internal cooldown so multiple can't hit within the same time frame

orchid raft
#

I see

void vigil
#

It used to be pretty busted, much like chaos shield

orchid raft
#

That makes sense it would be op if i had less internal cooldown

void vigil
#

That moment when haelian makes a video about how chaos shield is op and then 3 years later or something, someone sees it and unlocks it to massive disappointment

latent moon
#

happened to me lmao

void vigil
#

Yeeeep

orchid raft
#

I never used Chaos shield really

#

So i wouldn't know

void vigil
#

The most important thing. Is to have fun :)

stiff obsidian
#

splash or zeus start?

latent moon
orchid raft
stone rune
latent moon
#

it was a lot stronger ofc but it wasn't like mind breaking i dont think

void vigil
#

It used to be extremely strong (max heat back then was beaten with chaos shield, routed)

orchid raft
#

I kinda want to stop playing RoR2 and go back to Hades for a bit

#

But i just got the SotV DLC for RoR2 so idk

void vigil
#

RoR isn’t going anywhere keikaku

latent moon
#

i mean neither is hades

void vigil
#

it’s true

orchid raft
#

Well... Here is the thing i just remembered I was going to do a lot of training on Hades like until Hades 2 drop but im waiting on a specific release date anouncement

void vigil
#

go with what your heart tells you

latent moon
#

hades 2 EA is dropping in q2 next year

orchid raft
#

So in theory i won't have time for any other game later

void vigil
#

I want to see something in TGA isee

orchid raft
orchid raft
#

i want it to win MAG award

latent moon
#

how long was hades 1 EA? like a year?

#

my guess is that hades 2 ea would be like june after finals and the start of summer

orchid raft
#

That's too long 😭

latent moon
#

lmao true

orchid raft
#

Im sooo gonna be there at the game awards to see who wins the MAG award

#

I don't remember the competition besides Hades 2 being in it

#

No im not gonna be there physically but on my phone

void vigil
#

Hades came out in december 2018 and was out of EA by September 2020

#

Inb4 4 years of EA because the game is way bigger than expected

brisk trail
#

coming in at exactly 576 dps (yes I calculated it) from the hangover alone, this thing shreds elysium arena and dad

#

also I forgot to meg

#

and it still destroyed him in under 1 and a half minutes

#

including the invincibility phases

#

anyone else gets framedrops sometimes on steamdeck ?

Never roiling

#

Yeah roiling sucks so much

#

If it isnt a speedrun attempt id 100% take it though

rose roost
#

wtf

#

just got 3 rat rooms in a row

#

where's the nyaana save state guide

#

can't find it

#

nvm found it

sturdy berry
#

quick question, to get the hidden aspects I need to invest 5 titan blood? I think i read that but idk it mightve only been for that specific weapon

rose roost
sturdy berry
#

thank you

inner drift
#

i played the game when hades was on the gamepass if i buy it now from steam will i lose all my progress??

knotty anchor
#

Yeah

#

I think

inner drift
#

I bought it and I have no progress do i need to anything??

rich onyx
#

how to use fated persuasion? the dice thing is always red and i can never roll it to get new boons…. how do i get the dice or whatever in order to roll my boons

mint coral
#

if no, have you leveled up persuasion?

#

otherwise you don't get the starting rolls

#

same if you are using routine inspection

rich onyx
mint coral
#

at least one level on it

rich onyx
#

no, just bought it

#

i see now

#

also whats routine inspection

mint coral
#

yeah that's it

#

uh have you escaped yet?

rich onyx
#

ive beaten two runs, one on no heat, one on 1 heat

#

im on 2 heat run now

mint coral
#

ah ok

#

routine inspection is one of the pacts

#

-3 mirror skills starting from the bottom (so persuasion, pride/legacy and favor/foresight)

#

2 heat per level

rich onyx
#

ohhh alright thanks

#

thanks for the help

mint coral
#

if you have fated keys from the work orders

rich onyx
#

how so

mint coral
#

you'll get a persuasion roll each time you pick a key

rich onyx
#

from the one dude near hades seat in the hub world?

mint coral
#

yeah

#

is one of the upgrades that cost diamonds

rich onyx
#

ah ok

#

diamonds are only unlocked from the heat runs right?

#

like by beating the bosses with different weapons on different heat

mint coral
#

yeah yeah

#

first time you beat a boss with a weapon you'll get the big bounties

#

furies and dad drop blood, hydra diamonds and heroes ambrosia

rich onyx
#

also last question, ive had so much dialoue with achilles

#

yet i still havent gotten the hidden aspect of guan yu or whatever

#

for the spear

mint coral
#

if you have everything is legit just keep talking lol

rich onyx
#

okok thanks

mint coral
#

though as a tip, advancing the main story will probably delay the gy dialogue further

#

as those are prioritized

rich onyx
#

aw ok

#

thanks

stuck arch
#

whats the max bonus i can get on darkness and gems?

