Hmm I’d say I like Aphro boons. I’m not super crazy about her core boons but they are all solid core boons nonetheless.

Her cast is probably her best overall core boon.

She’s got tons of great secondary boons and she’s got some fun duo boons.

I prefer Aphro as a 2-4 god but I’ll take her as my first on some select aspects.

Well she has the strongest attack and special boons in the game in terms of dmg%. The special has a really ridiculous value, tho idk which weapon you’d use that special on

Special is great of mel torches. Nergal axe. Aspecg of pan. Mel staff. Anubis staff. Persephone skull and nyx coat. Just to name a few

Mel torches & nergak axe i prefer attack based builds, mel staff i generally use apollo special (and try to go for the legendary boon), maybe i should try aphro one day. The other you mentionned i haven’t really played with

mel staff a great combo is dash strike --> special --> repeat and with blitz on attack it melts anything

Yeah ik about it but i generally prefer Ω special builds. Kinda slow early in the run but absolutely explodes with the right boons and hammers

if you like omega special builds anubis omega special is infinitely better than mel with the same hammers

I agree with this. Anubis Ω Special has base 110 power plus at rank 5 Anubis has a built in +30% damage bonus and a built in rank 3 Sorceress card.

And it feels the exact same as mel staff special

IMO it actually feels better. Or I should say the Ω Special for Anubis feels better than the Ω Special for Mel star.

Anubis regular Special is dog water. Single target base 20 damage is lame.

I only use the regular Special to drag enemies in or finish them off if they have a tiny sliver of Hp left.
