Viking: Battle for Asgard/Enemies

Legion Berserker
The basic soldier that makes up Hel's Legion. These are the meat of her army, and are equipped with one handed swords and little to no armor. They can be defeated in about three hits.

Legion Archer
Archers are as weak as the basic soldier, but have less defensive capability since they rely on keeping distance between themselves and Skarin. Charge these enemies first, and slash them apart quickly as their shots can be an annoyance (for example shooting you from behind or while you are trying to free your allies).

Legion Warrior
Legion warriors, shield-wielding foes, are much more durable than normal ones, simply because they carry a large wooden slab that they put between themselves and Skarin. Unless you plan on breaking their shield with many powerful techniques, the best way to take them down is to body check them and then attack them while they are on the ground.

Legion Assasin
These maniacs are fast and extremely dangerous. They will attempt to leap onto Skarin if they get the chance, in which case you'll need to swivel randomly as quickly as possible to knock it to the ground. When they hit the ground they will be stunned temporarily, so use this time to kill them, otherwise you'll have to fight them like a normal undead viking. In normal combat, simply block or dodge their attacks and counter when possible.

Legion Shaman
These units are higher ranking (they appear on your minimap as a red dot), and are very dangerous if left to live. The longer they are allowed to live, the more units they summon from their portal. Destroy the metal stake that surround the shaman (they glow red like the shaman), and then kill the shaman with a single final blow (press ). Each metal stake takes three hits to destroy, and upon destruction they let out an explosion that knocks back everyone except Skarin. You can use this to your advantage if surrounded by enemies - simply use a combo attack or focus your efforts on it until it explodes, then move on as you wish (usually focusing on the next stake).

Drakan
A mighty champion that once fought for Hel, his dedication to her eventually led to his emotional downfall as he fell in love. Freya broke this bond by denouncing his love, and he slowly drove himself to madness. Drakan appears as the final boss on Niflberg.
