@white dome separate your feedback so people can vote separately on your points

[white dome]

You got it

[dapper laurel]

i bought the game yesterday and experimented the axe, the blades and the staff, but the ranged dont seem to be good

[royal pumice]

Upstairs area 2 character event spoilers ||Can you get a keepsake from Icarus yet? I'm trying to keep track of all who I haven't given/gotten keepsakes from||

[drowsy jackal]

i'd spoiler that if i were you
just to be sure

[green gorge]

Yep, there are spoilers in there for sure

Namely ||pitch black stone||

And ||aspects||

[random wagon]

||Yes you can get a keepsake from Icarus! He gives you an Experimental Hammer||

[royal pumice]

thank!

[drowsy jackal]

ok
so i found a flaw in my uber bonk strat

it's a magnet for stunlocks

[raw spear]

might be missing something - what does the omega cast do if you have Glowing Coal boon? From what I can tell this boon removes the pulse of damage from omega cast, so... not sure if there is any benefit to channelling it

[drowsy jackal]

the time between a button press and an attack landing makes ultra greatswords in dark souls feel snappy by comparison

[random wagon]

I was literally spoiler tagging lol

Well going back to spoiler tag that message lol

[green gorge]

Channel decription says untagged spoilers will be deleted

[random wagon]

Sorry bout dat

[elder bough]

@next yarrow spoiler bosses please.. in feedback

@toxic pawn can you separate your points so i can vote on each

[royal pumice]

I have to be the unluckiest player my boon rng is so bad

[random wagon]

Anyways I need a break from the game been no lifeing it, got a project to get too, bye bye all.

[drowsy jackal]

oh no

OOOHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOO

i think i found a bug that completely destroyed my build

[random wagon]

You got this, even with Bad RNG u can turn it around

[drowsy jackal]

as in - i can't even do a simple attack cause my animation breaks
unless im dumb and i'm using it the wrong way

[random wagon]

What the heck

[raw spear]

did you take some boon that means you're needing mana to attack? 🤔

[elder bough]

damn they REALLY nerfed weak. 10% from 30%, and 3 seconds from 8.

[drowsy jackal]

ok so i'm gonna this cause this is a rather hefty bug, but for now - a word of warning
when using an axe do not combine Hell Splitter with Executioner's Chop - this combo breaks completely and basically renders your attack useless

[elder bough]

oof

assuming you put this in tech support?

[raw spear]

Looks like it makes each attack cost 20 mana so get a lot of regen? 😄

[swift harness]

Oh my god, I just faced|| the Sirens the first time and I gotta say, Super Giant knocked it out of the park again. This is just peak gaming. Peak art. Peak craft. Epic music.||

[drowsy jackal]

yeah it says that the final move in my attack sequence costs 20 magick
but there is no final move with Hell Splitter

[raw spear]

well... a one hit combo means every hit is the final move in the combo , right?
(but yes I agree seems probably unintentional/buggy/shouldn't be possible to pair up)

[drowsy jackal]

cause hell splitter gives you just... one chop
so what ended up happening was - i had 5 magick, couldn't do the "final attack", and my normal attack wouldn't pop either
it played the animation of mel gearing up to hit and then it would interrupt this animation halfway through and the attack wouldn't land

it was like hurrrrr
and then nothing - she would just go back to the normal walk cycle

i even got it recorded

[raw spear]

yeah, like if you try to do an omega attack that you don't have the mana for it whiffs

[drowsy jackal]

yeah but with this combo every attack whiffs

im dropping this run
im at zone 3, 17 health, no insurance and no way to attack

[raw spear]

dash attack may work still?

[drowsy jackal]

muh 810 damage though

[swift harness]

Can someone from Supergiant tell me if ||becoming a sheep is a reference to Cult of the lamb, since we are in a forest that kinda resembles the areas in the game.||

Plus its also a roughlite

[elder bough]

||polymorph is a common ability for witches and its effects are always turning into a sheep, it's possible but imo not very likely||

[lilac ether]

yeah they probably didn't think of that

also guys this isn't a spoiler it happens in erebus, don't worry about it

[elder bough]

good point

[swift harness]

I dunno, i think both companies greatly respect each other so I find it a homage.

It gave me such a laugh the first time.

[lilac ether]

well as they said, polymorphing is a pretty traditional thing ever since stuff like dungeons&dragons, but at this point Supergiant are the only ones who can answer that

[swift harness]

Also can you dodge the polymorph?

[fading ivy]

mhm! Just keep dashing through it!^^

[lime wraith]

it also is ruthlessly efficient at breaking your rythm

just beat her for the first time, didn't take any damage till the polymorph hit and then barely made it alive

[hollow locust]

or if you have enough sprint speed, you can sprint to avoid it

[drowsy jackal]

810 DAMAGE PER SINGLE HIT!

and then daedalus was like "not on my watch you ain't" and broke my axe with an "upgrade"

you wanna know what i did?
after the fight i ran into some ferns and rolled around in them taking 1 dmg per tick

this was too good to be allowed

rip run

[ashen agate]

Death to Chronos

[drowsy jackal]

DEATH TO DAEDALUS for breaking muh axe

[placid sorrel]

anyway to check who you'v given gifts already like in hades 1?

[fading ivy]

oh god, I'm having such a broken run right now but it's so fun😭

[drowsy jackal]

what weapon are you running?

[fading ivy]

it's an incantation you can unlock after playing for a little bit!^^

[placid sorrel]

cheers

[lilac ether]

when is chronos giving me back my sandwich

[fading ivy]

the twin blades, whenever I use my cast my special will home dealing a ton of dmg as I'm firing 16 and then I have a slow ||hex|| that charges almost instantly which gives me +20% crit chance😭

[fading ivy]

truly a bad person for that

[lilac ether]

YEA he should give me my sandwich

[royal pumice]

what hex is that?

[fading ivy]

one called ||"phase shift"||

not sure if that's a spoiler, but just in case

[royal pumice]

you can get selene in erebus so i don't think so

[drowsy jackal]

god i hope they don't nerf the axe
pretty please with cherry on top

[fading ivy]

small update I just got ||cerberus|| (area 3 spoilers) to half hp in 3 shots😭

[fading ivy]

oh yeah right, my bad!

[royal pumice]

i need that build

[fading ivy]

it's so crazy😭

[royal pumice]

this reminds me i haven't seen aphro in like 15 runs i think she blocked me

[elder bough]

woah

[kindred blade]

axe has a lot of un cancelable animation frames. stuff you can’t dash cancel. it is hard to use so it’s needs damage to justify the risk… there is an upgrade that throws your omega attacks in front of instead of on mel, and of course, every-time i used a max charge omega attack an enemy would sit on top of mel while locked into the spinning animation. i am frantically thinking press all buttons to get away and the game goes no, this is what you committed to.

[elder bough]

@untold drum #h2-feedback message did you have pots unlocked yet, because there are some, just saw them

[drowsy jackal]

yeah but
i was already dealing 810 damage per single hit
and executioners chop would DOUBLE THAT for mere 20 magick
that's just absurd
maybe it's a good thing it bugged out

the biggest damage stack i ever got in hades 1 was around 1,4k
and i've got over 200 hours in that game (pc and ps4)
so dealing 1,6k with a single button press for some pocket change of mana would be just completely broken

you know what's the worst?
it's my hubris - that's what did me in

i could finish that run with just that single upgrade
810 per hit is plenty
but no - bim wanted to double that
double or nothing

so i ended up with nothing

oh well - there's always the next time

[sacred pike]

im having a bad time with the weapons

what goes well with the blades?

and arent they like a worse version of the spear?

[drowsy jackal]

they're more like the gloves from hades 1

[untold drum]

Yeah but they don’t always show up there

[sacred pike]

yeah that sounds more like it

[elder bough]

just like in hades 1

[drowsy jackal]

i found out that doing the nothing personel omega attack behind an enemy and then stabbing in the back 15 times cesar-style worked the best

[elder bough]

shops arent supposed to give you money every time lol

[untold drum]

Unless I was blind and just didn’t see them

[untold drum]

lol gotcha

[sacred pike]

yeah seems like the style

[potent lion]

i just discovered that ||frinos|| can tank hecate's polymorph and there's a special dialogue for that lol

[spare heron]

Should I go about finishing the Hades 1 epilogue before progressing far into Hades 2? are they intertwined? Are there references to the epilogue in hades 2?

[lilac ether]

supergiant themselves said you'll be able to understand the game without having seen the epilogue for the first

[spare heron]

Well, I knew that part, but I was wondering for those who have finished the epilogue if it is worth finishing before going into the second game, apologies for bad wording

[drowsy jackal]

yeah - if you're running a simple build without much fancy stuff the best strategy is to do the dark souls thing and dodge into it instead of away
that orb goes so fast that dodging away from it only slightly delays the inevitable
but when dodging into it your i-frames will protect you and then the orb will have to spend precious time doing a 180 turn

[lilac ether]

honestly, that's up to you. if you wanna play the sequel rn, you won't be missing much

i myself didn't see the epilogue and i'm doing just fine storywise, as there's a huge timeskip

[spare heron]

alrighty

[verbal isle]

yeah i dont think youd miss much, maybe some relationship dynamic stuff between Hades and the rest of olympus but thats about it

[drowsy jackal]

oh god
not again

please tag this as a spoiler

[sacred pike]

oops didnt think it counted as one

how tot tag

[drowsy jackal]

but without the space in the middle

[royal pumice]

on both sides of the sentence

anyways
ima go get some sleep
and dream about my 810dmg hits

[elder bough]

@dusky charm #h2-feedback message which heat mechanics appear as default in hades 2?

also you should separate your feedback so people can agree with individual points

[dusky charm]

It felt for me like if I would be playing with something like damage control or benefits package. But that's extremely subjective and anecdotal, as I said - not a skilled player.
Also, sorry, I don't really know how devs collate feedback here.

