How to get a Golden Apple in Hades 2

The Golden Apple is a rare resource in Hades 2 locked behind a boss battle. I will show you where to get Golden Apples and what to do with them in Hades 2.

Where to get the Golden Apple in Hades 2

The Golden Apple is found in the Rift of Thessaly on the surface. First, you'll have to go through several enemy ships, get through two Charon boats and maybe even fight a Charybdis. On the second boat driven by Charon, you will see a door with a Golden Apple on it.

Entering this door will take you to the Eris boss fight. It is one of the hardest in the game because she is fast and armed with the Railed Adamanent. Those able to defeat Eris successfully will receive the Golden Apple.

In the Early Access version of Hades 2, you will immediately return to the Crossroads after this battle. You'll need to beat her three times to get enough Golden Apples for the two current uses.

What is the Golden Apple used for in Hades 2?

The first way to use the Golden Apple is to unlock the Skin of Eos for the Umbral Flames weapon. The Aspect of Eos boosts your attack for four seconds and returns to you whenever you sprint. The damage starts at an extra 40%, and increases by 10% for each rank.

The second use for Golden Apples unlocks the Divinity Arcana Card. The Divinity card gives all Boons a 10% chance to be Epic as long as you have activated 5 Tarot Cards in any turn. It costs 40 Ash and 1 Golden Apple. Upgrading it will increase the chance for Boons to be Epic.
