Hades’s Ability
Passive: Blight
Blight is a Debuff that is applied to the enemy by standard Hades staff hits. This debuff can be refreshed while it is still on the target. When an enemy has Blight, both their magical and physical power are diminished. Additionally, each of Hades’ other abilities has a different result.
Skill 1: Death From Below
At his ground position, Hades bursts up from beneath the surface, dealing damage to all adversaries nearby. The opponent is likewise Slowed if they are Blighted. Blight is applied.
Skill 2: Shroud of Darkness
All foes in a cone in front of Hades are silenced. The opponent is likewise feared if they are blighted. Blight is applied.
Skill 3: Devour Souls
Hades does damage by consuming the souls of his adversaries. Blighted opponents struck by this power are Detonated, causing damage to nearby enemies while healing your allies. Detonating Blights only deal 50% of their damage to enemy gods.
Ultimate: Pillar of Agony
Invoking all nearby hostile souls, Hades summons a vortex that draws opponents toward him and deals damage every.5 seconds for 4 seconds. Hades shortens the 0.4-second cooldowns of his abilities for each opponent struck. The enemy’s Protections are decreased if they are Blighted. Hades also receives protections and a temporary 10% damage reduction.
