   (current_bonus_dmg + 1) /
   current_max_ammo```
That's how much bonus burst damage you get from +1 ammo. So without any bonus damage, a Grasp is equivalent to +33% Cast damage. That's not factoring in the time it takes to load all your ammo or for all of your Casts to go boom etc.

[manic kraken]

yeah

and also most things wont need a 3rd let alone 4th cast

[latent moon]

Another way of figuring out what's better is by assuming your casts deal 100 damage and seeing what gives more overall

[latent moon]

With mirage shot and the 74% bonus you'll probably only need 1 cast per enemy in Elysium

Except like butterfly balls and big chariots

Maybe shield bros but idk

[gray apex]

You'll probably one shot those anyway

[kindred onyx]

WAIT WHAT DO YOU MEAN!?

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/638031423340806185/1061736964342161428/IMG_0567.jpg

Does that mean I can’t get any more rewards with this aspect ?

[rustic vale]

You get darkness instead

[kindred onyx]

Or like all bow aspects

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[rustic vale]

Is that chiron ee

[vital spade]

It means git gud son

[kindred onyx]

Amir!

[latent moon]

time to learn how to play something else lmao

[kindred onyx]

How about the rail then ?

Oh it’s at 17

[vital spade]

Spear ez if u want ez

[kindred onyx]

Varatha?

18

And I sure ain’t gonna do stygian

[rustic vale]

Just do whatever you want to

go for 32 heat on bow

[kindred onyx]

Well

[rustic vale]

That’s the jump

[vital spade]

You’re a noob until you’ve done 63 heat with every single aspect

[rustic vale]

Anything between 20 heat and 32 heat isn’t real

[kindred onyx]

Good thing I just ended my 69 win streak

[vital spade]

[kindred onyx]

Killed myself right outside the window on 70 just to get that 69 on the end card

But yeah
I was hoping I’d get more rewards from the bow

[rustic vale]

It ends at 20 on every weapon

[kindred onyx]

Oh

[vital spade]

[kindred onyx]

Well then
Let’s jump straight to 32

How bad could it be?

BRB

[rustic vale]

Even with all the prophecies completed and all weapons at 20 you still need to trade for titans blood or fish to get enough blood for all aspects btw

[vital spade]

I went from 20 > 32 and beat 32 on my first try so it’s really not that big a jump imo

[rustic vale]

Matty went from 8->32 so nothing less then that impresses me anymore

[vital spade]

1 > 63

[rustic vale]

0 > 64

[latent moon]

If you ignore the trashpects then you'll have enough

[rustic vale]

Nothing in the game is bad

[latent moon]

Gilga

[rustic vale]

Some things are just worse then others

[latent moon]

Lmfao

[rustic vale]

Should probably get some insight on how to build a 32 heat pact rather then just hitting random options and hoping for the best

[latent moon]

Ngl the hardest part of 32 heat is learning lc4 sd

But it's not even necessary

[rustic vale]

Js3 bp2 cp2 dc2

[latent moon]

Cringe

[rustic vale]

The perfect 32 pact

[latent moon]

Actually I'm gonna do that later today

Which aspect

[gray apex]

Chaos

[rustic vale]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/795659377755422742/1059554971487584318/IMG_2725.png

[latent moon]

Oh boy

[gray apex]

And use EM4

[rustic vale]

Use this pact

[latent moon]

I won't use that pact because ri bad

[latent moon]

Aight

Guess I'll learn it somehow

What other pacts

[gray apex]

HL5

[rustic vale]

The rest of those ones on there other then ri

[latent moon]

This is only 12, em4 is 22

27 hl5

Td3?

[gray apex]

no

FO2

Keep TD0

You're gonna need it

[latent moon]

That's 33 isn't it

[gray apex]

You're on chaos

[latent moon]

Fair

Thank you

[gray apex]

np im sure you'll have fun

[latent moon]

Im 1 heat over lmao

Based 33 pact

[rustic vale]

Icy flare beo

[latent moon]

No that's actually doable

I'll use chaos

At 33 heat

Gotta beat my chaos pb yaknow

[gray apex]

If Chaos doesnt work do Guan yu

Your call

[latent moon]

Oh god lmfao

I'll stick with chaos

[gray apex]

Guan Yu is so good

Underrated high heat weapon

[latent moon]

I recognize guan Yu is good

I'm just bad at it

[gray apex]

I almost got 50 heat with lv1 lol

[latent moon]

Lmfao

[rustic vale]

Take lightning strike and pos special

[latent moon]

Maybe

[rustic vale]

https://tenor.com/view/are-ya-winning-son-gif-18099517

[latent moon]

Not yet haven't started

[rustic vale]

Smh

[latent moon]

Not home rn smh

[rustic vale]

Just dash back home ez

[latent moon]

Dash doesn't have that much range

[rustic vale]

Nanas using serrated point with ruthless reflex fr

[rustic vale]

Should’ve gotten hypersprint tbh

[latent moon]

True

Need more ichors

[serene halo]

hi everyone

i just wanna ask something

do the cross-save work for switch to pc

or if it's only pc to switch

[rustic vale]

I think it’s both ways but I don’t know

[serene halo]

oh ok

nice

[kindred onyx]

Hang on

Am I gonna make it on my first attempt ?

I just got out of Elysium
3dds to spare and 7 minutes
With a swift 2 sack and some luck…

🤞

[latent moon]

Is this 32 heat

[kindred onyx]

Yes

[rustic vale]

Using dd’s for 32 heat

[kindred onyx]

First time playing 32

[gray apex]

With 7 minutes you can afford a 3 sack atleast

[latent moon]

Is this chiron

[kindred onyx]

Can I now?

[gray apex]

Unless it's EM4 or CP2 or some chad pact

[kindred onyx]

I’m not that fast

[latent moon]

Dc10

[gray apex]

I mean a good build needs like 2 minutes for Hades

[rustic vale]

Unless it’s an actually horrid pact you should be good

[kindred onyx]

It’s …
Both

[latent moon]

3 minute Styx 4 min dad is like more than enough time

Oh

[kindred onyx]

[gray apex]

welp

nevermind then

[latent moon]

This is so based

[rustic vale]

That’s what not using lc4 does to a mf

[gray apex]

you probably need a 2 sack

so gl

[latent moon]

Gamer

[rustic vale]

this is why we take lc4 and avoid em4 and cp2

[latent moon]

Well lc4 is enough heat to avoid em4

Cp2 comes from not taking like idk

[gray apex]

Could be TD

[latent moon]

Fo or bp or something

[gray apex]

I think this is TD2

[latent moon]

I assumed td3 and they got out of Ely with 2 minutes to spare

[rustic vale]

TD2 for 32 heat 😳

[latent moon]

And then another 5 got added

[gray apex]

Could be

[rustic vale]

