Stage 1

The Huntress is an aggressive boss and she attacks vehemently right from the start. Most of her attacks can be dodged and blocking her moves or effects is not going to help Kratos and Atreus as her attacks are sure to knock both of them down in a second.

Whenever Kratos runs out of energy, it’s all done. Then, her single-hit and single shot attacks are unblockable, you can only dodge to your left or right to avoid them. Then once again the Huntress boss fires a series of fire arrows and the attacks will be explosive and you can jump or dodge them. You can also block them. Use your Leviathan Axe and Spartan Rage effect, and aim for her head to inflict heavy attacks. Whenever her head turns into glowing head, you can use Atreus’ Arrows and axe to deal damage constantly to drain her energy levels.

You can stun her by attacking her Glowing Horns and she will be down on her knees. The Huntress lunges forward and inflicts heavy attacks. This time she utilizes her ranged attacks. You will be indicated with yellow circle rings. Unleash your melee attacks and combos on her head, and utilize Atreus’ arrow attacks on her legs to drain her health shield in a short span. Continue with same attacks and use different weapons whenever she’s down on her knees on the ground.
