by This time we will talk about how to get Chthonic Keys and Darkness in Hades , we will also take a look at all the uses that we can give to these basic objects but at the same time so valued.
Both objects are very related to each other regarding the development of Zagreo’s potential, since the Chthonic Keys allow us to unlock new talents for him and in turn the Darkness will be necessary to activate these talents and empower them even more.
WHAT ARE CHTHONIC KEYS AND WHAT ARE THEY FOR?
The Chthonic Keys are objects that we will generally use to unlock access to a talent or weapon , their uses are as follows:
- In the Night Mirror, initially we will only have 4 talents available, to unlock the rest of the talents we will need to use 65 Chthonic Keys in total.
- Every time we want to redistribute the Darkness that we have spent on the Night Mirror talents, we will have to spend a Chthonic Key.
- Stigiana is the only weapon unlocked from the beginning of the game, to unlock the remaining 5 we will need 24 Chthonic Keys.
- We can exchange 5 Chthonic Keys at the Miserable Money Changer to get a bottle of Nectar .
- We will need 200 Chthonic Keys to acquire the “Cthonic” Theme at the Dwelling Contractor.
Also, if we purchase “Auspicious Chthonic Keys” from the Mansion Contractor, we can get an additional charge for the Overbearing Fate or Persuasive Fate talent (whichever you have equipped for) every time you get a Chthonic Key as a reward in a meeting.
HOW TO GET CHTHONIC KEYS IN HADES
These are the ways in which we can acquire Chthonic Keys:
- Accessing the doors with the Key symbol and beating the encounter, which will be the most common way to obtain them.
- Completing the prophecies of the List of Minor Omens of the Fates , since some give us Chthonic Keys as a reward.
- We can exchange 10 Gems in the Miserable Money Changer for a Chthonic Key.
- If we give the Cook any fish we caught in the Asphodels, he will give us Chthonic Keys as a reward.
- It can appear in Charon’s Shop randomly, its standard cost is 50 Charon’s Pence.
WHAT IS DARKNESS AND WHAT IS IT FOR?
Darkness will be a primary resource to enhance Zagreo’s abilities , its uses are as follows:
- We will need Darkness to activate Zagreo’s talents in the Night Mirror and to level them up.
- In order to win Nicte’s favor and be able to fix his relationship with Chaos, we will need to acquire “Ancestral Seal Restoration” in the Contractor of the Dwelling in exchange for 3,142 Darkness.
- We can get the “Infinite” Theme at the Contractor of the Residence for the modest price of 25000 Darkness.
- In some of the limited offers that we will find in the Miserable Changer after finishing an escape attempt, they will ask us for Darkness as a bargaining chip.
If we also activate “Absolute Darkness” in the Mansion Contractor, each time we get Darkness as a reward for a stay, Zagreo’s maximum life will increase by 5 points.
HOW TO GET DARKNESS IN HADES
As I have already told you, it is a rather difficult object to obtain in large quantities. In that sense it is similar to Ambrosia and Titan’s Blood , but I leave you here the list with all the available forms. The truth is that knowing all these methods, obtaining them becomes much more enjoyable:
- Accessing the doors with the symbol of Darkness and beating the encounter.
- If we make an escape attempt again with a weapon or heat level with which we have already defeated the bosses, they will give us Darkness for defeating them instead of the Diamond that the Skull Hydra would give us, for example .
- Sometimes we will find in Charon’s well an object called Erebus Tint, this object will give us a little Darkness when bought.
- It can appear in Charon’s Shop randomly, its standard cost is 25 Charon’s Pence.
- If we give the Cook any fish we caught in the room where we met Chaos , he’ll give us Darkness as a reward (but it’s hard to get a fish here).
- Every time Chthonic Companion Shady is summoned, it will drop 10 Darkness on the field.
- Darkness is one of the objects that the Infernal Chests that we find in the Underworld can drop us.
- If we make the escape attempt with a weapon imbued with the Shadow Thirst, we can get an additional 20% Darkness.
- Poseidon’s Bountiful Ocean boon will increase the amount of Darkness we get by a random percentage, while his Sunken Treasure boon will give us a random amount of Darkness.
