- Mod Tokens are used to modify Skills in God of War Ragnarok.
- These mode tokens can enhance different Skills of Leviathan Axe and Blades of Chaos.
- You can get them by increasing the Skill Labour for that particular Skill and reaching the gold tier.
A great new addition to the fast-paced combat system of God of War Ragnarok is the Mod Tokens. These can be used to enhance the Skills of weapons used by Kratos. Unfortunately, for the fans, Mod Tokens can be quite easy to miss as the game won’t tell you about them firsthand.
Also, you will be able to complete your game without it. But it is important to understand what Mod Tokens are and how they work, as they will make Kratos and his weapons more powerful and ultimately help you beat bosses easily in God of War Ragnarok.
What Are Mod Tokens
In God of War Ragnarok, you will find Kratos to be more aggressive. When you first start that game, you will get two primary weapons called Blades of Chaos and Leviathan Axe. Both of these weapons have intricate Skill Trees and abilities that can be leveled up and modified using the Mod Tokens.

Mod Tokens are a great addition as they will further add a layer of Skill customization for Kratos. This will allow you to choose Skills for different builds and the play style that suits you the most.
Therefore, mod Skills are actually a kind of currency that you can use to modify the Skills for Blades of Chaos or Leviathan Axe. While you won’t feel a great change to the actual Skill you use Mod Tokens on, in combat, it will make a huge difference.
They are fairly easy to use. They are required to increase a tier of a specific Skill in God of War Ragnarok. In the game, there are three tiers for a Skill. These tiers are Gold, Silver, and Bronze. Let’s take a detailed look at how these Mod Tokens work below.
How Do Mod Tokens Work
In God of War Ragnarok, you will be able to graft, upgrade gear, choose from different Skill Trees and abilities, as well as level up and modify them.
These upgrades and modifications will require you to understand the process of how a Mod Token can work as we mentioned before that Mod Tokens could be unlocked by completing Skill Labour challenges that will require you to use a Skill a lot of times in battles.
Therefore, from the three tiers we mentioned, you will have to reach the gold tier in God of War Ragnarok for that particular Skill. Only then will you be able to unlock the Mod Token for that Skill and be able to equip a special effect for that Skill.
Skill Labour
It is important to understand how Skill Labour works if you intend to use Mod Tokens in the game. Whenever you select certain Skills in a Skill Tree, you will be able to see them in the sidebar. There you will be able to see and track the progress you have gained so far using each Labour for the Skill.

You can use the Skill anytime you want but make sure that whenever you use the Skill, it actually does damage to your enemies. Only then will it count towards the Skill Labour total. By completing the Skill Labour progress required for that particular Skill, you will be able to increase the tier of the Skill.
But in order to increase that year, it is important that you have upgraded the weapon in that particular Skill Tree as well.
For instance, if you are doing and progressing in the Skilled Labour for a Skill like Scorched Sweep I for the Blades of Chaos weapon in the technique Skill Tree, then the game will require you to use the Skill 15 times in order to complete the Skill Labour. As soon as you do it, you will be able to enhance and upgrade the Skill. Therefore, the Scorched Sweep I will become Scorched Sweep II.
Skill Tier
However, before you can actually unlock it, you will also have to upgrade to the third level of Blades of Chaos. This would require you to gather resources in God of War Ragnarok. And as we know, collecting resources is not an easy task to end the game. It is also worth noting that you might be able to complete a Skill Labour for a particular Skill before you can actually upgrade your weapon.

The advancements you have to make in each tier will vary from Skill to Skill. There are some Skills that will require you to use 30 times. However, there are also some Skills that do not require much advancement, and you will only need to use them 10 times to unlock their Mod Token.
Enhancing A Skill
By using the Mod Token, you will be able to enhance a Skill directly so that you will be able to use this Skill in your battle in a more efficient way, ultimately making your weapon more powerful. For instance, if you are using Blades of Chaos in God of War Ragnarok, then by completing the Skill level of Hyperion pull in the Skill Tree, you will be able to unlock three different mode tokens.

