[fast void]

i'm kinda surprised people are hating on my man, his boons have the best sound with the clang
plus full heph + arachne dress has a funny armour build

[crude dragon]

Perhaps

[indigo tinsel]

||Yes. And it's glorious.||

[meager garden]

idk

[gleaming parrot]

Shiva feels good after 1.0 but I haven't done higher than like 12 fear with it. Two recent great runs though

[eternal kiln]

I thank ya kindly.

[meager garden]

those bouncy balls are so bouncy

[gleaming parrot]

It costs enough to immediately unlock a few hexes

[potent snow]

Coat is not fun at all for me. How to have fun with Coat ?

[rapid plaza]

posidon is pretty high on utility not power for sure. until you get froth. froth is insane

[fast void]

what vows do you pick btw

[eternal kiln]

And my balls are always bouncing, my ballroom always full
And everybody comes and comes again
If your name is on the guest list, no one can take you higher
Everybody says I've got great balls of fire

[meager garden]

idk I've given froth a lot of tries, and it's never cracked top 5 damage

if you're doing less damage than nyx's omegaboost, we're gonna have to have a chat

[gleaming parrot]

Shiva + Wolf Howl really feels like it should be illegal. You can just hex constantly via special omega > hex > special omega > hex

[eternal kiln]

Take Aphrodite and just punch the freaking hell out of everything.

[rapid plaza]

It's free damafe though. (if you hit, chance to deal 50 more) it's never going to top the charts but free damage for hitting a boss which hopefully you're already trying to do

[meager garden]

blitz is 100 damage
wounds grievous blow is x2 damage
Scorch is hard to estimate in this situation but still
kinda hard to justify

my personal suspicion is that froth just does not deal that much damage and affect kill times, and is there for emotional support (and also more consistent origination I guess)

[gleaming parrot]

You can inflict froth in many more ways, like any omega, or passively, etc. It's probably not going to compare in direct damage, but it's harder to compare objectively because damage doesn't represent application and etc as well

[fast void]

wolf howl is just so broken for some weapons you just get infinite uses if you have a singular mana boon

[meager garden]

doesn't froth only have two boons to apply it
and one is a secondary

[gleaming parrot]

It's any splash attack I thought

[thin island]

Question about late late game stuff
||after you get rid of typhon, you obviously go back to the crossroads and people and they obviously are gonna comment on that fact.... but for some reason, friendship dialogues take priority over that? So like, my bf missed out on Eris, Icarus, and Schelemeus having anything to say about Typhon being dead because he's still leveling bonds. Is the post-typhon dialogue a one time thing or is it something you can get later in post-game?||

[meager garden]

no you need slippery slope
the only other source is cast

[gleaming parrot]

Yeah, but through Slippery Slope, any splash inflicts froth and I feel like there are more sources of splash than some other curses, etc

I'm not arguing setup cost / efficiency, I'm just pointing out that after it's setup, it feels like you can easily inflict froth to anything in a versatile way, etc

[meager garden]

my problem with it is that it costs either an atk/special slot or cast, neither of which are really worth it I think

[gleaming parrot]

It doesn't, though. You can have boons that splash nearby enemies going to attack for passive, or peripheral omega cast splash, or beach ball, or splash on every omega, etc

[meager garden]

you can't get slippery slope without poseidon atk/spec

[gleaming parrot]

If that's true, I think I must not register it with all the separate splash sources

And I'd bug report it tbh, because the boon is "Your splash effects from Poseidon also inflict Froth, and Froth deals more damage." since it isn't specifying that

Those are the requirements

[meager garden]

bah

[gleaming parrot]

That's not stating it only affects those two damages

[meager garden]

but yeah, you cannot get slippery slope without poseidon atk/spec

[rapid plaza]

full moon wolf howl/dark are the only selune's I'm happy to see

[rose canyon]

Trial of Slaughter is insane lmao I got 84% plasma against shepherd guy

[unreal hare]

The worst thing about waking up at 6 am today, taking a 3 hour bus, waiting 2 hours in a hospital, having to do shopping for 1 more hour and finally driving back home for another 3 hours is that I can't play hades 2

[prisma monolith]

Does gorgon amulet remove fates whim?

[unreal hare]

Idk but it IS an Olympian boon so probably?

[neat thicket]

this than axe build isnt what it was supposed to be but its worked out really well

[plucky dew]

i love the big metor

[rapid plaza]

bro at that point, ask a stranger to lend you their stam deck for an hour. I'm sorry you had to go through that

[meager garden]

or a switch

[unreal hare]

I could've brought my switch but I didn't 😭

I didn't wanna carry it with me all day

[rose canyon]

Chaos would definitely use Judgment and pick a different weapon each run

[crude dragon]

Chaos determines their run by which weapon rolled Grave Thirst

[neat thicket]

nah, chaos downloaded mods to have the shield in hades 2 and uses the shield of chaos

[meager garden]

actually I think chaos is a crazy person who pushes an aspect until 62 fear or so and then drops it for years

[cosmic swift]

Dumb ||phase two Chronus just wrecked me||

[meager garden]

they're so focused on experimentation and limits, after all

[meager garden]

stand in the safe circles

[cosmic swift]

I didn't make it in time

[brazen ibex]

Dare I say skill issue

[cosmic swift]

I agree with that

[livid wharf]

does ||Zag|| getting harder to beat?|| i mean i first time met him in zone 1 with literally 2 boons and i used up all DDs to beat him.... also Zag's statue from decoration is funny after i purchased it||

[serene forge]

Took more damage than Eris than Typhon this run lol,

Nergal strength is so fun

[cosmic swift]

Eris is a nightmare though

[brazen ibex]

||Zag is fun because you can see him in area 1 but if you beat him there you get a ton of free stuff. Tbh maybe not worth all DDs tho?||

[livid wharf]

extra tips, if u get the arcana card that block 3 hits from guardian, it actually block the death blow i think (if you still have 3 blocks left), also the 6 water element from Demeter also can block heavy damage iirc. OR the 200 dmg leap in mid air actually you are invulnerable from damage

[serene forge]

||Dora dialogue line about the chidis, Mel saying they're not suitable for children and will gain value with time, hilarious||

[cosmic swift]

Noted

[brazen ibex]

The water demeter boon only subtracts 10 from anything over 20

The one-shot does like 400 lol so you're still gonna die

You can theoretically dodge it though, unless it's unique

[rose canyon]

I can't play strength I'm still a noob

Give me death defiances or I retire

[neat thicket]

alright im gonna go try the prophecy to beat hecate with no arcana

[livid wharf]

ah another one i remember, ARMOR too i think can block , like if you get at least 1 armor and you can take 100 damage hit to deplete it into 0? so the 200 damage beam, if you upgrade far more enough, few of the upgrades generate temporary armor also can block some heavy hits too

[serene forge]

||only starting to use strength now I was a death defy truther back when strength was simply better lol||

[livid wharf]

yeah maybe, i may mixed up with other defensive boon because i don't do math lol

[brazen ibex]

Wait
Wait
Oh my God
I only just realized that Dies Irae is used in both main themes

HOW DID I NOT REALISE THIS
DARRENNNNNNNN

[rose canyon]

How big is strength boost again

[meager garden]

Strength is really cool and fun and I encourage yall try it

[potent snow]

:(

[meager garden]

Healing with strength is so good. Wayward son and fountains are so much better

[neat thicket]

huh i just realized which 2 non new keepsakes im missing and im kinda surprised to what they are

[brazen ibex]

There Is No Escape from the first game is literally just Dies Irae

[potent snow]

Is Strength still generally better than DD

[brazen ibex]

Or rather Death and I

[tacit crag]

So is the natural talent prophecy bugged. did the chaos trial with no arcana and didnt get it

[prisma mountain]

Anyone know how to get the enchantment for auto mat collecting after leaving an area?

[brazen ibex]

I cannot believe this
Its not even praise to Darren bc of course it would be Dies Irae

[neat thicket]

might be because it was a chaos trial? im doing it just in a regular run rn so we'll see

[livid wharf]

gaia hand right?

[prisma mountain]

Yeah

[brazen ibex]

You have to be very late in the game
Presumably after getting the true epilogue? And also having a bunch of resources and upgrades

[tacit crag]

actually i also did a regular run without arcana and still didnt get it

[brazen ibex]

It's really a thing where you only get it after you stop needing resources

[prisma mountain]

Bruh that's useless to me now theb lol

[brazen ibex]

And makes stuff like plentiful forage and element gathering more convenient lol

[serene forge]

-40% damage received +20% dealt

[plucky dew]

not good enough for it, i need my safetynet

[livid wharf]

i don't remember because i played beta i first thing is focus all resources thing max out first, i guess that is the key before enable it to auto collect all stuff

[brazen ibex]

I consider strength to be just as good as DD if you have wayward son

[meager garden]

you dont need to be "good" for it. Trust me

[formal merlin]

Dun dun dundun

[brazen ibex]

The only thing that strength screws you on is... Chronos' oneshot

[meager garden]

ok yeah thats fair but it makes mob rooms a lot easier I think

attrition is a lot less brutal with strength

[stark charm]

Just dont get stunned before chronos one shot 4Head

[meager garden]

sorry hourglass got me

[brazen ibex]

And even then that's only a problem on Unrivalled Chronos because of foolish mistakes (and a little rng)

[neat thicket]

lmao i doubt im getting natural talent this run, didnt pay attention and im now somehow running around with aspect of pan not artemis, so i instantly took a hit in the hecate fight

[brazen ibex]

Seriously chronos why do you always do the oneshots at the opposite ends of the arena every time

[livid wharf]

till now i don't know how to beat rival Chronos... except supay because auto aim

[brazen ibex]

Its an exercise in excessive running

[stark charm]

Also, one of the nice benefits of Strength is easy access to ||Athena|| of course

[brazen ibex]

You aren't allowed to attack him at the beginning of phase 2

[livid wharf]

as in got any tips of finding real chronus in phase 3 or something?

