might as well try ur luck maybe use a reroll
its not worth it on high heat almost ever
If there is a boon infront of me I am never taking chaos, I rather the moer conservative option.
many folks waited for ea to be done.. im just being a little mindful of that, nbd 🙂
I stopped playing on medium heat because I just got back, will finish the story and go back to it.
idk i always take chaos bc i was a speedrunner and chaos is a room skip'
I am still mad at the gods ||they are just chilling in olympus does that not bother anyone||
they're gods
I was a huge fan of Hades 1. I remember backing it when it was exclusive to the Epic Games Store. does anybody remember that?
anybody know what the issue is or am i just outa luck
I dont like them.
yea but whatcha gonna do bout it
well anyways. pretty crazy to get that old feeling again lol
Not pray to them
thats fair
tbf they were never meant to be that likable
i stayed away from early access this time around. good luck peeps
Watch your language.
no swearing at all? damn cant even say pp
you can sleep with half the family but no cuss
yea idk why they have a no swear filter in here when theres lit spicy scenes in the game 😭
Zag gonna be so jealous to see his sister has more rizz
Also maybe I need to clear the end more, do they actuallyu bring up Zag's friends ever?
Where the hell are Meg and Thanatos and everyone else?
who are the 3 keepsakes
No clue I did 2 runs and had to get off
i think its gonna be hypnos hades fates
I assume one is ||Hynpos when you wake him up, the rest are maybe... Zag somehow?||
i dont see us getting a keepsake for him tbh
Where are they? you can just spoil it for me because I have not seen an inkling of us finding them
havent found them neither im on my 4th underworld rn
im sure fates are in the game tho cuz prophecy
hm maybe you have to dissolve time and get rid of old boy up top first
maybe
I really wish I enjoyed Shiva and Ares respectively
Ares not doing it for me to be honest, I appreciate they listened to us and buffed the mana regen though, but that didnt fix the fundamental issue I have with it.
sucks how they made ares the worst in both games poor dude cant catch a break
well maybe demeter sucks more idk why they didnt buff the attack and special precentage like how everyone was asking for in #h2-feedback
Ares got barely any powers but is the god of war, I got to respect it, he fights for the love of the game
wish we got an aspect of ares
I am fine with the wound and stuff being weak, I think its such a missed oppurtunity that one of Blade Drop or the Hammer drops from Heph arent meta on Supa or like an insane cast build (yes I know that Ares can be part of a cast build but I meant as the main cast boon not the side one).
This is probably me just hallucinating but does the game not feel a lot slower now?
ur hallucinating
ares was goated ion the first game but thats also jus cus merciful end lowk
It felt faster to me if you mean optimization
hi
I know they will never do this but Supergiant realizes I hate how slow the walking at the end areas are right?
Figures
do you guys are lagging?
sword ring hostile environment on charon is goated
stabbing rush with coffin nail is great too tbh, just compared to the other gods he sucks
how can i keep track of how many gift i gave to someone
up on the d-pad on controller i think c on mouse and keyboard
I was doing chaos below and got the keepsake ||time piece from chronos? is this for just chaos below or did i just get spoiled by the random keepsake lol||
folks, can we romance more than one character? i had ||eris|| ask me out just now and i wanna see how her path goes, but my priority is ||moros|| so i don't wanna ruin things with him if we can only romance one character.
also why did they do that to lucid gain 😭
is it the green stamp ?
I think it just should be better is all, I think its really depressing how much better Hestia, Poseidon are than him on Supay, I think its depressing that his attack and feature boons are the worst, I think its even more depressing that the sword drops are effectively never the maximum DPS option. And then the plasma gimmick takes too long to get online for what is mid.
you can do all of them dw
You need to unlock it as in incantation first
the hearts underneath the name, need incantation first tho
there we go, cerberus down
whew! cause in hades 1 i only did one path, so i wasn't sure how it worked.
Its an unfair criticism but you can get 1 boon on Anubis and you are online
It takes 2-3 for Plasma
just so I can run fast PLEASE DO SOMETHING SUPERGIANT
so its the same as before but there is no hearts for me yet
it surprised me for her to be the first since i've been solidly investing on ||moros|| stocks say day 1.
thats must be it thanks
i strongly doubt i'll be able to beat chronos this run but the build is randomly crazy so it might happen
I am going to keep it a stack, does Echo ever get better? I find her so annoying
tbh he just has way too much going on, wounds, falling blades, plasma,
wait i can equip mulitple keepsakes?
her whole thing is that she echoes what else do you want from her]
Thats actually probably the bigger issue is how little synergy all that stuff has and its not like going PURE Ares makes sense.

you can change it each region once you get that one incantation
Be interesting, people get mad I find her annoying
it wasnt my intention but ive got apollo legendary on this build with very high magic and mirrored thrasher cardio gain
that ik but why tf do i have two equipped rn then????
which 2?
bell and heart
I assume you got the boon that allows you to carry over a keep sake to the next region.
||No spoilers but I have played early access for people that have which path should I start with first now that 1.0 is here?||
Could be echos boon
bell carries over the entire run
bell carries over
.....didnt know that
well thats the point of bell, risk reward
bell also sucks dont use that thing please
im just doing a fun run to get back into it, decided to use it floor 3 and i realized its on i was so confused
Other boons carry over in some unique ways, like Selene and chaos both keep their benefits even when unequipped
Chaos boons stops rotating tho, you permanently will have the boon you unequipped it on
i wish i had the patience to read patch notes without falling asleep
I saw nothing interesting in them but I am not a huge build person. I tried Hera Supay because it's an aura now instead of contact. Don't think it's real. Undescribed Posedion consistency changes.
Supay Nerf
Thanatos buff
All I remember
any good coat guys? I don't know which one to pick
hera supay is gonna suck bc for hera dash to consistently do dmg u gotta wait for the hitch to expire but heras dash is actually insane now
Patch notes wasn't even that big.
The update is pretty beefy, but not many changes from prior revisions
nyx/mel with poseidon attack and exhaust riser hammer, alternatively do nyx with hitch rockets
posedion consistency changes is removal of the stupid internal cooldown probbly
If you don't get Hestia or Poseidon dash are you ever doing that much damage? Zeus takes some stacking
Oh wow, I thought poseidon was terrible, what are you thought on that?
Thanks for the build
I liked using Mel's cloak for rather Hestia or posidon attack spam
i always do stabbing rush it always works fine for me i highly reccomend you try it tbh
I had a significantly easier time doing an omega attack coat build wit ||Shiva|| aspect
Goodness it's so much better than the rest for omega attack
poseidon is best on fast attacking weapons/weapons that attack multiple times per input like exhaust riser allowing coat dash to hit 3 times
All the gods in H2 are bis for something, nothing like H1.
Tried it before, night and day difference between Stabbing Rush to Zeus/Hestia/Poseidon they are so much better it hurts.
did you get both the duos
I was deeply offended how much damaged post nerf Hestia rush did on Supay, the gap shouldnt be that far.
Apollo? Yeah I feel like Stab Rush on Supay SHOULD be elite but its more showy than good. Which is funny because I actually hate playing Poseidon rush its not fun to me. I hate rushing into things.
i normally rest runs til heroic stabbing rush (120 dmg per blade) get apollo duo (double blades so effectively double dmg) and coffin nail (insta dmg, more dmg forgot how much)
Poseidon has some insane DPS increase on weapons which do... Very little damage.
Same way how Aphrodite does insane DPS on heavy hitting weapons
dunno what ur doing wrong tbh
I think its solidly the 4th best Rush on Supay at most ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The other ones dont require you to get double duo boons or anyhing like that to be good.
