In Hades II, Arcana Cards are a central meta-progression mechanic that provide Melinoë with passive abilities and stat boosts, enhancing her performance during nightly runs. These cards can be unlocked using Ashes and activated by allocating Grasp points, which determine how many cards can be equipped simultaneously. Some cards have unique activation conditions, known as "Awakenings," requiring specific configurations of other cards to be active. Additionally, Arcana Cards can be upgraded to enhance their effects by performing the "Consecration of Ashes" incantation and using resources like Moon Dust and Star Dust.