#

cause i think i just hit it

#

or close

#

i have +365%

rain edge
stuck arch
#

so i wanted to max the egg so i went with that

#

then i got epic +130

#

then 3-4 after chambers i got 155 with a different debuff

#

the 20 i got from the weapon

#

and then the boon from poseidon epic

drowsy linden
# stuck arch whats the max bonus i can get on darkness and gems?

thatd be pretty hard to calculate, since youd have to find:
max buff from epic abyssal
frequency of normal chaos gates
max number of possible non styx, miniboss, boss, erebus, or "free" chambers
max number of key chambers possible before ely endshop
any other bs that might appear, like no mystery and light at the same time

stuck arch
#

i got atleast 1000 gems and darkness in this run

#

hella lucky

#

plus i got 2 sunken treasures

drowsy linden
#

shady when

latent moon
#

technically speaking there isn't a max bonus you can get

#

it's just like

#

how likely are you to get eclipse boons from chaos lmao

drowsy linden
#

there is a max bonus, im just too lazy to find it

#

and its pretty much never gonna be used because rng

rose bane
#

how do i complete the dusa quest i already did the lounge renovations but it says the quests is not complete

plucky storm
#

she can take a bit sometimes just do runs and eventually it'll get completed

#

it took me like 9-10 runs after i completed the criteria to actually get it to unlock

#

i thinkkkk than and meg might have to be at the house? but i could be thinking of smth else

upper wolf
#

my skill at the furies fight is shameful lol

#

I usually just panic and starts mashing buttons

#

Which, surprisingly, is not a very effective tactic.

last veldt
#

You'll get better as you learn their patterns. If you aren't running tight deadline, just spend a few minutes just trying to take as little damage as possible and watch their behaviour (except Alecto maybe since she'll get angrier based on a timer).

upper wolf
#

I'm on TD3, because I love pain

#

Also on a cursed maxed pact except the ones I find annoying

#

because optimizing heat is cringe, and I'm based, so I'm optimizing having fun

#

(ie dying like an idiot)

#

tbh I'm this close to try to find a mod to force athena in tartarus since I'm running a ME build

'''''just'''

formal orbit
#

welp, timothy is also cracked as hell

upper wolf
#

I'm not the biggest fan of zeus shield tbh

formal orbit
#

fist can also run this pact, much harder to do tbh

upper wolf
#

Help I'm cooking too much

#

I'm trying some zagsword worldsplitter shmonbo

#

difficult to change my muscle memory for the rotation from "dashstrike-dashstrike-special/cast" to "dashstrike-attack-dashstrike-attack"

mint coral
#

Zeus^2 gaming

#

Ouch peer pressure and dio aid + attack

formal orbit
#

The lack of jolted is ron

mint coral
#

Splitting putting in work

formal orbit
#

And dio attack with call

#

But that’s a lot of boon for olympian favor

#

I smell trial somewhere in there

mint coral
#

Lmao I didn't see that

orchid rose
#

Honestly, I was flabbergasted to see so much in one run

formal orbit
#

It was pretty jacked in term of boons but I have ptsd with splitting bolt zeus lmao

#

Not my vod, but you can see the block is bugged with splitting bolt

orchid rose
#

Splitting bolt is the zeus boon that does extra lightning to the shield when launched ? (switch to EN for the screen xD)

orchid rose
formal orbit
#

I will take it on every aspect other than zeus

orchid rose
#

I mean it does dmg right ? Anyway I never had it so had no choice to pick it

formal orbit
#

Well yeah but it changes drastically how I play the dad fight

#

So no thank

#

I will still take it on my chill runs tho

#

Since splitting bolt is ~~ one of~~ the best legendary in the game

orchid rose
#

But does it forces you to change playstyle ? Or do you just do more dmg by adapting your playstyle ? Had so much going on don't really remember what it does

formal orbit
#

It adds a small lightning orb on top of every lightning bolt

#

On aspect that use lightning effect well such as rail, spear and fist, the damage boost is insane

#

Since every attack proc splitting bolt

#

Zeus also enjoy that damage boost but the bug makes it very dangerous for dad fight, even em3 asterius to some degree

#

Playing zeus without the block is a get gud moment

orchid rose
#

Honestly I don't always block, feel like it's boring and not so fun

#

So I'd rather fight up and take some risks most of the time

#

Except for like the whole elyseum part

mint coral
#

I don't go full block cus I've seen one too many clips of it being reliable lmao

#

I'll still abuse the rush to world's end though

formal orbit
#

Welp, I played too much zeus to know the stuff it can’t block

#

With splitting bolt, you just kill him faster so maybe it’s safer thanthink

mint coral
#

Tbh yeah that's my feeling about splitting lol

#

Bug too rare to pass the dmg

gray apex
#

Quite the chaos you got there

mint coral
#

Unless is like super high heat where you really don't wanna gamble it

orchid rose
brisk trail
#

imagine crucible from doom as a sword aspect

#

that would be very cool

#

and probably one of the only video game references that is acceptable

wary iron
#

starfield rail gun

mint coral
#

Just put the transistor as another sword aspect

upper wolf
#

The Kid's hammer as hidden aspect in hades 2 would be hype

#

I feel like an axe and a hammer are two weapons that make a lot of sense for melinoe