Well I see
Thanks a lot guys for the help, will try that right away... surface is so hard lol
zeus? holy stabbing rush is easily better than zeus on supay and on everything zeus sprint is not good
Am I crazy for using supay and not focusing too much on rush boons 🫠🫠
wel ares is kinda of funny looking!
Yes... are you going special focus instead?
I might have to use God mode
Yeah, I like doing Zeus, Hestia or pommed out heph
The only time I have felt like Rush was weaker than Special was when I literally got some extremely lucky RNG and sacrificed Zeus boons for Hera Special or something to that effect.
i forgot how good pan knives are omg
the game isnt meant to be beaten on ur first run, its a roguelike so you get stronger the more you lose assuming ur new
if ur like on 20-30 runs and making close to no progress yea turn it on 😭
have fun with 5 second omega charge speed twin thats all you
I did accidentally get level 24 Zeus rush boon on it last time
anyone else dealing with weird screen slicing or something when you run around and change direction?? using keyboard
time to go to bed. i played 6 hours of hades 2, and cloverpit comes out tomorrow as well...
gonna be very busy
ill admit it takes a while yea and i havent used it in like super high difficulty but for a goofy run its cool
Oh boy who buffed Typhon again
No I am a Hades 1 veteran bro. I just suck lmao. I don’t have a shield to help me
aight lmfao
Roguelite* to be pedantic. Roguelikes don't have you "get stronger" but "get better(skills)"
I mean I’m making progress just slow . 😫 I finally beat Hecate at least
what do you use gemstones for? forgot
Selling.
Played 7h30 straight, tome to go to bed. The update is awesome thanks SGG for bringing such gems, it feels good to play like I'm a teenager again
And lmao the build where I did 6k8 damages in one shot
Sell with the broker for decor
if ur coming from h1 its gonna take a little while to get used to the super different movement
Wait when do we use darkness? I haven’t seen that yet? Spoiler tag pls
How many runs u on?
H1 where movement was king pepehands
wasnt ||typhon|| nerfed (made easier)
feels like it? think it happened last patch though
||its only in chaos rooms and used for certain incatations and something important im forgetting||
🫠the one I’m paused on is 11
Man... can they fix ||Rivals Scylla|| I will never enjoy that fight
Not in the same way as Hades 1, similar mechanics are in the game though in the green stuff
ur at normal pace dw lmfao
ooooo i know how to get dissolution of time
Aw crap. Ok thanks guys
all the rivals bosses are hell tbh and not a fun type of hell some people really love them though
I just reached the moment for it
No mirror either? 😫😫 yoooo they’re ruining me
yeah the progression can feel quite slow at the start, definitely felt that way with Hades 1 as well.
mirror in this game is arcana cards its like entirely different but similar idea
I actually find all rivals fun except that one, the final rivals are fun in like a masochist way. Scylla is just annoying
Prometheus animated sprite with fire eyes is so hot
Like ###DAMN
He was, then it looks like they expanded his moveset again
Some of them are better than others, || Cerberus|| sucks imo
where do you find shadows?
wait you enjoy rivaled prom/poly? 😭
He is just too THICK
uh, since i always go knuckle bones like a coward? yes
Poly gets easy eventually tbh
i quite like ||cerberus|| tbh, ||prometheus|| is probably the least fun for me
He feels like a dps check, and if your not a nuke you get hit boxed to death...
Prom initially might be the hardest curve of all of the regular ones is the issue.
rivaled cerb is just annoying cuz lava to me
May want to use more spoilers today just cuz a lot of new players gonna be roaming the chat, right?
i have a bad habbit of stepping anywhere i can step
It doesnt help that I have some of the worst memory ever so doing the memory game with Hercules putting cheeks in my face is hard.
Prometheus rivals is the worst
good shout. definitely do this
Yes/No I feel like you are trolling if day one you ran to discuss a game you barely got 5 hours in
is there like a setting in discord to auto unspoiler everything
its so hard to remember whats even a spoiler anymore besides the obivous stuff
people often ask questions about the game if theyre stuck / want to figure something out, or just to complain
complain about art? smh
Need to complain about Heph being just a supporting god
buff my boy
All the other rivals fight I have learnt and gotten pretty good at (though I think hecate is a drool for a first boss fight). || Cerberus || just uniquely feels like a dps check vs a boss
yo i just got a ||cutscene for scylla’s new song|| that’s so funny lmao
have you never done a blast build its quite litterally the most entertaining thing ive ever done
heph is really good
Heph is good as a splash, how often are you going main Heph or Cast Heph and feelign incredibly good about it?
the most boring part for me with hecate is how much downtime there is where youre just unable to do damage
Did you know || redacted|| is a npc room ally now 🫨🫨
75 armor? delicious
damage to armor increase? crucial at times
a lot of the other stuff is like fun but not peak, I want cast Heph and Ares to be the best casts so much because they are visually the most fun
#h2-victory-boasting message get something like this
its so fun each blast does like 2k dmg and hits twice cuz of hestia duo
whenever i want to run heph i run heph. heph has one of if not the highest ceiling of all gods
counter point I HATE skulls.
Hate em, all of em
do not like em
might be my least favorite weapon inbetween both games
Yeah 2 immortal phases with ads, shadow clones, teleportation, polymorph ball. She's such a scummy staller lol
use a diff weapon then i just used persephone cuz i cba to pick pomm doors
||morrigan|| might be good with it?
On what?
the new ||fields entrance|| looks so nice
i love the skulls, my least favourite weapon is the umbral flames
Learn to press right click to pick up the skulls, made me enjoy em a lot more
heph works on any weapon you want
.. People say that but I never achieved it, I seen it work though feels slightly gimmicky
fr they shoulda put that stuff in more spots across the fields
heph is easiest to get online on persephone but if youre willing to put in some time every weapon has succress with him
I hate collecting them
I hate how short the valykrie range one is
I hate the Seeding mechanic and jumping around int he head
Its goofy to me
Black coat enjoyer for life,.
Best weapon is Thanatos scythe. But you do you lol
or or or
you could use medea
medea heph is a valid strat that has seen great success
I love my spin to win gameplay, and no one's gonna stop me
have you tried zeus attack with than its so fun im trying it rn
I've tried everything with than, it's always fun
my favorite bnuild gotta be zeus attack mel staff
Black Coat is peak and I will hear nothing else even if I think only 2 of the aspects are fun/good.
I think that's genuinely why it's my favorite weapon, a lot of the other aspects just don't work with some gods
Hey how do i get shadow?
I love the moon
Cauldron
craft
my fav aspect is prob moros or morrigan
Selenes coat is super fun too yeah, I love starting with selenes keep sake and just being op right from the get go
i just got morg looks fun af
Brain off Anubis, Supay
Gamepaly
Selene
but the staff is always great all around
and all forms of the axe are great
try apollo attack final slice they buffed the size on base apollo attack with blades for some reason but im not complaining
coul prob hit a whole erebus room with one final slice now
hate the skulls and the Daggers are... hm they are good but I miss peak where you could one tap because you hoarded gold
You got to get a shout-out to circes staff tho.
apollo the goat for wide attacks fr
They should have gotten rid of it but I miss it so bad
staff is so annoying to use if im not just spamming a cast on the floor istg
i feel so week doing anything other than a circe build or pressing square once with anubis
Dont think every staff build requires you to spam cast but Cast is also broken so why not
I love all 4 staffs 🥲🥲
mel staff mad strong tho
Its probably too strong now? maybe? like they buffed it to make Alpha players use it more but new players dont have that frame of reference.
