Chapter Title

Thanatos' play style is to use his 1 skill first this does the most damage out of all of his skills and then use his basic attacks to bring the enemies down if needed your third skill is used to also do this but it is also saved for last near the later part of the game to finish off enemies. Your alt should only be used to get out of situations or to kill when you have the chance. Later on you will know who you can kill easy if that is the case you can use your alt to get to them easily and then use your 1 and basic attacks to kill them.


PO #1 - Also buy 4 Health and 4 Mana potions, every time you die make sure you have at least 3 health and 3 mana potions before going back into the frey. Blink allows you to jump ahead use this to get to other enemy gods.

PO #2 - Finish off with Ninja Tabi's, and then start building for Devourer's Gauntlets.

PO #3 - Finish off Devourer's Gauntlets, and kill minions till all 75 stacks are complete this gives you health back per basic hit. Then start building for Rage.

(AFTER THIS POINT IS WHERE THANATOS STARTS TO DO WELL, ANYTHING BEFORE THIS IS HIS WEAK POINT!)

PO #4 - Finish off Rage, this gives Thanatos 200-300 crit damage per basic hit! Starting building towards Qin's Sais! Get Sanctuary when ever possible!

PO #5 - Finish off Qin's Sais, this will give Thanatos really fast basic attacks! Start building Deathbringers!

PO #6 - Finish off Deathbringer, After this point is where Thanatos will do 600-650 Crit max! Start building the final item which is Wind Demon by selling Deaths Toll when you can buy the first part of Wind Demon.

PO #7 - Finish off Wind Demon.
