?
aspodel is the worse
the easiest is tartarus and than elysuim and styx (not countinghades)
Asphodel is easier than tartarus
why
Well for starters it's 50% shorter
that kinda makes it harder but ok
??
less buffs and all
the red just hurts my eyes.. i know we r in hell but i wanna be in beautiful rooms not in lava
i like artemis personality wise more than aphrodite
Aphrodite is goated
same
i hate weak+ when i dont choose her over artimes she gets mad and is so annoying
lookspretty and i like the gimmicks
Huh
the eyes
weak is rly good
Well mine is Poseidon. I like killing rats with water
its been nerfed a lot in hades 2 tho
Oh damn
pushing back people is good
Well atleast I can use the other gods they added
Also still cant afford game and YT keeps showing spoilers
Don't spoil
I have beated Hades 7 times now btw
they all look ugly
i downloaded a youtube blocker that removes any video with "hades 2" in the title
Cant say for Aprhodite tho
yeah i need to avoid the discussion channrl so i dont get spoiled
no they dont
all of the designs are rly good
which are bad
I feel nervous everytime I reach the gate. And somehow I managed to beat him
Every. Single. Run
i played Hades 1 after seeing hades 2 on youtube. The artdesign of Gods of 1 >>> 2 imo
i like the shield and spear but why does she look more white?
fax
And yet. I still feel nervous
I never beated him 5 times in a row before
Am I actually getting good?...
i defeated hades.. then his power bar filled up again..
Health bar
Ah
He has two phases
yes health bar hehe
Wait till you get to Extreme Measures 4
yea enemies shouldnt be having death defiances like this
In the 10th time Hades will actually let me pass right?
It's Hades tho
oh wow.. excited to see that
I mean he’s the god of the dead
Cool so I just gotta beat him 2 more times and not have to worry so much after that
Aaaaaand YT just recommended me another Hades 2 spoiler GODA-
Tho I was expecting ||Icarus|| to be in the game soooo...
can anyone help with save restoration
the game can't seem to read any other .sav files i put into the hades folder except 1
there's 400kbs of content and it's showing me an empty save file
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?
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?
yes
I like sell half of the nectar wine, i still dont see any use of that to this day
I already like|| bring back mother||
Still no use for that thing
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
I just started playing the game. Beated it 3 times already. I need 10 right to get the ending.
Ye
Can I cancel attacks which consume mana?
Some of them
How?
this should be in #h2-discussion
Something about Malphon man
Everytime I use it my time gets lower
and it's probably my least favorite weapon lmao
DAMN you hating
Playing this for the first time, W game
Cant wait to complete it and then have number 2 to look forward to
i mean if the player has 3 death defiances i think the final boss of the game deserves atleast one 😌
im going to have to leave this server at this rate
Poor False Side got spoiled on Hades popping back up with a 2nd health bar 
The Unseen Ones intensifies
any ideas when achievements come?
Achievements are already in this game
Hello, Dev team, could you please mark the Boons on the B screen with a symbol or a legend specifying whose boon it would be easier to orient and make specific builds, adjust for elemental bonuses.
Is this for Hades 2?
this is the category for the first hades, if you want to discuss the second game feel free to do so in the categories above - and if you want to leave feedback you can do so in #h2-feedback after grabbing the role from #server-roles 
AD layin down the law
it turns out when you have hades and hades ii the ii iis often miistaken for i
But Hades is just "Hades", not "Hades I" 😮
hiides
Quick question if I wanna post a screenshot of hades 2 that aren't a victory screen where can I post it?
links will embed, so you can post images by linking imgur links or other image hosting sites
also this is the hades category for Hades The First
Just realized that my b
and platforms will be announced later on as is said in #hades2-faq , so we don't know yet
Hello
I bought Hades on steam but its not showing up in my library 😭
someone pls send link sequal and histoey
check out #hades2-faq for some answers, as well as the game itself
AD busy busy busy
an why does the game audio sometimes glitch and make the EEEERT thing
the thing when the really short section of audio gets looped and it sound it its crashing
is this about hades or hades 2?