If you have a Mod Token for this Skill, then you can add it to the Skill and spend some XP for Kratos to get an extra effect for the Skill as well. These effects will vary from Skill to Skill, but for the frozen ascent, you will get Damage Resistance, an increase in Permafrost Charge, and even Bonus Frost in God of War Ragnarok.
Therefore, Mod Tokens are definitely worth getting in the game if you want your character to be more powerful.
Leveling Up Blades Of Chaos And Leviathan Axe
As we mentioned before, you will only be able to unlock the Mod Tokens after you have upgraded your weapons. The Skills you have, start from level 1 to onwards, going all the way up to five.
You will be able to increase the level of Leviathan Axe upgraded by using a resource called Frozen Flame, which is pretty rare in God of War Ragnarok. In order to get it, you will need to finish a lot of main quests and defeat a lot of major bosses in the game.
On the other hand, you have Blades of Chaos which can be upgraded and leveled up by using a certain resource called Chaos Flame. This resource, on the other hand, can be obtained from optional mini-bosses as well. However, most of the time, it will be dropped by the major and mandatory bosses in God of War Ragnarok.
Another way to earn the Chaos flame is to visit Draugr Pits scattered throughout the explorable areas of God of War Ragnarok and defeat powerful and higher leveled enemies you find there. In order to get a full Chaos flame, you need to find 6 fragments of it. After that, you will be able to upgrade the Blades of Chaos.
How To Get Mod Tokens
Getting the Mod Tokens in the game is actually pretty easy. All you are required to do is complete the Skill level of a particular Skill that you are looking to get the Mod Token for. Once you have unlocked the ability to apply the Mod Token, just select the Skill and decide the special effect you want. You will get three Mod Tokens for each Skill. In case you have enough Kratos XP to spend on the Mod Tokens, getting them won’t require you much time.

After you have successfully used the Skill 10 times in combat, you will get a notification that the bronze tier is completed. No, you simply need to beat the process until you get the gold tier in the Skill Labour.
If you are looking to get Mod Tokens in the fastest way possible, then there is a popular method that will allow you to grind Skill tiers in order to mod the Skills you want. The method will require you to go to Niflheim. There you have to complete as many Sparring Arena Challenges as you can.
By completing these challenges, you won’t be able to obtain any hacksilver or XP for Kratos. But what the sparring arena challenges actually do is increase the advancement and progress of a player In Skill tiers. Therefore, in the sparring arena challenges, you will be able to use different abilities on your enemies. Eventually, you will be able to obtain the gold tier for the Skills you want to mod by participating in these arena challenges as much as possible.
How To Apply The Mod Tokens
After you have unlocked the Mod Tokens for a particular Skill, you need to apply them. The primary weapons of Kratos will have three Skill Trees each. After you have unlocked the gold tier for each Skill, you will be able to apply the permanent upgrade called Mod Token.
With the Mod Token, you will get different types of mods that you can apply. the most common types of modes are listed below.
- Damage: By applying the damage mode token, you will be able to increase the amount of damage that Skill will deal during an attack.
- Stun: The stun mode token will determine the amount of stun that will apply to the enemy while using that Skill and increase it.
- Element: The element Mod Token will boost the effectiveness of the elemental effect of that particular attack. For example, by using it on the Leviathan Axe, you will increase Frost, and by using it on the Blades of Chaos, you will increase Fire.
- Protection: This Mod Token will stop Kratos from getting damaged while using the attack. The Mod Token is great, especially for Skills, where the wind-up time is long, like the serpent snare attack.
How To Change
In case you have selected the Mod Token that you didn’t want for a particular Skill, then don’t worry, as you will be able to change it easily. By changing the Mod Tokens, you can select the one that is suitable more for the build you are going for and the playstyle you prefer. You can switch the mode tokens by following the simple steps listed below.
- First, you need to open the Character Menu by pressing the touchpad on your dual-sense controller.