Nvrmind I know I’ve seen reddit 40 heat clears with td0 so it’s not that bad

[gray apex]

I've done 50 with TD0 wanna see it

[latent moon]

Yes

[rustic vale]

That sounds painful

[gray apex]

It took 1 attempt so my pact is optimal

[latent moon]

Lmfao

[gray apex]

[rustic vale]

I mean I was expecting a win just a longer time

[gray apex]

There you go

[rustic vale]

And I was right

[kindred onyx]

AND I GOT A GODDAMN TINY VERMIN

Rip run

[rustic vale]

CP2 tiny vermin lmao

[kindred onyx]

So it’s a 3 sack then Al

At least

[gray apex]

Could still be doable

Depending on build and stuff

[latent moon]

Heart rend conc relentless epic swift flourish with 2 epic chaos flourish

[rustic vale]

On chaos shield

[latent moon]

That would make dad fight pretty easy ngl

[latent moon]

TRUE

I'm gonna do heart rend chaos

No I'm not

[rustic vale]

Too late to take it back

[latent moon]

Too bad

[kindred onyx]

3 minutes for an EM4 dad fight

I had a good run

[toxic trellis]

Nice nice

[latent moon]

1 min each phase

Easy

[rustic vale]

Em4 cp2 dad fight*

[latent moon]

Also TD doest insta kill

So you're chilling

[kindred onyx]

Yeah I know

[latent moon]

Oh yeah he's got 10k extra hp in 2 phases

[gray apex]

You just have to play well

[kindred onyx]

I already ran out of time in Elysium

[gray apex]

It's not really dead yet

[rustic vale]

30% longer em4 fight sounds fun

[kindred onyx]

[gray apex]

so its td2

[kindred onyx]

Well

Wish me luck

[latent moon]

Oh gamer

[latent moon]

What cp2 does to a mf

[kindred onyx]

Nope
Didn’t make it

It was damn close though

Ran out of time on phase 3

I’m still damn proud of myself

It honestly wasn’t as difficult as I expected

[rustic vale]

Tbh it sounds like your pact is the issue

What’s the full pact?

[kindred onyx]

pfff
i turned off the console already

don't worry about it i can figure it out myself

it wasn't a pact issue
it was a skill issue

still
im satisfied with this run
i've put up one hell of a fight

[royal crystal]

Yes I do have Guan-Yu revealed and unlocked
Both of the rail gun aspect are level 2 and 3
Completed 3 runs after soft-resetting my data and still didn't get the "I see your prideful fall down from the heavens to the flames"
and yeah I have bad rng

[vital spade]

Haydeez

[carmine wraith]

Double check to make sure you have guan yu revealed

[rustic vale]

Do runs with rail to make sure you get zeus to comment on your using it or until you get waking phrase tbh

“Soft-reseting”?

If you mean reseting vis giving up it gives you the same seed so going back into the same seed should give you the same dialogue

I swear it’s the same opening cut scene each time, huh

Dad says the same things whenever I use the same seed

Sometimes

Not often though

[vital spade]

I wish I could buy zagrus’s used socks

[royal crystal]

wait so it doesn't change anything cuz it's the same seed?

I only have 30 hours into the game so thank you for telling me

that's why I get the same exact boons everytime I reset even though I switch keepsakes

[vital spade]

What heat have you beat in 30 hours

[royal crystal]

3

[vital spade]

[royal crystal]

with different weapons

[runic meadow]

hello everyone!! I tried Hades from game pass and got hooked, bought the game, now I'm playing it non stop

[vital spade]

On the grind huh

[runic meadow]

(f for those who didn't pay attention to Hades vanishing from it)

[royal crystal]

btw how much Hades cost for originally

[vital spade]

Hopefully hades 2 has more than 4 lvls

It’s almost like they could adjust the length

6 would be a solid number imo

[royal crystal]

Hestia or Eris for quick runs?

(Hestia lvl 3 and Eris lvl 2)

[raw herald]

At this stage, eris

[royal crystal]

Zeus boons on attack will do right?

[runic meadow]

Hades for PSVita when

[raw herald]

Yes

[latent moon]

I think like $25

USD

[manic kraken]

FINALLY

guan yu lvl 1 is brutal lmao

[royal crystal]

Damn I bought it for 4 bucks

Ig it's a deal

[latent moon]

Really?

I've never seen hades more than 50% off lmao

[royal crystal]

yeah

Rp. 60,000 to be exact

(3,84 USD)

[latent moon]

Dang nice

[strong ridge]

they could do it risk of rain style and have each level have 2 possible locations

but half the maps in ror2 blow imo so it might be better they full focus 1 location per level

[royal crystal]

to keyboard players, aimed or auto-aim?

why'd you turn off on rail?

[latent moon]

So you actually hit the shots

Tracking movies enemies while you're moving yourself is quite difficult

[rich horizon]

actively cackling, zagreus has a line that's "we're not finished" when he runs down hades' first health bar, and hades has a line that's "we're not finished" when he gets back up and I got those in quick sucession, it was hilarious

[stone wedge]

"we're not finished"
"we're not finished"
"stop copying me dad"

[deft python]

Friendship ended with zag fists. Arthur’s sword is my new best friend.

[fervent jewel]

i'm ares's friend now

and i had a good run with DOOM it was neat turning it into a weird mix of DOT and burst damage

[manic kraken]

I used to like spear but today I made myself win with guan yu lvl 1

I’m no longer a spear user

[rustic vale]

I’m a GY special enjoyer 💪

[manic kraken]

Oh yeah I was using the special

[latent moon]

@rustic vale i have left tartarus with that scuffed 33 heat pact

thank god for no td

cringe lvl 3 common aphro strike

but based +67% chaos atk boon

also using DDs at this heat is weird

this legitimately feels like 40 heat because of hl5 lmao

[deft python]

Gy is probably my second least favorite weapon

[bronze forge]

just used dinosysus's aid agsint him in a trial but didnt get acheivement

[latent moon]

has to be full call

[bronze forge]

o

like 100?

how do i do that

doesnt the fight usually end before that happens

[sonic fulcrum]

there is an Hermes boon that let your call charge automatically, so with it you just have to stall and you will get your greater call

[deft python]

Just dodge until it fills up

[sonic fulcrum]

or some other various boon that help you gain more call charge

[deft python]

Or if it’s a trial in elysium kill one of the shadow guys and then let him regen to farm him

[bronze forge]

ok

i would have to remove TD then

[latent moon]

or take a ton of damage lmao

more enemies also makes you charge call more

[bronze forge]

i love aspect of achilles

[wicked swan]

aim assist + aim at cursor

for exagryph turn off aim at cursor

[solid bane]

Finally starting to get up to medium amounts of heat(8-10) Out of all of them, I feel like Heightened Security and Convenience Fee are absolutely just massive scams for their heat cost lmao. On the other side, Extreme Measures 1+2, Damage Control 1(On some weapons), Tight Deadline, and Jury Summons are free.

