    How to Reunite Achilles and Patroclus in Hades

    Zagreus asking Achilles about Patroclus.

    In the story of Hades, Achilles finds his way to the House of Hades and eventually becomes the trainer and mentor of Zagreus. Patroclus, on the other hand, has spent most of his afterlife sulking in Elysium.

    When you first encounter Patroclus, you won’t even know of his name yet. Even though Achilles has mentioned his name several times, you will be oblivious to his true identity until he finally reveals it himself after speaking to him several times. This is also the only time you can start giving him gifts to raise your affinity with him.

    Relaying the Message

    Patroclus asking Zagreus to relay a message to Achilles.

    To reunite Achilles and Patroclus, you must simply speak to both of them constantly and give them Nectar whenever you can. You will need to have handed 6 Nectars to both to move this quest forward. Once this is done and you’ve spoken to both enough, Patroclus will ask Zagreus to relay a message to Achilles: “risk it all.”

    Relay this message to Achilles and he will begin contemplating on his relationship with his former lover. The next time you meet Achilles, he will then request you to alter his pact with Hades.

    Altering Achilles’ Pact

    Achilles' pact from the Administrative Chambers.

    Altering Achilles’ pact requires you to interact with Nyx. After Achilles’ request, speak with Nyx immediately regarding the pact. She will then direct you to its location in the Administrative Chambers.

    Once you’ve checked the location on the Chamber, head to the House Contractor and purchase the Hero’s Sacrifice work order for 5 Diamonds. Once the work order is purchased, speak to Achilles again and he will thank you for your assistance and tell you that he’ll head for Elysium immediately.

    The next time you come across Patroclus in Elysium, whose demeanor has greatly improved this time around, Achilles will be there with him as well.
