While several resources are available inHades 2, some are quite abundant, while some are uniquely rare. All these resources are equally important for your character’s progression, so you have to work a little harder to get the rarer ones. The Golden Apple is a resource that will require a bit of work to obtain.
In this guide, you’ll learn specifically about where to find the rare Golden Apple, which is useful for upgrading one of the best arcana cards in Hades 2. There are some prerequisites you have to unlock, so if you aren’t that far in the story, you might skip a few things unintentionally.
Hades 2 is in Early Access. Information written in this guide is subject to change and will be amended when required.
Where To Find Golden Apples
The Golden Apple drops from thefinal boss in the Rift of Thessaly. Rift of Thessaly is the second stage of the surface area, which means you have to at leastunlock the ward blocking the way to the surfaceto get a Golden Apple.
After unlocking the way to the surface, you’ll reach the City of Ephyra. you’re able to find resources like Bronze andGarlic Cloveshere, so if you need them, you shoulduse the appropriate gathering toolin your runs. You’ll have tofight the Cyclops Polyphemus at the end of the City of Ephyrastage.
After defeating the Cyclops, you’ll reach the Rift of Thessaly. You’ll have todefeat the mini-boss Charybdisto reach the end. In the end, you’ll reach the coast andfight Eris, Strife Incarnate, who is the final boss of the location. Eris will drop asingle Golden Apple.
You don’t need several Golden Apples, and its earliest use would be theDivinity Arcana cardthat gives:
To activate the Arcana, you need toactivate all five cards in any other row.
If you need multiple Golden Apples, you should focus on improving your single target damage with boons, so you have a better chance of defeating Eris. Failing once will force you to repeat the whole run and go through the Cyclops and Charybdis.