[brazen ibex]

And for phase 3 you just run around the edge of the arena until he's done aura farming

[neat thicket]

damn i got so close though even though it was the wrong aspect, she was literally like 1 hit

[brazen ibex]

You can't attack the clone
He summons it to waste time lmao
You have to run when either are doing the dash swing spam, no openings there

[meager garden]

its so hard to hit him during phase 3

feels like I gotta be nonstop running away like its a horror movie

[brazen ibex]

Yeah chronos phase 3 is a real exercise in patience and finding openings

[neat thicket]

OH MY GOD FINALLY I CAN ACTUALLY TRACK BOONS

[livid wharf]

sounds like suicide if i enable time limit stage 1 with other weapons, except superior supay

[brazen ibex]

You have to know when yo go in like the back of your hand otherwise you get bonked

[meager garden]

bro learned from the elden ring school of thought

[livid wharf]

aint it enabled few patches ago?

[brazen ibex]

Chronos phase 3 is closer to an elden ring boss than a Hades boss and I'm so serious

[meager garden]

timer 1 is like, 36 minutes, you should be fine

[neat thicket]

i didnt have the incantation on new file

[brazen ibex]

He's genuinely a lot like Consort Radahn with how mobile and aggressive he is

Letting your inner elden ring player take over will help you I mean it

Also learn the timing for his big scythe swings they're easy to iframe once you get the hang of it

[meager garden]

But I didnt bring my cheesy jump double greatsword build

[brazen ibex]

Yes you did. Hell Splitter axe

[neat thicket]

maybe for natural talent instead of taking my new favourite keepsake i should take knuckle bones, make life alot easier lol

[meager garden]

doesnt he do 3 back to back

[brazen ibex]

Starting from phase 1.5 he does a 3 move combo of either swing, dash or throw

Any amount any order, watch for the telegraphs of each

[meager garden]

I hate his fast slam

[serene forge]

Hermes legendary + ||Chronos keepsake|| this run is over

[brazen ibex]

Oh and for rivals he gets a slam that also hits behind him lul, that can be in the combo

[meager garden]

idk I havent done him ever since they nerfed frenzy on him, maybe hes a lot easier to read now

[brazen ibex]

I'm scared of frenzy 2 chronos for no reason other than the triple obliterate

[meager garden]

I just remever it was like BAM BAm BAM without gaps

[brazen ibex]

That damn center bubble clips me every time and ruins my run (strength moment)

[meager garden]

its so funny

I love the troll bubble

[brazen ibex]

There is not a single person on the planet that hasn't gotten got by that bubble

[stark charm]

Its like the first time you try to hug em4 hades to avoid his lasers

[meager garden]

that bubble is masterful design
"Yep, you just got called out. Wait for 3 seconds helplessly before you die horribly."

[brazen ibex]

You've heard of "hug your dad" now get ready for "run circles around your grandpa" (the way to dodge vr4 opening move is to run around the edge of the arena)

[plucky dew]

my 5 revives against typhon disagree

[gleaming parrot]

I immediately ran into it the first time and was so confused I had like 3HP at the end, then survived surprisingly long. It definitely threw me off

[hazy bough]

is there a prophecy for ||reaching the end with an arachne dress||? there was some dialogue that suggested i should do that but i would like to know if the game will recognize it in an official-ish capacity

[brazen ibex]

In my best Typhon impression
COOOWAAARRDDD...

[neat thicket]

achievement

[plucky dew]

and proud of it

[hazy bough]

ty!

[brazen ibex]

Imagine being Greek Myth Godzilla and getting beat by an ant

[neat thicket]

lmao not only did i beat no arcana hecate, with the wrong aspect, i nohitted

[brazen ibex]

Typhon has 0 aura
Also he probably smells

[meager garden]

typhon has more aura than chronos

[brazen ibex]

The fact that Echida isn't in this game implies that his wife left him

[meager garden]

typhon spawns lovecraft lil monsters

[brazen ibex]

We stan a single father

[neat thicket]

||lmao woops, chronos was the first bond forged on this file||

[meager garden]

he has eggs so it implies that she dropped a fresh batch with him

[brazen ibex]

Prometheus playthrough

By the way

[neat thicket]

ima see how far i can actually get without arcana

[brazen ibex]

With ||Jewelled Pom, if you get Deep Dissent or Old Grudge on the surface, it will apply to Typhon||

So he summons less eggs or takes a burst of damage
I wonder if it stacks with knuckle bones for an instant phase

[astral bough]

lmao in polish translation when u go to ||persephone in your codex you can see the text about hermes bond forged||

[neat thicket]

took some damage since i was kinda reckless but arcanaless scylla beaten

[nova oar]

It does

[brazen ibex]

Ooh
Since Typhons first phase change triggers at 75% about, does it overflow

[wheat fog]

if i skip || zag fight contract || in charons shop do i not get any second chances to || fight him || again

[nova oar]

No idea, I would assume not, it just goes straight to the eggs

[brazen ibex]

It would be nice if he had a health bar to test these things SUPERGIANT

[wheat fog]

typhon not having a hp bar adds a charm and uniqueness to him tho

[meager garden]

hes a monster hunter fight

because hes a monster

[brazen ibex]

I think it should be an incantation

[wheat fog]

gyuz please i wanna beat him but like i have 3 boons rn

[nova oar]

I do agree that overall it is better to not have the health bar, but I also want an incantion

[brazen ibex]

Like Chronos and pausing

[serene forge]

You'll get chances in future runs

[nova oar]

You do not iirc

[wheat fog]

alright the game expects me to beat him with 110 hp and 3 boons

[serene forge]

(and you can!)

[nova oar]

Have you considered not getting hit

[wheat fog]

if i was good and playing on a lower fear i could

[uncut galleon]

my idea was that his tongue could be echidna, since it has its own head and a different color scheme, and shoots the eggs

is never commented on in the game though

[tacit crag]

I was told you dont need the prophecy on your list in order to fulfill it, was that a lie

[nova oar]

Whoever told you lied lmao

[tacit crag]

yeah that mustve been the problem

[nova oar]

Which prophecy?

[tacit crag]

natural talent. ive beat hecate with no arcana 3 times now lol

[nova oar]

You need the prophecy

[neat thicket]

cerb with mel daggers is fun lol, especially with the hammer for extra backstab damage and no arcana

[tacit crag]

how do i even get it. i know some guy who got it early on, but ive already cleared some runs and havent gotten it

[brazen ibex]

Secret boss is low key intentionally easy bc he's supposed to wear you down in early areas for greater reward

This is why strength players stay winning because we don't have such weaknesses

[neat thicket]

||well thanks to jeweled pom i have the best possible duo of hades boons lol, old grudge and deep dissent||

[brazen ibex]

Hey deep dissent is goated on rivals 4

[neat thicket]

its also great when you have 0 arcana

[brazen ibex]

||Jewelled pom giving you life tax sucks though||

If I wanted that healing I'd take ghost onion

[wheat fog]

how do i gift || kchronos || guys

[brazen ibex]

He's in-between Erebus and Oceanus sometimes

If you don't get him you can just intentionally die LUL

[wheat fog]

do i gotta do anything to unlock the gift option, still cant gift him

[brazen ibex]

A couple convos first
Possibly beat Chronos at the end of the run a couple times too

[earnest leaf]

does anyone know if i take highly flammable(i do more scorch the first time to each enemy) with hestia anddemeter duo boon(whenever i freeze a scorched enemy it removes teh scorch and deals damage) if after i remove teh scorch higly flammable is reaplied, orits only once per enemy?

[neat thicket]

oh boy its time to see if i can beat chronos with no arcana

[midnight notch]

Man is it confusing to me still that i have to kill chronos multiple times to achieve certain progress points ^^ every run brings new development, counterintuitive to my little monkey brain

[brazen ibex]

As far as I can tell it's once per enemy but it would be goated if it was every scorch proc from 0

[earnest leaf]

ty

[brazen ibex]

Do some testing

In the name of science !

[earnest leaf]

oh i already took another one. ill test it another time an report back

[neat thicket]

ok i nohit phase 1

OH AND I DID IT

[wheat fog]

can i get || zag fight || In surface

[brazen ibex]

Goated

[brazen ibex]

Yes but only for the first 2 areas (is what I've heard)

[neat thicket]

i really like that nothing about that no arcana build was intended either

[woeful kettle]

hey guys, do you know how to transfer my save from steam to switch 2?

[brazen ibex]

The folks at #h2-tech-support probably know if it's possible

👍 okay good

Goddamn you need so much ambrosia

WHY I GOTTA GIVE SKELLY THREE AMBROSIA FOR THE BOND

[neat thicket]

alright time to go beat up poly with knuckle bones, taking judgement for this because its funny

[brazen ibex]

HE CANT EVEN DRINK IT

[wheat fog]

he gave you 3 free statues for doing what youre supposed to do its only fair

[brazen ibex]

Those statues were not free I had to suffer

[neat thicket]

i mean the first two kinda are free though lol

[brazen ibex]

He should be paying me further for damages

[neon urchin]

how to not die in heaven

[brazen ibex]

If you're in heaven then I have bad news about not dying

[neon urchin]

i think theres something to craft

[brazen ibex]

That there is

[neat thicket]

ayy i got the second hypnos craft from medea, can finally progress that

[neon urchin]

wats the name. the girl said earlier

[brazen ibex]

Keep going up there and gathering resources and see if they do anything ;)

[unreal hare]

What are your favorite hephaestus builds?

[neat thicket]

heph legendary on nergal or morrigan (on morrigan you also put him on the special to use)

[unreal hare]

Nergal heph is so fun

[merry whale]

persephone heph seems to be popular, gambling machine

[gleaming parrot]

I've had more than one bonkers Anubis > Heph attack runs

[rich salmon]

Idk why mel hates scylla songs so much this is fire

[short silo]

Game really makes you work for that almighty cerberus pet huh

[neat thicket]

oh and actually thats even better in 1.0

[merry whale]

i could see like ||zag keepsake start and find heph|| lol

[wheat fog]

heph atk/special + 1000 poms 🤑

[short silo]

She admits it's all bs and she actually likes them if you play enough

[merry whale]

i happened to get a mel axe 62 run with heph, it's so dumb but so funny lmao

[rich salmon]

Fr like banger after banger they just don’t miss
Supergiant should just become music producers at this point and make more scylla and the sirens songs /j
i mean hey look at huntrix bands from games/movies are clearly very popular

[unreal hare]

Kda is huge

[rich salmon]

Thats the league of legends one right?

