Where to Find Moss in Hades 2

Moss can be found on the Surface level in Hades 2 near the City of Ephrya. It doesn’t require an item to harvest it, so don’t worry about bringing any specific Gathering Tools for it. You will get one Moss every time you harvest it from a location by pressing “RB” when standing over it.

How to unlock the Surface in Hades 2

The Surface is blocked by a seal in Hades 2, preventing you from going through in the game’s first ten hours. Unlocking the seal requires an incantation called Permeation of Witching-Wards, which will break down the seal and finally give you access to the Surface.

Permeation of Witching-Wards requires the following materials:

  • One Moly
  • One Shadow
  • One Cinder
