one finger on right stick, one on x, one on a, etc
trueee
Being cringe is being free anyways
what scenario is this
Insert joycon drift joke
Was gonna say
hestia
You play hestia?
faze zagrus
also on controller you cant separate dash direction from dash strike direction
and autoaim means arced attacks cant be aimed as precisely
like beo dstrike and gilga
i cant aim beo please
Like i get it, you dont like controller 
ive had several scenarios where controller would have wasted time over kbm because of this
And i cant play hades on kbm to save my life
yeah at this point im just trying to make up whatever random reasons i can think of
But thats just because i started on switch, il prob be chill on kbm if i had it on pc
i know its just personal preference lol, the scenarios where kbm actually makes a difference are extremely niche
i need precise kbm to aim gigantor swing
hms
Only change i would like for controller is achilles auto aim lol
And triple bomb for luci
i mean yeah sometimes there are just 2 numbskulls far enough apart that you can only hit them both by aiming in between them
also i learned the other day that you have to manually aim beo on controller
how tf does that work
Just aim?
ig
Acquire skill.
I cant hear you
zhield >
trippy shot + bad news + mirage = early access gameplay
Was gonna say use infernal soul to add the cast stuck but that replaces bad news
I really hate that bug
Whatever the other beo bugs are :|
what cast stuck
I dont think so?
No
huh, wacky
replacing calisthenics program with hard labor
because the former was just too painful
Trippy user superiority
cp unironically one of the worst pacts lol
yeah cp is really bad
makes every fight harder
you'd think a small health increase wouldn't be too bad
but oh god does it make the bosses a lot more difficult
15% isn't small lol
i mean with most enemies it seems like a minor difference when you've got a good build and are clearing through them quickly anyway
but bosses
whew
better to take literally anything other than dc and hs for 1 heat lmao
Idk cp2 kinda free heat
okay buddy
ah yes lemme just slap calisthenics 2 onto dad
I don’t see a reason to take off cp2 yet cuz I’m not at the point where I need to run em4
what's your pact lmao
Changes depending on how I’m feeling tbh
but also enemies having 30% more hp takes longer to kill and td3 eventually catches up
usually includes atleast em2 cp2 fo2 td3 mm bp2
im still working through beo 40 boonless and it is not going great lmao
ngl em3 is easier than cp2 lmao
at least that way you're not buffing dad
You can do it
More hp dad fight means I get to win harder
longer fights are pain tho
oh you pure innocent summer child
shackle beo takes forever to kill em3 and dad
If the run dies it wasn’t worthy
lowkey considering dd and lc2 lmao
i just need more hp vs dad but also patty sd healing is good so idk how that's gonna work
I should probably learn how to play better though
do acorn lc 4
so I can run lc4 sd without wanting to die
OW OW OW WHY DOES HARD LABOR HURT SO MUCH
sd is hardly different than dd when it comes to hp/room
i think i need the damage more than 5 hits invulnerability tbh
without the damage the fight is gonna take twice as long basically
at least, considering i have to wait to pick up the casts
r u cp?
boonles right
yeah
slide some ri in there i say
i need room rerolls
Too much cf
for
to not pick up a god
purge pool
whats this, 45?