The special went through a lot of tweaks, but I am a big fan of the rail gun we go lol
mel staff special spam is pretty good yea but you need like really specific hammers fori t
idk how people play momos unironically its so boring and awful imo
Can they fix how Gale works around armor? I cant be teh only person who finds that annoying
if i wanna get the secret staff should i go up or down be so fr with me
lmao im wrecking this run with lightning lance and i dont know why
yo is anyone else getting a glitch where their mouse cursor doesnt show up ingame
Go up and speak to || circe ||
i think you get anubis from circe so up
i needed to kill that good person on floor 2 thakn you
woah ||I just got baited with the chronos healthbar showing up in the erebus room lmao, thought I was gonna get beat up lol||
good person? you mean narcissus?
no i mean the boss on floor up, i called her smthn else and i got censored by the server 🙁
oh ||scylla||
What's peoples favorite underrated keepsakes btw?
Or Eris?
oh wow the locked doors in oceanus look so good now
eris
i didnt want to say the name and idk how to do the hiding thing im slow
I'm loving crystal figurine
idk if embryo is underatred but its my fav
omg h2 already ... next is h3 where zagreus and melinoe and persephone have a tea party peacefully and theyre all happy and 🌟
crystal figurine, chaos keepsake, smth else im forgettin
Probably narcissus keep sake?
lion fang
She's not a spoiler, she was there from the start of EA
narc keepsake is not underated bro 😭
takes a while, you have to really do a lot of runs I think to get the hiddens
Neither is chaos keep sake 😭😭
oh ik i just dont want to drop that on ppl u know lots of new players coming in
ok </3
🤣🤣
then figurine and lion fang
Has anyone else had an issue where some of the familiars won't take a treat to bond with you no matter how many times you run into them with treats?
narc is way more underated than chaos ong tho
Why does discord make emojis so big ...
what?
everyone knows that thing is crazy good
k lets see if i still have typhon skills
If new players don't want spoilers, they have #h2-for-new-players :D
Here you only have to hide V1 spoilers
Bro? My zodiac sands and monster eyes disappeared?
i had like 12 of each, they went back to 0 after 1.0
I guess I wasnt paying attention
welp thats a good thing to know lmao
the patch notes announced it a while back sorry buddy you got to start fresh
I think sometimes you have to run into them like twice
I've met Hecuba and the ferret like 100 times with the item you feed them to bond but I never get the option and I can't figure out why
pffffft
I've run into both like 20 times now
?
Huh, I wonder if theirs an incantation you might be missing
https://medal.tv/games/hades-ii/clips/lb3K2wDFnwiEVLxZ2?invite=cr-MSxsTnksMjA3MDEzMjA4 95% attack speed than axe how is this allowed
I've looked it up and compared notes with my wife and they should be unlocking
I think you have to hit a check point to get Hecauba and Gale, like there is a conversation you have to have or something. and you do mean the treats right?
And it's not a common bug since I can't find much on it
I wonder if speedrunners already got the ending. They probably did
r u 100% sure youve got the treats?
I doubt its a bug, there is something you havent done that I cant remember
Yup
had that sime issue then realised a week later i just didnt even make more treats
i mean, lol
also what they were exchanged for?
a new item or just prestige
gems
And there are no more incantations. I'd done them all and beaten both runs dozens of times before 1.0

because there is new content/reactions from the bosses so they want you to rebeat them
try #h2-tech-support and see if someone smart answers maybe?
like 5 times each too strap in
i would have done that anyways
ok typhon first try i do still ahve my skills
anyways, how many achievs yall got after 1.0
i got 25 just by booting up the game, after 100 hours
the new content is gonna be huuuuuge
took more damage from eris and spawn than typhon holy
Hello, i wanted to know if there are any mac users who are playing hades 2? If so, are you getting 60fps?
33*
30, got one by killing a witch as a sheep in hecate fight on accident
poseidon or apollo with base staff?
you want aphro specials + island getaway duo
I got 30/50
didnt get unless i wait till next floor for her keep
Debating if I should pick hard target or nimble limbs
oh huh, Sheeps clothing, thats a cute achievement
also achievs like rising back a syren, reaching chronos with a silk dress, beating both paths were not retroactive, ugh
is it intentional for you not to be able to Omega cast during the Omega special with the Hidden Aspect of Revall? This feels terrible to use
On the patch he was released he was insane. The entire screen filled with projectiles
thats uh difficulty right? which one is the increased speed i forget the name never pick that
they closed the feedback channel or i'd ask there
yeah i was there for that thats where a chunk opf my pracrtice comes form
Hard target is -50% foes ranged attack speed, nimble limbs is faster attack, special and cast
again I still feel like the chance for artemis to show up needs to be higher, I've been playing since the update dropped and havent seen her once
What does the finger up means on gates?
forget-me-not, one of the items you marked is on that path
Oh, I thought we were talking about the Vows, Hard target is useless to me, imo but maybe the speed runners like it.Hades 2 doesnt have THAT many projectiles
thank you, i never had to see it since i always have the resources since beta lol
I’m glad they nerfed him for the final release hehe
hard target sounds like bait. That's how it is for other games anyway
hard target is good
I'm ngl, im still upset Athena, arti and Dio got stolen from us
i like taking hard target cuz it makes me feel like quicksilver from that xman movie
generally anything that can be done in any run will need to be done again, and things that can only be done once per file is retroactive
do you get 3 or 4 gods at a time i can't remember
ye=ah buit we got apollo so its worth
I'm hoping modders come in and make full boon gods for the 3 downgraded Olympians
I miss their Godcalls so much
I'm a bit annoyed all my rewards for killing typhon and cronus are just gone like a fart in the wind, pretty sure I got nothing in return for them too
I dont care about that, I just want to hear new dialogue. I've seen athena multiple times, dio once, but artemis hasnt shown up A SINGLE TIME
they turned into gems as i got told
Hexs are great once you learn how to upgrade effienciently
you got decorations thats very useful and helps you win runs wym
And those do..... What
someone did before for artemis
sell em for prestige, cosmetics
Oh yes! Honestly if those godcalls were in the game they’d be OP
But I still love them
You got gems, they told you to use the stuff (not being mean) and they had to do it so that people wouldnt auto do the spell at the start of 1.0 ruining the experience
She's most common in erabus and Oceanus, go down
I already had used them for all incantations
Finally, every incantation complete!
Except the big one
Then you are fine, they just want you to do 5 runs each of top side and bottom side
which were the requirements for auto gathering?
greatest gift of Gaia or sum
I know, but its ridiculous. I've been alternating surface and underworld runs and athena has been in my surface runs like 70% of the time. no artemis is actually ridiculous
So the polyphemeus prophecy doesn't count if you have the bosses fear vow..... Great
have obtained every tool resource before and then have done the tool actions all like 55 or 111 times and familiars maxed
just deleted my early access saves, let's go
I agree we are being denied peak
So the requirements for the boons list incantation have changed again, you now only need to gift every Boon-giver up to Hera
.... thats so depressing
oh theres so many it took me like a week
harvest every material at least once (including ALL fish)
max out all familiars
every tool
every aspect
gathered at least 51 shades
gatheres 101 shovel points
gathered 101 outcroppings
have caught at least 51 fish
owned all 10 seeds
Okay, now officially completed them all lol
I am not doing that big bro
i lwky did it cuz i didnt have anything else to do
its actually noit that outlandish when you thjink of the perspective from a new save file up to the end of the game
never invested into companions, just started doing so bcs of the achievement
I remember when you could only harvest with the specific tool equipped
early early access had so many anti qol features
It was to encourage using the companions
The achievement popping in odd because I already beats cronus ass wearing arachnes dress before and yet I didn't get that one
i normally always play with sound off but everytime i finish a underworld run and ||get to see zag i turn it back up js to hear his voice||
all achievments that can be repeated on a maxxed file need to be done and wont be unlocked retroactively i believe
Are the animated sprite files available in wiki or something ?
