Players can essentially run around to different mobs placing Doom on them so that by the time a player gets back to them they can replace the Doom and kill the Mob. The amount of damage will depend on what tier a Boon is, though in many cases it sits around 100 damage. While I love the Status Curse Doom, I’m not a huge fan of Blade Rifts, though the chance to simply receive more damage is always alluring to me.ĭoom can be extremely powerful, especially when it is attached to a player’s basic attack as it will essentially place a marker on an affected enemy so that they take damage after 1 second. So, please… don’t get stuck in the same situation as me.Īres is an interesting god as he has one very effective form of damage and the other is less useful, though it will depend on your play style.Įssentially Ares focusses on increasing the damage a player can output and is a god that I would recommend sticking to, unless there’s a better god offered to you.Īres comes with the Status Curse Doom and has the ability to create Blade Rifts. Admittedly there was a run that I did where only Aphrodite approached me and let me tell you, it was the absolute worst run I ever had. In most cases I would avoid Aphrodite, no matter how beautiful she is. In hopes of not spoiling too much, I won’t cover anything on this, but will link to a post when I write one on optimizing damage. The main benefit to Charmed seems to be it’s usage against bosses as in many cases mobs can be smashed with a couple of hits, though it needs to be noted that Charmed does not last very long on bosses, making it less effective.Įssentially Charmed will act as a stun against a boss and does not react as other Status Curses do, meaning that if players are trying to apply two Status Curses to deal extra damage, Charmed does not count. During this time players will be safe from all the affected mobs, meaning that players can avoid killing these mobs until mobs that are not affected by Charmed are killed. If a player is lucky enough to get a Rare, Epic or Legendary Boon players can effectively increase the amount of damage the mob loses and the amount of time the Status Curse lasts for.Ĭharmed on the other hand will cause enemies to begin fighting for you. The Weak Status Curse will reduce the affected Mob’s damage by at least 30% for 3 seconds. While survivability is important in Hades, the reality is that damage is much more important in Hades, as a dead mob deals no damage. I will cover which gods I personally prefer and will write more in-depth articles about each of the god’s Boons, covering which ones I tend to look for when I’m doing a run of Hades.Īphrodite is a god I personally avoid as I don’t find her passives to be the most game breaking or game changing.Įssentially Aphrodite has access to two different passives, being Weak and Charmed, helping players to survive against mobs more easily. The following guide will take you through the basics of Boons, and while I will not be covering each gods specific Boons in this post, it will take you through the basics of what kind of passives each god gives you so you have an idea of which gods you will prefer over others. Now, if you’ve ever played Hades, you know that the game contains a great deal of RNG, meaning that players cannot reliably create their build of passives, though getting a hang of which gods have more beneficial passives can be a game changer as it will ensure that players don’t spend money on useless upgrades at Charon or prioritize a god over another when having to make decisions.Īt the end of the day, many things will come down to a player’s play style, however, it’s undeniable that some gods are much more powerful than other gods. In my early days of grinding Hades, I had difficulty trying to make decisions on which rewards I should collect as while I vibed with the aesthetics of many of the gods thought that certain perks were impactful, the reality was that I was making a lot of poor decisions earlier on and quite possibly could have “beaten” the game faster. Realistically I couldn’t wait for my “Adventure Days” on Twitch where I got to play hours of Hades and even more shocking, this was the first game I broke my rule of “I won’t play it off stream” because I was completely hooked. While admittedly Hades was a bit tough and confusing to get into at first, the learning curve for the game was much faster than most other games that I have played. Hades is a game that I have been obsessed with for the past 2 months, finding myself completing the game over and over again simply due to how smooth the fighting and mechanics are.