#

Well, mostly because they're common fantasy weapons and didn't appear in Hades 1

wary iron
#

That’d give us a hammer and sickle, nice

mint coral

Calamity cannon aspect of the rail

Hello there. Can someone explain to me how dash-strike works with the Coronauht? In particular, how hunter dash from Artemis works with it. From the description it should increase the damage by 50% (no levels, white rarity), yet I just cannot find a way how to get arrows that do more damage than normal attack.

wary iron
#

Dash and immediately hold the attack button, if you press it once nothing happens, if you wait too long the percentage isn’t added

mossy hedge
#

Yes, that is how I get charged shot charge faster. Still I just don't see any improvements on damage part. Even more - it almost like it slightly less powerful even. In my current run, if I charge shot (no boons on attack, twin shot hammer) I do 128 or 130 damage to the unarmored wretched thug. If I dash - I acharge power shot faster, but it always do 128 damage, never 130 even. That is clearly not an increase from dash attack. Or power shot after dash is not considered dash-attack and to get the benefits from Arthemis boon I have to shoot as fast as possible after I dashed?

stone rune
#

it's still better to do

#

because they come out faster

stone rune
#

they mean the power shot buff i assume

#

if you're not power shotting on a bow your attack will not do damage

wary iron
stone rune
#

oh that kind of wait

mint coral
#

hunter's dash buff?

stone rune
#

i thought you meant waiting during the charge

mint coral
#

oh that

stone rune
#

but i assume they mean waiting between dash and pressing attack

mint coral
#

low reading skills moment

stone rune
#

no i did the same

#

it wasnt well explained

#

but we got there in the end

wary iron
#

Terrible writing moment

#

dude the game looks so wrong in 16:9

#

why is everything so fast vertically

orchid rose
#

I think you mean 21:9

stone rune
#

?

orchid rose
#

Widescreen are in 21:9

orchid rose
#

Looks 16:9 to me

#

But yeah first vid looks really weird

stone rune
#

the first vid was mine

#

the second vid looks weird to me

orchid rose
#

On what screen do you play ?

#

I'm guessing you play on widescreen 21:9 and looking at some other videos in 16: different than your 21:9 looks weird cuz you are used to your settings

i wanna know what do i do with the titan bloods

#

what do each of them do

void vigil

you’ll find out if you just keep playing the game but if you really need to know ||they unlock weapon aspects and upgrade them||

Have u guys played death must die?

Just heard about it

how do i finish tartarus with the bow

#

my aim is kinda bad

#

probably because im using keyboard to play it

last veldt
#

I've never used keyboard/mouse to play, but I think there's an option for aim assist?

On console there's aim assist on all the time as I understand it.

You'll prob won't have the darkness to upgrade anything yet anyways

summer yarrow
#

aight thanks a lot

mint coral
#

What's the last mirror skill you have rn

summer yarrow
#

trying to collect 500 for the third chance skill

mint coral
#

Wait do you only have like the first 3 skills unlocked

summer yarrow
#

backstab, revive, double dash

#

yeah

mint coral
#

Def get to unlocking more of the mirror after the gun lol

summer yarrow
#

hmm

mint coral
#

I think the hp increase is the 20 keys one?

summer yarrow
#

does giving more nectar do anything?

summer yarrow
mint coral
#

I mean you could do it without that but it def helps

mint coral
#

Gameplay wise only a few will give you something else at some point

summer yarrow
#

other than the bonus on the start

mint coral
#

Others simply advance their story

summer yarrow
#

thanks

#

gonna use it later on athena

Heya, a couple questions here for someone more knowledgeable than me:

  1. I believe that I remember that sometimes when I defeat enemies they drop coins, but I am not sure that it happened. And if it does - does it also applies to additional enemies from Jury Summon?
  2. What is a good aspects for a clear with Approval Process? I understand that it can be done with anything, but I am struggling and want some easier time. And I am not really interested in advices for boons, universal or not - I want to figure that out myself.
mint coral
#

Or not even one and just the shackle keepsake lol

mossy hedge
#

Oh, Hestia is one of my least favorite, at least mechanically. I just cannot keep up the rhythm for the whole run and when I fail to do it properly damage just dive and it become really tedious. But thanks for advice anyway.

mint coral
#

Do you have hidden bow?

