How to Defeat Einherjar Warriors in God of War Ragnarok

Resurrected for a third or fourth time, Einherjar warriors are the original humanoid enemies in GoW Ragnarok. You will encounter them several times as you progress through the story quests.

So, here is how you can defeat the Einherjar warriors:

  • Even though they are comparable to the Einhercheri in terms of strength, there is not much difference in their fighting style. Having said that, Einherjar warriors are quite aggressive and strong opponents.
  • While Einherjar warriors wield simple one-handed weapons, you need to know when to parry, dodge, or block their attacks.
  • Einherjar Warriors can hit Bifrost on the health bar. While Bifrost is on cooldown, avoid getting hit as it can explode, dealing extra damage.
  • You need to keep your shield up while fighting these enemies. So, don’t forget to equip Kratos with the best shields.
  • You can also fight them barehanded to hit or stun them.
  • Since you will be empty handed, you can also use Spartan Kick on these enemies.
  • Once you stun them, you can finish them off with the Leviathan Ax or Blades of Chaos.
  • Einherjar warriors are easy to defeat if you haven’t been hit by their Bifrost attacks in GoW Ragnarok.
