Skip summoning Hades in Infinite Magicraid if you are a free-to-play or early-to-mid-game player working on core PvE progression. You should only summon on his banner if your resource farming is already fully automated and you have saved the duplicate summons or Legendary Dragon Eyes required to reach his higher Exclusive tiers for competitive Arena play.
Without substantial duplicate investment, Hades does not provide the broad account acceleration or multi-mode utility offered by universal support units and dedicated campaign carries.
Exclusive Thresholds and Investment Requirements
Hades exhibits a severe performance gap between his base form and his upgraded tiers. At Exclusive 0, his kit functions purely as a standard single-target damage dealer without cooldown reduction, damage multipliers, or defensive safety nets. Because he provides no turn resets, area-of-effect damage, or damage-over-time effects like HP Burn, an uninvested Hades will struggle to bypass progression hurdles.
To make Hades competitive, you must invest scarce duplicate copies or Legendary Dragon Eyes into his Exclusive milestones:
| Exclusive Tier | Mechanical Shift | Account Role |
|---|---|---|
| Exclusive 0 (E0) | Standard skill scaling and base cooldowns without bonus effects. | Inefficient single-target attacker; outclassed by standard PvE carries. |
| Exclusive 1 (E1) | Higher burst damage scaling and shorter active skill cooldowns. | Viable secondary damage dealer against high-priority targets. |
| Exclusive 2 (E2) | Turn cycling acceleration and built-in survivability mechanics. | Durable PvP attacker capable of surviving enemy burst phases. |
| Exclusive 3 (E3) | Maximum damage amplification and guaranteed execution thresholds. | Dedicated Arena assassin specialized in deleting heavily armored tanks. |
Because Legendary Dragon Eyes are strictly limited, spending them on Hades diverts essential resources away from versatile champions who function across multiple game modes.
PvE Limitations Versus PvP Viability
Hades is designed primarily as a single-target PvP executioner, which drastically limits his effectiveness across standard farming environments.
- Campaign and Dungeons: Multi-wave content such as Campaign stages, Brave Trial, and Stage 26 equipment dungeons favors area-of-effect attackers and heroes with kill-reset mechanics. Deploying a single-target nuker like Hades slows completion times and increases run failure rates.
- Guild Boss: Sustained encounters rely on percentage-based damage debuffs such as Bleed or Poison. Hades relies purely on burst damage, resulting in significantly lower total damage output against boss targets.
- Classic and Guild Arena: In high-tier PvP, Hades counters stall defenses built on revivers, layered shields, and high damage reduction. With sufficient Exclusive investment, he can eliminate an opposing defensive anchor before their support skills cycle.
Even in PvP, Hades cannot operate independently. He lacks innate crowd-control immunity and requires a dedicated team infrastructure. To function before opposing control champions can silence or stun him, he must be paired with Turn Meter boosters and ATK Up buffers. Additionally, defensive supports such as Katherine or Liz are necessary to cleanse incoming debuffs and shield him from retaliatory area attacks.
Decision Checklist: Pull or Save?
Review your current account milestones and resources before spending Miracle Runes on the Hades banner:
- Save your Miracle Runes if:
- You have not completed Hell Campaign or established stable auto-farming for Stage 26 equipment dungeons.
- Your main daily focus is raising damage rewards against the Guild Boss.
- You cannot guarantee at least Exclusive 1 or Exclusive 2 through duplicates or saved Legendary Dragon Eyes.
- You lack premier support units like Katherine to protect and cycle single-target attackers.
- Pull for Hades only if:
- Your core PvE dungeon teams are completely stabilized and require no further carry upgrades.
- You are actively pushing high Classic Arena tiers and lack a single-target finisher to crack tank stall teams.
- You can immediately commit the resources needed to reach Exclusive 2 or Exclusive 3.

I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
The tips are practical and easy to follow.
Can you add more details about resources in a future update?
Nice guide. I am checking the other Infinite Magicraid articles next.