Anyone know what the hades 2 steam badge looks like?
||@near quartz zag does talk about the other people asking where they went ||
i think u were the one asking bout it not sure
how do I make || entropy || ??
you have to beat the true ending to unlock rivals 4 now
woah
That's the cronus and typhon one right
That was a pain in the ass to beat
well, max rivals yeah
im kinda disapointed to see lack of balance changes tbh
oh thats good ||hopefully they are alive or something||
thought there would be more of them
i doubt it 😭
Anyone have a guess what the three new keepsakes are? Only found one so far and I need a direction to look.
I mean the game to be fair is very balanced, Alpha degens just know too much about the game and I think people predicted months ago that 1.0 wouldnt see massive balance changes to appease Alpha players.
Hi, quick question, is there any new use for the fish or can I just sell them?
hades hypnos and fates if i had to guess but i dont think anyone here has given confirmation. whats the one you found?
like its more of a user problem if you main line broken aspects and boon comboes every single run and new players dont even have the nightmare to make aspects good
in patch notes theres smth bout an aquarium idk how it works though
except Anubis which is good from unlock because why not
The pet stuff was miserable
Roger thank you, guess I'll just keep one of each
nah some stuff is straight terrible and other stuff is crazy op
||Hades, fates are the epilogue so I haven't seen them||
sure like when you understand the game and get to high fear but the patch is for new people not us
||howd you get hypnos to wake? ||
new people havent even gotten to the hidden aspects yet, unless they are complete degenerates
||Hades again lol, he gave me soot||
I am a hater but, I think its going to be sad when they realize like ... 2 of those hidden aspects kinda arent that good/fun
||howd you get him to do that he doesnt have any neat dialogue for me </3||
Skull might be good but again, I hate skull will never get it props
Postgame
? only bad one i feel is hel
||like true ending?||
Yeah
I think base coat and selene are just so much better than Nyx and Shiva. and Shiva doesnt change the play style enough to warrant doing it for fun.
shiva is lit like insanely good lmfao get artemis rng and apollo attack/lego and kill everything ever
i dont really like the coat personally so i dont use it often but when i do it feels really strong
Why does the game give me Poseidon boon 3 times in an area when I already have 3 gods💔
It is good, I do not find it distinct enough to care that its good when I find Selene better/more fun
made it to chronos for the first time on new profile, and i have no idea how this is gonna go
probably fine since you know him like the back of your hand, except you are infintely weaker
i mean yeah but im pretty weak and i have strife debuff
HAVE ANOTHER!
HAHA YES
poseidon voice actor is my fav god voice actor
although i suppose strife debuff just means im really playing with a little fear since ive got 70% damage against me which is pretty much pain 3
So how’s the story fellas post early access? Can’t play for another 7 hrs, sack work 
i dont know how they let power surge into 1.0 does anyone actually use that boon and it do anything
Great
I know it will never happen but if they really wanted to do something for Alpha players they would give us the Sword back
apparently ||true ending hades||
took my first hit of the fight halfway into phase 1
do yall recommend auto-fire? Or not really
lightning lance with anvil ring is doing work
I mean, I’m just playing endgame now, I have 100%’d everything pre 1.0
They gotta change smth cause if I’ve denied poseidon twice this area and I’ve never taken a Poseidon boon this run and I have no rolls and have 3 other gods all taking up primary boon slots WHY would it give Poseidon😭 😭 😭
so I’m trying to find the things I need now
Nope
Please spoiler tag content from v1.0 in this channel.
sorry king
Ima be honest that isnt endgame
amir ur da goat <3
7 health and a dd for phase 2
well, you couldn’t go beyond that before today
and considering I’m crossing the 400 hour mark in this game right about now, I’m considering it endgame lol
Trust me ik lol, I'm just meaning endgame is a bit different
oh god I wanna try Hades II already, but I'm on the middle of the Hades and Persephone lore
I’m sure it is, H1’s endgame was more like ennnnnndgaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa(gasp)aaaaaaaaaaaaame
Probably have to flee 3 or 4 times more
are the underworld and overworld storylines completely different or am i gonna eventually have to stop doing underworld to progress in overworld
I’m sure this is no different
That would be an interesting choice but convoluted so I assume no
Also, I think it would be hard to write a story where Melinoe ever sides with ||Olympus or against her family in some capacity||
oh i came so closeeeee
They are interconnected, a literal war on two fronts
ok bet
I do wonder what ||Hercules deal is, I mean they explain it but whats the goal||
im doin 1 run up and 1 run down
i had him down to like 1/20th of his health lol, those 85 damage spinny scythes are brutal though
||the gods litterally made him kill his wife and kids.||
Who are the new keepsakes for? I assume 2 are hades and hypnoes, but the 3rd i have no idea.
Oh I know but like ... he cant stop her
likely fates, nobody knows though
Also just made my fastest time ever, 18 minutes with the aspect of Hel
18 minutes is as ever i got in H1 too
I wonder what they look like... they bad nah I am joking
I always figured it was just ||a long awaited eff you to the gods that have made his life a thankless living hell for years on end||
yea but he can side with chronos and try to make chronos win
Welp if anyone finds out the other keepsakes @ me please
and be punished for eternity...
meh hes already being punished for eternity zeus gave him eternal life so he can never go be with his murdered family 😭
sure that wasnt the intention but to him its prob all the same
you know who I think should be in this game? They need to have Poly go missing sometimes and bring back Sisphyus
sisyphus boss fight??
I would argue it can get 100% worse than effectively being the gods slaves, like I rather not be Sisyhpus or go through what Prom did. Eternal damnation is still a thing in this lore.
||thast true but in heracles' mind he thinks chronos has a real shot of winning, im sure chronos gave him some kind of deal where if he helps he wont get punished for all eternity like his father||
I'd love more lore on Heracles tbh
are godsent selene blessings once per room?
oh mb no cussing I forgot,
||I hope the ending is melione humbling these morally bankrupt gods||
Usher in a new era maybe, cant stand their smug faces
does anyone know guide to unlock all the new incantation added in this update
so huh, I still can't get the|| familiar's skin because CIRCE won't give me the incantation||, should I do something in particular or just keep going
So far, just play the game lol
need a certain friendship lvl
is there a questline or something
You are playing the game wrong if you dont max Circe, thats the goat fr
not sure
Nah, just give her more nectar
I have her maxxed out...
i maxed all npcs except heracles pre 1.0
she dont like you buddy idk what to say ¯_(ツ)_/¯
just unlucky I guess
just started playing hades
I did his fast, he is really interesting
look at my name, of course she hates me
If you are maxed out it might take a few runs, Heph refused to let me give him ambrosia for a long while lol
this game is so fun
idk the fearful night thing wont work for me no matter what lol i did a 40 fear run and it still didnt do sht
ah, weird
Is there release date for PS5 or should I just bite the bullet and get it on switch 
bite the bullet
It’s hades 2 time!!! Thanks
i dont think hades 2 is even gonna come on console is it?
hm.. maybe not
I mean hades one is on ps5 so I imagined yes
I could see them getting a deal not to though or heavily delay it
idk i havent seen any news bout it
but Switch 2 already sold crazy so maybe not kinda wouldnt be necessary
ide just buy it on switch before all the hype around it gets a bit lower
Took a year the first time, wouldn't be surprised
welp I havent had a console in a decade, but rip to my sony brothers
nah though they need to open feedback so I can complain about Ares, idk why but that bothers me so much. I really thought my beautiful king was going to get a buff.
sometimes i feel like im the only h2 player still in highschool bro wym you havent had a console in a DECADE
26
yeah... its been a decade I think
The Heart Arrow in the Codex doesnt explicitaly mean romance to go past it, right?
last console I opened was the PS3, didnt have the money for a PS4, got out of the Nintendo pipe line early.
