Hades 2 Weapons & Boons Tier List (Post Olympic Update)

[@benswitzer4679]

Apollo is good specifically with the axe. It significantly increases the damage area of your regular swing, and you basically become ranged. This is true of your whirlwind as well. Daze on sprint is also amazing with a net 20% DR with a good roll. Combining Apollo with Hermes’ dodge you’re mitigating nearly half the damage. Very important for high fear runs. I’d also say Haepgestus is very situational. The cooldown is far too long. But if you are using the staff, it’s perfect because you are mostly ranged. If you get the epic version is procs very often too. The other thing I like about him is his buffs don’t override any of the other gods

Aphrodite's boons are definitely an S+

It is funny how much different my good boons tierlist would be. I would agree with Demeter being S tier. Hephaestus is a god that i'm using the least along with Selena. You can say that the "damage on spiecial for example is huge" but base 14 sec CD on 400dmg is nothing realy and I hate CD mechanics in general. I would say that he has some decent defensive boons. Selena on the other hand gives you staff that i'm forgetting to use, and when I'm using it (mostly meteor) it's so hard to hit someone. It's Hades. Everything moves so fast. So eather you have to CC someone for 4 seconds or face tank it (especialy on the surfece). I would bring Aphrodite at least tier higher. She gives ton's of damage and damage reduction, free curse on enemies nearby. And the last one biggest change for me would be Chaos. It's S tier imo. The potiential that it gives for your build is insane and it's good for everything you are playing with. Problem with it is that it gives a lot of options so not always you get what you came for. Apollo is also good god. It has OP legendary, dazle mechanic and backstab damage combines very well with blades.

Yeah it depends on ppl's playstyles anything can be S tier. Agreed Aphrodite can be higher, I did a few more runs and see some nice usages with her dmg reductions. I think maybe there have some adjustments done that makes her boons feel better now. I dont mind the cool down mechanics, a couple of pom upgrades and ggs
