Boon dynamic that works well with Hera aspect
I was playing and got Poseidon on attack and Crush Shot (Aphrodite cast)

If you just for it it will push enemies away from you.

When you load it with the cast it will shotgun after the enemy is pushed away, inflicting weak, usually without lodging the cast.

Dionysus shot + Zeus and/or Demeter duo works great, though it doesn't have any further synergy with Hera aspect above level 1, since it doesn't lodge into enemies.

Used Tidal shot for one play and it ended up quite disappointing compared to Dionysus. Though i suppose I just failed to assemble right boons (need Poseidon + Zeus duo and related Zeus upgrades).

Artemis is also attractive for Fully Loaded boon (+ 3 cast ammo), but it's tier 3 so kind of hard to combine with the rest, and you don't really want her cast (no AoE or interesting synergies, tracking is unnecessary due to delivery by arrow).

If you get Blizzard Shot (Demeter/Poseidon Duo) it'll be awesome

I don't know if it was some other boon effect I had messing with it, but when I used Aphrodite's cast with Hera it would consistently end up with the crystal passing through my target and ending up somewhere unreachable, leaving me no option but to wait for it to time out.

Zeus was hilarious (one shot wipes the screen), though I guess sometimes you end up having to go find it.

Maybe Artemis for pure single target damage? Dionysus is a good AoE one I suppose too.

Though saying that, Ares with the Artemis Duo could be fun, blades that appear on your target and follow them.

Just got this Duo for the first time when attempting a Flood Shot/Aspect of Poseidon run and can confirm it is insanely OP. Despite never getting a single Cast Damage boost except the small one on the weapon, Blizzard Shot would obliterate everything, made even stronger thanks to the knockback and collision damage from Poseidon.
Even against the bosses, Asterius/Theseus and Hades, I utterly destroyed them with the damage output of Blizzard Shot.

I can see a stacked Hera delivery system being just as potent.

I actually stopped using that one because of how ridiculously OP it is :sweatdrop:
