The Primordial Originator, Chaos, is an interesting character inHades 2that will be met inside the Chaos Gates. To enter and meet them, the player will have to give up some HP.
Chaos is unique, as their boons come with a debuff for a set period before the player is blessed, making them a high-risk high reward.
Chaos’s boons can be randomized to some degree, such as the number of encounters they require for their boons to finally bless the player.
How Chaos’s Boons Work
Chaos is quite unique when it comes to the boons they offer the player. While Chaos’s boons will eventually grant the player a blessing, the player must first go through a few encounters with a disadvantage, this can range anywhere from a slower sprint and movement, to something more extreme such as a -500 Health Points hit if the player can’t manage to defeat their encounters in a set amount of time.
When it comes to Chaos, the first word in their boon gives the player an idea of what the challenge to getting the benefit of their boon is, an example being Pauper, which will mean the player is unable to gain any gold for a while.
The second word of the boon will give the player an idea of what the reward will be for clearing Chaos’s requirements. An example is Strike. If the player sees this it means the boon will make the player’s attacks hit harder.
Best Boons From Chaos
Discovery Boons
Chaos has many boons to offer the player, and among them is a type that ends with the word Discovery. As the name might imply, these kinds of boons will allow the player to discover more resources as they advance inHades 2.
They will increase the amount of resources the player will find with their gathering tools by +100%. The chance of this working depends on the boon’s rarity.
Creation Boons
Creation boons from Chaos are quite unique ones. Boons that end with the word creation will allow the player to gain additional Earth, Water, Air, Fire, and Aether.
To the players, it might not be clear as to how it benefits them, but getting more of these elements can activate other boons from some gods that players might be required to have, for example, 4 water.
Affluence Boons
Boons that end with the word affluence inHades 2from Chaos will be a great way for the player to make more money. Indeed, boons with the word affluence will make any gold crowns the player will find worth more. The % in worth increases depending onwhat Chaos has to offer Melinoë.
This is perfect for players looking to buy more items from Charon, such as other boons, soul tonics, and centaur hearts, among others.
Mind Boons
Chaos might offer the player a boon that, when the player gets the benefits of it, will grant them some extra Magick, the amount of which depends on the randomization of Chaos’s boons.
This is an interesting boon to get if the player is heavy on their omega movesand needs some extra Magick.
Celerity Boons
Chaos might offer the player a boon that ends with the word Celerity. If the player sees this, they can immediately know that this boon will increase the player’s movement speed and their sprinting speed. This will be very useful for dodging enemy attacks and projectiles.
Chasm Boons
A boon that ends with the word Chasm from Chaos is perfect for any player who loves to use their casts to deal damage. Indeed, these boons will cause Melinoë’s chasm to be more destructive.
Soul Boons
Boons from Chaos ending with the word Soul are a great way to increase the player’s max life, the amount depends on the player’s luck, as a lot is randomized with Chaos. If the player’s goal is to increase their max HP, it is easier to achieve that with a Centaur Heart than with Chaos.
Talent Boons
Boons that end with the word Talent will generally allow the player to make use of less Magick. This will be great for any player heavily relying on omega moves, not so much for someone relying on Selene’s boons, which require the player to dish out a lot of Magick to be able to make use of them.
Favor Boons
Favor boons are an incredible wayto ensure that Melinoëgets offered better boons after the blessing starts working. The boons she gets will have a better chance of being rare.
Revelation Boons
Revelation boons from Chaos will basically allow the player to channel their omega moves faster after receiving their blessing. Omega-based playstyles will greatly benefit from these boons.
Will Boons
Chaos might offer the player a boon ending with the word Will, and if that’s the case, the player can expect a boon that will restore a certain amount of their Magick every 1 second. This is very useful if the player relies on omega moves.
Strike Boons
Boons that end with the word Strike will allow the player to increase the damage dealt out with their attacks after the criteria is completed.
Blood Boons
Boons from Chaos that end with the word blood will allow the player to recover some of their Health points every time they finish an encounter and exit a location. This is extremely useful as it will guarantee the player some recovery after every encounter, making it easier to go deeper in the game.
Defiance Boons
Defiance is an incredibly useful boon offered by Chaos.It allows the player to defy their death one more timeper night. Being able to defy death is an amazing ability that can save the players from certain deaths. It’s especially useful when fighting against powerful bosses.
If the player falls, they will be brought back with 40% of their health points and Magick.