boonless 40
ri might not be a bad option actually
u can purge boons for it to count as boonless fwiw
unless u want a "pure" boonless
the fights last too long, hl5 is too risky
Buy hearts
actually wait is it better to do room rolls or boon rolls
Room rerolls
i've already done hl5 no cf, i ended with 1k gold
died with 1k gold rather
i can work with cf2, i can only buy 2 hearts per biome anyways
Don't die then
ive been doing room
do ri in lieu of hl to unlock dad pool noodle form
do hoarding slash
fair enough
this is beo
no
lots

0/10 bad hades player
i've gotten to dad many times so it's not that bad
it's literally just me being dumb
i keep getting hit with boiling and getting greedy with blocking instead of dodging
because i'm not rerolling boons and i don't want to get locked into an atk/cast
considering i need 2 of them ap2 will kill the run
epic aphro strike, chaos boon that gives me +72% attack damage, and rending claws on gilgamesh
this ought to be interesting
i thought u were room reroller
Get that sweet 3.5k meg summon
sometimes you're forced into taking a boon miniboss
You can be forced into mini boss
and that will always be rerolled into a god
purge o clock
it's still a risk tho
and in my 5 or so runs i've never seen a purging pool other than at the end of biomes
maybe i missed 1 or 2 but still, they're not common
Luck issue

i mean styx miniboss would suck but otherwise u could purge every miniboss
unless ofc u want the real boonless
not just the clear msg
Styx mini boss can be roll into other gold rewaeds at least
i just want to end without boons for now
if i want true boonless i'd do lower heat
i forgot why i'm doing this
Remember you can take not purgable boons for the msg at least
i also have sweet surrender
the demeter healing one and uh one or two of dio's right
Chaos/that one Pos boon too
oh yeah i've been taking chaos
this is real unga bunga hours
Even better
does ss apply to summons
Yeah
funny
Is an "enemies take more dmg"
yeah i think rules that the community has defined for boonless is that you cant benefit from an olympian or chaos boon at any point during the run
but for the in game text its just no purgables at the end lol
big disparity
yeah for sure
because for the in game text you could just take boons like normal and save 6 rerolls for styx well
based
Taking more damage is kind of taking more damage idk what to tell you man
i lost a dd during a tartarus god trial and immediately reset
the salt flows through me
this is why we dont take trials
If its tart just buy another dd later smh
heck yeah buddy
Just be better at trials and don’t get hit
Just get easier gods at trials
athena trials are easiest imo
i actually find pos trials kind of hard
because of that damn wave
u just dash thru the wave
My favourite trial is artemis because idk what she does but I don’t think I ever get hit by her things
that wave comes around once every few years and you can barely call it homing
shes like a faster weaker zeus
Athena in ely can be such a time waste but cant pass on DD chance
i find myself dashing into it more often than not, same with aphro trial
ull get it
i think they home in onto you
Pos trial is mainly annoying in ely for me
for aphro trial just dash away from it
Small screen = blends into background
that heart is really slow
sure but it also relentlessly tracks you and lasts forever
for poseidon you want to dash vaguely perpendicular to the direction of motion
aphro likes to troll u by spawning her heart in ur heart
it doesnt last forever, but again its really slow so its kinda whatever
just move away from it and it wont hit you
i stg half her hits on me were the heart materializing before my very eyes
It disappears after a while
like a few seconds
dem on that one tarturus room thats shaped like a C is a scam
oh god i'm in elysium
just walked into a room
armored flame wheels with speedy upgrade
i'm using fists
specifically gilgamesh
Dash through walls time
i actually just felt my soul whither and die
Or gaps
what dash do u have
Nadty dash gilga 🧠
i take cp2 at 50
yeah well you suck
gottem
i died to super daddy 🙁
and what build do you want me to do on goddamn talos
my strat is to luck into a strong enough build to shred super dad
how much harder is 50 heat compared to 40
ri just makes it seem like it's more rng dependant
and ap
Very
40 -> 50 is harder than 0 -> 40
yeah thought so
the standard progression is 32 -> 40 -> 45 -> 50
You can still avoid nasty pacts at 40
and then i think 53 after that
So ive unlocked the Aspect of Lucifer
45+ is where the game goes crazu
#h1-victory-boasting message
what do you think i should add to this pact for 45 heat eris
drunken strike kinda nasty btw
Sticky Bomb Launcher in Hades Lets GOOOOO
FO2 JS3
or FO2 JS2 HS
Also might want to consider lightning strike for aoe because of js3
i was just about to ask that
innit drunken the meta for eris ri ap
i think i might still stick to drunken strike because it doesnt rely on a second boon like jolted plus aoe wasnt a problem at all for my 40 heat run
If you go to 50 i think youre gonna want to install the speedrun modpack
i tend to struggle more on bosses and drunken strike felt much stronger for that
i mean u can get away w/o jolted for eris
They're only on ap1 and no ri
im console 
rip
i know not what i was askin tho
youre gonna suffer like mattyboi 🤭
if ive bought the game on xbox do you think ill have a pc copy as well
idk
it works for some games i bave like hollow knigh and celeste
ye maybe
also ive never done modding before so we'll see hpw that goes
i barely use my laptop because all of the boys are on console and it sounds like itll blow up whenever i launch something even remotely cpu intensive
hades modding is not too hard
hades is p demanding i cant play it on my laptop
maybe ur laptop go hard tho
what are your specs like
50 hestia isnt too bad unmodded
mid laptop
not hammer reliant, only really needs an attack boon
i5 11 and 16gb ddr4 int graphics
hestia looks hard ive just been abusing global damage buff eris
eris really wants clockets
somehow ive gotten delta in all of my recent runs
v nice
delta feels better than clockets at high heat
havenr had clockets in weeks
What's wrong with unmodded 50 heat
rng maybe?
