you're right, I confused the two. regardless, the one that increases missile speed wouldn't let me fire more than one set of missiles at a time

lime bay
#

aye.

terse bear
#

I had both of those hammers on my run

surreal hazel
#

Furious rockets is... yeah. Needs some bonus damage somewhere

fallen iris
#

The BONK build is real

surreal hazel
#

Or increased lockon width or depth

#

Something

terse bear
#

yeah...

lament spoke
#

bonk build...

terse bear
#

lock on width would be pretty cool actually

lament spoke
#

is hell splitter like. the equivalent of whichever hammer made the sword just do a big chop

surreal hazel
#

It's some nice qol stuff, and you can spam specials while punching more freely

surreal hazel
#

(That's a yes)

lament spoke
#

interesting

#

i wasn't much a fan of it back then - it made attacks feel pretty slow

surreal hazel
#

Noticably different to use though

surreal hazel
spare kite
#

world splitter was meh

#

tho that's kinda anything that's not double edge so whatever bouldy sword moment

lament spoke
#

i like how. idk a good word for it - tactile daggers feel? like, there's lots of input, lots of movement, it feels fast to play even if you don't technically kill anything faster

lime bay
#

Love me some Hell Splitter shenanigans.

surreal hazel
#

I dislike the skulls because of how much time youre spending not doing stuff

hell splitter fun for than's axe

Pass me more coffee, game go fast

surreal hazel
#

Than is clearly better for bonking

#

yeah more power to 300 base dmg feels kinda less appealing lol

#

Also I reiterate, nova strike on xinth is busted. 75% bigger attacks

#

does anyone have tips for making moros torches feel less like they're just about holding attack for 800 years

#

bird is really fun with the axe btw. I had a run where I got an illegal amount of crits

Axe is only 20% bigger, blades and staff are 40%

you can cast in the middle of your attacks ig

odd moat
#

can someone send me an arcana page for wave strike xinth?

lament spoke
#

sigh

#

i'm gonna try a thaxe run. also try and level fig leaf/gorgon some

#

if fig leaf levels up mid-run do i get another free chamber?

I can throw it at you if you want, but it's a bit of a wacky setup afaik

I have nothing so anything is good, even as a base

I can't seem to send images.

send somewhere else (like a dm or private discord) then right click, copy link
or use imgur/similar sites

#

Ah. There we go.

#

@odd moat I DM'd it to you as well, but here's the build.

#

(Also if others want to scrutinize it now they can lol)

#

what's unseen doin there

high trellis
#

As a First Boon would you guys take Volcanic Flourish or Fixed Gain {Hapthestus Special or Hapthestus -10% dmg}

spare kite
#

neither

well the other choice is Stamp rush

divinity is neat but excellence is overkill

Excellence isnt overkill its just ass 😭

Good boon rarities, damage for all the things, and enough HP and DR to get away with basically face-tanking the boss.

#

5 grasp for 50% more rare boons is so bad

Look, lemme cook.

I've been rocking Poseidon Hestia duo on Mel coat. did i stumble upon the meta?

past salmon
#

idk what mel coat meta is
It works with a lot

lime bay
#

tbh I think it's just coat meta.

#

coat op

silent crow
#

how do you actualy build nyx coat lioke actually

lament spoke
#

got erised with the bonk build :/

hallow glacier
#

just get the card where you can sprint faster and get the mana regen card

#

and focus on getting boons for right click then just charge at a enemy and attack at a distance

#

i would send a picture but i dont have perms

lament spoke
#

you can send it to a private server then copy image link

sick wigeon
#

This is super silly but I don’t understand how to use the nightspawn that’s generated by the black coat. Unsure what it means by splitting my attack and special in two

hallow glacier
#

so basically when you charge into something after fully charging

#

try meleeing and right clicking you can see when you melee you hit twice and when you right click you can see you shoot 2 missles

lament spoke
#

what's your right click mapped to?

hallow glacier
#

special

lament spoke
#

ahha

#

i remapped it to cast and special to clicking the scrollwheel

hallow glacier
#

i cant lmfao that seems too confusing to me

lament spoke
#

i was forgetting to do whichever one wasn't on the mouse lmao

sick wigeon
#

And does that happen every time you do it over the 5 seconds

hallow glacier
#

so when you successfully charge soemthing on the bottom left where you health is you can see a blue orb thats your timer

#

as long as you got mana you can spam it and yes that nightspawn thingy is consistent throughout the 5 seconds it active

rugged moon
#

question. i got lucky so i didnt get to test it. Can bridal glow be sold at a red well?

