[trim stratus]

First 40 Fear Surface Clear. Mel Coat with Rivals 4 and Grit 3.

[eager pelican]

Medea fun

[bright wing]

I call this one: ''The Perfect dawn''

[trim stratus]

And 40 Fear Below with Rivals 4 and Grit 3.

[snow quiver]

first win going up

[eager pelican]

just get 600 HP and Rivals 4 + Pain 3 isn't so bad I guess

[tardy flame]

Missing Dionysus and Super Nova but I think I did great. Maybe I should have used Hestia instead of Zeus because idk if his duo with Apollo actually triggers

[cinder fossil]

Holy casts

[last stump]

Pew pew pew

[royal light]

First 62 fear win probably the longest one too (?) . I died to the timer a bit too many times than I’d care to admit, but yay 😄

[wary fog]

born gained all my magic away right before typhon's last phase so i had to survive that for like a full minute and kill him with nothing but lvl3 rare hera atttack. if the fight went on for one more frame i think i would have died lmao

[lethal flicker]

Born gain is the best gain.... until it isn't

[hollow bane]

until it eventually becomes gain’nt

[royal light]

Me when I prime out during a magical spam build

[lethal flicker]

Yeah, I need to make that chart at some point of "How much Mana cap do you have" versus "how much mana do you need?"

[golden mango]

em4 typhon feels so hard, idk how you guys clear it so easily on high heat

[lethal flicker]

He's actually super predicable and telegraphed

once you know the tells to look for, it's fine

[cinder fossil]

It's the frenzy that gets ya

[pliant tiger]

not as impressive as a max fear clear but i got a new surface pb (shoutouts to security system for saving me on the summit)

[gentle swan]

daum aspect of charon is good

[regal shard]

Bad run

[ancient marlin]

I'm pretty sure barely anyone has even cleared max fear lmao

I know Foolish did it but it seems pretty crazy

[vague pine]

To my knowledge, there’s 2 67 clears (a seeded/modded Trick Knives Pan run not shown, and Foolish’s Medea clear). There have been a lot of 62s, and a few runs done at 63-65, but the last 2 gear difference I think has been only done twice.

[regal shard]

Redemption run

[ancient marlin]

I didn't know about the other one but yeah Foolish is the goat

He literally managed to beat it with 0.01s left

Actually insane behaviour

[winged sigil]

he had like 0.9 seconds left why do people think that

the last tick of damage hit him at 20:29.80

[vague pine]

I think that’s what was claimed in the reactions to it.

[winged sigil]

losing a defiance messes up the timer damage

[olive zenith]

really good medea run, im not that good w the aspect though

[snow quiver]

possessed array feels very overpowered

[opal dew]

idk the win felt cool

[waxen wagon]

poseidon is honestly not bad with supay

[grave needle]

Yes indeed

[cinder fossil]

Soup ?

[solemn jolt]

I don't remember if I had posi but I used Supay for my 32 fear run

I might have a screenshot on my phone actually

Can't exactly tell but looks like Zeus, Hera, Hestia, and Demeter to me

[desert moon]

I love it when a plan comes together

the suffering is finally over

[waxen forum]

wtf 33 minutes on a supay run with godmode?

[waxen forum]

possessed array with exceptional talent is even funnier

[pliant tiger]

sub 7 pb in underworld lets go

[waxen forum]

nice! im still on 7:13 😅

[snow quiver]

this build was very fun

[grave needle]

White Charon bOOoOoOooO

[waxen forum]

no upgrades on your weapon and only 29 grasp wtf

[snow quiver]

cant afford yet working on it

[solemn jolt]

I idle a ton I usually have a video going on or people I talk to, or just plain walk away for a bit. Plus it was only the second time I'd attempted 32 fear, so I was still finding my bearings

[pastel agate]

Finally

[pastel agate]

how you take that damages wtf

[snow quiver]

idk bad at dodging i guess

[pastel agate]

but how you don't die ???

that amount is wow

[snow quiver]

death defiences

i used like 5

[pastel agate]

wow ok

[winged sigil]

why were you running void4

can i see the full vow setup

[pastel agate]

i just added all that i have unlocked

but yeah void is horrible

revange too

[winged sigil]

do you happen to have recorded the run? cause it'd be the current fear record on aspect of artemis 👀

[pastel agate]

wtf

bruh

how that can be the record ? Artemis is that bad ?

[winged sigil]

no it's just that no one is really grinding it right now

[pastel agate]

poseidon atacks + artemis is just broken, and parry is insane

[vague pine]

Hmm… what do the crits apply to with Artemis?

[winged sigil]

only the attacks and specials

[vague pine]

Also, yeah. Next to nobody runs Artemis at higher fears, and next to nobody runs Void at high fears outside of 67

[vague pine]

I was thinking “Did they choose Poseidon Attack because the crits apply to the waves?”

Because what I believe are the waves are nearly equal to the attack damage (a difference of about 30,000)

[eager pelican]

They don’t, no

[pastel agate]

you can't crit with waves but artemis tp atack an op dodge and parry

just immortality if used correctly

poseidon just used to destroy lifebars

[vague pine]

Yeah. I’ve been meaning to push Blades higher, but I haven’t gotten around to it. In terms of “records” unseeded, Medea is at 67, Eos and I think Nyx are at 65, most aspects are at 62, but a few haven’t gotten a 62 clear recorded for Crossroads.

I think the list was like… Artemis Blades, Mel Blades, Axe, and maybe Skull, and a few others.

(62 in this case is all but Void, and 65 is all but Void 4)

[pastel agate]

@winged sigil world records are somewhere or just you think I have it ?

[vague pine]

There’s a website made by Autumn called “h2crossroads”

It is a documentation place of high fears runs from I believe 32 and up.

[pastel agate]

Ok

[vague pine]

Every single aspect has at-least one run at the time of Patch 11, and all aspects have had a run clear 50 at some point, but some haven’t been pushed to 62

[pastel agate]

and it's only counted if we have recorded the run ?

[vague pine]

I think so, yes

[pastel agate]

ok

[vague pine]

The whole idea is that you submit your Fear, Arcana, Aspect, Familiar, and Video of the clear.

[pastel agate]

I'm going to try to do it again by recording

[vague pine]

Then people can watch your run to improve

[winged sigil]

https://h2crossroads.pages.dev/

autumn keeps track of runs here

[vague pine]

Anyway, congrats on clear foxiou.

[pastel agate]

thx

[coarse gull]

Nothing crazy just my first run completed, this game is addicting.

[pastel agate]

I don't even know how I managed to pass the first zone

[warm elbow]

Far and away the best run. Like so OP I skipped part of Typhon. Reckless abandon is crazy

[vague pine]

How’s the Artemis runs going atm?

[waxen forum]

20min run on 0 fear doesnt seem like an op run im ngl

[gilded ravine]

any run can be op regardless of fear

[waxen forum]

if it takes that long with 0 grit and 0 hordes im not sure its that op

[vague pine]

It could be one of their first runs though.

[gilded ravine]

not everyone has the time to invest into like high fear so it's not really fun to discredit low fear runs as "not op" or whatever

[waxen forum]

true that

if i was running mirrored thrasher i would go with power surge/static shock and hestias gain, idk if lucid gain can keep up with mirrored thrashers attack spend

also dont poseidon waves have an internal cd now?

[desert moon]

how much attack power is too much attack power

[pastel agate]

Can't pass the first area on the most of my runs because of the timer and died at second or last area when I get there

I hate satyrs

[regal shard]

Yey

[craggy stratus]

Nice run! Since your entry is leading a category, could you record a gameplay for Artemis at a similar or slightly lower fear level?

[pastel agate]

I'm trying

But I need too many luck to pass the first area and I die later when I get to last area or second

Because of timer 😢

[craggy stratus]

Time0 at 51 or Void0 at 52.

Just need gameplay.

[waxen forum]

missed the 20 power hammer

[desert moon]

yeah sadly

did get Rapid Onslaught though which made up for it a little

[vague pine]

Ok, I know this is a very old victory (nearly a month old), but I finally got a semi-decent artwork done of my first 50 Fear clear on both ends (this is a video link to the UW)

https://youtu.be/-DE698TJ504?si=fDpVo0obl-1H1-JZ

To think that I’ve since cleared 50+ about 7 or 8 times, one of which being a 62, within that time span…

[regal shard]

Suffered the most damage from typhon during the circle phase :(

[eager hemlock]

um. wow

[wary fog]

really shocked this run went anywhere lol, highest heat ive beaten so far

[wary fog]

32 underworld done so already no longer my highest heat. also nohit chronos which was surprising (first time fighting rivals cerb thats why i took so much lol)

[hazy cloak]

posting my first victory screen here to show off my easy 16 fear strat: flying at chronos with 6 molotov cocktails at once

[blissful tundra]

I've never been so upset by a victory. After at least a hundred attempts to trying beat Underworld 62F with Supay, Eos and then Mel Flames, I switched to Medea for 1 run out of frustration, just wanting a quick break. And then suddenly I win on the 1st try. 😐 And it wasn't even close. 😑

This is how my first Underworld 62F clear is forever tainted.

funny build

[regal shard]

700 suffered from crono woe

gg tho. I can't play 62 because lack of healing

[south monolith]

World's first sub 4 minute run YIPPEEE

[blazing vortex]

fun build tried to get execptional talent at first but didnt get it but the build is still fun

[regal shard]

Wait, how is antler level 4? I don't see the duo that does that. Or did you sell it?

