Description[]
Gift of Apollo is a Heavy Runic Attack for the Blades of Chaos, which can be activated by pressing +

During this period, the Blades' regular attacks will allow Kratos to regenerate small amounts of Health. Upgrades increase the duration and effects of the attack, as well as increase Kratos' attacking speed.
Acquisition[]
Gift of Apollo is obtained from a Realm Tear found in Ivaldi's Workshop, in Niflheim. To open this Realm Tear, Kratos requires 10,000 Mist Echoes and an Anchor of Fog. Be prepared for an ambush by three ogres.

Trivia[]
- Although Gift of Apollo doesn't return as a Runic Attack in God of War Ragnarök, it has been repurposed into the Furious Immolation skill for the Blades.
- While Furious Immolation increased the rate of Immolation gain in God of War (2018), in God of War Ragnarök it instead allows the blades to mimic the effects of Gift of Apollo, by pressing
+
together when the Immolation gauge is full.
- The only difference is that the Blades' attacks during Furious Immolation now generate extra Rage instead of Health. As such, the Blades don't have green flames during this state.
