To transmogrify your weapons in God of War Ragnarök, follow these steps: Firstly, you need to have the right weapon, which is the Leviathan Axe or Atreus’ Bow. Then, look for the “Rune” symbol on your weapon’s interface, and press the appropriate button (it’s usually the Options button). A menu will pop up showing different runes that can be applied to your weapon.

Kratos, a warrior capable of commanding armies, is hardly a deity of fashion sense. If you’ve been following along, you’ll have caught glimpses of some impressive-looking armor units. The few that remain, however, are truly unattractive – with perfect statistics and benefits, it’s as if they were designed with meticulous care. With this feature, you’re able to maintain the stats of a single armor set while enjoying the aesthetic appeal of an entirely different design.

The catch is that you cannot enter the transmog function until you’re within the last stretch of the game. Initially, one must continually refine the quality of a given substance until it reaches its optimal state, comparable to the peak condition of the finest armour. Despite grinding, you won’t find the necessary resources to upgrade equipment to rank 9 until much later in the game.

The instant your armor reaches level 9, navigate to the inventory menu, select the desired piece from the equipment tab, then press square to initiate the customization process. To edit your look, you’ll find a comprehensive inventory of all armor items currently in your possession. Units of armor with varied appearances rely on their level of progression, as the visual design evolves with each rank-up. Can you afford to overlook that? No need to burn through your sources or waste precious in-game currency.

Apply the visible impact of the armor currently in your inventory. You’re keen on the health-boosting benefits of Nidavellir’s Best Plate, but dislike that it obscures Kratos’ impressive deltoid definition. While you have a soft spot for the rugged appearance of Mani’s Pauldron of Knowledge, you’re not particularly enthusiastic about its runic statistics, which led to your decision to part with it. To achieve a Plackart appearance resembling a Pauldron, consider reacquiring the Pauldron itself.

For fashion-conscious players, consider levelling up your chest armour to a minimum of rank nine before embarking on the game’s final mission. Without giving away any secrets, players will have immediate access to the latest and greatest armor set as soon as they start playing.
