How to Get All Weapon Aspects in Hades 2

As a seasoned veteran of the Underworld, I’ve battled my fair share of souls and wielded countless weapons in Hades 2. The recent Olympic Update has filled the Crossroads with an array of weapon slots, but the game still promises a plethora of content yet to come.

In the sequel titled “Hades 2“, the character Melnoë is equipped with a collection of six unique tools to accomplish her mission. Although the fundamental versions of these weapons provide numerous combinations when combined with the diverse divine benefits, there’s even more for gamers to discover as they progress through key stages in the game. Similar to its precursor, Hades 2 incorporates a comprehensive weapon enhancement system, referred to as Aspects.

In Hades 2, the Weapon Aspects are unique transformations of the Nighttime Weapons, which were previously used by characters other than Melinoë. These Aspects provide completely distinct effects that can significantly change their behavior during gameplay. This tutorial will walk you through the steps to unlock each weapon and uncover all the Aspects of the Nighttime Arms in Hades 2.

The game “Hades 2” is currently in an Early Access phase. This implies that significant parts of the game may undergo alterations prior to its final 1.0 release. Should any substantial modifications or additions occur regarding the method of unlocking and unveiling the Nocturnal Arms and their Aspects, this guide will be updated accordingly.

How to Unlock All Weapons in Hades 2

How to Get All Weapon Aspects in Hades 2

In the game “Hades 2”, there are five fundamental weapons within the collection known as Nocturnal Arms. To access these weapons, follow these recipes at the Silver Pool:

Nocturnal Armament	Unlock Recipe
Witch’s Staff	Available by default at the start of Hades 2
Sister Blades	SIlver x1
Moonstone Axe	Silver x15
Umbral Flames	Silver x3 Cinder x3
Argent Skull	Glassrock x2 Bronze x1 Argent Skull is not available immediately. Progress through the main story, use each of the other weapons. Eventually, it will be revealed in the Silver Pool.
Black Coat	Cinder x2 Adamant x2 Make sure to download the new Olympic update, then collect Adamant from Mount Olympus. Craft the Black Coat at the Nocturnal Arms area in the Crossroads.

How to Reveal Weapon Aspects in Hades 2

After a player has acquired every Nocturnal Arm, they’re all set to initiate the procedure of unveiling all Weapon Traits in Hades 2. Here’s how to accomplish this mission:

Step 1: Attempt a run with each weapon. You do not need to complete a run, simply use each weapon in a run. While it has not been confirmed, it may be wise to attempt to beat Hecate with each weapon, but it does not appear to be necessary, as she was not defeated with the Umbral Flames for this guide, and the process worked.
Step 2: With all weapons unlocked and used for a run, the next time you face and defeat Hecate, she will unlock an Incantation. This Incantation, known as ‘Aspect of Night and Darkness,’ will now be available at the Cauldron.
Head to the Cauldron once you return to the Crossroads. Complete the Incantation, then head to the Silver Pool at the Training Grounds to see the complete list of Weapon Aspects.

Incantation Name	Recipe
Aspect of Night and Darkness	Bronze x5 Nightshade x1

How to Upgrade Weapons in Hades 2

In Hades 2, you can enhance every weapon, including all Aspects. To do this, navigate to the Silver Pool located in the Training Grounds once the Aspects have been unveiled. Upon approaching the pool, look for a new menu option signified by a heart. Utilizing this option will showcase the upgrade system. Each Aspect is presented here, along with the conditions necessary to level them up.

Aspects of Melinoë will require basic materials, like Silver and Psyche, for upgrading. This is true regardless of which weapon you pick.
The Aspects that belonged to other characters throughout history will require more rare and unusual materials. Players will notice that these Aspects require Nightmare, and extremely rare material that can only be acquired at the Altar behind the Silver Pool.

Each weapon has five ranks of upgrades, each of which improves a specific portion of a weapon’s skill. These upgrades can help immensely, especially when amplified by the boons offered by the gods.