Yes it does
you dont have to do the deed with them to finish it though, you can just not do it
... I dont know what happens if you reject them though
idk rejecting them feels weird cuz mel is so obviously leading them on 😭
imagine rejecting icarus gng thatd be so akward
thats interesting, has any Hades fan ever been not horny enough to test what rejecting them does? because I have to assume its kinda mean
I might test it, id feel bad after romancing Eris to go romance her sister and brother(? cant remember what moros is to her)
maybe check the wiki im sure someone tried it just to see
I wonder how New Player experience Nemesis is, she has been changed so much but I remember in ALpha finding her so damn annoying
I hope she feels nicer?
its greek mythology, everyone sleeps with everyone
hera and zeus are lit brother and sister
Well not in this but yeah its still insanely close proximity
just got to credits and... What a beautiful, beautiful ending.
Spoilers
||Videogames, especially ones like this always have a hard time with story telling. As a society we understand violence is not the answer in so many cases, but damm is it fun to fight in hades. and yet you found a way to make kindness the MVP of this story. Thank you.||
I'm just waiting for someone to update the wiki for the new keepsakes lol
i really dont thinbk anyone has even gotten them i havent heard a peep bout them yet
Is h2 feedback closed? I was going to suggest an option to toggle the screen you get in between entering regions. I actually preferred how there wasn’t one near launch of early access and after seeing it so many times in hades 1, I kinda got tired of it
whats it do
I mean the game came out for me... 12 pm which was 9 hours ago, some degen has done it 100%
its like ... on average what? maybe 20 minutes on a good run if you are slow/not great
do that 10 times
Damn yeah I missed the feedback channel closing by a long shot lmao
underworld runs take me 12 minutes at most
did they change the bosses ost?
i just got my first clear, ||what a beautiful area the dream space or whatever it’s called is||
||when you don't start with rerolls and don't use a god keepsake, you gain a hades blessing and every boon starts with a level. Goes away when you put on a god keepsake or if you get rerolls||
honestly i wonder how Hypnos feels to talk to, that sounds weird but uh... ||Having him sleeping there all game is SO weird||
what a terrible keepsake
I must be illiterate
Probably wouldn't be terrible for max vow that makes it so you can't use arcana tbh
guys we found the keepsake that makes bell look goated!
Now hold on, bell is fun occasionally lol
concave stone then]
it seems very in theme with ||judgement|| so it kinda makes sense?
Soi wait wait wait
it means no Arcana? and no God keep sakes at all or can you use like non Olympins?
that sounds wayyyy too situational
Ok yeah I agree
no rerolls no god keepsakes
but you cant use both judgement and this, no? because you eventually would get rereolls
guys helppp in #h2-for-new-players
Oh yeah definitely, it's really iffy
im like 95% sure fates keepskae is just gonna give you more rolls lmfao
that... WHAT IS THE POINT OF THAT
is it permanent? like I only do first region/
oh yeah, haven’t thought about that, lol. kinda like a bridge until those?
Huh. TiL ||Eris|| can show up to curse you in Tartarus of all places
oh wait... that kinda makes sense
apparently it gets removed if you get rerolls/a god keepsake
You have to abide to it the entire run if you want the buff lol
Thats actually wait, you broke the code thats kinda fire
so its the bridge between Judgement being literally terrible at the first region
No no Six is right, its supposed to fix Judgement being bad at the first region like not bad but like impossibly bad at high fear
1 lvl increase is not allat though
huh... I hate it what a wild design choice
no god keepsake is fine its the fact ur not allowed ANY rng control
That 1 level could change your entire run, don't doubt it
So you take the thing thats only good in the first region to make Judgement not terrible in the first reason but Judgement itself ISNT broken by the last region so you are taking both like as an additional challenge?
the tought choice of picking a keepsake i like or leveling up a keepsake...
how do you decorate your pet? through dora?
I mean the name of the effect is literally ||Fates will||
am I missing something did you upgrade it fully whats it do at level 3?
Haven't upgraded it yet, probably goes 1-2-3 tho
nah nah nah... scrap that scrap it SCRAP IT
ok thast not awful then
Please spoiler tag v1.0 content.
this has to improve please
can someone tell me why all my cotton turns into poppy...
like hopefully it has better synergy
Oh yeah, Persephone skull with it might be nice
would it even be the best first region keep sake if you were going Judgement?
+9 lvls 😭
2 second cd for heph lol
not sure where to ask about this, but there is a hammer that restores life on kills with attack. However I'm not restoring anything while slaying foes with my attacks. I suspect it has to do with the "waves strike" boon, which deals 25 "splash damage". So I'm guessing its added after the attack and therefore I don't get the kill on the monster with my attack but with the bonus "splash damage"? I'm confused xD. Seemingly "Wave strike" completely bricks "Vampiric cataclysm" and makes it unusable.
of course it would be Skull synergy, feel myself passing away
heph poms cap at 4 on heroic attacks
Yeah but you need those 5 extra poms
Do you have some form of hp gain denial on from vows or something?
vampiric cataclysm is omega attacks iirc, hold down ur attack button
when did they nerf heph to 4 wth
well 4 poms is 2 seconds
it just doesnt go below that bc that would be uterly insane
0.333 seconds
yea only way is to get seismic servo
i thought you meant at 4 seconds
Has anyone seen what the interaction between ||Hecuba with the red costume and Cerberus is||?
oh you're right!
seismic servo makes it go to 1.smth seconds thou
.... is Hades 2 taking forever to update for some people. It's been over an hour and it's only at 23 percent
I assume thre is atleast a throw away line or something there
No, I just didnt read xD
Growl, bark, woof /j
took me around 2 minutes ur system is prob bad
there has to be reactions to the ||costumes right that would only make sense||
Nop
what is cerb going to say hes cerb
also, why dont the mods just make an alpha role or something that auto spoils everything, this is kinda hard
At this rate I'm not going to be able to play the release tonight before I have to go to bed for work tomorrow 😔
thats not smth you can do on discord
||Because||
damn you stole my flow bar for bar
.... yeah probably. I'm on a laptop thats a few years old....
atleast let Hades acknowledge the costume
leave it overnight maybe assuming its not going to ruin your electrical bill my dad goes crazy bout that typa stuff
I did leave it running when I made dinner and cleaned the kitchen. But my laptop just went into sleep mode and it barely progressed.
WAIT I FOUND THE KEEPSAKES ON SOME WEBSITE
Anyone else having crazy fps drops?
They're correct too, why isn't it on the wiki lol
spill the tea
I was waiting all day at work to play it too 😔 I KNOW I can reach the new content easily... I can beat the bosses easily..... pls laptop just finish updating....
I don't get the compelling ghosts/shades thing. Whenever i initiate the process i get shown both buttons RB and LB, press them and the whole thing fails.
||Zag and grandpa keepsakes||
is splash icd still there
wtf????
