Facing off against Scylla and the Sirens in Hades 2 is challenging. Especially since the boss fight puts you up against three different enemies with their own patterns and abilities. As the guardians of Oceanus, this trio presents a daunting challenge, testing your ability to prioritize targets and evade relentless attacks. Here's a guide on how to Defeat Scylla and the Sirens in Hades 2.
Overview of the Boss Fight
Scylla and the Sirens are a trio of bosses you must face to progress through Oceanus and reach the next region of the underworld. The battle is divided into two phases, with the second phase featuring a "Featured Artist" who gains new attacks and increased aggression. The key to victory lies in focusing on one enemy at a time, taking advantage of their immobility when damaged.
Scylla and the Sirens are a trio of bosses, each with unique abilities:
Scylla: The leader of the band, she is slow but well-protected. Her attacks include shrieking, microphone strikes, and firing projectiles. She will always be the last Siren left to defeat.
Roxy (Drummer): Stationary but with massive area-of-effect attacks, covering the entire arena. She is vulnerable to attacks while playing her drum kit.
Jetty (Guitarist): Agile and annoying, she fires stunning blasts and has a charging attack. While not dealing much damage, she can be a nuisance.
Best Weapons and Boons
There is no one-size-fits-all weapon, but sweeping attacks like the Moonstone Axe or explosive power of the Argent Skull can be effective.
Boons that improve your Cast and Omega Cast are useful, such as Apollo's Blinding Sprint and Solar Ring, and Hera's Nexus Sprint.
Battle Strategy
Focus on Roxy (Drummer) first: She is the easiest target and her attacks cover the whole arena.
Deal with Jetty (Guitarist) next: She is fast but deals little damage. Avoid her stunning blasts and take her out to reduce the band's overall damage output.
Finally, defeat Scylla: She moves slowly but is well-protected. Watch out for her various attacks, including projectile bubbles and microphone strikes.
Tips for Success
Use all the space in the arena to lure the Sirens away from each other.
Watch out for the Featured Artist phase, where one Siren becomes empowered with new attacks and extra aggression.
When Scylla summons reinforcements, run circles around her to avoid the spawning enemies and focus on dealing damage.
