#

i died to them on my first try, no I can no-hit them. Tbh most problems I've had in this game are a skill issue fr

latent moon
#

the only chaos i have is dstrike damage lmao

hard viper
#

sneak?

strong ridge
#

teleplanter miniboss

#

im consistent at using tidal to save the sneak

latent moon
#

curse of vengeance acquired, just need to get the duo then i got the build

hard viper
strong ridge
#

play game

latent moon
#

i think that doesn't show until you get a clear or something

#

maybe idk

#

but def doesnt show up for a bit

strong ridge
#

i wana say heat related but i am probably wrong

hard viper
#

I've cleared 3 times now

twilit lodge
#

Lmao

#

If you charm Theseus as he’s doing his call

#

It targets him

strong ridge
#

i agree

#

idr when sneak

twilit lodge
#

Sneak doesn’t show up til you’ve cleared I think

#

Or else it’s just v rare

twilit lodge
#

Fitting since this run is cursed

hard viper
#

looks like all the bosses I've not yet encountered are sneak, megagorgon, and satyr cultist based in the wiki

high island
#

The Wretched Sneak is no rarer than any other miniboss in Tartarus.

hard viper
twilit lodge
#

No megagorgon codex entry but you do have the miniboss she appears with

#

Someone died to the power couple

#

Understandable, can be a rough fight

hard viper
#

oh wait megagorgon was the power couple fight?

strong ridge
#

pinkie

twilit lodge
#

Yeah she’s with the stompy statue thing

hard viper
#

I have only encountered that once but won, I guess I didn't recognize the megagorgon

#

tho tbh I tend to avoid minibosses in asphodel when possible

twilit lodge
#

Why? Witches circle is a free room /s

hard viper
#

was gonna say lol

#

oh yeah there was one heat thing that made you need to clear each area faster. What actually happens if you fail to clear it within that time?

twilit lodge
#

Chaos egg Styx is gaming right

hard viper
#

still on 2 heat here lol

#

kinda noob

#

my best time is like 25 min or smth

twilit lodge
#

FO1 pays you to take heat

strong ridge
#

maas do u have the whole mirror yet

twilit lodge
#

No anvil in Styx shop

#

Twin shot relentless chiron build it is then

#

Just scum

latent moon
#

damn didn't get curse of nausea and i had 2 good chances to get it in styx

twilit lodge
#

🤮

latent moon
#

3/4 duos tho not bad for 2nd try

#

miniboss dio and 450 ares in shop

#

so i had a pretty decent chance

twilit lodge
#

Tiny vermin gaming

#

At least his adds die when he does

#

Unlike the other minis

#

(In Styx)

#

Hmm purple wave pounding, oceans bounty, or breaking wave

lean timber
#

wave pounding usually

twilit lodge
#

Do I prepare for 5sack

lean timber
#

that's rupture right?

twilit lodge
#

Or do I prepare for dad

lean timber
#

oh yeah

twilit lodge
#

Breaking is wall splash

#

Pounding is boss

rustic vale
rustic vale
twilit lodge
#

Cue 5sack

lean timber
#

ew those all suck. i would do breaking wave unless a lot of your damage comes from pos

rustic vale
#

wait

#

watittt

strong ridge
#

no bounty likers

#

smh

rustic vale
#

breaking wave unless you're darkness farming

twilit lodge
#

My only pos damage is dash lol

rustic vale
#

breaking wave > wave pounding imo

lean timber
#

yeah breaking wave

twilit lodge
#

Fair

lean timber
#

that would be best

latent moon
#

breaking wave 2nd best pos boon

lean timber
#

wrong

strong ridge
#

1s is ocean bounty

twilit lodge
#

rerolls and takes white oceans bounty

lean timber
#

best boon is posideon's aid, 2nd best boon is rip current bouldy

strong ridge
#

you mispell

#

ocena bounty

latent moon
#

ngl at this point if i dont get 3/4 gods i want from tart i'm gonna reset

well issue is that i've already got a good run and it's gonna be really hard to top that

twilit lodge

why would it increase max hp lmao

The only other times you see HP increase that low is from Darkness, and that's max HP.

buoyant harbor
#

When you have lasting consequences 3 on, does onion not heal you at all then? 🤔

twilit lodge
#

Feather duster

reef glen
#

is there a way to get more than 4 deity boons?

