Daedalus Hammers rank among my absolute favorite upgrades inHadesandHades 2. They have the power to change the behavior of weapons in entertaining ways and are often the key part of a winning build. Here are the best Daedalus Hammer upgrades for each weapon inHades 2.
There are five weapons inHades 2, and each comes with its own set of Daedalus Hammer upgrades. Said Hammers will alter how your weapons work, either by changing the way they attack or by affecting your other abilities in some substantial way. Let’s just say that, if you spot the Hammersymbol on a door, you should absolutely go for it unless you feel your build is good enough. If you’re chasing down those Hammers, scroll to the section below to find out which ones we recommend the most.
Hades 2: Best Daedalus Hammer upgrades for each weapon
As mentioned, there are five weapons inHades 2with unique Hammer upgrades. We’ll go over each weapon along with what I feel to be the best upgrades you can obtain. I decided to go with three upgrades per weapon and offered suggestions where applicable on how best to wield them.
The Witch’s Staff
The Witch’s Staff brings a good balance ofMagick ability and attack power, either of which (or both at once) can be improved with Daedalus Hammer upgrades. If you’re rocking the staff, look for these during your next run:
Sister Blades
The Sister Blades are my favorite weapons in the game. Why? Well, not only are they fun to use, but their Daedalus Hammer upgrades are some of the most impressive in the game. Consider these next time you rock the blades:
Truth be told, most (if not all) Daedalus Hammer upgrades for the Sister Blades are incredible in their own right. You could replace my list above with any other combination and you should do just as well or even better, depending on your build. Mix and match, and just enjoythe stabbing.
Umbral Flames
As the most maligned of Melinoë’s weapons, figuring out the best Umbral Flames’ Hammer upgrades is a bit tricky. I do feel these are the best for the time being:
Moonstone Axe
Ah, the Moonstone Axe, my beloved. It’s fun to create builds for the Moonstone Axe, as the damage it deals can knock the wind out of most foes and bosses alike.
Argent Skull
As weird as it is, I actually adore the Argent Skull weapon. It’s deceptively powerful and has taken me to some satisfying victories inHades 2. To earn your own wins with the Skulls, look for these upgrades to try:
The Black Coat
If you ever thought about how a rocket-firing jetpack would fare in ancient Greece (who hasn’t?), wonder no more. Xinth – The Black Coat is an admittedly anachronistic weapon that allows Melinoë to zip around the screen softening up foes with a barrage of rockets before delivering a devastating punch. To increase the weapon’s immense power, try:
Keep in mind that this list is subjective and liable to change. For the most part, the best Daedalus Hammer upgrades inHades 2are the ones that suit your play style and build the most. The list above, however, does contain what I feel to be the absolute most essential upgrades, so I encourage you to check them out on your wayto kill Time.