spare kite
#

yeah

rugged moon
#

nice. thats honestly a pretty huge buff

#

pick it up in erebus at 50 fear when you only have like... 4 total boons? a reroll basicly gurentees you can get rid of it and just get to heroics

#

(by got lucky i mean hestia just deleted it for me, so i still got my heroics)

high trellis
#

I feel like I shouldn't send my whole Run description here but what would you guys use as Olympus Keepsake {Havent Met either new person so neither keepsake there}

amber dagger
#

whats good on selene

high trellis
#

Dark Side Full Moon, +40% dmg and +3% to dodge after use, +10 to guardians and +30% cast dmg, Her keepsake is tier 1

high trellis
#

I dont understand then, ask me the question like im braindead because apparently i am

high trellis
#

Oh like the names of them?

amber dagger
#

like what should i put on attack special ect

high trellis
#

Ok I thought You meant something about my run,,,

amber dagger
hallow glacier
#

just beat chronos with nyx aspect for the coat

#

special build is the play for nyx

silent crow
loud moat
#

Volcanic flourish is great on Coat. Get the cooldown reduced with some poms, pick up the Hammer that fires your Speciall 25% of the time automatically.

Then just throw whatever boon you want on the attack. Run into enemies, attack and throw out CLANG every 3 seconds

#

I gotta say, regardless of weapon, I’m in love with Hephaestus CLANG builds. It’s not necessarily meta but with poms and some support it pops off. It’s always so satisfying.

loud moat
#

Volcanic Strike and Flourish

#

High cooldowns at first, but can be buffed to 2 seconds

#

They also got a brand new animation this patch

amber dagger
#

im stupid i was thinking of hestia boons lol

loud moat
#

Even better with the Hestia Duo. It doubles your CLANGS if you use them right after they come off cooldown.

autumn nymph
loud moat
#

Low cooldown Volcanic Strike is just dopamine injected into me

amber dagger
#

does it proc off the hammer that fires special?

loud moat
#

Yes. For coat you mean? If you have Volcanic Flourish, then it will still proc cause it’s shooting your special

amber dagger
loud moat
#

Always cooldown

#

I had a fun build with Knives and the Volcanic Special last patch. Was so sick. Jumping around attacking with attack then I’d flick out a knife into a group of enemies for a big CLANG.

It can help you punch through armor quickly.

#

I think I had Aphro cast for the pull in.

is a second god boon keepsake just useless on the surface

ive never seen it actually give something

ive taken the adamant shard up so many times and gotten nothing

So, I'm trying to finish up my Testament runs (I'm down to my last), and I have to run 16 heat and win with Staff vs Prometheus, and I just don't play with the staff much. Can anyone give me some boon direction to help me out (post update). I have everything unlocked. I'm not the best player, but I've beat it on 32 heat. Basic boon builds advice?

low copper
#

So I fully understand what interacts with Exhaust Riser or not - anything that says "Attack" only impacts regular punching, whereas anything that has "Attacks" impacts attack, dash-attack, and o-attack?

No Marauder + Dashing Heave is tragic, would've slapped

That's such a strange change. Is it in the patch notes even? I'd f10 if this happened to me

#

Does dash strike even get the Mel aspect attack power?

bleak night
#

It does ye

tall notch
#

Oh so it's also inconsistent now. Might actually be a bug?

spare kite
#

Some sword hammers also didn't work with dash strikes back in h1 so I can see them doing it on purpose

warped harness
#

do i run judgement in overworld or underworld

low copper
#

Extra Dose doesn't seem to work on dash strike either? Or at least the "2x" symbol never appears for me

jovial cove
#

thinking Mel aspect might be the best one for black coat
the movement buff makes positioning a lot easier
and you're not locked out of better hexes like with selene

steel sequoia
#

mel atk is prolly the best, S tier to me

past salmon
jovial cove
#

is it

willow phoenix
#

Yea skyfall owns

jovial cove
#

I feel like I have to do a lot of investment in moon rooms to get skyfall to where it's good

willow phoenix
#

Use selene keepsake, helps a lot. The other hexes are also not that strong without upgrades anyway.

steel sequoia
#

i only care about skyfall, phase shift and howl

#

rest is filler

bleak night
steel sequoia
#

which god is the bad one?

bleak night
#

Hestia kinda mid on it

#

Missiles dont deploy fast enough for scorch to stack, and you want % boosts on your attack since Shield Bash charged to full is heavy damage while Skyfall is pelting your target

#

With Pos you can get missiles, so he's the worst of the 7, aside from early Heph since you dont want his cores

#

Even then, Wave Flourish missiles aren't bad

#

Just that unlike all the others, Pos only has the one boon you actually care about

past salmon

#

Fair

#

I believe in Apollo Attack for shield bashing now

#

It covers a large portion of the screen so it's funny

onyx trench
#

Big bash

#

I could see heroic heph on the coat attack

#

I also just had a run where I got the cooldown to three seconds on the axe

loud moat
#

I just found a bug for the blades combined with Apollos Legendary.

