Instead of featuring one massive open-world area to explore like the Lake of the Nine, God of War Ragnarok gives you multiple massive optional areas — you’ll find more as you progress through the Nine Realms, and the first you’ll encounter is the Bay of Bounty in Svartalfheim. While rowing a raft to reach a dwarf ally that may be able to help, you can detour north to the massive open-ended area. There are collectibles to grab. side-quests to complete, and a massive scripted “dungeon” to fight your way through. You won’t be able to do everything on your first trip to this area, so we’ll split up this list in order of your first visit and your second visit much later in the story.

Don’t miss out on the collectibles for more optional areas. Get 100% collectibles and quests in the Barrens, the Forbidden Sands, the Jungle, the Plains, and the Sinkholes.

Bay of Bounty | All Collectibles & Favors Guide

The Bay of Bounty is a large optional area located north in Svartalfheim. This area becomes available very early in the story but can’t be completed until much later — once you complete your main quest at The Forge, you can return and collect the last remaining collectibles in the Bay of Bounty.

Bay of Bounty | Svartalfheim

Dew of Cooldown: After leaving the city, you’ll reach a boat dock and exit into the Bay of Bounty. Right near the entrance, you’ll find a Yggrasil Dew which improves your runic cooldown timer.

Modvitnir’s Rig | Svartalfheim

Go to this area as part of the “In Service of Asgard” favor, given by Raeb in the tavern.

Legendary Chest: In Modvitnir’s Rig, climb the old wooden tower that gives you a view of the giant crane. Open the chest to find this piece of the seed.

Reward: Muspelheim Seed Half
Finding this begins “The Crucible” favor.

Lore Marker: After swinging across the crane, turn right to find an Ormr enemy below. Drop down to collect the lore marker.

Mining Rig: Climb up the rig, throwing your axe at the markers on the giant crane to move it. Reach the very top of the crane area, defeat the large monster that appears, and smash the gears.

Destroying the rig gives you a special type of ore.

The Watch Tower | Svartalfheim

To reach this area, go to Sindri’s shop in the Bay of Bounty. Climb the wall here to reach the upper level of the watchtower. To your right, there is a large, locked door that requires a key found at the giant geyser in the Bay of Bounty.

Defeat them to begin the “Born From Fire” favor.
Reward: Cursed Empress Handles
Reward: Chaos Spark Weapon Upgrade. Find all 6 to earn the special weapon upgrade.

Odin’s Raven: Circles the trees on the cliffs of the watchtower. It flies fast, so wait somewhere it loops and throw your axe to take it down.

Radsvinn’s Rig | Svartalfheim

Odin’s Raven: Visible from the bottom of the rig. Look on the hanging crane hook!

Nornir Chest: Climb up into the Mining Rig combat area and you’ll find this chest directly left on the ledge overlooking the bay. You need to use the Blades of Chaos and light these up in order.

Swing across, then smash the explosive barrels to climb up to a high vantage point where you can jump down on the marked floor. From this lower level, use the Blades of Chaos on the anchor to raise it up.

For destroying the rig, you’ll get a unique piece of Nidavellir Ore.

Legendary Chest: After destroying the rig, look in the corner to the right. There’s a narrow ledge Kratos can squeeze through and drop a chain. Raise the anchor to the top and swing across, smashing through the wall to reach this hidden Legendary Chest.