Oh wait nvm, I found it in the screenshot

[pastel agate]

my screenshot is broken wtf

[pastel agate]

absolute tank

blind effect + aphrodite effect + aspects' heal + hammer that give me 20% damage res when atacking XD

[pliant tiger]

got another pb lfg, so close to sub 6 please lord

[pastel agate]

not a build, just a way to become god in hades 2

[south monolith]

https://youtu.be/ZdM-uiESw-I

[frank crow]

yay! first defeatr

[pastel agate]

my new fav weapon

[last stump]

Chop Chop Chop

[grave needle]

munch munch your health its now gone!

Wait why does it say 18%

[pastel agate]

yeah wtf

and he is no at max charge on his screenshot

[vague pine]

Ok, idea. Maybe it’s because of Executioner’s Chop?

[grave needle]

Awesome bug

gotta try it

[last stump]

I don't know why it gets past the usual limit. It even got to 23% at one point I think. Probably a bug with all the X2 hits

[vague pine]

Woah….

You wouldn’t mind if that’s shared with everyone else, right?

**like in #h2-builds-and-combat and #h2-discussion

Actually, nvm.

[pliant tiger]

new pb surface, midway through the summit my pc just crashed outta nowhere, im absolutely pissed cuz i was recording the run too

[steep haven]

The highest fear I've beaten so far! 😊

[rough jungle]

this is as good as aspect of selene can get

[snow quiver]

wow congratulations

[grave needle]

No GOdsent booooo selene run /j

oh nvm

[desert moon]

That would be Success Rate, somewhat surprisingly it can raise the Thanatos crit chance

[last stump]

that makes sense

[gaunt elm]

I should really try that "don't get hit" strategy. I cant play often so I'm still getting use to 40% frenzy with Rivals

[hot kite]

momus omega cast build (forgot to screenshot at end)

[lethal furnace]

fun 32f build with max heinous affront sheningans. anubis ares attack with heinous affront with heroic light smite and divine vengeance and soulfilled ankh just nuked rooms from orbit. very lacking bossing when compared tho.

[vague kernel]

Face tanked the 2nd half of grandpa bc i had to leave, but a new fear pb for me 🙂‍↕️

[eager hemlock]

i dont even know where to begin with this build to be honest

i didnt even know 1 second heph blasts were possible i thought it capped at 2

[cinder fossil]

That level 8 sea star really carried the run I bet

[grave needle]

Seismic Servo 🗣️

[eager hemlock]

i got it near the end of olympus and the only thing it did was double the poms from supply chain actually lol

[grave needle]

Heph its based as always

[eager hemlock]

but when it doubled the poms from supply chain it was really funny, because i also had some hermes shipments come in that chamber so it was just nonstop poseidon voicelines for a couple seconds

[south monolith]

Technically it lies
It's more like a 1.4-1.5s cooldown iirc

[eager hemlock]

why's that

[south monolith]

Cuz that's just what the decrease amounts to
Lol

[eager hemlock]

do you mean seismic servo or are you talking about just level 4 heroic attack

because ik about seismic servo but i thought the level 4 heroic attack was actually one second

[trim stratus]

I wasn't even trying that hard, it just kinda happened.

[south monolith]

Heph attacks are capped at 2s seismic servo brings this down to 1s but it's actually ~1.4s

[eager hemlock]

thats what i mean, my heph attack said 1s

[south monolith]

Yeh cuz you have seismic

[eager hemlock]

i got the extra level from a pom slice, bug maybe?

ohhh i didnt know that seismic was factored into the displayed cooldown

[fervent jolt]

We love Ripple Effect!

[trim stratus]

Yup. It may take different amounts of Poms, but it won't even appear in the pom selection screen if you've got it down to 2 seconds. Getting extra levels through something like Bridal Glow has no affect.

(Also, congrats on the sub 4 minute run!)

[eager hemlock]

what that was them???

i saw that run that was crazy dude good stuff

[desert moon]

dash-strike to nuke anything lower than a miniboss lol

[waxen wagon]

apollo legendary run

[pastel agate]

wtf I don't know that glyph boosts

[desert moon]

why choose between OP attack and OP special when you can simply have both?

[astral aspen]

that was crazy ramdom build i just trolled then tried not hit on the 2nd boss then i just wanted to kill chronos lol my hex was just waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to op i literally took him from 50% to 0 with 1 use

[wary fog]

dash strike with exhaust riser on the coat hits alot of times huh. poseidon waves went crazy this run

[winged sigil]

oh by the way I'm a 62er now

[regal shard]

Don't have time

[snow quiver]

oh wow very close

[eager pendant]

I love how you weaved omega attack into standard combo!

[winged sigil]

yeah most medea players forget that omega moves are a thing but its oattack is very good

[wary fog]

queens ransom gaming (got offered a level 22 tough gain in the final shop that reduced all damage by like 25 which was funny)

[undone mango]

made rivals kronos feel like regular kronos what an insane run

[lethal furnace]

not a victory but a rare naturally activated uncoomon grace without proper upbringing going into the final boss.

[undone mango]

whats with the double boon icons

[snow quiver]

oh no idea just noticed it maybe had too many boons?

[winged sigil]

each screen can only hold 35 icons it happens when you pick too many boons and offerings

fun fact: the game can't process more than 2 screens for boons and offering so if you mod your game to get a ton of stuff and pass 70, the game crashes when trying to generate your victory screen

[snow quiver]

is it possible to get 70 boons without mods?

[winged sigil]

assuming you get a full path of stars and get a major find in every single room, runs are all around 50 rooms

so no

hippo did it by making every single room in ephyra, including the side rooms, contain a boon

[reef cobalt]

It shouldn't be. I've gotten extremely close naturally thoughg

like 1 full line short

so 7 things?

requires you to fully max out selene boon, after rnging the path with most starts(1/4 i think)

then artificer boons

and buy stuff from hermes shops naturalling them often

its probably possible

If they add in a pool of purging equivalent to surface its might actually be probable even, with hera buy sell shenanigans

[wild adder]

Getting a Heroic Sea Star with the phial early on can get you so much stat. Poseidon + Aphrodite + Hephestus is such a strong defensive combo.

[lethal flicker]

Melinoe invents the fire-hose againt typhon

Also that was a title that I didn't even know existed

[desert moon]

skull omega attack kinda goes crazy ngl

[lethal flicker]

Would've given your left arm to get Wide Grin on that?

[desert moon]

would've been nice, hard to complain with the hammers I did get though

the end of that run would be such a pain without Fetching Array lol

[eager pendant]

My fav uncle and cousin. <3

[eager pendant]

Also kinda unpopular opinion - i like nyx's coat more than selene

[blissful tundra]

I don't think that's unpopular at all 💀

[lethal furnace]

Could old natural selection have made it possible?

[reef cobalt]

Maybe? You'd have to get it literally in ephyra though

then it would override the major rewards in thess + olympus

honestly maybe this 3rd boon page issue is why summit has almost no rewards

lmao

[lethal furnace]

I still keep old builds of the games, I might try it out for fun.

[reef cobalt]

you'd still need to highroll a lot of hermes shop mystery boons + get enough side rooms to artificer minor resources in ephyra

cause if you do natural selection your removing the minor resources to artificer

which means you're probably net neutral MAYBE positive by 1-2 boons

mostly the hermes shop rng though cause you need to get a lot of path of stars + mystery boons + somehow have the gold to buy these things without coin reward rooms since natural selection deleted them

self solving problem since natural selection nukes the gold

highroll medea +40 gold per room and hermes quick buck i guess?

[lethal furnace]

So basically, first room Demeter second room posidon then third room Demeter for the second requirement of the duo + three side doors with three minor rewards to artificer (all boons) then hit the duo with quick buck and travel deal and Medea gold curse. Ez setup lmao

[reef cobalt]

heracles in one of those rooms too

just for the gold cause you need the early gold to buy out the hermes shops from the side rooms that you highroll spawned

theres also the funny tech of getting circe to upgrade artificer for another 4 charges

though dunno how you're gonna use them

[lethal furnace]

Cannot use them since no minor rewards at this point.

Let’s move this to discussion since we are in victory channel

[pallid tiger]

early to boast yet, but sea star + aspect of persephone + success rate + bridal glow... I think I might be fine

[crimson cave]

circe is so funny. i got the card activation card XD

[stoic mantle]

pretty easy win this time round

(hilarious amounts of damage)

[dusty nexus]

how did i get traps on my damage inflicted screen

[reef cobalt]

i think steam is traps?

[dusty nexus]

huh

[gilded ravine]

it's prob olympus statues

steam is "scalding vapor"

[wheat wraith]

1000 damage taken by typhon haha

[vague kernel]

i love scalding vaporigination

[fervent jolt]

Absolutely insane run that basically melted everything, double allies + quad cast eruption goes insanely hard.

[mighty wing]

53 fear pb carried by echo dds

[quartz anvil]

took the Black Coat out for the first time and accidentally killed Chronos (engraved pin hard carried im NOT going to lie)

[waxen wagon]

little bit of this and little bit of that ahh anubis build

[frigid walrus]

Here’s what I did to beat Chronos!