[wicked swan]

damage control 1 isnt too hard imo
just pop them with casts

[solid bane]

Yeah. Also, extra cast stones on Stygian Soul feels absolutely absurd. Artemis+Athena runs are so funny when you get 3 cast stones+a high level phalanx shot.

[wicked swan]

big deflecting balls fr

[solid bane]

also, despite the Claws of Enkidu being awesome I hate them because I'm terrible at the input for dash uppers lmao

It bricks my timing for reason and I just cannot figure out why

So close to finally being able to check out #h1-story-discussion - just stalling out the epilogue quest until I get favor with my last two gods because I want to have them all done lol

[solid bane]

Also, from what I've read:

It seems I'm in the minority opinion for areas: Styx is my favorite by far(Especially the miniboss rooms, I typically can't stand the final chambers of non-miniboss Styx runs), and my least favorite is Elysium.

[celest cave]

Woohoo! Three times!

[solid bane]

Huh. That was a weird timing for dialogue, LOL.

Got the Eurydice dialogue with Zag learning she had met the Queen before...and then when I got back to the house, got the dialogue about the Persephone liking their music, only for Zag to still be surprised that they had met before.

[bronze forge]

how do i get to hermes ambrosia

[solid bane]

Talk to Hermes with a Lambent Plume at level 3

Should take a few times for the dialogue to proc.

[bronze forge]

oh you have to get the plume?

[bronze forge]

wb aphrodite and detemer

how do i know all three are done

i think ive gifter amrbosia to all of them

[rustic vale]

Max out on ambrosia given to them

[solid bane]

When you check their keepsake, there will be a chibi sticker of them on it

[bronze forge]

ohh the sticker

ok

also i just realized why zagreus feels sick every time he escapes

its hilarious

[bronze forge]

i havent maxed thanatos yet

[rustic vale]

That’s the issue

[bronze forge]

the son a b isnt always home

how do i get charged flight, explosive launcher, and kinetic launcher

[solid bane]

luck

They'll show up eventually, just keep taking the hammer and rolling the anvil

[bronze forge]

https://prnt.sc/vnVUhZ1vPYDM

it doesnt go with certain aspects

https://prnt.sc/qK44jMxQl-Su

be careful with your advice man

also whats the best fist

[rustic vale]

Demeter by a long shot

[rustic vale]

decent

[subtle sinew]

Dude max level than companion is insanely good against theseus and asterius

I believe im now at 15 escapes in a row

[latent moon]

Why does the level of the companion matter lmao it does the same damage doesn't it

[bronze forge]

lmao

i miss @high island

where is she

she doesnt hangout anymore

is she grindin 60 heat

[high island]

What?

[shell raft]

Can I ask was Hades One Early Acess paid or was free on epic/steam. I was just curious since I loved the first game and would like to get the second

[high island]

Paid.

You don't need to buy the game again after early access.

[shell raft]

Ohhhh wow definetly going to get it then

Thank you so much

[wicked swan]

i accidentally picked a chaos cast damage boon

on hera bow

💀

i am screwed

AND I PICKED BULL CHAMBER

NOOO

[latent moon]

just dont get hit

[tall trench]

Are there any restrictions to what Fateful Twist can be from Charon wells? Only notable thing I've ever gotten from it is a centaur heart, I tend to only buy it if I have obols to burn and hourglass. Wondering if it can yield kiss, ixion, or lure?

[latent moon]

def ixion

idk about the other two

[tall trench]

https://basicallyaverage.com/well-of-charon-hades-guide/

Maybe I am just ignorant to the true values here, but how can the same person who says ixion at 40 obols isn't a very good deal go on to say that lure at 60 obols is well worth the purchase?

Lure is like, only if I have lots of obols to burn or know I'm going into chaos next or maybe styx/surface

[latent moon]

meta game rewards good i guess idk

[tall trench]

Hmm okay well its good to know at least about ixion for sure, that's usually what I'm fishing for. It's a true desperation play to try and get kiss from twist

[tall trench]

Yeah I just feel like unless you're catching the rare fish from a biome which I don't think can be consistently expected it's usually a waste. Feels like too high of a chance you're spending 60 obols for like 20 gemstones or something

[latent moon]

ngl a guide for what to get from wells seems pretty pointless, you know what you need and what to look for, there isn't much point making a whole guide for it

just tell people "make sure to check wells for xyz" and dont go in depth

[tall trench]

Yeah, it's usually pretty obvious what is useful, the biggest mistake I make is not noticing a well is in a room until I see it as the door closes

Quitting out has become my friend

[latent moon]

lmao mood

i stopped doing that because it sometimes makes the game crash

for me at least

i've heard it's because of the modpack, but whatever

i'm more hesitant to do it

[tall trench]

I am doing merciful end rn and I almost walked out of an athena erebus while she wasn't in my god pool earlier, quit saved me

eh one of the few wins of being on console I suppose I'll take it

[latent moon]

lmao

on the other hand, not every pc gamer uses mods

[tall trench]

Sure but idk why lol. If I was half as interested in Hades as I am and was running it on PC I'd be using mods unless going for like strictly vanilla challenges or something

[old dawn]

people take lure ever? what

[latent moon]

chaos fish

[tall trench]

At least mods to help show what is going on with the game, feels like would make learning how to predict things easier

Yeah I take it if I'm going into chaos

[old dawn]

ig but even then, once you're done waste of money imo

[latent moon]

yeah

i'm assuming the guide is for newer players

[tall trench]

That guide also is really big on the value of the flaming chariots item which idk
Maybe they are more fearsome on high heat but to me they're more annoying than dangerous

75 obols is pretty steep just to get shield exalted in their place or something

[old dawn]

unless you're on dc2 bp2 they just die

[latent moon]

oh the flamewheels

i would've loved to get that item on my last few runs

god they were miserable

[old dawn]

but it depends on weapon how easily you can dispose of them safely

[latent moon]

chaos shield

[old dawn]

but yea getting nuked for no reason thanks to their swarms

[latent moon]

dc2 bp2 js3 cp2

why did i agree to do this

this is legit just a 55 heat pact without lc4 sd

and ap i guess

[old dawn]

lol

pact moment

[old dawn]

when you're playing bullet hell instead of escape from hell

[tall trench]

What's that thing in the lower left? Is that a mod thing or one of those ranks I haven't bought yet?

