#

aspodel is the worse

#

the easiest is tartarus and than elysuim and styx (not countinghades)

limpid ocean
#

Asphodel is easier than tartarus

shadow heart
#

why

limpid ocean
#

Well for starters it's 50% shorter

shadow heart
#

that kinda makes it harder but ok

#

can someone who played Hades 1 early access tell me:

will achievements automatically unlock once they are added for Hades 2, or will I need to start a new save?

#

SG take all the time you need.. improve the art/story/character.. do whatever needs to be done to give us the sequel we need and deserve.

#

why isnt this game on geforce now?

brisk trail
#

so you know how there are 3 characters who you can not only talk to on your runs, but will aid you?

#

Sisyphus, Eurydice, and Patroclus

Is it possible to see all 3 of them in a single run?

does steam hades sync over to progress made on xbox version of hades?

#

I haven't necessarily looked into this, but im unsure

ive always been under the impression that steam hades only syncs with steam, while microsoft/xbox syncs to their version of hades

if its about 2, you can report such bugs with F10 in-game

where is the acievements in STEAM?

if you're talking about hades 2, they will likely be added when the game will be fully out on 1.0

Once you have 4 in you can’t have any new gods show up (aside from chaos and hermes)

at what point do you become more than beginner?

I'd say when you beat the final boss at least twice and unlock the entire Mirror of Night (not saying when you buy every tier of it, just unlock it)

hey guys

what go well with asect of zeus?

my headcannon is, when zag throws his blade rift cast the bloodstone rotates so fast it flattens and becomes a disc

ares and athena duo boon called merciful end is amazing but for beginners try maybe dionysus hangover abilities and athena call or artemis call for defense (athena) or extra dmg (artemis)

gloomy bridge

oh the special follow you when you recall it

brisk zephyr
#

yeah

#

personally i dont like the shield

#

i cant deny that its good because its amazing but i prefer the spear

As a Beo one trick I will not stand for this slander

spear,shield sword bow (spoilers) the firsts and the gun, i havent played those 2 much so

I guess the most powerful weapon is spear

only thing that saves it is boons and auto homing special after attack trigger

If you want a castbased aspect all you need to do is look over at spear and notice that achilles (at lvl1) gives the same bonus poseidon does when maxed out

ah

#

aspect of agreouses uprade curve seems a bit low tbh

4% increase....

#

sword.

#

for now

rustic vale
#

yeah it does nothing

cloud mist
#

nemesis it is!

rustic vale
#

especially if you’re doing optimal sword dps rotations it literally doesn’t affect you

#

Since you never standing strike and attack speed doesn’t apply to your dash strikes

#

the real bonus is extra movespeed equals extra rush delivery damage

rustic vale
#

dash strike twice, special, repeat

#

If you have more dashes you can dash strike more

#

Or keep them for safety

#

yes

#

is the weapons all preference ?

#

or is there better ones

jagged hamlet
#

There are winners and losers among weapons, yes

i personally think the gun is bad

#

cuz reloading in a game like this is such a pain

jagged hamlet
#

The gun is one of the better weapons, especially the Eris and Hestia aspects

deep night
#

oh

#

is the fists good ?

rustic vale

Hestia is 50% reloading

No

they’re fine

You shouldn’t not use them

cold isle
cloud mist
#

1.2 minute hydra clear
WHOOOOOOHOO dash strike nemesis is GOOD

cold isle
#

The knock back is fun

rustic vale
#

But they’re not the greatest

deep night
#

i can pull the enemies to myself too

#

so

cloud mist
#

This build is fire rn

#

15 minutes in and hydra vanquished this is a nice run

rustic vale
#

around sword too

deep night
#

like i used the first one on the fists

cloud mist
#

Thanks for the tip shackle, actually, I'm feeling alive rn

rustic vale
# deep night how do i obtain the blood ?

You get blood from beating furies, final boss, and then can get more from that with added difficulty modifiers you unlock after beating final boss (each weapon tracks that individually)

#

Otherwise you rely on fishing and trading with broker or spending 1000ish obols in the final area of the game

#

They aren’t a finite resource I have like 60 rn

deep night
#

how long will it approximately take me to beat the final boss for the first time

jagged hamlet
#

If you're average-good, around 30-40 runs

cloud mist
#

Hmm, world splitter.

cloud mist
#

Big chop attack, is it slow or smth?

