How to get Driftwood in Hades 2

Once you’ve played Hades 2 enough to start working on Incantations, you should know that this game has a lot of resources you need to collect. Some of these can be earned on any run, while others are in specific locations or require specific tools to collect. Needless to say, that resource grind will take a good while.

One such resource is hidden in the far reaches of the game but will come in handy later. Here’s how to get Driftwood in Hades 2.

Where to find Driftwood in Hades 2

Driftwood is found through the surface in the Rift of Thessaly region. If you don’t have access to the surface yet, you need to play until you get the right incantation to open up the path, then craft it using numerous resources. If you haven’t gotten an incantation like that yet, then you don’t need to worry about Driftwood or a handful of resources either.

Once you make it to the surface, progress your run until you reach the Rift of Thessaly. This region has you jumping from ship to ship as you fight various enemies, though you should keep an eye on the deck the next time you’re up there. These decks have a chance to have a piece of Driftwood on them which doesn’t require a specific tool to be picked up. These look like a branch that’s fallen off a tree. You should find 1-2 each run provided you clear the entire Rift of Thessaly region.

What to do with Driftwood in Hades 2

Driftwood has two uses with the Incantation Cauldron in the Crossroads. The first is a healing rift that can spawn in the Rift of Thessaly, so you can get a heal before dealing with some of the more difficult encounters. The other is more interesting, opening up a fishing pier in the Crossroads where you can fish with your allies, provided you have the right item.
