In-fact that is exactly how Kratos beat the Colossus of Rhodes by using the sword.
Zeus had transferred some of Kratos' godly powers into the Colossus, Kratos then drained his portion into the blade, and then went into the Colossus and at each major junction he drained back the Godly power Zeus had tranferred into it.
That's how the sword even came to hold all of his Godly power, seeing as he starts out God of War 2 by having some unknown portion of it drained out of him by Zeus.
Nope dude. Blade of Olympus DOES NOT DRAIN ANY POWERS ONLY TO A HOLDER!!!!!
From what I saw kratos break apart the Colossus of Rhodes wood that had godlike powers with the Blade of Olympus. Nothing more and nothing less than that
Blade of Olympus has not feat that says it can drain powers..
Nightime Jackie could whoop Kratos....he could go cheap and rip the spartan by using the darkness inside him....or trap him in a shadow which is basically an entrance to the "Darkness realm"...problem with Jackie is that his fights are poorly written most of the times.....since he doesnt suffer from cis here he could just spam Kratos with huge monsters and darklings till he tires out......once he created 1 000,000 + darklings...
Delicate choice of words I see, but irrelevant how you wish to interpret it. Those are the facts.
That is exactly how it was told in the story; the Blade held all of his power as the God of War. It did so by draining the other portion within the Colossus. Hence why he didn't simply smash each bit to pieces, he could have easily done that if he was simply taking it down structurally. Instead, he broke off chain links that surrounded the structure, to open up a large slot that he then inserted his sword into, and THEN he smashed through it once he drained it dry.
You simply didn't remember a crucial detail, that's ok, but don't keep on this subject as if you were correct. By the way, they were not wood constructs either, your memory fails you again.
Actually, I hope you know, that even the Blades of Chaos are explained to drain enemies. That's how the green, red, and blue orbs are explained in the novel. The blades drain those out of enemies, and it flows into Kratos' bloodstream from the chains fixed to his wrist bones.

And if you still believe the sword can drain people powers. Then you should have no problem explained HOW IN THE WORLD does Zeus still had lighting powers after got stab right into chest in god of war 3? kratos fought with zeus in god of war 3 in gaia body. kratos stab zeus right into his chest. Then later on Zeus turn into a dark ghost form. And he surprise kratos with huge lighting blast. destroy all kratos weapons. If the blade does indeed drain powers of opponents. Then Zeus should had none of his powers. BUT HE DID
Therefore the blade does not drain opponent’s powers
Jesus Christ, two things first. Learn how to properly reply to a quote. You put your down responses within the quote. Secondly, learn how to edit your post. There was no need to continue your tangent with two more, insignificantly sized posts when you had 15 minutes to edit it into your prior one.
Assume, WHAT? What basic aspect of the story did you not follow?
Was the Colossus re-animated with Kratos' stolen power? Yes.
Did the Blade end up having all of Kratos' Godly power? Yes.
The above are facts. Watch a walkthrough of the story again or something, but just try to quickly play out the logic yourself here. Kratos had only a portion of his powers. Colossus had another portion of his powers. The Blade ended up housing ALL of his God powers. Do the math. derp.
What kind of fool are you? You insist on your incomplete recollection after I gave you a complete descriptive account of it? Lol.
Here's a video then, describing exactly as I said:
8:30-8:52. Kratos breaks the chains around the construct, opening up a slot that the blade neatly fit into, drained the godly power of the construct as seen by it no longer being blue, and then destroys the rest of it physically.
I'm glad you kept this going. I was escalating it slowly just to get an understanding of how stubbornly you would insist on being right inspite of being ignorant. I'll give you another source since you were clearly not very quick on the uptake with a basic part of the story in the game.
Here, in plain black and white from the God of War 2 novel.
From Chapter 3:
"The Eagle landed on the shoulder of Colossus and immediately transferred the shimmering energy-the energy stolen from Kratos!-to the statue. Kratos shivered and fought, but the web of scintillant electricity enshrouding him could not be shaken off. In a fury, he saw the statue begin to stir as his energy invigorated it."
Then a few chapters later when he went inside the Colossus it describes him going through each of the constructs/energy nodes and draining them.
"Four more circuits of the statue's interior brought him to another gear-shaft nexus. Again the Blade Of Olympus drank deeply."
If you want even more detail, I can ask Demonic Phoenix for longer quotes since he has the full book on him right now. All the weapons in God of War at the very least have some leeching ability, since health, mana, and red orbs (more or less described as sacrificial blood energy of some such for weapons) are canon, The Blade of Olympus on top of that can drain outright power sources too.
You were completely, f,ucking, wrong. You're an ignorant c,unt who had no idea what he was talking about yet insisted on sticking to his guns, even after being told several times why your belief was inaccurate. I despise this more than anything else on a forum. In the future, when you're uncertain of details as you were here, do not so blatantly make a categorical statement without knowing the facts. Consider the possibility that you may be completely wrong, and word your statements to reflect such a situation.
As for your post about Zeus. I'm kind of puzzled. Is this supposed to be some big and irrefutable, final chip for your stance here? The Blade simply couldn't drain Zeus. As simple an explanation as needed. The Blade couldn't even simply kill Zeus in a straightforward manner either. Through your logic, using Zeus as a measuring stick for the Blade, then you must conclude that the Blade wasn't made to kill either.
But it does not change the fact i was on the something.. If Zeus still had some of his lighting power. then that a proof the blade cant not drain other people power.
that a solid poof. No need be sorry but next time do not ever use some bad Lagrange kiddo )
HeyCosmicComet I do see what emtyheart coming from. And I see what you coming from as well and I do agree Kratos use the blade of Olympus to drain his godlike power from colossus. Base on your proof you lay out here, seem a perfect statement.
However from what I see what emptyheart was trying to say, was like The Blade of Olympus never shown it can directly drain your powers, in otherwords it cannot steal your powers.
Example: In this fight. Let say kratos stab Jackie right into his chest. Jackie would not lose the power of the darkness as the blade of Olympus would not drain the darkness out of him…..
. Your proof does seem show what you talking about, but like emptyheart was trying say and base your Evidence. It does not shown that it can directly drain your powers since Zeus never lost his power after got stab by the blade.
