Using Passive (Strength from Pain) and skill 3 (Mitigate Wounds) to fight and punish anyone who dares to fight you.
Hercules’s Ability
Passive: Strength from Pain
Every time a god of the enemy deals damage to Hercules, he receives a stacking self-buff that boosts his Physical Power.
Skill 1: Driving Strike
Hercules unleashes a powerful blow that sends all adversaries fleeing while also wounding and stunning them. During the dash, Hercules is immune to knockback.
Skill 2: Earthbreaker
Hercules slams the ground, unleashing a shockwave that harms all foes in its path. At the conclusion of the shockwave, enemies are launched into the air in Hercules’ direction.
Skill 3: Mitigate Wounds
Hercules instantly heals himself and gains increased attack speed, magical protection, and physical defense for the following four seconds. At the conclusion of the term, a portion of the damage he sustained during this time is given back to him as an additional heal.
Ultimate: Excavate
A massive boulder is upended by Hercules. Wherever the boulder falls after being thrown, it sustains damage. All foes in its path continue to sustain the same damage as the boulder rolls forward. The same adversary takes 50% less damage each hit from subsequent attacks. While casting, Hercules is immune to crowd control.
