I also like Guan Yu

#

I even did a hitless run with it

latent moon
#

Guan Yu Athena spin build btw lmao

stuck meadow
#

is proper upbringing supposed to only affect boons taken before getting it or to all future boons?

reef zodiac
#

Went through my old videos and found this, if anyone wants to experience an accelerated version of the console Guan Yu experience https://youtu.be/5PfEYl-EYl8

Big deflect circle good

#

Needs quick and massive spin tho lmao

latent moon
# reef zodiac Lmfao that’s something else

The 3rd weapon to clear max heat.
With monodash.

Unseeded, modded world record.

No hit in Asphodel, 5 acorns left in Heroes fight, and no hit in Styx!

Again, huge thanks to Mysterra for the best thumbnail.

▶ Play video

The first ever non zeus shield max heat clear.

Finally did it with regular mod (speedrunning modpack + first epic boon) after my hypermodded run.
So this is an unseeded, modded world record.

There's a Mac version glitch : the moment the spin release, it can deflect almost everything on screen. You can see it clearly at 10:58 for example. This ...

▶ Play video
#

Links to both runs btw

reef zodiac
#

Thanks

latent moon
#

Also there's a deflect bug on Mac lmao

reef zodiac
latent moon
#

deflect on guan yu spin and rocket bomb reflects everything on screen

#

it's like right on release or something

#

it didn't really impact this run much if not at all

#

but he also later did a hypermodded run with windows os on 64 and cleared that lmao

latent moon
#

yeah it's mac only which is funny

#

idk if it's on mobile too actually

reef zodiac
#

There’s mobile?

latent moon
#

oh yeah

#

through netflix games

#

so if you have netflix, it's free

#

and apparently if you take delta chamber, it removes the reload button
which normally isnt an issue unless you're on hestia lmfao

mint coral
#

lmfao no way

latent moon
#

yeah lmao

#

happened to someone in speedcord

#

it's actually hilarious

reef zodiac
latent moon
#

you just take the athena boon and play normally lmao

#

like it just happens

#

lemme try and find a clip of it on guan yu

fervent radish
#

when you spin attack, it's a global deflect

latent moon
#

yeah it's right on release

#

i dont know if there's a clip for rocket bomb tho but it's either on release or on landing

#

also speaking of the doc

#

i dont remember if the splitting bolt zeus shield is on the doc

#

there's also rare crop bug on beo cshot and hera

reef zodiac
#

Oh I see

latent moon
#

block "bug" but that might be a hitbox related thing

latent moon
latent moon
#

the hera rare crop thing it apparently makes the cast damage variable or something, i haven't really seen it and none of the speedrunners take rare crop anymore lmao

latent moon
#

i dont remember tbh

#

i thought that was like a somewhat fairly recent thing?

#

can you link the doc again btw

reef zodiac
#

I think I was confused

#

I have a different rare crop Beo bug

#

zagluv🍝

latent moon
#

oh yeah that's a different rare crop bug lmao

reef zodiac
latent moon
#

yeah

reef zodiac
#

Ok thanks

#

Is it just if rare crop hits your cast?

vernal jungle
#

why does the sundial always show the same time

#

is it the same for every player or is it dependent

latent moon
#

i believe it's just picking up rare crop lmao

#

same for everyone

reef zodiac
#

Lmao

#

Amazing

vernal jungle
#

ie. the time you bought the sundial or the time you started playing

I don't understand. I simply don't understand. How does one continue their Hades 2 thought after the bot plops itself right in the middle of their two comments

stray anchor
#

i like how they make such a big deal of consent and boundaries in the dialogue, but like, the juxtaposition with greek gods is hilarious to me

tepid light
#

Minimizing incest implications and encouraging healthy boundaries

#

Despite it being Greek gods

#

As obvious of a change as it is, I can't really blame them for not wanting to have that sort of stuff all over the place in their game

Hi!
I am having problem with Thanatos spawning. After having romanced him, he stopped showing up. It has been more than 30 runs already.
Is that some kind of bug, or are there some other requirements in story for him to show up?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

latent moon
#

it's just rng

#

whether or not he shows up in the run at this point doesn't really have anything to do with story i think

tough vine
#

It's just very strange that till now he appeared at least once every 4 runs, and now suddenly stopped for 30+

fading haven

#

i actually just get all hearts for him and it was the most painful thing ive ever done

#

but

#

i can die peacefully

#

its worth it dw

#

Oh, ok! Thank you for the info!
I will try completing runs and hope for him to spawn.

