Using Enchantments in God of War: Ragnarok
Other games have the option to socket gems into weapons and armor, like Diablo III. God of War: Ragnarok has joined that trend and added in Enchantments to its already complex combat system. They are gems that can be socketed into Kratos’s armor to give you all sorts of buffs such as reduced damage, extra activations of perks, or even higher stats. You can get 4 different types of Enchantments in God of War: Ragnarok. They are Common, Rare, Legendary, and Epic, and each is colored between green, blue, purple, and gold to tell the difference.
How to Find Enchantments
Enchantments can be found in a variety of ways, and in multiple different places. However, they are primarily found in chests, or as drops from enemies you’ve defeated. Though, you can also purchase them from Book or Sindri. Another cool way to collect some enchantments is to trade Hacksilver or Enchanted Dust with the graves in exchange for some new enchantments for Kratos.
