Some Boons can be ignored to make place for better ones, however, players must first acquaint themselves with the Hades 2 Boon tier list.
Hades 2 Boon Tier List Updated
Boons are the heart of Hades 2. After all, it is the mechanic that makes the protagonist stronger in the roguelike and encourages the player to keep on trying. Death means restarting the game from square one so choosing the best Hades 2 Boons becomes all the more crucial.
It is difficult to individually point out all the best Hades 2 Boons from God’s list of blessings. Thus, in this roguelike game tier list, we have ranked the Gods and characters in the game based on the effectiveness of their Boons. Each character has been placed into four different tiers:-
- Tier-0: These Gods present the best Hades 2 Boons be it for the beginning or the late game.
- Tier-1: These Gods grant incredible buffs. However, it may come at a price, as seen in Boons by Chaos.
- Tier-2: Boons provided by Gods in this tier are effective situationally or are useful in some action buttons.
- Tier-3: Although these Gods present powerful Boons, they are dependent on the weapon type.

Which God Gives The Best Hades 2 Boons?
Demeter provides an impressive set of Boons in Hades 2. The Goddess of Seasons can power up Melinoë’s attacks and also gives the important ‘Freeze’ effect. Enemies that are inflicted with Freeze are slowed which makes it easier for the player to spam the Attack button to destroy an enemy or use their Cast to inflict AoE damage on a horde of enemies.
As players progress in Hades 2 Early Access, they can choose hybrid boons provided by Demeter and another Olympian God or Goddess. Melinoë is granted even more damage and effects while she retains the Arctic Ring and Ice Strike Boons that Demeter had bestowed.
