Eight Valkyries, imprisoned throughout the Norse realms, are some of the most formidable foes in the game. Defeat each one in order to free them from their corrupted forms. Their fighting styles are varied, requiring you to change your tactics for each.

Six of the Valkyries are held inside Hidden Chambers of Odin that require the Chisel to unlock. The other two are found within Muspelheim and Niflheim, though both require much effort to reach. While Kara can be fought fairly early in the game by surviving the challenging Muspelheim Trials, Gunnr should be your first Valkyrie opponent—accessible soon after collecting the Chisel at Thamur’s Corpse.

Once all eight Valkyries are freed, you must deliver their helmets to the Council of Valkyries on the north side of Lake of Nine. This summons the Valkyrie Queen, the most powerful Valkyrie of all.

Return the Valkyries’ helmets and armor, as well as the Asgardian Steel and Perfect Asgardian Steel, to Brok or Sindri to craft and upgrade Epic Valkyrie gear.
