How to Get Nightshade in Hades 2

Get Nightshade Seed

To begin the journey of obtaining Nightshade, you must first gather Nightshade Seeds. These seeds can be found by exploring the area of Erebus and digging into the dirt mounds scattered throughout the level.

However, before going on this quest, it is essential for you to equip the Silver Spade Gathering Tool, which can be unlocked on the training grounds.

Planting and Harvesting Nightshade

Once you have successfully collected Nightshade Seeds, the next step involves planting them in the soil mounds located near the Incantation Pot at the Crossroads.

To access this feature, you must first complete the "Flourishing Soil" Incantation by gathering a Moly plant. After planting the seeds, you need to be patient as the Nightshade takes time to grow. You can either start a run and return later to harvest the fully grown Nightshade, or use the Bath Salts to pass the time. It is a great way to advance time if you are waiting for some plants to grow.

Nightshade plays an important role in unlocking mid-to-high-level Incantations within Hades 2. Incantations such as "Doomed Beckoning" and "Floral Fortune" require you to obtain a certain number of Nightshades.

These incantations offer significant benefits for you in the game. Floral Fortune grants access to the pawn shop at the Wretched Broker merchant while Doomed Beckoning allows you to summon Moros, a powerful ally in battle.

In addition to its use in incantations, Nightshade can also be sold to the Wretched Broker merchant and you will get Bones in return. Each Nightshade item can be exchanged for ten Bones.
