10 Video Game Bosses Genuinely IMPOSSIBLE Without A Guide
3. Sigrun - God Of War
One can hardly imagine the shock those first players of 2018's God Of War must have felt when they came across a God Of War boss who was all but immune to the "keep hitting until it dies" strategy.
The Valkyrie boss fights in God Of War are some of the hardest in the franchise's history. They hit hard, they take a lot of punishment, and they require you to actually think before you act. Not something you do a lot of in this franchise, but fortunately, if you actually take a breather and think for a moment, you can win pretty handily.
And then Sigrun comes along to remind you of who is top warrior b*tch in this house.
Not only do you have to be really close to if not completely done with the main story to have a shot at beating Sigrun, but like with the other Valkyrie bosses you have to know when to step back and strategize and when to wail on her. This is not helped by Sigrun constantly killing you in one shot unless you have some of the game's best equipment, and treating Kratos burying a giant freaking axe in her shoulder with the same concern one might show a fly punching you.
So it's just best to look up the guide and see what you're in for ahead of time. Trust me, you're saving yourself a lot of headaches.