[elder bough]

there is a post about how to give feedback, it asks you to keep individual points separate

[dusky charm]

My bad

[elder bough]

#h2-feedback message @fair bay your dash DOES have invuln frames

it's just the dash has like 8f startup or something

@indigo crest separate your points so we can vote on each separately

[feral knoll]

asking just to see if anyone else is experiencing this does anyone else get a bug where they cant move away from the sides of the screen😭

[fair bay]

I now realize I completely botched my feedback
I meant to say i-frames after taking damage

which is COMPLETELY different

[indigo crest]

ok sure, do you want me to make more messages in feedback?

[elder bough]

oh yep yep i agree totally

getting hit once in a line of projectiles pretty much guarantees the next three land it's frustrating

[fair bay]

it's so bad my guy

or the fish swarms down at Oceanus

I just see flying 3's as my run is taken from my hands

[ember herald]

Good evening

[elder bough]

poseidon CLEARS oceanus it's so funny

[lost turtle]

bro who cooked with the 2nd boss' music omg

[indigo crest]

Agreed, i hope they also put the music from Hades II on spotify as they did with Hades I

[elder bough]

how exactly does scorch work, does it add flat damage to your strikes up to a cap that resets per second?

seems straight worse than poseidon's splash! his does the same extra flat damage but that has no cap AND it's area damage!

[main bobcat]

So real, I was boutta come say this here 😭😭

[indigo crest]

Its more of Dot (damage over time) kind of boon
if you dont pick the "slowe cooker" boon you can stack 1000+ damage with fast weapon and then just run around the arena, dodge and wait for the boss to die

[main bobcat]

Coral crown by Scylla is on Spotify bro it’s ur lucky day

[indigo crest]

WHAAAT IM GONNA GO FIND IT RIGHT NOW

[main bobcat]

Listening atm

[elder bough]

seems to cap at 40 not 1000+...

[main bobcat]

I be vibing in that boss fight

[indigo crest]

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, thank you!
i added it ❤️

[main bobcat]

Is it a hot take to call aphro boons trash

[indigo crest]

are we both talking about the fire efect from Hastia ?
because i was able to get it to 1000

[elder bough]

yeah it's not clear how it works so i didnt think you could do that. seems you can.

[indigo crest]

you just have to attack several times in repetition thats how you get the scorch points up.,

so its much better with fast attacking weapons or specials

[elder bough]

seems straight worse than poseidon cause you're getting equal damage bonus from them but poseidon also gives area damage in a generous cone

the hestia one is the same flat bonus but it takes 0.5s to clear it, and you can stack it faster than it clears

assuming you get the attack one that does +20 on dagger. obviously different weapons and stuff do it different

id rather have all the damage now, and also get area damage

[indigo crest]

i think they are for different playstyles. One is go in, deal some damage and get out and wait again for good opurtunity

and the poseidon one is more of a constant damage, with dashes to avoid any imminent damage

[elder bough]

uh they do the same damage though poseidon's just gives it instantly

[indigo crest]

yes i agree with you on that

[azure gull]

oh how I wish I knew about this channel earlier 😭

[indigo crest]

but im saying the difference is on a PLAYSTYLE

one is for more careful players

and the otherone is more highrisk high reward

[elder bough]

i dont see how. one is simply better in every playstyle and one is worse

damage now is objectively better than the same damage later

[indigo crest]

yeah you probably right 😄
i just think this was the developers intention. Otherwise i think the poseidon is a better choice as well

[elder bough]

poseidon's scales twice as fast with poms too 😭

now that I've figured out what scorch does I will never be taking it again

[indigo crest]

XD

I think it is a possible way to win with it, i managed to do so with daggers and Scorch build, the "slow cooker" boon did a lot of burst damage

@elder bough i sent the screenshot to you in private messages

[elder bough]

#h2-feedback message @azure gull you are told to stay inside the circle not outside. look at the text on screen inside that area

[azure gull]

I'm aware, ||I'm just so used to being distrustful of him and avoiding his attacks that I second guess myself. Can't remember if you can pause in the area or not. I guess it's more of wanting a clarification? Like if you wanted to reject the romance paths in Hades, there was a note that they wouldn't get offended if you said no. When you have the main villain claiming they want to help you, it comes off as deceptive at best||

[elder bough]

#h2-feedback message @oak current it tells you when you get the first one, it's for every 1000 gold you give charon

[oak current]

ooooh, I totally missed that then. thank you!

[marsh trellis]

this game is very cool

[elder bough]

@glacial gazelle you are supposed to separate feedback so devs see what resonates with the community more accurately

we need to be able to agree with your individual points

[glacial gazelle]

Oh okey. Thanks. I'll rework it then

[elder bough]

in case you dont understand, i mean separate into individual posts! so we can react to each

[dusty mirage]

hey, anyone is suffering lag in the game since the update??

like, today i was playinf perfectly fine but now its super lag when i attack

[solemn token]

nop

[manic heath]

I don't kneed to know how but is there a way to prevent getting sheeped in the first boss fight?

[pseudo nova]

yes

[elder bough]

@nova raft #h2-feedback message skelly tells you about god mode in like 3 runs bruh

[stray nexus]

you can dash through the sheeping projectile or if you have enough speed on your sprint just run away

[grave rose]

Just keep timing your dashes, pretty much. That's what I did

[lilac ether]

i just found out you can upgrade your arcana cards limit

[mild flower]

i mean tbf i didn’t get that dialogue at all and didn’t realise god mode was there until i went and searched for it myself

[short haven]

Death to Chronos; Pets for Frinos.

That is all.

[ionic sand]

man the game is awsome but the weapons eh.... the first 2 are good to use but the axe is the most clunky thing ive ever seen... its like controling a n64 character somtimes

[nova raft]

in hades 2?

[elder bough]

Yeah

[nova raft]

okay ty!!

[worldly moss]

Wut? Axe is great just spin in circles forever

[wild chasm]

Tbh the cast weapon and the axe feel clunky, u need good boons and augments to get "better gameplay"

[ionic sand]

agreed completly

[wild chasm]

I just complete a run with each weapon and those feels kinda bad vs the magic staff and the blades

Also is an early access this can be fixed or get better with animations, etc idk what are the plans on it

[elder bough]

@somber kayak please please spoiler bosses bro

[lilac ether]

wha

[elder bough]

In feedback

[lilac ether]

oh okay

[somber kayak]

oh so sorry, thanks for the check!

[quartz slate]

does the ||axe skill|| block it?

I have it unlocked but haven't tried yet

[royal pumice]

haven't tried that but (mechanic) ||after you unlock a "treat" incantation, you'll get another way to prevent it||

[random wagon]

Frinos is best froggo friend 😄

[steel peak]

Yeah, I love playing a ranged game but the magic staff cleans the floor with the torches rn.

Being able to leave the special to hit people with the torches is nice but the attack is wonky.

I kind of like the axe tbh but just did my first run with it tonight, but then I was a Nightmare and Astaroth player in Soul Calibur. /dated reference

(I mean I died partway so gotta try it out some more to feel out the quirks.)

[worldly moss]

isnt the whole game good boons and augments for better gameplay?

[elder bough]

the whole game is not good boons 😆

anybody else get a steam update for hades 2 just now?

[quartz slate]

depends how big, may be steam cloud

[elder bough]

was basically instant to download

[short haven]

Or mini patches/bug fixes?

[elder bough]

it was somebody i know, i didnt get it, myself

[glacial lodge]

There is a 1.84 MB patch, I wouldn't read into it at all

[elder bough]

@arctic crow #h2-feedback message this is not a bug or intentional, it's an oversight

@red ivy id like to agree with only some of your suggested changes but they're all in the same post

[red ivy]

you're refering to the changes to hexes?

[elder bough]

yeah

[red ivy]

yeah ok I will try and seperate them in the future, thanks

[karmic ledge]

Yes. If you want to know how: ||Dash through the curse ball. When you regain your dash, dash through it again. Eventually it will disappear.||

[elder bough]

@pastel bolt continuous damage is hestia's field now but it's bad

just take poseidon, you'll do area damage and scale better.

[pastel bolt]

thx

may your runs be blessed

[elder bough]

@timber oyster you can rebind keys

[timber oyster]

Oh, right, good point! I got used to it after awhile, but it was just surprising at first because they use the same words

Seems like something that would be consistant between games, but I suppose there is no reason it has to be :)

[elder bough]

#h2-feedback message @tired portal the thing you suggested is how it works. you later get more plots, so you could plant 3 nightshades. however it still only takes 5 days. why do you want the timers to last longer?

[tired portal]

Well, it's not necessarily that I want it to take longer; it's just more annoying when multiple runs end past ||Oceanus|| and that Nightshade's been fully grown since Erebus. I just want better access to time-gated materials (early game specifically) is all.

[glacial lodge]

@earnest venture Bug reports can be filed in-game with , they don't belong in the feedback channel

[earnest venture]

F10 just froze my game 😭

[glacial lodge]

It may not be frozen, it pauses the game and opens a window for the bug reporter. Try alt-tabbing

It is supposed to pop up in front, but sometimes it gets lost behind

[earnest venture]

Ahh okay, cool. Posting that in there now.