Hi what happens if you go over the current heat limit for rhe weapon? Like lets say my spear is still at heat 3 tops but I want to skip to heat 5. Will I lose the drops for heat 3 and 4? How does the drops work?

tepid plover

#

Apologies once again

deep acorn
tepid plover
#

Yes

#

You will get the lowest amount

#

So there's no real reason for going above aside from challenging yourself

deep acorn
#

Aaah ok, thank you! I was afraid of missing out the drops if I skip ahead in my heats lol so its an awkward thing having my sword at heat 5 but my rail at heat 2

#

Kinda want to spice up my game

glossy remnant
#

Hey

#

I got time for one more run

#

one more achivement maybe

#

what should I use to get 30% on the butterfly

raw herald
#

Hestia and guan yu can deal a solid amount of damage while being safe

#

Gonna want charged skewer with guan yu

glossy remnant
#

Still died in Elysion, in the boss fight without getting to 30%

#

got to 28%

Once more at 28% :/

What is required to get the achievement of beating Elysium with the extreme measures thing on?

#

I already finished multiple runs with the extreme measures on, obviously including elysium

#

But still didn’t get it

#

There is a quest about talking with Poseidon after, but he is YET to appear to me, and the only time he did appear he talked about the god damn feast

#

Do I need to speak with Poseidon and finish that quest to get the achievement?

mint coral
#

Probably

#

Just use his keepsake the run after

#

If you got the epilogue recently everyone will be talking about it for a few dialogues

wild arrow
#

OH RIGHT

#

THE KEEPSAKE MAKES IT EASIER TO FIND HIM

#

I always forget those stupid keepsakes

#

And instead of speaking how I beat the champions he just said bla bla food was good bla bla

Wow thanks Poseidon

Btw, what is ||+2% ambiguity bonus?|| Does it have any gameplay effect, or am I just wasting my nectar?

Ambiguity is the only useless one

Most of the time you get a 1%-10% buff to a random stat

#

That's hilarious. I remembered there were other buffs too, but then haven't played for a year, came back just now and only got ambiguity, so I was starting to doubt myself.

mint coral

Is because you do not believe in bouldy

does hades ever react to you using his spear?

@pseudo bobcat dash strike on bow allows faster charging at the cost of some base dmg

Hey what's up I'm new to this discord

sacred oxide
#

I have a question, who is the face in aspect of zeus shield?

warm swallow
#

is Hydralic Might worth it? (Epic rarity, in particular)

#

I'm between that (+75% DMG for 10 first seconds) and Typhoon's Fury (+300% DMG for slamming enemies into barriers)

rustic vale
#

+75% additive to attack and special

warm swallow
#

I got Poseidon on my Attack (with Shield) for reference

rustic vale
#

Vs +300% to specificalky the damage that the walls do

warm swallow
#

bosses cannot be knocked back, right?

barren bridge
rustic vale
#

there are some great clips of Hades being knocked into walls multiple times with breaking wave

#

And his hp just chunking down

#

It’s just knockback is heavily reduced

warm swallow
#

I went with Hydraulic might... and immediately regretted it cause I realized it doesn't fit my playstyle.

only 1 enemies fully avoids any knowback

yeah, my mistake is that I've got an Epic Ravenous Will + Charged Shot

so my main strat it to unload all 3 casts at the start and then use the Charged Shot

Just use the hydro might buff first

Throw one for boiling blood

#

Do you prefer having 2 people sing at once in eury's chamber or the ability to throw a boulder on your enemies

paper wedge
rustic vale
#

The boulder is if you choose not to use other companions*

paper wedge
rustic vale
#

it’s just which one you do first

#

so choose boulder or both singing you’ll grt both eventuallt

paper wedge
#

I like Orpheus a little bit more so I'm choosing him and also it's one last diamond then Sisyphus

#

Oh for context I'm very early in this game I no what happens in the story and all that jazz I don't even have companions yet

Hi all I made a stupid error. I played a lot last night and put my steam deck to sleep with the game running. Just now I played some more on my PC and then woke the deck later.. It said the cloud save was in conflict (obviously) but I selected the wrong save and now all the progress (it was a lot) from yesterday is completely wiped.. Any way to reverse this?

