h2-victory-boasting

[analog oasis]

I have about 500

[coarse island]

😭 😭 I just hit 150 today lol. You’re actually insane to be able to do 62 that easily. I just died to p3 Chronos on 62 about an hour ago and I’m super bummed about it.

[worldly moat]

Most of the bosses are pretty intuitive though, I also pretty quickly started scaling my fear by 5 until the 55 -> 62 jump, and I havent done any actual targeted practice until recently and even then i like just doing full runs for practice

[coarse island]

Makes decent sense.

[analog oasis]

Plum, what's ur best for 67?

[worldly moat]

When you throw yourself at 67f erebus you learn hecate stupid fast, and the speedcord had a chaos trial editor setup that let me practice chronos

[worldly moat]

2nd phase scylla

[analog oasis]

Ah

[worldly moat]

Im getting more comfy with her just theres always a stray projectile or 2

I was gonna setup an edited trial for her so I can practice like I did gramps

[analog oasis]

Shes insane on 67

[worldly moat]

Yeah honestly she's the biggest roadblock, once i get past her i get to chronos unless i choke at cerb for whatever reason

[analog oasis]

Maybe I'll try Medea Skull next

[analog oasis]

Same

[worldly moat]

But yeah if you ever want targeted tips @coarse island I can help out generally, theres always little things with each boss to make em smoother

Ive done 62 with eos, circe, hel and 65 with mel staff so I know a good thing or 2

[rocky steppe]

Their biggest problem is comparing themselves to people like you and taking the losses too hard

[analog oasis]

I did 62 with Medea, Circe, Supay and Moros

[rocky steppe]

The mental is just not there

[analog oasis]

The latter of which went on to beat 67

[worldly moat]

High fear is just a mental battle yeah, you gotta be able to just take losses and move on even if it was good, find where the improvement needs to be and make the adjustment

Like honestly comparing my erebus runs from 67 attempts pre thumb cut were dogass compared to me now

[analog oasis]

Thumb cut?

You injure yourself and that made you better?

[worldly moat]

I cut the tip of my thumb off in December, put me out of commission for a few weeks

[analog oasis]

Ow

Also taking a break for a few days helps with losses

[analog oasis]

Had to also take a break when the game first released due to surgery

That was a few weeks

Afterwards I was better at the game so breaking was definitely good

[worldly moat]

Also lets any practice actually sink in and gets your mind fresh when you come back

I also stopped doing like long grinds, I only play for a few hours every couple days now just cuz otherwise I get annoyed, like I do a 62 or 2 and a couple 67 attempts unless I feel super clean that day

[analog oasis]

You also gotta exercise, work, other irl stuff

[abstract pike]

heave + seething = 🔥

[analog oasis]

More on topics like this, Hecate is depicted as having three faces or bodies.

Her Rivals fight has this

[rocky steppe]

@coarse island

[coarse island]

I just saw this, mb. My phone was bugging tf out. But yea, I just have absolutely terrible mental 😭.

[coarse island]

I will 100% take you up on that offer if I think of something. I’m sure there’s a lot but I’m about to go to bed so I’ll probably just ask tmrw. Lemme send you a friend request.

[coarse island]

That’s so sick, I’m going to go to bed now but I’d love to know more about little details like that.

[analog oasis]

Night

[rocky lily]

no where near enough Magick recovery

[deft terrace]

aspect of moros 🔥

[worldly moat]

Fleece 🥀

Shoutout unused seal happens so often I love taking the speculative seal

[deft terrace]

LOL real

[deft terrace]

i love fleece

[worldly moat]

Maybe im just too high fear pilled

[deft terrace]

may be
my top fear so far is 10 i think

[worldly moat]

Fleece loses out to lions fang

But like pin/antler will always be best for r4

[deft terrace]

my lions is only lvl 1 atm tho

[worldly moat]

Then level it twin 🥀

[deft terrace]

ik i just havent been bothered 💀

[rocky steppe]

Nah fleece is just worse than 3 other keepsakes

[pliant tiger]

nah a w is a w, now do strength 62f with antler next

[analog oasis]

I tried but got bad rooms before full of damn pinheads

And got no boons until end of Oceanus for attack and Special so it wasn't gonna work

[analog oasis]

Thats something called suicide

[regal shard]

on 62 thats definitely possible. Especially if you play safe aspects

[analog oasis]

Is Moros a dangerous aspect?

I use Wantler on Tart with it and win

[pliant tiger]

i did that a few times

on mel staff, circe, pan, supay, medea, and nyx

[analog oasis]

How far away from tentacles is safe?

Or janky hitbox

[worldly moat]

Youve done a 67 clear and dont know?? 😭

[analog oasis]

Yes

I have a general idea that works but I want definite answers

Im getting tired

[frozen turtle]

couldve been way better

[crimson junco]

It took me countless attempts, but I finally took down Rival Typhon. And it was kind of a stomp, because I still had death defiance left. I had a build that basically was an infinite loop of high damage and invincibility, plus I had lost a few times, so I knew what to expect, so dodging was easy. Possibly the hardest goal I will be aiming for, and I greatly appreciate the level of work that went into the balance of this game.

[frosty bridge]

What helps for 62 eos? 😅

im struggling on 50+ Fear surface rn

[rocky steppe]

Unseen

[frosty bridge]

I use that

[rocky steppe]

I'm out of advice then

[frosty bridge]

unseen.......night w jpom gaming, (no boatman)

[neon grail]

get twilight curse in ephyra and spam

[rocky steppe]

Real

[neon grail]

solves all Magick using weapons problems in surface

[worldly moat]

Lemme find my 62 eos screenshot real quick

Ok this was the run

And honestly the build was kinda buns icl

I didnt run unseen either I just hoped id get a gain early

A lot of what helped me was early on being smart with when I put out daybreaker so I could get away with no hecuba and no unseen, then after that just playing clean and hoping you get a strong setup

[frosty bridge]

do you daybreaker as u enter a room and omega spec asap or wait for omega spec

[worldly moat]

Hera on special is so funny, I think I had a couple other runs get to gramps that I fumbled, its a pretty flexible weapon build wise, just be conscious of where youre putting daybreaker and dont be afraid to throw it out again to reposition it forcefully

[worldly moat]

Generally id get closer to the enemies, drop it, Ospec, then try my best to clear fast enough that the daybreaker carries into the next wave or sets up perfectly to drop a 2nd with an Ospec into a new wave

