On this page of our God of War Ragnarok guide, you can find the walkthrough for the Born From Fire Favour. The goal here is to close Draugr Holes, and at each hole, you'll face one of The Hateful.
Rewards for the favor
- Kratos XP: 4500
- Companion XP: 1125
- Sovereign Coals
- Chaos Spark
Unlocking the favor
The Born From Fire Favour is activated once you encounter any of the 6 Draugr Holes. Each closing requires you to defeat The Hateful - after the enemy is dealt with, the Draugr Hole is closed and you're in the clear.
Close the Draugr holes
As soon as you approach any Draugr Hole, The Hateful enemy will jump out of it. Sometimes, you face the main opponent one-on-one, but sometimes, there will be helpers emerging from the hole. Note the colour of The Hateful's health bar. If its purple, it means that the enemy is too strong for you. This means you have to revisit the area once you develop Kratos and get better equipment and runic attacks.
The Draugr Holes are found in the following locations:
- The Watchtower in Svartalfheim;
- The Applecore in Svartalfheim;
- The Barrens in Alfheim;
- The Abandoned Village in Vanaheim;
- Lake of Nine in Midgard;
- The Plains in Vanaheim.
Each closed hole leaves behind valuable components, such as Chaos Spark. These are used to upgrade your weapons. Once all 6 holes are closed, the task is completed.
