Your biggest job is to ensure greatest chance of success. Reliability is a big key to this. Combo- will entirely remove a very large portion of RNG from fights. If you're relying on Chemobog, then what will you do when turn1 of the fight is triple attack against Chemobog and turn2 will be another triple attack, killing her?

Is that going to happen often? No. But it CAN happen, which means that according to Murphy's Law, it will happen. As such, I don't approve of saying "combo- is not worth." Does that mean that the build you suggest can't work? No. Does that mean that bringing combo- into every single fight is a must? No. All I'm saying is, don't say that combo- isn't "worth" something. Because it absolutely is. It always is worth, as combo- is bloody amazing."Doing fine" is possible even with full Rs, as it is a completely loose term. So that's hardly an argument.
Awesome... Do you want to use Hades in a "offensive"-build?
A "offensive"-build exist for doing more damage to kill the boss as fast as possible and not to play "save" & "slow".
I am open for every builds but I don't see Hades in a offensive build or in a defensive build for most of the contents.

I can consider to use Hades in a "defensive" build. But still I wouldn't relay on combo-rate down and it's not an amazing debuff. It's okay and situational... There we go... Hades = Situational!
Maybe in some situation but not really for AQ4, if you run with element advantage.

Killing Chernobog in 2T? Dude... Pluto has a skill that offers 20% party Light RST for 2T, use Tiamat's barrier (if you can ofc), Osiris for a bit healing and regen from Jeanne... Not gonna happening, unless she has under 8k HP.
Chernobog gets in every T 500HP..
