In order to face his father's armies across the Underworld, Zagreus must be prepared. And it happens directly in his chambers, with the Mirror of Night offered by Nyx in Hades. Offering various talents, modifiers and bonuses to the Prince of the Underworld, this tool contains many powers capable of helping him in his escapes.
How the Mirror of Night works
The Mirror of Night is a gift from Nyx for Zagreus that comes very soon after the first escape attempt in Hades. It offers many bonuses during your escapes, ranging from a simple damage increase to a resurrection. Available in the apartments of Zagreus, it is possible to unlock and improve each of these talents withObsidian. But many talents are only revealed with Chthonic Keys. Each talent also has a variant to improve, giving access to a different bonus.
All talents and their alternatives
There are a total of 12 talents available, 4 of which are accessible from the start. To unlock all of them it takes 65 Chthonic Keys. But it's theObsidian which is likely to be lacking quickly, with 18 units needed to maximize basic talents, and 800 for variants. So it's not less than 16 Obsidian which are needed to finish augmenting the Mirror of Night in Hades.
