Why it is rated S

S

Paid Dues is a build-capstone Legendary Boon from Hermes. Its offer already proves the prerequisite package is present.

Use it when: Take it when offered unless it conflicts with the build's active attack pattern.
Limit: Its prerequisites make it unreliable to chase, but that availability cost does not reduce its pick value once offered.
If it is absent: Take immediate scaling or defense rather than spending the run chasing its final prerequisite.
