Fight with Cerberus | Chapter 10: The Temple of Delphi GoW: Ascension Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
In the temple's vestibule use chests to replenish mana and health and enter the hall through the huge door.
You'll be attacked by Cerberus supported by demonic hounds. He is very aggressive and mobile.
Besides breath and paws, Cerberus has two more dangerous abilities. First one is sinking into the floor and appearing in front of Kratos. As he sinks, make a long evade or jump away. Don't attack it immediately after its return, but wait until it stomps and only then move closer.
Cerberus will also create a violet barrier. In such moments step away. Barrier will blow up and stun you, if you're in range.
Also demonic hounds may be a problem. You can make fight easier if you clean up the battlefield and attack Cerberus one vs. one. You can retaliate his attacks with Spartan's Revenge - block let you perform a short combo.
When a white arc appears over his head, you can mount him for a while and use to eliminate smaller enemies. The final blow comes when the red arc flashes - then simply grab the dog.
After fight go towards the lever, use it and open red chests on sides of the stairs.
At the top of the stairs you find: locked door on right, a fountain with green gas on left and a relief in front of you.
Approach to the fountain to drag Kratos and when the world "corrodes", destroy the relief and door on the right.
Open two white chests in the small room (Gorgon Eye and Phoenix Feather) and pick up Note of Castor the Prophet. Then enter the corridor behind the relief. Running through it regain health and mana. Moving forward you reach door. When you open them, you'll see a short cut scene.
