What Is Essence of Hel Used For?
Essence of Hel is used specifically for upgrading a powerful Axe attachment. The attachment in question is the Grip of Healing Harmony. The Grip of Healing Harmony attachment for the Leviathan Axe has the Permafrost Lifesteal ability. When your Permafrost skill gauge is fully charged with this grip equipped, hits with the Leviathan Axe restore health, but increase incoming damage, so it’s a bit of a double-edged sword. There may also be other attachments for the Leviathan Axe that require Essence of Hel, but from our time in the game thus far, this is the only one we’ve found. That’s everything you need to know on God of War Ragnarok Essence of Hel.
