God of War Ragnarok features revamped combat over the predecessor, God of War (2018). In addition, certain elements make a return, such as the runic system. Runes once again played a vital role in Kratos’s arsenal and modified the behavior of his weapons.
This guide will focus on the Hades Retribution light runic attack for the Blades of Chaos.
Note: Minor spoilers for God of War Ragnarok will follow. Reader discretion is advised.
Hades Retribution can be easily obtained for Kratos in Alfheim.
The rune is described as follows in the game:
This particular light rune specializes in dealing with one enemy at a time. It is very effective against bosses as a result.
Hades Retribution cannot stun the enemy, however, it can deal a significant amount of burn damage.
Each upgrade of the rune is detailed as follows:
These are unique abilities that can be equipped on Kratos’ arsenal of weapons. Each rune is unique and imbues a certain effect on the weapon. For example, certain runes can simply augment the physical damage dealt by Kratos, while other runes can imbue the weapon with a certain element.
Each rune can be improved upon on three levels to increase their effectiveness, and Kratos can only equip two runes at a time on each weapon - one heavy rune and one small rune.
These runes could easily break the game's balance, hence the game compensates for this by attaching a rather long cooldown between each successive use.
God of War Ragnarok was developed by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4 Pro, and PlayStation 5.
God of War Ragnarok was released on November 9, 2022, worldwide.
