[Hades2] Any weapon can be configured! Zeus Dash Build

December 16, 2024May 23, 2025

Hades 2)Introducing recommended builds!
*Currently in early access. Specifications may change after official release. We will try to update as much as possible.

This time, we will introduce the "Zeus Dash Build" that can be easily put together with any weapon. This build is aimed at clearing Fear 32, but I think it will also be useful for those who are trying to clear levels other than Fear 32.

About Zeus Dash

Zeus DashCosts 3 mana and deals lightning damage every 0.15 secondsTherefore, the increase in damage caused by rank and level up is greater than for other characters, so choose this character as a priority.

As shown in the pictureJust move around the enemy!

List of merits when you actually clear the level (photos)

Important Merits Required for Build

Since lightning strikes deal basic damage, they work very well with [Soul Leap] and [Double Strike Thunder].

[Soul Advancement] is a merit that helps you when you are a little short on processing speed in the early stages. [Double Strike Thunder] increases the number of lightning strikes by a large amount, greatly increasing processing speed.

It's not something you want right away, but if you have Hermes' Merit [Explosive Swiftness], it will nullify the damage you take when dashing. As you rank it up, the number of blocks will increase, so your stability will increase by a lot.

Zeus Dash alone can sometimes have low damage and slow processing speed. Therefore, to raise the level, collect a lot of Hera's Merits and aim to greatly increase the level of Zeus Dash with Duo Merit [King's Counsel]. It doesn't always come out, but if you're lucky, the damage will increase significantly.

EVEIVE

When combined with Echo's Blessing, Zeus Dash can reach Level 40, so it's fun to see it get that strong!

Build Configuration Priority

Zeus Dash, acquire [Soul Leap] and [Double Strike Thunder]

First, get Zeus' dash. Reset by intervening in fate until you get a higher rank! If you don't get it within two tries, get attacked and start over. If you can get [Soul Advance] between the first and second stages, it will be easier to advance through the sections, so try to get it if you can.

Securing Hephaestus Merit and Obtaining the Pomegranate of Power

Since he moves around the enemy and attacks, let's aim for Hephaestus's merit that prevents damage. If only other merits are available, let's aim for it even if it means using Fate Intervention. Also, if the level of Zeus Dash is low, the processing speed will be slow, so let's prioritize raising the level with Pomegranate of Strength, Duo [King's Honor], and Echo's Blessing!

Magic Circle Merit, HP, and Armor Securing

I want to hold back the enemy with the magic circle, so if it doesn't come out, other merits are fine, but I want Demeter or Aphrodite's magic circle merit. Also, let's prioritize securing HP and armor.

Acquire things that increase survivability (if you're taking [Royal Honor], acquire a ton of Hera's Merit!)

Acquire skills that will help you take less damage, such as increasing your evasion rate and movement speed!

It's not guaranteed to come out, so it depends on luck, but if you're aiming for the King's Honor, make sure you save the Spatula's merit.

Magic Card

EVEIVE

This is the one I was able to clear with confidence. The damage I received increased with the 32 level of horror.The impression that XXⅢ (23) had a very strong [power]Also, you can recover mana.IX [The Unseen One]is required.

Promise

Here are the settings for Kyokyo 32. The difficulty level varies greatly depending on the settings, so feel free to modify it to suit your preferences.

Familiar

EVEIVE

The best recommendation isHecuba, runner upRakiI think so. Since I often run low on mana, Hecuba's mana boost is huge!

gift

	Gift Candidate
1st page Erebos	▷ Thundercloud Bracelet (Zeus)
2nd page Oceanus	▷ Adamant Shard (Hephaestus) ▷Sheaf of barley (Demeter) ▷Beautiful hand mirror (Aphrodite)
3rd page Field of Lamentations	▷Fig leaf (Dionysus) ▷Silver Drop (Hermes) ▷Transcendent Embryo (Chaos)
4th floor Tartarus	▷White Skill Horn (Artemis) "▷Fig leaf (Dionysus)" ▷Spider Thread Belt (Arachne)

Zeus: A candidate for stage 1. Keep rerolling until you get a rare dash.
Hephaestus: Candidate for 2nd level. If you have a way to recover mana, take it. Armor and invincibility are the best.
Demeter: Candidate for stages 2 and 3. If you can get Hephaestus's Merit early, it will be a candidate. It goes well with Magic Circle and Gale!
Aphrodite: Candidate for stage 2. Like Demeter, she can hold back enemies, so she's a great match!
Hermes: Candidate for stage 3. I don't use the attack speed and magic infusion speed much, but the movement speed increase is stronger than I thought! Let's get it!
chaos: Candidate for stage 3. There is a random element to it so it's not very stable, but depending on your merits you can be super strengthened so it's still possible!!!
Dionysus: Candidate for stages 3 and 4. Enemies are generally strong and you will often die in an instant, so you can proceed safely. Choose this when you are low on HP and in difficulty.
Artemis: Candidate for stage 4. Critical hits are justice! Your processing speed will increase dramatically! This is the best option if you have a lot of armor or things that can reduce damage taken!
Arachne: Candidate for stage 4. Goes great with Hephaestus's Merit! As long as you have some armor, it will increase, so your stability will go up.