#

Zag bow may want at least one of the good hammers to feel good but shouldn't be an issue

mossy hedge
#

I have all aspects available, but a few hidden ones are still waiting for titan blood to be unlocked

mint coral
#

As you said ap1 alone can be done with pretty much abything

mossy hedge
#

Also only a few aspects fully leveled, but that I can manage

mint coral
#

Zeus shield also works

mossy hedge
#

Oh, yes, that one should do nicely, thanks!

#

But what is the room gold cap? I never heard of it before

#

Well, I get the concept, but what is the number?

mint coral
#

Idk dusa

#

Let me see if the speedcord has it

mint coral
#

And survival rooms always have 60 gold cap

mossy hedge
#

I see, thanks. Not a lot, but I understand why.

i dont like the ||bull ||😠

Tho the bulll is friendly, theseus is the assh*le

#

Theseus makes me laugh

Elysium keeps killing my runs xD

orchid rose
#

Honestly only tartarus feels fair xD

autumn rose
#

Blowing up theseus's chariot then hearing him say NOoOoOooOOOo is the best thing ever

nimble wren
#

Oh, extreme measures. Does it unlock a new dialogue pool? Because after the first time I used it and won, the next time I went without it, Theseus was a bit insecure, before returning normal

coral kite
#

Rq I made a drawing of Theseus and asterius I posted it in fan works. people reacted with an ox/bull makes sense. But they also reacted with an onion

#

What does the onion mean

rose roost
#

dunno what it means in the channel, but u get an onion when u fail erebus

coral kite
mint coral
#

Is a fun side story though

nimble wren
#

Yea hahahahaha. Also, did it unlock a new combined attack for them too? On screen happenes a lot of stuff, so I could not understad if I made it up

mint coral
#

After the arc is done they get a new move yeah

#

Asterius will run into Theseus's shield and cause a shockwave

Aphro is consistency and artemis can get better with chaos boons/twin or triple shot

#

As in why would you take zeus

I guess??

But really, top dmg is gonna be arte or aphro

Is it known what percentage of hades players have achieved 32 heat clears?

wary iron
#

No, I don’t think so, but there is one for 16 heat for every platform

i'd say that like at least half of the ones who beat 16 has beaten 32

i feel like if they've beaten 16 then they're dedicated enough to keep playing more lmao

you can skip the minos fight itself? i ended up at the boss of elysium without doing minos

Minos fight is one of several potential minibosses

For those two: kill the bull first because it's easier to deal with theseus without him around. Use the pillars to avoid the spear, which you can see through a small targeting reticle over zag

sometimes you get multiplying fast witches and you're dead

i feel like popper, cloner, and spewer are locked to specific biomes

yeah they are

#

mayyybe cloner can happen after tart, I'm not too sure

#

... I've been mostly stuck in tart lately zaglol

#

i think cloner is exclusive to tartarus

sour fog
#

when you get the room with numbskulls that give each other damage control

#

that's annoying af

upper wolf
#

I feel like cloner is really badly balanced

#

sometimes you have slow enemies spawning at the other side of the room that are not even an inconvenience

#

Ohhh right

#

At what point the game gets hard ? I'm mean I'm kinda tryharding the game but haven't really felt overwhelmed yet

mint coral
#

turn up the heat

#

is there so you can choose your own difficulty

orchid rose
#

Yeah, did it at like 1 or 2 to get ressources

#

Just won a 8 heat and felt fine, ofc if I go at 50 rn I'm gonna struggle so freakin much but at what heat game start to get more serious to you ?

mint coral
#

honestly depends a lot by person

#

I've seen so many people not even touching the pact

#

but also depends on what pacts you take

#

20 heat with like ri4 em4 td3 and idk can be as hard as "standard" 50

orchid rose
#

It's weird for once I feel like I'm like really good at a game

mint coral
#

and that's the other thing, heat snowballs hard with the difficulty

orchid rose
mint coral
orchid rose
#

Do you get any benefits from heat btw ? i think I'm supposed to but have no idea x)

mint coral
#

so you know how killing bosses for the first time drops the unique items?

orchid rose
#

Yep

mint coral
#

after clearing with a weapon you can use heat to reset the bounties

#

so you can get them again

orchid rose
#

Wait

#

If you go from 0 heat to 63 instantly, are you doomed ?

mint coral
#

nah

#

bounties are given based on the lowest available

#

so if you have no heat clears and somehow cleared that it would give the bounties for 1 heat

#

then if you do it again it'll give for 2 heat and so on

#

they also cap at 20 heat

#

25 on hell mode

orchid rose
#

Oh great

#

Good design

mint coral
#

as a note

#

you can "skip" 0 heat

#

normally you need to beat your current heat but you can just move on from 0 even if you didn't get all the bounties

#

if that happens the gauge should tell you that you are missing those so you can't miss it

orchid rose
#

If you haven't finished a 0 heat run with a weapon the game doesn't let you start with heat ?

