Keys to the Build

Shoes of Focus and Chronos' Pendant early is key. Hades is an ability based god and needs a lot of cooldown reduction to reach his full potential.

Rod of Tahuti and Doom orb give you the magical power you need.

The Rod of Asclepius and Ethereal Staff give you some decent magical power, but more importantly movements speed, health, and some health back from damaging abilities.

When combining the cooldown reduction, magical power, and health from these item, it is a recipe for greatness. The quick burst damage and spam ability of your moves makes for a deadly foe.

Have fun.

It definitely seems to be something unique to what I've seen on many hades builds but after testing it out a few times I still can't say straying from life steal is really the play I also am curious if you use rod of ace for the team heal that hades sorta has
