How to unlock Aspects in Hades 2

You can get Aspects in Hades 2 once you haveunlocked all five Nocturnal Armsweapons. Once you have the Moonstone Axe, Sister Blades, Witch’s Staff, Umbral Flames and Argent Skull, do a run through Erebus andspeak with Hecateto get the Incantation recipe to brew Aspects.

You may need to repeat the run a few times to trigger the dialogue as Hecate’s responses seem to randomly rotate. For us, we got the recipe after unlocking all weapons and speaking with her a second time in Erebus.