#

I don't get it

mint coral
#

the opposite

#

climbing heat needs you to beat your current one
so to get bounties for 2 heat you need heat 1 done

orchid rose
#

Yeah you can always 'finish' 0 heat later

mint coral
#

idk exactly why it lets you do that anyways

orchid rose
#

Good to know that trying to go for max heat now is kinda dumb

mint coral
#

only like 2 people have beaten 64 heat

#

(hell mode adds an extra pact btw)

orchid rose
#

Yeah I've been looking some videos last few days

#

mint coral
#

yup

Only 2 yeah but we can technically say 3 tbh lmao

#

can't forget baj gaming

latent moon
#

Oh I was counting mysterra

orchid rose
#

Wait I saw that angelic did but others did too ? Unseeded I mean

latent moon
#

Bai did unseeded yes

#

Mysterra just doesn't feel like doing reset simulator for a week to do it

mint coral
#

I'll let bananas answer cuz I haven't checked speedcord in a while lmao

latent moon
#

Baj did routed

#

Mysterra just doesn't feel like trying for unmodded unseeded lmao

#

But they used the 99 heat mod and beat 82

mint coral
#

tbf who would lmao

latent moon
#

So like we can technically lump in mysterra for 64 on a technicality imo lmao

#

Baj did routed 64 so like technically unmodded but it's not like it's that much easier lmao

mint coral
#

Baj video is still good for the "even if perfect luck you still need so much skill"

latent moon
#

Yea

mint coral
#

I also remember someone's comment on one of Haelian's video

latent moon
#

Bai did it legit in a week tho so you can check out his run

orchid rose
mint coral
#

"we need 100 people so you can get the run quick"
then haelian is just like

#

"yeah but only one can actually beat it"

orchid rose
#

Show me some guy killing charon at 64 heat without stuff and I'll be impressed xD

latent moon
#

I mean the issue with fighting Charon for them isn't like difficulty

#

It's time

#

It's unlikely they'll actually finish the run in the end lmao

mint coral
#

most things don't even affect charon

orchid rose
#

Do you just straight up die after timer is out ?

mint coral
#

5 dmg per second

orchid rose
#

Don't know how many phases got charon (and don't wanna know), but I encountered him for the first time and early pattern seems easy tbh

mint coral
#

charon patterns are chill

latent moon
#

Time is so tight in the run that you generally end with like 30 seconds left if you're lucky lol

orchid rose
#

Just that I was room 6 and each hit one shoted me lmaoooo

mint coral
#

but just like heightened security have fun when you do mistakes

mint coral
orchid rose
#

Like why tf can you battle him so early ?

mint coral
#

risk vs reward mostly

latent moon
#

Because you'll get more value out of the reward later

mint coral
#

no much use of the gold + the other item in like ely

orchid rose
#

Kinda hate playing any games with timer

latent moon
#

It's more worth it to fight him earlier than later

orchid rose
#

Atleast there's no timed event in the game (except heat ofc)

mint coral
#

hades timer is chill after some practice

#

I've fought charon often in 32 heat

#

yes I leave with like 30 seconds but whatever, funny

latent moon
#

I got 5 sacked at 40 heat and still won with a couple mins left iirc lmao

orchid rose
#

Yeah I'm guessing it gives you the discount thing I saw in steam achievements
Really thought I just had to pay 300 to get a discount on the whole run

#

Got tped and was like oh no

mint coral
#

you didn't see the "borrow"?

orchid rose
#

I kinda knew that you can fight charon in the game but thought it was after hades fight when you have 10+ wins

mint coral
#

we still need em5 to have buffed charon fight

#

or tony

orchid rose
#

Btw lot of things have been changed since release ?

#

Like regular balancing patches ?

mint coral
#

do you mean from early access or from 1.0.0

orchid rose
#

Both

mint coral
#

I mainly know the funny ones from ea but from 1.0 not much really

#

maybe a few bugs but the main change was eris buff from 8 seconds to 4 and sigil of the dead now being 2 bars instead of 4

#

and most bugs that we have now were discovered after they were done with the game

orchid rose
#

Great to know that I didn't miss some stupidly funny patch with broken strats

mint coral
#

artemis used to have lot of boons that are now hermes'

#

and mirage shot was a common boon of hers before

summary of my latest runs

also damn I didn't expect the asphodel erebus to have 500000 gorgon heads with AK 47

formal orbit

the most annoying enemies progression of mine is flamewheel -> greatshield -> brightsword -> longbow -> gorgon -> drakon->wavemaker -> witch

#

funny how the more you play, the more annoying tartarus become

#

chariot deserved a special place in hell because it's always annoying regardless of how much you play

coral kite

#

Theseus was annoying cuz he blocks so I had to wait till he threw his spear to damage him

