock the glorious loot that lies throughout the world. If so, do not worry because If you follow these handy tips then you’ll be to solve any conundrum that you wander upon.

Be Clear About Your Objective

The first thing to do is to determine the puzzle type. If it’s a locked chest then you know that there are going to be three runes in close proximity. However, with story-based puzzles, your partner will actively talk about what you need to do so your goal is always at the forefront. After this, scour your environment. As well as searching every crevice, look up. Verticality has been excellently implemented in God of War Ragnarök so the answer to your question could be above you. 

Clues in the Environment

Often, the solution is right in front of you. Lanterns and explosive barrels are dotted around ready for you to set things alight. So, if you’re stuck and have no clue how to reach an object, search for explosives and other environmental items to help you progress.

Use the Elements

There are a number of objects that can block your path but most of these are weak to environmental powers. Remember, the Leviathan Axe can freeze, so if you see any water then experiment with this. Vines often claw items and block paths but you can simply rid areas of this with fire from the Blades of Chaos.

Color Coding

Be on the lookout for colors around the environment as this indicates that you can interact with an object. Green will require your ally to use their sonic ability which can open up new areas; purple suggests that you can use a temporary status effect or chain explosions and yellow indicates that you can use your spear to swing above or blow up objects. So if you have no clue what to do, just look for a glimmer of color.