Iirc at base persistence mana you have enough for 2 full ospec daybreakers?? So just playing around it properly and knowing when to commit or play a bit weaker to commit later becomes important in no unseen management

Hoping artificer gives a couple mana pots, taking pots over hearts, and just hoping for a gain asap works fine, sure its gambling pretty bad already on high fear jpom but like eh who cares

[pliant tiger]

took me long enough but I got the sub 6 supay daso done

third person to get this, now aiming for surface

[frosty bridge]

I still keep unseen card so that I can use gale/toula

[rocky lily]

oh yes most damage taken chaos

[cursive panther]

THIS IS IT I AM VERY CLOSE TO THE END

[rocky lily]

You could have taken 113 more damage to surpass 1000 and still live lol

Very happy first time I got Poseidon Legendary, and I love Smolder ring + glamour gain + burning desire + pyro technique

Thank you Silken Sash

[rocky steppe]

Bottom 5 keepsake too

[rocky lily]

Yeah the only reason I used it is because I'm trying to level up every keepsake and it seems I'm not taking damage in normal encounters lol

[cursive panther]

I MADE IT || TO THE END OF THE STORY ||

[half gate]

I almost died lol

[regal shard]

new dress

[pliant tiger]

@lofty oriole dress 62f win (forgot to highlight dress but its there)

[ionic shale]

Finally, I hate ||Arachne and Athena|| rng 😔

[pliant tiger]

https://youtu.be/MC3H_VQD9Jc

[lofty oriole]

Damn Wretched Thug 😭

[pliant tiger]

wretched thug is pain in ass

[haughty summit]

watching the chronos fight, I notice the X underneath the health bar of chronos appears and then it looks like it's a timer? What does the timer keep track of?

I looks like it's synced with origination's icon, so I'm guessing it tracks one of the status curses? Is there a rule for which one it tracks?

[rotund hamlet]

that blue x is the freeze cooldown

[haughty summit]

is it the cooldown until they can be frozen again? Because it certainly looks like the freeze effect has worn off long before the X disappears

[analog oasis]

That is how long it takes until it can proc again

[rotund hamlet]

the actual freeze doesnt apply to bosses, but it does slow them

[haughty summit]

yes, you see them blue and slowed for a time, but the X persists after the blue slow wears off

it would make sense that it's the time until it can proc again, though it's strange that it also seems to be synced with origination in that case

[rotund hamlet]

well checkmate has 2 other curses which could explain it

[molten hamlet]

i REALLY didnt expect my omega special to be tops there.

[analog oasis]

On Hel, its OP

[molten hamlet]

Clearly.. especially when i had apollo on special and 6 extra ranks

[tired gazelle]

genuinely my favorite build ever

[stable sapphire]

such an amazing build for a fast run but i got destroyed by a slow nemesis + asphodel out of nowhere :(

[tropic leaf]

man and I’m proud when I get under 20…

How fast do you gotta be to get “faster than darkness”?

[analog oasis]

Under 10 minutes I believe

[tropic leaf]

welp never doing that

[stable sapphire]

notice that there may be a weapon that is especially good for this

[hazy cloud]

real

[stable sapphire]

the aspect of medea is unbelievably fast other weapons dont even come close

[tropic leaf]

I simply was not meant to go fast

I have tried with Medea I’m simply not good with it.

[stable sapphire]

what if u did a slowrun instead and tried to take literal days to beat the game so that it shows up as like 1984:32.16

that would be pretty freaking sweet i think

[tropic leaf]

Fastest run is 18 something with Eos Torches and Megablais

[stable sapphire]

i LOVE the torches but having to depend on magick just isnt my playstyle ...

[tropic leaf]

I think Medea’s speed also gets an enormous boost from Wide Grin.

Like without it I just can’t get in the rhythm

[stable sapphire]

what that

[tropic leaf]

One button press to load all skulls

They fire at once

[stable sapphire]

oh the daedalus aspect ?? i always just went with the special boosters the whole time

im gonna try that O_O!!

[tropic leaf]

Obviously I know Medea is cracked in the right hands, they are simply not mine. The thing I like about Hades is all the different weapons are viable for different playstyles.

[winged sigil]

12 i think

[analog oasis]

Try Moros

[stable sapphire]

with a 10:19 i got Quick Silver

wide grin was good and it could be really really fast with a better attack boon but i had a miserable fields of mourning

i cant believe how unlucky i got with the spawns + every reward being in the middle of nowhere and rly far apart

[worldly moat]

Wide grin is the like one thing you avoid on medea

[manic relic]

Yeah it completely messes up your combo

[analog oasis]

Never done it but sounds funny

[tropic leaf]

I mean it seems like it was made for that aspect; what else are you going to use it for.

[worldly moat]

Nothing lmao its a buns hammer

[tropic leaf]

Second-fastest clear

[worldly moat]

shoutout another practice no lovers 62

[tropic leaf]

It works better for me than standard Medea 🤷

[worldly moat]

hitless cerb, gramps, and hecate was close i was just playing a bit silly, scylla was also relatively clean considering charybdis feature

[worldly moat]

then youre playing medea wrong

like genuinely

[manic relic]

Pretty much nothing except funny builds cause it doesn't work on mel aspect either

[worldly moat]

wide grin lowkey bricks the weapon if you know how to properly use it, you should only ever be loading like 1 shell, the idea is just press attackx1 -> special -> repeat

since if you force load all 4 shells you have to wait to pick them all up again

[manic relic]

I guess its okay for Persephone but there are so many other better hammers for it

[worldly moat]

they shouldve let hel get it and make it a shotgun

[manic relic]

Would be pretty insane if it worked with mel aspect and all shells got the power buff

[cinder hull]

I mean, hey, it can work on Mel, it’s just not necessarily any better than literally any other Hammer most of the time

I cleared my first 62 with it + Antler, but I wouldn’t redo that unless it were just to say I could LOL

[manic relic]

I mean it doesn't work with the power buff of the aspect

[cinder hull]

Oh, yeah, gotcha

[manic relic]

It works sure it's funny but you're just playing aspectless

[cinder hull]

(And I find it kinda telling that Skull is just good enough to have that be an option still)

[tropic leaf]

this is new info for me

I thought special would just pick them all up

[manic relic]

The shells only drop after you attack so you'd need to do
Attack (loads all 4) > special (triggers the attacks dropping all 4) > special (picks all 4)

And that's just less damage

[tropic leaf]

Good to know, will try with that new info.