#

besides hermes

twilit lodge
#

Yes

#

You can get 4 naturally in Tartarus, then force two more

latent moon
#

three more*

twilit lodge
#

I guess you could even force 3 more if you felt like it

high island
#

You can get 5 naturally in Tartarus, in fact.

latent moon
#

oh yeah that's true

reef glen
#

how?

buoyant harbor
#

So I guess theoretically you could get up to 8 with keepsakes, although that interaction is quite unlikely to happen in Tartarus.

twilit lodge
#

Easy answer to simply “get more than 4”: equip coin purse, clear tart and get four different gifs

high island
#

If you only have 3 gods in your pool by the time you reach Styx shop, you should in fact be able to get all 8 naturally there. I've only been able to get 7 naturally myself that way, but 8 should be possible in theory.

twilit lodge
#

Gods

#

After Tartarus equip a god keepsake for a god you haven’t met this run

high island
#

Coin Purse doesn't have anything to do with any of it.

twilit lodge
#

That gives you 5

twilit lodge
vital tapir
#

you can get 5 pre-asphodel via the shop thing other users just mentioned

high island
#

The only way to actually have boons from all of the gods by the end of the run is to get to Styx with only 3 and find the remaining naturally, since that's the only way you can find all 8 and also have the Sigil of the Dead equipped by the end of the run. dusa

vital tapir
#

actually i wonder if you could get a surprise boon + normal boon in the tartarus midshop

high island
#

8 + Lord Hermes + Master Chaos + Bouldy (presumably) + God of the Dad.

twilit lodge
#

Never seen a normal boon alongside the shop boon bag

vital tapir
#

i think i have but i could easily be misremembering

latent moon
#

im fairly certain it's possible

#

not common tho

twilit lodge
#

Cause of Death: Beetle

high island
#

The only second boon you can see in Tartarus mid-shop is Lord Hermes.

twilit lodge
#

So Achilles start arti attack, then get ares cast?

#

Buen?

#

Sounds like gaming

vital tapir
#

fuego

rustic vale
#

I thought it started with splash dash

#

I may remember wrong though

twilit lodge
#

No attack after reroll

#

But blue dash

#

So it starts with splash dash at least this time

#

Ugh I avoided Athena twice including shop and now she’s forced upon me rip

high island
#

Tidal Dash start is the meta, yeah.

twilit lodge
#

Now dio forced on me

#

This run is cursed

#

Strong drink in a fountain room, could be worse

high island
#

Dionysus' Aid is good. Strong Drink is nice. Refreshing Nectar is good.

rustic vale
#

dio cast achilles

twilit lodge
#

Dare me to do it

#

Arti in end shop at least

#

Left tart at 3:07, actually pretty good for me

high island
#

3:07 Tartarus is still potentially sub 12 pace, I suppose.

If you do zeus special boon on lucifer exagryph, do they proc lightning while they sit or when they explode?

The little hellfire balls

rustic vale
static harbor
#

can you get flurry attacks for all aspects?

#

I've always been wondering because I don't seem to get it for some aspects of the sword or spear

#

could be that my luck is terrible though lol

terse geyser
static harbor
#

ah yeah makes sense

terse geyser
#

nor can arthur, iirc

#

but you don't want flurry on sword anyways

static harbor
#

thank you!!

terse geyser
#

it buffers too much

static harbor
#

ah I see

terse geyser
#

makes empty dashing out of attacks (and specifically dash-strikes) impossible

#

so no iframes

static harbor
#

is it a common issue?

terse geyser
#

(I've lost two final boss fights to that recently and I'm bitter)

static harbor
#

because I've never felt it when I have flurry on the sword

#

it's possible I never noticed it tho

terse geyser
#

your second dash WILL be a dash-strike

static harbor
#

ahh I see, I'll try later

#

it's a shame because it improves the sword's gameplay by a lot, in my opinion :(

terse geyser
#

...
I mean

#

it shouldn't

#

as you ought to be mostly dash-striking

static harbor
#

yeah but I need to spam click

#

part of the reason I put flurry when I can on my weapon is that it makes the fighting a lot smoother

#

even though I'm mostly dash striking*

swift inlet
#

Just play achilles spear

#

Better than sword and you get a flurry strike hammer that's actually good

static harbor
#

I often pick this when playing spear yeah

#

when I don't use hades' aspect

acoustic bolt
#

does minotaur rush work with charged shot?

