Summary

• Melinoe is the star in Hades 2, with customizable outfits offering unique perks like increased armor and faster channeling speeds.
• Choose wisely between the six dresses from Arachne, each with different effects like increased damage, gold crowns, and health regeneration.
• For a successful run in Hades 2, consider pairing the Lavender Dress with fast Magick regeneration to maximize Omega moves in combat.

If you're a veteran of the original Hades, you'll notice there are a lot of things different about Hades 2, like the protagonist and story for one. You're no longer Zagreus, but instead his younger sister Melinoe, who has one thing that her brother didn't – customizable outfits.

One of the Boon-givers this time around is the friendly Erebus neighborhood spider Arachne, a silk-weaver-turned-spider 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:who na🥀turally comes from an ac🐬tual Greek myth, and her dresses not only change the color scheme on Melinoe's clothing but are yet another option for receiving helpful perks in the game. Here's how the styles compare.

Hades 2 is currently in Early Access, so some of the properties of the Arachne Dresses 🐬may eventually be subject to change, or dresses may even increase in variety.

6 Scar🦄let Dressꦏ

The Scarlet Dress is probably the one you'll least desire from Arachne. Yes, that effect of getting 100 percent damage on your Casts is an excellent perk, but you have to remember that it lasts so long as you have the armor from the dress. Ten armor will deplete very, very quickly, maybe letting you get only one or two casts in before it's gone if you're not careful.

There are much better ways of getting high Cast damage than relying on the Scarlet Dress, mainly from strong c🎐urse Boons pertaining to Casts and continuously upgrading them when possible. If you already have those to begin with before approaching Arachne, it won't make any sense to dress Melinoe in red, and you should choose other options instead.

5 🎀 Moonlight Dress

The Moonlight Dress is double the armor of Scarlet, but the perk effect is still not the best option of the six dresses Arachne has available in the game. It's essentially a money-making outfit, automatically giving you five Gold Crowns whenever you enter a new room.

It's not the best way to accumulate a ton of funds to take to Charon's shop. In fact, you'll probably earn more by collecting the Gold Crowns on your own from clearing enemies than with the Moonlight Dress because 20 Armor can run out on you before you know it unless you also equip Arachne's Silken Sash Keepsake.

If you want to ensure you'll have enough Gold Crowns to make purchases at Charon's shop, you should acquire his Gold Purse Keepsake, which can allow up to 150 coins in your inventory at the start of each run.

4 Lavender Dress ♛

Lavender Dress adds on another ten Armor to give you a total of 30, which still isn't the highest you can get, but still far better than risking it with only ten. The perk for Lavender is also a much better option than either the Moonlight or Scarlet dresses because it increases the charge time for your Omega moves by 40 percent, a significant bump that can help you avoid taking unnecessary damage from enemies.

Combine the Lavender Dress with a build that has your Magick mana meter replenishing at a pretty fast rate, as well as Arachne's Silken Sash Keepsake equipped to keep your Armor steadily increasing, and you've got a winning combo that can take you far into your run. No more having to feel the delay in channeling your Omega moves.

3 🌠 Onyx Dress 🅷

The Onyx Dress currently gives you the highest amount of Armor you can get from an outfit, which is 60. Pairing this with the Silken Sash can make for a pretty strong health build. If you make it to Arachne's Silken Finery with most of the Armor from the Keepsake still intact, you can greatly increase your Armor with the Onyx Dress, taking it way beyond 60 and giving yourself a nice cushion for combat in tougher regions.

The other benefit of this dress is that it automatically grants one Fate Fabric. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Fate Fabric is not too🥃 challenginꦑg to acquire since you can get it from the Broker's shop at the Crossroads when you have it set up. This resource will be a common ingredient for important Incantations, so if you need Fate Fabric more urgently and are worried you won't have enough Bones to purchase it, the Onyx Dress can save the day in that regard, too.

2 Emerald Dress 🅘

The Emerald Dress truly has Melinoe's health in mind. It adds a generous 50 Armor and lets your bar regain two health points every time you enter a new area. Depending on how long you can have it on without depleting the Armor down to almost nothing, the Emerald Dress is another great tool to help heal you back to possibly even full health.

The amount of Life restoration the Emerald Dress offers 168澳洲🌠幸运5开奖网:꧒amounts to that of the Wayward Son Arcana Card and can be a substitute for The Centaur Card, the latter of which costs five Grasp to equip. Knowing the Emerald Dress will be in your path, you can be more selective and eliminate some Arcana Cards from the deck, especially if you haven't sufficiently increased your Grasp.

1 A🐎zure Dress 💜

In the end, you have to go with something blue. Arachne's Azure Dress is the best safeguard to success in the fast-paced combat of Hades 2. It grants you 40 Armor and keeps your Magick bar refilling at a rate of five points every second, which is one of the best perks you could ask for.

Azure is a complimentary outfit to any Magick restoration Arcana and Keepsake since they also have their limits. Using Magick for Omega Casts and Omega moves wil💞l be very important in Hades 2, so you want to make sure you're equipped with all you can to keep the mana replenishing, especially if the Boons in your build require lots of Magick depletion, like the overpowered Poseidon Breaker Sprint Boon.