[old dawn]

enjoy

[latent moon]

resource director ranks

[old dawn]

resource director in dad chamber

[latent moon]

bro it's actually horrid

tart is so bad

aspho is actually not bad

lernie is always pain ofc

ely is the worst thing in the world

[old dawn]

the amount of times i get lernie taxed is astounding

ok lmk how is cp2 dad

em4

[latent moon]

uh

very long

[old dawn]

yes

[latent moon]

i got to middle of phase 3

i entered with 1 dd

[old dawn]

it be like that

[latent moon]

i found a corner where it's hard for him to reach

because he keeps walking back and forward around the corner

it's at the bottom where cerby enters, i cant get a pick of it on google images

[tall trench]

Did a lambent plume run to level it up and to get that achievement for +20% dodge from it. Probably missed a couple others but the only room I can remember not clearing the timer on was tartarus, pre attack boon, filled with nothing but savior skulls.

I was using the run to fill the prophecy of pacts I hadn't taken yet as well so trap damage was on there and that was a really dumb combo

[latent moon]

heightened security pain

[tall trench]

Yeah, that sucked and whichever measure it is again that makes it so you have fewer choices, I swear it was aware of what it was doing with the stuff it blocked out

Heightened security was okay even going fast except for lava and dad pots

[tired karma]

DC2 is free heat

[latent moon]

em1 and td1 are even more free

dc2 is actually much worse than it seems

not much worse i guess

but it is worse than it seems

[old dawn]

dc2 is pain on rama

[tall trench]

I'd rather take em1 and td1 over dc2 for sure. Feel like dc2 is way worse for some aspects than others but can still be a pain for any of them

em1 is like, you get out of tartarus and its done

[old dawn]

and some rails

[latent moon]

rama is like the one aspect that doesn't care about dc lmao

also it's only a pain on hestia for rail

[old dawn]

ig if you spam special

[latent moon]

the others can handle it fine

[latent moon]

you generally want to always lead with the special anyways and then hit the atk

[tall trench]

hestia dc2 sounds like pain. I guess you could just spam a magazine at things before going for damage but still pain

[old dawn]

now imagine bp2 skulls stacking more dc

and that took me a whole minute to deal with on hestia in a run once

[tall trench]

i legit thought that savior skulls room was unclearable for a sec with boonless fists

[tired karma]

dc2 is fine even on arthur

[tall trench]

I'd never seen that before

[latent moon]

dc2 really isn't fine

on arthur

like you're making them 3 shot

why

[old dawn]

ig i need to tag things more aggressively than i do rn then

[latent moon]

the idea is to like

tag a bunch

and then hit as many as possible with an atk

[tall trench]

I mean in isolation dc2 could only be so bad
but it's definitely not free heat

[old dawn]

yea i do that but it's still pain lol

[latent moon]

any pact by itself is fine at low heat

[tired karma]

I did only 36 heat on arthur with dc2 but it didn't bother me at all

[old dawn]

i cant imagine doing it on rama and the other stuff is even worse

[latent moon]

36 is like mid heat lmao

also why would you even take dc2 on arthur

there's a ton of other pacts to take

arthur can handle RI fine considering it just needs an attack boon

[tired karma]

I saw it as free heat

[latent moon]

[old dawn]

i run 32s because any more and the frames will say 💀 to my run making mistakes because of variable framerate sucks

[tired karma]

32 is mid but yeah I need to try 40+

[latent moon]

36 and 32 aren't too different unless you take like em4

[tall trench]

Why the framerate pain? Just a weak PC or is it something with the game?

[latent moon]

or some other horrid pacts together i guess

[old dawn]

thanks no thanks dyno

[latent moon]

both probably

[old dawn]

@tall trench laptop below min specs lol

[latent moon]

the game runs fine on good computers ofc, but it has it's moments sometimes

[tall trench]

Ah I gotcha, rip. Imagine when you one day upgrade though, removing the weighted training clothes

[old dawn]

i built a pc but still need my monitor

[tired karma]

It can stutter if u have weak cpu

[tall trench]

lol I mean if its a decent PC then the monitor to match can be decent expensive so I get it

[tired karma]

If it's decent pc u need 2k res monitor
1080p on decent pc is a crime

[tall trench]

I have been moving a ton this year so I'm on console even though my PC is good. Got into Hades as a good game for couch + controller

[old dawn]

planned 32:9 1440p since i'm not gonna use it mostly for gaming

[tired karma]

Asus has some great monitors
I have mine for 7 years and feels like brand new

[old dawn]

and i hate the bezels from connecting 2-3 monitors

[tall trench]

Yeah I feel that

[tired karma]

Not many games support 32:9

[old dawn]

not an issue

and definitely not a dealbreaker, i need sleek screen estate on a good panel

gaming is secondary and even then i think compat options are avail to run it in 16:9

[tired karma]

You only need hades for gaming

[old dawn]

from reading reviews & opinions on 32:9 monitors

[tired karma]

It's great for watching movies

[tall trench]

I have a really nice monitor with bells and whistles for the non-work rig but it's stupid expensive when you're getting high res and quick refresh rate at the same time, I feel like it's a scam because I can never notice the difference but then if I make a mistake an a low refresh rate then I'm tempted to blame the monitor

[old dawn]

i can imagine

trust me what i'm eyeing is also stupid expensive lol

[tall trench]

nice, well, like I said no reason to build a nice PC and then put a bad monitor on it

[old dawn]

the whole thing is stupid expensiv, i think i shelled out 3k usd on the tower already

[tired karma]

There's a huge difference even from 60hz to 75hz

[old dawn]

self built ofc because markups for assembly are absolutely disgusting here

[tall trench]

yeah same, I'd even be willing to pay for an assembler if any were reputable but it's mostly just a lazy tax

[tired karma]

165hz feels nice

Not much difference from it and 240hz though

Here the store u buy parts from assembles pc for free

[old dawn]

10~15% of parts' cost so yea

[tired karma]

Yikes

[tall trench]

I got 144hz on a very decent resolution and it hurt
The most painful thing was GPU, even today they're still overpriced like crazy
it's ridiculous in comparison how much cheaper storage has become though, even high speed m1

[old dawn]

wdym it hurt

im looking for 120hz in particular

[tall trench]

well yeah but even if you pay the cost I dunno, I wouldn't trust most assemblers. They may have done it more than most have but they don't care, when I did PC repair and people brought in self builds they were usually pretty wtf inside

It just hurt cause of price point, monitor is great

[old dawn]

ah

well thats why i avoid prebuilts

[tall trench]

Actually, yeah, these were mostly kinda a hybrid not sure what you'd consider them, I guess they'd be prebuilds, I'm thinking like ibuypower type stuff

[old dawn]

i benched mine already and it's looking fine, thermals stressed, perf looks about right compared to reference scores

[tall trench]

If you have a local assembler they'd probably do you better since they have to look you in the eye when they give it to you

[old dawn]

voltages look ok at stock, xmp isnt causing issues

i suppose

at this point i just need a monitor, i literally cant use the tv since its wall mounted and really high

[tall trench]