swift inlet
#

Probably, but like

#

Why

#

Actually nvm I forgot not every shield is beo bouldy

acoustic bolt
#

i don't really know i've never used minotaur rush

#

does it have to charge all the way?

swift inlet
#

Yeah, it's like a bow's power shot

mint coral
#

Ye

acoustic bolt
#

power shot doesn't charge all the way it has like a sweet spot

#

at least that's how it hought bow worked

swift inlet
#

That's a fully charged shot

#

It just stops being a power shot if you wait too long

acoustic bolt
#

wait you can just fire it when it's completely taut and it's still a power shot as long as you don't wait too long?

#

i thoguht it had to be right as it flashes

terse geyser
swift inlet
#

The window you have to wait is when it flashes

brisk trail
#

wut?

lucid elk
#

Wrong channel

lucid elk
#

I know you saw

#

My point still stands

#

So um bye

brisk trail
lucid elk
#

Wait if you saw what did I say

acoustic bolt
#

what did you say?

lucid elk
#

I said nothing

#

I said Skelly is my new fav npc

#

And I only know 5

acoustic bolt
#

i don't see why this wouldn't be the channel for that

#

@brisk trail is that what they said?

lucid elk
#

._.

brisk trail
#

it's a secret

acoustic bolt
#

yeah well if you're going to lie make it a believable one

lucid elk
#

It is believable if it was a lie which is isn't.

acoustic bolt
#

there's like three channels that would fit in and this is one of them

sly ridge
#

does anyone else here play hades on switch

acoustic bolt
#

@rustic vale does for sure

terse geyser
#

skelly's quest is pretty good

#

but uhh
as far as npcs go, my favorite will always be artemis

#

with aphrodite a DISTANT second

swift inlet
#

This is mom slander

#

And by mom I mean real mom, Nyx

grim arrow
#

okay but consider achilles

swift inlet
#

Nyx literally went full puppetmaster doing everything she could to help Zagreus, not to mention healing the divide between the underworld and olympus

#

And as far as olympians go, Athena and Hermes are goated too

#

Athena was the first olympian to agree to help Nyx and Zagreus, even if she straight up knew something fishy was going on. She's also the only Olympian that doesn't truly get offended if you pick someone else over her in trials, and just attacks you because it's business

terse geyser
#

...

swift inlet
#

And Hermes is just a speedy boi that wants to help his cousin out + never causes drama

terse geyser
#

you're right, of course
hermes is a very fun guy

#

close third.

hard viper
#

hermes is cool

#

most of his boons are ass but dodge chance is v nice

swift inlet
#

Hermes literally gives you disgusting obliteration boons

#

Or he puts a whoopie cushion under you when you sit down

#

There is no in between (except side hustle 🙏)

#

quick recovery can be nice for heat but that's about it

terse geyser
hard viper
terse geyser
#

shame Kreedu

#

let's see, what else does hermes have

#

oh yeah

swift inlet
#

Yeah it's abysmal

brisk trail
#

you need some sort of speed boost before you can get it

terse geyser
#

greatest reflex

swift inlet
#

Actually greatest reflex is an upper mid boon

#

Nice for traversal/safety and helps some weapons with dps

terse geyser
#

sword

#

also spear

swift inlet
#

Mostly sword

#

Achilles just uses flurry anyway

#

Reflex helps anything running ME at least

terse geyser
#

still

swift inlet
#

Extra dash = more splash dash 🧠

terse geyser
#

also splash

acoustic bolt
#

flurry cast is useless most of the time

#

even on cast builds it often doesn't matter

latent moon
#

it's just convenient on cast builds but not something you're aiming for lmao

#

flurry cast beo tho

lean timber
#

flurry cast is really cool in concept

#

cast delivery: your cast gains bonus damage proportional to your cast speed

acoustic bolt
#

i mean on beo you can also just hit the casts while it's going off and it'll still work

#

it's good sometimes but i wouldnt' call it op by any means

rustic vale
rustic vale
rustic vale
acoustic bolt
#

Flurry jab is crazy

rustic vale
#

Flurry jab and +150% attack / cast damage is huge

acoustic bolt
#

Here watch this

#

You basically special dash strike hold the attack button and hit dash again and you just zoom around stabbing. It's so fast Zagreus doesn't leave the dash strike stance between the attacks