[glacial lodge]

@wild pawn You can report translation errors in game using the bug report feature

[wild pawn]

Didn't know, my bad

[elder bough]

@zinc parcel boons from people you encounter in erebus are not spoilers
#h2-feedback message

[glacial lodge]

You don't need to police spoiler use, @elder bough. An overly cautious spoiler tag is better than no spoiler tags, anyway

[elder bough]

fair enough

[elder bough]

can i ask people to add spoilers?

[glacial lodge]

While people spoiler tagging things in feedback is a considerate thing to do, the devs do not currently have spoiler tags as a requirement in the feedback guidelines. I know you have been asking people from time to time, but it is not required

If people post in here without spoilers, then by all means remind them

[elder bough]

id really like to be able to support ideas in feedback without spoiling later content for myself... would you kindly bring this up to the ones in charge of setting channel rules?

[glacial lodge]

I can pass it along, but I can't do anything more than that

[elder bough]

much appreciated, thanks!

[autumn rock]

Yeah it is a bit of a pain, I've already been spoiled on several bosses and areas from there

[elder bough]

yeah i know the name of every single boss by now. unwillingly.

[autumn rock]

From, you know, trying to do the good early access tester things 😅

[glacial lodge]

As an aside, if you (the general you) ever need to reach out with a server question or request, feel free to DM the @upper frost bot, it works very well as an official channel

[elder bough]

@mystic shadow ive seen screenshots showing hearts so hold out hope that you'll unlock that soon!

[mystic shadow]

Yea that’d be nice. They could make it a potion u have to brew too in order to unlock it

[elder bough]

yeah I bet it's a concoction

[dim sluice]

So, I've done three runs so far and I've heard at least two pronunciations for Melinoë: Melin-oh-ee and Melin-oy. Which is correct?

[elder bough]

i dont think ive heard the second one, maybe you misheard?

[glacial lodge]

@red jewel #h2-feedback message per the feedback guidelines, please separate out your feedback into one post per piece of feedback and not a single grouping of thoughts. This allows for individual 👍 reactions per idea and conveys what resonates with the community to the devs more accurately. Thank you

[red jewel]

whoops sorry I missed that bit!

[eager wraith]

@rough pendant #h2-feedback message I'm 99% sure that the bone-gathering weapon will refresh after your next run similar to the equivalent mechanic in Hades 1

[rough pendant]

I don't think I swore? lol

[eager wraith]

Oh thank god, I was worried I phrased myself wrong, I meant no offence

It's definitely strange that it does target weapons you don't have, though (I wonder if they'll change this through feedback or if it's intentional)

[rough pendant]

if that's so, I have terrible luck. It's been on the same one for at least 4 runs now

[elder bough]

you said the poop word :3

[blazing leaf]

hey how do i find out who ive given nectars to in this one?

[rough pendant]

yeah, I realize I said shoot luck haha

[elder bough]

it comes way too late into the game imo

[blazing leaf]

oh so its a later on feature?

[elder bough]

yeah ive definitely seen a screenshot showing hearts

however I am 10 hours+ in and still dont see it, ive had the codex for a while now

[blazing leaf]

yea i have the book but its pretty incomplete. eh, guess ill just start randomly giving nectars out then lol

[timid elk]

for just the first nectar you can check the keepsake case

tbh i haven't come across enough nectars to start building out relationships yet

[blazing leaf]

ohhhhh okay yeah this all i needed, i can figure it out off that, yea thanks alot this works!

[elder bough]

@unborn pond #h2-feedback message
scorch damage adds to a pool of damage which drains over time. there is no limit to how high the pool can stack, but it only drains at a certain speed per second. each attack stacks some scorch damage onto the pool.

[glacial lodge]

Hey @inner prawn, please separate you feedback into individual posts for each idea, per the channel guidelines. Thank you

[serene stream]

From my understanding, it’s based on interactions. So just keep interacting with people and their info will pop up into the grimoire!

[blazing tinsel]

Return to shadow now!

Stuck in my head

[unborn pond]

So it’s like one 40 damage over 1 sec and you can stack it indefinetly ? But technically there will only be as much stack max as how much you can attack in a second ?

[elder bough]

it adds to a pool of damage which will all eventually drain. it drains at 40 per second, and each of your hits adds 20 to the pool.

[eager wraith]

@elder bough #h2-feedback message Partially sure that this was because you primed your attack during the i-frames, which disables the i-frames, like in Hades 1 (Assumedly)

I would honestly not miss this mechanic if it were removed, though, you're right

[elder bough]

i have 200 hours on h1 and never noticed that this happened, are you sure that's a thing?

[glacial lodge]

It is a thing in Hades 1

[eager wraith]

Pretty certain, but lemme check to make sure

[elder bough]

it just makes the dash feel even worse here imo

i dont even have a dash attack, just a dash then an attack

[eager wraith]

Yep you lose invulnerability as soon as you press Attack (or assumedly also Special and maybe Cast) mid-dash in H1

[elder bough]

it makes sense on axe, but not here when my attack comes out after the dash is all the way over

[eager wraith]

I personally have been finding the dashing to be fine in H2, but having Mel be immune to the Hades-family curse of voided i-frames could be a welcome change (I think it's a kind of neat enough mechanic once you're aware of it, but being aware of it is meta knowledge that currently is never communicated)

[elder bough]

@astral wigeon your request would enable very easy savescumming.

[eager wraith]

I understand what you're saying in that the dash attacks feel like they append the dashes, rather than augmenting the dashes, but funnily enough if the information about voided i-frames was part of the knowledge the game provides you with, the new feel of the dash-attacks would plays into the optimal way to input them

They could capitalize on it, or could remove the mechanic

[elder bough]

i guess id rather have an actual dash attack!

id be happy

[eager wraith]

Although unless i'm wrong the game would still be safe against that if one were allowed to quit out still but be restored to after the choice

simultaneously the current system has never posed me any problems (and i admit that on a couple of occasions late-game i used it to my advantage in H1 )

[elder bough]

i think you're right, the solution is not to enable restoring saves on force quit but to save more frequently.

as in right after you make a boon choice or see the random boon from charon

[eager wraith]

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if that already happens as a backup

[elder bough]

i think id be surprised as they just reset the run right now

[eager wraith]

oh wait I think that's right actually

[elder bough]

itd be weird to have this highly visible save system then not tell you about some of the saves being done lol

[eager wraith]

I once had the game get really confused when I quit at a point I wasn't supposed to in H1 and I think it reset the run

[astral wigeon]

A menu bug almost cost me a run because I couldn't safely quit and almost had to give up or ALT+F4 the game. There should be a more normal save system for a potentially unstable, beta version of the game.

[eager wraith]

What was the menu bug?

[astral wigeon]

Stuck in boon selection, can't select a boon.

[elder bough]

you can't have this in a system where saves continue into the main game after early access is done i think

[eager wraith]

Weird, on all input methods?

Oh wait, if you weren't already using a controller you'd only have 1 input method

[astral wigeon]

I had to switch between mouse and keyboard multiple times to randomly select a boon and escape.

[astral wigeon]

The save system shouldn't work like this in the finished realese either. It's very inconsiderate to anyone who might have a crash or lose power during a chamber.

[elder bough]

i find it very reasonable to reset a run for force quitting in a roguelike. you could easily reset every time you take damage in a room otherwise.

[eager wraith]

Sounds like a very strange bug though, good that we're talking about it here in case a dev sees and it's able to be addressed (Did you press to report it while it was happening?)

[astral wigeon]

Who's gonna do that though, restart the entire game every time you get hit to have a "perfect" run? Even if someone does want to do that, why not let them? It's a silly way to play, but it's a single-player game. Why punish players who do nothing wrong with potentially an hour or more of completely lost progress just to punish some hypothetical player not playing the way the devs want?

[astral wigeon]

Yeah, it's been reported.

[elder bough]

i definitely wouldnt do that. i see what you're getting at. I am happy with the way it is right now, but I also wouldn't complain if it were changed to what you're suggesting.

[eager wraith]

This is an interesting conversation for sure but it's not as black and white as we're making it out to be. Freedom of choice is important but as a designer it's good to put some safeguards so that players don't optimize the fun out of a game (because often they will)

[elder bough]

i think i just got the shield that comes up if you take too much damage, glad to see it still exists in hades 2.

#h2-feedback message
what are protected/safe circles?? i did not know about this

@somber kayak ^

[astral wigeon]

Save scumming in XCOM isn't the intended way to play either, but people still do it and have fun. Except that those devs have never been VINDICTIVE about punishing players who do it, the game even gives them a slightly hidden option to make save scumming more effective if players REALLY want to.

[sterile plinth]

(will note, you can recover your mid-run progress even after needing to alt-f4 or a crash. There are some steps near the end of #h2-tech-fixes )

[astral wigeon]

Cool, will look.

[eager wraith]

Am I misinterpreting you or are you claiming that the current save system is in place to spite players, rather than just to enforce a simple no-takebacks rule on desicions, because if so, that's a little far

[dull lily]

People save scum? Just take the death and enjoy the game

[lunar wigeon]

is some kind of Pool of Purging present on this game yet?