[wheat fog]

why do people glaze mel axe so badly whats so good about this

[neat thicket]

max health run

[unreal hare]

One of the many league ones yes

[meager garden]

idk

[rich salmon]

Big number go up

[wheat fog]

how do i make that big number

[merry whale]

big, big, big shot

it scales stupidly good with % boons like aphro or apollo or hera etc

[rich salmon]

Hit stuff, ugh in all seriousness i guess put something with a high dmg percentage like aphro on it and pom it a lot? Thus big number?

[neat thicket]

wait does the nobody but nobody prophecy not happen if you have rivals on? thats unfortunate

[wheat fog]

i have +60% attack speed deos that help

[dull talon]

||I'm willing to tolerate the lackluster ending, but please, at least let me revisit Palace of Zeus and the House of Hades 😭||

[rich salmon]

Does that have something to do with odyssseus?

[neat thicket]

yeah, its beating up poly with the bones

[unreal hare]

Nobody took his eye
Who is that Nobody

[rich salmon]

Oh i thought it was gonna have something to do with reuniting him with Penelope…

[unreal hare]

I misread that lol

[gleaming parrot]

Since launch I've done maybe 2-3 runs of nearly every aspect. At least on low fear, everything feels pretty good save for specific synergies like Fluid Gain > Hidden Coat just being mana hungry. At least on low fear ones like Eos, Moros, Persephone, Circe all feel pretty great

[cosmic swift]

Idk what's worse Chronus or typon rn

[gleaming parrot]

Trying not to overlook any specific aspects I'd not done much with through EA but I think they're all in a pretty good spot, at least at max rank

[barren junco]

Do we know the highest possible FREEZE duration?

[neat thicket]

i keep meaning to give selene nectar and i keep forgetting lol

[barren junco]

I was able to get like +7 on cold storage and that was around +6 or so bonus seconds on top of whateve base ice strike has and felt insanely good

[rich salmon]

Just throw it at the sky and hope she catches it

[prisma monolith]

What's not to like

Simple and good, people like simple

[merry whale]

big number awooga

[barren junco]

axe with any attack area increase is just very fun.

[wheat fog]

idk if my build is bad but this does not give me higher numbers than charon axe

[prisma monolith]

Why does it need to give higher numbers to be good?

[barren junco]

do that one early chaos trial for massive axe numbers

[neat thicket]

time for ||the third attempt to wake hypnos||

[wheat fog]

oh ffs 6 people told me "people like big numbers people like mel axe" and now it doesnt need higher numbers

[prisma monolith]

They said big numbers, not "bigger than charon" did they?

[signal basalt]

Wait wait does ||Zagreus in the secret fight|| kill you through death defiances?

[prisma monolith]

It does give big numbers, maybe not as big as charon, but that doesn't make it small

[wheat fog]

not big enough if its not the biggest

[prisma monolith]

Grow up

[prisma monolith]

No

[signal basalt]

I must not have been paying attention haha, mf oneshot me WOW

[merry whale]

nah

[signal basalt]

What do you get for beating him?

[prisma monolith]

A free item before every boss

It doesn't have to be in the shop

[merry whale]

i thought it was free item for every shop 🤔 i swear i remember it happening

[prisma monolith]

Its a free extra item in a pedestal, nothing to do with the shop

[merry whale]

i mean it should appear in every shop

[prisma monolith]

It also appears if you take the non shop chamber

[merry whale]

o

that's very funky but i see

[prisma monolith]

And is not in every shop, is in the pre boss chamber

[neat thicket]

welp ||waking hypnos up was something i suppose||

[merry whale]

ig i got mixed up cuz there's no midshop in fields or tart

[merry whale]

it is an experience of time

[neat thicket]

im at 24/50 achievements now and i am going to bed

[prisma monolith]

You can get it in tart, and oceanus does have a midshop, but the item won't be there, only before scylla

[stuck gazelle]

Book of Shadows now works differently than before?
it's kinda interesting. i like how it was before but this is also cool

[prisma monolith]

Works around the same? Wdym

[stuck gazelle]

slight difference

[prisma monolith]

Well you wanna elaborate?

[merry whale]

gotta be very slight cuz i haven't noticed a thing

[astral bough]

are there any encounters with ||The fates|| other than the first one?

[brave urchin]

I laughed and giggled. :3

[sand haven]

Is it intended that ||Nemesis|| can replace non-combat encounters, like ||meeting Echo in Fields||? It's the first time I've ever seen it happen.

[prisma monolith]

No

[astral bough]

bruhhhh

[prisma monolith]

Yes

[merry whale]

that's just a story event

[brisk timber]

is it too late for sg to completely rework the games ending in an update </3

[astral bough]

i hope there will be in future updates

[prisma monolith]

Yes, they cna always release redemption dlc

But i highly doubt it will happen

[merry whale]

i don't think sgg should rework the story as much as i would like to see it happen, it's smth they can learn from lol

[brisk timber]

we can only hope
i love the game have like 220 hours in it so far but the ending really left me disappointed
love everything else though

[prisma monolith]

Only think I disliked about the ending was hypnos, im ok with the rest

[violet rampart]

i just got that yesterday im hoping epilogue will improve it when i get tto that

[merry whale]

i was upset with arachne's plotline that ||there wasn't a human form|| so i made it myself

[brave urchin]

I think since this game is kinda bringing the message "can´t change the past, but live in the present and look for a better future".

So the game doesn´t "undo" anything bad that happened to the characters.

[merry whale]

mmm, that makes sense, i'm just still ||kinda flabbergasted that mel never truly stands up for arachne to athena, she's kinda like "so ur just gonna be a stubborn ass about it, aight understandable"||

[golden solar]

Arachne fumbled it, nothing to save lmao

[merry whale]

arachne was entirely justified

[brave urchin]

Wait what did she do?

[golden solar]

I thought athena was the bad guy in this storyline, but no, it's just arachne being arrogant tbf

[brave urchin]

What did she dooooo?

[golden solar]

Arachne before being turned to a spider was a human weaver, and after winning against athena in a competition or sth, she called athena's work crap and got turned into a spider for it

Like, didn't need to rub it in to an effin god, you know?

[buoyant matrix]

did she rub it in? i thought athena just got angry that a human was better than her

[golden solar]

I thought it was athena being jealous, but no, it's just arachne being rude

[merry whale]

||athena literally cursed her to become a spider for eternity, and accuses melinoe of "groveling" for even asking to lift the curse, then arachne learns the one person she thought was trustworthy (hecate) was responsible for her curse, yea arachne's gonna f-in crash out at athena lmao||

[violet rampart]

i mean sure its not good but to be turned into a spider for it is a bit much

[gleaming parrot]

Most versions of the story have Arachne weave sacrilegious imagery, mocking the gods

[golden solar]

That's gods vs humans in this story for you

[merry whale]

||it's athena's dumbass ego that never gets questioned by mel who's too dumb to ask the simple question of "why are the olympians so bad"||

[violet rampart]

typical pwer abuse

[golden solar]

Don't get me wrong, it's both of these characters in the wrong

[meager garden]

I dont really like Arachne that much tbh, she is super unchill

[violet rampart]

agree with that

[meager garden]

(||Athena|| is definitely 100% prick mode in this quest tho)

[violet rampart]

im more curious about dora though

[golden solar]

Did you finish the whole thing?

[loud stirrup]

is it really deserving of being turned into an insect for all of eternity though? lol she just did some trash talk

[merry whale]

||yea sure the character that gets cursed for all eternity just because someone else is holding an eternal grudge is in the wrong too sure||

[meager garden]

no they wont talk about it

[golden solar]

I thought the same but the ending kinda reminded me athena is a goddess of wisdom and she probably wouldn't make a decision like that out of jealousy.

[merry whale]

||athena doesn't deserve respect||

[gleaming parrot]

In terms of challenging the gods, Arachne's curse is pretty light compared to other examples like Bellerophon

[golden solar]

A lot of gods don't deserve respect tbf

[meager garden]

at least it wasnt prometheus levels?

[violet rampart]

she also didnt get ripped to pieces and got those spread all over taratoros

[merry whale]

tru

[gleaming parrot]

Maybe humans shouldn't be so bold as to challenge gods too

[meager garden]

I mean sisyphus is iconic and he just like, got over it

[merry whale]

prometheus is respectable because he has integrity

[violet rampart]

what you think is worse prom or chrono punishment?

[merry whale]

ah punishments

[meager garden]

ooh tough question I think

[violet rampart]

he got a boulder friend he is the winner in life

[meager parrot]

god why are PAN daggers still soo weak. I would of hoped with 1.0 some of its drastic nerfs would of been addressed. Cuz atm it's insanely underpowered to other aspects compared to what it used to be able to do

[violet rampart]

hence why i ask both are terrible but which punishment was worse

[gleaming parrot]

Tantalus

[meager garden]

I guess prom. Chronos's post death doesnt seem to be painful, just humiliating

[violet rampart]

fair though i do wonder was any of it deserved though granted im not to knowledgable about the myths regarding titans

[meager garden]

also isnt daedalus also a punishment? Idk if it was by the gods

bro was in a tower with his son

[gleaming parrot]

He was imprisoned by a mortal king, not gods

[brave urchin]

||That's so pety of Athena though. I thought she'd be the strategist. Why would she do something so pointless.
(I am aware this is based on the actual mythology, but for in game Athena this sounds out of character).||

[gleaming parrot]

It's easy to think of it as petty from a mortal sympathizing with another mortal, but in this universe actual gods exist on a level above mortals, and a lot of the punishments/transformations are from that perspective

[dreamy zinc]

DID THEY UNCAP HESTIA AGAIN?

[violet rampart]

i mean if you would take it to extreme because of it might casue humanity to belittle gods in general which could eventually lead to war between god and mortal kind this curse would dether humanity to do so

[meager garden]

no

[neon matrix]

huh no

[dreamy zinc]

i just saw it go to 1200

[merry whale]

hestia godsent can go past 999

[meager garden]

ah

[dreamy zinc]

that'll do it. i thought they un-nerfed her for a second 🙁

dont get me wrong, she was totally busted, but i still miss it

[violet rampart]

so i went for ending recently used ||new hidden aspect for minor proph|| but doesn't trigger in that case

[merry whale]

should f10 it (the hidden aspect prophecy)

[merry whale]

tru

[grizzled trench]

real OGs remember when hestia was trash tier

[violet rampart]

kinda stange i think it clogs that up

[merry whale]

warsong patch was so weird lmaoo

[brave urchin]

I mean you could interpret that the gods make the world go around and morals should be thankful I guess.

