I promised I'd do it in the chat, so.
Forgot to mention those in my last CRT.
To start it off, the suggestions in this thread should probably also be applied. I corrected some, though.
1. Resistance to Petrification/Transmutation
Activating the Rage of the Titans power-boost immediately breaks Kratos out of petrification, which'd fall under this.
I will find a video of this later if I can.
2. Resistance to Power Nullification.
1. At the end of GOW 1, Ares nullifies all of Kratos's magics and powers. Since Power of Hope Kratos is able to resist hax from all the other Olympian gods in the series, and Zeus has the same power, he'd have Resistance to Power Null.
2. At the end of GoW 3, Fear Zeus destroys Kratos's weapons and nulls his magic. However, after Kratos gains the Power of Hope, he gets his blades back. This would constitute as a resistance to Zeus's own power.
3. Also at the end of GOW 3,Kratos tries to kill himself with the Blade of Olympus and fails. Since the Blade of Olympus is capable of draining powers and abilities, this would constitute as a resistance.
3. Can hit Non-Corporeal beings
There are two instances of Kratos hitting souls/ghosts on the series:
1. On Chains of Olympus, Kratos shows the ability to snap the necks of disembodied souls
2. At the end of GOW 3, Kratos uses the Blade of Olympus to stab himself, but Athena, who had died before and become non-corporeal, thought Kratos was going to kill her and showed a lot of fear of the Blade of Olympus, even going as far as to say "You dare strike me down again?". This highly implies it can kill Non-Corporeal beings.
4. [Better] Resistance to Mind/Memory Manipulation
In the God of War I novel, Kratos falls to the Lethe River, which, exactly like in myth, erases the person's brain contents from existence, leaving them an insane husk with no past, no purpose, nothing at all:
"There is no hope for this world, but to the next, within the borders of the powerful River Styx, lies the river Lethe. A pit of dark water that erases a person's memory from existence, leaving nothing but a shadow behind. The spirit wanders forever, with no house, no name. Nothing. No past.
Kratos reaches the river, which erases all that he has ever been. However, Athena temporarily nullifies the river's powers to bring Kratos back to the overworld.
The power of the Lethe River scales to Kratos with the Power of Hope, since he can resist every hax in the verse that is not from the Primordials (since that'd be a NLF). It is stated by the God of War 1 summary that Pandora's Box is the most powerful weapon in the God of War universe, but that it pales even compared to the Power of Hope, which is what Kratos has.
So Kratos can definitely resist this power, which is extremely good Mind/Memory Manipulation, given its underworld-wide area of effect. That means an uncountable nunber of souls.
EDIT: Here is the calculation for said resistance, with a few explanations thrown in
5. Time Travel
At the end of God of War 2, Kratos shows the ability to take all the Titans to the future right before they get BFR'd. This one is pretty clear cut.