[south wigeon]

sub 10 :D

[mortal mist]

def one of my more insane and easy runs lol. Almost deathless on typhon

[worldly moat]

shoutout me being awful at the game today, 2nd practice no lovers 62, shouldve been like 4th but chronos is just being super super mean today with his patterns

[analog oasis]

Trying 55f Mel coat and getting my ass whooped into next week

I like my Skull and Tourches better

[rotund hamlet]

what about your momus

[analog oasis]

I like Circe better

[lofty oriole]

Gave it a go and was surprisingly effective and fun 👌

I’d probably struggle a lot more on a weaker aspect though

[lofty oriole]

Nice time though 👌

Also 4 hammers sheeesh 😮

[covert glade]

Ive had weird field runs where the last boon i found was a hammer and echo is like, here ya go

If i could get 3 hammers every time I would

[lofty oriole]

It do be tempting. Unless she gives out Evade 👀

[covert glade]

Oh on high fear yeah evade every time

[rare parcel]

Simply get Thermal Dynamics

[pliant tiger]

yeah cuz like all of my strength antler 62f wins are with s tier aspects

well not really

pan and supay exist

tho pan easily s tier with tk which i had

[rare parcel]

Would you believe me if I say each time I get Trick Knives I get my worst runs because I didn't learn to use it?

Now I think I got the hang of it lol

[pliant tiger]

you understand it now

[rare parcel]

Certainly I won't forget it by the next time I get it

[abstract pike]

I wouldn't say not even close. almost every aspect has been used to clear in under 5min at this point. and charon/moros/melskull records are pretty close to medea

[coarse island]

First time wantlering on 55f. I was doing really well but It got a lil spicy on p3. Beat it tho!

3rd 55f.

Building consitency for 62 one day.

[covert glade]

The skull has an inherent movement advantage that other weapons struggle to compete with.

But yeah most aspects have gotten sub 5 now

[abstract pike]

yep. i'm saying I disagree with the statement that nothing comes even close to medea

[abstract stratus]

All these screen shots make me realize how bad I am damn

[abstract stratus]

daymn is this aspect better than mels?

[worldly moat]

No lol

Mel staff is so much stronger for less effort

[coarse island]

It is?? I feel like Circe is insane if you just get a cast but idk. Should I be trying to do my 62 with Mel?

[tropic leaf]

Looking at my damage taken; that's wild

[rocky steppe]

You might have more success, circe just has more damage off the line and I would say it's safer with cast damage

[coarse island]

Fair, I also just like Circe more ngl.

You’ve changed me lol

Circe is now one of if not my fav aspects 😭

[rocky steppe]

Real

[analog oasis]

I suck at Circe or any staff

[rocky steppe]

Circe is just harder to get an optimal build with

[analog oasis]

I like my flames more

[coarse island]

Yea, rip to that insane build I got..

At least I got to p3 with it.

[prime cipher]

Far too much health for my own good

[prime cipher]

My streak well at least I got it

[drowsy kestrel]

just a super fun build that i made by accident, having mirrored thrash and cardio gain is god tier with shocking loss asw

[molten monolith]

sub 10 and 32 fear fun run on thanatos with bonkers boons

[lethal flicker]

Consider power surge for such a build btw, lightning strike in every attack

[drowsy kestrel]

okay thanks

[lethal flicker]

(it's about the only time power surge is good)

[tall coyote]

FIRST TRY TYPHON BEAT

[pliant tiger]

sub 15 circe 62f but didnt record

[molten hamlet]

Jeez.. i see you guys taking like no damage and i just question myself completely

[pliant tiger]

wdym i took no dmg i clearly took dmg

tho i have to admit oceanus fields and tartarus were all damageless its only erebus that was clusterf*ck

[molten hamlet]

my dude... i take like twice your total on a single boss

and thats not even eit much fear

[pliant tiger]

whats ur highest fear

[wary frigate]

Second Surface 50f clear :MelinoeSticker:

[molten hamlet]

i've done a 32 underworld and a 24 surface to get the 3rd award from Skelly

[pliant tiger]

well you shouldnt question yourself you are better than like, 95% of the community rn

majority of players havent even beaten chronos yet (basing this off of steam achievements)

[molten hamlet]

the fated list is completely done. I've beaten both of them Unrivaled.

[pliant tiger]

well thats nice

point is you shouldnt beat yourself just cuz other players are better than you, also you can just improve on your gameplay

i used to be completely ass at this game but practice makes perfect

[molten hamlet]

yeah i know.. its just really mind blowing how crazy good some of you guys are.

[ebon yacht]

I didnt realize I could get this much air, i should really get wispy wiles

[lethal flicker]

28% dodge is pretty nice, yeah

Zeus, Aphrodite and Apollo on that run?

plus a Epic Creation boon I'd wager

[ebon yacht]

Zeus, aphro, hestia and heph, no chaos

also I didnt get wispy wiles T-T

I did get atleast one air on the resource gathering tho

[lethal flicker]

it seems odd that you had exactly 3 earth, water and aether

that's why I guessed creation

[lethal flicker]

That's capped at one per element, per run

[ebon yacht]

I see

The 3 aether is def duos, I got offered every one of them this run i think

[lethal flicker]

50% chance per gather

fair enough, just unusual to get that many air without all three gods of the same element

[ebon yacht]

I went hard with zeus to the point of getting shocking loss with intending, thats prolly why

[lethal flicker]

that can happen

there's no system in the game to balance out the number of boons you'll get of each god

[ebon yacht]

my boons by the end, the second page only has spiritual aff, I got quick buck as my 1st boon so bought every boon i could get in hermes shrines and charon shops

[kind compass]

Just defeated Chronos for the first time, woooo

[unkempt pendant]

i've never had more fun in a Hades game in my life. Hel aspect IS SO MUCH FUN, i made a literal minigun

[dire cosmos]

new pb, really happy 😄

[molten hamlet]

Aspect of Anubis with Apollo on attack, and the Daedalus hammer that makes the attack bigger... Room wide death zones.

I got reckelss on Chronos because i had 8 uses of Moon Water and came in with full hp/magic.

[tropic leaf]

oh Anubis—no fear but very silly

[rotund hamlet]

yess antler 🔥

[maiden hawk]

first silk-saver, I liked the black dress so much that I wanted to show it to Chronos

[tropic leaf]

At that point I was like well why not

I almost lost the crimson dress in Erebus; somehow eeked out a Hecate fight with no damage with 2 armor the entire time.

