I got him!

Completely and absolutely broken, huge no-hit build potential but I'm brainless with the axe

rapid wind
#

didnt get the hammer with seeking special, but it aint bad. probably one of my cleaner runs

lunar fog
#

finally got chronos on a special build with the default weapon , 2x hit on special, with poseidon special, then stack on attack speed, and hp

#

got him easy the damage alone from the splash alone 😂

fallow spoke
#

The most wack build I ever done to get that 24 fear dub on torch 😭
spirit surge is the true clutch here letting me run around in circles so I can stay alive lol

#

chronos was using the scythe throw too much last time so i treated him to some momus

solemn stone
#

tried momus, its probably stronger if i use it differently but idk kinda feels ok i guess

frigid forge
#

okay, i'm starting to unironically like the flames. just have to unironically NEVER USE THE ATTACK.

Hermes' Heroic projectile slowdown honestly a game changer for the first phase.

FIrst win of many I hope. Had +20 power from the fire infusion

All trials finally done, the aspect of eos one took me like 9 tries, gods i hate that aspect

32 fear run done. Beat Chronos with 7 hp and no death defiance left shadeembarassed

#

24 Fear Eos run. Still easier than the 16 on Mel, but not much better.

#

Woopwoop! First Clear baby~

feral root
#

Finally finished my 32 fear run. Momus poseidon spam for the win lol. Yeah momus is definitely getting tuned with no one even using the heal part of the aspect.

sand glade
#

I don't want to be tuned, because I fear the balancing will go wrong and special will be weak

ahhhhh first Chronos kill!!! 🥰 I think i had really bad boons and the basic staff with no aspect 😂 but ahh onwards to more adventures 💟

First Chronos win

Got to the second phase of the final boss for the first time and was so unprepared for those insta-kill hits lolll, four death defiances lost in quick succession. Next time I'll know better!

Victory! 11th run (honestly, wouldn't have been able without the Apollo cast and knowledge from the first few days watching some streams before finally deciding to dive in Early Access)

apparently if you make the final boss faster and dont have mobility boons you die. a lot

First clear last night after 30 attempts. I think it can't be overstated how important it is to have Origination and a BUTTLOAD of HP.

my biggest instance of damage

First win. You don't need to know how many attempts it took.

#

Definitely the fastest Hecate and Sirens I've had, absolutely melted

stray haven
#

Weird, my very first 2 wins were with aspects I was trying out for the first time, and I didn't even like both of them or had good builds! I think Persephone needs a lot of work but the Skulls are a really good weapon. I think I just beat Chronos because I finally stopped being scared of him 😅 and learned his moves. I think Artemis is a good weapon, the DPS is insane but having to wait for parry is annoying. Again, didn't have a good build but finally learned all of Chronos' tricks! That's the real key to victory zaggrin

spare whale
#

I credit this - my first 2 fear win and my first time beating chronos with more than 0 DDs left (this time I had 2) - to Dark Side + Born Gain (Hera infinite mana boon)

I used Dark Side about 10-12 times in the Chronos fight due to how much mana I was using, and dodged SO many hits through the invulnerability that Dark Side gives you. It did help to be using Momus so I recovered some health using the special bursts too.

Beat the game in the white dress. Now for the others...

Not Victory, but a Personal one. Got stuck on keeping boss 1 and 2 consistent and got them stabilized today, and then I got to boss 3 more and more, this was my 4th attempt, I don't expect to win vs final boss, y'know, learning mechanics of the fight is tough to do 1st try. Bog-standard Staff, and Arcana are as follows: I, II, V, VII, IX, XI, XII, XIII (Rare), XVI, XVII. That's what I'm using currently, I did Centaur to rarify, I think SPECIFICALLY because it was the best option I had at that time for what I had.

#

Edit: 4th time fighting Boss 3.

static cloud
#

unstoppable, invincible, too much health for chronos to take me down B)

i was getting it fully charged in basically every room, just gotta spam omega attack

ppl thinking the focus is the special is the mistake IMO, it's basically a big finisher, focusing in the omega attack is just straight up better

My fastest time by a good 7 minutes, couldve won without any lost dds but I was tryna go fast on chronos

Midway through chronos' second phase i ran into a bug where i couldn't do anything but dash in terms of movement

and i had sister blades which needed some positioning

Ye I paused in the middle of the fight and reported the bug

i did forget to take a screenshot at the end but supergiant has it

Finally got him! Aspect of momus with the 2x speacial hammer is just nuts. Wish i could have had aphrodites special but sadly I forgot to get her keepsake

second kill, I'm getting good at this

Revaal is hella fun

It's not a big victory but I killed eris while moros pin was active

tight lava
#

a victory is a victory

#

It was a surprise since I forgot I had the pin on and thought it was a regular death defiance

tight lava
#

I used Nem's charm to kill her

inner ether
#

Nice!

