Here we will be listing the location of every Draugr Hole in the game. What’s great is that before discovering them, these locations are marked as “Undiscovered” on the map, so you should not have any trouble finding the Draugr Holes if you know where to look for them.

The fifth Draugr Hole is found in the Abandoned Village on the Vanaheim realm. It is found in a small cave behind a waterfall, as shown in the image above, but players can very easily spot the cave as the waterfall does not do a good job of hiding it.

What Are Draugr Holes In God Of War Ragnarok

There are 6 Draugr Holes in the game, and players will need to close every single one of them to complete the “Born From Fire” quest. Completing this quest is also required if you wish to fully upgrade your Chaos Blades, as closing each of these Draugr Holes will reward you with a Chaos Spark. When all 6 of these sparks are together, they will form a full Chaos Flame which is used to upgrade the Chaos Blade.

Each of these Draugr Holes is found in different realms in the game, and at every hole site, you will encounter a miniboss named “The Hateful”. These mini-bosses can end you easily if you get careless, so keep your guard up. Parry when you get the opportunity and avoid the rest of the attacks.
