Special - Ares, tag enemies with your special and let Doom take care of them. Sometimes I go for demeter on special, but thats only good if you get the boon that does damage once you hit 10 chill stacks. It was fucking insane. But best is stygian soul, +cast chaos boons, and hermes stuff. Demeter - Every enemy, even bosses, has 10% less health, and throw in some crowd control as a bonus. Duo (Dionysus) Any Boons you find have superior effects. They can be offered from either god, but have prerequisites from both gods before obtaining the boon. Demeter and Zeus especially. Ares’ Doom is decent on the rail.