[twilit python]

Got extremely lucky with this dodge chance build. 83% dodge chance motionless. Plus 20% with daze and another 7% with Hot Pot. Mostly beat Typhon without moving

[olive zenith]

first r4 frenzy2 win! and on artemis too

[eager hemlock]

55% damage increase from martial art thank you hephy

[snow quiver]

16 fear done. i hate rivals sirens

[stoic mantle]

finally got typhon 😭

did like 9000 damage in one go with the beams tho so that was fun

[grave needle]

PGGGGT LMFAO

[eager pendant]

It will be one of my fav and the funniest build - turning Meli into beyblade. xD

[nova crater]

first time playing hades 2 in a hot minute

[topaz yarrow]

annihalated 32 fear with rivals and max frenzy with (what is in my opinion at least) one of the strongest builds in the game

10 min 44 second 32 fear is hillarious

This is my 2nd ever max frenzy rivals typhon clear btw

This build is also extremely flexible (aside from possessed array being required for this build to work)

Imagine this but with exceptional talent

[topaz yarrow]

first try 32 fear surface mel axe, this build was surprisingly solid tbh

This build was really weird, I sort of just came up with ideas on how this build should go as I went

[mighty wing]

50f supay with chaos dd

[solemn jolt]

Had so much fun with this build :D was probably my fastest rivals typhon kill as well

[regal shard]

Fyi I dodge 3/4 p3 scythe attacks. That one time I couldn't because I used dash to dodge his dash attack

[lime arch]

New record! This time with a weapon I'd been previously struggling with for a LONG time.

[round imp]

Ouh

[gilded ravine]

strength my goat 😎 👍

[regal shard]

Yeah strength is way to go. I can't play diddy. I remember switching back to dd and immediately felt that -20% damage from strength and said no

[sterile grail]

funniest image ive seen in a while

[lethal flicker]

Dodge chance sadly isn't additive

[topaz yarrow]

weirdest 32 fear run of all time

This was a jack of all traits build which is something you never see

Attack does good damage once you get blood drops going and special was mostly there for safety and crowd control

Anyways, 32 fear underworld and surface with all aspects 20/48

[desert moon]

another silly slow cooker run
forgot to pom the attack boon at all whoops

[eager pendant]

Funny cracked combo. Basically I had infinity mana. xD

[halcyon verge]

this is the second time sun worshipper has carried me through typhon's last phase, but it is a 20 fear surface victory! now i have to do it with 32, it's going to be brutal

[twilit python]

😭 Felt like I was dodging near 90% just standing still

[crude sentinel]

i still had the tooth but tbh bringing it was a misclick in the first place. so close to a loss.

[regal agate]

easily one of the best runs I've ever had. If only I could share the seed; I got max level heph attack in the first 2 rooms

[bleak plaza]

almighty chaos

[crude sentinel]

hard to set up because you can't roll hammers, but if it comes online...

[bleak plaza]

Wide Grin nuke is always fun

[crude sentinel]

i legitimately phased chronos out of his opening instant kill in phase 2 with one omega. half his health bar just...gone

(i'd rolled the +2 shells hammer with a keepsake so i was REALLY nuking everything)

[bleak plaza]

Chaos Below

[desert moon]

the stars aligned

[bleak plaza]

Total Eclipse carried the Typhon fight

[south monolith]

Surface 62 yay

[quartz anvil]

hehehe staff go brrrr (mirrored thrasher, cardio gain, and volcanic strike synergize REAL nice together imo)

[bleak plaza]

Chaos almighty this run was tough early on with Frenzy 2 on Charon
but Giga Cleaver for 2 insta Geyser Spout was worth it

[thorn geyser]

Holy, I think this is the best run I ever had. I was just bullying the bosses, and getting an extra fountain in the middle of Mt Olympus just sealed the deal with all the extra moon water uses

[cinder fossil]

My man

More surface content pls

[south monolith]

probably not much anytime soon I'm tragically busy over the next couple days and I will be silking my song after that

[cinder fossil]

Who up silkin they song, fr

Understandable tho

[regal shard]

First try 60f

new personal best 🥳 (could have been better if i had gotten artemis but wtv)

[regal agate]

this is one of the most aggressive wins I've ever seen... I didn't even get the chance to use my keepsake

[crystal rapids]

preemptive win posting cause...

[crystal rapids]

i hit the actual jackpot for special damage i think

[icy tartan]

2 seconds on Heph bonk

[split anvil]

Finally a win with the worst Aspect in the game!

[tiny pewter]

surprisingly fun hitch build featuring a strong hex as well

[regal shard]

[waxen forum]

it works best with chain lightning, froth, wave/scorch attack

[lethal flicker]

Managed to not have attacks or specials on the damage board at all here

[steep bramble]

No victory to show yet. But made it to 62 Chronos Phase 3 for the first time on Mel Staff. Almost there

[random glade]

I believe dodge chance is additive

[lethal flicker]

I do not

I've had extreme chances in the past and it was anything but due to the additive nature

[random glade]

You can look on YouTube for "100% dodge chance hades II", e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nv-ZigmSfVs

[lethal flicker]

yeah, and you can see him taking damage

so clearly 103% dodge rate isn't true

[random glade]

I think it's just from non-scorched foes (which was less than 100% dodge). You can look at this one instead if you don't believe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frneuoB23_Y&t=126s

[lethal flicker]

I'm looking at the actual combatlogic

[reef cobalt]

its 100% additive and can go up to 100% to be infinite for sure

what vid are we talking about having him take damage with 100%

the one above?

[lethal flicker]

This one, right towards the end, but if scorch is involved then I guess?

[reef cobalt]

looking at the first time i see him take damage vs tail he got hit by the add which wasn't scorched so no hot pot

2nd time its the add

yeah every hit that fight is the land dracons

[lethal flicker]

Daze is separate right? Is that what I'm getting thrown by?

[reef cobalt]

daze is different yeah

[lethal flicker]

Probably it

Seems insane to be additive tbh

[gilded ravine]

yea daze is a separate check

[reef cobalt]

56.25+30+9
95% dodge before scorch doubling

[random glade]

If it was multiplicative, in both videos they'd have about 24-25% chance to be hit even from scorched foes, which would mean they'd get hit much more often than they did (even the 3 times in the Haelian video).

What "combatlogic" are you seeing?

[lethal flicker]

the actual game scripts

[reef cobalt]

tail in the typhon fight is actually a complete unique add and isn't typhon

you used to be able to kill it patch 1 of unseen with hestia godsent

until they made it immune

same with the hand that slams + fires a ball

[random glade]

Yeah, I'm just asking where you're seeing it's multiplicative in the game code. I'm curious.

[reef cobalt]

since you can't scorch them can never double the chances =5% to get hit

[lethal flicker]

I wasn't, I was still looking through it when I said that

[reef cobalt]

and yeah im positive dodge is additive, it might have a cap of some sort which is different, just like how god mode is capped but im also near positive it doesn't

daze is 20% after the dodge misses

cause you have to get hit for daze logic to occur

daze is take 0 on hit, not avoid hit

[lethal flicker]

That's another case of weird hyperbolics

[reef cobalt]

dodge avoids the hit

not really?

[lethal flicker]

well, adding 1% dodge chance when you have none is 1% less damage

[reef cobalt]

Daze says chance for enemy hit to deal 0. If you are never hit how is it going to have a chance to deal 0

[lethal flicker]

adding 1% chance when you're at 90% is essentially 10% less damage from then

[reef cobalt]

that just seems like you bending the logic to make it work when its not whats happening

Dodge says don't get hit. Logic never runs for being hit = daze never occurs

[lethal flicker]

I wasn't talking at all about daze

[reef cobalt]

o

[lethal flicker]

just about additive dodge

how each % added is more powerful than the last

literal hyperbolic mathematics

[reef cobalt]

i don't really see the issue though, cause its really hard to get that high of a dodge without insane RNG

like even with gale here he would've have 99% dodge and still theoretically take damage.

[lethal flicker]

where your "effective" health is Health/(1-Dodge) which gets silly

[south monolith]

I can pretty much guarantee dodge is additive and also not capped

Someone did a run where they got 100% dodge chance and then afkd and let Raki solo Typhon a while ago

It was like 8 hours of afking

[ruby juniper]

the fuck

[reef cobalt]

peak gameplay

[ruby juniper]

well that defenitely was a lot of fun

[hollow bane]

lunar ray goes brrrr

[steep bramble]

there we go (i love froth)

vod if anyone wanna watch it: https://youtu.be/QWk8WrRp1O4

[olive zenith]

first r4 frenzy2 surface win!

[swift shore]

attack took out each chronos phase in seconds

[swift shore]

air quality moment

[gilded ravine]

yeet 54f surface mel flame

[regal shard]

Another

[split anvil]

damn, that last chronos phase is so rough, GG's

[thin stump]

Finally beat 32F Surface after many fails

[steep bramble]

That fight i am absolute butt at. Gotta keep practicing that, been focused on improving my sirens and cerb so now i can invest more time in it 🤠

[split anvil]

i havent even tried Vow Chronos or Typhoon myself, been putting it off 😂 but now i have a clear with every aspect i think thats next on my list

[eager pelican]

62F Artemis down 🗡️

[mighty wing]

spiteful strength at home

[gaunt elm]

was using strength, but pin saved this run! phased typhon with the countdown then turned into a little girl.

