Zeus and Poseidon have a Duo Boon that procs lightning damage whenever you knockback a foe. Hestia (Rail) – Zeus and Poseidon – Ghost Buster Build
To help guide you in knowing which has what boons, here’s a quick rundown.
Mostly this is done by managing what you decide to equip on the first two stages of each run, but well, no two playthroughs are exactly the same, so you’ll never know if you’ll run into a bonus challenge or a freebie here and there. Then strategize how you’ll be able to actually complete it before facing of with Hades, though it’s much better to have it completed before leaving stage 3, Elysium. So that’s it, decide what the major component of each build should be, which shouldn’t be more than 2. But the chances of me netting all of these in one game and clearing it is another story. Hermes can potentially speed up the attack speed of the Special as well. If I’m an absolute madman, I’d try to obtain a second duo-boon with Dionysus, which boosts critical chance.
#HADES BUILDS UPGRADE#
I would want to get a Daedalus upgrade that improves the special attack in general. The rest that I will build around it are more of extras, but that’s the core of the build. This boon will make crit damage substantially stronger so long as the target on the receiving is afflicted by Aphrodite’s debuff. So I can choose to either swap out to another keepsake for the third stage or just hold on to Aphrodite’s if I haven’t gotten the Duo Boon, Heart Rend. I can pick any other attack boon, but I chose this because when your active boons come from certain gods, it’s possible to get a passive boon that can only be attained with Aphrodite and Artemis together. This inflicts a weak status on the enemy, so they can’t deal much damage while I’m spraying arrows at their face. On the next stage I’ll be swapping my keepsake to Aphrodite’s, and get her boon on my attack. Proceed to finish the stage with the best stuff I can get away with. So I equip Artemis’ keepsake so I can reliably get boon at the start, then pick her to enhance the special so that all the homing arrows can crit. For example, I’ll want to build around the alternate bow form, Chiron. Normally, you want to capitalize on just one or two aspects of a weapon. Think about what you want to take advantage of that weapon with. Okay, so now that we have things ready to get things going, pick a weapon you want to try building around. Think of this as optional if you just want to have the best ones as consistently as possible. (more on this later)įinally, if you want to get really good or the best possible Boons, you’ll want to unlock this section of the Nyx’s Mirror.
After clearing the game once you should be able to uncover their alternate versions, like a bow that has homing arrows or a sword that turns you into a tank. Next you’ll want to have equipment available to you. Holding on to a keepsake allows you to meet the god who gave it to you more often, and improves what you can get out of them. Handing them one Nectar each when you see them is all you need to do.
#HADES BUILDS PLUS#
Grinding them to level up is a plus but the fact that you have them should be good enough. Get the keepsakes from each Olympian God.
#HADES BUILDS HOW TO#
So let me help you out by teaching you how to create a build so you can play around with some ideas like I did.įirst of all, you’ll want to actually be able to get boons and handle equipment you want to use. Even so, getting the build reliably seems to be a challenge. I don’t think I’ll bother to cover how it’s such a beautifully designed game on both aesthetic terms and game direction, but I’ll tell you how to enjoy it a bit more.Įveryone I know who picks up this game seems to have trouble deciding on how to make a build, at least if they’re not looking to go online. Tweaked to be interesting to play at every turn while keeping the game on your terms.
The other is the fact that the game’s so well designed. Why is this? Because the game’s story literally progresses as you complete each playthrough, for one. So far, the game can be finished under 30 minutes, but I’ve been playing it for more than 60 hours. Making titles that, time after time, captures the interest of fans and anyone looking for a good game to play.Īfter a few weeks of being nudged to pick up the game, I finally gave it a try. This indie developer has somehow managed to top itself through the years.
