4. Glacial Glare

Times Used: 5
Times Cleared: 3
Ranked among Tier 2: 2/4

I like Crystal Beam. Glacial Glare makes it so much better. It's basically two major upgrades in one. It makes it last longer and it adds Chill. Works great with Arctic Blast and Killing Freeze. The only reason it's not higher is that the other boons are just better and more ubiquitous.

3. Winter Harvest

With this, you only have to take off 90% of HP, including bosses like Asterius and Hades. That's awesome. It's such a great killing animation too. Winter Harvest isn't really something you actively fish for like some other legendaries. But the prerequisites (2 of: Arctic Blast, Ravenous Will, Killing Freeze) are usually great boons to get anyways. I don't think it applies to every phase of Hades, just the last phase. But I'll take it.

2. Ravenous Will

One of the bigger reasons to keep Infernal Soul over Stygian Soul. On an Infernal Soul build, this is a pretty amazing boon, especially on the lodging casts. You should usually be at 0/3 bloodstones on an Infernal Soul build. Unfortunately, this does basically run counter to a Greater Recall build. Still, on most runs, this is a very ubiquitous boon to get, especially if you're just dabbling in Demeter rather than going full Demeter.

1. Arctic Blast

The bread-and-butter boon if you want to double down on Demeter. If you can get 10 chill, you get to do 80 damage. How do you get to 10 chill? Very easily, actually. Frozen Touch automatically gets you 10 chill. Demeter's Aid should get you 10 chill multiple times. Glacial Glare + Crystal Beam can get you 10 chill multiple times. Frost Flourish will get you 10 chill reliably on any Bow (special shoutouts to Chiron Bow). Frost Strike will get you 10 chill very reliably, especially on Fists or Rail. You're already doing a pretty substantial percentage-based damage with Frost Strike or Frost Flourish, getting more damage with Arctic Blast is just the cherry on top.

Next up, Bow hammer upgrades, one of which is probably my top enhancement in the entire game.

I feel completely refreshed. Like I just put on fresh underwear on New Year's Day.