#

I'll take supernova though

#

At least it synergyses

jagged hamlet
#

World Splitter is too short and narrow. Awkward to land hits with it

deep night
#

is the spear a good weapon ? its my second favorite

jagged hamlet
#

Two of the spear aspects are pretty good and two are really meh

deep night
#

what is he trying to say

jagged hamlet
#

Hades 2 spoilers! I'm going to steal your chips!

deep night
dim wave
#

Hades 2 Spoiler: New aspect for the skulls is gonna be a Glock 19

cloud mist
#

1.2 minute Theseus and asterion
Does Theseus have less health than asterion?

#

25.6 on lambent!

cloud mist
#

OH NO THE ANVIL IS RANDOM UPGRADES????

#

So much for my double hit dash strike....

#

Dash nova is TERRIBLE

#

Why does it DASH TOWARDS MY MOUSE

#

Can't it dash to where I'm moving???

#

This sucks

latent moon
#

lmfao

#

i mean you aim with the mouse

#

and dash nova goes to where you're aiming

#

unfortunately

#

but yeah anvil be random

cloud mist
#

Hardly

#

My aim is not good

rustic vale
#

You can save jt

#

If you haven’f gone into another room

cloud mist
#

It's not terrible

rustic vale
#

Or bought anythibg else

cloud mist
#

At least I also get sturdy for when I land somewhere unexpected

#

This is the fastest I've run the game though HOOHOO

#

This is so fun

rustic vale
#

It’s the one weapon where

#

all aspects get pretty much the same functionality from hammers

cloud mist
#

Yeah my double edge got replaced with the anvil

#

I'm so sad

rustic vale
#

So it’s the one weapon where a generic tierlist can be used

rustic vale
cloud mist
#

Sure

#

Anvil as in the item with random forges

latent moon
#

you can save scum the anvil lmao

#

as long as you didn't take damage, buy anything else, or leave the room

cloud mist
#

Already bought something else ages ago but I'll keep that in mind

rustic vale
cloud mist
#

Ooh

rustic vale
#

There’s a bit of technique to it because if you don’t change what happens when you load back in

#

then you’ll have the same seed still

#

for the room

cloud mist
#

Btw does lambent plum work in the cerebus level?

#

Like when you go through the rooms do you get bonuses for clearing it fast

rustic vale
cloud mist
#

Awww

rustic vale
#

yeah

#

They both kinda suck

cloud mist
#

Well, I did get plume up to 28%

#

So, not bad deal

rustic vale
#

The deal is

#

you sacrificed control and defense for very little amounts of damage

cloud mist
#

Hmm, true

rustic vale
#

and control of your build is worth more than it’s weight in damage

cloud mist
#

I'm still blazing though though, but I understand

#

I mean in a way it's actually the first time in a while I've actually managed to activate the plume

#

This run is the first time I've managed to activate it

#

And I've got the plume like a few runs ago

#

I like hermes

#

I like being fast

#

Hades first.phase done

#

YES

#

FIRST RUN WITH NO DEATHS

#

31.5 minutes and 1.4 minutes Hades phase 2
Not bad I think!

rustic vale
#

I think the avg hades player get to about 20-15m?

cloud mist
#

10 hours in!

#

Oh that's quick quick

rustic vale
#

Idk my peak was 9:49 but

#

I’m no speedrunner

cloud mist
#

9:49???!?!

#

How even

jagged hamlet
#

I've done sub-8 by a few milliseconds zaglol

cloud mist
#

HOW

#

Are there shorter routes???

rustic vale
#

Sub5 has been done legit and zub3?2? has been done hyperrouted

jagged hamlet
#

Yeah! Here's a primer to speedrunning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bxwSsTPubI

#

2 minutes from start to killing Hades???????

#

Im not planning to speed run but

rustic vale
rustic vale
cloud mist
#

I know still

rustic vale
#

my 9:49 run was prpbably like 25 minutes outside of run

cloud mist
#

I'm talking I did 30 minute in game timer

#

And I thought I was fast....

