What shield to choose at the beginning of the game?
Kratos is best known for his aggression and rage, but in God of War: Ragnarok, you can take a different path - fight intelligently and protect yourself and your allies. That's what a shield is for.
At the start of the game, the very first shield, the one given to Kratos by his beloved wife, will be damaged during the battle. Brock will offer to choose one of two options: Shield of Fearlessness or stone wall shield.
There is a problem here. At this stage of the game, you are still figuring out which fighting style suits you best and which shield option is best.
If you patiently watch and wait for the enemies to attack, then choose stone wall shield. This way you will be able to absorb incoming hits and strike back as soon as the enemy has finished their streak without having to accurately time your actions.
If you spam the attack button, hit first, then ask questions, then select Shield of Fearlessness. Constant risk will put you in situations where you need to parry quickly.
But if something goes wrong, you can freely switch between different shields at any time.
As you get more comfortable with combat, you can combine your shield's features with some of the armor in God of War: Ragnarok to get buffs that further improve your playstyle.
For example, in the later stages of the game, you can get armor that increases the damage dealt by your shield or splash damage to all enemies around you when parrying.
What is a shield frame?
The shield frame is the circle in the center that grants buffs or additional abilities that trigger when you block, parry, or hit enemies with your shield.
Skeletons can be found in all nine worlds of God of War: Ragnarok, in loot stashes, as a boss kill reward, or purchased from Brok and Sindri's shops.
