Nocturnal Arms

This article is about the weapons from Hades II. For the weapons in the first Hades, see Infernal Arms.

Weapons are your main mode of attack. Initially, only the Witch's Staff is available, but additional weapons can be unlocked by spending various Reagents such as in the training grounds. Unlocking all the weapons requires a total of 19 Silver, 5 Cinder, 1 Bronze, 2 Glassrock and 2 Adamant. They can be upgraded during a run with a Daedalus Hammer.

They are the sister weapons of the Infernal Arms and were created by Nyx alongside her daughters The Fates, who entrusted them to Hecate for them to be used to safeguard the Underworld. They are fate forged servants of the Underworld that thrive on pure Nightmare itself.

Abilities Description

Melinoë's Attack, Special, and Cast each have unique Ω versions. Since certain aspect abilities and apply exclusively to specific moves, the descriptions use precise terminology—singular, plural, or individual terms—to minimize confusion.

For example, "Zorephet" / Moonstone Axe.

• Aspect of Melinoë's increased Attack Power effect applies only to Attack, not its Ω version.
• Aspect of Charon's increased Cast duration effect applies to Cast and Ω Cast. Cleave-Cast functions identically to Ω Cast.
• Aspect of Thanatos's increased Attack Speed effect applies only to Attack, not its Ω version, while the Mortality ability (Critical chance increased up to 13%) applies exclusively to Ω Moves, which includes Ω Attack, Ω Special, and Ω Cast.

To clarify these terms, the following nomenclature is used across ability descriptions:

• "Strike" includes Attack, Ω Attack, Special, and Ω Special.
• "Ω Moves/Omega Moves" includes Ω Attack, Ω Special, and Ω Cast.
• "Attack" refers only to Attack.
• "Special" refers only to Special.
• "Cast" refers only to Cast.
• "Attacks" includes both Attack, and Ω Attack.
• "Specials" includes both Special, and Ω Special.
• "Casts" includes both Cast, and Ω Cast.