tight lava
#

She isn't hard once you figure her out

#

Axe works best for me against her

inner ether
#

I got really lucky with Zeus cast and icaruses bombs

#

Got to cheese the fight since my health was so low

tight lava
#

ah I did it with Heph attack with several poms

#

the recharge time goes down by a lot

inner ether
#

Haphestus is both great and mid. I can only imagine how much the poms help

tight lava
#

yeah it's really upgrade dependent to make it worth it

#

LOL I JUST BEAT CHRONOS ON 8 FEAR AND IT WAS MY FIRST 8 FEAR ATTEMPT. My prior record for beating chronos was 2 fear lol - I did this run as a joke/challenge just to see what 8 fear was like... I guess I need more fear guys

tight lava
#

works best with slow weapons too

tight lava
dreamy orbit

first fear 20 run complete. Aspect of Momus + Poseidon makes it almost trivial, even with foes 40% faster

No victory screen, but I finally got him, with the skulls no less. I thought for sure it would be staff, almost had him a couple times, but noooo, had to be the skulls, the weapon I knew the least about. Cheers to the +2 skull ammo hammer, and some sweet blitz on attack action.

runic tangle
#

Finally got my first Underworld win after about 21 Underworld runs and 1 proper surface run. This build was absolutely busted beyond belief, this aspect is so strong if you get the right Cast boons and Special

abstract axle
#

So I guess I can't post images in Builds, so I will post here. I guess I am boasting a bit. Whatever the hell this build ended up being shredded everything.

#

Hitch Attack, Blitz Special, Scorch Special, Born Gain, Chain Lightning Priming, and Hera's damage reduction legendary. Someone at SG really likes Hera, she has all the best boons

ripe seal
#

Really interested to see how high I can take this build - just Soot Sprint and the Persephone Omega Special was enough to kill Eris almost by itself, though the build actually ran out of time at Poly and probably needs work if it doesn't hit all three gods and no time saves.

is this the best cards option?

hoary gale

isnt really a best card option when most builds vary

pure gazelle
#

Finally did it. Ironically the build was so overpowered that I didn't need any defiance. I found the game to be harder than the first in general, and in particular I think Chronos is significantly harder than Hades. It took me roughly twice as many nights to get a clear as attempts in the first game.

this was a really weird run - burned all 10 of my re-rolls on Zeus to start and still managed to assemble Air Quality Scorch, then played the absolute worst Chronos fight of my life yet hung on for the victory despite very very low damage

get rekt eris

dreamy orbit
#

I think they need to buff staff specials, and nerf Momus to be honest. Maybe figure out a way to nerf poseidon on their specials also? Only way I can think of that feels good is increase cast time and increase base damage. Either way it's a very fun build so won't be complaining about it being good lol

just because Eris is such a jerk, I actually take more satisfactio in beating her than Chronos

Beat Chronos and Eris - pretty pleased and proud of myself

sadly I think the "Frying Pan" is a bit of a meme - it's really hard to get enough damage to get out of Erebus at 32 heat with 5 minute Desperation, I think, but I'm going to try.

Air Quality is so, so much better than I thought it was when I first started playing this game, sheeeeeeesh

and with that we ball.

you also need the hammer that returns the knives to you preferably

muted rune
#

the hammer that increases the attack for each consecutive hit on special is also really good but in the video i had the 16 knives

#

pan also increases knife count on special and auto aim when people in cast

#

which is why range cast is like almost required

#

for hammer tho going 6 rock elements and the coarse grit infusion then just smaking cronos and turning the one shot into a 16 is the way to go

muted rune
#

And that run had the keepsake from Artemis which requires

#

So they basically had to never Get hit

i just posted a piece of feedback regarding the difficulty, because i just beat chronos on my first attempt with ease. I'm not bragging any type of skill, because it became really underwhelming when u have a ton of range, dark side (invulnerability every 6 seconds or something with good mana usage), and a boon that literally gives u passive regen, which is kinda crazy even exists in hades. https://imgur.com/a/a8Euozi

#

is it just me who feels h2 is overall easier than h1? or did i just get used to the gameplay of hades because of the first game?

Only thing missing really is heroic aphro

Yeah

Heroic aphro wouldve went nuts

If I’m going aphro

For phase 1 yea

Had a bug where the instant death unless in area overlay was stuck on the entire fight, that was the scariest fight ever!!! but i got him with only seven health left

This build was insane. My first run with some fear I won.

momus + double moonshot + apollo/hera special is frankly stupid. I did not lose even a single death defy in a 20 fear run, and I killed chronos' 2nd phase in less than a minute.