Ares is killing me right now. Did the 10k prophecy ages ago and his hearts just won't unlock

[old dawn]

my neck would give out if i worked like that

rip

[tall trench]

wait no
I just had to say it out loud
that was the trick apparently

I've been resetting runs to try and trigger it, probably for like an hour now

[old dawn]

complain and ye shall receive

[tall trench]

I don't even think the dialogue was different but I'm just sorta mashing through it at this point

[solid bane]

The truest of problems:

I've gotten too good at fishing and can no longer catch common fish so I'll never finish my Chlam codex entry

[old dawn]

close your eyes and time it only to the audio

then if you still hit perfect fish offset the audio

[tall trench]

Curse of Longing is useless on Merciful End, right? I think Merciful End just wipes the doom out entirely

[old dawn]

mm

it makes doom stick for longer making ME easier to proc but the thing with ME builds is that they apply doom super fast and pop it even faster with ddash

so it's kinda useless

[tall trench]

Yeah, that's sort of what I was thinking too, I imagine dire misfortune is a pretty useless take as well for similar reasons

[old dawn]

that one actually does something on fast weapons

[tall trench]

I mean, I almost took it for fist, but I got extra dashes from hermes finally and I have divine dash so I'm basically just dash striking for instant procs. I imagine maybe on something like rail or without divine dash it could be better?

[old dawn]

and is nice to have if you get it offered and everything else from that batch ends up bad

still not as good as impending doom tho

[tall trench]

I took battle rage instead because I figured it would make upper special good (demeter)

[old dawn]

yea makes sense

[tall trench]

yeah was hoping for impending doom but at this point don't need it lol, ME on its own clears around my heat I just wanna do dumb damage cause fun

also trying to understand ME more

[old dawn]

ares atk athena special and dash, impending doom, pom atk and impending doom a bit

basically

then fish for global damage increases i'd say

ofc all that getting ME which is the hard part lmao

[tall trench]

yeah that's my basic recipe, impending doom is just a big chunk of essentially free damage once you have divine dash, I just try and get reqs for it ASAP as far as trying to get the actual duo itself

[old dawn]

sadly it wont pop up with just ddash and a doom source

[tall trench]

It doesn't? It seems like it is for me

[old dawn]

but i kinda get why lmao

nah you need a diff athena core

iirc

[tall trench]

Oh you mean to get ME

[brazen mulch]

Hades?

[old dawn]

ye

[tall trench]

Yeah

[brazen mulch]

Ha deez nuts

[old dawn]

how about thanatos

[brazen mulch]

Also I'm terminally addicted to this game

Help

[old dawn]

quitting society straight into the wilderness is the only way to stop playing it

[brazen mulch]

Or I can do something better

[old dawn]

thana those nuts btw

[brazen mulch]

Get addicted to Nuclear Throne instead

Also got a question about the game

How do you finish certain quests

I'm trying to start Meg's quest but I have no clue what to do

I am playing this game kind of blind so

[void vigil]

the quests in this game are not always "quests" in the traditional video game meaning, some of them are completed just by playing the game and waiting on dialogue rng

[green plover]

just won my first EM4 run..

just barely though

[tired karma]

Now do EM4+FO2

[tired karma]

ME pops up only if u have athena on special/attack + ares on special/attack

It can be a drag to get ME + Divine Dash
And you need both for optimal ME build

But it's the most fun build for me
Especially on demeter fists

[slim matrix]

i found a very small inconsequential bug. is there any where i can put a picture of it? i dont really need any support or anything

[steady dove]

hello, can somone recomend me what weapons should i use my blood on ? i got 1 clear whit each weapon atm, so 6 in total, i do have 2 points in chirion bow and i got hidden spear unlocked , i got 18 more blood atm

[tired karma]

Eris rail

[steady dove]

im using conntroler so rail is a bit wonky

im not the hugest fan of sword movesets and rail tbh

[tired karma]

If u enjoy fists I would go for demeter
Very strong and fun

[steady dove]

also should i max 1 aspect or lvl up multiple ones to unlock the hidden ones

i think in term of enjoyment i like bow/spear most then shield / fist, i like the range builds more like special or cast focused

oh btw are there some resources like tier lists ? on google i found multiple opinions on whats best and it all depends on investment and heat

[tired karma]

Hidden ones are pretty good
Pinned post in story channel tells how to get then all

[steady dove]

i do know how to get them. but im unsure if its worth unlocking them or maxing a weapon instead

[tired karma]

Achilles for spear is best

[steady dove]

idk how do you farm blood once u are done whit the clearns of boss 1 and 4 on normal and heat 1 ? i already bought the blood i find in last lvl if i can afford it

[tired karma]

You can unlock them later
They aren't a deal breaker

[steady dove]

achiles is like eris but u dont have to get in the circle 😄

is there any other way to get blood once u beat the game ? or thats all the options

[tired karma]

You need to up your heat

[steady dove]

i do but i get nothing else beside on normal and heat 1

[tired karma]

Each new heat gives new blood

[steady dove]

it shows me that i gained them

just as on heat 1

same icons whit checkmarks till heat 52

maybe i have to beat the game first ?

all 12 runs or how manny u need

[manic kraken]

uh what

you should have new bounties for each weapon for heat 0-20

[steady dove]

i dont

[manic kraken]

Sounds like you did 0 and 1

but you should still have 2-20

[tired karma]

Do now 2

[manic kraken]

just do a 2 heat rub

run*

[steady dove]

maybe its a interface glitch but it shows me that i gained lvl 1 blood and lvl 2 diamond on each heat lvl after 1 till 52

[tired karma]

Or 1 on another weapon
Each weapon has it's own separate thing

[steady dove]

i did do all weapons on normal

and i gain most blood and diamond on heat 1 on all weapons

and when i put other heat lvls it shows the checkmark

let me go in game

[tired karma]

Just do 2 heat and see if it gives

[steady dove]

ill make a screenshot

alright ill try

I can't post pictures

I just maxed heat to 59 and it shows I gained the blood and diamond :))

I guess it's a interface thing

[tired karma]

U can post them here #h1-tech-support

[steady dove]

I did

[wicked swan]

you could just use rocket bomb to proc the buff and stay within melee range

your dash has iframes which should help avoid damage

[steady dove]

but id have to get the hammer for that , and i might not even get one early

[tired karma]

Building for clockets is the most annoying thing

[chrome heath]

I just had a weird idea: a Hades version/mod integrated with twitch that allows chat to sabotage the player/streamer mid-run.

