Early in the game, some Hades 2 players are having trouble obtaining the necessary “gathering tools.” One of the essentials for gathering mats early in Hades 2 is a fishing rod. Getting the fishing rod, however, will require work. This is a comprehensive guide that explains how to craft the fishing rod and other necessary supplies.
Rod of Fishing Materials
- 1 Bronze
- 2 Fate Fabrics
How to Get Bronze in Hades 2
- Perform Incantation: Start by performing the Permeation of Witching-Wards Incantation at Hecate’s cauldron to access the Surface.
- Equip Crescent Pick: Before departing the Silver Pool, make sure your Crescent Pick (encounter reward) is equipped. Go to the Surface to mine for Bronze.
- Navigate the Witching Ward: Pass through the Witching Ward, which serves as the entrance to the Surface. Make sure you travel fast and be very careful, as Melinoe will suffer damage without a specific Incantation.
- Unraveling a Fateful Bond- The incantation needed to avoid damage while you are on the surface. Look for Chaos to know more about the incantation.
- Reach City of Ephyra: Travel quickly to the City of Ephyra. This is where Bronze is mined.
How to Easily Get Fate Fabric
- Fate Fabric can be bought from the Wretched Broker.
- Fate Fabric costs 60 Bones each. You can sell some loot to merchant NPCs to earn bones.
Hades 2: Bronze Uses
- Craft Fishing Rod: Use the obtained Bronze (1 unit) + Fate Fabric (2 units) to make the Fishing Rod Gathering Tool. Using this tool, you can catch valuable fish that you can trade with NPCs.
- Unlock Argent Skull: Alternatively, use Bronze to craft the Argent Skull, a powerful weapon capable of devastating attacks early in the game.