eh
i love delta big time delta fan
id rather have clockets than delta but delta is not smth to complain abt
i should rlly beat my unmodded pb yeeks
naw
brb
f
ill do 52
Im sorry for your loss
Do 55
why are there so many more unmodded 50 heat runs than 40 on the leaderboards
40 heat sucks
people dont submit 40s
aight
would require em4 or ri3
understandable
40 heat is just 32 heat in a hat
Is there a problem
ri3 🗿
Laugh at this user
just gonna do shackle start and pray i find a decent attack before lerno
Hesty?
lerno
el lernio
Or is this Gilgamesh
might take pearpoint into lerno fight tbh
Pearpoint
Talos
not again
Hades hates Sticky Spamming 
talos?
Talos gud
talos go hard
Easily top 1 aspects for 50 heat
talos > not talos
mr worbsetl5 himself has spoken
Go for the 52 heat unmodded seeded pc Scotland (?) Wr
Seeded run time
i was watching hestia gameplay earlier and couldnt even really tell what was going on seems like so many inputs
Hestia is a rythm game
is life but rhythm
i have the heat wr in my local area 👍
How do you know angel doesn't live near you
is it just use only first shot in your clip and cram specials and casts on reloads
i am not sure wr and local area are compaitable but congrats
my local area is my exact address
Top players live in your walls so you cant claim this
anegl is in your skin
wow i'm honored honestly
i am the best hades player in my household
Im the best hades player in my school
I’m the bestest hades player on my planet
I am the best hades player
idk who else plays hades at my school
im the best hades player on senior sundays
i am a hades player
That implies you play hades which is cringe
I hades player
hades
No I don't 😠
I’m so good at it I don’t have to play to be the bestest player
oh yeah? then why do you have the kbm role? dont you know you can use keyboard and mouse to play hades? checkmate
game set match
im close to cracking this case
im in the mainframe
😡
how strange
This isn’t supposed to happen
weird glitch guys my health went below 0
eats his spinach
the cp1 experience
18 small rats at rat ranch
What's a hades
the endless mini rat rooms in styx are awful
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Guys I promise I don't play hades
Malphon sucks at EM4. 
bno
Retrash did it so it must be good
I did it
It’s because their pact of punishment has hl-10
h
what's overtime
oh you mean undertime?
Yes
52
There’s another way
the secret...
dash dash iframes lets go
but you can't stave off the timer without being at 1hp w/ athena dash, right?
You can iframe the 5 hp ticks lol
Only at 1 hp I think
Or whatever hp will kill you at that point so 1-5
Are any of you guys so used to having divine dash on your builds that you throw yourself at projectiles only to eat a load of damage because you don't have it on that run
No
I've stopped forcing ddash lmao
But… but… funny copy pasta
yes
Idk man as
someone with
Around 10 40 heat runs
under my belt
i think that
you messed it up
because clearly
no, i mean this isnt how it goes
you messed it up
yeah
because clearly
I will literally always
take divine dash
Over pretty much everything else
unless the build
really requires a specific dash
to create a broken interaction
Divine dash is good with every build
ok i dont feel like doing this anymore
lmao
I may or may not just have the whole thing copy pasted and am just taking the next few words every time I don't know this by memory
bruh
Enough.
