God of War minor glitches & observations pt. 9.

Mostly containing fun activities near water and beaches.

I: Army of Hades will not shatter a stoned creature. This may cause the minigame circle appear, though you can't answer it...

II: BigVEE's speed swimming: forcing a charged burst to a grab, momentum is manipulated usefully. Normal charge and different styles shown as comparison.

III: You can grab while charging, which is good because you move while grabbing. This is my preferred method of speedswimming, though mix-ups are possible.

IV: The XXL high jump out of water. Only possible if you land water without Kratos in a diving (or other) animation. This is BigVEE's too.

V: An inexcusable mess of a video clip, but it hopefully teaches you something about 'Lure' and the strange momentum of dying in water. (it can get a lot faster, though by dying of a different attack)

VI: The invisible ledge syndrome. Ascend dive to a ledge and this happens. BigVEE found it, sort of...

VII: But this can happen without touching water either, an example from Aegean Sea. (this was found by me)

VIII: And as a light-toned ending clip...

how to do a XXL jump??

[AKheon]

You have to walk (important) into water. Then, do a swim rush upwards, and as you let go, tap X as quickly as possible.

I: That could b handy in some ways actually, except 4 de not being able 2 answer circle prompts.

II: Found this 1 out myself as well, woz messin' around and found it 2 b a gr8 way 2 speed up.

III: Actually THAT'S how I did it 1st time.

IV: Hmmm....I'll av 2 try that!

V: Yeah, it's funny, this room is filled with glitch potential. Ever notice how if u stay in de water, de minotaurs just freeze after like 3 attacks?

VI: Not exactly useful, but interestin'

VII: Same

VIII: I love doin' that!

[Skabuf]

(CoP)The only useful thing I could find in this room was: throw the monsters in the water to kill them instantly

[AKheon]

I could easily swim back from the Temple of the Eye (at Pandora's Rings). The elevator worked just fine.

[utinma]

and how do you do that?

i mean the elevators the only way out and in and the where you come in is blocked too.

[AKheon]

I don't get it before. After having done Hades' Challenge I simply swam back to Challenge of Poseidon.

[utinma]

yeah but how do you even get army of hades before poseidons challenge?

[AKheon]

Blade of Artemis.

[frankoredstrato]

and what is that?
