Crag Jaw Tips and Strategies

General Tips

Hit weak spots using the Draupnir Spear

Crag Jaw will have wounds that can be exploited using the Draupnir Spear. Throw the spear at its weak spots then detonate it to deal extra damage.

Doing this also staggers the Crag Jaw, making it open to more attacks.

Keep Parrying

Crag Jaw does not have any long-range attacks and will have attacks that can be parried. Learn the Crag Jaw's moveset to know when to dodge or parry.

Crag Jaw Attack Patterns

Basic Attacks

The Crag Jaw's basic attacks consist of two head swipes. The first is a regular attack that can be blocked without suffering a stagger.

Its follow-up attack causes stagger so players should parry. Players who are not confident in their timing can easily dodge backward.

Unblockable Bite

One of Crag Jaw's 2 unblockable attacks is a lunging bite. Dodge sideways as going backward is not enough to avoid getting hit.

Unblockable Body Slam

Similar to its bite, learn to dodge sideways instead of backward as Kratos has a higher chance of getting hit when dodging backward.

The Crag Jaw will do its body slam attack three times so prepare to attack Crag Jaw after the third time.

Tail Swipe

The tail swipe is a blockable move that will cause Kratos to stagger when blocked at the wrong time. Be sure to time the block correctly or dodge backward to completely avoid the move.

Charge Attack

Crag Jaw initiates its charge attack by retreating backward. Fortunately, this charge attack is easily blockable as it initiates a very short cutscene.