#

I mean not seasoned player fast

rustic vale
#

30 minutes is like avg beginning time

#

30-40

cloud mist
#

But at least decent fast

#

So it's just I picked a lot of fighting rooms?

rustic vale
#

No

#

It’s not just that

cloud mist
#

Will watch the vid

rustic vale
#

It’s not like the fighting itself takes no skill bouldy

#

and building is another thing entirely

cloud mist
#

It takes skill

#

But it's like clearing a room in under 10 seconds each

#

Or soemthing

#

Or 5

rustic vale
#

not reallt

#

there are only like 50-70? Chambwrs

#

Depending on how long styx takes

#

Tart is usually cleared in 3 or 4 by myself

#

asphodel even less

#

ely is long

#

styx is short

#

Dad fight short

rustic vale
#

and if you don’t 2 sack then you odds are it’s 3 sack and then you don’t have to deal with a regular tunnel end room

#

use keepsakes to your advantage to force your build in and then take util or defencd for elysiums and styx

cloud mist
#

Aight

#

I mean playing faster to me only matters as I can grind currency faster

rustic vale
#

Each weapon has different strats for proper plsying

rustic vale
#

Uh

#

Heat

#

You run extreme measures 2 and forced overtime 2 to make the game faster

#

Since extreme measures 2 tightens the Lernie arena it makes it a lot easier to kill the heads faster

#

And forced overtime 2 means enemies spawn faster, they move to you faster, and they attack faster (sooner jolted damage for zeus builds)

#

those both speed up combat so you can play faster

cloud mist
#

Oh!!

#

That's true

void quarry
#

best thing to upgrade in pact of punishment?

rustic vale
#

1-20 heat then jumps to 32 iirc

void quarry
#

is heightened security the easiest one?

rustic vale
#

I would recommend looking at the aforementioned guide

quasi dagger
#

hades 2 ost when

rustic vale
#

That one if you need help navigating to it

#

Just click on the blue highlightwd bit it should take you straight there

#

If you want explainations for choices you can ask ans I can answer but otherwise I’m not reciting a pretty well made spreadsheet into chat as text

cloud mist
#

Hmm I don't have much good offensive keepsakes rn...

rustic vale
#

You

cloud mist
#

So it's mostly defensive that should be the focus?

rustic vale
#

typically it’s build control then defense after

cloud mist
#

Ah so starting boon!

rustic vale
#

Unless you’re playing beowulf or hera then you can replace defense with a keepsake you get late late gsme

void quarry
#

is aspect of zeus good with frost stuff?

cloud mist
#

I'm sticking with nemesis sword for now

#

Since I find the sword dash strike really fast and fun currently

rustic vale
#

I would recommend trying zeus special on zeus shield if you haven’t yet

rustic vale
#

Maybe replace the 2nd god sith a 3rd helpful god if you already got that second god

cloud mist
#

Aight!

rustic vale
#

but that’s only a maybe

cloud mist
#

I'll check which one boosts dash strikes and such

rustic vale
#

for it

cloud mist
#

Which two?

rustic vale
#

Heart rend or merciful end

#

Artemis + aphrodite (extra crit to weakened enemies, and ares + athena (deflect drops doom) respectively

cloud mist
#

I have neither of their keepsakes yet but I'll keep em in mind

rustic vale
#

That is 4 gods

#

and goddesses

#

you don’t have any of them?

cloud mist
#

I have some but not the 4

#

I keep forgetting

rustic vale
#

Dang

cloud mist
#

It's fine

rustic vale
#

Yeah you’ll want them all

cloud mist
#

Just a run or two

#

Or three

rustic vale
#

I’d also recommend just

#

Experimenting with things

#

As much as I can tell you what’s meta

#

I have fun myself by throwing random stuff that should be reasonably effective with a little theorycrafting beforehand

#

sometimes

#

Not all the time

cloud mist
#

Well I'm all about more speed and damage so it's fine

#

Unlock more stuff and then take my time figuring out stuff

rustic vale
#

exactly though

#

Experimenting is figuring things out

cloud mist
#

I've only had 14 runs after all

rancid hemlock
#

Duo between Aphrodite and ares is the one that keeps stacking doom right?

rancid hemlock
#

Aw dang

rustic vale
#

means that if you leave doom on a weakened enemy and don’t touch them

#

It’ll keep going for half of the previous drop

#

Any time you hit them with doom again it replaces that with the new stack

rancid hemlock
#

Ahh ok so it was the one I was thinking about but just remembering wrong

cloud mist
#

Also why are all my bounties question marks

vivid mesa
#

Anyone know what's causing Zeus to not talk about Lucifer? I got Lv. 5 Aspect of Zag, and ||Guan Yu|| unlocked

rustic vale
rancid hemlock
#

Yeah based on what you said that doesn’t sound very good

vivid mesa
rustic vale
#

It’s possibly just the fact that dialogue rng exists

vivid mesa
#

He repeated a few lines the last few times I've tried to talk to him

#

I've also used Zeus's Boon, not sure if that influences anything

rustic vale
vivid mesa
#

Yuppers

rustic vale
#

You do need a phrase where he mentions the rail first

#

Otherwise

#

Yeah it’s just bad rng

#

Going for zeus repeatedly will get you there sooner than not I believe butImm unsure

cloud mist
#

Guan yu???? Isn't that,
There's Chinese stuff involved in the game????

