Introduction
Welcome to the God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla DLC Trophy Guide!This free DLC is a roguelite mode where you play through chambers filled with enemies. The goal is to reach the end without dying. If you die, you respawn in the hub area, called “The Shore”. However, each run is relatively short, taking only 20-30 minutes on the easiest difficulty. You can also save your progress mid-game by visiting a shop and exiting the game. This can be used to upload your save to PS+ cloud, if something goes wrong you can copy back the save and respawn at the shop. Each run you complete advances the story. The story chapters can be viewedby pressingTouchpad > Goals > Valhalla. Most of the trophies come automatically from story progress. Focus on playing through the story and try to do the Mastery Quests along the way. You unlock more gameplay features as you complete runs. You are then able to buy permanent attribute upgrades. If you play on easy you should buy the upgrades for more damage to get through it faster. To play the DLC you must download a separate file from PS Store called “God of War Ragnarök: Valhalla”. Then the DLC can be started from the Title Screen by clicking on “VALHALLA”. Also see How to Start God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla DLC. This game mode doesn’t carry over your main game progress as it takes place in a different world.
Step 1: Finish All 6 Story Chapters+ Do Mastery Challenges
On your first attempt let yourself die to advance the story. Then finish each attempt in one life without dying to advance the story. Between attempts it will give you some cutscenes. Keep doing this until you earn the trophy God of Hope for finishing the story. Everything can be done on the easiest difficulty. If you need to exit the game, visit a shop and choose to return to the main menu, this will save the game without losing progress (you can also back up the save to PS+ and copy it back if you die).
Along the way, already start working on the Mastery Quests. These can be seen by pressing Touchpad > Goals > Mastery. The easiest ones are the “Rage” and “Shield” Masteries. These only require you to select a different Rage/Shield before each attempt. More Mastery Quests become available as you advance the story. Other easy ones are for getting each weapon’s Light/Heavy Relic Glyph. Write them down on a piece of paper and cross them off as you find them, they come randomly from loot chests.
Step 2:Boat Captain Keys & The Forum Arena
The Boat Captain Keys start spawning after reclaiming Pandora’s Statue during the final story Chapter “The Work, Part 3: Benevolence”. It will now spawn 1 key per attempt, always in the first chamber, next to the first chest, in front of the wooden painting. They look like purple glowing items on the ground. You will need another 3 full playthroughs for this. Collect the Key in the first chamber on each attempt, it always spawns in the same place. You must beat Týr at the end of each run to make another key spawn, if you die it won’t spawn a key.
After the story you will also gain access to the third and final arena, called “The Forum”. The three arenas can be played in the foggy maze before the Týr boss (one on the right, one on the left, one in the middle upstairs).
If you haven’t gotten Wayfarer for visiting all 9 Realms, make sure that at the start of each run you pick a different weapon bonus from the first chest. What weapon bonus you pick determines what Realm you will visit before the foggy maze area. The 2nd last Realm you visit is always tied to what weapon bonus you selected at the first chest. These realms will never randomly appear, so the only way to get them is to pick between the Axe, Blades, or Spear from the first chest.