[lethal flicker]

Tried to deliberately make incandescent aura work for me, didn't do badly

[quiet cloak]

new pb eventually ill get the sub 5

[lyric mirage]

Glamour gain + nervous wreck are so good for big rooms

[hollow bane]

First ever sub 10 (and sub 9!) run

[tardy flame]

Big chop win let's goooo

[round imp]

Holy 727 hp

[thorn geyser]

My special went crazy here, especially with all of the Chaos boons

[mint bough]

In the name of Oblivion Override

I don't know if I can go beyond this

[wary fog]

almost 400k on the omega attack lol, finally finished every testament (dont look at damage taken on the blackened fleece)

[winged sigil]

I'm going to look at damage taken on the blackened fleece

OMG 😱😳

[eager hemlock]

anubis with chain lightning is so much fun lol + i got so much money and elements this run + double legendary lol

[eager hemlock]

warm breeze is funny

[split anvil]

Unrivaled Typhon done!! also wtf beach ball damage lmao?

[snow quiver]

is 32 fear underground much easier than 24 surface or have i just gotten very lucky?

[regal perch]

it can be I suppose

[snow quiver]

this is fist try while i failed 20 times going up

[regal perch]

I think they should be pretty even at this point though, given that olympus enemies got nerfed

If you're doing max Rivals then it's gonna be a struggle

[snow quiver]

dont even have rivals 4 unlocked

[regal perch]

I'd probably just stick to rivals 2 if you're just trying to get statues done

rivals 3 UW is reasonable as well, Rivals 3 SF is quite tough

[snow quiver]

yea cerberus is quite easy whle prometheus gives me problems on his own

[regal perch]

yeah prom is the first real wall in the game, I think

[inner lion]

air quality go brrr

[foggy viper]

Beeg xinth punches

[gilded ravine]

inching my way up (this did no damage btw, 4th phase typhon took a full minute) (also forced contingency for godsent on strength)

[undone mango]

holy duos, batman!

[gaunt elm]

okay I underestimated how fun rush builds could be! Also I forgot to change from Evil Eye (Prometheus) so it was doing absolutely nothing in that last fight.

[waxen forum]

why would you pin on strength 😭

[worthy carbon]

first typhon clear

i did not think that run would go good lol my hammers were incredibly questionable, I did not get possessed array once unfortunately but heinous affront saved the run

[gaunt elm]

first time I ever did it and it saved the run phased him during the countdown

[waxen forum]

yeah well pin disables strength so it lowers your effective hp

pin is negative synergy

[south monolith]

Pin disables the damage reduction strength gives you

[gaunt elm]

im aware of how it works

[near pelican]

Apollo + Shiva balls = crazy damage. Apollo + Lunar Ray = boss destroyer. Never have I beaten Typhon so quickly

[swift raft]

silly damage

[snow quiver]

finally 24 fear surface only took like 25 tries

[pliant tiger]

HOLY SUB 6 LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[noble ginkgo]

first win ever, charged special was doing sickening damage

[desert moon]

lightning soup

[terse lodge]

Finally, Unrivaled Typhon has fallen!
Now, it's Time to end Chronos himself.

[split anvil]

how did you ake 451 damage from traps wtf lmao

[dusty nexus]

i assume they were killing themselves with it for more last gasp

[nimble nimbus]

My first 62F. Charon Axe Underworld.
https://youtu.be/aZO4RZMxUqo

[winged sigil]

514 damage from chaos???!

what was the curse

[nimble nimbus]

Died by Chaos timer curse at Hecate 😅 for some reason the game counted 514 dmg even if I had something like 30 hp.

[split anvil]

Its cause the debuff Said you take 500 damage from chaos If you dont clear so it counted the 500

Also damn losing 3 DD at hecate and still clearing is sick

[nimble nimbus]

Renewed Faith is broken)

[vague pine]

Congrats!

[gaunt elm]

Just run into them!

[split anvil]

First 32 Fear run! First try (1 HP at Hecate and 4 HP after Sirens lmao)

[round imp]

Ayyy

[eager pendant]

Trying for fun 32f vor 4 with pan. Aimed for Hestia/Poseidon duo but didn't get.
Still doable but the pan's nerf is visible.

[eager pendant]

Also Supay with Hestia/Zeus is imho one of the strongest and the easiest way to get 32/vor 4 clear - no need anything, no mana/omega reliant/, a lot very powerful duo and you basically can put antyhing and it's still work.

[gaunt elm]

Thank you late King's Ransom for allowing me to just run around in circles

[worthy carbon]

First full heph run and 2nd clear for chronos, heph is so fun lmao

[pliant tiger]

a satisfying surface nergal run after grinding underworld speedruns

[split anvil]

24 Fear surface done, that was not a clean run though lol. Idk but somehow im not a fan of Nergal

[pliant tiger]

oh my god LETS GOOOOOOO 50 FEAR SURFACE

[gaunt elm]

NOT EVEN CLOSE! I was getting hit by everything during the end...

[pliant tiger]

double smolder ring gaming

[raven harbor]

Talk about a sustain build

[waxen forum]

splendid

[waxen forum]

you should use the oatk

[split anvil]

oatk?

[vague pine]

OAttack = Omega Attack

It’s shortened to save time, so…
OAttack = Omega Attack
OSpecial = Omega Special
OCast = Omega Cast

[split anvil]

oh lol, gtta try that more then. i wanted to play attack but gt offered epic aphro special so i figured i'd try a Ospecial run

[urban wigeon]

I thought this would be a dud run but the late hammer and then 200% for no boons brought it home

[lethal flicker]

Me: I wonder how good shiva is if I just kinda ignore its whole mechanic and use its basic attack:

[hollow bane]

first 32f clear with primed out in chronos p1, blitz hard carry in p2

[thorn geyser]

First time clearing Unrivaled Typhon, dear god I took so much damage in this run

[wary fog]

double legendaries for my first 32 fear surface clear god i love morrigan so much this aspect is insanely fun

[pliant tiger]

starting my 48 fear challenge run for all aspects and regions, starting with mel staff underworld, next up is circe surface (this is gonna be hell to complete)

[wary fog]

rivals chronos beaten 2nd attempt, pyro technique went crazy

[lethal flicker]

The holy thrasher trinity, improved by Icarus

[eager pendant]

Meliblade is my new funny yet op build to go.

[cedar basin]

Today I beat all weapons at 38 Fear

[tulip hamlet]

eeeey first ever win

[runic oyster]

first time beating typhon, lost 2 dds before him but i didnt even lose any dds to typhon himself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2nd time getting to him (i havent played h2 much lowk)

this build is probably ass but idegaf i was so convinced i was cooked

[lusty slate]

||the blast and heartthrob combo completely nuked heracles during prom's first phase shift, fasted i've ever killed him. and the only damage i took against typhon was in baby phase thanks to dodge and sheer damage output||

[wary fog]

rivals typhon down, 2nd attempt again lol

[worthy carbon]

first blades clear, pretty fun build

[hollow bane]

and thats all 3 statues done

[drowsy osprey]

Almost managed to keep a dress to the end, next time ig

[hallow obsidian]

Alright Supergiant, you know how to cook up a challenge… this trial is the most fun I’ve had with H2 yet! Now, onto the Great Chaos Below… wish me luck!

[nimble saddle]

This is the first time I have allowed Eris to curse me and still gotten the Night 1 clear!

I only let her bless me in Tartarus, but still! I never thought I would get to this point.

[desert moon]

hitch...soup...? surprisingly pretty effective at one-shotting most enemies, though it definitely took a back seat for the boss fights

[thorn geyser]

Wow, best cast build I've ever had

[brisk void]

My third time beating Chronos, with an Hera/Aphrodite build. Sorry up for the french text

[desert moon]

sparkle soup! turns out there actually is a use case for reckless abandon

[brisk void]

How the hell did you get so many Heroic boons?

[desert moon]

Passion Rush: rarified with keepsake
Stutter Step: rarified with Phial
everything else: rarified by Steady Growth

[lethal flicker]

Fun Fact, you can still get steady growth to rarify itself it it's the only valid option for doing so

[brisk void]

Wow.

[winter garden]

2nd time beating him!! havent played in like 3 months at this point lmao

[charred karma]

This build really came together nicely
Is 50 fear underworld that good btw?
I have a feeling I was just running around like a chicken with its head cut off.

[magic wind]

booya!

[rough jungle]

all the buos

[slate matrix]

bah 2nd run after not playing for like 3 weeks

classic 50, no rivals. This old boomer still got it ig

[cursive yoke]

spin to win

[wary fog]

hammermaxxing

[desert moon]

ice soup. really wanted to get the damage over Air Quality's minimum but it just wasn't happening

[gilded ravine]

some runs had the most miserable rooms i've ever had but damn it was still fun to beat lmao

[brisk void]

.......how? Just, how?

[rough jungle]

Im just that good

Or lucky🤔

[drowsy osprey]

Ayyy finally a win thats not with the skull

[radiant sand]

Beat unrivaled typhon for the first time and then I did it again right after. Now for granddad and 32 fear …

[pliant tiger]

finally, circe 48 fear surface in the bag, 48 fear momus underworld next

[desert moon]

found a way to make the Morrigan special do something (but yeah Sinister Pinion really should just be basekit)

[gentle swan]

yes i got my first frenzy 2 run sucsess

[hollow bane]

had the most egregious set up for king's ransom, but Zeus decided to not show up

[vocal delta]

My best time continues to be standard issue Xinth, really just all about how lucky I get with Zeus boons (still picking Poseidon keepsake because it's the best spam attack)

[desert moon]

knife soup! had to force both Apollo and Hephaestus but somehow I was still able to rarify Stutter Step going into Summit lol

[eternal magnet]

sooo satisfying with nergal

[dark flare]

Apollo Lunar Beam carried ngl

[wary fog]

maybe ares isnt as washed as i thought!? fun run trying to stack attack speed on mel torches

[brisk void]

Beat Chronos for the 4th time, with a Demeter/Hera/Aphrodite build

[wary fog]

aphro nyx special build that worked bizarrely well lmao

[noble ginkgo]

🤠

[lethal flicker]

VERY WORRIED

[noble ginkgo]

i wasnt worried :)

ignorance is bliss

😇

[pliant tiger]

3/48 done, next up is anubis surface

[blissful tundra]

Well I was hoping my next 62f surface clear would be without Black Night Banishment and definitely it not hitting Pain again but oh well 🙁

At least Eos got a surface 62 this patch now, and I found out that embryo can give you Chant

https://youtu.be/zw0egaF_-J0

[cedar iris]

first try back to back, no where else but up

[trim stratus]

50 Fear Surface Run with Rivals 4 cleared on Mel Coat. How do you like that Typhon?

[dark flare]

Man I wish I had that Legendary, it's so annoying picking up Plasma

[nimble nimbus]

59f Eos Surface.
https://youtu.be/w76yLjyyNaU

[lethal flicker]

Pay no attention to my hp, look, 6 duos!

