As I’ve been playing Hades 2, I’ve run into so many different gods and characters while trying to complete runs. These encounters are how you get Boons, which are basically upgrades for Melinoe’s abilities – they can change things up in a lot of cool ways! Figuring out which Boons work well together is a huge part of success in Hades 2, and I’m really excited about this guide. It’s going to help me (and hopefully you!) decide which Boons to focus on, because it has a complete list of everything available.
Almost all Boons in Hades 2 have four different rarities – Common, Rare, Epic, and Heroic – and can be upgraded during a run to increase their power. As you’d probably guess, a Boon becomes stronger when it’s rarer or at a higher level. Throughout this guide, we generally show the stats for Boons at their base level (Common and Level 1). Keep in mind that these stats will get better as you find Boons with higher rarities and levels.
