Best weapon aspect for Asphodel in Hades
When you have defeated either of these Furies, make your way to Asphodel and recharge at the fountain you see in the transition room, right in between Asphodel and Tartarus. If you want, you can try swapping out keepsakes here. In case your supply of Obols is running low, you can cleanse your Boons as well. Although you can retain the dash boons you possess, keep in mind that the copious amounts of lava you will come across will prevent you from using them to their full potential in Asphodel.
You can successfully use the dash move, though, if you are proficient enough to dash in a carefully controlled way. Make sure you have the Greater Reflex upgrade from the Mirror of Night as well. When you have enough keys in your possession, you can proceed to unlock the Twin Fists of Malphon. After that, unlock the Aspect of Talos using your Titan Blood. This item will transform your usual uppercut special into a powerful Magnetic Cutter. You can use this to hook up foes and then pull them towards you.
Dashing towards foes leaves you at risk of falling into the lava. Thus, pulling them towards you will help you close the gap with much lesser risk. Keep in mind, though, that the foes you will encounter here are frequently going to leap forward and remain in motion. Thus, it can be hard to lock onto them. But do not give up and keep trying!
Seeking Eurydice’s help
You will come across Eurydice in this area, who is generally seen singing and cooking. You should be able to hear her voice frequently. She is going to be of great help to you here, so go ahead and interact with her. When she offers to enhance the boons you presently possess, gift Ambrosia/Nectar to her. In turn, she will give you the Evergreen Acorn.
This is a useful keepsake that will turn you invincible to damage from boss attacks for the first three to five times. If you keep winning battles while having this keepsake equipped, the number will increase.
Defeating the Boss of Asphodel – the Lernaean Bone Hydra
The Lernaean Bone Hydra is the boss of the Asphodel region, found right at the end of the area. It has the ability to grow more heads when you inflict damage upon it. Keep moving swiftly across the little platforms and proceed to take out the extra heads. Once that is done, focus on attacking the main head once again. You can get good results from using a dash capable of inflicting damage here. Since the extra heads can summon ads, you will be well served by a dash boon that can send foes reeling backward.
When you get closer to the main head, it will snap viciously at you and attempt to slam the ground. Fortunately, it isn’t very fast, and you can easily evade these attacks. The main head will also breathe out fire and lava, resulting in the ground getting covered with pools of lava. Make sure you avoid them while moving. It also spews forth purple flames that will come after you. You can deflect these flames using your Divine Dash, which will also damage the Hydra. Eventually, you will destroy the boss. Congratulations! You can proceed to Elysium now.