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
thank you
Hello, how can I get seeds please?
How are people skipping right past the Hades 2 channels which sit above the Hades channels?
I wish I knew more about UI/UX. I'm sure this would be a fun study
Riot! Riot! Riot!
||I like that when you fight hades in the second phase the song is metal||
Forboding and somber -> METAAAAAL
Maybe some oddity with the new Channels & Roles selector hm
sometimes #supergiant-games , maybe even #off-topic-discussion
Metal is based
hades
Petition for Supergiant games to make a Persephone farming sim spin off
Now what should be the name of this game?
Persepharmy
i do run the game on a i5 11th gen integrated gpu craptop BUT
try the fixes, here maybe #h1-tech-fixes message
its les staticy, more it goes BBRRRRRRR
I'm looking forward to the Melinoe cosplays
Might be fun to run LatencyMon and see if something's eating cycles
nOOO-
oh yes
guys how do I unlock poseidon's locked heart, I already caught thousands of fishes and he even comment saying "I'm told a number of underwater denizens from my domain were captured fair and square..." but still not unlocked. What do I do!!!!
how to get the shovel please?
the best hades gif
Okay so finally playing the switch version of hades in docked mode.
I'm never playing on joycons again i was struggling playing handheld lol
If you think about it Zag, Meg, and Than are all poly and bi
I'm satisfied with just thanzag thanks
They’re canonically all poly
I don't care lol
I only romanced than 😃
theres no concrete canon, you can do whatever romance you want or none at all
Fair enough
We all know Dusa is best girl though
In the server I heard Zagreus used to date Megaera
where or when do i meet thanato
I believe you meet him during a run
but will sometimes be in the house of hades after that
I feel he appears the least though
the superior mercy
#mercy-discussion
heheheheh
you know what other game has witches?
NO WAY
youre not gonna believe this one 

i know it's different in different regions, but that word is essentially a slur - so im deleting that
anyway, hades, huh
love that game
Never heard of it
It's an FPS right?
dead chat
this chat is being sent straight to the house of hades to be judged by hades
denied
next!
would I be better just getting hades 2 in early access or is it still worth getting hades?
it is always worth getting hades. never too late to start playing
more of a reliably good game than one still in progress
<@&456908176877551658>, someone is spamming scams
Not any more! Thanks for the report.
is there away to see previous escape attempts in hades 2? I thought i saw it before but i forgot where it is
might want to try #h2-discussion
yes
each chamber counts afaik
also counts for mom pom, but not for plume and butterfly i think
it levels up but only the final chamber counts for the buff
Был бы дискорд под русское сообщество, вообще кайфанул бы
Begone, froggy! Off to #h2-feedback with ye!
Thanks for noticing. My bad.
Is aphro dash any good?
Not particularly, no
It’s not terrible
best boon imo
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
saw this is still pinned, check if that still works perhaps. #h1-discussion message
interesting, so you just override the literal save with the current save youd like to play on
Man all this hades 2 stuff got me redownloading Hades again
I've been thinking about another playthrough, but it's still too fresh in my head. Let it simmer for another few years.
Wut
so like do boons just apear at random or does pick rate effect it at all, like i notices in one run after picking up a few zeus boons i kept getting him alot, is that just like luck or what?
yea i also noticed this.
for any god
just random
Aside from just how the god pool works
It’s random
When you pick up a god who isn’t hermes or chaos they’re added to the pool
Once you have 4 in you can’t have any new gods show up (aside from chaos and hermes)
- you can bypass this through several methods but you only have control over one
Ie. Using a god (who you don’t have)’s keepsake upon enterig a new biome for
I liked demeter a lot in one but I feel like her boons in the sequel aren't great
havent played the squeekwal
dw her boons in the first game aren't that great either
theyre good with like gun and knuckles but thats ab it
Oh wrong chat mb
nah they're not good on either of those lmao
Not really?