[worldly moat]

i ony got hit at chronos cuz he was just f-ing evil

like wdym im supposed to be restricted by the time stop bubbles, you plop the like stupid big clock bomb thing on top of me and youre gonna dash at me

[sharp hazel]

First time playing the Aspect of the Morrigan, but I think it was one of my highest DPS build so far.
Sadly I was lacking a bit of magik regen with only an unleveled common Hestia

[echo quartz]

i was grinding for mf ||Narcissus and echo for like 10 hours with media aspect||

and somehow did it in 6:46 lmao

[cunning leaf]

chat is this quick enough?

there's also incandescent aura and 4th degree on the other side
uncle helped me max out my moon with sea star

this is my first run with this aspect btw

[worldly moat]

some of this enemy ai fills me with a rage unmatched because im convinced no one playtested cerb or scylla and some of the stupid situations chronos puts you in is absurd

like yes scylla please put me in checkmate situations i literally couldnt do anything about because 20 different things are shooting at me at different times that i had literally zero control over 🙏 thank you cerb for just tweaking tf out half the time if i do more than like 2 damage at a time, and thank you chronos for just being a pain

[covert glade]

Morrigan is my favorite, i like fishing for either final slice or sweeping ambush and getting as many base attack buffs as possible

[coarse island]

OH MY GOD... THERE'S NO WAY.. 62 FEAR COMPLETE!! OH MY GODDD.

[worldly moat]

shoutout r4 athena

[coarse island]

Fr 😭

I alsmost sold so much. I really wanted to do a bit better on the Chronos fight but I did the first 2 phases hitless

Or damageless I should say.

I have a recording of the fight too.

There's actually no way though

@rocky steppe

The best part is that I got a swap for storm ring

I had solar ring first but I kept grabbing zeus and he just gave it to me

Shoutout to steady growth as well lol

I'm so fricking happy..

[worldly moat]

i love denial being good

[worldly moat]

its a good run! solid clear time too you did great

[coarse island]

I'm looking back at recording and it was a life or death at the VERY END. It was an up close triple scyth throw and I somehow dodged it and killed him RIGHT AFTER I DODGED.

[coarse island]

Tysm.

[coarse island]

I looked back again and saw that I probably could've tanked that but still.

[haughty summit]

62 feels like a task for gods, I can't imagine getting to that level

(I know there are many who have/are doing 62f runs)

[rotund hamlet]

youll get there 🔥

[coarse island]

It felt like that for me too but if you put your mind to it, you’ll be able to do it soon.

[manic relic]

It sure is hard but super possible if you really wanna do it, I envy people who can do it consistently and with multiple aspects tho

[coarse island]

Same lol

Idk what aspect I wanna try it with next but I’ll figure it out. I’m just so happy that I got my first 62 win though.

[molten hamlet]

The more i play Anubis.. the more i like it.

[unkempt basalt]

Goated aspect

[coarse island]

Fr

[agile marsh]

i think thats gotta be a new record for dmg taken while also surviving the fight lmao

[rocky steppe]

I've seen close to 2k

[agile marsh]

well its my new record 😾

but like holy crap so much dmg

[rare parcel]

I only got Cut Above on The Summit, and Coffin Nail only before Typhon

And it still appeared on the damage board

[rare parcel]

[eager breach]

holy chain lightning

[molten hamlet]

Nyx is probably my least played aspect. It just doesnt seem like it really DOES much

[pliant tiger]

it's my favorite coat aspect

it has built in shimmering rockets which is massive

get an on hit special and you are gaming

[mild blaze]

0 hit chronos clear

[ebon yacht]

holy queens ransom

1st time i purposefully went for a ransom boon

[rare parcel]

Still no Heartthorbs on the damage board

[olive vigil]

I know you’re a time 3 hater, but you would have had it with time 3 too

[rare parcel]

Well, the fact I can doesn't mean I want to activate it 🤷‍♂️

[rocky lily]

lol

Somehow I picked a bunch of stuff up and it doesn't give me a copy.

Don't ask why I got so many magick lmao, bunch of copy and I was trying to get Heph magick armor

And I gotta deal with my Ionic Gain and Possessed Array

[spring fulcrum]

my fastest time so far is on the run i (finally) completed the (updated) true ending :D

[quick vigil]

It can't copy everything

Depends of the source too. iirc it will not copy Charon's shop items

[rocky lily]

Oh that's why

[cinder hull]

Actually loving Howling on Charon

[winged sigil]

i like that more people are seeing the vision in ranged casts 🔥

[cinder hull]

LLance has always had my heart, but I’m coming around on Howling lol

[ionic shale]

I know right, same 💩 different night 😂

[lethal flicker]

It's a lot better now that it has better target selection, not perfect though

[woven flicker]

Its cool, but i cant stop using lucid gain with charon which makes it much worse

[pliant tiger]

huh how is it worse its literally just waiting for the cast to hit

https://youtu.be/a8ZnRareIXs

[tall coyote]

FIRST VICTORY AGAINST CHRONOS YAYYY

didn't even use any death defiances <3

[rocky lily]

support fire carry

[tall coyote]

[woven flicker]

You have to stay in the cast to get the regen? So if you cast it away you wont stand in it

[pliant tiger]

huh? lucid gain changed in 1.0 so that u wont have to stand in it to get magick anymore

as a compromise for this change they reduced the base magick value

[winged sigil]

they giga buffed lucid gain in 1.0
don't have to stand in cast anymore but regens half

[molten hamlet]

lucid gain + Aspect of Circe = INFINITE POWAH!

[woven flicker]

And this is how you find out i havent played since EA 😅
Well this is embarrassing mb
||Cant wait to see the ending||

[lethal flicker]

Lucid gain's actual gain is less, but you don't feel it

older Lucid's gain amount was too big anyway

[deft terrace]

i think thats the least dmg ive ever taken so far

[cunning leaf]

I BEAT TYPHON IN LESS THAN 90 SECONDS

-# i also had 20% dmg resistance cuz im grinding quests but it didnt affect the run much

[worldly moat]

Evil eye 🥀

[cunning leaf]

tryna max my keepsakes 🥀
also i spammed all my goon water before typh, it did so much dmg, coulda been faster if i kept em

[radiant needle]

Now do Rivals Typhon

[cunning leaf]

i still havent cleared rivals 2 xd

[molten hamlet]

IMO.. Scylla is the biggest pain of all the rivals bosses.