[eager wraith]

I'm glad that XCOM has found a way to address it so gracefully, though, I didn't know of that

[dull lily]

No shame in dying 5 or 500 times to finish the game

[eager wraith]

Not on deaths, on decisions (like taking random chance events for example)

[somber kayak]

it's a concotion at some point
||the circles with the moon in them become little shielded areas the first time you walk over them, enemies and attacks can't enter for about 5 seconds or so? forgot the name of the upgrade||

[dull lily]

Even worse, embrace rng you strawberry

[elder bough]

awesome!

[dull lily]

Sometimes I swear, Hades 2 might be many people's first rogue like

[astral wigeon]

Yeah, it's the "random seeds" option. If I remember correctly, you toggle it in the options menu and every action plays out differently even if you reload a save and do something exactly the same way.

[dull lily]

Rng and death are game's constants

[eager wraith]

Oh yeah that does sound like a great feature, perfect fix to the issue

[sturdy pagoda]

finally, a game where you can play random seeds that give you random seeds

[astral wigeon]

Is it a spoiler to ask ||if there are eventually different things you can plant||?

[sturdy pagoda]

Hm, probably not much of a spoiler, I think. It's even possible ||even in the first biome|| if you ||get a particular boon||, but in general, you can see in the crossroads ||when you go to plant that you have an entire inventory tab for it which would imply the presence of a choice of things to plant||

[echo girder]

the cat ...... ||lives||

[elder bough]

@lunar cipher #h2-feedback message melinoe immediately replies that she's seen that boss already so it's fine imo

[elder bough]

@visual marlin #h2-feedback message you're supposed to separate points so we can vote separately

[ionic birch]

I made it to the final boss of the second biome, and immediately died lol

[versed quest]

How do you even handle the torch weapon

because this weapon is a bit confusing ngl

[green gorge]

@ocean gyro please do not discuss feedback in #h2-feedback, if you wish to do so use #h2-discussion and make a new post with your feedback. Thanks

[ocean gyro]

For sure! @green gorge

[stiff hawk]

i'm so mad. i was already expecting there to be ||more than one phase in the chronos fight but my brain blanked out before i could comprehend what the mechanics of the 2nd phase were 😭 ||. I REALLY THOUGHT THAT WAS GOING TO BE THE RUN and now im banging my head against the wall but anyways ggs go next

[wild vector]

can someone send me a screenshot of the graphic settings?

[agile siren]

fwiw the same thing happened to me... and lots of other players. those attacks right at the beginning of ||the second phase are kinda mean ngl but it's in character and the next time you'll know what to expect and do so it's not too bad imo||

[quartz slate]

I had 4 hp when I first got there, I survived a few attacks and then the inevitable happened

that’s the farthest I’ve ever been

[ionic birch]

Oof. I had about 15 I think. Made through a few attacks. ||just when the song was picking up the pace, I died lol||

[ionic birch]

Me too!

[quartz slate]

I died right after that

[ionic birch]

Just like me for real, for real

[fading ivy]

yess, it so cute!!

[lyric forge]

how do i get ambrosia besides buying it from broker?

also since|| dark ||is picked by hand, do i just have to luck out ||when entering chaos chambers||?

[warm moon]

I did remembered having bought it, not sure about this tho

[brazen quest]

where do i find g rock and copper ?

*bronze

[fading ivy]

g rock I don't remember but you can find copper ||when going to the city (first arear) in the overworld and mine it with the pickaxe|| (upstairs spoilers)

[brazen quest]

ooh thanks

[versed quest]

Can I just

opt out of the third area boss please

[delicate zodiac]

Twitter people who are mad that Hestia looks like a grandma are stupid

[drowsy jackal]

Oh yeah I saw that

And then they compared it to some big booba anime waifu and were all like “see? This design is better!”

And I’m like

[delicate zodiac]

[drowsy jackal]

I got again to fight Scylla, I was almost there. Does seeing ||nightmares with Chronos laughing|| mean something, like ||I have been re-trying too many times|| or anything similar?

[drowsy jackal]

Oh why did I click this?

[lilac ether]

guys i have a hot take

[drowsy jackal]

This one’s on me though

[lilac ether]

i love hades 2 😭

[quartz slate]

real

[drowsy jackal]

Me too
Shame it doesn’t love me back lmao

[lilac ether]

yeah it doesn't love me either

[drowsy jackal]

Yeah does your attack button work ?

[lilac ether]

it does, just not against the final boss

then it just kind of forgets how to do its thing

[drowsy jackal]

Well then - trust me - it loves you more than it loves me

[lilac ether]

i don't know love. does the game actually love me

[oak jasper]

When are the OST going to be avaiable on spotify ?

[drowsy jackal]

[wraith moon]

it already is

check out darren korb's page

[oak jasper]

there is only a single one

[brazen quest]

are there weapon aspects ?

i cant seem to find em or idk how to get them

[rugged inlet]

Yeah, you unlock them through an incantation you get through Chaos after a few runs

[drowsy jackal]

Man
I sure hope Jen draws ||narcissus|| with a pretty yet punchable face

[pulsar blade]

is it just me or are boons way less common in hades 2

[drowsy jackal]

I feel the opposite, actually
I feel like I’m getting more boons

There’s less gods, sure - it’s still early access

It I’m getting a lot of cool boons

[pulsar blade]

in the first game i would get to hades with like 20 boons minimum, now i get to || chronos || and im lucky if i have 10

[drowsy jackal]

Ok
How many of those boons were actually making a difference?

[pulsar blade]

im currently in a run at || scylla || with literally 2 boons, and i have only once rejected a boon given the choice

[pulsar blade]

quite a lot of them most of the time

i would say around 80% for most runs

[drowsy jackal]

Like - I don’t mean to crap on either of those games
But what I meant is that in hades 2 I’m getting a lot of boons that really change my gameplay style
While in hades 1 it was more like… I’ve had 6 boons that really affected my build and everything else was a bonus

A boonus, if you will

[fading ivy]

The rest of the ost has been getting uploaded btw, just wanted to give a heads up!^^

[pulsar blade]

i mean bonuses matter, quite a lot as a matter of fact

[drowsy jackal]

Iunno - maybe I’m just wrong
I haven’t play enough to objectively say if it’s giving you less or more

But subjectively - I feel like I’m getting more worthwile stuff that really makes a difference, you know what I mean ?

[lilac ether]

mannnn i love hades 2 so much

[pulsar blade]

i have to say i fundamentally disagree with the implication every boon has to be altering the gameplan signicantly to be worthwhile
even if a boon would give you a flat stat boost(which none of the boons do that and nothing else) a run-specific boost is a run specific boost and i genuinely really don't feel powerful at all at the later stages

[lilac ether]

ohh i love the song they put in spotify

[echo falcon]

i think its just melinoe has more types of boons than zagreus, like magick regen and omega variants

[drowsy jackal]

True

Or maybe I’m just in this honeymoon period where everything feels new and exciting

And sometimes even broken
||im gonna make that 1,6k build work before they patch it out lmao||

[echo falcon]

yeah this is me as well lol

i still cant believe that ea just dropped and it already has more content than hades 1

[drowsy jackal]

Oh yeah
And it was so soon after the tech test

[fading ivy]

I love the I am gonna claw out your eyes one, so cool to me for some reason

[pulsar blade]

i need to run an experiment
i've been feeling melinoe is significantly less powerful than zagreus on average but i have to know if this is because im used to running upgraded zagreus
im just going to boot up hades 1 and disable every mirror upgrade and do a run with a base aspect weapon and see what happens

[drowsy jackal]

When tech test ended I was like “oh it’s gonna be like two or three months before EA starts - I’ve got time to finish other games”
And then suddenly

[fading ivy]

love the bossfight for it as well tbh

[drowsy jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/a-few-moments-later-gif-20230109

[echo falcon]

||its what i hoped that EM furies would be like tbh||

[fading ivy]

yeah inded, it dropped really fast after the technical test, it was crazy!!

[bright snow]

If I buy Hades 2 in early access will I have to pay for the full game as well?

[haughty iris]

No

[bright snow]

thenks!

[glad oyster]

oh, is it known there's gonna be more gods? the existing set doesnt quite vibe with me so far tbh

[blazing seal]

Probably Ares and Dionysus since those are the remaining olympians.

[ionic sand]

I feel like boons are way less impactfulk on this game compared to hades 1.

