Like many resources, you will want to get Bronze in Hades 2. This is one of the materials needed to upgrade your weapon aspects. For example, if you want Umbral Flames of Moros, you need 2x Bronze and 2x Tears. But unlike Psyche or Ash, this isn’t a resource that you can get by simply clearing encounters. Rather, it is more of a late-game item. So here is how you need to progress to unlock it and where you can find it.
How to Farm and Get Bronze in Hades 2
Bronze can be found in the Surface world or by visiting Olympus. You can find nodes of Bronze by checking the corners of the map you get during each encounter. Make sure you also carry the Crescent Pick to harvest it. Since Melinoe, like Zagreus, is a child of Hades, she can’t survive outside of the underworld for long. Initially, a barrier will prevent you from accessing the surface world altogether until you learn the Permeation of Witching-Wards incantation.
- Progress the story until you complete the Oceanus level.
- Next, you should meet Hermes, who will ask you to visit Olympus.
- After that, in one of the following battles against Hecate, after you defeat her, she will bring up what Hermes talked about visiting Olympus and unlock the Permeation of Witching-Wards incantation.
- Next, you need to unlock Shadows. You can check our detailed guide for it here. But, to unlock shadows, you need:
- Shadow Extraction spell
- Ash x30
- Psyche x30
- Fate Fabric x3
- Shadow Extraction spell
- Now, for Permeation of Witching-Wards, you need:
- Cinder x1
- Shadow x1
- Moly Flowers x3
- Next, after you have the above ingredients ready, interact with the Cauldron.
- Go to the Alchemy tab and get the Permeation of Witching-Wards incantation. This will allow you to explore Warded gateways.
- Now, go to the weapons room and see that the staircase is unlocked.
Head to the Surface world with a Crescent Pick, and each time you come across a Bronze Node, farm it. Do remember that you need to be fast because the effects of this spell last for a few minutes, and once the time is over, you will return back to the Underworld.
That is all for how you can get Bronze in Hades 2. Since you are farming resources, you should also find our guides useful for this game on how to get Nectar and Bones.