#

Nice

rustic vale
#

I think there was something about it only being the first time you talk to them in a run where they say something importanr but idk

rustic vale
opaque dew
#

10 hours into the game and my farthest chamber reached is 26

rancid hemlock
#

Gotta say, doing other playthroughs on different platforms is real fun since it’s clear I am getting better each time, took me like 60 tries before I beat the final boss for the first time on the switch, 32 tries on the PS5 and now just 9 tries on the iPhone.

opaque dew
#

Is this good

rustic vale
#

Not especially but it’s hard to quantify

rancid hemlock
cloud mist
#

Well I suppose a heavy glaive is a polearm and would be a spear aspect but I wasn't completely expecting that

rancid hemlock
#

First time around I didn’t spend too much on the mirror and that’s why it took me a long time to beat

vivid mesa
# opaque dew Is this good

If you're not good with bullethell or roguelike and playing without much care to the mechanics, then yeah, I would say so. But if you're intensely playing the game with a lot of focus, not really. But yeah, it's hard to quantify

rustic vale
#

heavy is a good word

cloud mist
#

Guan yus glaive is VERY heavy

opaque dew
#

I really like the aegis shield

rustic vale
#

it’s hard to say if it’s not a lot of focus

cloud mist
#

Irl or otherwise in the story it's extremely heavy

rustic vale
#

The thing with all the hidden ones is they feel heavy in comparision

#

often higher base damage slower with larger hit boxes

cloud mist
#

Ah aight

rustic vale
#

but thsy also typically

#

Radically change at least one function of the weapon

vivid mesa
# opaque dew Not a lot of focus

Honestly, just play the game if you're enjoying it regardless of how far you've gotten. You'll eventually get there, even without much focus. A lot of the mechanics, I've just leisurely memorized -- so the more you play, the more you'll muscle memory your way through LOL

cloud mist
#

Haha paws

opaque dew
#

I always go for Zeus and Ares they are the safest bets

rustic vale
#

If you’re concerned about progress and really just want to get through the story then you may want to turn on godmode but if you want to become a more skilled Hades player

#

I would recommend keeping it off

vivid mesa
#

Also, if you feel like you're not progressing the way you want to, there's no harm or foul turning on God Mode

rustic vale
#

starts off at like 20% and grows up to 80% over the course of you dying more

#

Iirc

opaque dew
#

The only thing I'm struggling against right now is the Hydra

vivid mesa
rustic vale
#

I can’t remember the scaling factor because I’ve only looked at if briefly

#

not my cup of tea persay but

opaque dew
#

And the other fury sisters just came out of nowhere did i trigger something

vivid mesa
rustic vale
#

there are a lot of moving pieces to Hades

vivid mesa
#

Hydra is gets easier the more times you face him. I think the hardest out of all the bosses, is the next one after Hydra

rustic vale
#

Nah

#

I mean

#

At this point of the game

#

yeah

vivid mesa
#

Out of all 4 of them?

rustic vale
#

Oh no not out od all 4

vivid mesa
#

I guess the last one is hard LOL

rustic vale
#

But lets just say the term lernie tax is a term for a reason

opaque dew
#

The thing is because I like the shield a lot, Asphodel is actually a pain to traverse because the bull rush keeps sending me into lava

rustic vale
#

I mean

opaque dew
#

And the dashes don't really help

rustic vale
#

You can see exactly where the bullrush is taking you

opaque dew
#

I know but

#

I do it very frequently

rustic vale
#

I would recommend picking up the charged shot hammer when you can

cloud mist
#

I'm going to have to grab world splitter for the minor prophecy.....I don't use the normal attack though so whatever

