Hades Tips: 10 Crazy Tricks & Builds You Need To Try

Though most players will pick up on this with enough runs, and through the instinctive reaction of dodging attacks by dashing, it's still unknown to some that dashing through any attack or trap makes you invulnerable, entirely immune to all damage.

Timing dashes correctly means you can avoid anything at all, even if you don't have the greatest defense boon in the entire game - Athena's dash deflect. It also means that many pros and speed-runners celebrate the added dashes provided by Hermes (with +3 dashes at epic and +4 dashes at legendary), apart from the amount of speed and mobility it provides.

There is also a very specific situation in which timing dashes is invaluable, and that is when the player uses the Eris gun (in which absorbing your special's blast gives you bonus damage) and decides to use the Hazard Bomb hammer upgrade (which makes the special bigger and more powerful, but now it hurts you).

Dashing through the bomb's blast just as it hits the ground allows the player to get extra damage without getting hurt - which is why it's an option for Eris in the first place.
