Frosted Health in God of War Ragnarok explained

As a seasoned God of War veteran with a hearty dose of Norse mythology knowledge and countless hours spent wielding Kratos’ Blades of Chaos, I can confidently say that the new Frosted Health mechanic in Ragnarok is a chilling addition to the combat.


As I delve into the thrilling battles of God of War Ragnarok, I’ve noticed some formidable foes sporting Frosted Health bars. This fresh mechanic adds an extra layer of challenge, making these adversaries harder to vanquish. Here’s a rundown on everything you should know about it:

What is Frosted Health?

In another phrase, you’ll notice an additional layer on an opponent’s regular health meter, and instead of the typical green bar, it will display a faint blue pattern running its entire length. This suggests that the enemy now has frosted health.

Consider it as a protective barrier of their vitality, which needs to be breached first, before you can gradually deplete their real health.

To significantly reduce an enemy’s iced health meter, it is recommended that you engage them using the Blades of Chaos. However, if you opt for the Leviathan Axe, progress against frosted health enemies might be minimal.

In the realm of Ragnarok, the weapons possess elemental properties. For instance, the Leviathan Axe can freeze objects, while the Blades of Chaos ignite whatever they come into contact with.

After surmounting the icy health threshold, you’ll have the freedom to attack the foe using any preferred weapon of your choice.

Other health bars

In God of War Ragnarok, it’s not only health bars that sparkle like frosting that you’ll see; as you advance in the game, you might also run into opponents whose health bars are either flaming or shimmering with a silvery hue.

These function similarly as you must employ a weapon with an opposing attribute to inflict damage. To illustrate, the Leviathan Axe depletes red health meters, whereas the Draupnir Spear eliminates silver health counters.