I miss the insanity of demeter turrets and frost stacking and all of the duo boons that went along with it
dw you're in hades 1 discussion where they still exist
Unless you mean just sonething to throwing a big +% on demeter special or rail special
ahhh mb
Dw it’s not “used to”
I wonder just how badly I'll one day be spoiled by Hades 2 players wandering into this channel
Yeah
Same tjing with builds
The sooner I finish my terraria expertmode world the less I have to worry about that 
ATP I already know two boss fights and how the victory screen is
I’m too busy fishing to do wof though

I know
Hestias design
I think?
Wait was it hestia even
Which goddess am I thinkung of
Hestia soumds wrong
Now it's you 
I don’t think that’s the one I saw
Hold on
I think I have the wrong goddess I’m just schizoung
it wasn’t hestia

I remember now.
But
I’m not name dropping them for u
Hesti was the first goddess in mind becayse I was just talking to friends
It’s only so long before I get spoiled for Hades 3
Slmeones going to name drop Bellerophon or smthing
and I’m going to be in shambles
we gonna get Pluto 1 before hades 3
Nuh uh
Anubis 1 
Lemme crack out crocodiles and frogs from boons
or hit people with earth from nut
Wait she’s the sky goddess
i got em confused

Anuways
This is big brain
Make it a 3d fps game(optional) 
Me rn:
waiting for full release of H2.
but also cant contain the exitement so came on discord.
but also dont wanna spoll anything so staying on H1 discussion channel 🫠
Hey
I have a question did Hades I becomes in the future updates for new Operating Systems or are no updates coming?
H1 is done as far as i know
SG is a small team so they do only 1 thing at a time.
any tips for a beginner i only reached the part after the water area or blue area
U mean the area with a cow man?
Just keep playing, let your mistakes be your tips and tricks
That’s the only true way of playing
not necessarily
When the 1.0 version comes out with achievements will my progress be deleted since in other early access games this happens
I have the same question tbh
Look in hades 2 discussion they said we keep our saves
ye cow guy and he let me go after igot him low
alr
Did you beat the whole area?
actually idk i forgot i thought i did tho
Linked my switch sve to my stem one and the game just gave me all the achivements i got on the switch which i appreciate but also it looks kinda sus that i unlocked all of these in such a short time span 
hahaha thats the case with the achievements, most of them unlock retroactively so you dont need to start a new file and do it all again
It’s fine, people will just think you used achievements manager 😅
Just blame Nintendo!
Aw man
I’m just messing with you
I know lol
fwiw you're not the only one that did this, i don't think people will think any of it
oh what the heck, i just noticed that somenoobdying isn't in the server anymore
what happened
maybe too many hades 2 spoilers in the wrong channel lmao
he got banned for that?
or he just got busy who knows
that's not really a reason to leave the server entirely, though
Been replaying the game over the last couple days before getting Hades II...after 120 hours I only just noticed that there is a fan of Zagreus in the crowd of the Theseus/Asterius fight that you can interact with.
Just completely ignored the crowd until then lmao
Guys is double edge supposed to have new animation? I try use it and its the same dash strike
its the same animation
its just that the dash strike attacks again after 0.1 seconds
Yeh thwts why it doesnt proc attack sometimes
Guys
I have aspect of Zagreus max
Aspect of eris unlocked
That means i already spent more than 5 titans blood
I already have the secret aspect of the spear unlocked
But i talk to zeus a lot
And he never says "I see your prideful fall down from the heavens to the flames”
There is smth i forgot to do?
I think it's random
Hello! is there any way to upgrade the grasp limit?
hey out of curiosity whats the limit for god mode?
80% i thiiiink
Do people just ignore #h2-discussion
why am i fighting thesus and minos, even tho i didnt fight minos
Theseus and Asterius are a Duo boss
it doesn’t matter if you fought the minotaur separately or not
I haven’t actually played Hades in a while
best person to give nectar too?
For keepsakes or for romanceing?
keepsakes
I'd go for Athena asap, mainly for her dash boon
If you're already good at dodging, especially early game, Thanatos is good too with Pierced Butterfly
(oops, mistaken for Nyx)
Zagreus very zesty
true
best stuff to buy with diamonds?
