Count Raum's guards in Aetha. Their heavy armor and weapons make them dangerous foes.

  • Jen must depend on her speed, whip, and wits to defeat them.
  • While much combat can perhaps be avoided with Jen's ability to slow time as a Wraith, some guards must be defeated to gain necessary items.

Types of Valkyrie

  • Guard Captain Valeera
  • Silver and Black Valkyries with gold tassel on their helmet point.
  • Red and Black Valkyries with red breastplate and greaves, red tassel.
  • Door Wardens - equipped with a morningstar and a heavy shield. Slow but powerful. Stand off with the whip. Wraith Dodge from side to side to set them up for the heavy whip strike.
  • Rifleman - Final guard for the Blood Machine. Fires bullets from a distance. Deadly in close-quarter combat with the rifle butt and twin bayonets.

Combat

  • Jen's best tactic is frequent use of the Wraith Dodge to get her opponents off guard for a heavy strike with the whip.
  • When mobbed hit and run tactics with the Wraith Dodge to whittle done a single foe with minimal damage in return.
  • Use the Wraith Dodge to dash in for a Finishing Move on a stunned opponent, as they recover quickly.
  • Against a single opponent careful timing with the heavy whip, a hard press of R2, enables Jen to stand her ground and defeat the enemy with no damage.
