Walkthrough - The Forge and Hephaestus | Walkthrough godofwar3 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

A cutscene will play and Hephaestus will forge a new weapon for you - the Nemesis Whip.

Nemesis Whip

It's the last of the basic weapons. It's quite quick, but at the same time it has a rather short reach. It's definitely the least useful weapon. Your basic Blades are good for most fights, the Cestus is a powerful weapon against single strong enemies, and Claws of Hades work great against big groups of smaller enemies. It's hard to find a proper use for the Whip.

Upon receiving it, you will be attacked by the thus far friendly god. At first he'll electrocute you - quickly tap Circle to survive. Afterwards charge up the generator in the right corner of the arena by hitting it with your new weapon. This way you will get rid of Hephaestus.

Some smaller enemies will then appear. There will be just a few of them, so you won't have any problems with eliminating them. Now you can use the Hyperion gate to visit Aphrodite once again.

Hephaestus' Ring

However before you do that, go behind the nearby water container. You will find another Godly Possession there - Hephaestus' Ring.
