There are a lot of different weapons in Hades II and players have access to a variety of Weapon Aspects that make them even better in combat.

Knowing which combination of weapons and aspects you should use can sometimes be confusing as there are a lot of things to consider. The majority of Weapon Aspects in the game provide unique abilities and strategies that may not fit every playstyle.

The weapons in Hades II are called Nocturnal Arms that can be upgraded by crafting or unlocking various Weapon Aspects. The latter are permanent upgrades that you can keep even if you restart a particular run.

With so many to choose from and a variety of effects to consider, knowing which is the best fit for your weapon or playstyle can have a drastic effect on how easy or difficult the game becomes for you. We list down some of the best Weapon Aspects that you can use to deck up Melinoe's Nocturnal Arms.

Aspect of Artemis

This particular weapon aspect can be acquired on the Sister Blades that let you occasionally parry enemies' attacks and then Riposte while you channel your Omega Attack. This somewhat makes up for this weapon's relatively short range, according to The Gamer.

This Weapon Aspect gives you some form of defense when you channel your Omega Attacks. The ability to parry attacks makes you impervious to damage for one second. You then gain a 50% critical strike chance for your next nine attacks.

Aspect of Persephone

Upgrading the Argent Skull with the Aspect of Persephone is a good choice because it lets you generate Glory and also enhances your special attack. This Weapon Aspect provides a stacking buff that will make your Omega Special Attacks last five seconds longer.

The Argent Skull is a good weapon for dealing damage at a distance and massively benefits from this particular Weapon Aspect. The only thing you need to worry about is having enough Mana to use your Omega Special Attack. Game Rant said.

Aspect of Momus

This Weapon Aspect is for the Witch's Staff and its effect is increasing the damage that you deal using Special Attacks as well as Omega Special Attacks. When equipped with the Aspect of Momus, the Witch's Staff sends a massive attack in a line after a charge.

Aspect of Selene

The Black Coat weapon is capable of being upgraded with the Aspect of Selene, which grants Melinoe a unique hex, Skyfall. This is a non-intensive hex that automatically causes nearby enemies to be hit by a moon beam.

On top of dealing damage, the moon beam attack also curses foes with the unique Shrine curse.

They will take an extra 50% damage from Omega moves for eight seconds. The main benefit of this aspect is that the moon beam can hit multiple enemies at once, according to Hardcore Gamer.
