Family Disputes

Family Disputes Guide

This information was pulled from Hades Wiki[hades.fandom.com].
This is meant to be a quick in-game reference instead of alt-tabbing.
Credit goes to the wikis and fans like you who made it possible!

I have also added my personal opinion and reasoning as of **10/28/2025**.

The spoiler warnings are for gods that only become available on the path leading to Mount Olympus.

Table 1: Family Dispute Effects[/size]

God

Effect

Aphrodite

Spawns 1 to 3 circles with a pillar of light that pulses multiple times, dealing damage.

Apollo

Spawns 1 to 3 circles with a pillar of light that pulses multiple times, dealing damage.

Ares

Spawns 3 circles that drop falling blades in a row, dealing damage when touched.

Demeter

Spawns 1 winter circle that expands and covers large parts of the arena, dealing damage when touched.

Hephaestus

Spawns 1 large circle that drops 3 hammer strikes within it, dealing damage.

Hera

Spawns 3 purple beams that deal damage when touched.

Hestia

Spawns 1 fireball that bounces around the arena, leaving patches of lava that deal damage on contact.

Poseidon

Spawns 1 ball of water that follows Melinoë and explodes when touched or when its timer runs out, dealing damage.

Zeus

Spawns 3 circles which call lightning strikes, dealing damage.

Table 2: Recommended Pick Order
#1 is, in my opinion, the easiest to deal with, while #9 is the hardest.

Rank & God

Opinion & Tips

1 - Apollo

Easiest to avoid since the pulsing effect is predictable and leaves gaps for dodging. The AoE has a small radius and is easily dashed out of—just don't stand still!

2 - Hera

The beams are slow and don’t cover a wide area, making them relatively easy to maneuver around. Good for a build that requires you to be stationary.

3 - Ares

The blades fall in a set pattern, making them avoidable if you keep moving. Simple movement counters it.

4 - Zeus

The strikes are fast but telegraphed, giving you enough time to react. Just keep your dodge trigger finger ready!

5 - Poseidon

It’s a big blue ball and isn’t too fast. Kite it away from enemies, then dash back in to strike while it catches up.

6 - Hephaestus

The hammer drops have a slight delay, but the large radius makes them trickier to avoid. It also packs a solid punch!

7 - Hestia

The bouncing fireball is unpredictable, and the lava zones create lasting hazards. The lava sticks around for a long time, making this annoying in smaller arenas.

8 - Aphrodite

Constant tracking means you must keep moving, interfering with your focus on enemies. Similar to Poseidon’s ball, but the pink heart feels faster and blends into the chaos.

9 - Demeter

[color=red]Most difficult.[/color] It can cover a huge area, severely limiting movement and making dodging much harder. Check the arena size—if it’s large, this becomes easier since the warning appears in advance.

[center]Hope this guide helps! Let me know your thoughts or if you have different rankings![/center]

Animal Familiars

To recruit them as Familiars, Melinoë must give them a Witch's Delight, which is unlocked after completing the Incantation "Faith of Familiar Spirits" (which costs 1 Lotus and 2 Nectar).

To strengthen her bond and unlock the full potential of her Familiars, Melinoë must have at least three Animal Familiars and complete the Incantation "Attending a Faithful Beast" (which costs 1 Tears and 3 Olive) and "Bravery of Familiar Spirits" (which costs 1 Wool and 3 Wheat), and offer each Familiar up to 9 Witch's Delight to fully develop their abilities.

The abilities of Animal Familiars can be further enhanced for a night through Circe's Chants to the Bewitched, doubling their effectiveness by 100%.
