If players are looking to earn some extra Hacksilver to craft gear or upgrades in God of War: Ragnarök, they should consider searching for all of the Family Crests in Vanaheim. Unlike Frozen Flames or Chaos Flames, these crests hold no worth to Kratos or his equipment. On the other hand, families of the realms see such Artifacts as highly valuable treasures. As a result, Brok and Sindri are more than willing to pay players handsomely for finding these rarities hidden throughout the realm. Accordingly, collecting all the Family Crests in God of War: Ragnarök is an excellent way to make some quick coin.

As mentioned above, all of the Family Crests are located within Vanaheim in God of War: Ragnarök, meaning Kratos does not need to visit other realms to complete their crest set. The family heirlooms can be found in any order in Noatun's Garden, River Delta, Freyr's Camp, The Veiled Passage, and the Vanir Shrine. To find a Family Crest, look on the ground for a small item node glowing with a bright purple hue. Interacting with these nodes will cause Kratos to pick up the crest as Freya provides some backstory to its owner.
