On Mount Olympus, these mounds will perpetually hold Olive Branches. Newcomers should search for tiny patches of undisturbed soil, glimmering faintly with a gentle light. Ensure to listen out for an audio signal indicating Melinoe’s recognition of any resources within the chamber, as seed mounds are often overlooked compared to other rewards.

How to Reach Mount Olympus:

For newcomers who are uncertain about ascending to Mount Olympus , it’s necessary to advance through the early stages of Hades 2, eventually uncovering the ‘Unraveling a Fateful Bond‘ spell at the Cauldron. This will grant you the ability to start surface runs whenever you choose. Mount Olympus is the third region on the surface, following the City of Ephyra and the Rift of Thessaly.

After grabbing some Olive Branches from Mount Olympus, it’s time for me, the gamer, to head back to the garden at the Crossroads. Each of these Olive Trees I plant will take approximately 24 interactions with the game before they sprout fully. Once grown, each tree will reward me with a single Olive that I can offer to Melinoe.

In the game, many players often view finishing Encounters as clearing every room they come across during a playthrough. While this is accurate, it’s essential to note that there are alternative methods to mark Encounters in the Cauldron or Garden. Engaging in unique character interactions, like visiting the Hot Springs or Fishing spots, will consume time. Keep an eye on each character at the Crossroads to check their availability for these encounters. Additionally, participating in Chaos Trials at the Pitch-Black Stone will also pass time.