#

After that I died hard lost all my 2 death defiance

#

In that fight

#

😭

coral kite
#

After a while you get better at just attacking him from behind

upper wolf
#

yeah you don't have to wait, just get behind him

#

That does leave the risk of getting skewered by his attacks, but what can you do

mint coral
#

You can bait him into spamming the spin attack too

stiff obsidian
#

Yeah and that when you can hit him with the ares call

long tree
#

Ah I will try that next time

upper wolf

Shame her minor call isn't the best for regular encounters

upper wolf

I still need to do a Eris zeus attack + support fire call build where I somehow manage to get great call in normal encounters

mint coral
#

Yeah cuz they are the only place where you'll get a full call dusa

autumn rose
#

Her full call isn't great for normal encounters cus they don't have very much health either bouldy

wary iron
#

Another version of overkill

stiff obsidian
#

Since it's multiple arrows they go over to another enemy if the one targetted is dead

autumn rose
#

Yeah but

#

Still pretty bad

#

If u get it max at all for normal encounters there won't be very many ads left anyways

#

Probably not making use of a lot of the dmg from her max call

#

Just using zeus or dio minor calls for example throughout that kinda encounter is just better methinks

formal orbit
#

not really, arty full call is still great in normal chamber

#

not dio or zeus level of great but still legit

#

if the targeted enemy is killed, it will find the next one

The thing is how rare is to get full call in normal encounters

When will Poseidon give me the mission Sea-God's Spite? I gave him 6 nectars already. Is there some kind of secret pre-requisite?

is prob just dialogue rng

if you want to unlock his favor you don't need to do that prophecy fwiw

nimble wren
#

I could've guess, I just wanted the mission hahahaha. I will finish to max the reaming keepsakes, and then go out only with Poseidon's keepsake

#

Also, it's just my imagination, or Teseus' 2nd phase has a lower defense?

mint coral

during his entire god call he doesn't hold the shield if that's what you mean

No, I meant, does he get more damage?

random bug ig

jagged shoal
#

Cool detail I think!

jagged shoal
#

Hey guys, does having multiple of a group of boon requirements up your chances of getting said boon or is your chance maxxed out as soon as you fill the condition at all?

#

Say I want Killing Freeze, and I have say Frost Flourish, would getting say Mistral Dash up my chances of recieving Killing Freeze in a later roll, or keep them the exact same?

drowsy linden
#

so like you dont have mistral dash taking up a slot

jagged shoal
#

Ahhhh clever actually

#

So if I'm understanding, Killing Freeze will always have an equal chance as everything else to appear once it's in the pool regardless of how many requirements are met, but taking any boons out of the pool technically raises the chances of the rest

#

(My addendum question would be when you wash away a boon does that boon re-enter the possible offerings?)

brisk trail
#

can I have a easy and good chiron build

drowsy linden

sadly chiron is just bad

#

dire misfortune is a meme

formal orbit

Dire misfortune can clear 60 theoretically with Rama bouldy

hello

#

can you tell me again whvvydemtter is the worst god ?

stone rune
#

well like

#

demeter can be widely applicable

#

she just has no good builds centered around her cores

last veldt
latent moon
#

her only niche is supporting boons

#

nourished soul is great for an unpommable and casual runs in general (sucks at high heat with UC and lc4)
ravenous will and snow burst are great on cast builds

obsidian linden
#

Stop, she's already dead

stone rune
#

man

obsidian linden
#

XD

stone rune
#

every time i try hera im amazed people enjoy playing this

latent moon
# jagged shoal So if I'm understanding, Killing Freeze will always have an equal chance as ever...

technically yes, although some stuff works differently
priority boons (attack, special, cast, and dash) are always offered if all of them aren't full. so if you don't have a cast and special, you will always be offered at least one of those whenever you pick up a boon. you might also get a replace so that's inconvenient sometimes
duos are also a higher priority, so that might get offered to you as well

obsidian linden
#

And just to be sure, how BAD is our god of wines?

latent moon
latent moon
#

consistent stuff generally have lower dps but you wont have to worry about your build sucking

#

his call is very good tho

#

just be wary of overwriting hangover and you're fine

formal orbit
#

Imagine dissing on Dionysus when Poseidon exist

latent moon
#

if you want to center your build on hangover, you need to pom your hangover source as much as possible since it's linear pom scaling

#

and get one of the hangover duos

#

but if you dont get one of the duos, then it's fine

#

duos not including splitting headache

#

his duos aren't great iirc, but some of the are good

#

ice wine is always good

upper wolf
#

Dio is great

latent moon
#

scintillating feast isn't too bad, helps get more jolted procs and whatnot

#

you dont really ever aim for exclusive access but when you do get it it's pretty neat