[pure kernel]

Has anyone else gotten all rank 5 weapons in beta and still can't give ambrosia to Hephaestus after full release?

[dreamy zinc]

i started a week or two before warsong, didnt get to know the game enough for patches to matter in that time

[brave urchin]

They are just so personificated in the game that you forget what they do.

[wheat fog]

keep talking to him till u get the dialogue for bond

[merry whale]

iirc i started right in the middle of warsong

[meager garden]

Heph uses(and probably invented) rebar so hes the best god

[dreamy zinc]

the game may have another dialogue tree going for him right now, so it wont work until you finish that

[wheat fog]

also can anyone guide me on the fates, im in the ||"investigate the underworld and the surface"|| prophecy but idk what to do, i've cleared both

[neon matrix]

lmfao i remember when u could just poseidon special spam on momus and win 40f

[grizzled trench]

run both once then talk to moros iirc

[stuck gazelle]

Before whenever you kill a new enemy it immediately shows there. Now it doesn't, you have to first kill a specific number then it will show there (I'm not sure about this maybe i got mixed up with other specific game)
and wasnt before if you kill a specific more number of enemies it will show more information about them? now all the information revealed at once. this also apply for the Nocturnal Arms and each region
Also this change im certain of, now you HAVE TO give NPCs a nectar in order of them to appear there.
yea ig these are main changes that i noticed compared to the game when it first got released ea with ofc the new art updates

[pure kernel]

Thank you @dreamy zinc and @wheat fog ^^ gonna keep farming away now

[wheat fog]

also i love it so much that the new keepsakes finally make you change the arcana, the only thing that people have been changing in their arcana decks are strength and dd

[dreamy zinc]

good luck

[prisma monolith]

I had characters in there before gifting them, namely hades for example

[merry whale]

ye i like it a lot surprisingly

[prisma monolith]

I love the new keepsakes because they didn't make me change my arcana

[merry whale]

been rolling with death and strength simultaneously for the funs

[prisma monolith]

Certified reroll hater

[merry whale]

with this patch? rerolls suuuck LOL

[wheat fog]

how does one hate rerolls, before 1.0

[prisma monolith]

I never need them, so I have no use for them

[merry whale]

like old gambling sucked

new gambling is fun cuz it feels like u can actually make use of what ur given and kick ass

[dreamy zinc]

its been early access for over a year, unless im misreading your question

[buoyant matrix]

red I'm thinking of fearmogging you with a 63 on mel axe when i have time, would you be willing to grind that

[winter oak]

The fact that I can't see || uh-oh's || attack animations at all pisses me off

[wheat fog]

what build do you use for mel axe 🙏 i gotta see some good builds that others use cause i can't make one myself

[merry whale]

u can do 63 then i can do 64 right after

[stuck gazelle]

there are a few special cases and also i think you cant gift him? or at least for now

[merry whale]

unless i skip to 65 then u have to do 67

[prisma monolith]

I was strong pre 1.0 without rerolls, 1.0 just sent me to olympus

I'm the hecates strongest warrior

[buoyant matrix]

what pact would you run for 64, void3 with 1 ward?

[prisma monolith]

You can, the option was always there, despite him neglecting the gift

[merry whale]

wtf put 2 wards on

[stuck gazelle]

yea that what i mean lol

[prisma monolith]

All you need is to meet the character, not gift them

Which makes sense, why would they codex have someone you haven't met

[buoyant matrix]

apollo attack with huntress

[buoyant matrix]

cba to deal with them smh my head

[merry whale]

https://tenor.com/view/rat-attack-rat-attack-have-at-thee-gif-11648161592664583090

no way are embed privileges gone

did i piss off john supergiant

[buoyant matrix]

upload the vod

[prisma monolith]

From this channel, yeah, I assume to prevent accidentally spoilers

[merry whale]

ah makes sense

[dreamy zinc]

no, john pissed off phil supergiant, and this was his revenge. turning the community against him

[merry whale]

damn phil supergiant on a rampage fr

[prisma monolith]

An accidental spoiler message is a thing, but a picture is hard to ignore

[stuck gazelle]

did you start a new file?
because now you have to give them even if you met them lol

[buoyant matrix]

i wanna see how you deal with "wards" (🤮🤢) on mel axe

[merry whale]

check my post in #self-promotion

[prisma monolith]

No, but i met new characters

[prisma monolith]

The same way I do with any other weapon, by smacking them

[stuck gazelle]

well you gotta try a new file and see for yourself lol
anyway i dont see this a bad thing but a change ig

[still phoenix]

Is there any way at all to view what boons each God gives while in-game? Like during a run for example?

[merry whale]

eventually yes, it's related to giving nectar to each and every one of the gods iirc

kinda dumb that it works like that but it do be like that

[still phoenix]

I see thanks

Guess I'll just have the wiki constantly open for now then

[proper lake]

||in the seek us quest, when they say she who trained you do they mean hecate?||

[livid wharf]

i love air quality, all the small damage boon such as electric chain, gust from zeus and demeter turn into big one lol....

[prisma monolith]

We found the one air quality fan

[meager garden]

I think air quality is cool

makes gust like 250 dps

also its on zeus, zeus and demeter are my support homies

[violet rampart]

i really have been liking hepheistos recelty

which is funny seeing i avoided him at start of ea

[plucky dew]

i like hestia and Zeus the most, give me that juicy ranged cast

[still phoenix]

What are yalls opinions on which is the best Gain boon?

[violet rampart]

you mean mana?

[buoyant matrix]

ok so @merry whale , just watched the run and the one comment I'll leave is that the frinos skin was, indeed, L

[sonic spear]

Should i switch the Zeus keepsake when reaching Oceania to something else? Or will the zeus boon still be guaranteed at the stary of tue second zone?

[violet rampart]

not it expired also says that if you go to cabinet

[still phoenix]

Yeah Born Gain, Cardio Gain, Aetheric Font Gain. Which one do you think is best?

[merry whale]

aight, frinos skin will be changed

only if u do 63

[violet rampart]

feel is a preference thing i like aphorodite one seeing i like to combo it with other boons of her but there are other options i think zeus one is pretty good im not sure how good hestia is think it sounds better then it is especially on heavy mana weapons like torch

[native agate]

Does anyone know the requirements to unlock the garden upgrades? I'm at 35+ runs and still have been locked to 2 plots of soil. About to kill Granddad and was wondering what I'm I missing?

[rough horizon]

Purely for magick, born gain (it works well in any situation and doesn't force you to interrupt combat a bit or weave in other strikes)

[buoyant matrix]

brother I don't have the TIME
I'm probably grinding prometheus c2 this weekend

[still phoenix]

How about Hestia's Cardio Gain where you regen Mana for attacking and specials, is that efficient? I feel that it kinda is for certain Aspects.

[buoyant matrix]

yeah it's great on some aspects

[violet rampart]

i think its good on some aspects but it doesnt regain enough on torches i find

[buoyant matrix]

use your base special and it will

[livid wharf]

depends what weapon, if mana hunger weapon like Supay, born gain
but still need get some mana pool upper limit too

[violet rampart]

fair

[livid wharf]

i always like to group up gods boon into 2 big group, earth-fire or air-water

[plucky dew]

which one is born gain, the arcana card?

[violet rampart]

then i think top picks for me personally would be for mana gain

hestia, zeus, poseidon,aphrodite

[still phoenix]

Yeah the first time I used Born Gain my damage was subpar with the torches and at the Chronos fight I had 5 Mana with 200+ Primed lmao

[livid wharf]

Hera's mana gain boon

[still phoenix]

Hera's Gain boon

[still phoenix]

What's Aphros and Posei again? Zeus' is cool in that it spawns relatively quickly and fills up your mana all the way.

[livid wharf]

aphros is weak + slowly gain mana such as 4-6 mana per seconds when you near foe, quite okay for me because free 1 curse type when i use supay, but down side is mana regain slow, need expand mana pool to overcome it.

poseidon is .... idk i don't really like it

[violet rampart]

poseidon creates those water sphere which you can touch to regain mana and aphorodite gives some enemies in room weak if your close tot them you regain mana

[still phoenix]

Haven't gotten that Poseidon one yet sounds clunky lol

[violet rampart]

i like to stack it with multiple weak effect like more damage

[livid wharf]

poseidon's gain changed bro

[violet rampart]

my bad

[livid wharf]

now they changed, 1 god curse = 1 type of curse. because last time demeter got 2 type of curse, one is cold wind another one is freeze, now cannot abuse that (count as 1)

[still phoenix]

Looked it up and his is now like basically free Omega usage every 8 seconds? Am I getting that right?

[violet rampart]

depends on aspect which one your running

[livid wharf]

yes, if my supay style keep draining mana like mad, that is not really fit my style, assuming i got the boon is really bad and cannot go online yet / cannot get the combo i wanted

[merry whale]

yup, even if u have no magick, u can spam omegas while it's active

[violet rampart]

still have to try supay i did unlock it but moros is also strong and fun so not sure if i want to

[livid wharf]

yesterday i was trying doing the Arachne dress achievement, which is need keep the dress until i meet choronus, i have to spam Supay special to fend off the foes, but i don;t have mana to use lol.

[buoyant matrix]

i did it with mel staff

[still phoenix]

Oh that's neat. But 8 seconds is kinda long

[violet rampart]

i do wonder what best weapon is for that acievement i think i wanna try it with hidden aspect of staff

[livid wharf]

supay used to be TOO STRONG, now they nerfed. so right now it feels like rifle , a bit fast hit rate with low damage, that's why i love air quality on that weapon

[merry whale]

ye, so it's more oriented around alternating between omegas and normal moves

[violet rampart]

with nerfs do you think its better or worse then moros?

