God Of War Ragnarok: All Crafting Materials & Locations

God of War Ragnarok has a complex crafting system that involves a lot of different items. There is a vast array of crafting materials scattered all over the Nine Realms, and it can be hard to know how to obtain a specific material. These can be acquired through different methods. 

All God Of War Ragnarok Crafting Materials 

Here is a list of all the materials in God of War Ragnarok in alphabetical order:

1. Asgardian Ingot

One of the rarer materials in the game is the Asgardian Ingot, and it will be challenging to obtain. However, with a little skill, you can defeat the Valkaryies to acquire precious resources. The Asgardian Ingot is more of a Mid to Late-game item and can upgrade your Armor to a higher level. It is very useful and is a requirement to upgrade most Armor. 

You can Obtain it in a number of ways, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find. However, there it is not abundant resources, so try to use them carefully. You can get it from the Red Chest located all over the game, but Red Chests are Rare, and you won’t always get an Asgardian Ingot to form a Red Chest. Moreover, you can get you to get it from Mob Drops like Valkaryies and also for completing the Muspelheim Trails. You can also get it from the Wishing Well. 

2. Beast Bones

One resource which is abundant in God of War Ragnarok is the Beast Bones. Much like all of the resources in the Crafting Materials In God Of War Ragnarok List, Beast Bones are also used to craft and upgrade Armor. They are quite common, and you can easily farm them. 

One of the main ways to get Beast Bones is to defeat Beast-class creatures in the game. Defeating Beast-class creatures such as Gradungr and Wyvern is a confirmed way to get Beast Bones. Once you defeat Beast-Class creatures, they should drop beast bones on the ground, and you can collect them. You can also get them from Red and Legendary chests, but that’s quite rare and not a guaranteed way to obtain them. 

3. Beast Scraps

Much Like the Beast Bones, the Beast Scraps can be found throughout the game. Also, you can use these to upgrade items for both characters, such as Kratos Relics and even Atreus’s Bow. So these are very useful and lucky for you. They are as easy to get the Beast bones so that you can collect both of them together. 

Beating animals of the Beast class in the game is one of the primary ways to obtain Beast Scraps. They are also occasionally found in Red and Legendary chests, but they are not always to be found there. It is known that defeating creatures of the Beast class, such as Wyvern and Gradungr, will provide Beast Scraps. Beast-Class monsters should drop scraps on the ground when you defeat them so you can collect them. 

4. Blazing Embers

The Blazing Embers are one of the few unique materials in the God of War Ragnarok. However, that makes them a little harder to acquire. They are very rare, and for a good reason. The Blazing Embers are a resource that boosts your Shields defense and upgrades it to be stronger and more efficient. A sturdy Shield is key in winning fights against stronger bosses. 

There is only one way to get the Blazing Ember in God of War Ragnarok, which is known at the moment. You will have to unlock the Muspelheim Realm and enter the Muspelheim Crucible Trails. You get the Blazing Embers along with other rewards throughout the Trail. More Specifically, you will get it for a Chest that unlocks after you complete the “Health Steal” Challenge. 

5. Bonded Leather

One of the most often required materials to Upgrade your Armor is Bonded leather. More specifically, you need Bonded leather to upgrade the Belts and Wrap pieces of you your Armor set. Bonded Leather is not too common or too rare and sits perfectly in the middle. 

You can get it a number of ways, but it will be harder to get than Beast Bones. However, similar to Beast Bones, you get most of it but kill enemies especially Mini-Bosses. They aren’t too tough to beat but can be time-consuming if you are trying to farm Bonded Leather. You also get it floating in the Lake located in Svartalfheim and also find it in some Chests. 

6. Crackle Of Bilskirnir

Another unique Crafting material on the List is going to be the Crackle of Bilskirnir. The use of the Crackle of Bilskirnir is specific and unlike the other materials. You can use the Crackle of Bilskirnir along with the “Lost Pages” to craft Hilt Of Ridill. 

There is only one wave to get the Crackle of Bilskirnir, and that’s by completing a Side Quest. Side Quests are known as favors in the game, and you will have to complete the “Animal Instincts” favor in Mid Guard. During the Favor, you will fight a miniboss named Olaf Nautson, and once you defeat him, he will drop Crackle of Bilskirnir.

7. Divine Ashes

When you are in the End game, you have a lot of cool and upgraded Armor, but you need to find pretty rare and hard-to-obtain resources to do that. Divine Ashes is a crafting material that is used to upgrade Gear to higher levels. They can only be obtained in Muspelheim Realm but are available in good quantity there. 

Much like the Blazing Embers are found in the Crucible Trails, so are the Divine Ashes, so you will be available to gain Farm both of them together. However, the Divine Ashes are much more common than the Blazing Embers. Due to this, in the end, you will have a lot more of the Divine Ashes than the Blazing Embers. You have to play the trails and find them as rewards in Chests throughout the trails. 

8. Dragon Claw

Everyone loves cool Armor and Dragons, so why not combine the two? God of War Ragnarok allows you to slay dragons and use the materials you obtain from them to craft and Upgrade your Armor. If you want to play with the Dragon Scale Armor, you will need to get a lot of Dragon Claws. They are Rare and might be a bit challenging to obtain.

The only main way to get the Dragon Claw is to kill dragons and drakes and obtain it from the loot they drop. The dragons and Drakes are scattered all over the Vanaheim Realm, so that will be the best place to farm them.  The only Drake that is not present in Vanaheim is the Gravel Belly boss, the shows up in Alfheim while doing the “Desert Door” Favor. 

9. Dragon Tooth

Dragon Tooths are very similar to Dragon Claws with the expectation of their Rarity. While the Dragon Claws have similar uses and ways to obtain them, Dragon Teeth are a bit more common and can also be obtained by killing Drekis. The rest is pretty much the same as the Dragon Claw, as both are used to craft and upgrade the dragon-scale armor in God Of War Ragnarok. 

10. Dust of Realms

Dust on realms is used to upgrade shields, much like the Blazing Embers. It is also a late-game item, and you will need to find a lot of them to upgrade your shields. They aren’t abundant so use them wisely. It might take you some time and effort to gather them. However, they are worth the grind and will give you an edge against the enemy. 

There are 3 ways to get the Dust of war in God of War Ragnarok. The first one is going to be closing the Draugr holes. There 6 holes, and you get Dust from closing each one of them. The second method is to discover the  Yggdrasil Rifts all over the Realms, there are 15  Yggdrasil Riff locations, and you can find a bit of Dust at each location. The Third way is complete the “Born From From” favor in which you will defeat “The Hateful” who will drop a bunch of Dust of Realms.

Once you do the “Tower of Light” Quest in Alfheim, you will unlock Dwarven Steel. After that, you will start to see it everywhere. You can get it from Mob Drops and even from Red Chest. But the best thing about Drawven steel is you can buy it from the workshop in bundles of 5 for 2500 Hacksilver.  You don’t really need to focus on finding it, as the better option is to collect Hacksilver and just buy it.

12. Essence Of Hel
