God Of War: 10 Awesome Rare Items You Totally Missed
Let's make those Valkyrie fights easier.
Now that the excellent God Of War has been out for a couple of weeks, players have had plenty of time to discover almost everything the game has to offer.
From crafting sexy armour pieces to digging up powerful Runic Attacks to spam, God Of War is a treasure trove of useful equipment and abilities, and while you'll come across a lot of good stuff as you play through the story naturally, the game greatly rewards players who venture off the beaten path and explore every corner of its mysterious realms.
Here, you'll find the very best enchantments, talismans, pommels, Runic Attacks and resources the game has to offer. Even on normal difficulty, God Of War can be a challenge at times, but going out of your way to acquire some of the best hidden kit in the game can make both the campaign missions and the side missions (damn that Valkyrie Queen) a lot easier.
So, whether you're stuck, or you simply want to turn your Kratos into the most badass warrior possible, here are ten missable, powerful items you definitely need to get.
10. Eye Of The Outer Realm (Enchantment)
The Item: An epic Level 6 enchantment, Eye Of The Outer Realm provides a sizable boost to every single one of Kratos' stats - they're each raised by 7. Obviously, this makes it the perfect item to slot into literally any build.
How To Get It: Eye Of The Outer Realm was initially 100% missable - as in, if you didn't grab it at the first opportunity, it was gone forever - but that's since been changed with a patch.
After the Helheim section of the campaign (where you ride a gigantic boat), you'll find yourself in one of Odin's secret chambers. When you assume control of Kratos, turn around and open the door behind you. The enchantment can be found in a chest in this room.
Unfortunately, there's no way to return to this area after you've completed the story, but luckily, you can still get the enchantment. Patch 1.21 added it to the "Lost Items" section of Brok and Sindri's shop, so check there if you missed the chest on your initial campaign playthrough.