[late abyss]

agreed, I find myself going for doors other than boons as a result

[pulsar blade]

it seems to me like they purposefully avoided giving anything just straight up damage with 0 caveats and it makes melinoe feel so weak even in the late game

[flat stone]

Agreed, most of the boons feel very milquetoast compared to the first game

Zeus going from chain lightning to the blitz thing has been particularly disappointing

No more zap builds

[pulsar blade]

what i wouldn't give to run zeus chain lightning with sister blades but alas

[frozen forge]

Is blitz at all feasible? It looks so incredibly bad that I never want to pick it

[candid vortex]

I think its part of a way to make you use your entire arsenal, boon wise

[ionic birch]

Using it with the axe special is not bad

[candid vortex]

like you need to set up your attacks using other abilities

[pulsar blade]

enemy design already forces it, you are just actually weaker in hades 2 and not in a good way imo

[candid vortex]

thats fair

[versed quest]

The difficulty spike in the 3rd area is something ngl

[candid vortex]

personally I dont think its that bad, but I dont know your play style

[frozen forge]

Hades 2 feels a lot more like searching for chunky attacks (Hephaestus, Selene, big cast boons, some hammers) and mostly using those and running around waiting for cooldowns otherwise

[candid vortex]

my biggest gripe is it feels like the boon pool is so vast I dont get many attack ones

[pulsar blade]

funny thing is, if you have a ranged weapon area 3 is the easiest area imo

[frozen forge]

Seems much harder to get a build together that does consistent damage

[versed quest]

tbf Ive only been there in like my most recent run so Im just confused what's happening XD

[frozen forge]

I think part of that is there are a lot fewer second tier boons that are actually useful. Stuff like jolted and rupture. It’s possible duos/legendary boons/the elemental stuff is supposed to fill that role - I just don’t see it much yet

[candid vortex]

I so far find all the boobs in game to be top tier

[frozen forge]

Second tier like you can’t get them until you have other boons from that god already. Stuff that further upgrades your abilities with additional effects

Oh wait joke I’m slow ignore lmao

[candid vortex]

🤠

[sleek cloak]

Very true, there needs to be at least 4 boons offered by default imo

[candid vortex]

posiden really wants me to have oceans bounty atm

[pulsar blade]

funnily enough i almost always rerolled poseidon rooms in hades 1, now i always take his rooms if at all possible he's just that much better than every other available god

[sleek cloak]

I literally had a run where I was fishing for the Aphro attack boon, I met her like 4 times, forced her once with the keepsake and she did NOT want to offer me the boon. Fought the final boss with no attack boon and got destroyed.

[drowsy jackal]

I need to find someone to redraw this emote for me
Make it a Mel holding an F icon

[quartz slate]

Poseidon sprint and damage boon is bonkers

just run around

[green gorge]

@opal lion please report bugs in game by pressing thanks

[opal lion]

Didn't know that, will do ^^

[white sentinel]

Hey everyone, does anyone know what the heart icon with the clock on the characters means? Does it mean that a new interaction will open up for me as I play? Or that a new interaction will open up in the next update?

[white swan]

Is it possible to combine posiedon + hephaestus sprint

[green gorge]

not in the game yet

[white sentinel]

Thanks

[green gorge]

@buoyant linden please report bugs by pressing thanks

[buoyant linden]

ok sorry i didnt the first time

[frail basalt]

Boons with the same class like in this case (both are dash/sprint boons) are mutually exclusive

If you have one of them and are offered the other, the former is sacrificed to raise rarity of the latter

[stiff hawk]

Hey! does anyone know how to check boons in game? I saw someone talking about getting it from an incantation but ive already unlocked ||Vows of the Unseen||

[feral edge]

there will be another one later on

[stiff hawk]

ooh thanks! is it far though 🥲

[fast pumice]

Hecate Abs > Nemesis Biceps > Boobs

[white swan]

Ic makes sense. The cooldowns on the heph boons are killing me

[candid vortex]

trust me Im very much in agreeance

[versed quest]

Using an epic Solar ring rn

it is unbelievably busted omg

[green gorge]

@outer latch we'd rather you not use the discord reply feature for either discussion of feedback or when writing out your own, thanks

if you want to discuss feedback do so in #h2-discussion

[outer latch]

Thanks Aggy :)

[fast pumice]

I'd spar with Hecate for days if it meant I could see those abs in action constantly

[feral edge]

I tbh don't know the exact requirement for it, ||but I unlocked it after a run where I got all boons of one god (not in one run but in general) and beating chronos for the 4th time so unsure what exactly it triggered but I assume the god boons||

[wild vector]

can someone send me a screenshot of the graphic settings?

[green gorge]

@vast skiff please report bugs by pressing . Thanks

will do that. thank you!

#h2-feedback message @smoky palm (3rd area spoilers) Out of curiosity, have you been ||following the golden petals on the ground to get to the golden boughs? I haven't had the experience of having trouble finding them, but I've seen a lot of individuals who are also having the same difficulty, i'm wondering if it isn't entirely clear the petals are useful in this way ||

[smoky palm]

||I've followed them to the exit and missed the boughs before on some of the maps||

[candid vortex]

well, more kosher way this time, to whoever designed the mage to be built like that, I want you to know I love you

[dull lily]

Hey so how big is the game? No spoilers please

[eager wraith]

||Hmmm maybe I just haven't seen those maps yet, hopefully the petals leading from the entrance help you find the rest at least, good the devs have the feedback ||

[dull lily]

Also why do characters imply Zagreus and his family have been killed?

[eager wraith]

4.09 GB

[dull lily]

You intergelactic goat

[eager wraith]

(which is surprisingly very well compressed compared to the first)

[dull lily]

I meant how big content wise

[eager wraith]

Harder to say without digging into spoilers lol

[median sequoia]

Pretty big

[midnight badger]

It's way bigger to be honest.

Like slightly more than double from the previous game IMO

[eager wraith]

If you're using H1 standards to judge H2 it's like 120%, if you're using H2 standards to judge H2 my estimate is it's like 70%

(My estimate might not be very good since I haven't seen everything in it firsthand yet)

What I mean to say is it's clear there's more to come, but there's a lot here already

[wild vector]

can someone send me a screenshot of the graphic settings?

[eager wraith]

alr 1 moment

[dull lily]

Any tips to beat first boss?

[orchid glacier]

Kinda huge for me but you can ||dash into the circle||, I didn’t know that until a while after beating lmao

[pulsar blade]

also dodge into the|| polymorph projectile|| to dodge it, after like 5-6 dodges it should dissappear

[orchid glacier]

It helps with melee dmg but I think it’s relevant…

[drowsy jackal]

Don’t get sheep’d (dodge into the orb and use iframes)
use specials to see which one is fake and which one is real (fake ones flash green when hit)
That one AOE attack leaves heck open to attacks
Wave attacks usually come out in pairs - either one at a time or two side by side

[pulsar blade]

also if you are within melee and she charges and executes her double green slash, the followup comes quicker than you expect, dodge earlier

[drowsy jackal]

All of those things create openings for you to dish out some serious damage

Ye

Or just get a build that deals 810 damage per hit and kill her in 6 attacks lmao

[drowsy jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/meonly-gif-19710542

Whaaaa-

[dense zephyr]

bigger than hades 1 but probably around 70% complete

[versed quest]

OK is it just me or is the final boss actually a bit overtuned

because omg I practically have to do it hitless at this point

[tranquil gyro]

||do you have the eris blessing?||

[versed quest]

not even that

and my hp was around 175 ish

The mere existence of Hades 2 implies spoilers for Hades. In this essay, I will

• 8 hours later *

[lilac ether]

man i love hades 2

[fading ivy]

Honestly same

[fervent otter]

It also goes away if you block it with ||frog familiar||, first boss even says a line when you do it

[lilac ether]

also i found out how you get bronze. ||it's in the surface||

[versed quest]

wait you could actually dodge it??????

[fading ivy]

Nice! I went to look it up yesterday as well and then went to get some! You can unlock some of the coolest things with it!!:D

[cunning obsidian]

yep just keep dodging it until it disappears

[eager wraith]

#h2-feedback message @flint hollow Just to clear things up, Encounters are bascically Fights, and Locations are bascically Rooms ala 'Chambers' from Hades 1, though unfortunately 'Location' feels a lot like 'Region', whereas 'Chamber' was much clearer . In the case of the third Region ||there can be multiple Encounters in one Location,|| and some Locations, like Shops, don't have an Encounter/fight in them. Regions are ofc the different areas, distinct by their own titles and different aesthetics.

[versed quest]

I just take in the thing immediately and just be a cute sheep running for my life

[lilac ether]

just got the last weapon and oh god it's BUSTED

[fading ivy]

You mean the ||skull||?

[lilac ether]

yesssssss

[fading ivy]

Yeah I love it, it's so cool

Super strong😭

[subtle belfry]

|if you get a familiar like frinos you can just kite it into them|

[versed quest]

I actually hate how busted the last weapon is compared to everything else

because why arent the other weapons like this

[sage mural]

Sorry for interupting but do we have confirmation of weather or not the last three gods from the old game will make it to hades 2?

[fading ivy]

Especially the special on it is so good it's insane, and with hamers it's even better

[flint hollow]

Cheers. I appreciate you taking the time to explain it

[fading ivy]

I don't think we do no, so we'll have to wait and see iirc!:)

[eager wraith]

No problem! The change between the games took me a while to get used to as well

[versed quest]

honestly havent found a good way to use the special tbh, I just use it to clear multiple enemies at once, bosses ehhhh, especially since there's no i-frames during that

[fading ivy]

Yeahh, I get that, I just got a good boon and played around with it a bit, very fun imo!

But yeah, the special alone is not too good on bosses indeed

[versed quest]

also my omega cast is a purple tier solar flare

it's unbelievably busted

[fading ivy]

Oh god

Yeah that sounds very strong, damn😭
Hopefully the run goes well!!

[versed quest]

I got my ass beat by ||chronos|| in my last run

[fading ivy]

Don't forget to mark spoilers pls:)

[versed quest]

no one saw anything :3

[supple magnet]

anyone else having problems with the 2nd phase of ||Chronos||? I find there's so much stuff going on on the screen that it's really hard to tell what's happening

[vagrant finch]

It’s mostly a matter of figuring out attack patterns, just keep going at it

[fading ivy]

I've died to it twice but that was bcs I was stupid lmao, I think it's not too bad once you get used to||his|| patern, but that's just my opinion of course!

