Marble in Hades 2 is just one of those resources that Melinoe will need to defeat Chronos. From the extensive list of items available, Marble is probably the most difficult to come by. You must complete all the biomes and reach Tartarus to get this resource. But by no means should you think that Marble is scattered all over this region for you to pick up. Obtaining it is a different task in itself. To help you through it, here’s our Hades 2 guide that explains where and how to gather Marble.
How to Get Marble in Hades 2
To find Marble, you must enter the Tartarus biome by completing Erebus, Oceanus, and the Fields of the Mourning biomes. To reach Tartarus, you must beat the Infernal Cerberus boss fight in the Fields of the Mourning. Once in Tartarus, explore and look out for white busts/sculptures. These white busts can be destroyed to obtain Marble in Hades 2.
Make sure you carry a Crescent Pick alongside you while looking for Marble. As those white statues can only be destroyed using this Gathering Tool. As for now, the location of the statues is completely random, so there is no fixed spot where you can farm it.
Since the use of Marble in Hades 2 is limited, you may not need it frequently. However, if you still need it, you can start over, reach Tartarus, break white busts, and obtain it.
How to Use Marble in Hades 2
Like most resources, Marble is used to brew incantations at the Concoct. For example, you can make the Golden Lifespring Incantation using 3 Marbles and 3 Shaderoots. This Incantation creates a resting point at Tartarus that you can use to restore health. Similarly, you can craft the Greater Favor of Gaia Incantation using 2 Marbles, 2 Bronze, and 4 Iron. With this, you can upgrade Gathering Tools at Silver Lake.
Aside from Incantations, Marble is also used to upgrade the Boatman Arcana Card. Know that you need to unlock the Consecration of Ashes Incantation to upgrade your Arcana Cards.
Now that you know how to obtain and make proper use of Marble in Hades 2, why don’t you go and farm other important resources? Make sure Thalamus and Ash are on your priority list.