#

It's stupid because now I have the Blood bound achievement but no weapon aspect is maxed anymore...

rustic vale
#

I would recommend checking if your computer has seperate data on it atm

small vigil
#

Okay

#

So

#

Just in case somebody's interested

#

I've just fulfilled Poseidon's favor

#

Without catching all types of fish

#

Five are still undiscovered

void vigil
#

i dont think you have to catch all fish

#

just have one on you before you talk to him

small vigil
#

I was told and read somewhere that I should catch 18 unique types of fish and have at least 1 when talking to him

void vigil
#

maybe 18 fish total?

mint coral
#

Is it just 18 fish then

#

The wonders of the wiki ig bouldy

void vigil
#

wow it does say that

mint coral
#

Yeah that tripped me up lol

#

Always said it as 18 total but then I read the wiki

void vigil
#

so obviously, its not all types hu

#

and good, because if people complain about aphrodite and hypnos favor, i couldnt imagine having to get all chaos and surface fish just for poseidon favor

does anyone know how to cheese hades with a shield?

Ideakly both

#

With rod just throws the cast a pillar, sit at corner and block

#

He'll die eventually

late vessel
#

i remember you could step in a corner and he cant hit you

#

idk

tepid plover
#

Yeah, shield blocks everything coming from the front so you can totally do that

late vessel
#

died at 2nd phase damn

#

i thought hades was harder to where u cant block i havent played in a long time lol

tepid plover
#

Nah shield is that stupid

quiet merlin
#

otherwise he can dash behind you and hit you

late vessel
#

i see

tepid plover
rustic vale
#

The shield can’t block piercing attacks like Hades shockwaves

tepid plover

Well yeah, but it blocks pretty much everything else

no pomegranates would matter for story reasons iirc so that's why i'd ask

i absoluetly despise the bow

its required for a challenge reward

ik

#

im surprised i got this far with the bow tbh

#

theres some videos on some bow builds if you wanna check that out

tepid light

you could just

beat him with it

i keep dying lol

#

idk how to use bow

tepid light
#

Well

#

There's a way to solve that

#

Practice

late vessel
#

nah

tepid light
#

Well, too bad then

Unlike with shield, the other weapons don't just let you hide behind block forever

latent moon
#

charges faster and becomes more of a rhythm game

#

but there isn't really a cheese build for bow

#

esp not with chiron

tepid light
#

I feel like you're not gonna get far if you're only going for 'cheese' builds anyway

latent moon
#

the "cheese" builds are just good builds lmfao

late vessel
#

i got to 2nd phase i was so close to beating hades with bow lol

latent moon
#

unfortunate

late vessel
tepid light
latent moon
#

yeah true

#

i was thinking cheese along the lines of "delete health bar" lmao

tepid light
late vessel
#

that was the first time

#

lol

#

i want this challenge over with so i dont have to use bow

latent moon
#

i mean you'll need to get better at it for bounties lmao

#

but it's literally just all dash striking

#

everyone hates the bow until they realize that dash striking makes it charge faster

#

and makes it a lot smoother to play

jagged hamlet
#

And having a build that isn't terrible also helps. Have we asked which build our doggo is running?

late vessel
#

i was using artemis and that one cold girl i think

tepid light
#

artemis attack, demeter special?

late vessel
#

yes

#

wait nah

tepid light
#

that's not bad

late vessel
#

artemis special

#

demeter attack

tepid light
#

oh

#

that's

#

ok that's a lot worse

#

the reverse is much better, albeit still not the best

late vessel
#

i thought artemis special would be good because its a bow attack 😂

#

i tried to use logic

tepid light
#

with chiron, you want a % damage increase on the attack, and a flat damage bonus and/or stacking effect on the special

late vessel
#

i see

latent moon
#

arty special isn't bad if you get conc volley

#

well same with dem special

#

but dem special you can at least get arctic blast which isn't that bad

#

significantly worse than dio special with poms tho

tepid light
#

dem special isn't as good as dio special on chiron but at least you stack up the frost really quick

#

which helps make encounters more manageable

latent moon
#

true

latent moon
#

bc that's important

What is the best way in your opinion to use a the maxed out call of a god against himself in a trial of the gods? It is one of the very few achivement I haven't done yet.

