Introduction

I gonna try make this a Hades for Dummies guide.

This is how I play Hades, but you are free to leave comments or suggestions below.

How to use this guide

When 1st entering the battlefield buy Vampiric Shroud x3, Boots of the Magi x1 and Healing potion. Now your cash is used up and you are ready to start.

In all game best survivability is to stay behind your critters. Critters provide extra dps, shield and obsticle the enemies.

In Arena games try stand behind critters.
Whenever you hit <50%Hp head back to spawnarea.
I try to use Death from below as an escape ability at 1st.
After you get Mystical Mark you should be able to start doing real mayhem.
Target targets with low health, preferable casters or some melee gods is a good start. This build isnt the best against tanks because of the high hp and protection. But most mid to low hp gods will go down with Pillar of Agony and if not just do a Devour Souls.

In Conquest Games do occational jungeling to get that xp to level but try stay in lane and push if you can.

This build is a Beta build so rebuilds and developing chapters it to expect in the future.

I can agree with you, and this is a work in progress.

I am sorry, but this is not a guide; this is a build with a short explanation. A complete guide for dummies would explain everything in depth including the skills, items, play style, etc.
