This elusive boon can be tricky to acquire, but with some persistence and strategy, it’s definitely possible. In this article, we’ll walk you through the steps to obtain the Hermes legendary boon.

What is a legendary boon?

Before we dive into the specifics of acquiring the Hermes legendary boon, let’s first understand what a legendary boon is. In Hades, boons are special abilities that are granted by the gods and goddesses of Olympus. Legendary boons are the most powerful type of boon and are only offered by a select few gods.

Who is Hermes?

Hermes is one of the Olympian gods in Hades. He is known as the messenger of the gods and has a quick wit and even quicker feet. His boons usually focus on speed and mobility.

How to get Hermes’ legendary boon

To obtain Hermes’ legendary boon, you must first have unlocked all his other boons. Once you have acquired all his regular boons, there are two ways to get his legendary boon:

Method 1: Keep playing

The first method is simply to keep playing until it randomly appears in a run. This method requires patience and persistence as there’s no guarantee when or if it will appear.

However, there are some things you can do to increase your chances of getting it:

  • Prioritize Hermes’ chambers: Whenever possible, choose paths that lead to Hermes’ chambers over other gods’ chambers.
  • Use Fated Persuasion: Fated Persuasion is an item that can be purchased from the House Contractor for 1 Diamond. It allows you to influence which boons and gods will appear in your next run.

    Use it to increase the chances of getting Hermes’ legendary boon.

  • Keep trying: Don’t give up if you don’t get it on your first few tries. Keep playing and eventually, luck may be on your side.

Method 2: Trade with the broker

The second method is to trade for it with the broker. The broker is an NPC located in the House of Hades who trades rare items for other valuable resources. To trade for Hermes’ legendary boon, you’ll need:

  • 2 Titan Blood: Titan Blood is a rare resource that can be obtained by defeating bosses in the game.
  • 5 Ambrosia: Ambrosia is an even rarer resource that can be obtained by completing prophecies or exchanging diamonds with characters in the game.

Once you have these resources, speak to the broker and select “Trade” to exchange them for Hermes’ legendary boon.

In conclusion

Acquiring Hermes’ legendary boon may take some time and effort, but it’s well worth it. With its powerful effects, it can greatly enhance your gameplay experience in Hades. Keep playing and using these strategies to increase your chances of obtaining this elusive boon.