[desert moon]

Air Quality on most weapons: okay, maybe some extra cast or rush damage
Air Quality on Anubis: press X to make Typhon go poof

[swift shore]

run was going pretty well throughout, then got Static Shock, Air Quality, All Together, and Nervous Wreck all in summit lmao

tenacity and brutality helped too

[desert moon]

oh yeah I meant to post water soup. tbh I think Stabbing Rush kinda clears Breaker Rush for Supay except at high fear, it's just that Poseidon has the damage way more frontloaded which is why it's the high-fear meta

[carmine elm]

https://i.imgur.com/2Zu3YXl.png

non special just a disappointment

[woven flicker]

Lol, thats why i love that boon

[pearl gyro]

The victory I WOULD have had that I was speaking of in #h2-tech-support message before Chronos seemingly rewound time and crashed my game

[dark flare]

All I needed to win, didn't even use my Moon Water

[paper fjord]

:)

i took quite a break from the game, so I almost threw an unlosable run to rivals chronos, but I got there in the end

[waxen nimbus]

Nyx, you just gunna leave me hanging? I've done your will. Where's my reward? Nyx??

[winged sigil]

the real reward was the experience of 48 high fear runs 🥰

[desert moon]

the last (serious) Supay run: fire soup! Hestia's legendary is so funny btw like wdym Smolder Ring is the ONLY core boon that works as a prereq

[desert moon]

and just for fun...one-day blinding soup

[raven harbor]

FINALLY GOT RIVAL TYPHOON DOWN, LETS GOOO

[wanton token]

wanted to see if i could defeat chronos with an arachne outfit intact and somehow got it on the first try, now to try the same thing on rivals 4!

[ripe seal]

Aspect of Nergal 62f Underworld clear

The humble Tough Gain makes its mark at 62 and I finally get a non-crutch 62 clear. Will record an overexplain run over this footage for Youtube.

[pearl gyro]

FOR REAL THIS TIME

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/777204745114091550/1416313602536636436/20250913143913_1.jpg?ex=68c66454&is=68c512d4&hm=7c1741b0cb679e2115fd558a3f5f523ed221a17a66edd9af3d7a7613c966f526&=&format=webp&width=1522&height=856

NOW I AM NIGHT'S CHAMPION

[wary fog]

having fun with trick knives for the (hopefully) limited time theyre this insane lol

[pliant tiger]

man im ass with tk, couldnt get it out half the time cuz i have no idea how to dash strike consistently

[lone venture]

poseidon anubis was a pretty good pick for my first run in a month but god the chronos damage was not good

[sage marlin]

i got 2 heph blast effects to 1 second and it was awesome (please ignore the fact that i lost all my dds)

[reef cobalt]

(1.48 seconds)

the boon was never designed to display decimals cause the CD reduction boon didn't exist, so it just rounds down visually

[desert moon]

moving on from soup runs to...well there's not really a funny nickname for Circe runs but here's Storm Ring

[paper fjord]

circus?

[slender sun]

okay so this is 0 fear so it's not that impressive (i did best a best time but eh)

but the aphro attack LMAO. it started as epic hera attack, then did queen's ransom, then did double your highest level from echo, then got a sacrifice for aphro LOL

[desert moon]

King's/Queen's Gambit into a sacrifice sounds like a really fun build to go for, I gotta try that

[slender sun]

it was completely unintentional too on all fronts. it just Happened Like That LMAO

also OOPS I said gambit instead of ransom mb

[pliant tiger]

practice for 48 fear anubis surface for tomorrow, i understand it now

[wary fog]

new fear pb!! using my favourite build in the game, gust supay (didnt even get tropical cyclone lol)

[twilit python]

Think I almost did a hitless Typhon /s

[sleek brook]

Surely it has already been showcased, but I found this "cast and win" build, was a lot of fun !

[hollow gorge]

Managed to get all the Arcana active for the first time due to Judgement?

[reef cobalt]

missing lovers?

[desert moon]

Circe + Hera...whoops never mind I got the god omega cast build ig

[gilded ravine]

yum

[pearl gyro]

Rivals Typhon DEFEATED! And I didn't even know how much HP I had during the entire fight

[regal perch]

worry free goes hard

[wary fog]

holy omega special

[woven flicker]

Hoooly wtf… you could have kept doing that forever lol

[tardy flame]

No Uncommon Grace, Artemis or Snuffed Candle and couldn't activate Rallying Cry or Tall Order but I think I did well enough

[slender sun]

TIL chant is a thing????? how have i never run into that before?

[gilded ravine]

ye it's a chaos infusion, tho it's still classified under a "rarity" so it's not as apparent

[winged sigil]

it's super rare unless you specifically aim for it, i have yet to naturally get it at ~200 night played

[worthy carbon]

INCREDIBLY fun build lol

[lethal flicker]

starting the fear climb, nice

[regal agate]

Question: does cut above work the same way as explosive intent for pan knives? Was hard to tell if it multi triggered with the amount of flashy effects happening all at once, so fast

On another note, I never got king tide, and probably am just not lucky enough for it, but I got a pretty good run with knives that felt more like rocket missiles. OSpecial, Wolfhowl (counts as idle enough for tranquil gain), rinse and repeat

[brisk void]

I admit I only beat Chronos with 1 Fear, and I'm barely starting with 2.

[soft flume]

personal best!

[desert moon]

rng loved me today

(btw TIL flood gain does not care if you "lose" magick which is yet another reason "losing" magick is dumb)

[reef cobalt]

on the other hand, flood gain is infinite double attack staff

[cinder sphinx]

I finally beat Thyphon!!!!!!!!!!!!! After so many damn attempts

[real shore]

first chronos kill

[dawn zenith]

Idk where else to say this, but WHAT. You defeat Typhon and Chronos on the surface and they TURN U INTO A KID N KILL U

[regal perch]

yea

[dawn zenith]

Yeah??? omfg that pact stuff is whooping my butt bruh omfg

Eugh, I mean it caught me off guard but just wow, ok screw me then i guess

[worthy carbon]

First axe clear, not bad at all

[kind kayak]

I really like duo boons

[gilded ravine]

chaos stopped me from getting burning desire

[cobalt citrus]

decorative born gain

[soft flume]

just a casual run. spawn of typhon truly is the true final boss

no prometheus on the board this time

no hand of hera </3

[wary fog]

pretty average cast build but an anvil at the end and a random apollo legendary that showed up had my omega attack firing like 6 times and doing 1.6k damage total with every pop

[lethal flicker]

should be 4 times

[paper fjord]

going to try to build back up to 50 fear before the month ends 🫡

[rose pawn]

Wait what? I didn’t see Chronos on surface?

[lethal flicker]

Not yet you haven't

[dawn zenith]

Spoilers I guess sorry, it's his Vow battle

If you don't know, or haven't gotten there yet, bosses get harder if u make a vow before a run. Typhon then decides to crap on you and laugh

[rose pawn]

Is that part of the Oath of the Unseen? I only played with it a little. Was gonna wait until release

(Sorry, I stopped playing to wait for release and only did one more just to see what’s left on the surface. Somehow managed to get Typhon on the first try and then the run ended). Didn’t think about the vows lol.

[lethal flicker]

yeah, that

[pliant tiger]

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FINALLY, 48 FEAR MEL BLADES UNDERWORLD NEXT

[keen cliff]

My first 32 fear 🙌 it's not amazing but I'm pretty happy hehehe

[waxen forum]

All aspects 32f love to see it

[slender sun]

7 minutes??????

my lowest is like 14 minutes 😭

[desert moon]

waiter! waiter! more magick spend builds please

[lethal flicker]

Solar Ray is just absurd if you got fully into it

[lethal flicker]

Local goddess sends in the boys to do her dirty work:

[dawn zenith]

Wait how? /gen

[regal perch]

rivals typhon can summon yarg

[dawn zenith]

Not that, double enemy summon for player. Should've been more specific

[reef cobalt]

night bloom

sun worshipper

charm aphrox hera duo boon

you can theoretiaclly ahve 3

[dawn zenith]

That's cracked

[lethal flicker]

Me: "I'll use artemis and build into ta big omega attack based crit build"
The Game: "You will make a cast-based build and like it"

(There's even wicked onslaught and slow cooker adding 40 power, but noooooo)

[lethal flicker]

Yeah. One was night bloom upgraded with servitude. Other was sun worshipper

Doesn't matter that the only enemy I'd killed got revived with sun worshipper. Night bloom can still make a copy

[gilded ravine]

nom

[waxen forum]

not that impressive, could have been sub 6:50 with better luck

[waxen forum]

they do so much damage lol, i had a sun worshipper servant do 3k damage every hit, geniunely baffled me

[regal bear]

back at it after a long break. thankfully by the time i actually made it past the poison cyclops and saw what the new prometheus fight is I was dealing thousands of dps

[hollow sentinel]

Everything is moving in slow motion on 0 Frenzy after a year and a half of having at least 20%.