[merry whale]

i think moros has always been the strongest flames aspect since the patch before 1.0

[livid wharf]

idk , beta taht time i never like torch with any aspect, mostly i just use EOS if no choice.... beuase i never like tossing cotton ball animations lol

[violet rampart]

hmmm ok

[livid wharf]

i am the odd one, AXE aspect i like use default one lol
more like my style i never like to spam omegas if i can, last time my arcana cards deck is no magick at all when Selene boon was weak and useless that time

[wet crater]

||why did chronos not recognise hecete? They're both titans to my understanding||

[violet rampart]

speaking of that i still need to use 2 diffirent weapons for ||surface|| run for the ||minor prophecy||

need to do axe and coat which aspect would your reccomend?

[livid wharf]

same as superman and clark kent is different, hecate i just keep looking her abs (also she is masked)

[nocturne robin]

what do you rate the hades 2 soundtrack out of 10?

[livid wharf]

hidden aspect included?

[violet rampart]

got them all unlocked so yes go ahead

[warm sun]

What to do after I get gigaros

[violet rampart]

||incantation and pierce it though the lords of monsters skull||

[warm sun]

Like I js got it so what do I do with it

[violet rampart]

also || before and after that sentence

[warm sun]

It says I need entropy

[cosmic swift]

Spoilers homeboy

[warm sun]

For the incantation

[violet rampart]

||multiple surface runs gives you a incantation for it at some point||

[warm sun]

I’m asking for help why would I care…

[violet rampart]

you get that by ||killing surface boss after doing incanation||

[cosmic swift]

You should care because people aren't that far yet. Be kind to those who can't no life

[livid wharf]

AXE default gives me extra life and power, i usually pair with demeter+pink lady+poseidon, with zeus too if can. so it is a HP tank (more HP more damage) style... price is you hit slower pace with very wide aoe.

but other people like axe thanatos because critical but the key is you cannot take any damage. high risk high reward.

Nergal got life leech mechanic also got some praises as well. you just rush B

[warm sun]

Ohh I thought u talking about me getting spoiled mb

[wet crater]

Default axe + frinos is alr 200hp if you're struggling to live

[violet rampart]

i feel negral gonna need lot of upgrades to be good

[livid wharf]

channel description stated spoiler any V1.0 stuff?

[violet rampart]

anyway how about coat?

[cosmic swift]

Sorry if I seemed rude.

[prisma mountain]

Who even uses axe thanatos for the crit lol we use it for the attack speed

[warm sun]

Yeah, I didn’t see

[wet crater]

I use it cuz it looks cool

Why wouldn't you play a sick ass scythe

[livid wharf]

idk , compare with default fist from H1, the aspect of mel seems does not hit that fast.

i kind of prefer Aspect of Selene because you got a fixed HEX which is moon beam, you need pair with ARES for godsent boon

2nd one maybe Nyx aspect...

[violet rampart]

might try that

im not sure how i feel about coat hidden and havent touched nyx much either think selene is indeed pretty fun

[livid wharf]

that one need use omega special then need quicky run into bomb radius like the old rifle bomb ...i forget which aspect. just to gain extra damage

like the Staff, the anubis i tried, i understand people say it is good but my style is not fitting it lol. i don't like anubis staff either

[violet rampart]

i like anubis staff if fun though tend to go for normal attack not omega speical im still not sure what i like better normal or omega

[still phoenix]

After getting the || Word of Greater Girth buff from Circe ||, does Melinoe have a deeper voice? I'm kinda just noticing it right now

[livid wharf]

the dagger Morrigan is good, can just spam attack too with Apollo also can do decent damage

[violet rampart]

yeah chances voice

[livid wharf]

yes, also chikmunk voice if she shrinked

[still phoenix]

That's neat lol

[deft pond]

Hades 1 had 21000 lines of dialogue. Does the sequel have more or less

[livid wharf]

it is like H1 Arthur sword, i don't like because too slow pace, H1 i remember the cast build sword is my favourite...

[warm sun]

How to do the thingy where it covers the text

[livid wharf]

||spoiler|| tyype the straight line thingy x2 on beginning and end of the path

[still phoenix]

Use two lines || at the beginning and at the end of your spoiler

[warm sun]

|| if I get the dream vapor from Medea the 2nd time, is that when Hypnos fully wakes up? ||

[violet rampart]

if you want fast get hestia attack and zeus spec is fast enough

[slim pike]

Try it and find out

[livid wharf]

huh hestia on Hades 1?

[violet rampart]

no hades 2 aspect of anubis get hestia attack and zeus special

[hollow rivet]

I'm just now realizing that the Oceanus music tells you which song the Sirens will be playing that night

the attention to detail I stg-

[violet rampart]

just normal attack for field then spawm normal special until field expires

[livid wharf]

yeah i think i tried before but i keep spamming attack so the zone does not optimized, muscle memory from other weapons lol.... i'd rather use Momus or Default staff.

[hybrid lintel]

Any1 else cant see the percentages on steam achievements ?

[warm sun]

Is || arterial spray || the best duo on a || pan daggers || build

[violet rampart]

now if you want something really fast just get skull aspect of medea or as i like to call it vow of rivals deleter

[slim pike]

Arterial spray ain't that good tbh

25% more splashes isn't the biggest dps gain

[warm sun]

But on that build ur using the omega special and you want Poseidon on the special

[deft pond]

Good question. Theres definitely achievements. . It’s only a smaller indie game so I don’t know if it features achievement progress though That sort of stuff is manly found in bigger games.

[violet rampart]

recently found something funny there is this boon that gives extra health based on mana very fun i you get the boon that every room gives you +5 mana from the poison witch

[slim pike]

Yeah but you could probably just get more out of something else. Even slippery slope would be more

[warm sun]

I’m talking abt duo boons

[slim pike]

I know, but the point stands

[warm sun]

Then what would be a better duo

For that build

[slim pike]

Scalding vapour with hestia cast probably

[livid wharf]

duo boon i like fronzen foes can get zapped from zeus in same time, but usually i'd add more froth from poseidon duo with zeus to get more damage....

[slim pike]

Killer current with lightning lance maybe

Particularly if you use heaven strike

[sinful mulch]

Is there a particular trigger to get Poseidon's "prove yourself with the rod of fishing" requirement? I've done all available prophecies, captured 1 of all fish, and I even had the unique scenario where you fish while his boon is present, have no idea what I could still be missing.

[slim pike]

Seismic servo benefits flood gain to keep the dagger spam going

[violet rampart]

Get most if his hearts

[woeful isle]

Can time not be stopped?

[warm sun]

How to get || house soot ||

[sinful mulch]

I have all his hearts, the last heart is locked by that aforementioned requirement.

[violet rampart]

And you didnt the prophecy next time you got his boon?

[sinful mulch]

I already did his prophecy ages ago, I'm trying to get the "trust deepened" trigger which says I need to prove myself with the rod of fishing

[violet rampart]

Weird

I just completed it in list claimed reward and it unlocked next boon

[olive cedar]

how do you unlock|| hidden aspects, the only one i got is the aspect of nergal and i got that by accident||

[livid wharf]

just play teh game until ||the npc gives you one||

[warm sun]

What npc

[violet rampart]

Get non mell aspect to max lv and unlock all aspects for weapon

[olive cedar]

oki doki ty

[violet rampart]

When you get words unlock weapon wont ger new ones until you do also 1 per run includes return to crossroads

[knotty moon]

In the quest for the fates, do I contact hermes on surface or underworld?

[deft pond]

I do not understand the hype for this game. It’s being advertised like it’s this block buster title but it’s just a smaller indie game. I’ll need to check to see what all the fuss is about but there’s a million indie games out there

[buoyant swallow]

ok

[violet rampart]

In its defence also 100s aaa games with most having not best track records as of late

Also you get full game and dont need to buy season pass for 29,99 at launch on top of it

[halcyon loom]

play and see dawg. play h1 too

[prisma monolith]

Dad

[violet rampart]

I do wonder if we should reccomend 1 or 2 to new players now

[warm sun]

Ohhh the || prisoner of time ||

[prisma monolith]

Eh, is that his title? Don't know

[warm sun]

It’s what it says in game

[halcyon loom]

u cant follow the lore without playing h1. plus its better to train with easier foes in h1

[prisma monolith]

I wouldn't, not necessary

[vapid bough]

um do we meet zagreus physically? just yes or no(||not after beating chronos||)

[prisma monolith]

I do recommend hades 1 as a game, but not needed to play hades 2

[violet rampart]

Not sure i think levels harder in 1 Elysium especially

[prisma monolith]

||Yes||

[halcyon loom]

unlock sheild= easy game

[vapid bough]

niiice

[violet rampart]

Hades 2 has aspect medea

[warm sun]

He said || not after chronos ||

[deft pond]

I dunno man. Maybe when it’s on sale. I prefer to play bigger games, I find these smaller indie titles to be almost like arcade machines at the fair. Fun for a small amount of time.

[halcyon loom]

i tried AAA games and i disliked most of them lmao. they are just microtransactions, better games were Detroit become a human and other story stuff. most of AAA games now are bad and focus on graphics more than qualitty

[signal basalt]

I don't know what to say except this is the most childish thing I've heard today... "i OnLy pLaY GaMe iF It cOsT 200 MilLiOn tO MaKe, i Am vErY SmArT"

[halcyon loom]

calm down man. u shouldnt judge, he has his likings

[signal basalt]

I hate chess because it lacks replayability and microtransactions

[deft pond]

Calm down, it’ll be alright.

Indie games are typically much smaller in scope and production values and so they don’t keep me invested that’s all. It’s no disrespect.

[woeful isle]

So what if someone has different tastes?

[violet rampart]

Indies gave is cuphead hollow Knight shovel Knight and well Hades enoug games with lot of content

[halcyon loom]

i used to not like indie games until i tried hades 1 tbh. like i didnt play any indie games until h1 opened the world for me. triple A games looked bad to me after that because of how less they focus on players and quality

[plucky dew]

dude came here just to start drama and ppl fall for it

[mystic cypress]

A waste of my time, would rather be chilling with Chronos

[olive cedar]

is hera good

[halcyon loom]

take him into a salt bath

[olive cedar]

she feels a little below average

[woeful isle]

very good with high damage weapons

[halcyon loom]

S tier

[mystic cypress]

It always depends on what aspect and dedalus' upgrades

[dense yacht]

You don't become Queen of the Gods by not being good.