Drop the topic of Aphrodite and move on.
passion dash >>>> ddash
Shackle dash better
100% more iframes
+100% more vroom
Double the damage double the better
S P E E D
Enough.
Drop the topic of Aphrodite and move on.
Enough.
Drop the topic of Aphrodite and move on.

haste delivery gaming
Nemesis is not the best sword
best sword is no sword
nemesis -> arthur -> zag -> posideon
You swapped around zag and nem by accident
i tried to be realistic for once
tfw you go into styx with no chill boons whatsoever and end up constantly chilling dad up to 10 stacks
does hades have steam workshop
Nope
Hades Modding discord is pinned in #self-promotion if you're interested in modding the game.
im interested in using mods not making them
You can browse the mods on nexusmods.com/hades if all you're looking to do is use existing ones
Right. m saying over in the Modding discord, they can help point you to mods and help with installation etc. Can also request a mod if it doesn't exist yet.
is there steam workshop for mods or is it manual?
its manual
Hello guys - can someone tell me, how long does it take o unlock hidden aspects? I am 30h in, talked with achilles all the time and I only have spear aspect unlocked after all this time 
You need to talk to various other NPCs to get the others
I know that - the point is I am talking to them all the time and it is not unlocking at all
shouldn't take too long
I def had all six by 30h in if not earlier
am i allowed to ask questions about the speedrun mod pack
i just want to know where i can find what each mod does
you bet
I haven't extensively tried every aspect, so a lot of my impressions are from other's runs/what I've heard, but as far as all-around performance goes
Does this look more or less accurate 🤔
Actually I should probably move hestia since that goes zoom too
Zeus too low.
Worse than zag sword moment
Does zeus have a bunch of high tier speedrun performances-
so that ensures your first god boon pickup offers all four cores rather than just three
I mostly just see eris/beo with a bunch of rama/hera and some sprinklings of the other high tiers
okay then what about doorvisualindicators (i know what it does but what are the visuals that it will add)
Merciful end arthur wr when
what does the emotemod do
they have only a lua file
i could try decrypting them actually if it's well commented
yeah try looking at them
Is that tier list only for speedruns? Zeus is incredibly strong at high heat. It's the only aspect that's cleared 64 Heat yet.
another mod was basic enough that I knowing nothing about lua could easily modify it to extend its functionality
so you could do the same
No, just a sort-of-overall impressions type list. I know zeus is crazy for heat but haven't really seen it too much in speedruns
it's not the best speedrunning aspect yeah
And hera's goated for speedruns but falls off hard the second it doesn't oneshot
So I figured those are overall less of a "whole package" than something like beo/eris/rama/hestia
I'd say that's fair
What's the last heat for 64 though-
hell mode's personal liability
unfortunately not that well documented
Ah right
Just doesn't seem right to have the aspect that has all the top 4 placements in unmodded high heat not at the top of the tier list.
it's clearly more categorical with the second to top being aspects suited for either heat or speedrunning
I'm taking a look myself, doorvisualindicators is for the miniboss display
aka miniboss chamber entrance will show which miniboss it is
this is disabled by default and not legal for leaderboard I believe
as for emotemod I have no clue
Is Excaliber bad? I have a lot of fun with it
It's very fun if you're in the mood for it
But once enemies hit harder/faster and zoom around it just kind of flops over
Gotcha.
it's good for casual play, for speedrunning and very high heat it falls off a cliff
Simple solution
Buff arthur to do triple the damage 🧠
Make it hit breakpoints in one swing
Ok so FO2 Styx is a lot harder.
after a while of digging around I got nothing
ultimately it just looks like something that allows zag to emote?
i mean that's what i would imagine
it's just sad how cryptic this mod pack is because it seems interesting
ah looks like it's still disabled in 1.2.0
was disabled sometime after 1.0
that's why there's no mention of it, basically no one's ever used it in a functional state I guess
weird
Ah that's why I was having trouble
You're best off asking in the Hades Modding discord if you need help with any mods. There's a link to it pinned in #self-promotion.
