The biggest change to build synergy and viability are the massive buffs to both Aspect of Melinoë and Aspect of Thanatos. If you are an Axe enjoyer, today is your lucky day!

On the other hand if you hadn't given these aspects an honest try, you should definitely do a few runs with them because they feel amazing now.

Nexus Rush has always been among the very worst Rush Boons to the point that literally any other offering from Hera would likely be a better choice. The rework makes it function the same as Blinding Rush, and you likely know that has been the superior Rush Curse Boon.

Poseidon + Aspect of Pan builds are back, but still a bit less powerful than a few months ago.

Life Tax may very well be the new target Boon from Hades. Especially if you run Strength (XXIII) or White Antler in the final region, the 125 healing in the middle of fighting Chronos is unbelievably strong.
