God of War: Ragnarok Discussion Thread

Hercules and deimos seem about right
They only have resistance to that shit, not that they have those abilities in hand.

Why tho? Kratos gets his powers from his divine lineage, which is what it means to be a demigod. I don't see why this should be unique to him
Kratos did it while not even being a Demigod, he did it when he was completely depowered and made human, he didn't even have his red tattoo on him.

We don't know whether or not it's a general ability or something innate to him, like his supernatural rage or reactive evolution. Just coming from a divine origin isn't enough since those powers vary wildly in their manifestations.

I mean he's always been a Demigod lol. He just gave up his Gear, and Magic. If that was the case we might as well give the regular humans of GOW Soul Hax and NPI

Maybe, but considering all of the Greek Deities have NPI, is it that much a stretch? We did accept the UES, after all.

Even Atreus should have NPI as he can physically hit Wights which are pure magic.

He gave up his ashes and tattoo as well. Kratos is just built different.

UES doesn't cover hax like that. Hax is a completely different ballgame. UES mostly exists to scale magic-related stuff to AP and durability and other offensive capabilities.

He does have NPI.

He was a Demigod before he had his ashes and Tattoo. He was never fully human

Yeah ik, just saying that this is a similar situation. There's multiple instances of Physical NPI in GOW, just like there's multiple instances of Magic = AP in GOW.

Kratos killing Souls

Atreus mentioning him and Kratos fight souls all the time.

Atreus harming Wisps and Wights with melee attacks.

The Titans fighting the Primordials which are all type 1 abstracts
He does have NPI
Oh, he must have gotten updated finally lol

He's depowered even worse in the Elysium Fields where Persephone says he has to strip all of his powers to be able to see his daughter again.

Most of it is just related to Kratos and people who are actual Gods.

It's still kinda weird to see that Norse Kratos is technically an Immortal Demigod with God-level strength, but is acknowledged as a full-blooded God in Norse Lands (Even Cory calls him a God flat-out and that he's immortal) and even Atreus has inherited a bunch of Kratos' powers like regeneration and Spartan Rage, and some new ones for his own.
 
Actually, do all the gods have Non-Physical Interaction on the level of concepts? It seems prolific enough that it might just be a general trait.

No, only Kratos, Zeus and Athena have it as a method of Type 1 AFAIK. Kratos has an extremely limited version of it, in the form of Absorption.

Cronos and Helios are kinda whatever.

I mean, there's not much of an innate difference between the Titans in physical nature and we see them being capable of fighting Primordials. Not to mention the unlikelihood of the Olympians being unable to harm the Primordials of all people.
 
What makes sense is story should be given more importance, what Planck says is right.
If a god was pitted against primordial under some circumstance, then I doubt that the god would be incapable of atleast interacting with said Primordial.
At best it'd just qualify as some kind of NPI if not outright manipulating the concept.

Worse than when he was general? Not sure on that one. I always assumed he went back to that level, as he never originally had any powers at that level.

Yes, but most of Kratos powers have been inherited from Zeus, and Most of his from Cronos. Atreus inherited his new ones from his Giant side. One trait they all have, is Regeneration to be specific, and that's something, almost everyone in the series has shown

He was worse off than general level, yeah, because he doesn't even have the tattoo anymore.

His transformation powers are not Giant-related, they're 100% Greek-related, as Angrboda herself states.

It's not a trait everyone has shown as an innate trait. Only Ares, Zeus, Kratos, Cronos, Gaia, Thanatos and Helios have shown. That's... not a lot.

Just cuz he ain't got the tat? Lol maybe that was more symbolic?

When does Angrboda say this? I believe it of course, as all generations of the Greek gods could shapeshift.

Thanatos daughter and Hades too. Not a lot at all. U right.

No evidence at all that Regen is a standard in the physiology of the Greek Deities lol
