Vampiric Shroud. Reasons are because with Zeus you will see that you have Mana problems due through the game. This is not a complete fix, but a help.Shoes of Focus is the First item to complete. Since you really need the Cooldown ReductionMeditation is your Support for the laning phase. buying it in the start allows you to stay longer in the lane, Give you the extra edge when you run out of mana infight, or even Heal you at Max rank.Your first item in 90% of the cases be a Telkhines Ring. Why? With Zeus you are pretty Autoattack Reliant, since your passive amplifies them, and your whole Skill kit relies on them.After this, its up to you. You got yourselfs some kills? RushIf you are not fed, or even behind, Buy [*] Chronos Pendant. It gives you the maximum Cooldown reduction (With your [*] Boots) And enables you to get back into the game through chaining your Abillities. Also it gives good MP and MP5, which is also needed.Then, if everything is going accordingly, BuildIf you feel yourself Unable to kill bigger targets or even tanks, Just Build anIf you are getting Really fed, and expect to get many more kills, BuildBancrofts Talon Gives you Magical Lifesteal and 100 MP, which is insanely good. Its overall one of the main items that make Zeus really good, also kinda blends in with the fact that Zeus has no escape and can be really squishy, so healing yourself makes up a part of it. For me, its mostly the last item I buy, bebcause its especially useful lategame when you heal even more.Detonate Charge is your Most important skill and your main Source of Damage next to your Ult. Is is only to be used when you have 3 Charges on The enemy you are trying to damage. It does Damage Depending on how many Charges you have on the enemy. So make sure you get as many as you can before activating it. If you are certain you wont get any more autattacks off and / or think it will be enough to finish off the kill you can make exceptions, But better sure than sorry.Is Chain Lightning. It is a skillshot that applies 1 Charge bounces between targets 4 times. Meaning if 4 Gods stand close to eachother everyone gets 1 Charge. But, if theres only 2 players, it will still Ark 4 times. Meaning everyone has 2 Charges. If theres Only 1 Target you are hitting, it won't Ark around and just apply 1 stack. It also Targets Minions. So i dont recommend throwing it into Gods when minions are Around. As they can either just take 3 of the 4 arks by themselves, or send only 1 back. Its a gamble, so your Shield is a better conductor for those cases.Called Aegis Assault. Is a skillshot you throw. It Creates a shield on the ground. You can hit the shield with your autoattacks to hit every enemy in the Radius and Apply 1 Charge per hit. IMPORTANT Your shield Counts as a Target! Hitting it with Chain Lightning Lets it bounce between target and Shield. Useful for Applying Charges with only your First 2 skills to get a quick Third off for some poke.Lightning Storm creates a circle of Lightning on the ground. It will Stay for 5 seconds in a radius of 30. It will apply 1 Charge every Second enemys stand in it. It is Great for teamfight controll, but also to position enemys or setup an ambush by blocking ways. I mean who wants to go through there if they dont have to right? It is a very powerful Spell, best in combination with ultimates of the likes of Odin or Ares, But also Cabraken, Hades, or even Xing Tian (careful with that)Overcharge, Creates Charges on your Enemys with Autoattacks. Charges are used for 2 things, to increase your Auto Attack Damage, and to Trigger your Detonate Charges. It Increases your Auto attack Damage by 30% per Charge, 3 Charges Max. (90%) Charges will only stay for a few seconds, so think twice if you have enough time to try to stack it, or just trigger your Third.For you as a Mid laner, your options for Jungle buff are - First you get the DMG buff, Then, if solo doesnt need it you can take mana, if you have problems. Later in the Game you will vary between DMG and Attack speed.
When you should Play Zeus:
If you know your team has alot of teamfight potential, or ways of securing you. Ares or odin work Perfectly for that. Ares Can pull enemys away from you, into the radius Of your Ultimate. Odin can do practically the same. You CAN play zeus if you have none of those, its just more of a risk. Basicly every god that is good for CC can help to Ensure a Zeus as a godlike Midlane. Also you might wanna consider taking him according to your jungler. Zeus works great with loki or thor, Loki, since your Burst is relatively high, the synergy and the element of suprise will work wonders on ganks in early or mid game. Thor is also a great choice because of his zoning and quick arrival.
