How to Get Mandrake in Hades 2
To get Mandrake seeds in Hades 2, you must first reach the Rift of Thessaly biome, which is located on the surface. However, similar to the steps for getting garlic and driftwood in the game, you need to break the surface ward by unlocking the Permeation of Witching-Wards incantation. This incantation requires:
- Cinder x1
- Shadow x1
- Moly x3
Once the surface ward is broken, you must equip the Silver Spade tool before heading out. Without this tool, Melinoe will be unable to interact with the dig spots that potentially yield Mandrake seeds.