Depends on a lot of things
But early game you can use basically whatever, you just have to learn the game
I made this earlier as a sort of all-around tier list, but even the lowest things on here can clear the game if you know how things work
The thing is that on top of every weapon and aspect being good at certain things, there's also a learning curve for each
Eris is super easy to learn even if it has a high skill ceiling, but Hestia is a way of life that requires you to have a 700 IQ
Shields are generally ez but beowulf takes some learning and so does zeus
Etc
I will never spin a spear in my life ever again.
Hestia easy.
Beowulf is the easiest shield to play if you just want quick results.
Is aspect of Guan Yu any good?
not really. It has a good special
Get Demeter's or Dionysus' attack boons and a charge time reforge and it shreds everybody
otherwise, it's very risk/reward

i should point though that i am very biased in Guan Yu's favour because it's my 3rd favourite aspect in the entire game
so take whatever i say about it with a grain of salt
Hestia and eris are easy to learn and both have a high skill ceiling, just that hestia is higher because you're doing like 17 inputs at once compared to eris at the top level
Lies and slander, it is good
Time to take on 50 heat with a cursed slash build
use Zag sword for faster hp regen
Its good high with cskewer
Very solid damage
Kill them before they kill you type beat
don't care + ratio + didn't ask + ok and + ratio again + cskewer is completely rng on unmodded and is make or break for a run making it pointless to rely on and inconsistent to the max at high heat + final ratio + L
Sounds like you have a skill issue tbh
ratio
Skillet shoe
Skill is optional, no?
Maybe
literally
*If only real life worked the same way...*for people with bad RNG at the start of life anyhow.
Smh just reset if you start with bad rng
🧠🧠🧠🧠🧠
Speedrunners at birth be like: doctor, could I borrow a bottle of ammonia? Don't worry, I'm just going to reset my build.
its ok, but it becomes really good with cskewer. the spin isnt worth using a lot of the time because you tend to just get hit when charging it. if you dont see cskewer, quick spin makes the spin good as you can get spins off in combat way easier
im awful with guan yu
but yea with charged skewer its ok
i just ignore the other aspects of it and just live with low health
The spin is perfectly fine if you're not doing FO2.
And you don't need to use FO2 until well past 32 Heat.
The vast majority of players never go past 32.
the spin just makes me get hit more but occasionally i use it for spawning enemies or maybe lernie
Tempest Strike, Frost Strike, and Divine Strike are all very easy spin builds.
SUPER SOAKER GY!!!
Tempest Strike will never let anything get close to you because the knockback is so good. Frost Strike stacks Chill very fast to make enemies even slower than they already are at FO0. Divine Strike just lets you hide inside the spin that deflects virtually anything that's deflectable while providing heals.
Tempest strike is OP because the extremely low % will make you have to play the game for longer, and since the game is good, it’s Op
The damage gets pretty good with wall slams and t2 boons.
I wonder if there's plans to get Hades back on Gamepass
wait what does high level hestia look like?
Reload cancels much dash much special
what in gods name is a reload cancel
Some sort of nerd jargon perhaps?
my reaction to that information:
actions that end reload animation early but still counts as full reload
Planes are pretty neat tech
zag desync so you can wobble hades
pretty technically demanding but doable
the wobble is unfortunately banned for speedruns
To be clear, the cancel only allows you to move, you still need to wait for the reload gauge to go up before you can attack again. Any action can cancel the reload animation. You can also reload during any other action to skip the animation. E.g., you don't need to press reload and then dash. You can also just press reload during the dash to skip the animation. Or you can press both at the same time.
