God of War Ragnarok Trail of the Dead Favor Walkthrough

November 8, 2022 by Archavia 1 Comment

Trail of the Dead is a Favor (Side Quest) for Kratos in God of War Ragnarok. This walkthrough will guide you through all objectives of the Trail of the Dead Side Quest. For an overview of all quests in the game see God of War Ragnarok All Favors.

Requirement: Flood the Crater (Complete Favor: Return of the River)
Reward: 3000 Kratos XP, 750 Atreus XP, 2 Dragon Claw

Objectives:

  • Reach the dragon’s feeding ground
  • Slay the dragon

Starting Location: Trail of the Dead

Trail of the Dead is started automatically when witnessing the dragon in The Jungle in Vanaheim, after completing Favor: Return of the River.

Reach the dragon’s feeding ground

Head down the river, ignoring the first shore on the right, and go past some tall platforms.

Go through a small tunnel in the east to land at a dock.

Head through a gap and you will face two Ogres. Deal with them both and the dragon will steal the second Ogre. While here there’ll be an Odin’s Raven above the red chest.

Go across the bridge and follow it around until you are able to board the boat again.

Head to the shore you skipped earlier. Deal with the Wulvers and there will be a Nornir Chest to open.

You will need to hit 3 totems, one is next to the chest, one is on the wall of the Celestial Altar structure, and the last is behind some bramble next to the climbable wall.


Climb and grapple along the walls to reach the area above.

Use your runic arrows and chaos blades to burn the bramble, then head across. There’ll be a Legendary Chest awaiting you.

Continue along the path and you’ll be able to climb the wall, as long as you have killed the Ogres already.

Slay the dragon

Climb up and head into the face the dragon, The Corpse Eater.

The Corpse Eater is a blue dragon that uses a variety of close range attacks as well as ice attacks. It will use a couple of block break/unblockable biting attacks that you will want to dodge. It will also do a grabbing attack where you will need to rapidly press :circle: to escape. Primarily however it will use ice attacks, such as an ice beam across the arena or launching a group of icicles in front of it, both of which can be easily avoided by dodging to the side.

Several times throughout the fight, the dragon will fly up into the air and either breathe an ice beam at you, or slam down with an area-of-effect attack. When it swoops towards you to do either attack, throw your Draupnir Spear at the dragon to bring it crashing down, giving you a chance to unload on it. This stun period is your best opportunity to use Spartan Wrath, runic attacks and companion attacks to deal heavy damage, though you can also use these during the regular close range attacks to try and stun lock it a bit.

Eventually the dragon will grab you and fly you into the air, at which point you will want to repeatedly attack it with :r2: until it drops you back in the arena. Once you get the dragon’s health bar completely down, you will have a few QTEs to finish it off.

This finishes Trail of the Dead Quest in God of War Ragnarok.
