God of War Ragnarok: How to get Kratos’ Undying Pyres Armor set

sportskeeda.com:

In God of War Ragnarok, the Undying Pyres Armor set is awarded to those who persevere in three extreme challenges. The Armor set, on top of being great equipment for survivability, also serves as a badge of honor.

To get the full set, Kratos needs to complete three of the six Muspelheim trials in a sidequest called The Crucible. These trials will test Kratos’ might and wit. However, players need to be able to reach those arenas in the first place, which also requires some work.

Unlike other armor sets, the Undying Pyres set in God of War Ragnarok does not require any materials to be crafted. It is received directly as a reward from the trials but can be upgraded with materials.

The first seed can be acquired fairly early on. The sidequest or favor known as “In service of Asgard” requires destroying some mining rigs in Svartalfheim. One of the mining rigs that must be destroyed is named Modvitnir’s Rig.

The first half of the seed can be found in a chest near this rig atop a wall. This side quest also rewards the player with Nidavellir armor set, which is a great find early on.

The second half can be found a bit late in the game, after completing the main quest, “Forging Destiny.” Players need to head down to Dragon beach and use the Draupnir spear to access a high place that leads to a chest containing the second half of the Muspelheim seed.

The Muspelheim trials in God of War Ragnarok test the player’s skill and wit. Completing three of the six trials rewards the player with the Undying Pyres armor set.

The Shoulder Guard of Undying Pyres is received upon completing the “Weapon Mastery” trial. This involves defeating 16 enemies in under 180 seconds. Some of these enemies come in waves and some of them can be shielded.