To keep up an optimal DPS rotation, you'd want to use your Special whenever possible between attacks and use attacks whenever your Special is on cooldown. Since you can use Special + Reload at the same time, that lets you use your Special every other reload. (You don't need to keep count, though, you can just press Special + Reload every time you reload and the Special will come out every other time.)
That aside, the two most common Hestia mistakes I see are:
(1) Pressing Attack too early after a reload. The game doesn't allow you to buffer the attack. Usually for inputs like that in games, the game will allow you to input your next action (Attack in this case) a little early and keep the input buffered so that it automatically comes out at the right time. That's not the case for Attacks after Reload. If you press even one frame early, your Attack won't come out and you'll just hear that empty click sound. Typically you already pressed Reload again to reload after your next Attack, but that Attack didn't come out. So you just end up reloading twice without getting an Attack. And since your rhythm is off now, it's very common to see players reload multiple times without getting a shot off because they input their Attacks too early. That hurts your DPS a lot. So... it's more prudent to Attack just a tiny bit later to prevent that from happening.
(2) Waiting way too long after an Attack to press Reload. Often people wait until the bullet hits the target. You can actually press reload immediately after pressing Attack, which gives you a much faster DPS rotation.
You press buttons on cooldown yeah reload cancel
Also, if you're already running when you press Reload, you can keep moving just fine. If you stand still when you press Reload, you're stuck in that animation until it ends or you cancel it.
aphro cast, chaos boon for +72% cast damage, and ravenous will on hera
i love it when runs start so good
and oh god i love the duo dialogues so much
artemis and aphrodite's is so good
yeah arty just straight up hits on you
like bruh
time to save money ig
i was more referring to the ones where aphro drags artemis along and artemis is just like "oh god"
oh yeah probably the one when you pick up an aphro boon I'm guessing
forgot how it went, the only duo I really remember is the arty boon heart rend one where arty hits on you
when i first got their duo boon, it was from an artemis boon, and it's just artemis trying to get away from aphrodite and failing
and the one i just got was from an aphro boon, and she's just like "i've brought you keen-eyed artemis, who is too focused on the hunt to learn the proper social graces to approach you directly!"
and artemis is just like "oh come on just leave me be"
lol she's a great character
I am in pain
calisthenics em4 dad dead
only a single dd used
aphrodite cast hera too stronk
AND NOW NYX AND ARES ARE TALKING TO EACH OTHER
DEAR GOD I LOVE THE WRITING IN THIS GAME
I'm trying to get a speedrun going 😔
yeah but you cant sub6 anymore
whats your goal
you dont really need charged shot for that
what's fastest non cshot beo
Not sub 6
yeah low 6 probably
no
Or is it like yarn where it does literally nothing
Damn
So I should just ambrosia/pom
eury doesnt affect duos
it makes every boon you have heroic
I think ambrosia/yarn is a bit misleading, they don't just bump all boons up a rarity
they act more like chaos favor I believe
but also guarantee rare at minimum
finally pulled off a revenge build by pure chance
this is pretty fun actually
since i'm always dashing in with achilles, it's very easy to catch up to enemies and keep revenging them
Wells of charon or healing springs?
I just realised zag does same damage as beo on normal strikes lmao
Yeah, Zag Shield is great.
Alright, it's time for the privilege I get only once every 3 heat levels
Time for Arthur
Only once every 3 Heat levels? What kind of challenge are you doing?
I clear each heat level with every weapon before I move on to the next level, and I switch aspects between each run to keep myself flexible
So logically, I would only get a certain aspect once every 3 heat levels or so
Indeed
Even with aspects that are considered 'bad,' I still have fun with them
And there's no point in having a lot of variety in a game if you don't play around with that variety
Well, strong and fun aren't the same thing anyway.
Too strong can be incredibly boring even.