#

i think the rest of them are bad tho lmao

upper wolf
#

second best call, great duos, strong drink, that one nectar boon, and I've been liking the damage reduction too

obsidian linden
#

Didn't know there is some linear pom scaling!

latent moon
#

do you want like 0.3 hangover increases lol

upper wolf
#

IRL, yes

latent moon
#

lmao fair enough

#

oh yeah he has a ton of unpommables and most of them sell for UC as well so that's great

obsidian linden
#

Well, I guess critical everything is the same thing with pom

latent moon
#

yeah that too

#

bronze skin has linear pom scaling as well iirc

obsidian linden
#

!!!

latent moon
#

to be clear that doesn't make it much better lmao

obsidian linden
#

Insanely worth

latent moon
#

it's 1% increases starting at like 4 poms lmao

obsidian linden
#

Wait what

latent moon
#

maybe earlier

formal orbit
#

I think PP, support fire also has linear scaling

#

Maybe chain lightning

latent moon
#

nvm straight linear

#

still ass tho

#

yeah some stuff has linear pom scaling but the only worthwhile one is hangover

#

pressure points is second but the gap between those two is like massive in terms of value lmao

obsidian linden
#

10 to 15% reduction is ass for you?

latent moon
#

tbh yeah

#

10% vs 15% is like 1 damage difference lmao

#

true

Trap damage doesn’t get reduced by bronze skin

#

I don’t think beo speedrun enjoy dio that much

Just for the non pomable

yeah dio is good for unpommables

Can I say that I don't like call

you can buy more than zagsword movespeed bonus for 10 dollars

just sub-10 is enough for me

stone rune
#

well sub10 is free if u have a decent build

#

and half competent play and rng

#

if its a 2sack its probably sub10able

brisk trail
#

also in that run

stone rune
#

just gotta practice ur play a little

brisk trail
#

my unlucky ass got 3sack

stone rune
#

well that run has no impending

so its gonna suck

and I gone for some ehh boons because some prophecies are really close

#

and I took them

#

is ME a good build

#

ME nem

#

"avoid flurry slash" (me: takes flurry slash)

latent moon
#

and for zag sword, it's only good if it's at least rare rush delivery

#

the video should be a good basis to get you sub10

brisk trail
#

ty

latent moon
#

every aspect can sub10 pretty easily as long as you have basic speedrunning fundamentals

#

just aspect practice and enough luck should get you 1 sub10 run

brisk trail
#

before I move on, I want epilogue, deathly theme, sub10, and 32 heat

latent moon
#

all that should be easy enough

#

epilogue just takes a lot of time

#

idr which one deathly theme is but shouldn't take that long

brisk trail
#

I have already completed 69 (yes, that's actually true), successful runs, all keepsakes, 1.8k gems

#

and my highest heat so far is 17

latent moon
#

ah

#

doable

brisk trail
#

yeah

latent moon
#

a bit pain but doable

brisk trail
latent moon
brisk trail
#

vanquisher's keep income should be enough

#

and occasionally sell off a titan's blood for 200 gems, which is the worst deal ever but hey

brisk trail
#

are those good goals to set

#

before I move on to other games

latent moon
#

yeah all that is pretty reasonable

brisk trail
#

anything I'm missing

latent moon
#

sub10 and 32 heat can be challenging but not impossible

brisk trail
#

I already voided all 3 contracts, nyx's favor, and unlocked themes

latent moon
#

sub10 doesn't give you any rewards but 32 heat does lmao

#

maxing everyone's bonds i guess

brisk trail
#

I have arte bond for some reason

latent moon
#

i mean the epilogue gets you most of the way there tbh

brisk trail
#

prolly because I don't know bonds work back then

#

I was like: oh wait I can gift again

latent moon
#

voiding the contracts should already max bonds or at least make it close

brisk trail
#

the other 3 I don't have

#

also is gifting bouldy worth it for speedruns

stone rune
#

its not like ur losing time

latent moon
#

yeah you just might as well

#

there's no reason not to

brisk trail
#

I am not very rich in nectar

#

only 9

latent moon
#

then save it

brisk trail
#

which is somehow less than the 10 ambrosia I have

latent moon
#

bouldy bonus generally isn't like run defining unless it's movement speed and you get hyper delivery

brisk trail
#

also should I just gift it to the olympians so epilogue is running in the background

brisk trail
#

and you have hypersprint

latent moon
#

yeah might as well

brisk trail
#

and bouldy bonuses, and zag sword, and heroic +50% move speed

latent moon
#

gifting gods in speedrun might lose you some time but since you can only gift like 4 gods in a run mostly, it's pretty marginal time loss and wont matter for a sub10

brisk trail
#

and ichor

latent moon
#

i mean if you get all that then the problem is that you're using zag sword lmfao

brisk trail
latent moon
#

doesnt matter tbh

#

whatever you want

#

like i said, the timeloss is pretty negligible

brisk trail
latent moon
#

for sub10, if that time loss really does matter then that's kinda sad lmao

#

i mean sure

#

it's pretty doable

#

if you're skilled enough lmao

brisk trail
#

really?