[halcyon verge]

beat 32 fear underworld tonight, which is monumental to me considering that i used to have 45 min hades 1 runs where i didn't even know about privileged status and would literally do run-in, run-out chip tactics for entire bossfights. also the aspect of anubis is ridiculous

[rare parcel]

First victory, woo!

[winter garden]

not the best run but i wanted to show the amount of money i got

[dawn zenith]

Love anubis staff it's awesome. Omega damage plus assist damage

Congrats though, the surface 24 and underworld 32 is my next goal

[dawn zenith]

Awesome

[halcyon verge]

good luck!! i felt surface 24 was honestly harder, but that might be my prometheus-shaped skill issue speaking. anubis is definitely a good pick!!

[dawn zenith]

My unsolicited advice with Prometheus is just avoid him as much as possible and just heckle Hades until he's defeated, if you can. With the anubis aspect it makes it disgustingly easy imo.

I'm going up there with Lim n Oros with the aspect of the morrigan, so i may be getting destroyed for a while

[halcyon verge]

super fun aspect, one that looks so fluid when you get a good build. hope you get it first try💪

[rare parcel]

And now a second one?

[celest sluice]

finally!!!!!

[orchid plover]

only got 30 mins left for lunch time. glad i made it before 1 pm lol

[wary fog]

supay so goated it doesnt even need a damaging rush boon. very fun build 10/10 can recommend

[lethal flicker]

And exceptionall talent doesn't even work on specials but hey!

[night stratus]

Best Run I had, I had plenty of heals, 24 nightmare and it is on God Mode

[dawn zenith]

Yuh thx u for that. Definitely using Toula as a crutch but once I get used to these beat downs and dodging Typhon, I'll be getting Raki again

[winged sigil]

you got this

[round imp]

Not really a win (won't be for a very very long time) Imminent massive burnout, I can feel it

[pliant tiger]

another 48 fear anubis surface win cuz i accidentally deleted my gameplay footage for the previous win i had, this time i didnt delete the footage

[night stratus]

@winged sigil

[winged sigil]

yeah i saw it, congrats 👍

[floral sun]

Geyser Spout and Circe Staff my beloved

[keen plover]

I now only require 3 more victories upon the Surface.
I have 8 days left to achieve these goals before v1.0 sends me back to square one on these last two high-priority items.

[naive lake]

Teehee

[keen plover]

The first of many.

[wild adder]

Greater Chaos Above done.. finally. It's particularly enjoyable to have played well enough to never be hit by Prometheus.

[serene breach]

Had a real blessèd run: used 6/7 effective DDs, and this build worked very nicely for me, got up to Typhon and smacked him down first time 😅

[lone venture]

posting this exclusively out of spite at athena for scamming me after a bad r3 (actually in general this build just kind of sucked would not recommend)

[dawn zenith]

Second try, but it's done, will send screenshot later

I will be attempting the underworld later tonight or tomorrow

[static cloud]

||Vow of Rivals|| Typhon ||and chronos|| with 16heat :0

[dawn zenith]

Still not good enough to do these Vows without a crutch right now, but I'll get to that level soon. the 32 underworld run is whooping me though omg. I died to Hecate on the first run, got to the Fields of Mourning, died, then got to the Sirens barely, died there, got to Cerberus barely, died, then got to Chronos actually decently, and got plowed awfully.

So gonna take a break it's midnight, will try again another time.

[worthy carbon]

first coat clear, really fun lance of ares build

[sleek brook]

That's a 32 fear underworld done ! Kinda frustrated on how I've specifically catered an excellent roster (Apollo & Zeus in Erebus, Hephaestus & Demeter in Oceanus) and couldn't get any duo or abuse demeter's gust.
Man, the early is rough will all the new conditions I didn't put at first.

(Also, I do realize now how supremely slow i was lmao)

[novel stream]

First time since I started playing! Still a total noob but it feels good to defeat Chronos first try

[wary fog]

pretty average run besides the fact that i misclicked in the final fountain room and took the gold purse instead of the pin

[obsidian crescent]

can you imagine if the summon could kill Typhon here?
anywho

[paper fjord]

trying to get back to 50 on rivals. Im not looking forward to needing to add vow of pain...

[pliant tiger]

eos gaming

[pliant tiger]

funniest run ive had in a while, everything got killed in like 5-10 seconds, got hit by proms memory phase like three times, and the cherry on top is this is a 32 fear surface time pb

[gilded ravine]

splash meta

[lethal flicker]

Accidentally stumbled into an example Incandescent aura build, but honestly it was just hitch doing all the work here

[iron nebula]

sea of red... xD

[solemn meteor]

first olympus win and 4th win overall. hestia and aphro's duo boon is crazy

[solemn meteor]

very next run was a win too

[thorn geyser]

While I may have beat this run, it was a total mess, I think I used at least 9 Death Defiances this run

[sleek brook]

The famous "I don't want to play the game myself" run

[scenic ice]

wtf i became torchespilled AND hephpilled in the same run what gives

p much no fear but we're ignoring that part

[desert moon]

somehow I forgot to pin Howling Soul on the victory screen but it combos so well with the 4x O-special build

[maiden crest]

beat typhon for my 2nd ever time on 16 fear, think i did decently well

[tardy flame]

Couldn't get Success Rate or Premium Service so I think I can do more damage but a win is a win

[floral sun]

So close to dying

[pliant tiger]

supay is still broken and funny to play with

[lethal flicker]

Accidentally did a power surge/Incandesent Aura build

spend mana for free damage, gain mana for free damage

[reef cobalt]

single handily bringing the stats up on the boon so it doesn't get buffed 😔

[lethal flicker]

Nah, that's this one

kinda wish Scorch was also a valid proc curse but we can't have everything

[lethal flicker]

Or were you talking about power surge?

[reef cobalt]

power surge ye

[lethal flicker]

I have newer comments about it, but #h2-builds-and-combat

[desert moon]

Circe + Poseidon! Winner's Circle is such a must-have for this

[pliant tiger]

easiest game ive ever played, promised myself not to do high fear till exams are over but here it is, sub 14:30 48 fear medea surface (didnt record this run but i dont care, ill do it again)

[pliant hull]

Finally did 50 fear, almost died

[upbeat tangle]

Hubrised myself into a manaless build and rendered half my boons completely useless for my first 24-fear Surface win. Felt like a total throwback to an Aspect of Zagreus flail build

[thorn geyser]

Moon water is just so OP, I don't think I've ever lost a run where I've had it

[thorn knot]

finally did it , that was so hard man

[rare parcel]

First Surface victory

[magic osprey]

First time running Persephone and maining Heph. Fell in love

[trim stratus]

50 Fear Below Clear with Rivals 4 on Mel Coat. I have now done 50 Fear Surface and 50 Fear Below. And since I have already 100% the entirety of the final patch before 1.0 (including buying all cosmetics, upgrading everything that can be upgraded, getting all affinity raised as high as it can, completing the currently completable cauldron and prophecies, getting all the music, and getting all romance scenes), I have truly conquered Time.

[rare parcel]

And a second Typhon victory, woo!

[wicked mantle]

Finally, my first Typhon victory!

[wary fog]

TIL heinous affront works with unseen ire. pretty fun interaction

[gilded ravine]

4k froth dmg carried the game

[wary fog]

managed to make the coat omega special fun (also a rare solar ring somehow did 23k?? huh???)

[mystic marten]

first time using morrigan

[pliant tiger]

supay is still broken, i love it

[keen plover]

Looks to the Fated List of minor Prophecies.
Checks the required reagents for the Incantation to unlock the fullest power of the Vow of Rivals

Looks like I'm long overdue to go Axe Typhon some questions.

[crude sentinel]

this was an interesting build. absolutely melted groups of mobs, of course, but surprisingly not bad against the bosses either.

[marsh yoke]

I think I may have found my favorite supay build. Absolutely bonkers

[winged sigil]

62 with nyx

[maiden crest]

tried the kamehameha build for the first time, wouldve been so much better if i got the athena +3

[halcyon verge]

charon fun run turned into genuinely eviscerating typhon. the legendary was a beautiful pickup. it never stops being funny.

[regal shard]

Got 62 after 2 weeks of not playing

[vocal gazelle]

First surface clear (46 hrs)

[dawn zenith]

I cheesed I know but idgaf I finally did it

Took forever, I went from 172 nights to 190 something and I'm only disappointed I didn't change my weapon before

[thorn geyser]

First time doing a run with the Moros aspect, I think I've been underestimating it bit

[rare parcel]

First time using Aspect of Charon. Pretty funny!

[rare parcel]

Uhhh I still don't know how to use the Sproute bit well lol

[rare parcel]

I did not use the Riposte as much as I'd have liked (and Burning Desire would certainly have been cool here...)

