- Vengeful Sickle I is one of the best skills to unlock for Kratos’ Axe. This skill will multiply the damage done to the foes by giving them multiple hits in a single throw of the axe.
- The second best skill for the axe is Glacial Rake. This skill is effective in both medium as well as close range. When you hold R1 on your controller, Kratos will be dragging his Leviathan axe on the ground to throw ice shards forward dealing frost damage to the enemies.
- The next best skill to unlock is Extinguish Flames. When you encounter a burning enemy, only then you can realize the worth of this skill as it deals high bonus damage to them. This is a passive skill that helps you eliminate foes more effectively.
2) Blades of Chaos
- Blazing Explosion I is one of the best skills that can be equipped on Kratos’ blades. As the name suggests, using this ability rightly will cause explosive damage to your enemy, thereby dealing damage to the nearby enemies also. This skill is best used when fighting a group of enemies.
- The second best skill for Blades of Chaos is Rushing Chaos. Rushing Chaos helps in reaching out to the enemies in a pretty fast way. Utilizing this skill is quite helpful when you are surrounded by a lot of foes. To use it, just start sprinting and press the R1 button to leap forward and deal multiple hits to your enemy.
- Vaporize Frost is another best skill for the Blades of Chaos that will definitely come in handy. When you encounter a frosted enemy, you can deal quite a high damage using this skill. That said, you can combine it with Glacial Rake to make a powerful combo.
- Chaotic Rampage I is another best skill for beginners to unlock for Blades of Chaos. You must equip this skill and hold the R1 button. This will inflict an array of damage on the enemy.