brisk trail
latent moon
#

actually might be difficult

brisk trail
#

there's the catch

latent moon
#

it's like

brisk trail
latent moon
#

equivalent to 40 heat

brisk trail
#

what's your 32 heat best time

latent moon
#

i haven't done it unmodded iirc but i reckon i can

latent moon
#

i've only done 32 heat speed once

#

modded

#

but i did do it 40 heat modded lmao

#

i got sub8 iirc

brisk trail
#

does rng matter for 32 heat or sub10

latent moon
#

tbh not that much

brisk trail
#

because it doesn't for 0 heat

#

dying is not real on 0heat

latent moon
#

like yeah stuff needs to go your way ofc

#

but it's not like "i didn't sub10 because i didn't get the duo in tartarus"

brisk trail
#

also, any tips for 32 heat

latent moon
#

free rooms are always nice ofc but doable to sub10 without it

latent moon
brisk trail
#

because I sure as heck aint clearing the game in under 20 mins with zeus shield

latent moon
#

i have a guide pinned there on top

brisk trail
#

idk about td3

latent moon
#

i mean practice

#

what's your current time

#

or like pb with zeus shield

#

if you're at 15 mins you're good

brisk trail
#

wait

#

17:47

latent moon
#

doable tbh

brisk trail
#

not good

latent moon
#

are you doing zeus^2?

brisk trail
#

yeah

#

wait

#

no

#

for that run I'm going dio spec with 3 duos (arte, ares, aphro)

latent moon
#

yeah that's the problem

brisk trail
#

nono

#

zeus² is even slower

#

that's the real problem

latent moon
#

it's literally not lmao

#

in fact it's much more consistent than getting 3 duos

brisk trail
#

pretty sure my zeus² pb is 17:5x

brisk trail
latent moon
#

zeus^2 works fine

#

32 heat should be pretty easy

#

for zeus^2 at least

brisk trail
latent moon
#

zeus^2 works fine

brisk trail
#

okay?

latent moon
#

probably like 2nd best aspect for it since it's a shield

#

actually nvm

#

beo and hestia exist so like 3rd best

brisk trail
latent moon
#

but it's hella strong

#

beo is better until 55 heat

brisk trail
latent moon
#

hestia is better until like probably idk 45 in terms of ease of use

brisk trail
#

I once got a 18:4x with beo flood flare arte-pos duo

latent moon
#

zeus is def stronger but if you dont know how to use it that well then hestia is a walk in the park compared to zeus

brisk trail
#

and also did not max hestia

latent moon
#

beo should be an easy sub10 and 32 heat

latent moon
#

repeat

#

special every now and then

#

hit reload and dash/special at the same time to cancel the animation

brisk trail
#

wait what's the best boon for hestia again?

#

big aphro atk?

latent moon
#

yeah

#

for 32 heat it'd be pretty easy

brisk trail
#

yeah, expected that

latent moon
#

beo, zeus, and hestia are probably the easiest for 32 heat

#

or like anything you're most comfortable with

brisk trail
latent moon
#

then use it

brisk trail
#

I can reliably be nigh invincible by shield turning

#

I once stood in the middle of a timed section, holding up the shield and cleared it hitless

latent moon
#

sounds about right

stiff obsidian
#

I am of the opinion zagshield is the best sheild

latent moon
#

assuming you get good hammers

stiff obsidian
#

I am of the opinion modded is the best gamemode

latent moon
#

true

brisk trail
#

cast shadedisgruntled

latent moon
#

cast builds are quite literally some of the strongest builds in the game lmao

#

hera, achiles, and beo will all easily get you sub10

#

beo will easily get you 32 heat

brisk trail
#

i uhh, still am not accustomed to a cast build

#

I usually use the cast for boiling blood only

latent moon
#

that's because you play kbm

brisk trail
#

beowulf feels so unsafe tbh

#

like, for a shield at least

latent moon
brisk trail
#

unsafe for a shield

latent moon
#

technically speaking beo does have iframe bugs but also like it kinda just nukes everything

brisk trail
#

it's slow to start the bull rush, and you play by dashing into the enemies

latent moon
#

dash strike into the dragon rush

brisk trail
latent moon
#

mirage shot alone should 2 stone ely enemies

#

you dont need chaos for a sub10 afaik

brisk trail
#

because flood flare knocks stuff away just enough to only hit once or twice on all enemies

latent moon
#

flood flare has miniscule knockback

#

doesnt even proc sea storm

brisk trail
latent moon
#

you dont need chaos for 32 heat either

brisk trail
latent moon
#

because mirage shot is bugged on it

brisk trail
#

what's the biggest area for beo flare
