Once you get to the top of the ladder, go to your left and enter the building at the end for a cutscene. When it's over, you'll be on a big platform where you'll have to fight a bunch of enemies, including the infected humans with spears, as well as Megaera's bugs. After they're dead, it's time for the first boss!
| BOSS: AEGAEON |
| The first phase of the battle takes place on the same platform as before, but it's being held by the infected Aegaeon. This can prove a little challenging, especially on higher difficulties, as you not only have to contend with Aegaeon's claws itself, but also infected humans with swords. Your goal here is to attack either of the two claws with exposed parts until it breaks, which will trigger the second phase. The second phase takes place on a smaller, stable platform where you will have to fight one of the infected arms again, while also avoiding the attacks of the armored claws. The Arm only has two attacks, which are to either attack with its tusks at close range, or stab the ground three times while moving to the left. You also have to watch out for the claws on the left side, as they will also attack, but as long as you stay to the right, you'll be fine. When you get the chance, attack the Arm until you see a white bar appear above its head. Grapple it and you'll now be in control of the Arm, so attack it to make it attack Aegaeon. After three attacks, Kratos will automatically grapple onto Megaera and you'll have a mini-battle with her. Just attack and dodge when you have to until Kratos ends up killing Megaera. |