That's precisely the reason why I don't miss Beowulf all that much
If I used it constantly, I would get very bored very quick
But using it only once in a while lets me keep having fun with it
Idk I use spreadfire zag rail a lot I just find it really fun never really mess with the other rails aside from luci or hestia every once in a while
I've had plenty of fun Gilgamesh runs. I still think that yet another "slow but big attacks" hidden aspect was a bit uninspired, that yet another "hidden aspect of a guy" was a bit dropping the ball on that, that its gimmicks are a bit all over the place with no great synergy, and that it's easily one of the very weakest aspects with a penalty that isn't justified... but I've had fun runs with it.
Same, yeah
Gilgamesh has a lot of weaknesses and I'd never argue that it's a great aspect
But it's definitely enjoyable to just go hog wild and claw things to death with your bare hands
Gilgamesh bestest fists aspect after talos
At release, it wasn't fun for me because there were too many drawbacks. Like for example, the Dash-Strike buffer window was too short to get the Dash-Attack > Dash-Upper combo in a single dash like you could do with the other Malphon aspects.
Well, that was definitely my #1 complaint, but thankfully they listened and patched that.
No
🔫
@brisk trail perhaps lets not
Malphon is great.
Can't even pull in enemies with Exagryph smh.
The slower you kill them, the longer you can watch them suffer.
Alecto would approve.
but its higher
It's not a worse time if you're having a good time. 
Well, it's a worse time for your enemies if they suffer for longer.
no
Spreadfire literally better heavy knuckle
but you forgot about long knuckle
Fists are a ranged weapon and zag rail is a melee weapon
45 heat pummelled me
dont know if it was just the awful rng
shouldve just gotten the boons
I got the dusa plush
for some reason, I can't share the pic of it

Nice game huh
Yeeyeyey

Ok so my brain dis a neuron activation and realises that if I get a dio boon in tartarus and its that one where fountains are bonus attack, I can get like 20% attack bonus by the time I reach styx
Or more!
And it's full recovery so that's a plus
Yeah like I got epic and got 25% bonus
The neurons were firing hard
You can get bonus fountains if you're lucky
Yeah I got one fountain the room b4 the dio boon
if you have the chance, try Guan Yu + Dionysus/Demeter
Chill and Hangover go so frigging well together
pair the two with the reforge that makes your special charge faster and you basically win against every regular enemy in the game
Do you mean
Reforge = hammer
Special = spin
I don’t think dionysus or demeter would be my top picks on guan-yu
THERE we go
dad beaten with arthur
question, what are peoples' stances on privileged status vs family favorite
they seem reasonably interchangeable depending on your build/luck
Family favorites like 99% of the time
PS doesn't really occur naturally in many good builds
Obv you can force it with certain gods and have it proc but there's gonna be other builds that still deal more damage
I feel like it's not too hard to get privileged status via things like aphrodite or demeter
But yeah, I had a similar thought
Considering swapping over to family favorite
Also FF gives you a bonus as soon as you get your first boon
What's the bonus damage per god at max rank
I mean you can definitely get it to proc but if you don't get it going then you're losing out on a lot of dps
Or it's extremely awkward
Which would require you to have 5 gods' boons, correct?
Yes
Ah, gotcha
just get every god
Could theoretically get like 8 or 9 gods to be funny tho lmao
I guess that even if you don't have a full 5 gods, a 20% universal damage bonus is nothing to scoff at
PS is only good in builds that don't make it awkward to use like Chiron and Rama
Oh yeah that too
Can't really think of many others except fists with Dio atk Aphrodite special
And I guess Aphrodite dash too
Depends on intended build tbh
I wonder if anyone has attempted a power shot Rama build. The base damage is pretty chonky if slow.
thats literally how you are supposed to build rama
All the non-existent Flurry shot rama users are in shambles
I've never once used this bow without a special centric build, the Zeus/Ares Deluxe as I call it.
rama is pretty fun once you get some practice in
Vengeful mood is not an aspect specific build lmao
Yeah, but lots of arrows go
oh wait you said special centric
I got confused because you said zeus/ares
Assume you meant the duo and were calling it a special build
Special as in the adjective
Privileged Status is pretty good when you start with Weak, Chill, or Hangover.