Although you are at fear 20 so it might not work

damage is lower i think, splash damage doesn't scale with power in the same way than the +X% of Apollo & Hera do. But frankly I have not tried and it might be good too

I beat Chronos with a silly powerful build. The fight was over before I even realised. Most of my magick was primed, I had less than 20 available for me to use but thanks to Chaos I could fully charge the spinning omega attack on the Thanatos scythe for only 7 magick and release it after dashing to get the boost from the Artemis boon. Edit: looks like I must have picked up a bit more magick on the final stretch

Chronos just has too much life if things don't super line up. I was hoping for the double Omega Attack hammer. But if you don't really get a handful of hammers, this game becomes a crazy drag. Everything else was fine to a lot of fun. But you get to Chronos and the game just lasts an eternity.

Still trying to complete everything without heat for now, just with each of the weapons with Melinoë’s aspects. I don’t get axe at all.

can someone clarify something for me about the keepsakes?

im wondering if the "a boon from X god is likely" portion of the keepsake stays in effect indefinitely, or if it stops working when this text changes due to using the rarify

devout cedar
rugged egret
#

It’s not indefinitely afaik. You need to use other whilst you have the keepsake equipped.

hoary gale
carmine mason
#

hmm, it has been feeling like im still running into apollo boons often enough to guess its working? but it may be confirmation bias

muted rune
#

You use keepsakes to guarantee the goods you want for your build

carmine mason
#

yes yes. i know that. im just clarifying if the increased chance of finding that god continues to work even after it says "keepsake expired" 🙂

muted rune
#

It guarantees they’ll be in the god pool

#

Like there’s a soft lock of 4 different gods’ boons

#

So like once you’ve gotten 4 different gods boons you’ll mostly only see those gods

#

So it kinda does but not in the way you’re meaning

#

So like you want a bunch of pos put on the pos keepsake at the start and you’ll see him a bunch throughout the run cause he’s in your god pool

carmine mason
#

not exactly what i was asking but i did not know that

#

was it like that in hades 1 ?

#

ohhhhh i think i get what ur saying.

muted rune
carmine mason
#

once u equip it once, and grab a related boon, that boon will continue to show with or without the keepsake

#

because its in the pool

muted rune
#

Yes

carmine mason
#

ahhh thats where the bias is coming in

split lion
#

Yeah but again, None of this answers Winterz question

carmine mason
#

sick so i absolutely should switch between areas

split lion
#

Are you more likely to see the god when it expires?

#

I think the answer is no.

muted rune
#

Well technically yes but the keepsake doesn’t effect that

split lion
#

So no then 😛

carmine mason
#

yes its a bit tricky to explain and i just got it

muted rune
#

And is the case for grabbing any boon

mental mural
#

I better get some elemental stuff

muted rune
#

You’ll see that god more likely from that point

carmine mason
#

that does explain the confirmation bias. that helps alot actually

#

now i can switch them out to level other keepsakes without worry of losing out

It’s how you like build a coarse grit build to make it so only rock elemental gods get into your pool

Got the No Hit Run. Rules are on the description.
Sorry about the extra video parte i have on the start. Its fixed already, the video is being processed. Poseidon Build with Hestia dual btw!

https://youtu.be/tZfDRMOZTJQ

Those are the rules I followed, in the same Line as Hades 1 on Team Hitless. Maybe its a World First or something, who knows...

– No dodge chance (dodge%) or Glare effect from Apolo. You can build it but if you get hit run will be invalid even if you didnt receive damage. This includes boons from Hermes, Melinoe Keepshakes, Arcanus Cards etc.....

zinc stirrup
slow shore
# minor valley Lol, good job too! I did lose a death defiance to cerb but managed to buy it bac...

