Here is how you can defeat Garm in God of War Ragnarok.
Garm can be a particularly hard boss to defeat in God of War Ragnarok. During the fight, it jumps around quite frequently, while randomly doing projectile attacks, hence it can take a lot of time to eliminate it. But there are some tricks that help you attack it more and faster. So in this guide check out how to beat Garm in God of War Ragnarok.
You can Defeat Garm by having Atreus put the soul of Fenrir in it. This is what you need to do in its last phase. For the first phase, you need to deplete its health by dodging several of its attacks. So here is the breakdown of its moves in both phases and how to counter them.
During the first Phase Garm uses the following attacks:
An important thing you can do during this fight is throw your spear at the golden shackles at its legs and neck. Once it hits the spot make your spear explode. But only do these attacks if you are confident with your aim and speed. Garm is quite fast, so if you are slow with your targeting it will unleash its next attack while you are aiming.
The best way to deplete its health is by stun-pulling its chain and unleashing your attacks or attacking when its face is closer to you during its bite attacks.
After Garm’s health reaches zero you will play a quick time event and it will show Kratos and Atreus defeating Garm. But it isn’t dead yet. After you progress a bit, Garm will be back for its second phase.
In the second phase Garm, it will use all of the same moves as in its first phase. You need to deplete its health to bring it near zero. Then Garm will regenerate its health to full. But this time Atreus will tell you he has a plan. For the final time, deplete Garm’s health or try to stun it. Once it is down. Rush towards its neck and press R3. Now repeatedly press Circle and help Atreus climb its back. Once Atreus stabs it with his knife and casts his spell. Garm will calm down and will have the soul of Fenrir in it.
