How to get specific boons?

[Silent]

Currently, I'm trying to get;
- Proud Bear from Athena
- Blown Kiss from Aphrodite
- Peer Pressure from Dionysus

But they aren't dropping. Do I need to progress in some areas to get those boons at all?

Some boons have prerequsites in form of other boons
for instance blown kiss is an upgrade for crush shot.
Or proud bear requises you to have any boon related call.

https://hades.gamepedia.com/Hades_Wiki there used to be nice "flowcharts" on how to get specific boons on the wiki.. but i just can't find them atm.

There's an in game listing as well, I can't remember at what point you get offered it but look out for the Codex Index upgrade in the Work Orders section at the house contractor.

That boon list, accessed by opening the codex and going to the relevant god in the Chthonic or Olympian section, will tell you all the prerequisites. Any boon which has an active prophecy will also be marked with the scroll icon as well.

Some boons are easier to unlock with certain upgrades to the mirror, like switching to the green side for the +10% chance for duo and legendary boons. Taking keepsakes for any relevant god to the first and second floor helps a lot too.

The site says I can get "Peer Pressure" by getting "Drunken Flourish" and I've now gone through 4 Dionysus rooms and still no Peer pressure. How many rounds of this can take place to get "Peer Pressure"?

[Fringehunter7719]

It's random, you get offered 3 boons for which you are eligible, so you can go four rooms and not be offered it. The more boons you take from a god the less are left in their pool for the run though, so the chance improves each time.

Since you're going for a non-legendary and non-duo boon the opposite advice would apply to the case that I gave before - don't use the Gods' Legacy mirror option which increases the chance of a legendary or duo boon that might displace the one you want. You can also try and avoid the requirements for duo boons to keep the pool small and thus the chance of Peer Pressure higher.

There is also the mirror option to reroll boons. Thats what Im using.

[BoogieBoX]

The best way to hunt for a specific boon (for prophecies) is to equip a given god's keepsake, and pick Fated persuasion in the mirror (the last, most expensive one). Then you need to be careful with what boon you need to be given beforehand, in order to unlock the one you want. Use a dice to reroll options if the boon you want doesn't show up.

[Non-Lethal Gamer]

you need to have certain prerequisite boons for those specific legendaries or duos to appear. as its redundant for the game to forcefeed you a pointless legendary. use reroll stacks and the select god's keepsake to ensure their presence in the run.