It doubles your omega attacks

If you cast the omega special it’ll double it, but then it also causes you to throw the omega attack AGAIN if you press special right afterwards.

#

So it banks up 1 addition omega attacks you can throw out for free after the first one. Haven’t checked if it’s the same with the attack.

bleak night
#

That's kinda cool actually

tulip sonnet
#

aside from zeus flourish what are some good missile boons

past salmon
loud moat
#

Yea it’s dope. Not overpowered but cool nonetheless. I had Heras Special so it wasn’t super amazing but cool. I wonder how it’d react with Pan aspect though. I had Artemis going.

tulip sonnet
#

poseidon? i never got why uncle poz was a good boon for it but i’ll try it next run!

last cape
#

Speaking of Poseidon, do the extra attacks/rockets from aspect of nyx not get your attack and special boons? I was going to try a Poseidon rocket build but realized that the extra rockets weren't splashing

last cape
#

Without a curse to apply the rockets are pretty whatever ngl and heph flourish was buffed last patch

#

But yeah otherwise I usually try to just go for a curse on them, preferably Demeter or Zeus

tulip sonnet
last cape
#

CD lowered

#

This was the patch before this one I believe

#

Rockets don't have good damage but they're extremely noncommittal, you can move while firing and the animation for shooting them takes almost no time at all, so something like blast you can just throw on an attack build and enjoy at least an extra 400 aoe damage every x seconds for free (as long as you remember to use it)

hazy crater
#

yeah I love heph boons for their ability to work well on pretty much any build as long as you have a spare move you arent using

last cape
#

Other than that, Zeus Poseidon and Demeter are what are usually going on the rockets for me

stone karma
#

purely speculation but what do y'all think the weapon's hidden aspects are gonna be based off of?

#

i am partially expecting the staff to be based off sun wu kong and have a faster rate of normal attacks

willow phoenix
#

Skull and coat can be anything tbh. Maybe Loki daggers? We haven't had a nordic aspect.

#

Some sun god or fire god for torches

actually i would like to see the torches go in a different direction than just fire, maybe be cheeky and have it be electricity and have lightbulbs on the end

Oh, I would absolutely DIE of happiness if we would get hidden aspect of Seth on the daggers

willow phoenix

electricity is for all intents and purposes modern fire

and the weapons can take forms they will have in the future

WAIT, the axe aspect of paul bunyan

Maybe sun instead of fire, just cause it would be hilarious to have apollo complain about it. But also hestia would be good too I guess. I just dont like that shes being portrayed as fire goddess

Oh gods, the arm aspect of bud Spencer lol

Blades could be so many different things

bleak night

Please get rid of Anchors

bold furnace

cuz like it's a fireplace

#

also pele might be a good fit for the torches

rugged moon
#

Cept shes not, she goddess of hearth and home. Apollo is the god of fire. She empodies what the hearth representsas a whole not just the fire burning in it

stone karma
#

but apollo isn't a fire god, he's more so music and prophecy with the sun stuff coming later

#

also this aspect of the conversation can be moved somewhere else

bold furnace
#

Okay, redirecting the convo back to topic. Anyone has a fun build for Medea skulls or Momus wand?

bleak night
#

Nothing like making one mistake and losing 87 HP

willow phoenix
#

Freeze is nice to guarantee the following omega hits too

stone karma
#

for momus i had the cross upgrade on the hammer and like apollo's attacks and it would just keep using the larger area of attack, it was nice

#

set up a special on the other side of the room and it would still hit everything

willow phoenix
#

Casual zeus on special is nice too although might not be optimal lol

bold furnace
#

I did find the heph cast fun on Momus with the cont hammer onslaught, but haven't found any fun boon combos yet

stone karma
#

also anyone who has the black coat, how does it play? i mistook the adamant for glass rock and wasted a run trying to get it

#

maybe to could try something with aphrodite's cast

willow phoenix
#

I really like the coat, feels nice with everything

stone karma
#

i feel like the coat's hidden aspect should have a nautical theme

#

maybe black beard? on account of the full salvo being a naval than and can correspond to the missiles

willow phoenix
#

Blackbeard wielding a nocturnal arms might be a bit much lol. Especially since the coat is supposed to be the ultimate final resort and all

#

Maybe some technology or future related deity, something like the Maitreya from Buddhism? The coat being so futuristic and a buddhist deity might actually fit together lol.

stone karma
#

i'm not familiar with buddhist deities so i'm just gonna trust you on that

Rip a likely sub 11m 50F because fig leaf decided to never proc bouldy

#

damn why would Dionysus do this

past salmon
#

I still think Antler is likely to be better for tart sometimes.