[versed quest]

I honestly dont have that much of a difficult time reading, but it's usually ||the orbs around him|| that messes me up

[supple magnet]

thank u guys, knowing that someone managed to beat him is encouraging to me:)

[fading ivy]

Good luck!! You got this!!:D

[edgy flower]

oh so basically same strat as "hug dad while he shoots fire" in hades 1. love that. also v helpful as i am struggling with boss 1 in a way that infuriates me

[tribal vine]

was anyone else caught super off guard by the ||hot springs|| in the main camp?? cuz i was lol

[supple magnet]

i felt like i was playing an otome game lmao..

[dull lily]

Auto attack is good?

[toxic girder]

you mean normal attack? thats the staple of some builds

[pliant shale]

I feel like the game is a bit easier than Hades 1 no?

[bleak stream]

Did they change Mel's voice? Or am I so tired that I'm imagining things

[woeful kite]

First time I found the hot springs I streamed for my friends who didnt know the game. They thought I was playing a dating sim or something xD

[hollow fulcrum]

Do they have any plans to update the|| keepsakes|| so that there are pictures there and not only some Goofy ahh ring/circle with a fking tag with a letter

[stiff hawk]

those are just placeholders, full release will cmoe with actual icons

[pliant shale]

obviously

also some boons have just letters

[stiff hawk]

yeah, ||chaos and artermis|| boons to be precise

[timid lagoon]

oh my god, the hot springs ||are pure fanservice, I love it :D||

[lilac ether]

i wasn't cause i got spoiled

what i didn't expect was for ||odysseus to be into melinoé||

[tribal vine]

truuue

after only 1 drink too

[lilac ether]

yeah but it makes sense

||he always strook me as a ladies man to some extent||

[orchid glacier]

wait... when he spins with fire you can hug him and it does no damage in hades 1...? holy..

[edgy flower]

haha! it's a speedrunner's strat and so i personally find it hard to execute!

[obsidian gazelle]

Hi, I heard there was a patch today? Is there anywhere I can read the patch notes?

doesn't he basically say exactly that?

[digital zinc]

you probably got a reward from ||that witch in the over world that changes your size||

[storm halo]

more or less

[bleak stream]

Yep that was it. Thanks

[ionic sand]

Is it just me or are boons less impactfull now, i felt way more powerfull with a zeus boon on hades 1 than now and what did they do to aprhodite… she only applys weak on dash now 😭

[smoky shore]

First end-of-area boss spoiler: ||is it possible to dodge or somehow avoid the transmutation to sheep? It feels very difficult to dodge, and I stopped trying to dodge it because the later it transforms you the more difficult it becomes to try to survive as a sheep due to the staggered adds. ||

[tired portal]

You can just ||keep dashing through the hex until it dissipates||; it'll take a bit of practice

[midnight needle]

||You can just dodge through it a few times or bait it to hit an add. ||

[lilac ether]

don't worry it's not a spoiler

[smoky shore]

||Ooh I didn’t realise you can bait it to hit the adds, that’s devious||

[tired portal]

Better safe than sorry

[hollow wadi]

||Highly recommend dashing into it, then back and forth. Usually dissappates after 4 dashes or so. ||

[pliant shale]

Why do we not see some characters in the codex? Like the spider, nemesis etc

They are not shown until some times?

[gentle yarrow]

I think you have to talk them a certain number of times first

[pine swan]

Yeah they never appeared for me until i spoke to them around 2-3 times each

[stiff hawk]

I had a question, when you plant something and it says 8, is it 8 mins or 8 encounters?

[pine swan]

encounters

[stiff hawk]

hmm thanks

[pliant shale]

pretty sure I've talked to skelly more than 5 times already

[stiff hawk]

skelly is right there in the first page

between dora and charon

[pine swan]

Have you given any nectar yet? That might be a prerequisite for some

[pliant shale]

not for me

[pliant shale]

yeh 1 for the keepsafe

[pine swan]

Hmm that's odd, i have him in the book and i've only given him one nectar

[stiff hawk]

weird, probably a bug

[hollow wadi]

I think the reason you can't find him in the codex is because there is no Skelly, obviously. Now Schelemus on ther other hand... /s

[worldly vault]

omg after dying to scylla Chronos came up on the death screen taunting me and I've never been so pissed off at a video game villain

[willow owl]

REAL

[worldly vault]

kudos honestly. he is so annoying i love it

[stiff hawk]

anyone else feel like selecting the tools is grindy than it has to be?

like, I never fished once because i knew id miss out on minerals or seeds

[honest vapor]

Chronos is a dweeb, can't wait to smash his face in again

[tame axle]

hello ! didn't know where to start so i'm asking here just in case, i got to cronos' second phase and all of a sudden i couldn't move anymore, like i could attack and turn around but couldn't move normallly... is that a bug ? or a mechanic i missed ?

[stiff hawk]

probably a bug

[tame axle]

it was the first time i got so close to defeating him in his second phase

i'm devastated, but thanks for the answer !

[drowsy jackal]

okay 👏
enough messing around - time to get that 1,6k build going again

wish me luck!

like - i don't even care about clearing a run now - i just wanna see that beeg number

[crystal pier]

yea, I'm glad the tablet and rod are attached to the familiars lmao

[visual warren]

where can I let supergiant know about bugs?

[drowsy jackal]

press in game

[visual warren]

thanks

[frosty escarp]

Do you guys know where I can send feedback for the translators?

[lilac ether]

i think there's no specific place for that, unfortunately

[frosty escarp]

oh ok, thankyou

[lilac ether]

you probably mean the brazilian translation- i'm playing it too and there's a thing or two that could be different

[frosty escarp]

yeah

[stuck chasm]

The hades2 feedback channel is probably the best place

[frosty escarp]

thank you

[drowsy jackal]

||uh-oh vanquished||

i love this game

[lean cloak]

Hello! At the end of a run, does Mel die and resurrect? Or, the way I've understood it, does she just use some sort of escape spell super fast each time?
If it's the latter, does it ever get explained by the game?

[mortal shuttle]

y'all this is the no spoilers channel, reminder to tag spoilers for anything past erebus

[tidal lagoon]

How do the bosses compare to the first game without spoilers?

[drowsy jackal]

they're more... complex

they usually tend to have 2-3 more attacks and such

[torpid venture]

I would say they are harder and more complex

[wet jewel]

More move-sets, less reskins

[mortal shuttle]

my perception is that they're about on par with the Extreme Measures versions of the H1 bosses

[tidal lagoon]

That's cool I saw video of the first one and it has cool mechanics. That's the only one I know about

[jaunty gulch]

Definitely more complex than the first runs of bosses of H1. It's been a fun puzzle figuring out patterns

[wet jewel]

2nd boss’ music is my absolute favorite, the lyrics are 🔥

[mortal shuttle]

I do feel like they telegraph their attacks really well, though - I don't remember defeating any of the H1 bosses first-try, and I did that with the third boss here

[jaunty gulch]

That whole area is just

[mortal shuttle]

(which is maybe just that I'm better at the game in general than I was when I first played H1?)

[tidal lagoon]

Also melinoe powers are better having magic

[jaunty gulch]

Thats entirely possible too which is fun just seeing progression.

[tidal lagoon]

I'm still trying to work up to spend 30 on the game lol I will eventually

[lean cloak]

Is this in response to me? I'm talking about the standard end-of-a-run that happens to everyone hundreds of times, the first time surely in Erebus 😛

[wet jewel]

Even in early access it’s so worth it

[mortal shuttle]

nope, this was to the folks above talking about other bosses including Chronos, sorry for the confusion!

[lean cloak]

np! 😄 and thanks

[fading ivy]

I've just made yet another busted built, if I do 2 attacks in the right order I will have a hit that deals 1500 damage😭

[drowsy jackal]

oh GOD

[fading ivy]

yeahhhhhh LMAO

[drowsy jackal]

im getting my ass kicked so hard

[fading ivy]

I can't finish the run rn, but I will later, should be able to win with this one! :D

[drowsy jackal]

i'm so bad at this

[fading ivy]

understandable😭

[drowsy jackal]

GIMME MY DOUBLE DASH BACK PLEAAAAAAAAAAAASE

[fading ivy]

lmaooooooo

I like it without the double dash for this game tbh! :D

[drowsy jackal]

yeah but it's just...

im so used to it

[hollow wadi]

Honestly, I tried replaying through Hades 1, and I hate the dash mechanic in the first game.

Even with 4 dashes with Athena buff, I'm sitting there eating damage. In this game it's much easier and more rewarding to time dashes with abilities in order to avoid damage

[drowsy jackal]

i can beat lernie with my eyes closed
upside down
with one hand
while playing dark souls with my feet
but ||scylla||?
she's winning 7-2 right now

[fading ivy]

I genuinely love that boss fight and ost so much, once I got the hang of it, it's pretty doable imo!

[drowsy jackal]

yeah the bossfight is great but there's just so much stuff to keep in mind
all your attacks, omegas, hexes, magick, cooldowns, boons, ||NIGHTMARE!||, ||moon phases||, ||some pokemon elemental... stuff|| this does that and that other thing does that different thing but only when that third thing pops
i don't even know what half of it does

meanwhile ||scylla and her crew|| has double the moveset of lernie

[hollow wadi]

That fight I thought was hard at first, but once you learn to ||focus on the drummer, then the guitarist, and finally the singer,|| the fight is a piece of cake. Try to remember to use your Cast to snare/slow them!

[drowsy jackal]

look - don't get me wrong - i'm not complaining, not at all
it's just...
it's a lot to keep in mind

[vapid acorn]

How many ||insta-kill|| attacks does ||Chronos|| have? I'm able to evade the first one, but then I get randomly killed by some other one. Is it always the same with the ||glowing spot|| somewhere?

[fading ivy]

yeahh, there's so much more stuff to actually attack with but I kind love it tbh, a lot more run diversity imo, but yeah, it takes a big of getting used to at first not gonna lie😭

[fading ivy]

yeah, I think the ||glowing spot|| one is the only one, though I may be mistaking of course

[drowsy jackal]

you wanna know what's the worst thing?
i predicted all of this

back before even the tech test started i was like "oh i hope they bring divine dash back otherwise i'm screwed"
and lo-and-behold

i'm screwed

[vapid acorn]

hmm, yeah I'll have to keep an eye out next time, I think I get too into attacking him so I don't notice it after the 1st one he does

[kindred blade]

2nd region boss is more complex than 3rd. which is funny because you are more powerful in 3rd region. but for the 2nd region boss my strategy is to pour all my hate into ||roxy the drummer||

[hidden sleet]

same if you get her out its a lot easier

what farimg tool do yall mostly use

[dapper nacelle]

i usually use the shovel

[hidden sleet]

do you need a lot of plants later on

[drowsy jackal]

oh im gonna pour so much hate into her they'll have to patch her out in the next update

[hollow wadi]

I swap between pickaxe and shovel

||The cat does all of my fishing, and I rarely need the psyche||

[manic hill]

Was there an update? What changed or was added?

[drowsy jackal]

ok no
just kill me hecate

i'm dropping this run and switching weapons

[cunning prism]

This game is so cool

I feel just like when I first started playing hades 1 but more hype cause I know how wild it can get

[drowsy jackal]

BRUH

[sour star]

Yeah Chaos boons are pretty wild

[drowsy jackal]

ok so how many locations does erebus have?

im at location 6 and im scared of hitting hecate before this goes away

[sour star]

I think idk 10

[night shadow]

-500 😄

[mortal shuttle]

11 locations before the pre-boss shop

[drowsy jackal]

Oh this is so cool
|| https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/638031423340806185/1238601289320108133/IMG_1755.jpg?ex=663fe0d7&is=663e8f57&hm=84ce2911d8336a0cf855dd8da66d3d40fa45a94bb3e4727e0ce0435fe1871bce&||

i can't decide what to pick

[royal pumice]

which ||chaos boon did you wind up taking?||

[drowsy jackal]

not the 500 dmg, that's for sure

fixated mind

ok @royal pumice - help me out here

|| BOON boon boon or ||
|| REWARD reward reward ? ||

[royal pumice]

tricky, did you like the boons from the night before? I'm not sure if ||reward doubles the effect or wut||

[drowsy jackal]

reward will just give me another ||hermes||

which may be

[royal pumice]

ohhhhh

[drowsy jackal]

and last night i got so mad i dropped my run and let hecc kill me on purpose - that's how crap my build was
which is also

[royal pumice]

go with ||hermes|| lmaooo

[drowsy jackal]

aight bet

[royal pumice]

fingers crossed it's something nice

[drowsy jackal]

eh just give me 10% dodge, whatever

[royal pumice]

better than the night before maybe

[drowsy jackal]

well im at zone 3 so yeah

and i still have 88 ||onion health|| left

https://tenor.com/view/oignon-onion-look-at-that-cooking-show-chef-jean-pierre-gif-14815458

[brittle light]

the boss area is bigger and u have to use ur sprint

[royal pumice]

is that diff ||from armor?||

[drowsy jackal]

keepsake

[royal pumice]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

that reminds me ||Nemesis doesn't give you her keepsake if you give her nectar in the wild ||

[proper cloak]

Has anyone else died while picking your item??

The game glitched it guess and it ruined my run yesterday lol

[royal pumice]

spoiler tag that plz, also ||that's why you kill them while scoping out the area so they don't try to run you over mid-fight||

[proper cloak]

I’ll change it lol

[royal pumice]

They're always on aggro in my experience unlike the other enemies in that area

[proper cloak]

How many hours you have in it

[royal pumice]

not that many

or rather, I haven't gotten that far progress-wise

[drowsy jackal]

||I BEAT THE DOGGO!||

holy moly guacamole my hands are still shaking

oh this is so cool!

[royal pumice]

Spoiler tag plz

[stark pagoda]

Wrong channel, sorry!

[drowsy jackal]

JESUS H CHRIST those runs are long

[royal pumice]

I did my (fated list) ||Beat Hecate without any arcana cards challenge || glad to knock it out early before I got dependent

[drowsy jackal]

57 minuts (not counting all the breaks for dialogues and such) only to get to ||chronos||

[mortal shuttle]

ooh yeah I should do that soon too for the same reason

[drowsy jackal]

i could do like 3 EM4 runs in this time

[vagrant knoll]

You know I love how so many people have asked how to dodge Hecate's sheep attack, because like for all someone knows going in, it can't be dodged. But there's something about the way the attack looks and moves that makes it clear that you could dodge it with some effort

By the way does anyone know if Extreme Measures is in the game already?

[drowsy jackal]

oh god i hope not

i still want to have some social life left, thank you very much

[bold wigeon]

LMAO, loved this reaction

[drowsy jackal]

oh hey a new update

speaking of - is there a place where i can see the patchnotes and such?

i can't find it anywhere

[solemn token]

been wondering the same myself

[hollow wadi]

Been also looking for it as well

[lilac ether]

i think so far they're just doing hotfixes, fixing stuff that crash people's games

so they haven't posted patch notes for those

[solemn token]

yeah they are pretty minor updates

[drowsy jackal]

i still wish i could see The Fated List Of Minor Updates

[dull timber]

I actually did dodge it today, though I am not sure if it would be a spoiler to say how. So I'll put it in the spoiler tag.
||My familiar got hit by it, was just coincidence but it was funny nonetheless ||

[royal pumice]

that's normal! They don't always do it but it's part of their skill to ||absorb ranged attacks on your behalf||

[strange wing]

you can dash into the sheep hex

[royal pumice]

Encounter ||the diversity of possible Nemesis events is surprising, I've seen, her clearing a region and giving you the reward, her exchanging a boon for something, her offering to give you the reward in exchange for taking a hit (10 damage)|| I'm surprised

[strange wing]

since it needs a while to turn

do that enough times and you can dodge it

[royal pumice]

I think you have to do it 7 times

[drowsy jackal]

She bends the time space continuum itself

One time I was at charons, right ?
There was a Pom, a boon and some food

I picked a Pom and while I was sitting there thinking what should I upgrade ||NEMESIS JUST WENT AND BOUGH THE BOON!||

I thought the game is paused when you’re sitting in a menu
Well apparently not

[royal pumice]

Yeah nope ||she will buy shop items and steal paths, you have to butt in front of her so far I've had to speed to get to Arachne and Hermes before she entered the room||

[drowsy jackal]

She’s just too cool to be bound by a mere concept of time

[royal pumice]

||If only she would get down to Chronos and kill him for us||

[drowsy jackal]

[tall prism]

Has anybody run into issues regarding Darkmoon(?) Form Hex disabling the normal run?

[royal pumice]

in an f10 way?

[manic heath]

can you force mel not to use the really slow final attack of the axe combo or do you just have to wait longer to reset the combo?

[mortal shuttle]

||She'd be happy to and seems mad that you beat her down there||

[vale zealot]

yo they actually lowered the game price in poland a bit

i saw someone talking about that in feedback before, based

[royal pumice]

||I'm rooting for her devs let her stab Chronos plz||

[proper jewel]

mb misclick

[void spindle]

anyone got an idea on how to beat ||Chronos? Every time i reach him i just get dealt huge sums of damage before 2nd phase||

[ocean void]

dodging into || him || is very good phase 1

[midnight badger]

Do you have the maximum amount of Death defiance (4 with the tooth keepsake) when you reach him?

Having vent + hitch + solar ring is really good with him.

[void spindle]

You can get FOUR death defiances?!

[fierce citrus]

I'm pretty sure there is also a Demeter boon or something that makes any hit unable to do more than a certain amount of damage

[hazy umbra]

you can get 5 if you keep finding Hermes, 6 if Chaos decides to give you another one, 7 with the ||pet cat||

[midnight badger]

Check the above comment. Seems like there's more.

[cloud zephyr]

how do you get 4? i have 1 lol

[midnight badger]

Thanks, I didn't know.

[hazy umbra]

3 from Arcana + 1 from keepsake from Skelly

[void spindle]

I only got 2 😭

[midnight badger]

You need to upgrade your arcana.

Then there's a keepsake that gives you an extra.

[void spindle]

Which arcana cards? There are more than 25?

[cloud zephyr]

ah gotcha... yeah i have not done that all the way yet

[hazy umbra]

Arcana XII

[midnight badger]

There are boons that can give it. For instance, the Moon Hex that makes you invicible can give you a death defiance refresh.

[hazy umbra]

you can upgrade it twice

[void spindle]

Oh so you can upgrade arcana cards ig

Not a thing i unlocked yet i suppose xD

[midnight badger]

But yeah, you need to get better at dodging too ||cause seems like there are instakills that absolutely require dodging on the right time ||

[void spindle]

||yup, got to phase 2 then immediately got 996'd||

[midnight badger]

RIP

[void spindle]

How do you unlock arcana upgrades btw?

