1. Follow the Direction of the Wolves' Heads

The compass won't show your destination like normal during the tracking part of the chapter. Instead, you should look at the wolves' heads and move towards the direction they're facing.

Boss Strategy: Frost Phantom

Throw Your Axe the Core

The first step to damaging the Frost Phantom is perform axe throws until it's staggered. Freya's arrows won't do much Stun damage here, so rely on Kratos' long range attacks for now.

Attack It While It's Stunned

Keep attacking its core until it drops down. While it's on the ground, run towards the phantom and unleash your strongest attacks to build up the Stun meter.

Destroy the Pillars

After filling the Stun meter, the Frost Phantom's pillars will be vulnerable. Destroy these pillars to take a huge chunk off the phantom's health.