Tables?

#

Work order or the redecorations for the house

jagged hamlet
#

The question could use another descriptive phrase or clause or two; nobody really knows what you're asking about. Something like "tables...appear randomly along the walls of certain chambers"

#

Oh oops I should've followed up on my own comment. Assuming I'm on the mark, the aforementioned tables are just placeholders for Well of Charon, Pool of Purging, etc. etc.

rustic vale
#

It’s going to be easiest to rack up call % on rail with lightning strike (or a dionysus build on fists or rail) since the # of hits is a pretty big contributing factor to how fast you charge your call

#

Ofc damage per hit contributes as well so heavy aspects aren’t screwed over but it’s not nearly as much.

stray anchor

can you just sac a few dd to lava damage for call %?

bow is so hard

jagged hamlet
#

You'd better be dash-striking with the bows. Else you might as well play a different weapon

Trying to figure out how to transfer my switch save over to steam, can’t find the cross save option on the steam version though

#

it's generally considered a beginner friendly bow but it's not that good overall, just easy to use

jagged hamlet

Chiron sounds impressive in theory, but in practice is weak and slow

late vessel
#

i upgraded my dash striking thing to the max usually

jagged hamlet
#

What did your build look like?

rustic vale
#

You are still charging up to powershot right?

quiet merlin
#

you charge it up then dash to shoot, then it counts as a dash strike?

#

or is that not how it works?

rustic vale
#

^ that up there is how it works

latent moon
#

well

#

when you dash to shoot, the game treats your damage as a dash strike iirc

#

but you dont get the benefit of a faster charge rate unless you dash into the charge lmao

rustic vale
#

~technically a dash strike but it’s not what anyone here means when they recommend dash striking on bow

latent moon
#

lmao yeah

quiet merlin
#

so this is some kind of bug that causes faster charging when you dash... after charging?

latent moon
#

no it's not a bug

#

it's like

rustic vale
#

No?

latent moon
#

a straight up game mechanic lmao

rustic vale
#

Dash striking is a normal game feature

#

it’s very intentional that striking post dash charges quicker and deals less base damage

latent moon
#

and the reason to why dash striking on bow is important

quiet merlin
#

so you dash and attack and continue holding to charge and it still counts as a dash strike?

rustic vale
#

that is a dash strike

#

Dash -> attack

rustic vale
#

You should notice it charging way quicker, if it doesn’t, you took too long to hit strike

quiet merlin
#

well, I suppose that's why I've always felt the bow was underwhelming

rustic vale
#

For every weapon other than both dash strikes are way more straight forward since you don’t do any charging

quiet merlin
#

I had expected it to be just like a quick shot

#

and sometimes it just doesn't even fire

rustic vale
quiet merlin
#

and I'm like... "I don't like this"

#

because I wasn't expecting to be able to charge for a dash strike on the bow

rustic vale
#

I wasn’t a terribly huge fan of bow before I drank the koolaid either

latent moon
#

technically speaking there is a bug/tech where you can get a quick shot with bow lmfao

#

but dw about that

rustic vale
#

No real gamer has ever used quickshot tech

it's the same tech

#

sword is somehow my best

rustic vale
#

but under fists? or sword?

coarse tinsel
#

same, and claws

quiet merlin
#

but I'm still at the point where I'm using the weapon that gives bonus resources

#

and the rng seems to favor some weapons for me

rustic vale
#

since

#

You have a ton ton ton of Hades left to play

#

and you’re still picking up using every weapon, building each one, etc

bow sucks especially when i just got handicapped with terrible RNG

#

even asterius is hard

jagged hamlet
#

You must needs control RNG via keepsakes

#

Most of the bows need only 1-3 things to really get going

#

are you still using chiron

late vessel
#

yes

jagged hamlet
#

Didn't you get a full rundown of Olympians for Chiron last night?

latent moon
#

yeah lmao

latent moon
#

realistically speaking you only need dio special

#

you just gotta pom it

#

low tolerance isn't that important, it's just nice and something to aim for

#

and isn't that hard to get at least

jagged hamlet

could also not use chiron

#

Me: I'll practice this lire

Also me: really?

