It isn't a matter of what skills I or anyone thinks is right.. its a matter of what skills you think will help you the most. If you have all your skill slots filled, getting the skill set you want will be a lot harder then if you are only out to replace one... maybe two skills. I can speak of experience having an evolved Hades, it over wrote the same exact skill I purchased seven times in a row. So.. my advice is really read what each skill is and what it does.. look at what you have now... and see how those will best play into your battle strategy.. also take into account the cool down timers. Having a field of 45 second cool downs is going to make fighting in a battle or the atoll a lot more agonizing.

i got my aegis and i use the aoe + dmg received increase (dunno name of skill, emergency maintenance now) and awe, which reduces awakening points and deals dmg to one target. both of these skills are for aegis tho.

alternativly the hades skills which reduces heal effect is also nice, but i think its weaker than awe, not sure tho.

the passive which increased mdef after you get crit hit is also nice. havent tested it properly yet tho.

For me haunt very usefull for pve (u can solo wild boss / dimensinal boss(i mean last boss on int adv and expect map) most of them have patk/matk or reflect buff which knight /mage dont have ss like archer)

i still have my skill slots open...i haven't purchased any skill yet
im planning on getting this skills
Active
1.Delphic Endless Engulf
2.Devour Soul
3.Devil's Gaze
4.Awe
5.Orcus Blessing
Passive
1.Dementia(Given)
2.Abyssal Shield
3.Tainted Blood
would this skill set be good?? im a crit type mage and im planning on camping on lvl 60
and i'll mostly use it in BG
i'm not doing atoll boss
Edit: or would it be better if i keep the shadow strike and not replace it with orcus blessing??? that would pretty much save me a lot of balens what do you think?

i have doubts about orcus blessing, especially since probably more players tend to focus on amnesia rune. read carefully that you also get more dmg so a bit kamikaze strike.
devil gaze is nice against mages, if you decide to use it in cw as well keep it. however i have death harvest instead of devils gaze and shadow strike instead of orcus blessing.

if you want to remove shadow strike, start with trying to replace that first. its very balen consuming to replace it i think and very luck dependent.

your set up is good in bg and cw. tho with new cw set up deaths harvest might also be neat to have.

new cw you use sylphs instead troops. you have the little weak sylph thingie you see in icon as troop. once you awaken they awaken as well, and they use skills you put up (similar to sylph arena). so having some aoe skills clear out the sylphs so you can use strong atks on enemy hero

[JkLoser87]

anyone can tell if the "dot" skill for hades is any good? the one that does 7x% patk dmg per turn.

2.Shadow Strike
3.Devour Soul
4.Awe
5.Death's Harvest
Passive
1.Dementia
2.Abyssal Shield

i think it depends.. if you will use it in CW then yeah it is ( seriously ) but use it against knights/archers then i think yeah it's a bit strong..