Like temporarily or permanently increasing heat, summoning enemies, etc

[vital spade]

Is EM4 hades the true final boss or is there a harder boss

[chrome heath]

I'd say Charon, if only because of how soon you gotta face him

Easier patterns, hits like a truck

[tired karma]

I get bored with video games so easily these days, even with highly praised ones (rdr2, god of war, etc)

But hades manages to be addictive

[vital spade]

Try assault android cactus

It’s addictive like hades :3 and has insane post-game challenges to keep you hooked for hundreds of hours

Lots of the best games are indies

[wicked swan]

fr

[wicked swan]

same problem with me
did sekiro for just 100 hours and im burnt out

[chrome heath]

Meanwhile I'm 400 hours in and counting with Hades

They really Breaking Badded this game into a gem

[vital spade]

Most of the AAA games are all graphics and shallow gameplay

It’s not u it’s just good gayms r hard to find

[craggy wren]

P E R S O N A!!!!!

[tired karma]

The whole industry is rotten
A garbage game like last of us 2 had the most awards in history until elden ring

[craggy wren]

[steady dove]

Dose aspect of hestia work whit spreadfire hammer?

[tired karma]

How last of us 2 even won so many awards when it was widely hated on, lmao

Awards are corrupted

[steady dove]

Did u try dead cells?

If u like hades u might love that game too, I do at least

[tall trench]

Does swift flourish reduce the time in between using specials? I have rocket bomb

[chrome heath]

Game Awards are popularity based i think

[chrome heath]

Only the center arrow releases the cast

[vital spade]

Game awards caters to AAA popular games with high end graphics and casual gameplay that appeals to 9 year olds

Every year graphics get better but gameplay stagnates or gets dumbed down

F zero GX came out 20 years ago and still the best racing game

[chrome heath]

I miss wipeout

We getting off topic xD

[vital spade]

I like wipeout

I kinda wish sgg would make a twin stick shooter roguelike

[upper lynx]

going to fight hades himself now

*for the first time

I already know I am loosing

I have the boon that makes that red gem do lighting when it's not picked up

[fiery furnace]

Question regarding how early access saves worked on 1.0 launch: If you had beaten Hades, how did the plot progression for future runs work? Did the ending play out over 10 post-1.0 clears, or did it skip some of the scenes that you'd experience on a fresh save or what?

[vital spade]

Funny enough the third boss is harder tbh

Stay far away and use terrain for cover : )

[tall trench]

I've always avoided spreadfire on hestia because I remember reading it "didn't work" but never got an explanation as to in what way

I'm guessing only one of the shots fired by spread gets the first-shot bonus?

[steady dove]

same so i didint take it

i guess i missed out xd

[tall trench]

If it got the base damage increase it would still be an upgrade though yeah? Not sure

Not sure if the post-reload hestia shot has a higher base damage or is just regular shot with a percentage increase though

[chrome heath]

Ungodly dislexia on my part holy hell

[rustic vale]

Every shot other then the hesty shot is altered

Hesty shot is still regular hesty shot

So first shot is the usual sniper shot with 150 base damage and every shot after is the spreadfire shot with 40 base damage

[tall trench]

Yeah to me that's not a downgrade just like, sorta irrelevant since I'd rather be using the hesty shot ig?

[steady dove]

Then it's not worth it

Thanks for clarifying

[tall trench]

On the topic of rail hammers, does triple bomb interact with rocket bomb at all?

[rustic vale]

Yes

[tall trench]

So like, 3 rockets?

[rustic vale]

The same way cluster bomb and rocket bomb interact

Yes

[tall trench]

Cool, I guess that makes sense, thanks, just have learned not to assume with hammers lol

[rustic vale]

It’s pretty clear cut with how the special hammers affect your special for rail at least

The only thing the game doesn’t tell you for them is rocket bomb ignores cluster bombs damage nerf

[tall trench]

I got rocket already and am on an attack based build so just trying to way it against piercing fire, which is situational but also nice to have. 3 specials seem okay except probably a longer animation

[tall trench]

oh, this must be part of why clockets is so coveted, I actually haven't gotten that combo yet

[steady dove]

Ah btw regarding fishing, I saw u can fish on surface

And I got 2 fishes there

Is there more? Can I miss out on geting all the fish if I miss some catches there

I heard u can't go back once u beat the game

[vivid ice]

you can still get surface fish after beating the game

[steady dove]

Alright

[sharp thistle]

Sup guys how are y’all doing ?

[steady dove]

I'm doing bad :)) I tryed the weapons whit max blood and used all my blood on hestia and by mistakes dodge exited the room and progress saved, so now I gotta get used to play whit rebinded controller

I had 18 🙂

Back to farming

[tall trench]

How do you aim companions like shady? Meg seems pretty consistent, a line straight in front of you, but I've been using Shady to unlock codex and sometimes it lands on a nearby enemy, but other times will ignore any enemies and land behind, centered, or in front of zag and I have idea what the rhyme or reason is

[sharp thistle]

Play hestia with Than keepsake.

[steady dove]

His keepsake is the only one I got, I'll get dusa after next run and Meg sometimes soon

But I haven't maxed it yet, was hoarding a bit on resources

I always forget to use it tbh :))

[sharp thistle]

Just keep whooping her ass in tart and talk to her every time you can ( give her nectar and stuff also)

[sharp thistle]

Well just take some spindles in the well and you should be good

[tall trench]

I think you might have meant to reply cookie but in case not nah I have Meg I'm just using Shady on some runs because I am filling the codex up

just can't figure out how the aiming for it works it feels random where it lands

[steady dove]

I do know how to unlock them, I just don't have em yet

[steady dove]

Do u need to land kills whit it for codex? If not might as well just spam it and get entry upgrade if it's on use

[tall trench]

No don't need kills, but it would be nice lol

Both to be more effective now and to know how it works

[steady dove]

I don't even use mine I forgot the button :))

I remember on last boss and I can't even use it thrn

[proud lodge]

I forgot how very short those first fights with Meg can be.. I need a power up 😉

[vital spade]

Sometimes it can take annoyingly long

As a spear user lernie always flies by to me

Personally I think bosses 1 and 3 r most annoying

[wicked swan]

Imo alecto is the hardest sister

Meg and tis are super easy

[tired karma]

The throwdowns with meg are short both in tartarus and in house of hades

[carmine echo]

Question: How many of you beat the 32 heat challenge? And Why do you do this to yourself?