late vessel
#

im gonna die to hades again

latent moon
#

hera just needs aphrodite cast and poms on that
zag bow just needs aphrodite/artemis attack more or less

jagged hamlet
#

You are using Olympians' keepsakes to steer your boons, right?

late vessel
#

yes

latent moon
#

i'd simply just not die to hades tbh

jagged hamlet
#

Mm, I dunno then: you'll have to spell out exactly what you're doing per biome to get "bad RNG"

#

With Chiron, it should be as simple as dash-strike tagging someone and volleying a few rounds of Dio

late vessel
#

asterius wasted all my death defiance im f'ed

jagged hamlet
#

You're not grabbing every Olympian door, are you?

late vessel
#

i always die to hades

jagged hamlet
#

You shouldn't be losing that many DDs to Asterius thanthink Something's going wrong

#

You are aware that dashes give invulnerability frames but dash-strikes don't, right?

latent moon
#

what lvl special do you have atm

#

in ely it should be like minimum 5

which is lowkey kinda low for hangover but whenever i play i can generally get something to lvl 5 by then

is dark regeneration better than cthonic vitality?

I've never beaten Charon and I'm just asking who is good against them

#

Also I'm getting him crazy early

#

And it's really frustrating with how little boons and health I have

mint coral
#

Hestia/zeus shield are good

#

One/two boons needed and have the range (or outright blocking attacks) to chill

#

GY has the dmg (needs charged skewer) and range and you are getting one shotted anyways if it's an early fight

Then good I asked

#

Just play some more

#

There will be a mechanic later that allows you to farm Titan Blood

#

Zeus/Dionysos are probably best

mint coral
# fickle charm also how to get more of the titan blood...? i spent it all on achilles spear but...

How do I get more blood

  • beating the first boss for the first time with a weapon will net you one blood.
  • final boss drops another + after that you unlock the best way to farm blood.
    other sources:
    trading for it at the lounge:
  • 1 ambrosia for 1 T.blood is always there.
  • 15 keys for 1 blood which is super good
  • list of minor prophecies.
  • Charon may sell one blood for 1200 gold at the last area shop

Flurry shot

rustic vale
#

Hera loves flurry shot because it's focused on casting and it quickens that process while removing another thing to manage

#

Chiron loves it for kinda the same reason, if you don't find concentrated or relentless it's pretty decent just for getting your shots off

#

and zag will take it if it misses twin shot, triple shot, perfect shot and point blank shot

why doesn't rolling work for hammers anyway?

quiet merlin
rustic vale
# quiet merlin why doesn't rolling work for hammers anyway?

Possibly because while everything else you can roll is related to God’s, hammers are human-made and rigid. On a game mechanics scale, it keeps the at least on some weapons super potent choice from just becoming controllable like everything else

jagged hamlet
#

That said, you can supposedly change one line in some .ini to make hammers rerollable

# mint coral I saw it while closing the site <:bouldy:523329116934635534>

Just now I was trying to get footage of me dash striking with bow (with my hands visible) “hey wouldn’t it be funny if I picked up that zeus boon since I have aphro strike and dem call” -> 1 boon later I have Smoulder Air before Tisiphone fight just for Tisiphone’s screen blacking to catch my face and render the clip unusable

mint coral
#

now tisi works as a doxxer

rustic vale
#

I also didn’t end up using the Smoulder Air at all because it was dem call and I was going to be sending it into new players

#

Mind you I’ve given up now, over the course of a few runs I always either doxxed myself, had too much glare, or just played badly for the boss fights because I was too focused on avoiding those 2 issues from happening

rustic vale
#

Did they call “Call” “Shout” bouldy

mint coral
#

also that yeah lmao

rustic vale
#

I wouldn’t be surprised if it affected them different amounts given no Blade boons want to affect every blade properly

#

Or hold on

rustic vale
#

and the % proportions are just how much that flat amount increases it compared to normal

#

“Bonus Area of Effect 36”

#

then goes on to list the % increase of each blade, where the largest blade has the smallest difference and the smallest blade has the biggest

I then got 1 more athena before I finished asphodel, no divine dash