#

What does vrej mean

#

It means bruh? Or is that the reaction to my question? Lol

rustic vale
#

Where is your splash dash thanthink

swift inlet
#

No wonder you think it's bad

#

you should be starting with splash dash

acoustic bolt
#

I mean Achilles hunting blades is just a win

swift inlet
#

Yeah, but the strat is to start splash dash to help your damage early on

#

How

#

You literally just

#

Hit right click twice

#

Then mash cast

#

Don't let him darkness 4head

#

Oh you have literally 0 boosts to your cast

#

That's an issue

rustic vale
short glen
#

Achilles players are like "get the boon, get several poms, get at least one chaos and the Charon well item and it's the best weapon in the game"

swift inlet
#

Cast ammo + damage are what castspects scale with best besides the global rd

rustic vale
short glen
#

Meanwhile heartbreak strike Arthur go brrrrrr

rustic vale
rustic vale

#

Is hunting blades a tier 1 boon or tier 2 or a duo I don't remember

swift inlet
#

A duo

terse geyser
swift inlet
rustic vale
#

artemis ares

lean timber
#

T2 hunting blades might actually make ares cast viable

swift inlet
#

^

rustic vale
#

You take splash dash artemis attack and ares cast and you win

swift inlet
#

Buff duo hunting blades to make each hit of the cast critical

short glen
#

Achilles players are just like "just get the duo boon and you win" and Beowulf players are like "just get a duo and a specific hammer"

lean timber
#

wait whoa no way mirage shot works on blade??

#

no way

swift inlet
lean timber
#

oh my...

swift inlet
#

P sure mirage works on every cast

lean timber
#

mmmmmmm...

high island
#

Any level of Hunting Blades can let you just throw it and run away vs Hades, but low DPS can be an issue in phase 2 when his skulls are stacking up and you're not experienced in evading all of that.

#

Mirage Shot works on anything but Thunder Flare.

lean timber
#

i guess i never considered mirage shot on blade tbh

#

just felt wrong to even think about

high island
swift inlet
high island
#

I mean him going invisible doesn't do any damage lol.

rustic vale
#

Mirage shot on hunting blades is a free pick up if you find it because you already take artemis attack and pos dash anyways

#

and you’re using a castpect

swift inlet
# high island ?

He's joking about how you think your blades will shred him, but then he does the wakeup-darkness

lean timber
#

yeh but running away like that is a waste of time and then u gotta go get your stupid bloodstone from wherever it ran off to (unless running stygian which is ?)

swift inlet
#

Just ukemi trap hades honestly

high island
#

Yeah, that's what I mean. When you have low DPS and skulls are stacking up, that can be difficult to deal with if you're not experienced.

lean timber
swift inlet
#

You're basically constantly crossing him up anyway

lean timber
#

i love dashing into shockwave

#

favorite thing to do

#

i'm rly good at it.

short glen
#

Same

high island
#

unless running stygian which is ?
A decent option for Hunting Blades.

lean timber
#

i know but stygian just bleh

#

too much hera in my brain to even think about it

swift inlet
#

Dashing into hitboxes is entirely viable what

high island
#

Stygian Soul + Trippy Flare is also a decent Hera build.

swift inlet
#

That's like the easiest way to dodge things that chase you

#

Like em4 hades' double spin

#

Better to dodge in to get away than in the same direction he's going

lean timber
rustic vale
lean timber
#

I HATE IT

rustic vale
#

Trippy is based

lean timber
#

no it makes me sad.

high island
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

rustic vale
#

You’re just said because y’aint based

high island
#

It's no Crush Shot after all.

lean timber
#

so true

high island
#

The only Cast that is better than Crush Shot is Shatter Shot.

#

Lady Aphrodite outdoing herself again. dusa

lean timber
#

more patch lore

#

what did shatter shot do

high island
#

It's basically Blown Kiss range but 5 hits and better base damage and scaling.

lean timber
#

FIVE HITS

rustic vale
#

based

lean timber
#

auuuughhhh...

high island
#

Yeah.

#

Imagine pressing Cast once and it shreds armor and then kills them.

