On this page of the God of War Ragnarok guide, you will find a description of the fight with Fiske, which occurs in the The Reckoning main quest available in Vanaheim. The following walkthrough explains how to defeat the boss and how to avoid Fiske's powerful scythe attacks.
Location of fighting Fiske
Fiske is one of Odin's captains. The fight with this boss happens during The Reckoning main quest available in Vanaheim.
You face Fiske in the Abandoned Village region. You will meet the boss shortly after solving the environmental puzzle with the damaged bridge.
Description of the boss fight
You can start the fight by using some ranged attacks.
The boss will take some time to get up from the ground and approach Kratos. Later in the fight, melee attacks are a better option as the area is unfortunately relatively small.
Fiske can use combos with his large scythe. You should be able to block the first two attacks without any problems, but the last swing may be a yellow or red attack. You can parry or dodge the yellow attacks, while red ones can only be evaded.
The boss can also perform single red attacks - strong swings with the scythe. You must dodge them at the perfect moment. The scythe, unfortunately, has a considerable range, and there is a high risk that you will get hit by a red attack after dodging at the wrong moment.
Some of the boss's attacks may also be marked with blue rings - you can interrupt this attack. Press the L1 button 2 times to perform a shield bash.
Fiske's attacks can inflict Bifrost. If you get it, try to avoid further damage for a while to avoid an explosion and heavy damage.
The boss can be stunned (you can fill up the white bar easily by, e.g. stopping blue attacks with a shield bash). Quickly press R3 after approaching the boss to deal massive damage.
Also, don't forget to use the Spartan Rage to weaken the boss faster or to heal Kratos.
At the very end of the fight, the boss will get stunned again. Perform an execution (R3).