[rotund hamlet]

i think most would agree

[covert glade]

she said shes gonna claw your eyes out

[tropic leaf]

Crazy aura tho

the amount of times I’ve failed to dodge her little charge…

[covert glade]

honestly, that charge gets me more than anything else

[pliant tiger]

i usually juke her charge

you are not getting me scylla

[rocky trout]

[pliant tiger]

booooooo no antler

go back to the mines and get an antler clear

[neon grail]

nah I'm fine

I cleared 55f surface with antler yesterday I can upload that

[pliant tiger]

nah

62f with antler shall suffice

[neon grail]

bro I don't want to risk my 62f run

[pliant tiger]

if everything dies in one to two hits ur fine

ur not dying

i cleared 62f eos with antler

[neon grail]

good for you

[pliant tiger]

nah but seriously

good stuff

try antler at least once tho

[regal shard]

I used to be scared of antler too. But believe me it's easier at the final fight because you most of the time combo break. And in tart you basically one tap enemies. Fr try at least once and you will never go back to pin

also win rate is much higher

[pliant tiger]

if u deal doodoo dmg without antler tho ur cooked

[regal shard]

i still take it tho.

[pliant tiger]

exactly

we always take antler

[regal shard]

extra crit wouldnt hurt. And by this point i can perfect tart(because gale exists) so it's free

it's all mental game ig. When you have enough experience with 62 iguess you dont scared of losing because you know you can get another 62 with ease. Then you start clicking antler

[molten hamlet]

Chronos is my Kryptonite

[rotund hamlet]

genius you took damage for mutual destruction

[molten hamlet]

yes... yes.. of course, that was exactly it!

[normal gate]

Got the poseidon legendary from echo. She is my goat

[molten hamlet]

There was a LOT of cast spamming...

[gilded ravine]

[covert glade]

Just 2 fear left

[worldly moat]

And its the 2 worst fear known to man

[coarse island]

:3

I got kings ransom twice but I just never got that many poms normally so It's sadly not higher. I've been wanting to do this for a while so it's a nice break from high fear.

[covert glade]

Not debt

[analog oasis]

Vow of Debt is basically free Fear especially with Time Piece

[covert glade]

Lol i know Im jk

Ah

62F SURFACE DONE!!!

[hollow sentinel]

"Ares is the worst god in the game."

[worldly moat]

and blitz beat him like nothing

[analog oasis]

For Moros, get Hera Attack if at all possible

[hollow sentinel]

Of course, Grievous Blow and Mutual Destruction didn't add to Blitz's damage at all.

[rare parcel]

For a build without Origination, not bad

[desert scaffold]

No he is not the worst, at least better than Dyo.

[coral matrix]

this title "Pride of Olympus" requires you to get 3 legendary boons in a run

[molten hamlet]

ooh.. neat. Thats a real stroke of perfect luck

[regal shard]

no demeter, nitro boost, extra dodge and trick knives

I just grinded the game for three days and got the true ending 🙏🙏🙏

[lethal flicker]

Heinous smite build but ultimately a 2k+ blaster build

Hel is good sometimes, an that special is great for proccing heinous affront

[molten hamlet]

Godsent Moon Water covers a LOT of sins

dude, whats up with your screen lol? is it one of those ultra wide or sth

[plush stirrup]

[molten hamlet]

Yes. The resolution on that screen 3440x1440. its a 34" Samsung Odyssey Ultra Wide monitor

forgive the ignorance, but how do you record like that?

On steam I just use the ctrl+f11 and then export it from steam

[molten hamlet]

oh neat

[limber sapphire]

Aspect of charon glaze, my lord

[quick vigil]

idk how I struggle so much in higher fear but somehow 32 feels easy with almost any aspect. Still way too much damage on Chronos though. I guess I'll do 32 on all aspects

i didnt even realize, if i ran lovers it wouldve been hitless lmfao

TOOK ME 75 SECONDS TO BEAT HIM

the whole fight:

jesus 11609, uncle poseidon my GOAT

[frail fern]

What's your usual animal companion for high fear? Galeo?

[worldly moat]

Gale yeah, the blocks are super valuable

And on circe they're the most consistent familiar next to raki

[worldly moat]

i had to lock tf in, i lost 2 dds to scylla, committed to just getting kiss of styx, never got a single one, then had one bad dash on rivals gramps

shoutout anvil ring though i finally won a run with it, funny ass cast but man is it bad

[regal shard]

bro why dont you go right for the 67 instead of practicing on 62?

[rare parcel]

All this and still Omega Special did the most damage

Hel is certainly quirky

[worldly moat]

Cuz 99% of 67 attempts wont get past hecate or sirens, id rather get full run practice so I dont forget how to fight cerb and gramps

Plus im doing no lovers :P it's kinda real practice

[regal shard]

honestly if i were aiming for 67 i would go straight for it intsead of practicing on 62. Who knows mb that 1 time i actually get it

but i am not touching that shi. My peak is 65

[worldly moat]

I also had an issue of after doing so many 67s that didn't get past sirens i went back to do a 62 and couldn't get past cerb 😭

My rhythm right now is just get a couple cleans 62s to warm up then dive into 67

[regal shard]

[tired anvil]

imagine that with charon aspect

She always gets me when she summons particularily annoying guys

I'm easily distracted

Also Thanatos is not one of those aspects I can just turn my brain off with

Doing a 67 Medea run

Past the sick concert.

Lost it due to activating pin too early

[wanton pelican]

this is a good challenge

Unlimited Supay but no Supay, dash boons are but a suggestion. I like Judgment because it gives me +2 fear from void

[rotund hamlet]

void at 46 is funny

[coarse island]

I got it on accident with an epic geyser spout and Chronos became an after thought and got sprinkled back into Tartarus like some salt.

[analog oasis]

Died in tart

White Antler killed me

[tranquil patio]

first sub 20 time and first escape with this weapon!

i maybe went a bit overboard with the death defiances tho, probably about time i stopped using them

[rocky steppe]

Become a strength gamer

[tranquil patio]

oh wait lmao i never saw that card before

[prime cipher]

I uh... Very much appreciated the ||Infinite death defiance during Chronos Phase 3 💀 that was uh... very much appreciated... If Grandfather is going to bs himself another phase I am too I guess... That's not the Final Rival Oath is it?.... oh no...||

[rocky steppe]

Actual rivals chronos is worse

[prime cipher]

🫠

[tranquil patio]

i did see i just never thought of using it with no defiances to start lol

[prime cipher]

that typo was 1000% times funnier than it had the right to be

[wanton pelican]

yes, haha! morrigan rocks

[rocky steppe]

You'd be suprised how good it feels

[tranquil patio]

yeah, setting it up rn

im still pretty early into the game but could def be the vibe

[rocky steppe]

What arcana are you using?

