Besides finding new crafting materials, you also need items to gift your companions in Hades 2. Nectar is a sought-after item, but its location is vague. You might need to complete several runs across various areas to farm this unique resource. If you are having trouble finding Nectar, you are in the right place. Here are the best ways to collect Nectar in Hades 2.
How To Get Nectar In Hades 2
There are four ways to get Nectar: visit Charon, the Wretched Broker, go through Erebus or craft one yourself. Since Erebus is the first region you will encounter, you are likely to stumble across Nectar more frequently there while exploring rooms. Whenever you complete an encounter, you have a higher chance of finding Nectar in the next room.
If you have unlocked Charon, visit him until Nectar spawns randomly in his store. Later, after unlocking Kinship Fortune Incantation, there is a chance to come across the Wretched Broker, who gives you 1 Nectar for 30 bones.
There is also a chance to craft Nectar, but you require a very rare item to do so: a Golden Apple. For every Golden Apple, you get 3x Nectar. It takes about 8 seconds to craft 1x Nectar this way.
How to Use Nectar
Give your favorite companions some Nectar, and in turn, most of them will offer a Keepsake. There aren’t any fixed characters to hand over Nectar to, as most of them, excluding Hades, will accept the token. If you hand over Nectar to a character for the first time, you will receive a Keepsake. Subsequent gifts will strengthen your affinity with them.
If you wish to know what each character’s Keepsakes are, check out our dedicated Keepsakes guide in Hades 2. Otherwise, if you want to prioritize certain characters based on the Keepsakes they offer, then we have a guide on best Keepsakes to check out too.
