God of War Ragnarök includes many side activities like Norn Chests, in order to make a fortune easily, by exploring peacefully. The buried treasures are quite interesting, with some valuable rewards to be obtained on the way, even if you still have to find the map and then reach the indicated place. We're going to save you time with the treasures of the elves of Alfheim.
How to find buried treasures?
- The first step is to find the corresponding treasure map, which is usually not very difficult. Without the map, even passing over the place where the treasure is buried, you will not detect anything.
- The second step is to open the objective menu, with the touchpad, at least, if you intend to guess for yourself the place where the treasure is hidden. The image and text are usually suggestive enough, to know roughly where to look. You can also help yourself from the general map, since the buried treasures are listed in the corresponding sub-areas.
- Once in the right area, finding the treasure is usually easy, since a golden light will shine intermittently.
- Treasures usually contain different crafting components, as well as an enchantment for the Amulet of Yggdrasil.
Alfheim
There are two treasures to discover in this realm, but they are in optional areas inaccessible during your first visit. The first can be researched after you finish visiting the area with Tyr. The second asks to have visited Vanaheim and to be accompanied by Freya . So we have to move forward in the story.
vulture's gold
The map is obtained near a corpse, on the way entering the Canyon, after having accompanied Tyr to the portal, you should not miss it.
As the clue tells you, the map is inside a gigantic dragon's skull, resting in the sand of the Scorched Lands option area to the north. You'll probably need to stop the sandstorm to access the treasure. A crow sits just above, by the way.
forgotten tower
You must access the Forbidden Sands with the help of Freya to find the second treasure. Start by going to the archives of the light elves, to the east of the area. The map is stowed inside, but be prepared for a big boss fight against the Tested to get out.
The treasure is not buried very far, but you must first stop the second sandstorm to be able to access it. Once this is done, climb the attachment points to reach the terrace in front of the ruins of the tower. A group of awkward elves are waiting for you there, before you can rummage through the sand in search of your reward.
The third boss in God of War Ragnarok is a fairly straightforward centaur, despite the element of surprise and the fact that your equipment leaves something to be desired. Here's a written strategy guide with tips and tricks for defeating it on maximum difficulty.
