Just like the previous game, God of War Ragnarok provides players a great deal of things to do beyond the main story. While a lot of Favors involve smaller stories, there are some Favors that simply involve finding or collecting particular creatures or objects across the Realms.
A good example of this is the Lost Lindwyrm Favor which requires God of War Ragnarok players to find and capture all six of the Lindwyrms that have escaped from Yggdrasil. While Lindwyrms can only be found in two Realms, they can still be tricky to find. This guide will show players where all the Lindwyrms can be found.
How to Find the Lindwyrms
After picking up the Favor from Ratatoskr, God of War Ragnarok players will receive a trap that they can use to catch Lindwyrms. One important thing that players should know is that Lindwyrms can only be found in Vanaheim and Svartalfheim. As players search these two realms for the Lindwyrms they may be expecting to see large creatures roaming around that they can capture.
This is not the case, and instead God of War Ragnarok players should be on the lookout for smaller Yggdrasil Rifts. Players will not need to fight the Lindwyrms to capture them. They simply need to interact with the rift, and they will be able to capture the Lindwyrm.
Where to Find the Lindwyrms in Vanaheim
There are two Lindwyrms located in Vanaheim. Both of them are located in the Crater. The only way for players to access this area is by completing the Scent of Survival Favor which is obtainable after completing Creatures of Prophecy. As players explore the Crater they will eventually come across a blacksmith shop. On one of the nearby ledges is the first rift that contains a Lindwyrm.
The second rift is located in the open area where God of War Ragnarok players fight a dragon during the For Vanaheim Favor. The rift is off in a corner, but it isn't too difficult to spot.
Where to Find the Lindwyrm in The Applecore
The remaining four Lindwyrms are scattered across Svartalfheim. One of them is located in The Applecore. In order to get to the Applecore, God of War Ragnarok players will need to use the platform located at the edge of the Aurvangar Wetlands to gradually make their way back. The rift is deep in the Applecore and is only accessible by using the Draupnir Spear.
Where to Find the Lindwyrm in the Forge
The next Lindwyrm can be found in the Forge, which is the area where players first got the Draupnir Spear. In the area that serves as a tutorial for using the Draupnir Spear to navigate the terrain, there will be a rift that players can interact with to capture another Lindwyrm.
Where to Find the Lindwyrm in Alberich Hollow
The fifth Lindwyrm is located in Alberich Hollow. There are a lot of enemies in this area, so God of War Ragnarok players will want to clear it out before attempting to reach the rift and capture the Lindwyrm that lurks within.
Where to Find the Lindwyrm on Alberich Island
North of Alberich Hollow is a spot where players can dock the boat. From there, they will need to find a way onto the wood platform where the last rift is located. Upon capturing all six Lindwyrms, players will get a Gale Flame and will be able to return the Lindwyrms to Ratatoskr at Sindri's House.