ALL ARE FATES WHIM LMAO
patch notes say it’s gone
New keepsake ||Calling Card: While at Fates' Whim, you can rarify Olympian blessings up to 2/4/6 times this time.||
I just updated and it feels like I have 10 fps
what do they do tho that’s so u expected why is there no sleep guy
How do I spoiler text?
New keepsake ||Time Piece: While at Fates' Whim, you can purge most rewards for gold crowns up to 2/3/4 times this night||
isn’t fates whim what the hades keepsake gives is this really what they added bro that’s so disappointing
||just fought the secret boss, was grinning like an idiot the whole time||
Welp there they are
yall how do i spoiler stuff on mobile im laying in my bed now
|| on both sides to spoiler
||who’s the secret boss what lmfao||
Also what ||secret boss?||
I'll be honest I don't think many people have seen it yet lol
yea i kept getting distracted and had to do my math homework
What's fates whim am I dumb
No rerolls or God keepsakes, once you equip one you lose it
||hades keepsake gives it, the game wants you to use all 3 of those keepsakes in a run 😭||
I have yet to get there I only got to play one game before I needed to leave for work 😔
To be fair you don't need to use them all in the same run lol
||zag is the champion of Elysium you fight, there is a contract at Charon shops you teleport to the thesius room from hades 1 and fight zag with his spear||
I absolutely steamrolled Chronos tho so were balling
||The zag one is pretty interesting tbh||
okay i’m going to bed
I haven't played enough matches in the epilogue yet 😔
Or maybe I have and just missed him, idk
Got it in my first underworld run after credits
Goodnight!
god i love where they took the ending, can't wait to see how it ends.
Should I restart my save file? EDIT: My EA file that's in endgame
They'd disagree Makuni lol
havent played surface and there's already a dialogue about ||reaching the palace||, weird
Your choice tbh, I didn't do it because I enjoy challenges through the vow. Tbh tho I run casual 40 fear so I can't say much lmao
Okay, so they haven't changed the early game so much that it's a massively different experience?
From what I've heard no, it's just mostly visual improvements. When I played it was like a week after the game came out so it was still really rough lol
Lol yeah there are going to be a bunch of portraits and models I'm excited to see
By last update it was only missing one character portrait tbh
nothing changed balancing wise right? Just the ending and stuff
When you fail a run by inches and the final boss for the area is on a sliver of health
There's a couple minor things, like you have to fix the Purging Pool before you can use it and get the incantation to put it in every in-between zone, and some NPCs showing up earlier
anyone know how I unlock the ||incantation || for || making ambrosia?|| I could really use it lmao ||I'm assuming it might be aprodite again but she hasn't offered it||
There were some small balance changes, but IIRC there were no major buffs or nerfs
I uh didnt even know that existed, hm
I definitely didn't die 10 times in a row stocking up on ambrosia lmao
old grudge is so bad its funny
Which is that again? The burst of damage?
patch notes mention it lol
Yeah, Knuckle Bones 2
wait what? you can now alter the appaerances of the familiars??
Must've skipped over it then
Has ||Chronos|| always had 2 types of attacks that can ||install-kill|| you? I took 500 damage out of nowhere after dodging the first one
burst iof damage yeah genuinely useless bc all it fdoes is skip the easiest phase
yeah you can though I've no idea how you unlock it as of yet
hey
||Urns|| my beloved
theres the targeted red circle and then the attack where most of the clock goes dark and there is a ring of saftey yeah
no the early game hasn't changed much, as someone who had 2.7 hours and restarted from 0 after 1.0 I can tell you early game is almost untouched @spiral dust
not worth the restart
well im at the part where i can get the dissolution of time
Wild, I have 130 hours on it and I guess it's my first time getting hit by the "ring of safety" attack
so maybe ill find out soon?
it be like that some times
Try going to the surface, maybe you'll find what you need there for your familiars
ah... tried
same here I'm expecting its probably just talking to someone that has a lot of stuff qued up because of the beta
Yep, that's kinda his gimmick
||Circe has it.||
probably... i just finished maxing out familiars
that bich... i have not seen her from all 4 runs i've done on surface
this is amusing because ||ive been trying to bring the knuckle bones to her for another reason and shes avoided me twice in a row now||
kept getting the safe shore
So Hecate told me that ||I can use her familiars, but they're nowhere to be seen||
Anyone figure it out yet?
Tbf I'd avoid Mel too if she came at me with brass knuckles lmao
speaking of avoiding me... I still havent seen that boar boss a single time ever
I'm starting to think this is an elaborate joke on me specifically
ull find em in the world as u play
oh hey i did not realize ||theres an achievement for killing one of hecates witches while a sheep||
gonna continue hades 2 on switch i hate having to use a controller on pc
One's on the surface route, one's in the underworld route
Spoiler: the credits song is ||beautiful||
im still waiting for the arachne spinoff tho
They forgot to activate the Infernal Trove animation?
They've been able to be obtained since the Warsong update, IIRC
Hades 2 silksong gonna be fire
Interesting. Only just had the conversation like 40 runs in
in order to gift aphrodite ambrosia, do I need to romance all the romancable characters or can I just grow closer to others instead
Question, does anyone know where I can get ||soot|| in the game, I haven't played in awhile
As much as I enjoy Hades I think they'd be better off making a game Like Bastion 2 or Transistor 2, don't run the ip into the grave
I mean, there's some nebulous stuff that you need to do first before Hec lets you recruit them, so makes sense
And I STILL can't decorate crossroads
The answer to this is yes, I got to unlock her special bond after finishing Eris romance stuff
Hell, Raki's still locked behind the RNG of finding the Erebus fountain room
I did manage to find ||Gayle on olympus|| once
any achievement hunters in chat did yall get 100%
She's still there
I have eris romanced and I cant gift Aphrodite ambrosia, did you do anyone else as well or just casual bonds
I do have mainly all of them at the highest I can gift
Well ima be trying out Sonic Crossworlds if anyone needs me, see everyone later
Does anyone know where I can get soot? I wanna do the thing to ||wake HYPNOS from his sleep||
Epilogue
I just got that one 😄
I hate the memory portion of promethius fight
Here is your daily reminder that Chronos brought a golden age to humanity, and he will do so again!
Alright, it's been 10 hours since I started playing, and I finally reached the ending. I think I'm done for the day
It's a lot quicker than I remembered it being
no spoilers 
||I'll just say that it was unexpected, I don't think anyone predicted it||
Probably could have gotten all the way to Typhon on my second Surface run if I hadn't gotten clipped by the first memory game 
although im guessing the evil olympians are finally defeatd, allowing master chronos to ascend to his rightful place as ruler of the world
so unfair to play such beautiful music in one room filling my eyes with tears only to toss me into a boss room in the next
Yeah, I was really surprised.
damn now im really intrigued
anyone got an aspect of medea build? trying to knock off the sword of night prophecy
First run back in 6 months and I beat chronos :D
||I mean... It really was weird. On one hand it makes sense, but also preventing us from killing time which was so empathised all this time... I think Mel is not that satisfied too lol||
zeus specials and either aphro ares hera or apollo on attack
||At least we got to kill the Typhon lol. But that's not as cool||
||And I was so sure Hypnos would be part of the ending||
How is it not? That was insane when it happened
It was, but come on, ||Typhon is more of a side objective. It definitely was cool, but not as impactful as actually, you know, KILLING TIME. The task this whole game revolved around even before the Typhon was introduced. Still cool though||
Fair enough
She’s too MELlow for that though 😏
||Yeah, for someone who was raised as a soldier with a goal of killing the guy, she just suddenly decides that oh well let's run with it, after being so mad at Zag for doing exactly that||
Do we know if they're going to add hell mode to hades 2? Im currently waiting for it before i start my non-ptr playthrough
||I get why Zag would do that, he only knows of Chronos from his few run-ins with Mel, but Mel herself just going along with that? It would be more in character if she tried to kill him and everyone else had to hold her back. Her life long task was just before her. By all she knows this could be a trick||
times when ||chronos traps you|| are absolute ass and awful and not fun
||ranks are back using prestige and boss items||
In Oceanus? Yeah, they're still insufferable
||her entire arc is literally unprogramming herself to be strict though||
I think they made the capture point bigger since early access launch, but it's still a massive waste of time (or a lost room reward)
@agile shoal & @wise ledge can you please move this discussion to #h2-story-discussion for now. I appreciate that you are tagging the spoilers. We just want to be cautious for now.