I usually traded it for ambrosia and then titans blood initially when I didn't have many aspects now that I am much used to the game I mostly spend them at contractor or sometimes some new music
Rod of Fishing, several work orders for to complete Prophecies,
Deluxe Contractor's Desk, Pitch-Black Darkness, Fated Keys, Brilliant Gemstones, Vintage Nectar, Darker Thirst
esssssspecially Fated Keys
what weapon should i be using? i use the spear quite alot but i dont get good builds on it most of the time
Hello!
Shield or Rail for beginners
at what point do you become more than beginner?
good question, i'm not sure
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)
damn and i thought making to styx was good enough 
hey guys
what go well with asect of zeus?
i feel like its special is just ares blade rift
Zeus special on special and then look for jolted from Zeus
best builds for shield?
aspect of zeus with explosive burst hammer ability is what i like
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)
oh the special follow you when you recall it
yeah
personally i dont like the shield
i cant deny that its good because its amazing but i prefer the spear
SAME
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 like makin weird builds rn im doin a dodge based build with aspect of zag twin fists and hermes plume
hermes doesnt give the same god copy paste boon tho
it gives dodge and not makes him spawn first
I just dont like the bow
I know
I never have a good run with it
if the bow auto fire it would be s tier
It does have an auto fire hammer
o sht
What kind of builds are you using?
hmm
i dont like the bow cuz im a mobile player its hard to use
I mostly use chiron bow only
Hades is on mobile too?
Yes
ios?
yeah if you have netflix
I see
Im using chiron and im doing dionysus build
I see
ig it should work
thats the usual best build
or artemis
Unfortunately, Chiron is weak in general
I guess the most powerful weapon is spear
only thing that saves it is boons and auto homing special after attack trigger
or sword maybe
But dio special is good, you probably want to go for aphro attack and arty cast
Most powerful weapons are shield and rail no questions asked
aspect of Gilgamesh fists are cracked tho
What
auto target attacks
this shield is pretty busted ngl
do you just spam special on shield?
I've noticed rail doesn't stun
i just hope the special has a larger range
No, Charged shot is super strong
depends on the aspects and boons you have
u can do that with aspect of chaos shield
It is a gun, you should not be at point blank
Hades 2 discuss pls
o oops I thought I was there
Happens a lot

unfortunately i havent been hades once on mobile yet
its so hard to play on a tiny screen lol
Also can you use thanatos companion on hades? I always have like 2 charges of it rdy to go and it always says summon unavailable
You can later in the story, but Than companion is super hard to use against Dad due to it taking forever to go off
yeah no the bajillion years it takes to use suck
i have static discharge explosive return hyper sprint phalanx shot and thunder flourish on shield rn, should i go fro ambrosia delight or pom or refreshing nectar?
It’s why all high level players use Meg
but hey its cracked
i personally do refreshing nectar because i never have boons but i recommend the ambrosia
I would go nectar to try and get RD
i think its the level boosting one
i would get meg but im broke in nectar cuz i used it all on thanatos and meg kinda scares me ik her ability is cracked but she just gives me the creeps her VA did well on voicing her
It’s called mashing through dialogue
i always skip diologue lol its a waste of time unless im focusing on story
the rats are a literal pain in temple of styx the poison is so annoying
Little or big rats
big
Idk what else to tell you except use the drinks in the chamber
I feel dumb but -- hades is on mobile??? 👀 on android? Or did I make a blunder in my out of context jump in
darn my android usage
Dude hades is so petty
is it impressive i bet hades with only 8hrs on game?
finally beat hades after 36 HOURS, 49 ESCAPE ATTEMPTS and god mode on 4 of those runs
Ish? It’s a hard metric
Wrong chat?
Idk how people keep stumbling over here
Hades 2 is higher up
It's all a conspiracy to sow spoilers everywhere!
I almost won 
i would say it is because it took me 36 hours
10 hours into the game and my farthest chamber reached is 26
is that good
i cant pass the hydra
Aaaaa
I had such a good run build on Sprints
but Beach Ball can sometime break your sprint and you won't be able to dodge or sprint until you leave the room
prob #h2-discussion
You are correct
Good Bananas
Hades 1 gang!
