This Hades 2 Progression Aspect tier list compares the 15 Aspects currently available in early access. The main metrics here are ease of use and reliability. Defensive Weapons and those that don't rely on specific Daedalus Upgrades rank higher on the list. All of the weapons are viable, but some are easier to use than others.
- Weapons appear within each tier in no particular order.
This tier list does NOT compare weapon performance in Fear 32 or beyond. Instead, it is intended as a resource for new players coming into the game, beating the final boss for the first time or doing low Fear runs.

- Witch's Staff, Aspect of Momus Build
- Once you set your Omega Moves up, they repeat and continue to deal damage over time. You need to invest Nightmare to get the full benefits of this Aspect, but even the base version works well.
- Moonstone Axe, Aspect of Charon Build
- The Moonstone Axe has a ton of safety since you're protected from damage while channeling your Special. This Aspect enhances the already excellent base move set and you don't need to invest Nightmare to get it to work well.
- Sister Blades, Aspect of Pan
- Unleash a flurry of homing daggers on your foes with the Cast and Omega Special combo! While you need a few ranks to make the Aspect of Pan truly shine, even the base version works well.
As you collect more Nightmare, push into higher Fear levels, and master the Night's Arms rankings on this list shift around. This tier list covers the 15 Weapon Aspects in Hades 2 from a progression standpoint, by ranking ease of use and versatility.
