God Of War: Chains of Olympus Walkthrough
This is on the normal difficulty.
The Shores of Attica ( TSOA111 )
--------------------
*NOTE: Remember, you have a move list if you press Start and then R.*
Start by killing the first wave of enemies, learning to combo both attacks and
finishing with the heavy attack for the power slam on the ground. Use the grab
and the double jump, and remember you can attack while in the air. Eventually
you will see a focus on the ballista and more enemies will appear. Just kill
them and then go pull back on the arrow, fire, bust the crates on this roof,
check the body on the side, and then jump down.
*NOTE: You could save the upcoming chest, if you are at full health.*
==============
BOSS: Basilisk ( BAS222 )
Just a few enemies to finish off down here, more crates, and a health chest.
When you try to open the door, be ready to mash the O button in the scene, and
then a fight with another monster. This fight is a joke, as about every other
hit will spill health. Just attack and be ready to dodge both attacks, but it
doesn't matter a whole lot. When the O appears above the Basilisk's head, go
follow the button sequence. Then out the door.
=====
On the beach, just watch for the glowing red circles on the ground as you push
the ram to the gate, but before you bust it down, go open the red orb chest on
the right and save your game on the left. Use the ram to bust down the door and
go through for a fight.
At the broken bridge you just swim over the water and kill the archers, and
remember you can jump and dodge to avoid the arrows. There is a health chest
if you need it. For the crank, you just turn it to lower the door and then run
through before it closes. It's simple, just turn it so that you end up on the
side in the direction of the door, run, and then do a dodge to roll under
the door.
There is a fight and then break the wooden boards that reveal a ladder. Climb
up to the next level, jump off, and open a chest for a Gorgon Eye. At the
top, press O to knock down the block, fight, and then go left for an orb
chest. Then go right and across a beam, careful to keep your balance, and then
you hit a health chest and a door.
==================
BOSS: Persian King ( PERKING333 )
After the scene, you got a fight with a Persian King, which is odd. Either way,
he is dangerous, so know when to block, when to double jump away, and when
to dodge. For his normal swinging attack, just block (L), but for his charging
attack where his blade turns red, just jump away or roll. For his big attack
where you see a big red guy above his head, be sure to roll away. Just keep
using your Square button to pelt him with small, ranged attacks, and combo
when you see fit, but when you do combo you must be ready to avoid any attack
he may use. You don't have to focus on the minions, but don't let them swarm
you or anything if you know what I mean; just attack them when he is not
nearby. Once you see the O above his head, do the button press sequence, which
is done only after the cutscene.
=====
You obtain The Efreet. Then you can test it out on the few enemies, and then
go hit both gates to open them. On the left is a save and the door to go
beyond, but you want to go into the cell on the right for a hot naked encounter
with two prisoners (you can only earn orbs once, but feel free to play as many
times as you must). Take the path out after you save.
The object in this area is to kill the enemies, knock down both ladders, and
then turn the ballista into position to fire at the Basilisk. Don't forget to
use the health/magic chest for whatever you need. Before you leave, go to the
ballista and turn it to look straight ahead, where it should lock into place.
Look into the distance and notice a structure, but you will probably look at
the wrong place. Either way, just fire a bolt and you should see part of a
wall break. That is for a hidden chest later on.
Break some jars on the sides and then up the ladder (I hope you realize that
crates and barrels are always around, so I shouldn't have to mention them all
the time). Up the ladder will be an orb and Phoenix Feather chest. Then go turn
the crank to go below.
In the open you run into another Cyclops. Just pelt him with combos, aerial and
press Triangle is my preferred attack, and then roll away as soon as he starts
to attack. Don't forget to use your Efreet and when he's low, go do the button
press. Then use the two chests and go out the gate.
Through it will be some archers, and then grab the orb chest and the Gorgon
Eye on the left. Save and go up the ladder to wall climb. At the top, make your
way right and knock down two ladders, then jump across a gap to land on a roof
with two archers. Kill them and grab the orb chest and the Phoenix Feather. Now
jump back and go kill the other archer on the other roof, and go ahead and kill
the others and knock down the ladders. Now, if you used the ballista way back
to make a hole in this structure, go inside for the Gorgon Eye and don't forget
to use that multi-chest. Then go break the wall on the right and pull the lever
that will take you down, and you can't come back up.
*NOTE: If you didn't use the ballista to make the hole, you could have gone the
relatively-short distance back to do it still.*
Down here, go left for orbs in crates and a chest. At this time you should
go to the pause menu where you will find the Power Up screen, as well as other
screens if you press L or R. But if you press X while you have the Blades of
Chaos selected, you will spend your orbs toward an upgrade. You should be about
600 or so short, so keep that in mind as you progress. And yes, you could spend
them on your Efreet, but don't. Anyway, go through the door atop the steps.
After the scene, go kill the soldiers. Where you find the archers, there will
be an orb chest, and then go around the corner for an alley with two more.
After you comb the area for crates, go find the big box and kick it onto the
pressure pad by the door. Then pick up the body you saw the Basilisk drop and
take it through to drop it on another pressure pad. Go through the second door.
An orb chest, save point, health and magic, then a Phoenix Feather, and all of
it in this hallway. Open the door and go out into the wide open area for what
else, a boss fight.
======================
BOSS: Basilisk Round 2 ( BASR2444 )
Run to the end of the bridge and he will show. The trick is to attack, but
not up close. He has three attacks while on the bridge: claw swipe, chomps
twice, and fire sweep. You dodge the swipe by rolling, even into the claw just
before it strikes will work, usually. To avoid the chomping, you must not be
too close and hopefully on the left side, so that all you have to do is roll
backward, but not too far so that he will move up closer. And the fire is jump-
overable.
As far as attacking, just stay on the left and attack his claw, but make sure
you aren't attacking the sides and missing him. He may also get you in a bite,
but shouldn't see it unless you are at the end of the bridge; and you just tap
L and R one after the other. The object is to fight him back toward the door
where he will jump above and spit fireballs. Just don't get too far from him
so that he moves farther from the door, but attack the claw from a medium
distance and pelt with Square attacks.
When he is above the door, run toward his claw and notice the fireballs. Jump
when they almost hit the ground and press O when you can. All you have to do is
spin the joystick left from the top around in "light" circles, and I say light
because spinning as fast as you can doesn't seem to work, but not too light;
just make sure you are pulling him toward you.
Then you must repeat pushing him back one more time, which will be just the
same process. After this time, there will be one more go at his claw on the
bridge, and as soon as you stun him, quickly run to his throat and press O.
Follow the button presses and you're done.
=====
Don't forget to upgrade the Blades of Chaos. Go open the chest for a Phoenix
Feather, then climb over the ledge for an orb chest, and then climb down to the
bottom.
