WHERE & HOW TO FARM Where to farm House of Hades character interactions and the Keepsake display cabinet beside the escape route.
Giving Nectar to most characters for the first time grants their Keepsake. Later gifts build relationship progress, so the first gift is a distinct early collection milestone. Choose a character whose Keepsake supports the kind of run you want, then equip it from the cabinet before a later attempt.
Before you go Obtain Nectar from a run or another reward. Meet an eligible character and have access to gifting. Identify a Keepsake that supports your upcoming run plan. Return to the House after collecting Nectar. Find the character whose first gift you want to make and interact with them. Choose the Nectar gift option and confirm the gift. Open the Keepsake cabinet and check that the new Keepsake is available. Select that Keepsake before beginning a later escape attempt. After using it, reassess whether to collect further Nectar for another character or affinity. Farming tips The first gift to most characters grants the Keepsake; later gifts are relationship progress rather than another Keepsake unlock. Prioritize a Keepsake that helps with your planned boon, survival, or run consistency. Repeat, collect and use Each character’s first Keepsake gift is a one-time unlock; collecting Nectar and gifting it to other characters can continue.
Common mistakes Expecting a Keepsake from every later Nectar gift; the first-gift unlock is the key milestone. Forgetting to equip the unlocked item; select it at the cabinet before departure. Spending Nectar without choosing a target; keep enough for the character whose Keepsake is next useful. When to stop or switch Stop targeting first-gift unlocks when the Keepsakes you want are collected; use later Nectar for affinity or another planned purpose.