Merit options (normal, special, magic circle, dash, mana recovery, moon fall)

	Recommended (higher recommendation)
Normal Attack	▷You can take it or not
Special Attacks	▷You can take it or not
Magic Circle	▷Demeter ▷Aphrodite ▷Zeus (▷ Spatula)
dash	▷Zeus
Mana Recovery	▷Hera → If you want to obtain the Duo Merit's [King's Honor], you will go to great lengths to get it. ▷Aphrodite ▷Zeus ▷Apollo
Moon Fall Technique	▷ Changing phases of the moon ▷Awakening of the Underworld ▷Curse of the Night

Normal Attack: You can basically complete it with Zeus Dash, so you don't have to take it!
Special Attacks: This is also the same as above.
Magic Circle: Demeter or Aphrodite are best for stopping movement and increasing stability. If you have the double-shot Thunderbolt, Zeus might be an option!
dash: Zeus' Choice
Mana Recovery: I recommend Hera and Aphrodite because they don't need any action to recover mana! I also recommend Zeus and Apollo, but they require action to recover mana, so I guess I'll compromise and take them. That's the image I have.
Moon Fall Technique: Choose something that will stop the enemy's movement or make you invincible! Personally, I like to choose "Awakening of the Underworld" because I can use it when I'm in trouble and I'm going to get hit.

Merit (assistance)

Be sure to choose merits that increase your firepower and survivability (increased HP, decreased attack power, etc.)!

Which merits are useful and whether their effects are offset will depend on the situation, so you may want to choose based on your preference. However, I have summarized the merits that I would prioritize.

Olympus God	recommendation
Zeus	▷Thunder Spear A compromise for when you have nothing else to choose. It becomes a bit stronger if you have 【Double Strike Thunder】.
Spatula	▷Extraordinary Elegance Damage UP if no commons are present
Poseidon	▷Flood prevention measures Reduces damage taken. Simple and powerful! ▷Gift of the Sea Merits sometimes increase. You can get them in the compromise slot! ▷Blessings of the Ocean This is also a compromise as you will be able to earn more gold coins!
Demeter	▷Cold wind It slows down the enemy's movements! Highly recommended as the enemy's attack speed is fast at Fear 32! ▷Winter Armor Nullify damage once! The strongest! ▷Cryogenic storage If you have an attack that can freeze, you can take it! If the freezing time is long, you can attack unilaterally, so it is recommended. ▷Rare Crops It is a good idea to choose items that are low in rarity.
Apollo	▷Projection of the Ideal When no hit occurs, firepower increases ▷Supernova expansion It goes well with Demeter and Aphrodite's magic circle!
Aphrodite	▷Shameless If you can create a situation where your HP doesn't decrease because of armor, you're at your strongest!! ▷Crime It uses a lot of mana!
Hephaestus	▷Heavy Armor Maximum armor 100. Simple and strong. ▷Iron Disguise Armor is assigned to each section. It's much easier to clear the level with or without it! ▷Excellent condition You're invincible for the first few seconds! You can annihilate enemies without worrying about anything, so it's powerful! ▷Iron weight If it's Hephaestus's Merit, he should have a lot of Earth Merit, so damage will go up!
Hestia	▷ Burnt Offerings Depending on the chosen merit, you can choose. However, I usually don't use it.

The Merit of Chaos

If it's stage 1 or 2, you should go in. You can go in from stage 3 onwards, but it will be more difficult to beat and you will be more likely to die along the way. If you get "Ixion's Flash" at Charon's Spring, make it a priority to get it.

	The Merit of Chaos
priority	▷ Movement and running speed UP ▷Mana (recovery, reduced consumption, maximum amount) ▷Increase in each attribute
compromise	▷Strengthen the magic circle ▷HP recovery, maximum amount increased

The Merits of Artemis and Hermes

Choose the one that will increase your survivability.

	The Merit of Artemis
priority	▷Understanding weaknesses Every time damage is dealt, it is occasionally a critical hit. ▷The hunt begins It's super powerful because it increases the speed at which you can deal with weak enemies!
compromise	▷Death Declaration Adds markings that make it easier to deal critical damage. Fairly strong.

	The Merit of Hermes
priority	▷Blast Speed→ Even if it's rare, it's better than nothing. Be sure to get it. Nullify damage several times while sprinting ▷Increasing malice Increases damage for 30 seconds each time you defeat an enemy ▷Evasion Technique Avoid enemy attacks ▷A difficult target Enemy bullet flight speed DOWN ▷Unreasonable task Damage dealt increased by 20%!
compromise	▷A light that illuminates the darkness Attack and movement speed up ▷Agility of Limbs Normal, special, magic circle speed UP

Recommended Legendary Duos

Here are some recommended legendary duos.

*These are merits that are easy to acquire in terms of build. They can also be acquired with other merits, so please use this as a reference!

Acquisition conditions: Hera's mana recovery + Zeus dash

EVEIVE

This is the duo merit you should aim for if possible. If you can get this while you have three or more Hera merits, you've practically cleared the level.

This is the duo you'll want to aim for if you have the merits of Hera and Hephaestus.

EVEIVE

50% damage reduction is really strong. The strongest.

A legendary merit that I would love to get.

EVEIVE

It's extremely powerful as it can essentially kill one-fifth of enemies in an instant.

Hammer of Daedalus (weapon upgrade)

No need to take

summary

This time, we introduced a Zeus Dash build that aims to clear Kyoko 32. This build can be configured with any weapon, so please try using it when you just can't clear it.

It's difficult to clear the game with your fear level raised, so at first, you should aim to raise the rank of your gifts and weapons, and to adjust your tactics and merit choices. You'll be able to clear the game naturally.

Try out various builds and enjoy the world of Hades 2! I hope this article was helpful.
