How to get Moss in Hades 2

Moss is a common plant in real life, but it’s worth its weight in gold in Hades 2. It’s a resource that you cannot complete the game without, allowing you to progress past an obstacle barring your path. Here’s where to find Moss in Hades 2, and where it’s used.

To find Moss in Hades 2, you must look for it up on the surface. Likely, you’ve already made it past the wards, but the blood curse is keeping you grounded down below. You now must make a mad dash to the city above and grab as much Moss as possible before getting unceremoniously hurled back to the Crossroads. So, let’s get to it.

Where to find Moss in Hades 2

Moss, like in real life, is a clumpy, green, flowerless plant lying around in Hades 2. You need two Moss to complete the ‘Unraveling a Fateful Bond’ incantation, allowing you to stay up in the fresh air indefinitely. Moss, once found, must be harvested by hand in the City of Ephyra. Thankfully, you won’t need a tool for the job.

You may die multiple times in your attempt to gather Moss, but that’s okay; it’s all part of the process. Once you have what you need and have the other materials gathered, you’ll be able to walk through the city and beyond unimpeded. Well, if we don’t count the legions of Chronos’ army, I suppose.

What Moss is used for in Hades 2

Other than the aforementioned incantation, Moss has multiple uses in Hades 2. It’s used in other incantations, such as the ‘Observance of Gaia’s Secrets’, which you should get after you’ve made some significant progress in the game. Casting it allows you to gather one additional resource by hand. Moss is also used to unlock a weapon Aspect for the Argent Skull, a mechanic you can learn more about here.

As mentioned, Moss is a great plant resource in Hades 2. For more on ‘Greeneries’ and their uses in the game, check out our guide.
