How to Unlock Best Skills in GoW Ragnarok
First, we will start off with how to unlock skills, especially the ones later in the skill tree. Skills unlocked the same way as in God of War 2018. Some of the skills are also the same.
In order to get the higher-level skills you need to upgrade your weapon at the dwarf’s shop with either the frozen flame or the chaos flame. These will increase the weapon stats and its damage but it will also unlock the next part of the skill tree.

10 Best Skills to Get Early in God of War Ragnarok
The main thing that you should focus on is the weapon status effect and how to apply them more quickly as well as more efficiently. Also following up on that Elemental damage by using the combo and the other status effect. So, In God of War Ragnarok Frost and Fire’s damage effect on enemies is significantly expanded. You can apply this effect pretty rapidly with some skills and then switch to the Blade of Chaos if you have applied frost. It will deal extra damage.
Two skills that you wanna first pick up and then we will expand from there.
- The first one is in the Leviathan Axe (Extinguish Flames). Now what this skill does, will increase the Leviathan Axe’s damage to the burning enemies.
- Then the next one you will choose the Vaporise Frost skill for the Blade of Chaos. You can basically get them at the start of the game. It will just massively improve the damage overall.
Initially, at the beginning of the game, you are going to apply those status effects on enemies with that triangle skill the Frost awakening, and the Whiplash with the Blade of Chaos, But your runic attacks will allow you to apply those effects easier.
Just between the weapons during the fight, will help you a lot and also allows you to use the special ability on both of the weapons.
