Improved Boon Info UI – Hades II Mod
This mod refines how boon information is displayed on all Olympian boon givers page during a run.
Explicit boon categories
Boons are split into categories based on their availability to the player:
- Picked: already acquired (and not sold/sacrificed).
- Unavailable – Sacrifice Required: takes a slot that is already occupied and thus requires a sacrifice offering.
- Unavailable – Keepsake Required: requires forcing an out-of-pool god via keepsake.
- Available: any other boon not in the above categories.
This approach makes it immediately obvious:
- Which boons you already have,
- Which ones you can pick up next,
- Which ones are locked behind sacrifice,
- Which ones require forcing a god with a keepsake.
It avoids guesswork and reduces UI ambiguity without touching gameplay logic.

Default
All boons are shown, with title coloring based on their rarity (white/blue/purple/orange/green).
Modded
Titles coloring now follows the logic:
- light green: it is currently picked.
- dark blue: it (or one of its unfulfilled requirements) requires a god keepsake
- dark red: it (or one of its unfulfilled requirements) requires a sacrifice offering.
- white/blue/purple/orange/green: same as before for all available boons
Boons that require a sacrifice also display the boon that would be exchanged in the process, reusing the existing behaviour.
Requirements listing
Default
When looking at requirements for a given boon, the only information we get is:
- a boon in the requirements is picked: boon name colored in white instead of grey
- a requirement is fulfilled: heading colored in light green instead of white
Modded
Boons of the NeedsSacrifice category are colored in dark red.
Those of the NeedsKeepsake take dark blue coloring
Headings coloring is now changed as well, based on the availability of the required boons:
- light green: same as before, a required boon is picked
- white: at least one boon is available
- dark blue: no available boon and at least one requires adding a new god to the maxed out pool
- dark red: all boons require a sacrifice.
Future updates
- Add the possibility to choose the coloring to apply to categories
- Perhaps a fifth category (both requiring keepsake AND sacrifice)
Compatibility
- Should be safe with all mods that don't interact with Boon info listing.
- Language independant
