This is Vahalla mode, it has perks that enhance weapons differently compare to the main story mode. I personally believe the axe has better overall single-target damage output compare to the blades, but you dont need to worry about that, just use what you like, you can defeat anything with any weapon

Firstly, it is in Valhalla DLC, which has somewhat different difficulty level selection. Although the clip in question is still on highest difficulty of Valhalla DLC, which is Show Me Mastery Secondly, Axe has higher single hit damage than Blades, but Blades have higher hit rate and their Triangle attacks are more easily exploitable than Axe's Triangle attacks. The weapon's effectiveness is heavily based on your gameplay approach and your build setup, Axe can absolutely match or even overpower the Blades with the right setup and tactics (and vice versa) Thirdly, GMGOW is meant to be as hard as it can be: most of the enemies can kill you in 3 to 4 hits and it requires very good familiarity with gameplay mechanics from the player in order to tackle GMGOW efficiently. Kratos is tankier in Valhalla DLC (even on highest difficulty) compared to main game, but this is counterbalanced by the rogue-like nature of the DLC (if you die you start the Gauntlet from the beginning) and just because Kratos is tankier doesn't mean that you can get complacent: enemies can and will overwhelm you easily if you get sloppy Last but not least, Valhalla's build making differs noticeably from Main Game: you can stack up the effects from multiple armor pieces and weapon pommels, Relics have no Cooldowns (but they DO have limited uses), some Main Game perks have been adjusted for Valhalla and some perks are ONLY accessible in Valhalla (notable example being Deep Freeze perk for Axe Stance Switch attacks that you can see in this video). On the other hand, Main Game builds can be powerful in their own right (and NG+ in particular vastly broadens the possibilities), and with right setup you can be just as unstoppable there. Just gotta know your strengths and weaknesses :)

The Deep Freeze glyph is so OP. Combined with the one that gives it more power and stagger resistance and you’ll be mowing down enemies left and right.

1:10 two hits technically, since the last Pride of the Frost hit also reached that Minotaur

Hello unc

@@Tialha hello gramps

in my experience the axe was the best with the combo finisher frost upgrde

​@@TakoOVRI think the Axe is the best. It gets ridiculously overpowered with the right glyphs.

Huh?

it’s a perk called deep freeze where you do the entire whirlwind throw combo and at the end it will actiavte

I wanna know what exactly seems choppy to you? I'm being serious

Probably the axe