If your timer is really bad a lot of the time it's because your damage is ass. Fig leaf skipping 3 rooms in Tart doesn't help if the other 2 rooms take 2 minutes each and Chronos takes 5

By "Armour" they mean "Trusty Shield", because that boon is, and always has been, so good, like SO GOOD

low bear
#

trusty, mint, stubborn def can all go a long way to making Antler much safer even on high fear

surreal hazel
#

+10-20 free max HP and "Healing" each room, plus a damage cap when the armour breaks? Yes, please, give.

low bear
#

snow queen too

#

but yeah trusty is sooo good, especially back when vow of suffering was a thing lol

surreal hazel
#

Snow queen isn't as good as shield, but hey, they stack just fine

low bear
#

yeah ofc SQ isn't as good

surreal hazel
#

and it preserves effects that require you not to get hit at all

#

Trusty Shield is also how you try to keep your arachne dress

Because scarlet dress is lulzy good if you can keep it

at high fear I just stopped caring about Arachne effect and always went for highest possible armor LOL

Heph boon

surreal hazel
#

Hephestus support boon

#

Every room you get refilled up to 10,15,20,25 armour (based on rarity), primes 20 magicka

#

(To a max of those values, not just added on)

#

basically you enter every room with at worst a one-shot protection, at best a massive longevity bonus

#

Mint Condition is also similarly strong, albeit a bit nerfed in the last update

#

because being able to start every room running face first at everything without a care really speeds up your room clear times

i use the axe with hell splitter for the first time. I saw that I could start the attack, then dash to finish the attack animation next to foes. However, sometimes it does not work like that and the attach animation is simply replaced by a simple dash. Some other times it works as intended. It often changes mid fight. I take vast amounts of damage due to that unpredictable behaviour. Has anyone seen that occuring and it there a way to fix it?

humble wasp
#

It makes it significantly harder to use the axe since you are left so vulnerable all the time. Unless you get a couple good attack speed boons its often a major issue

surreal hazel
#

there's also the sweet spot where you dash cancel juuuust after the axe hits the ground to cut off the recovery

# summer seal Anyone have a suggestion for what 12 fear to run on the surface? Need it for Dua...

start with “free” fear like the banish unpicked options fear, prime magic fear, and to a lesser extent 1 or 2 levels of timer if you’re comfortable with it (if you aren’t i recommend doing casual runs with vow of time to get used to the pressure), then pick whatever fear points look least annoying, just stay away from hordes. i recommend getting used to at least one level of frenzy, as it gives a lot of fear

Fun fact, the Death Arcana Card (15% crit chance on omega moves if different than the last one) counts the Black Coat (Nyx) Nightspawn dash as an Omega Move. An easy way to keep Crit chance up between omegas without needing to pause and use your attack, special or cast.

I actually like staff omega builds but they don't compare to some of the hammers the staff gets for huntress builds

im a persephone/charon fan. staffs are in a bad spot imo, the worst aspect.

I mostly play blades/torches/axe/coat yeah. There's goofy stuff that you can do with the omega moves on low fear but I wouldn't try to do beyond 32 fear with any staff except maybe momus

i think its very safe to play manaless staff in high fear, but in the end you dont use the aspect just lurk hammers.

You can play pretty fast with skull

Than axe feels fast enough

I don't feel like skull is slow at all tbh

surreal hazel
#

if you're using it as a melee weapon, but I personally hate waiting for the bounce on the skulls and using the wimpy special in the meantime

Skull feels very movement based
With how the special works
You just spam skull attacks and then chase after them with special
You are always moving

Wonder if it's possible to have a passive Prometheus fight by using Medea's curse that removes 15% per DD. I mean there's 5 at least you can stack (75%), so vengeance boons might get you the rest of the way. Maybe need to actually dodge the insta-kills though since Prom is un-damageable during them.

if you don't need the defensive of freeze then Aphro is great for grouping too yeah