[rocky steppe]

Take off unseen and excellence, they're worst two arcana, swap them for origination and boatman

Also take off eternity and put on furies and swift runners

[rocky steppe]

And either go all in on rerolls or don't use them at all

[analog oasis]

Its worse... far worse

And I've been doing 67 with Medea skull all night so I have to beat it hitless

[worldly moat]

Eww you avoided like every actually good arcana

[tranquil patio]

lmao thats also not what wa saon my run

but also probably

[old mountain]

Top row is good after that

[analog oasis]

Why no Artificer?

[tranquil patio]

Idek which one that is

[prime cipher]

make lame reward good

[nimble mortar]

Went into the final floor with no DDs or athena available, white antler hard carried

Managed to save 2 gale blocks for typhon lmao

[analog ermine]

Got my first win

[old mountain]

Let's go man

[analog ermine]

Phase 2 on Chronos is so crazy lol

I'm very happy that I immediately caught on to what I assume is an insta kill attack lol, but there's so many effects on screen both mine and his that I can barely tell what's going on

[worldly moat]

Itll get worse(rivals)

[analog ermine]

I'm gonna take it slow like the first game lol

If I can make him make sense to fight then I'll bump up to whatever the Extreme Measures of this game is

[coral matrix]

Not knowing the French names makes this so funny. Like who is Jessie

[thorn wolf]

lol
jetty maybe?

[analog ermine]

Jetty's the one with the guitar right? She usually clips me whenever any of the Scylla trio hits me

[thorn wolf]

yep

[analog ermine]

Ye that makes sense

It's either Roxy or Jetty but one of them is always a problem in that fight lol, albeit sometimes just bein a speed bump

[analog oasis]

Those dang vacuum shade things in the fields getting me killed

[worldly moat]

I hate them too, I need to make a new enemy teirlist

[analog oasis]

Been consistently timing out on Cerb on 67 due to those bastards

And forget Evade Evade Evade

They burn it up

[pliant tiger]

eh just kill them first ez ggs

[analog oasis]

Isn't like flames

Medea is close range

[pliant tiger]

yeah and medea deals lot of dmg

[analog oasis]

And most are armored

[pliant tiger]

ur killing them in no time

[mystic void]

[tropic leaf]

Looking back on my first victories.

[warm nymph]

gotta pull up my final damage card when i get the chance but i had a crazy mel skull run earlier, exceptional talent bombs and total eclipse every 3 launches

i normally never used eternity but honest to god it was actually fantastic for just chaining endless barrages of attacks

the additional magick usage from ET charged up the hex so fast it was fantastic

genuinely it felt like i was playing a meteor storm

[analog oasis]

Vow of Pain 3 and Blessing of Strife is one bad combo

[coarse island]

New best surface fear even though it was kinda easy lol. I'm so bad at the typhon fight though 😭. 55f next ig.

Also a little silly incandescent aura 😭

[oak bridge]

So lucky on this one

Look at the damage typhon did I burned through 3 revives because I ran out of time

[lethal flicker]

Another attempt at a helheim charge that just kinda ended up as an "AHHHHH DAKKADAKKADAKKA" build with absurd attack speed in valkyrie form

[analog oasis]

Was this the right choice?

[regal shard]

ngl wth is that build 😭 😂. I hope you got the win tho

how did it go?

[analog oasis]

Went back to Moros

[regal shard]

did you win the medea tho?

[analog oasis]

No

[regal shard]

dang.

[analog oasis]

I suck at Medea

[quick vigil]

Tough gain was the right choice, but people don't want you to know that

[analog oasis]

Doing this again.

Going well already on Moros

Granted this is my 5th one on Moros

All earlier runs resulted in failure

[analog oasis]

I notice that now...

Did it again

With Moros

I seriously need a capture card

[coarse island]

Insane

Also what’s the deal with discordant bell? Is it actually good for 67?

[quick vigil]

It's apparently terribly bad but somehow he can make it work in his build

[coarse island]

lol, that’s fun.

[analog oasis]

No, but it works with my playstyle

[coarse island]

That’s fun.

[nova crater]

double legendary is cool. i like how i can very clearly feel 32 fear becoming more and more normal. always nice to really feel yourself getting better. this run wasnt sketchy in the slightest

[analog oasis]

Keepsakes if anyone is interested

[worldly moat]

dumbass weapon

no orig, no beach ball, bad cast for this weapon, i guess im just better but like lmao this shouldnt of worked

demeter showed up once to give snow queen, zeus showed up once to give nothing

[rocky steppe]

No wonder you timed out

[worldly moat]

20 seconds over on hecate lmao, everyone else was fine though

had to take fig r2 :P worked out though

[analog oasis]

Hecate is always hit or miss

[worldly moat]

call me john circe the way ive won with every single cast on 62 minus the ones that dont work

you will never catch me using ares posiedon or hera cast, unless hera cast does work in which case thatd actually still just be awful on bosses

forgot to mention its also no lovers

like lmao

[desert scaffold]

Let the SkyFall, when it crumbles

[frosty bridge]

Why are you hiding the health, mana and damage taken?

[analog oasis]

Wasn't trying to do that

[frosty bridge]

Like ima be honest, I might come across as rude saying this but without a vod I'm very skeptical of your 67, especially when parts of the screenshot are hidden

[analog oasis]

Ok

I will post an entire screen next clear

[frosty bridge]

I'd need a vod to believe honestly.

[rocky steppe]

😭

[analog oasis]

No capture card for switch 2 or anything

[frosty bridge]

I'm not familiar with switch, how did you take this image ?

Just legitimately curious

[analog oasis]

Hold down capture button and it has last 30 seconds

[frosty bridge]

Ohh ok

[analog oasis]

I tried doing that but taking hand/finger away from the joystick jeopardizes getting hit

Like, i mean take them every 30 seconds then splice them into a vid

[frosty bridge]

Like I'm just saying, Im always skeptical of any 67 clear unless I see a vod because it's so, so hard to do

[analog oasis]

This was my 1st clear

[frosty bridge]

Brb

[frosty bridge]

You have a vod?