rustic vale
#

It’s a dps increase and your rushes stop sending you flying

opaque dew
#

I beat meg with only three weapons so far

#

The shield, the bow and the fists

opaque dew
rancid hemlock
#

Best weapon

#

Imo

rustic vale
#

I recommend you give allthe weapons a few more tries

#

Most are pretty decent

#

rail is pretty decent

#

I’m a bow stan all the way

opaque dew
rustic vale
rancid hemlock
#

Always bet on eris rail

opaque dew
#

If its the 6th weapon i didn't unlock it yet

rancid hemlock
#

Best final boss on the phone with a level 2 eris rail. It’s just too good

opaque dew
#

I need 4 more cthonic keys

rustic vale
#

It unlocks a major aspect of the game

opaque dew
rustic vale
#

heh

opaque dew
#

Aight we'll see

#

Bye now

rustic vale
#

That wasn’t even intentional I’m a comedian zaggrin

fair dove
#

I just tested a build, gauntlets with second upgrade from blood of zeus, crit, attack speed, and a flying kick, that thig shreds

rustic vale
#

thar just sounds like chaos

#

not really much of a cohesive build

rancid hemlock
fair dove
#

ive tried doing a build with the rail, trying to make a nuke, + dmg and dmg zone, crit, after dmg from Ares, and just upgrading dmg with perks from chaos

#

I cleared pretty easy the rooms, same as the last boss

little ledge
#

Should I go for heat 1 on weapons I haven't beaten heat 0 on, or go back down?

rustic vale
rancid hemlock
#

I still don’t know what the best configuration for eris rail is tbh, always Zeus attack and Artemis cluster rockets, but I pivot between aphro and Poseidon dash. Not sure which one’s the best between the two

rustic vale
#

So clear on 0 heat for an easiee time gettig them

#

pos dash

#

Is far betterp

rancid hemlock
#

Guess aphro dash would be better if you got heart rend.

rustic vale
#

The aoe speed and damage outclasses aphrdodash by a mile

rancid hemlock
#

Big if tho

rustic vale
little ledge
rustic vale
#

To get clockets

rancid hemlock
#

Even with heart rend? I see

little ledge
#

The only thing I'm missing rn on 0 is the second titan's blood

rustic vale
#

Maybe 0 heat is different it’s been a while

little ledge
#

On 1 it shows all of them as being uncollected

rancid hemlock
#

Yesh it does that for some reason

rustic vale
#

But for every other bounty going over the heat requirement just gives the lowest uncollected heat bounty

rancid hemlock
#

Happened to me on phone

rustic vale
#

So yeah I would recommend just grabbing those last titans blood on the easier difficulty

about that

#

I figure it’s likely the same?

But I’ven’t played or seen footage

I wouldn’t put it past them to keep it the same because it just makes sense

whats the current weapons tier list?

latent moon
#

in no particular order:
top 3: bow, rail, shield
bottom 3: fists, sword, spear

#

some excpetions due to aspects

#

but it's a pretty good generalization

plain dove
#

How is the bow better then the spear

latent moon
#

range, not hammer reliant

#

also has more good hammers

#

better aspects

plain dove
#

Id say its pretty hammer reliant

#

The auto shoot thing

latent moon
#

you dont need that hammer to be good

#

there's other ones anyways

#

twin, triple

#

point blank and perfect

#

explosive on non-rama

jagged hamlet
#

Hera and Rama are pretty darn strong, and Zagbow's good fun

plain dove
#

Idk any of this stuff lol

#

I never change aspects

latent moon
#

i mean disregarding aspects then

#

zag spear still isnt good lmao

#

and zag bow is actually good with the built in crit

#

Are we talking high heat speed runs or just casual play

Both-and in my case

Can someone help me get Aphrodite locked heart

#

What tf do I do

latent moon
#

thing is with casual play is like

#

it's strictly personal preference

#

if you like spear more than bow then that's fine

#

but if youre gonna ask "why is x better than y" then im gonna give reasons lmao

plain dove
#

Im trying to like the bow rn

But like what ive heard its hard to use

spolier Q

#

|| hi . i ls made the queen return , is there any more story after this point or should i get hades 2 for more main story ||

latent moon
#

you finished like the main story, there's an epilogue and other side stories as well

#

but that takes a considerable amount of time so if you only care about the main story then you can move on if you want

jaunty geyser
#

thank you ^^

#

i js care about some of the characters and i already know everthing about them , and i really wanna know who is "Him" so ig im gonna play hades 2

#

thank you for help

rustic vale
#

And just pull out from the available ones

#

so if you got a duo the game determined you would get a legendary or duo, and then looked at what you could get and picked the duo

#

The odds are like 12% or smthing

plain dove
jaunty geyser
#

i js got hades 2 , tried it , no idea what is going on 😭
