The Amulet of Yggdrasil is one of the more potent pieces of equipment. Though it has many broken slots at the beginning, you can fix them by earning Jewel of Yggdrasil (check here for all their locations). It allows for equipping different Enchantments that provide bonuses to your stats and unique perks.
While some have stat requirements for their perks, others necessitate equipping Enchantments in the same set. For example, using three Enchantments in the Midgard’s Honor set causes the damage of Kratos’ ranged attacks and abilities to increase based on his Cooldown.