Storm Ring I imagine would be great for bossing and single target damage

Super Nova is nice to have too but not necessary

think theres also a bug rn with the siege shredder hammer on charon where it also works on ospecials and not just specials

the old Dem/Apollo duo was BROKEN for Charon

wait dem apollo?

what does that do again?

low bear
#

the one that increased omega cast damage per use but increased mana cost too

#

but that doesn't matter because you don't use mana to trigger omega cast

low bear

it could be another god combination and I'm just misremembering, but yeah that boon was really nice on Charon

my highest is about 40ish fear with medea, still didnt hit over 200k on the attack

ah yes Torrential Downpour was the name and it was Dem/Apollo duo

+225% attack on a rare boon from Hera/Zeus duo. About to see how much damage i I'll do vs Eris

Is fixed gain okay in rift because you can control taking like 2 damage for it instead of e.g. 40? (Mostly came up in my eris fight rn where I realized “wait I’m not actually 100% out of mana w/o”… idk, proccing deaths defiance for it? ;p

Since she has a couple of oil slicks/explosive barrels on her arena

magic moss
#

fixed gain in general isn't desireable because the condition is that you need to take damage, which isn't really good

zealous condor
#

Esp when you can go quite a few rooms or fights w/o taking damage, especially if you actually get consistent, yeah…

#

Can’t wait to get destroyed by 1frenzy promotheus again, lol

At least I’m aware he’ll mark me ig (said as someone whose first 3 encounters against him were all victories)

Suddenly running away feels a lot harder 😦

Do you just like, only damage him when he does the dumb AoE tracking circle thing that takes 4 seconds to go off (or whatever damage mana-less casts give you)?

water punching is pretty fun.

idk anything specific but im a huge fan of just spamming zeus on it

It has an endless combo so the waves never stop rocking.

i just don't think i can spend arcana anywhere other than either excellence or boatman without losing the queen or divinity. and i need to get that duo boon

cursive oyster

i think you shouldn’t worry too much about keeping queen

#

duos are already fairly common without it

and it’s gonna be a lot easier to get duos with 10 rolls than it would be with 3 rolls and queen

so take fates and furies instead of boatman?

i’d drop orig but either technically works

or see if i can leave boatman to get the extra rolls from seer

it would probably also work with mel blades but. i like being able to parry hecate's circle of flame and stay in close

it works best with mel torches if you care

Like killing Washing! Cerberus was fairly brisk with +20% speed (ferocity1? Do people just call it mandatory overtime since that’s what the heat was called in h1?) compared to… mostly getting destroyed by prom ngl

Sometimes still die to eris but honestly it’s 100% a skill issue on my part

I don't think Eris is harder, she just punishes mistakes very heavily

you get, like, 1 pom worth of value on a lot of your boons

if you take epic boons excellence is worthless

zealous condor

Better than common but I’d still rather just have duo/epic cards

And then almost never get duos because I barely know what half of them have as prerequisites, lol

Or it’s like “freeze effects trigger vent from Hephaestus, which is a minimum 2 boons from heph before you can even attempt to get this

I use the wiki whenever I'm fishing for duos

i mean if youre crazy and youre building than axe omega special apollo special is easily best in slot but i really suggest not doing that

Would it be broken to make anvil ring just be 3 blast effects? Keep the damage keep everything just make it blast so it can scale, i mean pretty much everyone elses cast scale with complementary boons so why not?

I'd recommend casting before using special to lock down enemies so they cant hit you while you're locking on

but yeah in terms of survivability of special vs omega cast

omega cast > special because you can move while casting it

Im thinking if you get some debuff boons it might do ok just firing the quick shot then dash strike into corwds

but I dont see the Omega being super great right now

So, what do people think of Tropical Cyclone (fromerly called Boreal Gust, Apollo/Dem duo)?
I don't see it talked about but I was trying to do the 16F Staff Prometheus testament and it carried me pretty hard (until I ran into the Dracon miniboss with Vow of Shadows)

is there anything yall can think of that have similar vibes/playstyle to the guan yu spin or ares blade rifts from hades 1? I really enjoyed those annd was wondering if there was anything similar but I couldnt think of one except MAYBE the advancing wwhirlwind and psychic whirl wind hammers together, but thats a little over niche

What would you take, Romantic spark vs Static Shock for a no damage control run? Xinth Mel 45F

past salmon
#

Seriously I'm mostly happy to help people out if they want it. If I'm helping someone else play the game it means I don't need to play the game myself!

#

Ahhhhhhhhhhh

No hit run means I'm fine with running Snow Queen, Nitro Boost, etc and letting those eat the hits, yeah ?