If not, I don't believe the clear was legit automatically

Doesn't just apply to you but to anyone without a vod unless other people were in a vc and come forward or something

[analog oasis]

I promise it was legit, Switch 2 cannot cheat. But I will get a capture card when I can.

[worldly moat]

strength antler no lovers 🗣️ 🔥

now i start 67 attempts

[rocky steppe]

No vod it's not real

[coarse island]

Fr fr

[worldly moat]

:C

i have a clip of cerb tweaking tf out

i also have the whole chronos fight lol ty nvidia replay 🙏

like why did bro do this

[analog oasis]

This happened to me too once

It occurs when hes about to spit fireball but you interrupt him by attacking when he covers up

[whole tiger]

Sooo…. Why is there no boon on the victory screen for fates’ whim? None of your keepsakes break it

[grizzled slate]

How did you break fates whim on this run I am confused

[analog oasis]

No

I didn't

[grizzled slate]

Then how are some of your boons level 1

[analog oasis]

Oh none are just common

[pliant tiger]

i think boateds talking about ur lvl 1 blinding rush

[velvet carbon]

also where is the jpom boon icon on your winscreen

[grizzled slate]

^^ yes

[velvet carbon]

never mind lol

there is one

[pliant tiger]

boon x3 exists

[velvet carbon]

run history is just weird

[velvet carbon]

yea

[analog oasis]

Aphrodite boon there was Affirmation which doesn't get a buff from Fates whim iirc

[velvet carbon]

yea

[grizzled slate]

Blinding rush from Apollo

[analog oasis]

Or that was surrender

[grizzled slate]

Your sprint boon is level 1 ! Where did you get that during the run, I’m just curious, not trying to say anything 🤠

[analog oasis]

Tartarus

[pliant tiger]

what

[frosty bridge]

How?

[grizzled slate]

H U H

[analog oasis]

Shop

[grizzled slate]

H U H

[pliant tiger]

but u didn't break whim

[analog oasis]

I know

[pliant tiger]

it should've been lvl 4

[analog oasis]

What im trying to figure out

[frosty bridge]

Guess you need to file a bug report with supergiant

[analog oasis]

Possibly

[grizzled slate]

https://tenor.com/view/rizzler-horror-scary-reaction-what-gif-7804337321742065704

[pliant tiger]

ngl you should've recorded run using ur phone since u don't have capture card

[grizzled slate]

Love when I get a level 1 boon in Tartarus from the hidden zagreus chamber right everyone 🤠

[analog oasis]

Like, play my switch normally whilst a phone or other is propped above?

[pliant tiger]

yes

[analog oasis]

Ok

[analog oasis]

That can't happen in Tart

Endshop

[grizzled slate]

If you exit to main menu enough they must decrease your boon levels

[analog oasis]

How does that happen?

[static cloud]

step by step

[analog oasis]

OHHHH

I remember

[south wigeon]

aspect or circe is pretty fun

[analog oasis]

Echo gave it from previous run.

[velvet carbon]

yea that makes sense

[analog oasis]

That isn't buffed by Jpom

[worldly moat]

Wtf was the hades boon

Since you didnt break fw unless im blind

[analog oasis]

Unseen Ire

[errant notch]

did you not get hades in tart?

[analog oasis]

No

[errant notch]

so what was that hades boon

[worldly moat]

Does ire not show on the big left window

[analog oasis]

Unseen Ire

[worldly moat]

Could've sworn every hades boon does

[errant notch]

they do yes

[errant notch]

from jpom you got ire, did you see a hades room?

[analog oasis]

No

No hands on a door

Unless I was blind

So Echo boons don't get buffs from JPom thats what it was.

[pliant tiger]

why'd u say it was tartarus beforehand tho

echo isn't in tartarus she's in fields

[analog oasis]

I misremembered because of past runs

[charred zodiac]

Holy invincible build

Whyd you r2 phial 🥀

[old mountain]

never punished rollled heroic on my apollo strike on final slice morrigan

felt it in my bones

[worldly moat]

Chrolex or fig are infinitely more valuable but never punished ig 😔

[analog oasis]

How exactly do you play that aspect? I could never get a hand of it.

I know the triad but it moves so weird

[old mountain]

if you dont got final slice attack special oattack

[analog oasis]

Oh

[old mountain]

spam dash betwen all moves

o cast is also good but a little less consistent

[analog oasis]

Dashing between seems unsafe due to Vow of Time.

[old mountain]

keeps you safe vs vow of pain

you can also dash into chargeing oattack

[analog oasis]

Oh makes sense. With torches it is consistent when you can spam attacks while having Ω Special.

I need to learn blades.

[manic relic]

Holy r2 phial based

[old mountain]

never punished

[dim forum]

Not victory in a classic sense but I got quick buck, buried treasure and sea star proc all together on the x3 money chamber neeting me over 1400 in one go feelsgood

[manic relic]

phial is always the optimal play cause it will always hit what you want

you just gotta have the right mentality for it

and have a gambling addiction

[rotund badger]

I'm finally starting to get over the rivals IV hill!

beat Chronos, again, and it was a lot less sloppy than previous wins or losses both

I started to feel like I understood what attacks were coming, and knew what to do - plus, I'm at 35 fear!

not sure what to increment next on the fear meter. I'm just not fast enough to do time 3 yet. I could do more remnants or somesuch (eugh)

I did just 5 fear jumps

No reason to not be greedy for a good build

he took special to make sure he could get orig

ares dash 🤢

(not being forced by metal to say this)

it aint much but its honest work, the new 67 pb has become p2 gramps

also shoutout me being shaky and not taking a full screenshot

[rotund hamlet]

damn hestia really hates you

crazy pb though, definitely got it soon

[deft terrace]

3rd time beating typhon, half of the nocturnal arms used now

[rocky steppe]

Stop using evil eye PLEASE

[deft terrace]

[pliant tiger]

its called evil eye cuz its evil of you to pick it

[deft terrace]

ik there are better ones but upgraded evil eye let me do +40% damage not matter what type of dmg so it was pretty good, compared to lets say fang i wouldve been on less than 40% after only a couple encounters besides it was a 0 fear run its not like it was high stakes

[pliant tiger]

next run discordent bell only

[worldly moat]

Well yeah but then fang works on everything

[quick vigil]

Not the first time I pick Gorgon and forget it is an olympian god

[unique oxide]

thanks to a weird bug where i was able to stop time (which is kinda funny with the context of the game) i was able to finish one run in 1 minute

[covert glade]

New anyfear wr confirmed

[mystic void]

blitz is pretty nice

[rare parcel]

No. I find it excessive lol

Lv 10 boons makes it too easy

[deft terrace]

i was honestly so sure i wasnt gonna make this run but somehow i clutched it
first time using medeas aspect

[dawn lantern]

Picking the game back up to 32 with Anubis has been fun times

[olive vigil]

Just me and the boys climbing a mountain

this run should've been dead in the water

[quick vigil]

I may die. But I'll die rich

[rocky steppe]

Region 2 calling card

[analog oasis]

What's so bad about that?

