the last time i played a game of any kind was destiny 2, but hades has consumed my life. it's been super exciting and i totally reccommend playing it!!
my go-to weapons are varatha on the aspect of achilles, the fists of malphon and the adamant rail. which brings us to my fave boons:
triple a (artemis, athena, ares) are god-tier boons to me, but i'll be breaking them down by category, with first spot occupied by my #1 boon
i think this is about it in so far as standard boons, i usually opt for this as much as i can. tbh i suck at using poseidon, aphrodite or dionysus boons because i don't move fast enough to benefit from them but i think they're fun if i'm just fucking around and not trying to beat hades. there are other secondary boons i really love tbh, that work in tandem with what you already have.
secondary boons:
i like tailoring builds around stacking effects that double the most, i especially go crazy with zeus/artemis/demeter builds, mostly because i'm bad at playing a defensive game, which also translates into pierced butterfly being the worst keepsake for me, personally! your cut contents here.
as for duo boons, i haven't unlocked many yet but these are the ones i like that i have unlocked:

secondary boons:
- aphrodite - broken resolve, empty inside, sweet surrender
- ares - black metal, engulfing vortex, dire misfortune
- artemis - support fire, pressure points, hunter instinct
- athena - blinding flash, bronze skin, brilliant riposte, holy shield, sure footing, proud bearing. basically i love stocking up on secondary athena boons cause they boost your defense stats against damage so much
- demeter - arctic blast, frozen touch, snow burst, ravenous will
- dionysus - after party, bad influence, high tolerance, positive outlook, strong drink
- poseidon - boiling point, breaking wave, ocean's bounty
- zeus - clouded judgement, double strike, heaven's vengeance, high voltage, static discharge, storm lightning