#

Also.

lean timber
#

how does it have better base damage. how much more can it be than 100 base. that's already pretty good

rustic vale
#

I can’t spell

high island
#

56% chance to Charm every time you press Cast if you have her legendary. dusa

#

Because 5 hits. dusa

lean timber
#

pbbptlltbtlpphh

high island
#

That was my favorite build. I actually stopped playing Hades for a couple months when they nerfed it to Crush Shot.

lean timber
#

that's ridiculous

#

why would they do this... surely it's not overpowered...

#

it seems just fine to me... fair AND balanced...

high island
#

Exactly.

#

They're trying to hide Lady Aphrodite's true power.

lean timber
#

i wish i hadn't asked because now i want to play shatter shot hera 💔

high island
#

I imagine Hades Modding server would know how to bring it back.

lean timber
#

i will not... mod my game... i must resist...

#

this is terrible...

nooooooo

lean timber
#

NOOOO THAT IS CHEATING

latent moon
#

lmfao

lean timber
#

so is shatter shot tbh

#

from the sound of it

latent moon
#

shatter shot sounds like what glacial glare wants to be

lean timber
#

glacial glare is such a mistake

#

wait glacial glare is the cast buff duo right?

latent moon
#

mod the game to rebalance all the boons lmao

lean timber
#

what is that again

latent moon
#

t2 dem cast upgrade

#

inflicts chill and lasts longer

lean timber
#

oh applies chill

latent moon
#

upgrading it increases time

lean timber
#

dem cast is such a sad sight. deserves more tbh

latent moon
#

default should inflict chill tbh

acoustic bolt
#

Glacial glare makes it pretty good

#

If it inflicted chill default it would be a lot better yeah

#

And should qualify for the t2 that explodes at 10 chill

latent moon
#

i mean tbh even if default inflicted chill you'd still need to hunt down glacial glare

high island
#

Oh and Lady Demeter wasn't there yet.

latent moon
#

oh yeah ddash opening ME

high island
#

Neither were Wringers or Dracons or the Wretched Sneak or...

acoustic bolt
#

I hate sneak so much

latent moon
#

true

#

sneak is cringe

#

doomstone miniboss is best tart miniboss

#

what legendary

acoustic bolt
#

I wish dash opened me so I could have nemesis Arty attack/aphro special/ddash

high island
#

Just summon Meg or Master Achilles & Patroclus to make the Wretched Sneak disappear lol.

#

Skill issue.

latent moon
#

dont need dem legendary for it to be good

acoustic bolt
#

I mean you basically just need the duo. Glare makes it actively great though.

It's not like you're doing ares cast without hunting blades

latent moon
acoustic bolt
#

Sorry I meant I wish it opened reversal

high island
#

Slicing Shot with Engulfing Vortex isn't too bad tbh. Budget Hunting Blades.

latent moon
acoustic bolt
#

DR just doesn't exist anyway

#

Sea storm and deadly reversal just secretly hate me

#

Smair loves me though

#

So that's nice

latent moon
#

smair gaming

#

i always forget that i need the call to get smair lmao

acoustic bolt
#

I need to learn to just take the call in tart and suffer the lower rush delivery chances when I want smair

#

I always find it but not until Styx lol

latent moon
#

swind isn't too bad tho tbh

acoustic bolt
#

True

latent moon
#

obv it's not rd but it's still not bad with smair and better than the other hermes options

#

it's what, dodge and move speed?

acoustic bolt
#

Yeah

#

Get rush delivery and smair find second wind in styx

latent moon
#

take plume, get swindd and rd no hyper sprint lmao

acoustic bolt
#

Lol

@brisk trail for like casual playing an asphodel mirage is fine, even Ely but if you don't get it before heroes then it just sucks

It's not bad damage but it's super lacking

So I gave Charon ambrosia. Is there anything left to do with him now?

I used the heat challenge that takes away boon choices and I real8sed I'm not good enough at the game to play like that

#

Went from usually no death defiance used to dying in dad fight

rustic vale
lean timber
#

no

#

ri2+

#

arguably ri1

rustic vale
#

Dc on hesty in combo with all the other heat options you’d have on

lean timber
#

pretty much

snow skiff
#

AP2 is free heat

lean timber
rustic vale
#

Just get better rng

#

Wait are you the legacy stan

rustic vale
#

Idk I know some aspects hate some heat options enough to take ap1 over

#

I think?