||do i need to turn off extreme measures for odysseus quest?||
You are right, i apologize
Yeah, sorry
Hey question anyone else kindof annoyed none of the skull aspects seem to focus on attacks?
yea it's just a waste of time. I was on a great run in ||oceanus and probably gonna be able to beat the sirens finally cause i had so many boons, hp, mana, etc and then he showed up||
Like all are spam special for most of the unique stuff about them
You can at least run out of the circle and fail, and it'll just make you lose out on the room reward
Yeeey I unlocked 35 achievements for nooow
did they fix the interaction between island getaway + glamour gain + nervous wreck
I'm so tired....
Anyway, regardless of all we discussed, I loved the story progression. Top tier game. I'm going to continue playing for the epilogue tomorrow the entire day. And achievements. And everything else.
Btw, does anybody know the reactive for Hypnos dream?
It's something from the post-game, apparently
Like, where the f can I obtain it
Ohhh! Tyyyy
yo they took all my chronos sand and typ[hon eyes man
I saw online you can get it in underground run after the ending, I am yet to do that
They said as much when the Unseen update dropped
For now I'm doing 1 run to the Underworld and 3 to the Olympus...
I just reached the ending and I think I'ma peace out lol it was amazing
I need to kill the Time
Hows the game till now guys
just started playing today, question: how many gods are in game? it feels like i keep getting the same ones for drops every run
ABSOLUTELY CINEMA
it's time
I FINALLY REACHED 100 HOURS IN HADES 2
It's kinda annoying that I feel kinda forced to take Paid Dues despite it being godawful, since it's got such a low spawn chance that I'll probably never see it again
35/50 achievements for now..IM WILLING FOR COMPLETE THE GAME
soo how do i beat the game
learn the enemies attacks
i mean the true ending ive alr beat it
There's 9 main gods. Two (technically 3, but Zeus's requirements are far less strict) are locked behind story progression
oh
ah cool, thanks!!
Zeus requires you to have encountered Apollo, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Demeter, Hestia, and Hephaestus before he shows up.
||Hera|| requires you to ||fully unlock the surface route||
||Ares|| requires you to ||fight the final boss of the surface route||
I'm having trouble with cross save, I linked my steam account, saved my game from my switch but opening it in steam I can't see my save?
oh boy I wonder what the ending will be
what does the incantation for ||greatest gift of gaia|| cost??
mel was in a coma all along
😭
Probably something you have metric tons of by the time you unlock it
does anyone know the actual answer though
also I'm so glad for the "Needed Resource" flag in the recycling menu
I cannot gift nectar to the first boon provider when starting a new run, is that a bug?
Or maybe you have to have met them first at least once, haven't met zeus yet in this save 
that you do
ending spoilers: ||I'm not sure I like the ending, the whole point of Melinoe's mission since the beginning has been "death to Chronos" and we dont get that. we dont even get to idk... lock him up forever? maybe things will be clearer post-ending, but idk if theres any more left to the story. we're just supposed to accept that Chronos is a chill guy now? I dont understand, the mission was clear, kill Chronos. since day one, its been that and we dont get it.||
Yeah its an interesting ending. I just finished so im still kinda processing it
I'm trying to find the name/link to a Hades 2 song I liked which only played so far on the first run. It played I think when I was getting my first boon. It was upbeat/aggressive. Anyone know?
||I understand that they basically showed Chronos what could have been, but that shouldnt excuse the things he did. and also we just trust that he wont do it again? if anyone has gotten further than me, let me know if theres any post-ending content that explains things. dont tell me exactly but I just wanna know||
I have not played since the Warsong update, should i just start a new file instead of continue? I did defeat the 2 end bosses a few times.
Same question for me too. But i've played pretty much all of the early access
to get the endings or ending or what not we have to clear the suface and cronos 8 times, like the og game?
How the heck do you even do that?
Do i need to raise fear to get a currency like in hades 1 raising heat?
yay just unlocked Gias Great Gift 😄
its honestly pretty similar to h1 tho, u start off with dad as the opposition and slowly break down barriers and simultaneously humanize him and find common ground just like this ending
stall curse, do damage to witch until theyre nearly dead then get cursed
Why does interacting with Moros look like a glitching TV screen
where do i file bug reports for hades ii? because when i beat ||typhoid for the first time i got the dialogues conveying shock and horror that i tried fighting typhoid|| but when i ||beat typhoid a second time then i got dialogues corresponding to amazement that i beat typhoid||
this was early access i don't know if they fixed it
strengh arcana activates after death defiance runs out right or am I wasting points by having both equipepd
typhoid 
It will, though the common wisdom is to take one or the other, not both
you can f10 ingame to send bug reports
I'm trying to understand if I need to be interacting with the raise fear board for any prophecies required to reach "100% steam achievement" completion, or if interacting with it gets you a currency to upgraded your aspects like it did in Hades 1
Also this sun worshipper duo boon is insane
It's pretty good, especially in tandem with the Night Bloom Hex
Finally down updating! That only took... 3 hours?
Both, since I'm pretty sure the Heat Fear statues are an achievement again
So is there a place to post feedback/bug reports anymore? I tried the bug reporter button but the game crashed lmao
repeatedly bite the witch for 5 damage until it dies lol
Just got the game today and I'm loving it so far. I am beyond impressed. Also love the fourth wall break with the narrator
how do you get ||hades||' keepsake?
Probably the same deal as the first game
In other words, ||you can get it once the you finish the story||
I did
||I fought chronos after the end of the story and didn't even get to enter the house of hades so...||
I know I would expect peoples to talk about gameplay spoilers in the general but keep the story stuff to the story channel. But my fault for thinking I was safe.
Speaking of gameplay features. I've started a fresh file. So far I dont regret it. I wasn't super super far anyways.
But man getting the "blessing"/u progress fast too much 7 times dosent feel good at all and his pretty annoying.
Did any1 else’s ||z sand and lens count reset|| after the update? Idk if it’s a bug or intended but I get why
They've done so so well with Hades II, holy..
❤️
My z sand stayed but all my lenses disappeared 🥲
Now Devs.. Let's go make DLCs
strength will proc once you run out of dds but it's pretty much a waste of points to have both active
i believe (spoilers) ||in his story encounter you can gift him after beating the true ending||
Giving props to the dev team for how well hades 2 runs on switch 1. I have switch 2 but i use my lite to easily pocket it while im at work lol. It runs just as beautifully on the original system as it is on the switch 2. Thank you Supergiant 
it was a painful wait for 1.0 but the game is amazing so far.
The 2nd boss is a giant progression wall. It's harder than most bosses in the first game. Also not a huge fan of the sprint change at all.
