Freya may not be on the best of terms with Kratos after the murder of her son Baldur, but she is an ally who deserves respect and becomes vital to the war against Odin in God of War Ragnarok. With Freya as an ally, the Valkyrie Queen can prove that she has the potential to rival Kratos with unbridled rage and an extended skillset that can be upgraded with XP.
God Of War Ragnarok: Best Runic Summons, Ranked
With a total of 8 Runic Summons in God of War Ragnarok, players might need some convincing on which one is worth investing for their style.
Freya is an incredible teammate to have, and the best Freya skills in God of War Ragnarok will see her become more aggressive against her enemies. Freya has plenty of skills to unlock, but the best skills to unlock first are going to aid in her violent performance, providing her with stronger independence in combat and a few more arrows to utilize.
6 Valkyrie Mind
Freya Uses More Arrows During Combat
- Freya enters her Valkyrie Form and unleashes a barrage of arrows.
Further versatility of Freya’s abilities is never a bad thing, and the Valkyrie Mind skill will allow deeper upgrades of the Valkyrie skill tree that will see Freya utilize arrows in her arsenal. It’s a skill that everyone should work to unlock for its potential in combat, especially when it’s a quick volley of arrows that easily destroys foes.
Valkyrie Mind provides new ways for Freya to fight, and the fact that her abilities in the Valkyrie tree already make her aggressive and worthy of standing with Kratos, it’s great to see a barrage of arrows that can help her stand out to stagger and stun her enemies.
5 Valkyrie Spirit
Freya Becomes More Aggressive During Combat
- Freya enters Her Valkyrie Form to slash through enemies.
Unlocking the first skill in the Valkyrie tree isn’t just going to be great for the further skills that can be purchased down the line with Freya XP, but it’s also incredible for its potential in combat. V
God Of War Ragnarok: The Leviathan Axe's Best Runic Attacks, Ranked
The Leviathan Axe can be brutal and integral to Kratos's weapon kit in God of War Ragnarok, especially when using the best Runic Attacks.
Valkyrie Spirit allows Freya to be more independent in battle, and she can use her sword and Valkyrie wings to slash at enemies and even cut right through them. It’s an aggressive skill that unlocks further combat potential in Freya as a partner.
4 Goddess Focus
Freya Has Access to More Specialized Abilities and Ranged Attacks
- Freya adds more specialized abilities to her Ranged Attacks.
With Goddess Focus acquired, Freya’s abilities in the battlefield rival that of Kratos. Goddess Focus allows Freya to access more specialized attacks and abilities when it comes to using a bow, so further exploration of ranged attacks means she is useful in close-range and long-range equally.
It’s always good to have Freya’s support, especially when there are overwhelming enemies that seek the demise of Kratos. With Goddess Focus active, Freya’s Valkyrie abilities will benefit Kratos due to their aggressive tactics that cover any distance.
3 Goddess Aggression
Freya is Able to Parry and Charge Enemies
- Freya becomes much more aggressive in the battlefield, Parrying and charging in at enemies more often.
Building up from the Valkyrie Spirit skill, Goddess Aggression is the much-needed upgrade that will see Freya soar as the Valkyrie Queen. It’s a great skill to invest in early on thanks to the fact that she becomes far more aggressive, which means Kratos needs to keep his eye on her even less as she parries enemies and charges into them ready for war more often.
God Of War Ragnarok: Blades Of Chaos's Best Runic Attacks, Ranked
Unleashing these devastating runic attacks with the Blades of Chaos in God of War Ragnarok is a great way to deal immense damage.
The fact that Freya can now stun enemies is going to greatly benefit Kratos, as it will not only build up more damage, but it will continue the stun meter that will allow Kratos to finish the enemy off with brutality. Further investment into Valkyrie's skill is always a good thing for its offense upgrades.
2 Arrow Surplus
Freya's Quiver is Updated to Include an Extra Runic Arrow
- Freya gains an additional Runic Arrow.
It’s always important to utilise the AI partners of Atreus and Freya in battle, as their arrow count can really help to stun enemies and build the runic meter that will allow for more damage. Yet, there is a limited arrow count before these marksmen need a recharge, so providing Freya with the Arrow Surplus skill means she can have an additional Runic Arrow to use in battle.
Having an additional Runic Arrow makes the fight simpler, as Freya can be used to shoot a volley at opponents without concern of reaching into an empty quiver. More arrows mean more damage, and that’s always going to benefit Kratos, especially when attempting puzzles that utilize Runic Arrows.
1 Entangled Grip 1
Freya Encases Enemies in Vines to Hold Them Still
- Freya can spawn vines from the ground that root enemies in place.
Entangled Grip is an essential skill to unlock for Freya, as it will really help keep enemies off of Kratos. With Freya’s Vanir Magic, she will be able to entangle weaker enemies into the grip of her vines, allowing Kratos a brief moment of respite so as to not be overwhelmed by an army of lesser foes. Alternatively, it can also be used to keep an enemy in place to lay down an attack.
Entangled Grip always comes in clutch in intense battles with a plethora of enemies, so it’s one to invest into straight away, especially when it’s the first in the Vanir Magic skill tree that will be required to unlock if players want to unlock even more skills.