I had four death defiances and burned through two - still had the tooth and the cat defiance available. It was very much just loading a lot of damage onto the omega attack and then having decent cast and specials to fire off on occasion. And a big lot of trying not to die. I am still really not good at dodging the Chr Phase 1 attacks (I really struggle with judging things like the big circular spinny one) and they all hit like absolute trucks. But I'll get better 🙂

#

Every other build I've brought to Chronos he's felt very difficult but this one wasn't even a good version of its thing and it was still totally 100% free

It's a hammer for the twin blades. Max omega attack +400% damage but cost more mana. THat plus level 1 of the aspect that makes it charge faster is pretty much a free run, you just chunk stuff for 600 at a time and never leave slow-mo

#

It needs some mana support

#

but this run didn't find any until the shop outside of chronos other than the stuff from arcana and then did fine with a white tranquil gain

#

It benefits from anything with %damage on attacks and stuff that boosts omega moves but at some point you're gilding the lily

#

My best version of it probably was Born Gain (hera) for functionally infinite mana, hera's hitch strike and the hera/venus duo that make hitch inflict weak and hitched foes take 20% more damage

#

but it really doesn't matter, this is the worst version of the build I've ever assembled pretty much (first time I've done it on the down path, I started doing this on olympus path w/ reliable early hammers)

#

and even if the rest of the build's pretty meh it's still almost unloseable

#

The other thing about the build is because it uses mana so fast you can use your hex a ton; but it's actually pretty hard to get that to work. I had the reanimate a dead guy one which was actually pretty solid in the chronos fight. The ones that do damage have a weird problem where they get out-damaged by omega x still

I normally avoid the knife's omega attack upgrades as I figured that they would fall short in the boss fights. I guess I will give it a try next time do a knife run.

Still haven't beaten everything but just finished beating both bosses last night, back to back. Beat the overworld boss then the next run beat the underworld. Fantastic game and still playing with the additional challenges. Just wanted to pop in and say I love the game. thanks for the awesome effort devs! the game came out on my 25th birthday btw.

AAAAAAHHHHH It's DONE I still almost choked at Chronos I am awful at that fight

This is 32 Fear Chronos with no:

-Aspect of Momus
-Poseidon
-Born Gain

With Vow of Desperation rank III and Vow of Fury rank II

This was very hard and is not consistent at all I just wanted to show, mostly to myself, that it can be done.

And I’m starting to recognize when Chronos does certain moves. Though the urn guys in the clock phase still annoy the hell out of me

explosive ambush is really mana hungry too haha when playing omega attack daggers or like artemis

still haven't tried to use that one

I FINALLY BEAT CHRONOS

And that's my first clear! After so many close ones, feels weird to win without even popping a defiance, but that's what 300 damage specials will do for you, I guess.

Embarrassingly enough it took me almost 60 tries(including runs where I just decided to allow myself to die and surface runs prior to the incantation) but I finally beat good old grandpa

#

Got my first win! I've avoided all knowledge outside the game until now so it feels good to have discovered such a good (and simple) build by myself! Having a BLAST so ig it's time to go see what else there is to do! 😃

heat 32 on something other than momus. not too hard at all and i played sloppy and reckless. perfect hammers and great chaos though.

first clear, am very surprised i did it with the twin blades

Eos omega attack + Hera is automatic (at least for low heat), I really just dash around boss, did not dodge carefully, willing to get hit in exchange of better damage, and it works they are finished in seconds.

this would have been my fastest run by about 3 minutes but I went for a triple pom room instead of following the express route and it was filled with elite hourglasses

My first victory on my 16th run! It was a mess, my controller disconnected and chronos unpaused my game 💀

Not even close this one.

Im so dumb i forgot to switch to aspect of milenoe instead of pan for melee focus. no wonder cronos feels abit harder than usual. dumb me

Done it!!! The magic staff is really good!! This boss had F12 on it before start the run, That means the minimum in order to get the nightmare?

i know this isn't much, but very first win against Chronos with one death defiance and 1/2 health to spare

i managed to do 1st phase hitless, and it was my first time getting past 10 seconds into his 2nd phase

Finally beaten Chronos first time! Hades II took me so much longer to beat the final boss than I did in Hades I. I know it's not much but I was genuinely struggling with him as he hits so hard, but I finally done it. (Sort of a cheesy strat though with just using specials with the Staff).

I'm a day late posting this, but I'm pretty proud of this as a first clear
Didn't mean to make it a spoiler but can't change it now lol

I forgot to take a screenshot but i did it!! and didn’t know where else to celebrate! It took 37 runs and I have thumb cramps but it was worth it.

Got ‘em both! I cannot wait for more!

craziest run i've had yet, killed chronos in less than 2 minutes aspect of charon is so much fun

Very nice run for synergy on Omega Attack Axe. Shame the game glitched, black screened and I lost the win, all my resources and my 4 heat mark on Cerberus

wanted to try out a run with a weapon i hated and some gods whose boons i thought were pretty mediocre... had a lot of fun in the end!

Though, I dont know if it makes it level 6 if you have the aspect at rank 5

It was almost zeus that put me down in my run. Cost me 2 death defiance. His wrath is so fast and hard to see. And I'm pretty sure my bullet time when doing omega attacks does not work on his wrath circles
