The exploration of the Crater jungle from God of War Ragnarok continues, with a quest that will first require you to have ascended the water level in The Return of the River before it can be considered. In this one, we attack a terrestrial dragon of which you must have already seen one of the variants in one of the previous side quests of the game.
Follow the footsteps and lure the dragon
To go to the sector of this new dragon to hunt, you will have to return to the arena that contained the two trolls during the side quest The Path of the Dead. Once you have crossed the shore using the hook, you can move forward to a clearing with bloody ground, which therefore suggests that it is a playground for the dragon. Fall into the hole in the center, raise the cage using the panel to activate by throwing your ax and recover it quickly to freeze the mechanism and be able to pass . Be careful, do not take the Leviathan Ax directly, go open the gate by taking the legendary chest on the way, then go get one of the enemies posted nearby. Lure a prey to the cage, then once it's inside, lock it up by picking up your instrument of death. Finally, pull the chain to attract the dragon that interests us today, then return to the clearing to face the Horned Scoria.
Boss: Fight against the Horned Slag
This ground dragon has exactly the same moves as the Belly of Jar you encountered in the realm of Alfheim, so you should have no trouble calculating the moves of this clumsy enemy, but capable of causing you some pretty crazy damage if you don't pay a bit of attention. By successfully knocking it down, you will earn components to make yourself one of the best armors, but also a new enchantment for your amulet.