[signal basalt]

But you're basing taste on production value when it doesn't perfectly correlate to game enjoyment. Loving triple A games is fine, you appreciate the expanse of the world etc but it's such a gated perspective especially in today's slop world. Your assassin's creed, call of duty, whatever big name hardly guarantees good gameplay and enjoyment

[olive cedar]

oop ok, whats a good weapon to use with her then

[violet rampart]

I kinda wonder how f hades 2has a resource manager like Hades 1

[mystic cypress]

Moonstone Axe is awesome with her

[serene stone]

Didn't think I could dislike Eris any more, but her making fun of Artemis and Mel's song really makes me wish we could ban her form the crossroads...

[olive cedar]

eris is kinda slay

[prisma monolith]

Then do that

Keep playing till he gives it to you

[mystic cypress]

I despised Eris until Olympic Update gave her more depth

And her ||fight was properly balanced||

[dense yacht]

Putting aside that "go into an indie game server to tell them you don't like indie games" is blatant bait, thinking of games in terms of production value screams "12yo who only plays serious games".

[deft pond]

I don’t know how much content there is in this game I’ve never played it. But considering the price and the small team I can’t imagine it’s huge amounts.

[olive cedar]

whats a good god for descura

[violet rampart]

I like her on later hearts also dialogue about ||Rail with how of rivals||

[woeful isle]

I'm 60 hours deep and still haven't finished it!

[signal basalt]

Yeah exactly, so I called it childish and people start telling me to calm down? maybe I used some exclamation marks and profanities somewhere that I didn't see

[violet rampart]

100 hours in Early Access here

[still phoenix]

Dude it's a roguelike, replayability and build diversity is what counts here. The voice acting and story are all bonuses instead.

[mystic cypress]

Haven't reached them yet. Ain't gonna lie, I always forget to give anyone at crossroads gifts

[dense yacht]

Profanities? Those are allowed here? Or are we including "blood and darkness" or "blasted" all of a sudden? 😛

[serene stone]

It's a very deep rogue... you have like 200 hours worth of content until you are maybe "finished", if you're really good.

[smoky rover]

Does anyone know?

[serene stone]

Every single run, if fast, is about 20-30 mins. And you need a looooooooot of runs.

[mystic cypress]

I'd 181 hours in H1 until I finally reached its final event

[dire sand]

Try playing it

[mystic cypress]

2 is going leagues past that threshold

[violet rampart]

Not even to the great commander

[mystic cypress]

Besides him. Dude's right at the exit. Impossible to miss him

[plucky dew]

I always forget the gods, dont even have half their keepsakes xD

[violet rampart]

He shares his Wisdom

[violet rampart]

Made that mistake in 1 especially Aphrodite quest so have been giving plenty in 2

[signal basalt]

In Charon shops at random

[plucky dew]

I played 1 but its been so long i only vaguely remember the stuff i did there

[violet rampart]

Long story short need to get lot of relationships to max do multiple events after and it takes ages for that dialogue to trigger

[plucky dew]

I have like 30 nectar def need to gift more too

[violet rampart]

Get keepsakes atleast

[plucky dew]

I try, but whenever i think of it its for a person i alrdy gifted

[violet rampart]

Make sure you have moros atleast i like that one if you run defiance not strength

And of course every god

[pure cradle]

Does anybody know how to get the Fair Fight achievement (win 1k gold in a fight with nemesis)? I don't think enough enemies spawn for you to win it in one go, but I'm p sure I've spent enough times fighting her to earn it cumulatively in EA, yet I don't have the cheevo. It's the only one I don't have where I'm not sure why I don't have it.

[plucky dew]

I have all the camp ppl and about half the gods

[violet rampart]

i think odysyseus and dora are also good to level

[lucid bronze]

you’ll probably just have to earn it again

cumulatively

[old hemlock]

whats yalls favorite attack/special/cast to use on momus? I've won around once with it but I havent really found a good synergy with this aspect tbh

[gusty plinth]

i remember getting the achievement when i killed all the enemies in the room and she got zero? tho i definitely did not get 1000 gold in that room so it's prolly cumulative

[violet rampart]

not sure been ages since i used momus think fell of comapred to circe and Anubis

[gusty plinth]

i put hera on the attack and ares on the special i really just want easy origination

cast i put apollo

[lucid bronze]

heph and poseidon have really good synergy with the cast (get geyser spout for poseidon)

heph legendary is good

Apollo and Hera are best for attack

don’t build around ospecial if you want to do that play mel or anubis

it’s ok secondary damage but build around the oattack or ocast

[violet rampart]

i vote anubis

[lucid bronze]

hostile environment builds are fun too

[gusty plinth]

all the staff aspects are really strong i feel

[lucid bronze]

slightly better than on circe

staff is the best designed weapon all 4 feel at least decent

[verbal rampart]

I just restarted both Hades 1 and 2 from the beginning and...is that me, or Hades 2 is easier than Hades 1?

[gusty plinth]

blades used to be my fav and i hated the staff when i was JUST starting out early access cuz i just came off of hades 1 and i wasnt used to using the omega moves but now that the full game is out i think all of the blade aspects minus morrigan are a little .. ehh

i just pray for trick knives on those 3

[lucid bronze]

pan WAS good

[late steeple]

I would have to replay through the game again, but I have been feeling its been a bit too easy to make "melt everything" builds compared to H1

[lucid bronze]

artemis at least encourages oattack builds even if it’s kinda mid

[violet rampart]

Pan was fun before nerves

[lucid bronze]

mel is a trick knives merchant
morrigan is the most fun weapon in the game

[signal basalt]

Perhaps, h2 rivals is much harder

[gusty plinth]

morrigan my absolute beloved

[agile rose]

hi, i know the game is out of EA and there won't be further major update (plus that the "feedback" channel is closed), but i still like to give a humble suggestion:

when equipping the keepsake ||Chronos's Time Piece|| and go into a double boons room (the room where there are 2 boons from 2 gods, pick one, fight mob w/ god's aid, then pick another). if i choose to ||purge a boon before the fight||, the god who left unpicked shouldn't be "displeased"... ||maybe the one who gotta be displeased is the one who got purged instead||..... this should add element of surprise lol

[upper rover]

Am I the only one who thinks Artemis is the most attractive goddess? Her design is peak

[violet rampart]

Rivals lot harder

[plush sierra]

I don’t get “Fates Whim” how does it work?

[dire sand]

#h2-feedback still exists

[violet rampart]

Dont wanna imagine last rank of it

[signal basalt]

Don't take a god keepsake or use reroll arcana

[dire sand]

Or is it closed

[rough horizon]

It's closed

[dire sand]

Understandable have a nice day

[late steeple]

Oh yeah, I keep losing to the vow of rivals 😭. But everything in between them feels trivial

[smoky rover]

Any? or midshops only?

[plush sierra]

So the keepsake won’t work if i take any other boons?

[signal basalt]

I would wager only midshops because the reward is for pre-boss shops

[gusty plinth]

besides rivals hades 2 early game is also harder i think what with eris. i recently booted up hades 1 to do a fresh file run and got all the way to hades

[smoky rover]

No. Just don't use keepsakes like Gorgon Amulet, or Barley Sheaf. Boons are fine to take

[signal basalt]

No you can take boons, you just can't put on a god keepsake to force it

[lucid bronze]

do selene and athena count for this?

[smoky rover]

Athena does. I didn't try Selene

[signal basalt]

Hmmmm, that I do not know. Good question

[agile rose]

existing effect still in effect, e.g., ||Hades's boon and +3 lvls are still there, but new boons won't have +3 lvls||

[signal basalt]

Yeah I can see one making a really good build in the first 2 regions and then forcing a god in the 3rd for a legendary or duo

[plush sierra]

Ahh gotcha, thanks everyone

[bleak ermine]

Is anyone here knows how to unlock last heart with Circe ?
(Already ended the epilogue, and 100% of achievements) but she’s the only one character remaining which I can’t end the relationship with, the last doesn’t unlock

I’ve been running surface runs since yesterday to try it out it’s starting to be a bit frustrating

[prisma monolith]

What does the codex say?

[bleak ermine]

She has to be convinced of arcana mastery

[prisma monolith]

Have you escaped with all arcana?

[hidden nimbus]

I find myself struggling with || rivals Scylla || anyone got any tips?

[bleak ermine]

Yep since EA already

[prisma monolith]

Is everything upgraded?

[bleak ermine]

Yeah

[prisma monolith]

You sure you escaped with judgement?

[balmy creek]

yo how do you get weapon aspects? I played the beta like a year ago and don't remember how to anymore

[bleak ermine]

I am 100% I completed the prophecy during early access

[prisma monolith]

Then she hates you bro, I'm sorry

[hidden nimbus]

There’s an incantation you eventually unlock

[bleak ermine]

Nice glad to hear that

[prisma monolith]

👍

[balmy creek]

do I have to beat hecate with the 4 starting weapons?

[hidden nimbus]

Uhhh I don’t remember, I just remember it eventually shows up

[balmy creek]

thanks I'll just keep playing the game I guess

[twilit onyx]

Rival Hecate is ROUGH, i got her but damn

[twin rivet]

I wish they'd have buffed the Unseen and Excellence Arcana for 1.0, because 2 out of the 4 five grasp cards sucking is kinda lame

[hasty ocean]

imo it's fine for some cards to be better than others, and those two have situational uses (or are good filler for Judgment/Crystal Pig) especially now with the ||Fates' Whim|| keepsakes being a thing

[twin rivet]

Yeah, but they're so bad that it's almost always not worth losing out on 5 grasp

[hasty ocean]

totally, but being smart enough to realize that and unlocking access to superior cards is part of learning and progressing through the game

[atomic ibex]

is that (end game content) ||the only postgame there is the explanation of why you could continue playing, hipnos and oddiseus quitting the crossroads,zagreus battle and finding the fates? because feels a little bland compared to hades I||

[slim fjord]

just a thought

i wish hades 1 & 2 will be available on the app store, while not being bound by a netflix membership

i might be staying in an eu country, so i prolly can't play my emulator games from delta
but i do have some casual games like castlevania SotN and forgotton anne

[prisma monolith]

You continue playing until you can ||undo the damages done (aka never so yeah)||

[atomic ibex]

should i get hades 1? i used to play via steam family but with the rework i lost the shared libraries and tho played and beated it i never got to || bring mother back||

[prisma monolith]

It is a great game, yes, i recommend it

[atomic ibex]

i might miss my omega moves tho i welcome back my trowing crystal thing ||definetly i wasn't picking howling soul no matter what||

[thorn talon]

||First time Seeing Zag in Hades 2 and he's arguing with his hair I love it||

[robust basin]

Buried treasure doesn't affect the money you find in chests and in vases right? As opposed to quick buck?