[regal shard]

yay

[vocal delta]

Under 7 minutes (with Xinth!), who needs a meta. Top 30 let's goooo
Also I think it might be the fastest Black Coat time period?
https://www.speedrun.com/hades2

[vocal delta]

World Record Coat clear at 6m52s unless I'm being silly not seeing another player's coat run https://www.speedrun.com/hades2/runs/yw5eqvny

[sage rain]

Fresh file clear first try, with the Eris boon from oceanus!

save file as proof

[lethal flicker]

Posessed array damage somehow counts as just regular attack damage on the stat screen, so we have this monstrosity

[pliant tiger]

unintentionally got heras legendary and almost got all of the infusion boons for this 40 fear medea fun run (frosty veneer, rallying cry, and chant missing)

[crude sentinel]

this was just funny

[rare parcel]

First time using Supay, it is hilarious

[maiden crest]

hex builds are so fun

[raw wren]

Who needs an attack anyway

[worthy carbon]

heh starting the fear climb 😼

[versed lava]

could definitely do faster but this was nice for a casual rush

[rare parcel]

I'm getting Supay pilled

[worthy carbon]

:D

(mostly) ray only 🥲

[void dock]

FIRST WIN

[lethal flicker]

Huh, Snuffed Candle gets translated into Savage Duel in French? strange

[lethal flicker]

BLOOD, WE NEED MORE BLOOD

[sharp bone]

I didn’t take a picture of my build 😩 but I finally beat chronos last night!

[random stag]

my luckiest Charon run b4 launch

[regal bear]

TAKE THAT CHRONOS YOU CHEATING SOB

[wanton pelican]

well fed mel

[coarse bronze]

first time trying aspect of circle. It was fun, although maybe aspect of charon would have been better for this build I got

[drowsy osprey]

Ayyyy finally, my skill issue managed to beat tygone

[stone aspen]

32 FEAR win!!! highlighted arcana in image 2 are from pig in stage 1. Ygnium is really good, especially with on omega effects and hestia mana.

it took me until like, cerberus to get an attack boon and that hurt, but wave strike was the exact attack boon I wanted. Honestly it was kinda an inverse difficulty, I lost all my DDs by the end of area 2, but didn't lose any in 3 and 4 after athena refilled me

[fluid quest]

1hp

gonna take a break until 1.0

[solemn meteor]

second olympus win. went from 0 to 8 fear

[crude sentinel]

good charon builds just hit right

[keen plover]

And now, I am ready for Friday.
I have used the Zodiac Sands and Void Lenses for all I needed them for,

Most must pray for the chance to make a brighter future.
Now, I merely wait.

[sweet shoal]

I didnt take a screenshot but I just beat the surface for the first time!

[gilded ravine]

infusion central

[rare parcel]

Well, no exactly how I was expecting to use Aspect of Momus, but I had no plan with Aspect of Momus for starters so eh, sure!

[gilded ravine]

once again i am ignoring the aspect

[rare parcel]

Frigid Rush + Air Quality + Creation from Chaos... That was hilarious

[wanton pelican]

ayy we just had the same run

new fear pb, supay + static shock + air quality, with 33% dodge chance from aphro infusion and 3 hammers on specials

even down to the epic creation from chaos

[rare parcel]

[zinc oracle]

wanted to celebrate maxing every single keepsake before 1.0 launch, since I never maxed all my H1 keepsakes. this is a victory boast of a kind, right?

while i'm here: freaking love abusing hexes to get kills on Rivals Chronos. if Supergiant sold a #1 HEX ABUSER t-shirt I'd buy it

[fringe rivet]

boutta get that done too, congrats on the hard work, hope i can get it til release 🙏

[zinc oracle]

I believe in you! And don't be afraid to abuse Chaos Trials for the keepsakes you just hate running (LOOKING AT YOU DISCORDANT BELL)

[fringe rivet]

just finished the first run with discordant bell, chose up path and got railed by typhon a few attacks before killing him, its crazy 😭

[zinc oracle]

I had a Typhon fight that ended in similar tragedy 😭 what feels somehow even worse for me is when you don't play your life on the way up, even though you know the run is dead and you're not killing Typhon, so you die to Twins or some crap like that and your Evil Eye is screwed until you throw another run at Typhon 😭 that's on my list of things to do before launch lol

just make it up to Typhon and then go brew a cup of tea while he kills me so I'm ready to push Olympus 24 Fear with Rivals on LOLLLL

[fringe rivet]

typed a whole ahh paragraph and im not supposed to swear, thats on me i guess

anyway thanks on the evil eye idea i totally forgot about that keepsake

[zinc oracle]

I slept on Evil Eye for, no joke, 115 or so runs lol

[slender sun]

my evil eye is also on typhon rn

[fringe rivet]

slept on most helpful things my whole save file 😭

[zinc oracle]

But then like, 98 or so of those runs were before Typhon existed and I oneshot Prometheus when he came out so I was kinda like "lol why does this exist"

it turns out

the 65k health monstrosity is why it exists

[fringe rivet]

65k?????????

daaaamn thats crazy

[zinc oracle]

That number is a slight butt pull but I think I saw that on the wiki? That might be Rivals health

I remember going "BRO WTF THATS MORE HEALTH THAN EM4 HADES" at the time

Lol, no I remembered right, 65k is the correct number for non-Rivals

[fringe rivet]

didnt get the rivals yet on that stage, cant wait, number still sounds crazy af

god i gotta play a lot of this masterpiece, cant wait to get done w the errands so i can rest my sould and run full fear runs

[zinc oracle]

I'm not in the spoiling business but Rivals Typhon made me go "WHAT!!! WHAT???! WHAT!!!!" multiple times LOL

You'll enjoy the heck out of it

[fringe rivet]

sounds like such good gontent 😩

[zinc oracle]

and I'm no slouch; Scylla and Typhon were the only Rivals bosses I didn't oneshot. like. ish is absolutely crazy*

[fringe rivet]

scylla rival fight was sooooo good now that you mentioned it

[zinc oracle]

I made this and posted it to Reddit almost a year ago so you can imagine how I felt upon loading into Rivals Scylla

[fringe rivet]

goddamn here talking about oneshots, my bad for typing into your chat

[fringe rivet]

so real 😭

[zinc oracle]

this was pre-nerf when Chary took two DD's off me each time, minimum

[fringe rivet]

hell nah hes been nerfed? crazy

[zinc oracle]

oh yeah like a year ago LOL

[fringe rivet]

just got the game in like july so

[fringe rivet]

damn

[zinc oracle]

I'm a day 1 EA player lol it's been an amazing ride

[fringe rivet]

i just thought id wait for release but god could i be patient

[zinc oracle]

"hell yeah new Hades 2 update lemme play it!" (puts in thirty hours) (sets it aside)

rinse and repeat for 2 years until release date is announced at which point hype reaches critical mass

[fringe rivet]

shouldve went for it earlier

but still really thankful i did get the ea

[zinc oracle]

BACK in MY DAY there was JUST the UNDERWORLD and POLYPHEMUS and ERIS. And WE WERE GRATEFUL

[fringe rivet]

eris does feel like a final boss sometimes ngl

nah im trippin she gets easier like 3rd 4th try mb

[fringe rivet]

was that day 1 EA tho??

cuz damn thats good content

[zinc oracle]

I double checked and yeah the first patch talks about adjusting the drops on the Thessaly

[slender sun]

i started playing july 2024, it’s been a ride lol

[fringe rivet]

goddamn yall ogs

[slender sun]

also we may wanna switch to #h2-discussion

[fringe rivet]

i just kept playing hades waiting to get closer to release 😭

[rare parcel]

Finally, first victory with Black Coat

[slender sun]

gg!!!

[zinc oracle]

everyone please welcome our newest acolyte to the Church of Xinth with a hearty and warm "gg"

[normal tulip]

@zinc oracle about over-grasping... #h2-discussion message

I used circe's keepsake and unlocked judgement right after polyphemus boss, drew an unused arcana card from circe in thessaly, then over the course of the run unlocked everything else hahaha

it was very silly

[kind kayak]

I really like this machine gun build man

[uncut flax]

I kinda have the same problem with 32 fear Chronos, they told me to get his rivals down, (cuz I did 24 Typhoon with R4) and he still beats my ahh

[pliant tiger]

fastest 32 fear underworld yet, took stalwart for safety cuz scars 3

[pliant tiger]

my vows (no rivals cuz they take too much time)

also accidentally sold an epic vital signs

[glacial storm]

holy fast. GG

[pliant tiger]

im too lazy to submit it to the speedrun leaderboards, ill do another run when 1.0 releases

[ionic magnet]

Love it when all of the arcana come together. Also one of my favourite builds I've gotten

[rare parcel]

Ohhhhhh, that one was fun

[compact monolith]

No screenshot for it but man I just had some INSANE luck in the underworld victory. One of the last tasks I had left was getting all of Chaos’ boons and I just COULD NOT get it to show up no matter how many runs I had found him with infusions.

But I had his trinket, and I beat cronos, and his trinket changed one final time into the one I needed!! So after 100+ nights I finally got it.

