Where To Find Adamant In Hades 2

Not all things in life are free, which sadly carries over to video games. For rogue-lites such as Hades 2, you’ll need to work hard to gather resources and materials to unlock new content. In this case, it’s the elusive Adamant Ore, found in the coldest regions of Hades 2.

It’s time for Mel to grab some warm-weather gear, as Adamant is an ore found only at the top of the world: Mount Olympus. The Location takes a lot of time to reach, as it can only be accessed after traveling far on the surface. You must first defeat the Guardian of the Rift of Thessaly, who blocks the path to the mythical mount. Oh, but be sure to bring a pickaxe along with some fur boots.

How to find and gather Adamant Ore in Hades 2

Every region in Hades 2 contains an ore you can gather; on Mount Olympus, that’s Adamant. To get Adamant, you’ll need to visit and explore the Mount Olympus region. Ore deposits are randomly placed in every area, so you’ll have to stumble on one by chance. Luckily for you, the likelihood of finding the ore isn’t low. You’ll likely find at least one ore node, but don’t fret if you don’t. The next visit could have what you desire.

Adamant Ore is black in color and appears on Mount Olympus as a crystalline structure jutting out of stone. It looks similar to Glassrock found in the Fields of Mourning but is comprised of smaller stones. You can often find them on the edges of a room.

You should have the Crescent Pick unlocked at this point, but you can gather Adamant Ore without it. However, I’d suggest bringing the pickaxe along if you’re in need of the ore. Using the Crescent Pick guarantees you gather more Adamant per ore deposit. Adamant is needed to unlock some neat stuff, so gathering as much as possible as quickly as possible should be your goal once you reach Mount Olympus.

Where to use Adamant in Hades 2

Adamant is required for certain crafting recipes in Hades 2 but let’s be honest, most players need it to unlock the sixth and final weapon in the Arms of Night, the Black Coat. The Black Coat requires two Adamant and two Cinder to unlock via the Silver Pool. Once you have it in your arsenal, you can consider yourself fully stocked, locked, and ready to rock.

Adamant is also used for the Frozen Lifespring Incantation. Frozen Lifespring, like the other Lifesprings you can unlock, creates a room that contains a healing pool and possibly some resources in Mount Olympus. It’s exceptionally useful, especially for those fighting for their life on the chilly mountain. Frozen Lifespring requires three Adamant and three Iris, a flower you can also gather in Mount Olympus.

You can check how much Adamant you have by opening up your menu and choosing the Reagents tab.