Otherwise definitely take Family Favorite.
Proking ME with holy shield and curse of vengeance 🧠🧠🧠🧠
My condolences. 
As ssg intended ME to be used
What if they didn't intend for it to be used at all. 
No, that's for Curse of Longing.
🗿
Have you done Tempest Strike Guan Yu?
Blizzard Shot Talos?
Pulling enemies back into your Blizzard Shots is fun.
Zeus Shield + Cold Embrace + Aphrodite's Aid + Unhealthy Fixation?
- Fidi of course.
I’m going to try the talos build later
That's more or less the January challenge btw.

hi any idea if hades would have a sale in this event
altho iirc hades isn't entirely melee
All aspects are melee if you unga bunga enough
highkey bow is the only non melee weapon
was the previous hades sale around june/july
Triple shot gaming
nah i just walk up to every enemy and shotgun them with the special
Every weapon is a melee weapon
sword, spear, shield, shotgun, fists, shotgun
Eris rail doesn't even need to shotgun to be a melee weapon
https://steamdb.info/app/1145360/
Scroll down for a price chart
Last sale was for $15 July 28 - August 1
what game is this it looks fun
So i just finished my first escape yesterday and was introduced to Heat. I did a 51 Heat run for my first heat run, is that normal? I almost made it to the 1st boss, didn't seem as bad as it seemed except for that time limit
uh probably not normal
what did you use to get to 51 heat?
as in, aspect & what did you put on your pact
that is not normal lmfao
generally, if you're doing 50 (or 51 heat for this matter) you probably have at least 100 clears under your belt
there's a heat guide somewhere from Hat that does a pretty good job at introducing heat up until 32, which is a rough benchmark for "high heat"
it'd be real funny if i beat 50 rama before you because modded gaming
kills you
dw 40 was pain enough i dont want to even think about 50 rama
you're telling me...
i'm telling you i wont do rama 50 lmao
ik but i couldn't tell where that expression was going lol
i feel like rama takes too much time to learn to actually be good with it
generally, death
i've done 63 heat which was fun
That is what killed me
But i had 3 health on my last defiance when it did run out
I don't know much about the game lile loadouts and such but i just hack my way through generally
I know there are sections here that tell me that but i just like plowing through
Should probably learn how to play before throwing yourself into the deepest end
For the first 20 heat on each weapon you can really just go up 1 heat at a time
generally
So do a 1 heat run, then a 2 heat run, etc?
yeah
Yeah
Per weapon, cool
that makes the most of your bounties
I used the sword until i unlocked the spear then ive only used the spear
And game experience to go higher
Lmao based
if you clear 3 heat but haven't gotten the bounties for 1 heat, you get the rewards for 1 heat. if you do 3 heat again, you get the bounties for 2 heat and so on
I really havent delved into much of the games systems
Ive been trying to level keepsakes i dont have them all
And powering up the mirror
Thats really all ive cared about
That’s good 👍
Also good
I like the invincibility one
acorn?
I cant remember
Speerpoint
Special only is pretty free 50 if you're bad at rama
Meh
make sure you’re buying the work orders that affect the runs
Well where im at
The time limit is nothing intrinsically
Its how the other pacts interact with it that makes it awful
Like calisthenics program and jury summons
CP2 
I always underestimate how garbage roiling is until i take it and then time out in tart
considering they jumped from 0 to 51, TD being the issue isn't a bad start lmfao
Yea i picked every option until it didnt let me anymore
Right when the pact was unlocked
But yea i know thats unreasonable i didnt last long i was just curious
It was smart giving you the difficulty raising stuff one at a time in their other games
i mean depending on the aspect it might not be that bad lol
Just pause and give up as soon as the run starts
give up any%
I had 17:30 idk myself how i did it but yeah.
Was extremely lucky with the Satyr sack
i've tried 40 heat shackle/boonless beo 6 times, and at this rate it's gonna take me longer than 50 heat beo 
is hades not free on game pass anymore?
