This page contains all Blades of Chaos Pommels in God of War (2018, PS4) including a showcase with images. Blades Pommels are an attachment to your second weapon, the Blades of Chaos, and increase certain stats. More than that, they also add unique passive perks that can change the flow of combat. Each pommel visually changes the design of your blades of chaos. Knowing what blade pommels are in the game and what abilities they unlock can help you prepare and strategize for difficult encounters.
The blades of Chaos are automatically unlocked during the story and cannot be missed.
Blade Pommels are obtained from quests, from certain chests, bosses, and mostly through crafting. All the epic ones (the best in the game) are from completion-based tasks later in the game. This list is in order of rarity.