[tired karma]

Most of the active users here

[chrome heath]

Because skelly told me to

[tired karma]

Not unlocking the last statue felt lame and out of place

[sonic fulcrum]

After a point, it's good to have new challenge to keep playing the game, it's either heat or speedrun (or both), so doing 32 is a perfectly normal thing to try after a while

[chrome heath]

With every aspect

[carmine echo]

https://tenor.com/view/ouch-hurt-feelings-gif-14073109

I did the 16 and it was such a drag for me…I looked at the 32 and I just said No

[chrome heath]

You'll train your pain tolerance

Heat tolerance

[carmine echo]

I’m 31. I can’t

I don’t

[tired karma]

First 32 heat was hard and annoying (I jumped from 16 to 32 right away)
But now it's easy

Especially on arhur

My first was on zag rail

[chrome heath]

Oof

That one is a drag for me

Can't get its building right

[vital spade]

32 heat still seems baby lvl. I beat 20 heat then jumped immediately to 32 and beat it first try so it can’t be that hard. 63 tho

Honestly I hardly even feel like grinding that hard to beat that

I probably could beat the game with all the heats except tight deadline turned to max

[tired karma]

60 heat is like the max anyone managed to do

U can break a world record

[vital spade]

I’m sure someone has cleared 63 heat

[tired karma]

Actually someone did 64

[vital spade]

How much does tight deadline add overall

There’s a 64 heat? I thought it went to 63

[tired karma]

Baj

64 is max

[vital spade]

How do u get the last heat?

[sonic fulcrum]

hell mode

[vital spade]

[gray apex]

64 has only been done routed and 63 has only been done modded

[vital spade]

Ya I don’t wanna deal with having to mod the game just to have good enough rng to clear

Getting hit to me isn’t the issue but going fast enough with all the heats applied

[gray apex]

It'll be both eventually

[tired karma]

What is the record for unmodded

[gray apex]

62

[vital spade]

Do most ppl lose cuz tight deadline

Or from getting hit

[gray apex]

It depends on the heat, but could be a mix of both

[sonic fulcrum]

also, with tight deadline you have to take more risk sometime and get hit more

[vital spade]

I just imagine being on route to clear 63 heat but then u gotta purge ur boons that do damage and then u just die from too low dps

[tired karma]

Maybe u can abuse shackle and chaos boons

[gray apex]

You can't

[gray apex]

At that point you just reset, before even getting to the purging well

There is no point in playing it out at this much heat

You could have a perfect build and get totally rekt by the timer

This is mirrorless afterall

[vital spade]

Yeah

Just sounds more frustrating than fun

You need rng of the gods

Maybe hades 2 will find more clever end game challenges that don’t feel as much an rng wall at highest lvl

[brisk trail]

Hello my frends

[sonic fulcrum]

you can have end game challenge under heat 63 you know.... and you won't rely as much on rng. But for a game where rng is a thing, it's normal that it get mandatory when you push the limits

[vital spade]

Obvi

It’s a well designed game but that doesn’t mean it couldn’t be better designed too tho

I guess everything past 32 heat is kinda extra anyway in terms of game unlockable stuff

[sonic fulcrum]

well, i don't agree with that you think is a flaw in design: imo that design is fine, it's just not design with the idea that people should be doing 64 heat; and that's just an absurdly hard chalenge for people who always want more challenge.

so it's good to have something too hard that need rng for a thing like that

[vital spade]

🤷‍♂️

[tired karma]

Someone probably did it unmodded

Some chad who doesn't use discord

[vital spade]

Chinese player with 14k hours

[rustic vale]

583 days of playtime

[rustic vale]

Tbf that level of high heat is pretty far into the end game

[rich horizon]

my grandparents are coming to town and like seeing the video games I'm into, but I have all the prerequisites for the megthanzag scene and I don't want to run into that with them in the room 😭

[steady dove]

Lmao

Just do a new save

And Aphrodite shows up

[rich horizon]

you're gonna give me anxiety dreams /j

[sharp thistle]

Did some busted builds in #h1-victory-boasting go check them out.

[steady dove]

I'm just farming whit my rail to get more blood and the ending

I'm 5/0 streak whit it

[icy knoll]

if you don't know you're allowed to say no to them

[steady dove]

Hestia is so easy to play as long as u spam reload

U only need a hight % atk

[sharp thistle]

Yeah

[steady dove]

And that's it

Well I'm only heat 5 atm

[sharp thistle]

Good luck with your farming brother

[steady dove]

Thanks

I'm trying to get the ending and more blood

I want to max 1 of each aspects to farm more

This one's the easyest yet I haven't lost yet since unlocking it

[ivory swan]

First person shooter moment

[steady dove]

But remaping the controller is messing whit my muscle memmory

:))

[toxic trellis]

Doom: “Reloading? What’s that?”

[ivory swan]

What did you do? I'm curious

[steady dove]

I'm playing reloading simulator

[steady dove]

Reload on r1

So I can pres square and r1 button in same time for insta reload

[sharp thistle]

For the sword pick nemesis or Poseidon.

[steady dove]

So each time I press both I shot and reload on same time

[steady dove]

Yeh that's the only playable aspect for me, I hate the moveset and dash strike

[sharp thistle]

Nemesis is broken and Poseidon is more versatile. That Is why I maxed Poseidon aspect first.

[ivory swan]

Neato! I was tempted to map it on r2 , but wasn't sure about the "getting used to" period

[sharp thistle]

Try Poseidon with BIG Cast damage based build.

[steady dove]

I feel it's easyer to press it on triangle but it's messing whit my special, not that I have to use it, r1 seems more comfortable to my hand

[steady dove]

That's how I beat the game on sword

[sharp thistle]

You should it is verry useful

[steady dove]

Whit Poseidon cast too

[sharp thistle]

Yeah

[ivory swan]

Will surely test one of the r in the next run. Having to press down the joystick the reload is not that ideal

[sharp thistle]

Dionysus works verry well with tath too. Like you pick cast and attack , then try to get BlackOut.

[steady dove]

Feels like I'm gonna brake my hand and controller

It's either isntead of special or cast or a shoulder button for me

[ivory swan]

This tbh, especialy with the aspect

Kfdjcdbxzmd

[sharp thistle]

[ivory swan]

Gaius moment

[sharp thistle]

Yeah.

Ok guys hear me out.

[ivory swan]

👂

[sharp thistle]

Poseidon aspect + BlackOut + Mirage Shot = Busted.

It works really well with only BlackOut but with Mirage shot it’s one a whole other level.

[ivory swan]

Noted!

[vital spade]

Bouldy is hottest character in the game

✨

[steady dove]

I wish I had him

[sharp thistle]

Facts

My bouldy got some drip not gonna lie.

[vital spade]

He rely do

[steady dove]

So I just got the boat ride back, is this the end of the main story?

