Olrun

Learn how to defeat the Valkyrie Olrun in God of War (2018). This guide covers her attacks, weaknesses, and the best strategies to overcome this challenging boss.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Olrun's primary challenge is her increased speed compared to other Valkyries.
• Blocking is useful, but dodging is often preferable, especially for her spin attack.

Phases:

1. Phase 1: Standard Attacks
   Olrun uses a variety of swift attacks. Stay locked on and be ready to block or dodge.
2. Phase 2: Spin Attack Introduction
   Olrun gains a new spinning attack where she damages you if you're not blocking. This can be followed by a Stab or a pull.
3. Phase 3: Enhanced Spin Attack
   From a distance, Olrun's spin attack can also shoot projectiles. Evade backwards to avoid both the initial spin and any subsequent projectiles.

Strategy:

• Try to maintain a lock-on on Olrun to better track her rapid movements.
• Use your shield to block attacks when you can't dodge them in time.
• When Olrun performs her spin attack, it's generally safer to evade backwards rather than block, as she can chain it into other attacks or projectiles.
• Be particularly cautious when she initiates the spin attack from a distance, as it can launch projectiles.
• Punish her openings after she completes an attack combo or misses a powerful move.
