Do you get red rbs after you kill Zeus in the final battle of GOW3? I had almost upgraded all weapons and then I killed Zeus, but before checking to see I grabbed the sword and the game ended, not giving me a chance to upgrade anymore. Just wondering if its worth loading my last save and killing him again or not.

Eh i don't remember seeing orbs after you stab Gaia and Zues at the same time. If your able to pause the game i guess thats the only way to check.

Yeah I could have paused but I didn't realise that grabbing the sword would basically end everything.

I'm pretty sure you don't get any orbs at this point.

Yeah but it only takes about 5 hours if you rush through it on easy just for orbs

No orbs once you start the Zeus fight in Gaia, thats for sure. And as someone else mentioned, upgrading all weapons takes no time on easy. I managed to do it on Titan and again on easy but even earlier.

Really? I figured it was impossible to do it on Titan because I was missing several thousand red orbs at the end of my playthrough and I felt I was pretty thorough about finding red orb crates. Maybe it's because I missed some gorgon eye, phoenix feather, and minotaur horn crates early on. *shrugs*

If you max out on Gorgon eyes, phoenix feathers and minotaur horns, the later chests that are suppose to contain those items contain red orbs instead. I did this on my titan run because maxing out those things were very important so i did that and got massive amounts of red orbs.

You can glitch this trophy. Go to combat arena, choose no-infinite health, anything but easy mode, a few enemies that are supposed to attack you, then die a few times till it asks you if you wanna switch to easy, choose no. That will kick you out to the main manu and give you the trophy after about 5 seconds.
