God of War Ragnarok: Best Items and Skills to Buy for Beginners

God of War Ragnarok has some of the best combat mechanics out of the modern AAA games. Here are some beginner skills you can pick up.

The Best skills you can get are Immolation and Permafrost since it supercharges your weapons. These supercharged weapons will do extra damage on hits, and the corresponding skill after getting these will shoot waves and explosions. These skills unlock at Weapon Level 2, making them relatively easy to obtain. Make sure to get them first.

Armor Wise, you have to go with the Fortified Husk Set or the Vidar’s Set since they have decent stats and good attack power. Anything that can increase your attack and defence significantly contributes to your gameplay difficulty, making it more manageable.
