How To Get Diamonds In Hades

Diamonds are a valuable currency in Hades, and there are multiple methods to earn them throughout your gameplay. Whether you’re completing prophecies, defeating bosses, or exploring the shops available during your escape runs, this guide covers all the ways you can accumulate diamonds to upgrade your weapons and unlock new content.

Method 1: Complete Prophecies from the House Contractor

One of the most straightforward ways to earn diamonds is through prophecies purchased from the House Contractor. Start by purchasing a faded list of minor prophecies from the House Contractor.

Once you’ve purchased the prophecies, head to your room and interact with your desk. You’ll see a list of available quests and prophecies that you can complete.

Example Prophecy Rewards

Completing these prophecies will grant you diamond rewards. For example:

The Queen’s Plan: Rewards 5 diamonds

A Violent Past: Requires unlocking all aspects and rewards 6 diamonds

As you progress, more prophecies will appear at your desk. Simply complete them to earn your diamonds.

Method 2: Defeat the Bone Hydra Boss

During your escape runs, you can earn diamonds by defeating specific bosses. The Bone Hydra is the boss of the second biome, Asphodel.

The game progression includes four stages: Tartarus, Asphodel, Elysium, and the final stage. The Bone Hydra appears in Asphodel, and defeating this boss will reward you with a diamond.

Increase Your Rewards with Heat Level

To maximize your diamond rewards, consider increasing your heat level before attempting boss fights. Higher heat levels provide better rewards, including more diamonds upon victory.

Method 3: Purchase Diamonds from Charon’s Shop

During your escape runs, you may encounter Charon’s shop in the Temple of Sticks. This shop occasionally stocks diamonds for purchase, though availability is not guaranteed.

Diamond Costs in Charon’s Shop

Diamond: 1000 gold or coins

Diamond (with Charon’s Stone card): 800 gold or coins

Keep an eye out for these shop opportunities during your runs, especially if you have enough gold accumulated.

Method 4: Fish and Trade with the Head Chef

A unique way to obtain diamonds involves fishing. After you defeat Ares during an escape run, there’s a chance that a fishing spot will appear.

Fish at this spot and you’ll have the opportunity to catch a trout.

Once you’ve caught a trout, head to the Lounge and find the Head Chef. You can exchange your trout with the chef for either another trout or a diamond.

Method 5: Trade with the Red Broker

The Red Broker offers another trading opportunity. Diamonds can be purchased from the Red Broker for 10 Nectar.

Summary

There are five main methods to earn diamonds in Hades: completing prophecies from the House Contractor, defeating the Bone Hydra boss, purchasing from Charon’s shop during runs, fishing and trading with the Head Chef, and trading Nectar with the Red Broker. By utilizing multiple strategies and increasing your heat level for better rewards, you can steadily accumulate diamonds to enhance your gameplay experience.
