The Alfheim one? I just ran into her. My first Valkyrie. Ya'll weren't playing, these shyts are hard.
You should max out Atreus Bow. I didn't until the very end of the game...hoarded all my experience points upgrading all these damn light and heavy runic attacks I NEVER USED or even equipped
But I think at level 4 or 5 his bow begins to do MASSIVE amounts of damage. Specifically the lightning arrows where they can actual flat out stun an enemy with an arrow or two. That is how I ended up beating all the Valkyries except Sigrun...stun with his lightning arrows then heavy running over hand attack...stun with arrows then light runic attack...stun with arrows then heavy runic attack...stun with arrows then cleave attack...had my spartan rage maxed out so use that and used the heavy stomp attack and the boulder throw attack...probably a minute and a half into every Valkyrie fight except Sigrun I had about 60% of their health down doing this...and the only thing that didn't work on Sigrun was the cleave attack she somehow could move out the way EVERY SINGLE fukkING TIME
The next time I play this I am going to max out Atreus stats way earlier in the game cause I pretty much ignored him all the way up until the second time you go to Hel and really only upgraded him cause I had nothing left to spend exp on...
I played the game in a real stupid way...instead of focusing my armor on one or two of each type of armor i was trying to max all them shyts out then i ended up with barely enough resources to get to level 6 by the end...
I also used enchantments wrong and didn't much pay attention to what they actually did as a perk, instead of focusing on what their stats said...for example I got some enchantment that dropped ice poison and fire damage by 12 percent...and i am assuming it was 3 of them in the game cause I got the message saying they stacked for something much higher...but it only gave like a + 8 to defense...so I never used it cause I had some other enchantments that increased multiple stats...I only ever used it when I was fighting this high level revenant and ice draugur out of a realm tear that would kill me with two hits and so I went and looked at my enchantments and saw I had it...was like
...no idea where i got it from though...
Atreus also has some armor suit that increases his damage...I noticed when I had it equipped every time I did a heavy running attack he would jump right over my head and shoot an arrow right into the enemies face and for low level or mid level enemies it would either kill them or stun them and I could instantly cleave them...or maybe that was just the game cause supposedly the deeper in the game you get the stronger he gets?
He started doing it when I changed his armor though when I first had to fight a Wulver
