Hades Build Guide

Beginners What should Build?

This is just a quick and easy build guide to show what’s tried and true for the base forms of each weapon (without any upgrades). It’s only intended as a starting point. I encourage you to experiment with anything you come across that looks interesting!

I’ve listed what’s typically the main source of damage for each weapon and how to make it work. I’ve also listed the most-commonly picked dashes for each weapon because dashes can be pretty important.

Stygian Blade – Stygius

Hades Build Guide 1 — ^{Hades – Build Guide}

Focus on Attack and Dash-Strike as your primary source of damage.

Attack: Heartbreak Strike (Aphrodite), Divine Strike (Athena), Deadly Strike (Artemis), or Curse of Agony (Ares)
Dash: Divine Dash (Athena) or Hunter Dash (Artemis)

Eternal Spear – Varatha

Shield of Chaos – Aegis

Hades Build Guide 3 — ^{Hades – Build Guide}
