Melinoë is at home with weapons, but what about the blades of crafting? Gathering Tools are a key part of Hades 2, as they unlock resources your goddess will need to fight Chronos. Let’s talk about Tools, how to get them, and what they do.
Hades 2 – 17 HUGE Mistakes to Avoid & All the OP Unlocks You Need Early – Aspect Guide & Make the Game Easy!
There are currently four Gathering Tools in the Early Access build of Hades 2, including a Pick, a Tablet, a Spade, and a Fishing Rod. Melinoë can hold one of these at a time, and each has a different use. To get them in the first place, though, you'll need to get the Night's Craftwork Incantation and then craft the Tools individually at the Silver Pool, where you collect Nocturnal Arms.
Night's Craftwork is an Incantation that essentially serves as a tutorial for the mechanic early in the game. It only costs one Moly, a flower from the game's first region, so don't expect it to be a huge journey. Once you're done, you can unlock and equip Tools in the same room where you swap Nocturnal Arms, the room right before you start a new run.
Below are the costs to unlock and use each Tool in Hades 2.