[atomic ibex]

||the moment i notice Zag asking for another way to not kill Chronos i started sweating altho one way or the other the timeline is screwed||

[vapid bough]

vow of rivals strife is easier?

[robust basin]

Not really, but the ||arena is smaller.||

[vapid bough]

she doesn't shoot her multiple sniper any more nor her shotgun

[prisma monolith]

I do find vor eris significantly easier

[atomic ibex]

kinda ||i dont know hot to avoid the light things she fires but the lazers are easy||

[vapid bough]

pretty much the only dangerous moves she had

[nimble inlet]

In troubled times, when the hordes beat at the gate

[robust basin]

They are a problem the first runs you attempt but after a while the sniper rifle isn't really a problem anymore

[vapid bough]

ye ye , but those are the only two moves that could hit me

[robust basin]

Also... #ForTheGloryOfMankind

[atomic ibex]

|| vow of rivals Cerberus sucks all my 4 death defiance on 2nd phase what im exactly suposed to do||

[nimble inlet]

Carrot

[buoyant elbow]

I agree, she does seem easier to me

[minor stirrup]

I know that doing a ||bath/hot spring event|| advances time, but does anyone know if it rotates the Grave Thirst to a new weapon?

[slim pike]

You can use your cast to stop him rampaging around

[prisma monolith]

Lord Randle

[nimble inlet]

That’s me

[atomic ibex]

its my only chance because the ||dog explosions from the ground have some questionable hitbox after their animation||

[nimble inlet]

The scratchy scratchy has some questionable hit box

[slim pike]

Dunno what to say other than dodge better. Get more dps

[atomic ibex]

Already have some decent combos yet seems it's more for wave clear rather than clashing with bosses

[slim pike]

You'll manage it

[atomic ibex]

I already beated all the bosses with the vow rivals , it's just ||Cerberus ruining my consistency||

[slim pike]

Prom and herac are much harder

Dunno why you're having problems here

[dry moon]

did they nerf Duo boons, I literally cant get duo boons anymore..... I have the required boons, spam rolling and literally cant get duo boons for the last 15 runs

[atomic ibex]

Is just Prometheus with an annoying spinning huge hitbox but not as much deal as the || Typhon's miniboss with the breakable walls||

[olive cedar]

whats a good god for aspect of moros

[deft pond]

Okay okay this is fair. Maybe I spoke too soon. Perhaps it’s not a small game after all. I just see indie title and think small game because i heard it’s also a very tiny team.

[signal basalt]

Hera

Can do a fine line build or an attack and special with a big percentages so when they explode connecting they hit big

[olive cedar]

whats fine line

[dusky mountain]

moros doesnt need anything tbh

zeus probably works well too

[signal basalt]

A hera boon that procs damage on your omegas

[olive cedar]

ooh ok

[minor stirrup]

Quoting Lee Ream Snyder's incredible guide here: 'Start with your favorite (or whoever you want to lock in) between Hera, Zeus, Poseidon, or Ares on gain. Put your favorite percentage boost on attack and get Origination up between your special and cast. Some solid attack/special combos are Aphrodite/Poseidon, Demeter/Zeus, or Ares/Apollo all with duos worth chasing. Hera attack and Zeus special is probably the best overall combination. Apollo is also fun on attack for gigantic ghostplosions.'

[atomic ibex]

|| I'm the only one finding the ank being almost absolute garbage tho the concept is so good?||

[dusky mountain]

yes

it's one of the strongest aspects in the game easily

[signal basalt]

Yeah, try a few more combos with it. can either put a tick on attack (hestia/poseidon) or do Omega special run with big % special

[atomic ibex]

It's maxed out yet I struggle with bosses

[olive cedar]

whoopsies Oh ok thank you!!

[dusky mountain]

try hestia or poseidon attack, or even apollo also kinda works

[deft pond]

I mean this game is getting perfect scores on nearly every outlet I find, and the first game I heard won over 40 game of the year awards.

I suppose that doesn’t happen if you’re just a small game

[dusky mountain]

then you can also go for beach ball, and get the hammer that buffs your shades damage --> pop field, run around for shades which automatically make beach ball aswell --> insane dps

[atomic ibex]

I think the problem was using Hera for main attack, I don't see what could fit for special

[signal basalt]

I see you are revising your opinion, good open mind

[dusky mountain]

tbh you dont need to use special for damage, use it to pull them in your Attack and mostly try to get a curse on it to proc origination easier

[signal basalt]

The Omega specials on the ankh smack though, few viable builds there

[deft pond]

100%. I haven’t played so I can’t judge yet. But I’m not about to argue with the majority here. I’m definitely not of the mind that this is just another indie title, let alone a small one. This game is a big deal.

[signal basalt]

lmao

[dusky mountain]

im 120 hours in and still havent even done everything, theres a good 10-20 hours left id guess

[atomic ibex]

All I know is Howling soul my beloved

[robust basin]

So officially the Aromatic Phial ||doesn't work on Hades' boons. I don't like it.
They should have said that the Phial works only on Olympian boons then||

[signal basalt]

Can you still use phial on Hermes boons? think they tried to change it

[robust basin]

No that works

So many quick bucks rarified!😻

[deft pond]

You not a fan?

[thorn talon]

Can you guys give me a Moros Build? I don't remember how to use it anymire it's been a while

[pallid cradle]

... I'm like 95% sure ||Hades boons don't have rarity. At least the ones he gives you in Tartarus currently. Idk it changes postgame||

[robust basin]

There is #h2-builds-and-combat for you

[robust basin]

Spoiler alert ||it doesn't||

[atomic ibex]

Is it better an arcana build with all the 30 points spent or a Judgment build with the pig keepsake

[dusky mountain]

slap hestia on either attack or special and your good

[robust basin]

Unless ||post post game is different||

[thorn talon]

Oh yeah I keep forgetting

[signal basalt]

The emphasis and switch around is just funny, i was the one who called you childish earlier

[pallid cradle]

So why would you expect the Phial to hit them at that point? It can't hit anything you get from Medea either.

[thorn talon]

Thanks

[atomic ibex]

|| I thought the red skulls were the pact of punishment for s unknown route but nah it's just the fear you cleared up the surface||

[robust basin]

You and me together buddy... Such a useful channel...😢

[deft pond]

lol you’ll be calling me an adult before the sun goes down

[atomic ibex]

What do you mean someone completed a run in 9 minutes when it takes me 20 min on a perfect run

[pallid cradle]

You have a Diablo 2 pfp, I'm willing to call you Grandpa

[robust basin]

But yeah this confirms it...

[robust basin]

I wanted to make a joke about his pfp too, but yours is so much better

[primal wind]

The achievements on my Steam appear to have the same really low completion rates (0.1% or even 0), wonder if it appears the same for others

[robust basin]

Yes it's the same for all. It just means a lot of people have the game. Most probably you got all your achievements in EA

[pallid cradle]

I don't think the global completion stats are updating properly. You can't tell me only .1% of 112k players (the concurrent player count that I saw on steam yesterday) have beaten Erebus

[robust basin]

Something is strange...

[pallid cradle]

Like all my other problems, I blame Chronos

[cerulean lake]

The browser version and hovering over the achievements will show tthe real percentage

[primal wind]

On playtracker.net it shows a likely more real %

[robust basin]

So the app is broken?

[violet rampart]

blame time itself

[cerulean lake]

The steam android app also shows the right %

8% have cleared the last surface region...

[robust basin]

30% have cleared Erebus? Seriously?

[tepid wren]

not that strange

a lot of game buyers don't follow through on their buy

[radiant crag]

question about post game: ||how long am i forced to start on zeus||

[tepid wren]

better to think of that 30% as the baseline for the otherachievements

[carmine yarrow]

hey guys! i already left a report in game, but i was just curious if anyone else has had what seems to be a bug with ||chronos phase 2 fight, and not getting the red effects for the indicator of the big AOE instakill move. it was less clear, but it seemed like in another fight with him, the indicator also ended early and i stepped out (or that was my own hallucination)||

[robust basin]

I think steam achievements don't count people who haven't booted the game or something along those lines

[pallid cradle]

I'm pretty sure that's correct. You only become a % when you load the game.

[tepid wren]

that's ggood but it won't get everyone

[pallid cradle]

For the first time that is.

[tepid wren]

the fellows who die in erebus and decide game is not for them

[robust basin]

We are nothing but a % to them...😢

[cerulean lake]

I think 1 week is still a bit too soon to tell, like its too easy to be caught up with other things like irl commitments and whatnot. I think 1 month or so is when we'll see a better picture

[vapid bough]

blades bonus damage is simply flat increase right?

[robust basin]

Good point

[pallid cradle]

Oh the Steam android app at least shows them. Huh, I'm not gonna lie to you. 1.7% on Dressed to Kill is higher than I expected.

[cerulean lake]

Yaaa

[pallid cradle]

I did it on my second run but I had also done it like 3 times in early access.

[primal wind]

I think the other issue is that it should be some form of decreasing rate of % starting from Erebus but it doesn't show. Meaning its likely some form of bug on the Steam library page

[cerulean lake]

I wonder how many people bought EA
I think I recall h2 being popular enough to hit the concurrent player charts in ea but im not sure

[vapid bough]

does purification from selene remove typhon's projectiles?