I use it all the time

[pliant tiger]

pixels not running debt 2 probably

so time piece not needed

[quick vigil]

not here indeed

Still took time piece for the lol in Fields

[analog oasis]

Even with Debt 2 its no issue

Basically free fear

[quick vigil]

I have some money now

(keep in mind that I literally bought everything I could, so it could be even more)

[analog oasis]

Bro what-

[quick vigil]

Theorically I even could have played with Time Piece and transformed boons into gold to get like +2k

[analog oasis]

Without Time Piece??

Oh good gravy boats of Valhalla

[quick vigil]

I took Time Piece, but only transformed minor fields rewards

Ok question: if I abandon the run now to try to have the most gold possible, will the seed persist ?

(e.g. I will encounter the exact same rooms and rewards)

[pliant tiger]

nah

[quick vigil]

rip

[pliant tiger]

oh man early access golden rule would've loved this

[pliant tiger]

it is until u see a god that u want in the shop and ur too broke to get it

[analog oasis]

True

Time Piece basically makes it free fear tho

[quick vigil]

and that's it for blades (and for today)

[lethal flicker]

This is fine.

scorch doing 938 DPS and still I was able to stack it up to 999 sometimes

[deft terrace]

p3 took me off guard ive seen ppl talk abt it but i didnt realise it would pop up now

[lethal flicker]

The infinite

[frank stirrup]

i beat 32 fear for the first time today and wanted to share

[dapper canyon]

WAR IS OVER

[frail fern]

gratz!

[dapper canyon]

It took so little compared to 2 to complete hades 1

[coarse island]

If that's the case then here's a random triple scythe throw dodge when I got time slowed on my strength, wantler, no lovers savestate. (it's at the end of the clip btw)

[coarse island]

Yea, possessed array is just so goated. Imagine if you did it with wantler too :3

[coarse island]

Good job!!

You were right about getting to gramps after you got past sirens lol.

Btw does life tax actually do anything in that situation since you take so much damage you basically get one shot anyway?

[latent hearth]

surface victory and i had almost 500hp lol

did get a bit careless at the end but whatever

[latent hearth]

Ω-attack on medea is usable??

[frank stirrup]

yeah it is. the damage is mostly from possessed array though

[graceful edge]

sliiiiiight amount of omega attack damage :>

[quick vigil]

(You don't need to put spoiler tags on the damage board btw)

[latent hearth]

ye ik i had js forwarded this from my friendgroup server and i didnt want to spoil it for them

[quick vigil]

Makes sense

[regal shard]

wheeeee

[lethal flicker]

Howler build goes so hard sometimes

Hand of Hephaestus is off the bottom of the damage chart because it counts separately to Rush blasts but hey

[worldly moat]

Kinda! Some attacks chip for like ~20 so it can save me in niche situations

[coarse island]

Okay, that makes some sense

[viral basin]

When you accidentally leave judgment on for a jeweled pom run but RNGesus keeps your fates' whim.

[worldly moat]

Judgment actually can't break fw

Its hard coded to not give you rerolls unless you break it yourself

another practice 62(strength, no lovers) for the books, my cerb was super clean, hecates ball tweaked tf out, and scylla i kinda wasnt paying attention on, anyway this did feel clean enough to warrant 67 attemps 😌

[viral basin]

What a great feature!

[coarse island]

Nicee. I can't wait to get good enough at Chronos to take 1 hit 😭

I've been practicing him, I just got to p3 again hitless but Clonos get me with triple scythe throw.

[worldly moat]

Everytime theres a clone on screen i just run

Its so easy for them to checkmate you

[rotund hamlet]

youll get it this week for sure

[rare parcel]

Hitless Hecate, woo!

[tired anvil]

https://medal.tv/games/hades-ii/clips/lTxWIBO1ZZTN2p6uy?invite=cr-MSxMNnEsMjAwODQ0MzI4&v=59
Its not the win but I got a clip of a 1 minute sirens and scylla

[covert glade]

Once you upgrade all your arcana cards and weapons fully, you can eventually bring that down to 15 seconds

[rare parcel]

Triple Legendary, let's gooo

[neon mango]

sadly didnt get nimble limbs

[oak bridge]

How tf are you guys taking sub 200 damage from typhon

[gilded ravine]

ally gaming

[rocky steppe]

I normally hitless him, it's just lots of practice and good builds so you can kill him in under a minute

[tall coyote]

dont have a picture for it, but i beat the game (not the epilogue yet i haven't done that) but I got to the credits yayy

[pliant tiger]

[frail fern]

What is your attack rotation for medea skull?

[rocky steppe]

One attack, one special

[analog oasis]

Or just mash Y+X

[valid fossil]

I finally got the platinum in Hades 2, and the last achievement I was missing was from the Great Chaos Below challenge. I didn’t need that many attempts, this was the build I used. Was it just a lot of luck, or can I still brag about it?

[frail fern]

doing that on keyboard doesnt work xD

[analog oasis]

Oh

Sorry

[rocky steppe]

Luck

[pliant tiger]

figurine start is diabolical

[old mountain]

Left click into right-click

[quick vigil]

there is far worse

I started my Great Chaos Below with Gorgon Amulet and death arcana

[pliant tiger]

fire start

https://youtu.be/U1vnJh5JV7U

[mystic void]

first 16f clear

[old mountain]

60f next fr fr :P

[quick vigil]

Maybe I finally understood how to play Persephone?

[manic relic]

if only chaos had given me origination this would have popped off insanely

[molten hamlet]

Apparently, Anubis and Poseidon get along quite well..

[quick vigil]

hex did all the job for Chronos

[lethal flicker]

The run where I discovered that Furious Rockets is good, actually

[quick vigil]

the famous "damageless Chronos" (reality: I gave my whole purse to Hermes)

also very nasty Scylla, or should I say Charybdis fight

[static cloud]

new pb 🔥

[pliant tiger]

antler would've sub 7 lowk
