Hades 2: How to Get Garlic

In Hades 2, garlic is one of the important resources that you need to gather to be used for several incantations and home improvements. While the game doesn't explicitly guide you on where to find garlic, understanding its location and uses is essential for easier gameplay. This article will show you how to get garlic in Hades 2.

How to Get Garlic in Hades 2

To get Garlic in Hades 2, you need to unlock the Silver Spade tool first. This tool will allow you to dig up resources during your journey. In the game, garlic cloves can only be found in the City of Ephyra, a location accessible after disabling the ward blocking the path to the surface at the Crossroads.

To unlock the ward, you must complete the Permeation of Witching-Wards incantation. Once the ward is lifted, you can start exploring the City of Ephyra and search for circular, brown dig spots. These spots give you the chance to dig for garlic cloves.

How to Grow Garlic in Hades 2

After you get the garlic cloves, you can plant them in your farm plots at the Crossroads.  Once planted, garlic requires time to grow fully. Alternatively, you can also get garlic in Hades 2 by planting and growing Mysterious Seeds, although this method is less reliable as the seeds produce random resources.

To make sure you have a steady garlic supply, prioritize unlocking the Silver Spade tool, thoroughly explore the City of Ephyra, dig up Garlic Cloves, and promptly plant them at the Crossroads for consistent yields.

How to Use Garlic in Hades 2

Garlic has two purposes in Hades 2:

• Expanding the Farm Plots: You can unlock additional farm plots through an incantation that requires garlic. Having more plots allows for the cultivation of a greater variety of resources.
• Unlocking the Crossroads Taverna: The Crossroads Taverna is a special location where you can strengthen your relationships with various NPCs. To access this area, you must use garlic in the relevant incantation.

By following this guide to understand the importance of garlic and actively seeking it out, you can easily progress through Hades 2 and unlock valuable upgrades. Good luck!
