Hades II Boss Rush

Hades II mod turning Dream Dives into a boss rush. Compatible with Zag's Journey bosses.

Use the Dream Dive Tweaks mod window to configure the number/order of bosses and other settings.

Regular boss rush mode

Each biome starts at the final shop with +800 gold and an infinite Travel Deal.

The non-final shops have been altered to have these reward pools. Chronos/Typhon shop reward pools have been left unaltered. The usual restrictions for Hammers, Hermes and Selene still apply.

Pool 1

  • Health
  • Pom of Power
  • Hermes

Pool 2

  • God boon
  • Hammer

Pool 3

  • Mana
  • Selene
  • Path of Stars

Each boss drops a random NPC loot (Echo, Artemis, etc.). The penultimate boss drops two of these loot items.

NEW: Final Gauntlet mode

Puts a boss rush at the end of the Dream Dive. Vow of Rivals will be forced off during the Dream Dive and will be forced on during the gauntlet.

Installation

Use r2modman by ebkr or GitHub.

It is recommended to backup your save from %USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Hades II\Profile*.sav in case there are unknown issues with the mod.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide. Hades II uses the game's built-in mod import — unzip the pack and place it where the readme says.
