Immortals Fenyx Rising skills & Godly Powers

Immortals Fenyx Rising dripfeeds new skills and Godly Powers to the player throughout their journey, but the player can also take charge of their own build and spend Coins of Charon to unlock and upgrade abilities of their own.

To unlock new abilities and upgrades, you’ll need to progress through the main story until shortly after the prologue, where you’ll find the Hall of the Gods in the lower section of the Valley Of Eternal Spring. At the top of the tower is a range of instruments used to alter and upgrade your character. One of them is called theRiver Styx Cistern, and this is where you can spend Coins of Charon to unlock new abilities.

There are 13 base skills in the skill tree, and each one can be upgraded between 1-3 times. But there are also special abilities called Godly Powers, which have their own separate tree. Three of these Godly Powers are unlocked fairly early on in the main story, but the others must be purchased at the River Styx Cistern. In addition, all 6 Godly Powers can be upgraded just like regular skills.

Best Godly Powers to unlock first

But the other three Godly Powers must be purchased. In a nutshell, Hephaistos’s Hammer deals huge damage and little stun; Ares’s Wrath does the opposite; and Athena’s Dash strikes a balance between the two. Personally I like Hephaistos’s Hammer most, because its sheer damage allows you to end fights pretty quickly - and it can also be used to knock objects flying, which is useful for puzzles!

So with all that in mind,here are the best Godly Powers to unlock first:

Going this route will give you the early benefits of the Hammer, along with Herakles’s Leap to help deal with flying enemies. Then you pick up Ares’s Wrath for huge stunning potential (and the ability to triple-jump, albeit at huge Stamina cost), before moving onto Athena’s Dash as another powerful attack to help mix things up.
