Psyche serves as a standard resource in Hades II, utilized for various enhancements such as Incantations, upgrades, and expanding Grasp capacity via the Altar of Ashes.

Essential Equipment

In your arsenal, the Tablet of Peace is crucial. It boosts the likelihood of running into Lone Shades, entities that yield significant Psyche when persuaded.

Frinos the Frog, your loyal companion, enhances the appearance rate of Lone Shades while eliminating the need for their interaction minigame, streamlining your efforts.

Equipping the Poseidon Ring (Vivid) unlocks vital Boons. Ocean’s Bounty can double resource acquisitions, including Psyche, while Sunken Treasure offers immediate rewards that may include additional Psyche.

Strategy to Farm

Initiate runs advancing toward Hecate, the initial boss. Deliberately faltering at this stage allows quick restarts. Prioritize rooms offering Psyche and Charon’s shop for purchases, alongside pursuing Poseidon’s Boons to amplify gains.

Utilize Frinos whenever a Lone Shade surfaces to optimize Psyche intake. Adhering to this approach can net 80–120+ Psyche per attempt.

Maximizing Efficiency

Upgraded weapons cut run durations to roughly five minutes; without enhancements, expect seven to eight. Efficient pacing facilitates 10-12 hourly runs, yielding 800–1,440 Psyche. This speeds up achieving maximum Grasp levels.

For boosted results, tweak Arcana setups to include extra rolls, enhancing Psyche accumulation. Eliminate the Death Defiance Arcana to avoid prolonging encounters with Hecate.
