How to get Keepsakes in Hades 2

When you’re near a character, press RT on a controller or G on a keyboard to open the gift menu. Then select the Nectar option (it looks like a little jar of honey).

First time you give Nectar to a character, they return a Keepsake. Therefore, you can only get one Keepsake per character. So, hold onto Nectar until you’ve met each character at least once, because some characters are rare or show up only as random encounters. In short, travel with at least one Nectar until you unlock every Keepsake.

How to level up Keepsakes in Hades 2

Equipping a Keepsake and surviving combat is how you rank it up. Specifically, you need to clear 25 encounters to go from rank 1 to rank 2, and then an additional 50 encounters to reach rank 3.

Ranking up increases a Keepsake’s potency. For example, some healing or damage numbers scale with rank, and certain abilities get stronger at higher ranks. You can equip Keepsakes in the cabinet on the run-preparation screen. Also, you may unlock the ability to change Keepsakes between regions, but note that once you unequip a Keepsake during a run you can’t put it back on for that same run.
