Finding all of Odin’s ravens in God Of War Ragnarök will unlock some very useful upgrades for Kratos.
God Of War Ragnarök is full of side quests and collectables, such as hidden treasure maps, that’ll reward you with some sweet loot to help in your Nordic adventure.
Like the 2018 reboot, you’ll be able to track down several ravens hidden throughout the Nine Realms, which will later unlock unique armour sets and powerful runic attacks for Kratos.
It can be difficult to find some of these ravens, but once you do, make sure to throw your Leviathan Axe at them. Although you’ll find the third weapon you get later in the game, or Atreus’ bow, has a slightly longer range.
Once you’ve destroyed at least six ravens, you can make your way to the Raven Tree in Nilfheim to start unlocking the valuable rewards. Keep in mind that the more ravens you track down, the better the rewards you’ll get.

Goddess Falls (x1)
Found during the Reckoning quest. This raven is visible as soon as you arrive at Goddess Falls, flying in circles in the sky. However, it’s too high to hit from the ground, so you’ll need to climb up the wall, grapple over the waterfall, and climb up another wall to finally be able to hit it.
Eastern Barri Woods (x1)
