Dwarven Steel is one of the resources in God of War Ragnarok that can be used to upgrade the armor of Kratos. Since you will be facing many powerful enemies in mid to late game, it is important always to have the best equipment and weapons to get you through the hectic boss battles. It is also important to keep the weapons and armor sets upgraded as you progress in the game.
- Dwarven Steel is a material that is needed to level up your armor in God of War Ragnarok.
- These enemies can be encountered by completing the Yggdrasil Rifts found throughout the Realms.
- You can obtain Dwarven Steel by opening Red chests, so make sure you explore every nook and cranny.
- Players can purchase 5 Dwarven Steel from the Dwarven Shop after completing the main quest called Creatures of Prophecy.
1. In The Yggdrasil Rifts
God of War Ragnarok has a lot of Yggdrasil Rifts located almost everywhere. These rifts sometimes have Dwarven Steel for you to loot along with several other items, and if you are lucky, you will even get some rare and legendary items. These rifts can be found in Alfheim, Midgard, Svartalfheim, and Vanaheim.

One of the rifts can be found in the Forbidden Sands after you have completed the Reckoning. You need to head to the north of the area and find a rock where you will be able to enter through an easily destroyable wall. After that, you need to defeat any enemies that you come across, and you will be able to find the Yggdrasil Rift in no time.
2. Red Chests
Another way of getting the Dwarven Steel is to find and open as many red chests as you can. These chests will require you to interact with some items in order to open them.

Furthermore, these chests are also hidden away in certain regions of the game where there are beaten paths. The more you progress in God of War Ragnarok, the more you will find these chests. When you reach the mid to late game, this is where you will find most of these, and sometimes you will even get four more in the same place.
3. Dwarven Shop
Dwarven Steel can also be purchased. However, in order to purchase it, you need to complete the story quest. After that, you will be able to obtain 5 bundles of Dwarven Steel in exchange for four 2500 Hacksilver.
These bundles can be obtained from the Dwarven shop in God of War Ragnarok. You need to complete the Creatures Of Prophecy, which is the 13th Path Story Quest, to be able to buy it.
