God of War Ragnarok: How to Beat Nightmare Parasites 1

Nightmare Parasites can be troublesome enemies if they're not swiftly dealt with. They're unique foes in that they can actually possess other enemies, enhancing their abilities and making them invulnerable for the duration.

To defeat a possessed enemy, and the Nightmare Parasite itself, you'll need to stun the opponent. Barehanded attacks are usually the way to go here, and a full stun will force the Parasite back into the open. From there, it's just a case of killing it with a well-placed ranged attack.

But again, do it quickly. Left alone long enough, and Parasites will simply find another host, forcing you to repeat the process.