[robust basin]

Maybe I am just a bad gamer... Or those numbers are all really out of whack

[pallid cradle]

It took until yesterday for us to beat the early access player count, so it was a pretty big deal in early access yes

I think it was like 103k concurrent for the early access period

[olive cedar]

JUST GOT LEVEL 20 HERA ATTACK

[cerulean lake]

1.7% is so high
Considering epilogue achievement is 2.3%

[pallid cradle]

2.3% is first ending. Epilogue is at .2 on my app atm

[cerulean lake]

Yaa but i think the 2 achievements being close still feels surprising

Or maybe its not
If you're hardcore enough for the minimum ~11-15 runs to hit epilogue you're probably serious enough to try and chase down achievememfs

All i know is its too hard for meee it's too hard.. I recklessly run around too much

[pallid cradle]

Idk how many people did what I did but I just loaded my Early Access save because I didn't feel like re-grinding my basically 100% save. It's like 12 runs from that point to see credits.

[cerulean lake]

I did the same lol
Id do fresh save for challenge but i cant wait the 12, realistically 20ish runs to find out ending

[robust basin]

Plot twist: a lot of EA players still haven't booted the game🤣

[vapid bough]

whyyy can't i bathe with seleneeee

[pallid cradle]

Clearing Erebus still being at like 30% is one of the more shockingly funny ones to me.

[cerulean lake]

YO i need a h2 mod that puts the 2 bath cutscene sprites next to each other 😭 i think thatd look so good

[pallid cradle]

You're not worthy of seeing the Moon's full moon. Her total eclipse if you would.

I'm not sorry

[steady estuary]

anyone know what Undo Night does in the menu
I beat Hecate without Arcana and want to restart and just die

[vapid bough]

nooooo

[steady estuary]

Is Undo Night the equivalent to dying

[unreal hare]

No

[vapid bough]

no, just go to mosnters and die to them

[unreal hare]

Undo night makes it that the night didn't happen

[pallid cradle]

It's basically the give up button from Hades 1 if you played. It was actually "give up" until 1.0

I was curious why they changed it.

[vapid bough]

hecateee, you keep extending your hearts, how many moore nectars must i give you

[nova oar]

How far into the game are you?

[upper rover]

Dionysus' model in Hades II 💀

[vapid bough]

beat chronos some times and driven typhon twice(by that i meant zeus helped me, not killed)

[pallid cradle]

Feeling a little inadequate?

[late steeple]

To make it more clear it keeps the same seed, I think

[olive cedar]

whats a good god for the aspect of ||morrigan||

[olive cedar]

delta roon

[late steeple]

Risk Unrelated.....

[pallid cradle]

Well... I wish I was speedrunning because I'm never beating that first half of Erebus.

Room 1 epic Zeus special, the rare room 2 Apollo for dash/sprint, midshop gives me light smite, and Ares midboss... Man I hate this game.

[signal basalt]

Apollo (base % and legendary is very) or Aphro, but honestly the weapon has such high base you can kinda use anything else

[patent smelt]

did supergiant say anything about adding anything more / making balance changes? or basically anything outside of only bug fixes from 1.0 onwards?

[vapid bough]

wtf undo night keep the randomizing part???

[patent smelt]

yes, its a seed

[cerulean lake]

I found aphro cast quite nice for that aspect, makes it easier to land omegas

Hera too, i thiiink hitch should share the bonus damage? But im not sure because hitch is already goated lol

[vapid bough]

how do i get around it?

[sage tusk]

Hey guys did you get the aracne dress achievement and the one to kill a witch in the sheep form? Bc I did both and didn’t get it

[robust basin]

There are an infinite amount of unanswered questions in this game...😭

[cerulean lake]

For example, why cant i romance apollo?

[crude dragon]

Hera or Apollo

You can spread the Triad damage via Hitch, and the larger size helps hit more enemies for the Triad

Hestia and Poseidon also work nicely due to the multi-hit

[hallow vault]

Best Art direction this Year will be crazy

Expedition 33 Skong and Hades 2 all have 10/10 art directions

[robust basin]

There's an incantation or you get killed by a monster

[safe falcon]

Has anyone used crossplay? Does it cross update often?

[crude dragon]

Said incantation is well into the late-game, though

[west rune]

anyone know if selling bridal glow removes the upgrade from the heroic boon?

[cerulean lake]

I was surprised by how good aphro cast for triad was, makes hitting multiple enemies w o attack a lot easier

And im getting better at hitting the triad combo lol

[carmine yarrow]

it does not

[cerulean lake]

Hm gosh
My personal pick might be E33 but i dunno if id call it a winner in my book even if its excellent.

[nova oar]

You have a long way to go then

[patent smelt]

no idea, maybe start a different run (like a chaos trial or a different area (top/bottom)

[nova oar]

You have to die

[crude dragon]

It won't, but if Bridal is Common and gets rarified, the linked boon will get extra levels

Also, I think it's still the case that Bridal can't be re-acquired if you sell it

[spark nest]

Do keepsakes get inactivated every region? Like can I keep using the Artemis keepsake throughout the entire night?

[vapid bough]

holy sh*ti just looked hephastus's boons and saw the +1 to aspec and thought i want it and went to his reward room, not only was it a free rewards i got the legendary +1 xD

[south surge]

main story spoilers: ||ive done 5 chronos and 2 typhon but dont have gigaros, guessing i need to do a 6th chronos for gigaros now or do i need to do more typhon first||

[signal basalt]

Who is the one who rebels against the gods in the fates quest? ||Zag?||

[cerulean lake]

Former

[signal basalt]

It depends, Artemis' specifically is only for 1 region I believe

[cerulean lake]

Most specifically say the deact condition
I cant remember if dio is 1 region or per region

[spark nest]

Oh is there any way I could find out in game what works and what doesn't? Does knuckle bones work?

[cerulean lake]

Pretty much every keepsake will stay active until You use its ability

Eg god boons only deac once youve rarified something (but the next boon is that god only occurs once), knuckle bones once you use it etc

[thorny adder]

Knuckle bones still give damage reduction for bosses btw. It’s just the damage burst that gets used up

[spark nest]

Ah okay thank youu!

[signal basalt]

the 10% damage reduction yes, but the damage chunk no

[cerulean lake]

Oh oops, mixed it up with skelly

[signal basalt]

Any knowers here?

[cerulean lake]

I feel like i should know but i can't remember / i have 1 guess and im not sure its right

[thorny adder]

Well, according to actual mythology (not the game), who is the most likely?

[waxen lake]

Anybody have the "Chaos in Hell" achievement?

[thorny adder]

Certainly not Chronos. Definitely not any of the Olympians. Also none of the witches really count, so who is left?

[novel beacon]

do you have to talk to whoever gives you the hidden aspect with their aspect at some point to get the dialogue to trigger?

[waxen lake]

Yup

I recommend you to have the weapon that u want to upgrade and then talk to that character

[haughty patrol]

can somone explain blitz damage

[serene stone]

Is gravethirst buggy? Or just... entirely random with absolutely no rhyme or reason? It keeps switching between Axe and Skull, my two least favorite weapons, neglecting literally every of the four other weapons. xD

[haughty patrol]

so blitz damage is applied flatly

[carmine yarrow]

blitz is basically a debuff. after the enemy has it, deal 120 damage to them, and the blitz damage procs

[haughty patrol]

so the lightning is the blitz damage

[carmine yarrow]

yep

[haughty patrol]

ok thanks

[signal basalt]

So ideally you want something that can proc it and reapply it fast

[signal basalt]

Hmmmmmmmm

Not buggy, just completely random. Funny thing about completely random is that even if it is unlikely, if it happens it happens, so our perception of “random” is really just skewed to “evenly distributed”

hi did you get an answer for this or does anyone know? the question was did they fix the interaction with aphro's gain, island getaway, and her legendary?

[pseudo wing]

did anyone else started to have visual issues (invisible attacks, e. g. the slamming waves typhoon and cyclope does) and crashes (i already had a second crash during typhon fight, 6th in total) after v1.0? my drivers are all updated too, idk how to fix this :' ( (not a gpu crash)

[fleet stirrup]

How long is the epilogue?

is it just me or steam? all of the achievements is still 0.0%

[fleet stirrup]

just u

[hearty idol]

[midnight coral]

it was like that for a few days but eventually my steam updated. itll eventually catch up probably

[plucky dew]

looks like that for me too

[nova oar]

Check the store page achievements

It gives accurate percentages

[hearty idol]

i see all right then good to know!

[night abyss]

Surprised they didn't change Nemesis' challenge to total damage done instead of enemies killed

Since she can just steal your kills

[thorny adder]

You can easily kill more enemies than Nem and still deal less damage under that metric, so there’s nit really an easy way to do it

For example… fish rooms, spinning laser creatures, etc. all have really low health

[dense river]

Howdy! Can we ever dream about Melinoe different outfits like pets?

[midnight coral]

idk i think ive lost to nemisis like once, if anything i see her as a free 100 gold

[thorny adder]

True. Nem is a struggle early game when you don’t have rng manipulation and arcana, but after that she’s a massive pushover

[chrome plaza]

so random question - should i save my stardust for anything? or is it just "spend on making biscuits"

[midnight coral]

i forgot about people who just started (lmao EA brainrot) but yea makes sense that shes way harder before arcana cards and such

[midnight coral]

you get enough from chaos trials that you can turn a lot into biscuts for pets and then later i turned it into ambrosia after i rolled credits

[robust basin]

THEY CAPPED HAEPHESTUS' POMMABILITY???????

EA truly ruined our lives...😭 We lost so much...

[serene stone]

I mean, not sure how "random" I think it is that 27 times in a row it is either axe or skull (yup, I counted)

[midnight coral]

rip to shameless attitude, the numbers were so much higher

[cerulean lake]

Theres definitely a few important stuff you wanna save for namely ||npc questlines||

I know this because i spent it all on biscuits and im regretting it now

[ivory apex]

Yeah I was sad to see it capped at 2 seconds during my run yesterday

[thorny adder]

It was always capped to 2 seconds iirc post rework (so around warsong?)

[ivory apex]

I think they changed it somehow recently because heroic attack boon caps at level 4

I feel like it was way higher before

[thorny adder]

However, there’s a duo with Poseidon that brings it down to like 1.3 seconds

[minor stirrup]

Can you romance everybody in a single playthrough or does trying that come with consequences?

[gusty crane]

Hello! Does somebody want to help a poor student get the game on Steam? After paying for my English exam I'm almost broke. Thanks in advance!