Does Athena not spawn ||in the last night after you make the incantation to kill Chronos?||
Surface
||I’ve had the Gorgon Amulet equipped for both fields of mourning and Tartarus and she has not spawned||
Are you running Toula
So like, in the book where does it say who I've given gifts to? Or does my book need to unlock more stuff
The latter
Ah ok thank you 😊
I gotta say after 1.0 im not sure if its just me rivals bosses feel harder
Must be a bug
yeah im pretty sure thats a bug
Yeah I F10'd it
were we supposed to lose all of our z sand and v lenses?
did anyone || get to the fates yet? how many runs for them? ||
“We found Zagereus! And Hades too!”
I can’t wait to NOT play the game cuz of school
just played the game for 4 hours, thank you hades 2! goodnight yall
man, scylla's new song is amazing. couldn't fully appreciate in battle with everything going on, but the youtube video is so good
when did Apollo Prominence Flare change to not having the beam come down?
did they make ||Chronos Rival|| stronger? I cant seem to beat it since 1.0 dropped when I've beaten him 32F prior...
||rival chronos|| is about the same to me i didn't notice anything
Does anyone know where you can get the third ingredient for the new medea incantation
Hey 😉
hades 2 is so cool
Agreed
I'm just mad I lost all my final boss rewards
Nearly 300 runs and it's all gone 
I have 50 hours of play, but after the release of version 1.0, 0 achievements are displayed...
sad....
the achievements should activate when u open a save
really???
im replaying the game after almost a yr of not touching it and damn thanatos aspect is finally usable
stacking normal atk speed got so much better
say did scorch get nerfed, I'm not frying everything to death anymore
the only small thing, it's a pity that the developers only made emoticons and backgrounds as a reward for converting the cards into an icon. If I had an animated frame or an animated background, I would have spent as much money as I needed.
scorch should be the same 100/sec
must be a skill issue then
iirc the only thing that scorch interaction changed was cast
cuz it was bugged to apply more than it should, now it doesn't do that :(
you can buy all of that in the points shop iirc
oh i guess not, or not yet?
I'm sorry, but no
i would also love a fancy game profile... i love the h1 profile but ive had it for years i wanna rep this game!
oh uh how do I advance the spider yuri plot?
Anybody managed to find the fates yet?
do I have to ||talk to athena only at olympus, or does calling her by keepsake work||
I cant Believe i Kinds predicted the Ending 😭😭
how to get stardust? ive done all chaos trials is the only way to buy now?
GOTY contender for Sure
also does the dog not have any costumes all the other four do but i cant change the dogs
bro i need ambrosia so bad
dog has forms
i maxed out the last early access patch and now im struggling to get enough ambrosia to progress the story 😭
how do i get them i can press g for forms on all of them but the dog
dunno weird, works for me, have u fully upgraded him?
does hecate block it with dialogue or somethin
nah, or that i know of , I just had option for forms for each oncei finished upgrading
i have the dog frog and cat max but for some reason the dog only one i cant change
try a relog?
i remember there was a quest to take transcendent embryo from start to finish on a run but i can't find it now. am i imagining it?
i have to say, im genuinely amazed at how well-optimized the game is
im able to run the game at a solid 60fps most of the time on my 4 year old laptop with integrated graphics (albeit low settings, but i can hardly tell a difference)
How does one get access to the costumes in the first place
how do i "become nights champion"?
I'm not sure if anyone else has commented on it yet, but I really like the special Salutations message you get as an early access player. Makes me feel like I was genuinely a part of something amazing over these past few years, so thank you for the little note 💖
i conquered the surface with 6 fear but it didnt do anything
idk i js got it as a encantation
you gotta keep doing surface and underword until its 32 underworld and 24 surface
one interesting thing curse of strife did that i didnt think about, is that in tartarus it makes it so taking extra chambers actually buffs the enemies lol
Hasn't happend to me yet, i'll keep playing
did r4 surface 2nd boss get buffed wit hhigher damage?
i believe so
yep we were going too ham in there ig oops
i guess we got extremely off topic
honestly prob for the best, we would have been either too salty or too insane
Costume-wise I do think this is pretty adorable

tbf it was A Lot and alot of off topic stuff
did mel coat oatk with exceptional talent get fixed?
||I said a Year ago "What if Chronos gets redeemed and u Fight him for fun or Something like Hades after getting Persephone back||
hwo do we unlock costumes?
🤔 I thought I could post images in here
Zagreus=Steven universe
Apollo really just giving random folks the gift of prophecy lmao
||I don't know of the specific requirements, only that Circe gave me the incantation||
ty
can you awaken hypnos yet
Ohhhhhhhh ok
this is gonna be a very awkward chronos fight lol, i have like no damage but i am decently tanky assuming i can get some healing from final shop
Yes
attritionmaxxing
how
I think u need to max out at least one fam
you gotta talk to him and medea
Talk to medea
and by decently tanky i mean 300 health with frosty veneer and moon water
||I wanted to ask is there a specific thing i need to do to get Ares to spawn Ive been so unlucky and I want to try out builds with him in H2||
i havent seen moon water in like 20 runs 💔 💔
I believe he turns up after reaching the final surface region
i havent even done enough runs today for eris to stop cursing me and ive seen it twice lol
Eris has never once cursed me in nearly 300 runs, how does it happen
but I did pre V.1 though😭 I need his boon badly so i can max it
you need to attempy|| final surface bos||s and u should get him on ur next run
first 10 runs of the file she will show up in between zones to give you curse of strife, meant to prevent you from going and stomping chronos night 2 or 3
Right ok
hasn't stopped the fresh file fanatics
ahhh i dont think I've made it all the way back to the final boss a 2nd time yet....thanks for the info time to try again
I got him after the first time i got all the way there, and then got him as an opener on the next run
He's a really good god too
his ok
yep, ive come close multiple times and im not even a pro lol (not that im doing it this run lol, lost a dd to random enemies
One of my favs
and by a dd i mean my only dd
ok help guys whats the new meta
you're a new meta
NO
the new meta is play the game 26 hours a day and have fun
how do you get ||soot for hypnos||?
what got buffed or neglected to get nerfed!!
probably the same as last patch which i unfortunately wouldnt know im not particularly good at the game despite hundreds of hours
very minimal balancing changes, its probably business as usual
"...Squish."
the patch notes seemed fairly long
You get it from an npc after the main ending
All familiar outfits so spoilers on outfits and all familiars:

thx
how many times do i have to kill chronos and/or the other guy to win
to be fair i didnt read them but i havent noticed many differences in my moment to moment gameplay
Nothing too massive tbh
||7 underworld, 5 surface, start with underworld to make the most sense||
starting with surface, got it
Yeah just minor changes to boons and aspects, no reworks afaik
if i beat unrivaled surface 7 times that counts right
nah it has to be both for story reasons
I'm just doing everything no fear to go as fast as possible
vow of rivals doesnt change anything though if thats what you mean
nah he's there, if i win i beat him, do not scam me
Has anyone been able to wake up Hypnos?
I'm starting to think he never wakes up lmao
Yes
just from the patch notes
You can wake him up by playing the story as normal
i guess medea is still the best if they didnt change much
I always do best with Momus
||day 2 of defending against the yuri fanfics, youtube comment section edition 😔 ||
Circi is reallly strong as well tbh
I've really gotten into Circe after this patch
no, circe is foolish
its REALLy good
I love Hel because of the fire rate. With the right build it can shred
Get a good cast boon and it does alot of good damage along with whatever other build you're runnjng
hestia cast with demi and appolo and hermes buff , its insane
i normally take demi special + all her gusts , and then the special pops the big scorches
for bugs