[slender sun]

(chaos uses they/them btw)

[zinc oracle]

#1 omega attack enjoyer

[runic oyster]

maybe not the greatest time, but almost exactly 2 minutes faster than my hades 1 pb

[worthy carbon]

Does apollo feel good on aom coat? im thinking of trying it next on typhon

tried to do legendary apollo aspect of eos here but on my last apollo boon he wouldnt give me the legendary 💔

[runic oyster]

16 fear

[solemn meteor]

yea hestia+demeter and hestia+aphro boons are crazy with aspect of moros

(3rd olympus win and highest fear yet)

[tiny pewter]

one last run before release

[hollow stream]

today's victories

[maiden fox]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1237306365912023050/1420268499795968091/image.png?ex=68d4c79d&is=68d3761d&hm=d62183e36abba3046dcd862cc6b7ae28cf7cfa035b371c7038ec086659cc3b9d&

new fastest run :P

[gentle swan]

last run before 1.0 for me

[pliant tiger]

first max vow of void win, still kept arachnes dress, second pic is proof

[pliant tiger]

all my usual vows with no rivals, had the JUICIEST kings ransom setup ready yet the damn game didnt give me jack

[solar seal]

my last chronos fight before 1.0! did a little nergal funrun, first time i managed to successfully do his instakill skip in phase 2. slightly messy fight but ya know, you cant win em all

[wanton pelican]

new fear pb. i'm not getting tired of supay + static shock + air quality, very head empty, very fun, and definitely enough damage, no omegas necessary tbh (therefore no mouse necessary with the supay auto attacks). rare nitro boost was huge sustain since i took vows for -50% healing. I got offered romantic spark twice but took epic spiritual affirmation and +24% dodge chance wispy wiles for defense. im probably underestimating how much more damage/faster typhon phasing/"best defense is good offense" RS might have been but a win is a win

[rare parcel]

Air Quality Supay is just hysterical lmao

[wanton pelican]

yeah the base damage on supay is toothpicks AQ is a giant multiplier

also got two of my favorite hammers on supay/torches in general, hidden helix +1 special projectile and dividing blaze. lotta projectiles hitting for the AQ 50

[pliant tiger]

wait did u use vow of forfeit cuz that feels bad with supay

[wanton pelican]

forfeit is onion right?

[pliant tiger]

yes

[wanton pelican]

yeah i did, i rerolled door to location 2 and got my actual zeus boon first try

[pliant tiger]

lucky

[wanton pelican]

i left ephyra with 45 sec to go, had 2ish mins after eris, and prob the same after prom

i'm willing to spend hella rerolls to get zeus asap bc yeah supay needs the boons fast or else timer is sus

[pliant tiger]

can confirm, i had like a minute spent on a single ephyra room cuz supay damage without boons feels like ass

[wanton pelican]

with keepsake it shouldn't be too hard to get it on location 2, since im pretty sure that door can only be gods (hermes included) and hammer with vow of forfeit

[pliant tiger]

poms can be on door 2

[wanton pelican]

pom can also be there but youd need a boon, which forfeit takes

[pliant tiger]

yeah

[wanton pelican]

but yeah i just got blitz static shock aq, took aphro keepsake in thessaly for more air elements, spiritual affirmation and wiles fishing then spent all brain power in locations on dodging/shooting my freeze cast

[pliant tiger]

yk what when i roll credits on hades 2 ill go try 50 fear supay surface again

highest was like 48 no forfeit

[wanton pelican]

if you have good micro (which i absolutely dont im a freeze cast merchant lmaoo) then yeah static shock aq feels like enough damage to solve forfeit, if u can land scorch/poseidon waves on attack thats nice to have. i don't really like using denial since there's so many good zeus boons

[pliant tiger]

for that run i did poseidon sprint with thermal d, i remember rarifying an arc flash to heroic just for that to be useless since 1. i primed out of magick and 2. no magick regen lmao

[wanton pelican]

ah interesting

i was eligible for Thermal D and got scammed :((, but yeah the non omega auto projectiles put out pretty great damage on their own (once supported/AQ) and are way safer since no charge necessary.

[pliant tiger]

true

[wanton pelican]

aphro magick regen was great for the weak effect

[pliant tiger]

wait i stand corrected i got heras special, no thermal d at all my bad

[wanton pelican]

holy rush damage

[pliant tiger]

the strat was hera will remove wards and give ripoff aoe while breaker rush will be the main damage dealer and blitz was just more damage

hera makes wards go bye bye its so good

[wanton pelican]

yeah either her or static shock for wards feels great

with static shock specifically i could feel my entire run get 50% faster it was crazy

id have liked hera for kings ransom purposes on my run

[pliant tiger]

i think ill try to go for the same strat for my 50 fear supay, alternative is to go heat rush and find thermal d

[wanton pelican]

good luck once you do it!

[pliant tiger]

thanks

[wide saffron]

First Vow of Rivals final tier victory at surface!

[supple pebble]

First time playing since before Warsong, decided to go for a spin before 1.0 tomorrow and beat the Father of All Monsters at least once in Early Access.

[slender sun]

I love success rate on ares builds

[wraith igloo]

I think the devs or mods need to come in here and boast about the reviews they’re getting today. Bravo to the studio and happy launch tomorrow!

[vagrant flower]

Most fun run I think I ever had and my record run too I think

[high hare]

🙏

[paper fjord]

redid my 50 on momus in prep for launch

(please ignore the 1100 dmg taken from chronos)

[urban yew]

OH NOOOOOOOOO, yeah have to admit that rivals fith is kinda a clusterfuck.

[urban yew]

think this was my fastest run.

[rare parcel]

Last run before 1.0. Romantic Spark triggering Blitz + Thermal Dynamics is a bit insane

[slender sun]

hell yeah gg!

[manic relic]

last run of EA before 1.0. got unlucky but it was still very fun

[hybrid folio]

First win guys. who'd I do?

[fossil laurel]

One last hurrah(presumably )for busted Storm Ring

[thorn geyser]

I really didn't like this run, the game gives me every single curse that makes the game slower, and then a 7 minute timer

[open berry]

Finally got a 62 fear clear with circe thanks to last shop king ransom lol

[lofty oriole]

32F everything before early access 🙏

[nimble saddle]

I only started trying for speed a few days before 1.0 because my timing is awful, but here is my fastest Night 1 clear of Early Access. I had 4 Duos, none of which was Beach Ball, but I did have +40% Hearty Appetite!

[sleek brook]

That was some modifiers alright (Thanks, Vow of Hubris, I like not having magicka in early with momus)

[rugged mason]

First time ^^

[pliant tiger]

my last ea runs with an ass surface speedrun (accidentally left vow of shadow on) and a decent mel blades tk thermal d build

[signal saddle]

"I beat 32F the day the game came out, you can do better" 🤣

[wanton pelican]

Do you remember your hel build? Im struggling real bad

/would like poseidon attack static shock air quality + blitz specials be enough? Maybe get Hestia for steam/thermal d

[pliant tiger]

high fear hel runs from what ive seen use hestia attack zeus spesh for thermal d

so yeah thermal d is the strat

if artemis appears get support fire for the memes alone

static shock and aq are amazing as well

[lofty oriole]

Yeah Thermal Dynamics seems to be the easiest way to get through

I found my old Hel run. It was a pretty basic build tbh so I was surprised it managed to win 😅

No duos and just brute forcing with Poseidon

[wanton pelican]

Damn well done, gramps got mogged not even on the damage board

[lofty oriole]

Yeah I had Timer 2 since I was getting used to Hel at that point. So I just took my time with grandpa

[wanton pelican]

Im just tryna clear 32 surface fear, did u even use much of the o special ?

[lofty oriole]

Not really tbh

[wanton pelican]

I figure

[lofty oriole]

There's some fun builds where you can Omega special and immediately activate your Hex like Wolf Howl

[wanton pelican]

Yeah that seems neat, but the actual valkyrie mode from the aspect doesnt seem like a very powerful gimmick

[lofty oriole]

Oh I found my old 32F Surface

[lofty oriole]

Omega special can be nice for turning that Attack into machine gun. Especially with sanguinary savor

Though I don't really like Ares that much these days tbh 😅

[pliant tiger]

tbh only reason i take ares now is for speedruns for heinous affront

[lofty oriole]

^this

[wanton pelican]

Im actually so sad they took away mortal gain

[lofty oriole]

Setup can be a bit annoying

Zeus + Ares and Apollo 😭

[wanton pelican]

Such a cool boon, they could have done a percent or something for the prime

[lofty oriole]

Yeah legit. I don't even get excited about seeing Ares in my pool anymore 😭

[wanton pelican]

Ares at warsong was pure neuron activation

Now he needs so much setup

[pliant tiger]

i started hades 2 at unseen, what was he like back then?

[lofty oriole]

Iirc there was no cap to the Plasma for both attack speed and for movement, so you could get insane dps against bosses with Sanguinary savor

Now it's at just 100%

I never really liked his duos other than Heinous anyways so idk if anything changed there

[pliant tiger]

oh they did ares so dirty

[wanton pelican]

Grievous blow had bigger chances, snuffed candle used to be his, and his regen was basically born gain but with 15 hp at a time

[lofty oriole]

Just had a decent Supay run whilst trying to keep the Crimson dress intact. Shame about the 4 damage 😭

[wanton pelican]

V cool run

[pliant tiger]

no thermal d is very sad tho

oh wait mb i see it im just blind

[wanton pelican]

Imma try sending a hel run before 1.0, its my only 32f clear remaining for the surface

[lofty oriole]

Oh yeah I got that early on haha

Demolished everything with Antler it was crazy

[wanton pelican]

Im so scared of antler I feel like my low quality micro would never allow it

Im happy to cook a broken build and play a bunch of defense

[lofty oriole]

I had about 120ish armour after Fields so I was like "Sure whynot" 😂

[pliant tiger]

i only play antler if its a speedrun, besides that i wouldnt take it

im not daiyu levels of good

[lofty oriole]

Ugh same

I've kinda been a bit washed since the unrivalled updates. I need more practice with the new bosses at higher fears
