All Kvasir poem locations in God of War: Ragnarök
Players who want to reach 100% God of War Ragnarok you will have to find, among other things, all the Poems of Kvasir. There are 14 scattered throughout the game, and collecting them all will require players to reach the later stages of God of War Ragnarok. These poems are considered artifacts and are therefore required to achieve 100% completion. Some players may also recognize them as references to other Playstation games, such as The Ghost of Tsushima and the horizon series
None of Kvasir’s poems can be missed; so players don’t have to worry about collecting them until they beat the game if they want to. After finding a poem, players can safely sell them to Brok and Sindri for some experience, as they still count towards the achievement and are automatically added to the codex. Players can start searching for these artifacts as soon as they arrive in the realm of Svartalfheim, but they will need to complete most of the game to find them all, so readers should be warned that this guide may contain some spoilers.
