Walkthrough - Mount Olympus | Walkthrough godofwar3 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Move right, while jumping over the gaps. Afterwards climb up, until you reach the top. Move forward and open an experience chest on your way.

At the end you will have to move along a narrow edge. On the other side you will get attacked by a few enemies. They're just the basic archers, nothing to worry about.

Jump onto the ledge and go up the wooden ladder to reach a place...

... which you should memorise. A book describing the Chain of Balance can be found there. You will come across this place a few times, and each time the circumstances will be presented from a different perspective. Open the chest with health and use the upper ledge to jump over the gap by swinging on the chain.

One the other side some more enemies will attack you. Finish them off and use the ladder.

Afterwards, while holding onto the wall (on the very top), jump left [LS] and grab the edge. Move along it to the end, jump onto the top and you will reach a square.

Once on it, move to the door in the distance and go through it to reach Ares' tomb (you will have to jump over a gap created by Gaia, however if you fall down nothing will happen really - actually you'll even find an experience chest).

Centaur

Inside you will get attacked by a Centaur. He's not the toughest enemy around, but it's worth keeping an eye on him during each fight (he'll also appear later on in the game). You can block his attacks and avoid getting damaged by the spear attack by moving the left analog stick properly. In order to finish him off, you will have to go through a QTE built out of four basic buttons.

After getting rid of the enemy, approach the only lever in the area [LS] and pull it. It will activate the platform, but only once. If you won't make it in time (by going up the ladder [RS] by the room entrance), you'll have to repeat the whole process.

After a short ride you will find yourself near a chest and the first save point.

Save your game and move on. Right behind the corner you will come across a gate. Open it by quickly pressing Circle. Once you've done it, you will get attacked by another water "horse". In order to get out if it alive, you'll have to quickly press Circle [RS].

If everything goes fine, you'll once more find yourself on Gaia and will have to fight the mini-boss again. In the first phase of the fight, the monster will attack only using its limbs, sometimes with all of them at once (when it does, you'll have to jump in order to avoid it).

After a couple attacks, you'll have to launch a QTE, with three out of the basic buttons (Triangle, Circle, Square and X) randomly appearing on the screen, and afterwards tap Circle repeatedly.

This way you'll rip out one of the enemy's limbs (it will land on the ground and will be usable later) and proceed to the last phase of the fight. This time, apart from normal attacks, the special water "beam" attack will return (I remind you about the R2 special power which allows you dodge the attack).

Once you deal enough damage again, another QTE will start. You have to run to the "horse" and rip apart its "armour". In order to do it, you have to repeatedly press R1 and L1 [LS].

Afterwards, once the weak spot has been exposed, run to the previously ripped limb and throw it at the creature. This way you will get rid of it.

Gaia will change her position and you will have to climb up a vertical wall to the top.
