The Valkyrie Elysium Einherjar are a group recruitable characters that will assist Maria in her quest to complete her mission as a Valkyrie.
You’ll spend the entirety of the game’s campaign battling alongside your character and honing her skills. On the other hand, there are also summoned souls called the Einherjar that provide their own unique skills and abilities to make it even more intense.
As such, we’ve prepared a complete guide on all the recruitable Einherjar in Valkyrie Elysium, along with their specific skillsets so you can figure out what’s best for your playstyle.
