A small quality-of-life mod for Hades II that improves how prioritized keepsakes work at the start of a run.
The mod has not been fully tested yet and there may be some bugs. But don't worry, worst case scenario would be a game crash.
Hades II allows prioritizing a single keepsake so it is automatically equipped when a run starts. In practice, this has a few drawbacks:
This mod removes that friction by letting you set up multiple favorites once and letting the game handle the rest.
Multiple keepsakes can be marked as prioritized
When a run starts:
No game save or progression data is ever modified !
The result is a "set up once and forget it" workflow: you naturally cycle through your favorite starting keepsakes without manual switching.
Once the game has been launched once, you can modify prioritized list through the game interface. You can also directly modify the configuration from:
%AppData%/r2modmanPlus-local/HadesII/profiles/<YourProfile>/ReturnOfModding/config/SMarBe-Random_Starting_Keepsake.cfg
By default, keepsakes are randomized at run start. This can be changed to only randomize when entering training room or by interacting with the oath of the unseen (as long as you unlocked the incantation). For this, set the property randomizeAtRunStart to false.Check out my others QoL mods, those are all cross-compatible and meant to be used together:
