With the attack speed increase, Zagreus aspect is good with Zeus attack (especially if you get Flurry), but it also has fair base damage so it can be good with any +% attack boon especially if you luck into World Splitter. Sea Storm is good on everything, so if you're going Poseidon on your main source of damage it's worth it to grab Zeus on something you don't normally use like Call and try to roll it. Overall: You want Zeus or Dionysus on fast weak attacks, and a +% to damage boon on slow strong attacks. These are just my opinions, and they won't always apply for every play style or every run. ![]() Hades remains a roguelike at its core, and part of the genre is the expectation that your first clear is really the beginning of the journey, rather than its finale.Disclaimer: There is no wrong way to play Hades (as long as you make sure to pet Cerberus). There's plenty more to do after you fight through Elysium. You may be wondering, since Hades is a game with a story and an end goal, does it just roll credits and kick you back to a menu once you achieve that end? Keeping it vague for the sake of avoiding spoilers: No, it does not. There are various ways to increase your likelihood of being offered duo boons, like the Gods' Legacy upgrade in the Mirror of Night.) Escaping the Underworld is not the end ( Update: Turns out the codex index only shows up after your first duo boon. Keep an eye out, and if you figure out how to make it appear, let me know. It's supposed to appear in the contractor's list of work orders for a cost of 50 gems at some point after you buy the Fated List of Minor Prophecies, but there must be some other trigger required because it's not appearing for everyone. I know how useful the codex index is from watching other people use it, but I don't have it myself. This upgrade lets you view each god's boons from their page in the codex, which Achilles gives you after your first few escape attempts. Trying every boon at least once to cross them off the Fated List of Minor Prophecies can be a hassle. Boons that affect your call won't appear if you don't have one, and duo boons-powerful gifts that synergize the powers of two gods-usually have strict requirements. Some boons are only offered in the right circumstances. (Image credit: Supergiant Games) The codex index is worth buying if you see it When combined with boons that make your god gauge fill up faster so you can use it more often, charm can simply turn off a boss multiple times in a single fight. ![]() One more thing to note: It can be useful just to get a boss off your back for several seconds. What's more, enemies do bonus damage to each other, just like traps do more damage to enemies than to Zagreus. Though the boon description doesn't mention this, it also causes a substantial amount of damage when it hits someone. What's the point of Aphrodite's aid, then? Useful when you're in a room full of shades, but some of the toughest enemies in Hades are bosses that only have friends around for the occasional phase. The goddess of love has a call that charms enemies so they attack each other for several seconds. Every developer thinking about difficulty modes and accessibility features could learn from it. You can turn god mode on at any point, and having it on makes no difference to the story or the achievements. You shouldn't feel guilty about using it, because Supergiant clearly don't think you should. You will still die a bunch, but it transforms Hades from a tricky roguelike into something a little more accessible. ![]() It gives you 20 percent resistance to all damage, and each time you die that resistance goes up by two percent until it maxes out at 80. God mode is what Hades calls easy difficulty. (Image credit: Supergiant Games) You won't be punished for using god mode
