The Krigen is a jotun warrior with 1,300 health that fights with a two-handed sword, a greataxe or a pair of axes. Its moulds are the only way to get Protector and Vanguard armour.
Behaviour
Krigen come in three builds. The dual-axe krigen is the fast one. Its cleave, slash and double-handed slash hit for 150 to 170 slash and can each be used every second, and it has two area dodges for 140 and 150 on ten-second cooldowns. The sword and greataxe krigen are slower, swinging every three seconds for 160 to 170 slash. Both of them also charge from five to ten metres away, hitting an area for 160 blunt, 80 chop and 80 pickaxe every twenty seconds. Every melee attack except the charge is used within 1.6 metres.
A one-star krigen has 2,600 health and a two-star has 3,900. The sword and greataxe cleave hits for 255 slash at one star and 340 at two, and the axe cleave for 225 and 300.
Where to Find It
All three builds spawn in the halls of Mörkhalla. Sword and greataxe krigen also show up in jotun invasions, in groups of one or two. Once the first krigen or hexen anywhere in the world is dead, sword and greataxe krigen also patrol the open Deep North by day, one or two at a time.
Mörkhalla is the great dungeon of the Deep North, behind gates you open with an intricate key. A world has up to 40 entrances, placed at least 30 metres up and 275 metres apart. Inside are around fourteen floors split by a wide central gap and joined by bridges and drawbridges, with the entrance near the top and the best loot at the bottom. The halls are always dark and count as cold, though never freezing.
A jotun invasion starts when you break the Malicious Ice on Mörkhalla's bottom floor. It lands somewhere in the Meadows, Black Forest, Swamp, Mountain or Plains, more than 1,000 metres from the centre of the world and at least 35 metres up, and up to three can run at once. Groups of single-weapon krigen and hexen arrive in waves, and elakings come too. Meteors fall every five seconds for 120 fire, 40 blunt, 50 chop and 50 pickaxe. A fresh Malicious Ice at the centre keeps calling more until you break it, and that ice is also where Malicious Blood comes from.
| Where and When | At Once | How Often | Stars |
|---|---|---|---|
| Multiple spawn points in Mörkhalla (all three variants) | - | One time | Yes |
| Daytime patrol in the Deep North that hunts the player, in groups of one to two, sword or greataxe only; requires the world key jotun_killed | 2 | Common | No |
| Jotun Invasions, in groups of one to two, sword or greataxe only | 4 | Very common | No |
Strengths and Weaknesses
It resists pierce and frost, taking half damage, and poison and spirit do nothing to it. Blunt, slash, fire and lightning land in full, and its stagger limit is half its maximum health.

Level Variants
A creature can spawn at one of three levels, shown as stars beside its name. Each level is rolled separately at spawn, so a two-star is rarer than a one-star.

Notes
- Krigen with two axes drop the three Protector moulds, and krigen with a sword or greataxe drop the three Vanguard moulds. Each mould has a 3% drop chance, rising to 6% at one star and 12% at two.
- They also drop one or two Leather Straps, or two to four at one star and four to eight at two. Memorial Coal drops one time in five and their trophy one time in ten.
- The Malicious Ice at the centre of a jotun invasion adds dual-axe krigen to the waves.