Too many spoilers
I'm going to start stealing chips out of lunches owned by people who wander in here and spoil Hades 2
steal their entire lunches actually because wtf 😭
ive been spoiled so much
Hmm actually the gun is really good against bullet hells
Since shooting destroys projectiles as well it makes a few encounters much easier
NO WAY I KILLED THE LAST RAT BUT HIS POISION GOT ME BEGORE THE CHAMBER WAS OVER SO I USED SKELLY 😭😭😭
hmmm, aspect of nemisis ofr posoidon...
Nemesis
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
I like Poseidon when I want to cast but am feeling lazy
it depends on the weapon
yeah it does nothing
nemesis it is!
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
hmm what is that
dash strike twice, special, repeat
If you have more dashes you can dash strike more
Or keep them for safety
thanks
I really wish there was an option to not take the award when you finish a room
Messes up my build
Oh god clearing rooms is so much faster now especially with he dash strike damage perks
Helped tremendously
Happens sometimes that’s just something you have to work around
LMAO WHAT
YOU CAN LEAVE DURING A INFERNAL TROVE???
LMAO
I WAS ON 1 HP SO I LEFT LMAO
I TRIED BUT I DIDNT KNOW IT WAS POSSIBLE
guys
i bought the game about 7 hours ago and i have beated the skeleton hydra so far
is it good progress ?
WOWIE
took me a weak to beat that hydra
Even then it was only bc the divine dash I won
dodge and reflect carried me
gauntlets are my favorite weapon rn
i got the magnetic gauntlets
i don't remember its name
The fist
There are winners and losers among weapons, yes
The gun is one of the better weapons, especially the Eris and Hestia aspects
If you like them you should try them with Poseidon boons
1.2 minute hydra clear
WHOOOOOOHOO dash strike nemesis is GOOD
The knock back is fun
But they’re not the greatest
alr
i can pull the enemies to myself too
so
They are pretty mid. No they aren’t a waste of blood or keys or anything, but they ring in about last place
around sword too
how do i obtain the blood ?
like i used the first one on the fists
Thanks for the tip shackle, actually, I'm feeling alive rn
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
how long will it approximately take me to beat the final boss for the first time
If you're average-good, around 30-40 runs
Hmm, world splitter.
Big chop attack, is it slow or smth?
I'll take supernova though
At least it synergyses
World Splitter is too short and narrow. Awkward to land hits with it
is the spear a good weapon ? its my second favorite
Two of the spear aspects are pretty good and two are really meh
what is he trying to say
Hades 2 spoilers! I'm going to steal your chips!

Hades 2 Spoiler: New aspect for the skulls is gonna be a Glock 19
1.2 minute Theseus and asterion
Does Theseus have less health than asterion?
25.6 on lambent!
yeah he has less hp
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
lmfao
i mean you aim with the mouse
and dash nova goes to where you're aiming
unfortunately
but yeah anvil be random
Dw
You can save jt
If you haven’f gone into another room
It's not terrible
Or bought anythibg else
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
Dw I gotchu for sword hammers
It’s the one weapon where
all aspects get pretty much the same functionality from hammers
So it’s the one weapon where a generic tierlist can be used
Want some secret sauce about anvil?
you can save scum the anvil lmao
as long as you didn't take damage, buy anything else, or leave the room
Already bought something else ages ago but I'll keep that in mind
This works for heart of stone boons and eury rarity/pom boosts btw
Ooh
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
Btw does lambent plum work in the cerebus level?
Like when you go through the rooms do you get bonuses for clearing it fast
Plume amd butterfly only count the final rooms of styx tunnels
Awww
Hmm, true
and control of your build is worth more than it’s weight in damage
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!
It’s not bad for starting out that’s for sure
I think the avg hades player get to about 20-15m?
I've done sub-8 by a few milliseconds 
Sub5 has been done legit and zub3?2? has been done hyperrouted

Kinda. You take every shop every chaos room every story room, know what you’re doing and make good build decisions
2 minutes on ingame timer
I know still
my 9:49 run was prpbably like 25 minutes outside of run
I'm talking I did 30 minute in game timer
And I thought I was fast....
