I was gonna do "hardest 32 fear" but removing Time and adding actual hard vows like Fangs or Forfeit or Hordes or Grit would probably make it harder lol

Feels bad to hear people clown selene coat, not that hard to just hit the nuts every time. Exceptional talent + heroic racing thoughts is one thing, but whispered prayer that could proc on each omega move and a witches mark i could save to chronos just felt too good to be true. only 2 more underworld aspects left for all 48 on 40f above and below!

Thanks, Ares for giving me Mutual Destruction and Blood Spree right before Chronos

My final clear on 40f above and below! momus on underworld feels a lot better than the surface, at least comparing between my clears. Epic Vital signs felt like white antler, but i was most impressed i even won on momus without a magick regen (hecuba orbs and hex for boss fights). my opinion on hecuba has gone up like crazy, she consistently enables early omega usage for high dps so im able to bank up a lot of time r1/2 so i can be more careful and take my time against chronos.

I'd done most of my clears for all aspects 40f above and below during short bursts in Fall 2025, Jan 2026, and Apr 2026. Each time i took a break almost certainly made me better at the game, or at least renewed my enjoyment and kept me open-minded.

I'd originally intended to complete the challenge using judgement and 2 levels of void vow, but eventually my relatively subpar mechanics caught up to me on my weaker aspects so i'd be dying often in erebus. I've learned a lot about the game, but without getting too linkedin warrior about it, i feel like my planning mindset, downside mitigation, and preemptive risk management have gotten a lot stronger (he's doing SWOT analysis for the video game with the pretty greek gods is he serious).

All bs aside I'm proud that I could do this. I'm not really interested in another lap through 48 clears above and below at some higher fear, more probably the next thing i do is fear or speedrun pb if at all. Thanks for reading if you did.

Special does way more damage especially when you overlap it with the daybreaker

Since the attack only hits one enemy at a time

While the special can hit multiple enemies and is duplicated by the daybreaker
