Need some info

Hey I am new to this forum, and I play Titan Quest and Titan Quest Immortal Throne for a few weeks.

So my lvl 39 conqueror need to fight Hades, and somehow he died after a few seconds after Hades touch him. What is that?

Also, should I farm more before I fight Hades?

Hi rocklee500, good to see another convert into the world of TitanQuest.

What I did with my melee characters when facing Hades is hit and run - have a good look at his animation when he is about to cast a spell of some sort or when he is "winding up" for a big devastating move of some sort. This would be the best time to run. Then when he is back to his normal swinging weapon self get in amongst it and hit him up a bit.

Have a lot of potions handy also, lets say 50-100 of them (just in case). Remember if you run out of potions and have to portal back to town to buy more Hades will be back to full health when you get back.

Time your potion usage so that when you start taking damage hit a potion. If you take a big hit from an attack hit a potion and run. Few character builds can tank Hades indefinately so just be prepared to spend a little bit of time killing him.

I always believe it is better to have the security that your character is always healing rather than dying...

If you find that this is still just not working for you I would level up a bit more and hunt for a few more good epic items or rares along the way. The better your resistances and life you have the more likely you will survive...

Most of all have fun and good luck.

Hades has a one shot move that is like a red projectile he throws. I have never survived it even with like 7000 life and all resists 80.

He often does this as his opening move so charge then sidestep and dance around until you see a red ball go bye. Then you can charge him for real. If its been several seconds and he hasn't thrown it charge anyway (I do) since you can't wait all day!

I've had him throw it once or twice after the opening move but for the most part the first 3 seconds is the only time to worry about it.

OF COURSE HE DOES HAVE OTHER ATTACKS THAT CAN POTENTIALLY KILL YOU SO BE CAREFUL AND GET SOME VITALITY RESIST.