I mean not seasoned player fast
Will watch the vid
It’s not like the fighting itself takes no skill 
and building is another thing entirely
It takes skill
But it's like clearing a room in under 10 seconds each
Or soemthing
Or 5
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
You route styx to take the miniboss rooms first since they’re shortest
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
Each weapon has different strats for proper plsying
Yeah that’s another thing
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
best thing to upgrade in pact of punishment?
Theres a guide pinned in #h1-high-heat-strategies for new heat players
1-20 heat then jumps to 32 iirc
is heightened security the easiest one?
Nope
I would recommend looking at the aforementioned guide
hades 2 ost when
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
Hmm I don't have much good offensive keepsakes rn...
There aren’t many
You
So it's mostly defensive that should be the focus?
typically it’s build control then defense after
Ah so starting boon!
Unless you’re playing beowulf or hera then you can replace defense with a keepsake you get late late gsme
is aspect of zeus good with frost stuff?
I'm sticking with nemesis sword for now
Since I find the sword dash strike really fast and fun currently
Zeus works best with flat damage on the special (especially zeus, but also ares and dionysus). You can build +% on it too like demeter but
I would recommend trying zeus special on zeus shield if you haven’t yet
Yeah typically tartarus and asphodel you take god keepsakes for the 2 gods you need jn your build
Maybe replace the 2nd god sith a 3rd helpful god if you already got that second god
Aight!
but that’s only a maybe
I'll check which one boosts dash strikes and such
Ah if it’s nem therenare reallt 2 big duos that work
for it
Which two?
Heart rend or merciful end
Artemis + aphrodite (extra crit to weakened enemies, and ares + athena (deflect drops doom) respectively
I have neither of their keepsakes yet but I'll keep em in mind
Dang
It's fine
Yeah you’ll want them all
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
Well I'm all about more speed and damage so it's fine
Unlock more stuff and then take my time figuring out stuff
I've only had 14 runs after all
Duo between Aphrodite and ares is the one that keeps stacking doom right?
No
It just
Aw dang
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
Ahh ok so it was the one I was thinking about but just remembering wrong
Also why are all my bounties question marks
Anyone know what's causing Zeus to not talk about Lucifer? I got Lv. 5 Aspect of Zag, and ||Guan Yu|| unlocked
It doesn’t work the greatest…
lvl 5 zag rail?
Yeah based on what you said that doesn’t sound very good
Yah
It’s possibly just the fact that dialogue rng exists
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
Have you been interacting with him with the rail equipped?
Yuppers
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
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
Hidden aspects are from everywhere but greece
10 hours into the game and my farthest chamber reached is 26
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.
Is this good
Not especially but it’s hard to quantify
Feels to me that you may not be engaging with one of the mechanics, don’t know which one tho.
Well I suppose a heavy glaive is a polearm and would be a spear aspect but I wasn't completely expecting that
First time around I didn’t spend too much on the mirror and that’s why it took me a long time to beat
All the hidden ones are like
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
heavy is a good word
Guan yus glaive is VERY heavy
Not a lot of focus
I really like the aegis shield
it’s hard to say if it’s not a lot of focus
Irl or otherwise in the story it's extremely heavy
Yeah but I’m just saying that’s like
The thing with all the hidden ones is they feel heavy in comparision
often higher base damage slower with larger hit boxes
Ah aight
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
Haha paws
I always go for Zeus and Ares they are the safest bets
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
Very much this.
Didn't know that was a thing tbh
Also, if you feel like you're not progressing the way you want to, there's no harm or foul turning on God Mode
In settings it’s growing dmg reduction
starts off at like 20% and grows up to 80% over the course of you dying more
Iirc
The only thing I'm struggling against right now is the Hydra
That is correct +2% per death
I can’t remember the scaling factor because I’ve only looked at if briefly
not my cup of tea persay but
And the other fury sisters just came out of nowhere did i trigger something
Yeah, you defeated Meg too many times :P
Yeah you’ve just progressed through the story
there are a lot of moving pieces to Hades
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
Out of all 4 of them?
