Cerberus's snake tail spits venom that passes through and damages Enemies. If Cerberus's dog heads are Alert, they then also spit venom when the ability is fired. Each head is alerted upon hitting an Enemy with a Basic Attack, and all are alerted after Ghastly Breath. Each projectile that hits the same target deals 20% less damage, but hitting an Enemy with all 4 Stuns them.

Chapter Title

I'm no pro, and I haven't even played cerb much. This isn't meant to turn anyone into anything special, but I was in a match where we had 2 guardians and did a damage build just for fun. Thought I would share what I built.

Early game you will be super squish and should be careful not to overextend too much without support. Mid to late game you can walk all over other gods 1v1 and even 2v1 with lifesteal and insane dps. I wouldn't recommend doing if you are only guardian on your team, but as we know in non-ranked matches you see all kinds of crazy setups. So if you happen to be the 2nd or 3rd guardian on your team and need some damage, this is fun to play.

Combo order: 3>>>2>>>1>>>4 (most will be dead after 3>2>1 if ghastly isn't cc'd)