snow skiff
#

ap1 is pretty much free heat at 50 though

rustic vale
#

I actually don’t know

snow skiff
#

you have a lot of choices with 2 choices

rustic vale
#

It’s cuz you run legacy

snow skiff
#

you can pull off a lot of ME 50 heats with EM4 AP1

rustic vale
#

I have this lifehack called complaining about bad rng on the super giant games discord

#

it fixes 87% of my rng problems

#

Pride fixes the other 13%

snow skiff
#

just spent 1 minute on an asphodel room with speeder fo2 wavemakers #blessed

safe tinsel
#

I wanted to "go where the boons take me"

#

Ye

#

Aspect of beowulf prob wasn't the best choice for this tho

#

The slow attacks did not help

rustic vale
#

I mean that’s like 1/3 options

#

unless you were running ap2

#

Then why does it matter?

lean timber
snow skiff
#

bruh this weapon is actually unbearable

#

34 seconds overtime 🤭

strong ridge
#

not enof zoos atk

snow skiff
#

i have sf

safe tinsel
#

Maybe try better aspect lol

#

Zag aspects are not usually that good

#

There are exceptions ofc

snow skiff
#

the point is to push heat on zag rail though

rustic vale
lean timber
#

push this ratio

rustic vale
#

Every zag aspect is great

#

I love them all

vital tapir
#

em3

safe tinsel
#

Eh to each their own ig

snow skiff
#

no its not i got it in like c11 so i finished tart ~22 seconds overtime

lean timber
#

zag sword: good
zag spear: bad
zag shield: great
zag bow: great
zag fists: okay
zag rail: good

#

imo

safe tinsel
#

You should win this time bc u have heart of stone. With bouldy's blessign I think its impossible to lose

lean timber
#

heart of stone prevents overtime damage

#

btw

#

any boon

rustic vale
lean timber
#

it's garbage and u literally know that

vital tapir
#

zag spear is a candidate for the worst aspect

rustic vale
#

i literally don’t

lean timber
#

you should

rustic vale
snow skiff
#

at least it's not a downgrade over aspectless spear

#

cough talos cough

lean timber
#

chaos is not the worst aspect.

rustic vale
rustic vale

chaos > beowulf

safe tinsel

🍿

snow skiff
#

chaos has 61 heat and beo only has 60 lmfaooo 😂

lean timber
#

show me a run where you aren't actively fiending for those things and not having fun if you don't find them

#

"neither cool nor egg" is my favorite line from that honestly

#

so funny

snow skiff
#

talos wr is 3:45 and hera wr is 4:46

#

talos > hera

lean timber
#

surely there's a zag sword copypasta

rustic vale
#

Copy pasta for pos sword and hunters mark please 🙏

safe tinsel
#

Guys what if u just do 0 heat. Wouldn't that make you quicker?

lean timber
#

no

rustic vale
snow skiff
#

the other ones don't get breaching

latent moon
#

bruh lmfao

#

that's actually hilarious

lean timber
#

fo2 makes enemies spawn much faster, em2 makes the lernie heads group together for potential of doublekills + smaller island = faster to get to the other side

latent moon
#

do dem and zag get offered rush kick or something like that

lean timber
#

yeah

snow skiff
#

yeah

latent moon

talos best fist i guess

Me spending 4 and a half mins on tart while wr finished minutes ago. bouldy

#

td3 tart is actually kinda difficult if the aspect sucks

lean timber
#

tart is the place most runs die to the timer tbf. it's either tart or styx no in between

latent moon

#

you can time out in ely if youre like running chiron js3

no

#

when you beat a boss the in game timer pauses

lean timber
#

no. timer stops as soon as boss dies. everything until your next combat chamber is free time

latent moon
#

idk if it pauses in story rooms actually

#

i'd assume so

lean timber
#

it does

latent moon
#

makes sense

#

wait i mean like

#

the TD death thingy

#

but yeah i'd assume that'd pause too

lean timber
#

a story room can't be the first room in a biome anyway

#

well yeah if the timer stops td stops as well lol

#

YES THE DEATH THINGY IS CAUSED BY THE TIMER

latent moon
#

the TD timer and in game timer work on the same mechanics

rustic vale
#

idk just get better rng man

lean timber
#

if it doesn't increase damage taken it's free

rustic vale
#

Like I said, complaining about bad rng on the sgg discord fixes 87% of my rng problems

snow skiff
#

If it does increase that it's still free

It’s not mind blowing, but the good thing is that there’s a ton of easy optimisation at this stage to get faster