[cloud zephyr]

so is ||there no safe zone for that attack? i tthink i survived it the first time it happened and figured it was due to where i was standing.. assuming you guys are talking about chronos phase 2||

[void spindle]

||there seems to be a safe zone which is glowing, thats what i saw, i just realized too late couldnt get to it in time me thinks||

[midnight badger]

|| yes we are talking about phase 2. There are 2 attackas that are insta kill ||

[cloud zephyr]

||2? oh damn lol. got to him for the first time today so ill need to keep that in mind for the future||

[midnight badger]

|| yep, I won't say what, but there's another one and you need to dodge. ||

[midnight badger]

Congrats for that!

[cloud zephyr]

thank you! should be easier getting back there now that i know theres more than 1 defiance haha

[midnight badger]

Death to Chronos!

[real needle]

trying to activate the fates card, is there a card below it or do I need to activate the card diagonal to it?

[crystal pier]

diagonal!

[real needle]

darn ok ty

[astral wigeon]

So, the Umbral Flames can be aimed with the mouse, even if you're using controller controls simultaneously. That's great for Steam Input. Is there a community Steam Deck profile that turns the right analog stick into a mouse region to take advantage of this?

I just made this layout for the Dualsense 5 in Steam Input. I'm publishing it under Community Layouts as "Right Stick Aiming."

I'll make a similar one for the Steam Deck once I install the game and test it.

It works so far, but you have to stick to using the right stick for attacking only. If you try to go back to using the game's auto lock-on, it doesn't work because the cursor stay on the screen in it's last position. Pausing the game lets you go back to normal. Any Steam Input wizards know how to make the cursor dissapear when you're not moving the analog stick?

[elder bough]

anybody know what the recent patch did?

[green gorge]

Most likely bug and stability fixes

[royal pumice]

someone plz tell aphrodite to unblock me I need to give her a nectar and I haven't seen her in forever

[daring granite]

i have only seen aphrodite like... 5 times? out of 38 runs? might be a bug

[elder bough]

doubtful, that's not that bad

[daring granite]

sorry forgot to turn off the ping 😭

[elder bough]

it probably isnt statistically significant anyway is what i mean

[daring granite]

no ive been seeing everyone else, especially heph and hestia

[elder bough]

that's the way i read it

[sullen siren]

I see Aphrodite fairly often myself
So unless they're basing it off player behavior or an event somehow, sounds just like bad RNG to me

[elder bough]

^

[midnight badger]

Love your profile pic. It is chef's kiss 💋

[royal pumice]

I assumed it to be bad rng, I have general bad luck

[daring granite]

yes yes i LOVE the chaos redesign

[elder bough]

i was weirded out but he's cool

[midnight badger]

Loving is an understatement for me. I'm feeling all giddy about them.

[elder bough]

@vocal tree did you mean demeter? dio isnt in this game

#h2-feedback message

[vocal tree]

I meant if/when they add Dio. I remember hearing all the gods will be coming back?

[elder bough]

ah i dont recall hearing that, that's exciting!

[daring granite]

sadly, wouldve loved to see the new art for him

[vocal tree]

Considering it's full scale war, it would be weird to not see them all at some point imo.

[elder bough]

he was my favorite in 1

[daring granite]

i feel like i never got his boons to work in 1

[elder bough]

i mean in terms of his interactions and attitude

his cast and call WERE amazing though.

[royal pumice]

he's hunkering down with all the ambrosia

[vocal tree]

I think it could be unique to give his boons a small twist where the drunk enemies fight each other instead. Considering how tanky they are in this game.

[elder bough]

id like his status to be the new jolted

[eager wraith]

Do you guys think it's still a good idea to submit a bug report if you don't know the cause of a bug?

[versed quest]

Ngl I kinda appreciate the fact that the boons are less damage heavy for me imo since I get to experiment with the new tools wayy more than just spamming attacks and specials, but at the same time, the hp pools for some of the bosses are still too high imo

[eager wraith]

I'm getting really werid glitches tonight and I'm honestly a little tired so my brain's having a hard time thinking about it
I got a glitch where during battle I've lost the ability to use my omega cast entirely, and from what I can tell any cast altering boon (mainly the one that makes it aimable) has stopped working (it's as if I only have my base cast)
Would it even be helpful to know about this as a dev if I don't have a hunch as to why, and there's no attached footage?

[elder bough]

if you are on windows use win+alt+g for 30s of recent footage

if you recently alt tabbed in it resets

then just post in tech support. this time sounds like it's too late tho

[eager wraith]

yeah unfortunately

i think ive just been getting really unlucky because im tired and playing a little weird

thank you for letting me know about the tech support channel and clipping, i'll utilize that if anything similar happens

[elder bough]

@red ferry you should post multiple times so we can vote to support each piece of feedback

[red ferry]

oh mb

I figured a wall of text would be a bit easier on the devs, but I'll post seperate messages for each suggestion

[elder bough]

yeah they do ask you to post things separately if you read the guidelines

[red ferry]

oops lol

[elder bough]

it's so tedious i know 😭

[red ferry]

I find it a bit weird a lot of stuff from the 1st game wasn't implemented into this one
like breaking enemy projectiles your with strikes or even some of the menus

[sullen siren]

A lot of it might still be in progress

[elder bough]

i was weirded out to discover the projectiles didnt break on my stronger attacks

[red ferry]

also the torches feel very underwhealming compared to every other weapon

[elder bough]

yea

[sullen siren]

There's so many times that I get whacked by a chain of weak projectiles, and if I didn't dodge the first one I can't break the rest

[twilit crane]

!!!

is there a way to see boons of your previous run

[elder bough]

later

[red ferry]

even worse if you have that 1 curse from chaos which stuns you for a sec after you get hit
got 1 shot by the root stalker cuz of that lmao

[twilit crane]

I had the one where u get health back when u kill with ur special and the on hit generate magic

[elder bough]

i keep getting hit mid dash even though i dont even have a real dash attack (daggers). it "technically" is a dash attack as it doesnt start your attack sequence but it sure as hell doesnt look like it, the hit is all the way after the dash. so it looks stupid when i get hit mid dash.

[red ferry]

btw lads did you know|| echo's boon can duplicate a hammer?|| I find this unholy broken

[twilit crane]

crap i was in wrong chat

my bad anyone who saw

[astral wigeon]

You can't give a gift to ||Chronos||.

[elder bough]

i really really doubt anybody doesnt know you fight ||chronos||. it's basically confirmed in the trailer

[royal pumice]

it's still requested that post erebus be spoilered

[elder bough]

do you really count what was in the trailer

[astral wigeon]

Not everyone knows you can ||find him outside of combat||, though

[royal pumice]

||Maybe it'll be a 1.0-post-game thing like Hades in the first game||

[astral wigeon]

It's such a shame. I was hoping for some hilarious reaction.

[twilit crane]

ik ik it was my mistake

[twilit crane]

hahahah i shouldnt have clicked that its fine i take responsibility for clicking

im loving this game so much

[turbid comet]

I can consistently get to the boss of area 3, as expected I'm hooked. Really enjoying this so far.

[wary idol]

Damn I was so close to beating underworld boss 3 on my first try

[stiff hawk]

Does anyone know if boon rarity is affected by relationship status? That would be kinda cool 🥲

[elder bough]

would be kinda crazy

[green gorge]

Hi @glass shuttle, your feedback regarding adding a 👎 emote too feedback posts was deleted because it did not follow the channel guidelines.

@cyan acorn #h2-feedback message
1,3,2,2,2 is fairly indicative of an even spread, i dont think anything is wrong with grave thirst

1,3,2,1,3 is also perfectly reasonable given each one is evenly likely

10 is also such a small sample size 😅

[cyan acorn]

thats fair, 10 runs is a small sample size. However more often than not, I definitely see the grave thirst on the torches more than anything else. I cant say anything else because im in a non spoiler channel so yeah

[elder bough]

the thing is you're saying they are not working right when they are behaving exactly as intended

what you've given is more or less perfectly expected given an even spread

[cyan acorn]

and part of the problem is i never paid attention to that because my first priority when playing the game is playing it and not keeping track of that kinda stuff. I know i gave an example that just makes me look like a idiot or whatever. Ill pay more attention i guess and see if im wrong. i probably am

[elder bough]

fuuuck i forgot i had chaos boon and stole 24 hp from myself

[cyan acorn]

rip

[elder bough]

@north isle have you tried it using a ||maxed keepsake already||?

just to make sure :)

[north isle]

@elder bough Yeah, I had a ||maxed out Luckier Tooth on||

[elder bough]

i see. yeah that's no good

[north isle]

And the words "(if possible)" are in the description

It feels like a placeholder boon, tbh. I don't see it getting all the way to release.

[elder bough]

@merry berry are you sure you replied to the right thing

very confused at what you're referring to

[green gorge]

also please no discussion in the feedback channel, feedback discussion belongs either in #h2-discussion or here

[elder bough]

@paper skiff you unlock several qol things in hades 2 just like hades 1, if something is missing just ask here and somebody will confirm whether you're just not there yet

@slim island you should specify boons

[mental leaf]

Is there a way to see patch notes during EA or not presently?

I bought Hades II, the price dropped soon after, Steam gave me the difference back in Steam wallet funds.
...
Was that Supergiant slashing the price or Valve adjusting for currency exchange?

[dull lily]

So did Melinoe grow up really fast or Chronos been at war with olympus for 20 years now?

The gods act as if it has been a recent thing

[green gorge]

probably the later, there's no discount atm from where I'm from

[worldly pulsar]

I bought it for 30 dollars the moment it came out and its still 30 so prob the latter?

[normal mason]
