On attack you really have a lot of options I prob like athena and dem the best, aphro, artemis, and ares are good too. Important boons here are getting a good dash (divine if you want it to play safe, but tidal dash is amazing for the damage esp stacked with sea storm and other poseidon boons, hangover also nice). Remember with the spin you can dash forward during spin to move a bit. You want to spin to mark enemies then just go crazy with attacks or dash attacks depending on your hammers (I actually really like the dash attack hammer upgrade). I don't tend to touch special unless it's to put a status effect but i'd rather not bother with it. This is strong but not the most fun for me as it's pretty one note, occasionally fun to mix things up I'd recommend stygian soul and going for extra casts but thats not necessary. Just special, dash, cast up to 4x with a huge boost. I think it's gotta be the best weapon in the game to run a beam/blade/trippy shot build. Achilles is just a tool to run a cast build for me. Spear is my worst weapon even though I still have fun with it. TLDR: check the Codex so you can try to get Duo and Legendary boons, and any god can be viable. Needless to say, the call that I previously thought was worthless killed Theseus and the Minotaur extremely quickly, without even requiring me to play aggressively I just let the rifts fly and follow the bosses, while I focused on dodging. Added two more regular ares boons, making the rift larger and longer lasting, and just prior to Theseus I got Ares legendary that made the rift deal more damage on consecutive hits (which happen a ton because the rift follows the enemy). I ended up getting the Duo with Artemis that makes Ares rift call follow people around, making it so I didn't even need to aim. These can really change your run and make your weak points your strong points.įor example, I have always thought Ares call isn't any good, but I had to use it while trying to get all the duo boons. If you have any personal favorites as far as gods, look through their codex and see how to get their Duos/Legendaries. That being said, if you want to stick with the spear, there are still a ton of good combos to use. I personally have found it to be the weakest weapon. TBH, maybe just try some of the other weapons if you are stuck with the spear. Try to burn him down with everything you have while staying on the move. When he calls on the gods, he drops his invulnerability and his shield. He'll always walk away for a bit after throwing his spear, and will always stand still for a bit after doing his big spear sweep. Pay attention to his windup animations, and dash by his attacks as best you can while avoiding the minotaur's attacks. Couple it with stuff like Artemis's dash boon and such and any high +damage attack boons. If you get the hammer upgrade that makes your dash-strike a triple hit, it can be worth going all in on that. Your spin attack will hit foes behind barriers so take advantage of that as it arises. Try to weave dash strikes into your movements for extra dps efficiency. Stick supportive boons on the attack or poseidons to knock foes away. Recalling the spear will consistently hit them in the back so abilities that take advantage of that can be good. With the default spear, you can specialize in long range spamming your special. Once you're more comfortable with the fights, going all in will be the way to go. You can clear rooms with a spin attack > spear throw.Īs for bosses, the Doom effect means you can keep chipping away at their health while focusing on dodging. Since you're constantly attacking with your thrusts the Weak status is up most of the time. The duo boon with Ares and Aphrodite makes it so Doom continuously activates on Weakened foes. The more you invest in Weak and Doom effects the better this gets. Hammer boon: Bouncing special is great, so is any boost to your spin attack Special - Ares, tag enemies with your special and let Doom take care of them. Heavily investing in Zeus usually works out well on anything, especially fast attacking weapons.Īttack - Aphrodite for the damage boost, defensive debuff and the Duo boon with Ares. It lets you easily avoid the big spin attack Hades does as well as other nasty attacks. General tip for surviving: Get extra dashes from the Mirror/Hermes.