[vital spade]

Ye

[steady dove]

Oh feelsbad

Good riddance is still the best song

[vital spade]

Tho there’s still a crap ton of dialogue. But ye game is kinda disappointingly short

[steady dove]

Yeh its fun, lot of side chars to max friends and get more lore

I wish I had more and diferent dialogie talking and convincing mom to come back

[vital spade]

I wonder how many attempts it takes to even get all the dialogue

[steady dove]

Some was like, pretty lackluster

Idk, u can always spam die and go back to get dialogues

[vital spade]

Yeah some of the story bits feel like just padding the game lol. Like when u go into your fathers room and you just see capes. Wtf was that lol

[steady dove]

And moms dialogue, like why u decide to come back, suddenly, and when she was like I don't want to come back suddenly cuz she's scared now

I wish I had keep the free hades run and did the harder heat or his upgraded contract fight

[vital spade]

Idk. The story is good at keeping the player coming back for more but I wouldn’t say it’s particularly interesting lol

[steady dove]

I didn't even get my heart up whit chaos whit egg cuz he let me pass

Characters >main story

[vital spade]

True the characters r good. But some ppl talk how the story is really good but it kinda isn’t imo

[steady dove]

Yes, it's just there,gameplay and characters are nice

Well it's a roguelike, so it's story shouldn't be it's main point

[toxic trellis]

True!

[vital spade]

Bouldy is enough story for me

[toxic trellis]

Maybe a little too much

[high island]

There's an epilogue still.

[steady dove]

What's that

[high island]

Also, Hades story is phenomenal.

[steady dove]

That's a bit far fetched tbh, there's not even much of it, but glad u enjoy it, It serves it's purpose, anyway gameplay is the main thing of the game, and the characters have personality so that's another up

[high island]

There doesn't need to be "much" of a story for it to be great.

A good story knows when it should end.

[steady dove]

Yes, but there's like not much to it, the motives why she left olynpus could be explored more for example, the story is super simple as she tought her son died and she left to not cause a war, son finds out that his mom's somone else ( little exposition to how when you sleep first time), and he wants to find her, the dialogue between them don't give much lore and her coming back just cuz hades loves her cuz he got a picture whitout any convincing is a bit weack, but serves it's purpose,they where a few times when u talk to her when u learn nothing new like 2 or 3 escapes

I mean yes it's dose the job but no way it's phenomenal, at least for me, it's simple , could have a loot more to add to it but that's not the point of the game

[vital spade]

Don’t bother ppl don’t like the game criticized here lol

(I agree tho)

[high island]

the motives why she left olynpus could be explored more for example
The story of how and why she ended up in the Underworld has already been told plenty of times, you know.

[rich horizon]

imagine not having anxiety and controlling grandparents lmao they'll think I'm hiding things :/

[steady dove]

That's most fandoms

[vital spade]

The characters do outshine the story

[steady dove]

Btw what do you all focus the nectar on, maxing the characters or the companion thing they give u ?

I only have dusa and than atm

[vital spade]

Meg’s is the best one apparently

[steady dove]

I still didn't get her to have the dialogue whit me, maybe now that I'm done whit story it will be easyer

[void vigil]

i focused characters first and companions when i had enough ambrosia for all of them

[vital spade]

Funny I beat 32 heat and don’t have any companions

[steady dove]

I never use them cuz I forget but hey I gotta max all for completitionism sake

[high island]

You'll get them all eventually anyway, so just do what seems fun at the time. And if you don't play for long enough to max all of them, all the more reason to follow your heart while you do play.

[tired karma]

She played with me 5 times so far
One was with thanatos too though

[steady dove]

Yeh I'll play some more of it, like other roguelikes it's fun to do a few runs a day

[steady dove]

I'm romancing dusa now after than, I guess meg just dosent like me enought to progress the story

I wish I could romance Poseidon lmao

[tired karma]

It just takes time

[steady dove]

He's fun

[tired karma]

She plays hard to get

[steady dove]

Skely is best waifu anyway

[vital spade]

Everyone wants to be skely’s little boyo

aphrodite's face looks weird btw
it's like she's 60 years old

artemis on the other hand has a cute face

[vital spade]

Maybe it’s cuz I’m too blinded by bouldy’s beautiful curves but I just realized Aphrodite is nude

[tired karma]

and she walks around like that all the time in olympus

[brisk trail]

i mean

you gotta do what you gotta do

[tired karma]

I bet not many would cosplay as her to comic con

[vital spade]

Au contraire

What did Charon say when he saw aphrodite walking by?

[brisk trail]

arrrrrrrrrrrgh

probably

[tired karma]

"take my money"

or "wanna make some easy money together?"
he then set her up with an onlyfans account

[brisk trail]

or

hear me out

"kkkkkrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhn"

[willow wedge]

its because of the cheekbone line they put in for no reason

really makes her look bad

[high island]

Heretics.

[rich horizon]

ilove her design so much, I didn't realize until I was really far into the game that she wasn't in any clothes

[tired karma]

it's like "I am groot" language
zag just doesn't understand it
while hermes speaks it fluently

[tired karma]

yeah
it feels like she is some 60 year old on botox

if you remove that line her face looks much better

[willow wedge]

yeah agree

yall just down bad and cant see it

[vital spade]

Isn’t the point kind of to give her milf vibes

[tired karma]

they did the same with meg

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1036258237420412940/1062090087166386208/Hades_Screenshot_2022.12.30_-_00.01.51.78.png

also very weird lipstick colour choice

[tired karma]

she goes into the realm of gilf with that face
and she supposed to be the epitome of young beauty

[hardy spear]

wait so the grey skin, blue hair and orange eyes are fine but pink lipstick is where we draw the line

[vital spade]

Meg reminds me of Morrison from darkstalkers

She’s probably inspired by her

You know bat seductress and all

[tired karma]

it's just too bright and stands out from the rest of her design
it only matches some parts on her whip

[vital spade]

Looks right to me. It’s supposed to like kind of otherworldly/glowy I think

[tired karma]

dark purple or dark blue lipstick would fit way more

or dark orange

[vital spade]

Actually it’s coral blue number-

[tired karma]

but the worst problem is the cheekbone line
same with aphro

at least artemis doesn't have it

[calm wigeon]

it's very trendy for 2023 tho xD

[vital spade]

Theyre supposed to have sharp chiseled faces to make them look more seductive and less soft and ditzy

[tired karma]

remove that line and they both suddenly look way younger
it's funny how one line can ruin a face

[calm wigeon]

I think the cheekbones thing gives a 'high fashion' vibe tbh, I kinda dig it xD (but I'm biased, I used to work in fashion haha)

[vital spade]

It’s supposed to give kind of like Angelina Jolie in Beowulf vibe

[tired karma]

why would it be seductive, lol

[calm wigeon]

And all characters don't have to appear young 😮 I like seeing more mature or old women in games ^^

[vital spade]

Cuz it looks less childish and girlish and more like oddly intimidating

[tired karma]

google young angelina jolie face

I wouldn't call current one attractive

[calm wigeon]

Greeks used to have a very specific way to describe what is beauty too lol

[vital spade]

She looks like meg

[tired karma]

it makes no sense for aphro to look old when her entire thing is seduction, love and youthfulness
logically she would pick a young look

[tired karma]

I don't see any cheekbone lines

[calm wigeon]

Well btw at the beginning, in some early myths, Aphrodite used to have androgynous features sooo... 😋
