God of War Ragnarok: How To Find & Defeat The Ogres In The Jungle

Stop all that rock throwing once and for all.

In God of War Ragnarok, almost as soon as you arrive at The Jungle region of The Crater in Vanaheim, an ogre starts throwing huge rocks at you. This prevents you from exploring certain paths. To stop the ogre’s rampage, you have to get closer to it. However, every time you find a path leading to it, it’ll block your way with more boulders. We’ll show you the method of reaching the Ogre in the Jungle and defeating it with ease in God of War Ragnarok.

How to Get to the Ogres in The Jungle

Before you can reach the ogres, you have to complete the Return of the River Favor by opening the dam in the southwest of The Jungle.

After you’ve done that, you can climb back down off the dam and board a boat. As you paddle east, you’ll notice various shores along the way. Ignore all of them.

Instead, paddle all the way to the east end of the river, then turn left down a narrow tunnel. Disembark at the dock at the far end of this tunnel, then head west up the slope and squeeze through the gap to find the ogres.

How to Kill the Ogres in the Jungle

The first thing you need to do is kill the two nokken that are regenerating the ogres’ health. They’re small and fast, but they don’t have much health, so don’t waste any special attacks on them.

Once you’ve killed both the nokken, focus your efforts on one of the ogres. Use your Runic and Rage attacks, of course, but also use lots of Stun arrows and light attacks, because you really want to stun it rather than kill it outright.

After you’ve stunned it, press the right analog stick to climb onto its shoulders and use it to attack the other ogre. You’ll eventually kill “your” ogre, but the second ogre should now be nicely softened up, and easy to finish off.