Oh no not out od all 4
I guess the last one is hard LOL
But lets just say the term lernie tax is a term for a reason
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
I mean
And the dashes don't really help
You can see exactly where the bullrush is taking you
I would recommend picking up the charged shot hammer when you can
I'm going to have to grab world splitter for the minor prophecy.....I don't use the normal attack though so whatever
It’s a dps increase and your rushes stop sending you flying
Yeah i need to utilize that more
I reccomend you give the rail more tries
Best weapon
Imo
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
What's the rail
Gun
Always bet on eris rail
If its the 6th weapon i didn't unlock it yet
Best final boss on the phone with a level 2 eris rail. It’s just too good
I need 4 more cthonic keys
You’ll want to do that soon
It unlocks a major aspect of the game
Its my next goal
heh
That wasn’t even intentional I’m a comedian 
I just tested a build, gauntlets with second upgrade from blood of zeus, crit, attack speed, and a flying kick, that thig shreds
Lol
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
Should I go for heat 1 on weapons I haven't beaten heat 0 on, or go back down?
You’ll be getting the same 0 heat rewards if you turn heat up
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
Guess aphro dash would be better if you got heart rend.
The aoe speed and damage outclasses aphrdodash by a mile
Big if tho
Not really because it’s such a longshot anyways
It looks like it is providing new bounties for 1 heat over 0 heat though?
To get clockets
Even with heart rend? I see
The only thing I'm missing rn on 0 is the second titan's blood
…uhhhhh
Maybe 0 heat is different it’s been a while
On 1 it shows all of them as being uncollected
Yesh it does that for some reason
But for every other bounty going over the heat requirement just gives the lowest uncollected heat bounty
Happened to me on phone
This is still true
So yeah I would recommend just grabbing those last titans blood on the easier difficulty
I like how all the gods have human skin tones and then hades is just grey
I mean he’s the god of the dead of course he’ll have a rotting skin or husk aesthetic
Was there ever a reason why PlayStation didn't get the cross save?
damn i went to the wrong place
how do you unlcok the guan yu aspect, ive already have at least 5 different aspects and beat hades and have the minor list
the wiki says to talk to achilles but hes not saying anything related to that
Zagreus and his dad need to hug it out
Zagreus: hugs knee
How is Orphesus's spotify career going?
Orpheus is def a soundcloud rapper not a spotify guy
damn i reached hades at 3/4th HP with 3DDs and still died to EM4 + FO2
did not expect em4 to modify the first two phases as well
lol
yo yo yo
Don't you ever mess with Nyx
Or I'll send you to river styx
Hypnos always greeting you when you come through
But who knows what Hades bout to do?
how does the rarity differ from the level, never gave much thought about it unitil i played early access
They scale entirely seperately
and it’s boon dependent
Like
OH MG MUCH LOVE
unless you’re talkimg about Hades 2
Then you’re in the wrong channel I have no clud
about that
I figure it’s likely the same?
maybee
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
Kinda the same in the ea
sigh waiting for refund money to buy hades 2
Ugh until tmrw 😭😭
What are the chances of getting a duo boon, and is it the same for legendaries?
Whats the best attack boon for base stygion?
whats the current weapons tier list?
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
How is the bow better then the spear
you dont need that hammer to be good
there's other ones anyways
twin, triple
point blank and perfect
explosive on non-rama
Hera and Rama are pretty darn strong, and Zagbow's good fun
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
i mean im making generalizations lmao
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
Someone please help me with Aphrodites locked heart
you need to max affinity with uh
meg than and dusa?
i tihnk?
Google if needed
I've done it with everyone mentioned , dusa meg and than
i mean it's just dash strikes
dialogue rng then
🙄
And even tho I got her hearts at max I don't have dusas chibi art on her keepsake for some reason
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 ||
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
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
They roll legendaries and duos in the same roll
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
That didn't really spoiler the text lol
sorry my bad
i js got hades 2 , tried it , no idea what is going on 😭
Put || on both sides of a message to spoiler it
