In theory yeah but I don't wanna use it

#

Arty and Aphro are better, but it's fine ig

stiff obsidian
#

But I'm a big fan of pos special on Chiron

cunning niche
#

that does sound fun

mint coral
#

Sgg should do a last patch and it just removes the internal cooldown

old bluff
#

Ah yes, Sea Storm Chiron, the only Chiron build that actually does damage

mint coral
#

It wouldn't save chiron but it'd be funny

stiff obsidian
#

Even without sea storm

#

Pos special + the t2 (img I actually forgot the name) do good dmg

oh what šŸ˜­

#

ok how does splitting bolt work ive always been so confused by it

old bluff
#

it works how you think it would, it adds an extra lightning effect to every hit

mint coral
#

Strike with zeus stuff and you get an extra bolt/projectile

rustic vale
#

spawns a 40 damage projectile on the enemy shooting towards another enemy

old bluff
#

Jolted is just a god tier boon

cunning niche
#

bc it doesnt feel as strong as it should

mint coral
#

Probably but I don't think any of the usual zeus weapons would run into it

rustic vale
#

tbh it doesnā€™t feel like itā€™s got a .15s cooldown, maybe smthig higher

cunning niche

hm

#

weird boon

old bluff

I've gotten it like twice so idk

cunning niche

#

140 iirc?

old bluff
#

Yes, but it scales super well with poms

#

120

rustic vale
#

Jolted varies

#

90-120 I believe

#

eh

#

That sounds wrong

cunning niche
#

no way an epic jolted can be 90 lol

mint coral
#

108-120

#

Was just checking lmfa9

rustic vale
#

108-120 makes more sensep

Cuz itā€™d be 60* 1.8-2.0

I got my first 2 clears today, one on heat 2. Both under 30 attempts

Show me who said that lmao

Reddit is generally very wrong about most things hades related

Their build advice is concerning and they're generally pretty wrong about game mechanics a lot of the time

There are a handful of people who know what they're talking about but the majority don't

mystic lark
fervent radish
#

Lmao

latent moon
#

Yeah idk man lmao

fervent radish
#

Abyssal blood is 30% damage and move speed reduction. Why would 90% damage and move speed reduction be balanced

latent moon
#

I would personally just not be downvoted tbh

#

I think my most "controversial" thing I said on reddit was the fact that I think every player can clear 32 heat and get a sub 10 if they wanted to

#

Someone also said I over valued Achilles spear and hades spear is a lot better lmao

So like

#

Don't listen to reddit

All my karma or whatever is from the hades subreddit tho

doesn't look too bad to me honestly

ares attack is fine on fists because it's big flat damage, though having dire misfortune would be nice

athena dash is always good

twin thistle

They have ME so dire doesnt do a whole lot they want impending and poms bouldy

which hermes boon is that

simple inlet
tepid light

nice, hyper sprint is good times

it's not an ideal build but i think it's pretty solid

#

at the very very least, it's a good foundation for something quite effective

raw herald
#

Only 50 base damage doom hurts it a lot

If you get 2 poms youā€™re doubling your doom base damage

simple inlet

where are you now, rarity dismissers

twin thistle

It does for doom bouldy

raw herald

Rarity def does for doom

"rarity doesn't matter except when it does"

Itā€™s more like

Donā€™t roll for rarity but are you really keeping common doom chamber 1

twin thistle

Time to get rush deliv from styx hermes

I'm being sarcastic, I've never really agreed with the "rarity doesn't matter" belief

It implies that rarity never makes a difference when it definitely does

hey guys I have well over 100 hours in Hades and it's only just now hitting me that I kinda suck? I've been playing the Switch version, which has auto aim. The second I turn auto aim off, I stop being as good as I thought I was. Is the PC version the "true experience" that I've been depriving myself of?

usually people turn off aim at cursor

isnt rail what people use the autoaim for th most?

thats literally what makes it one of the easiest weaps

fervent radish

No I use auto aim for rail

#

And aim at cursor for everything else

stiff obsidian

thats not autoaim iirc

theres a separate toggle for autoaim

that everyone uses by default afaik

fervent radish

Alr

stiff obsidian
#

idk

idk anything

#

ugh i hate myself

fervent radish
#

Dw about it

#

All I mean to say is that I let the computer aim when Iā€™m playing rail and manually aim when Iā€™m playing everything else

I realize that auto aim is actually called aim assist

Itā€™s also Edwardā€™s list and not mine, I kinda like dem aid tbh

dems aid imo is the worst in the game

isnt ares aid a dps loss 99% of the time

it doesnt do anything other than add chill

Iā€™d most often rather them

old bluff
#

Pos and Athena are quite good for heat too

stiff obsidian
fervent radish
#

but it also melts everything

rustic vale
#

but sometimes you get forced into an awkward choice between like 2 dem cores and dem aid and Iā€™d honestly take that over aphro aid, arte aid, and ares aid.

#

And I do enjoy when I have it

#

Itā€™s not the best but

#

Itā€™s certainly there

fervent radish
#

and zeus makes everything around you cluttered

old bluff
#

Dem cores are fine to take most of the time

rustic vale
#

If Iā€™m choosing between meme beams, a core I need for my build, and dem aid

#

Iā€™m taking dem aid

stiff obsidian
#

that doesnt make dem aid good

#

thats just because dem sucks too

rustic vale
#

Real

#

But Iā€™m not popping dem aid and being like ā€œeghhā€

#

Like I would with arte and ares

#

Itā€™s not stellar but itā€™s ok.

Im guessing the dialogue starts with Zag asking "Erm, which are you?"

if you have a Chaos effect that makes you take damage when you attack/special/cast and you use it in Erebus, do you fail? Or do you only fail when you take damage from the enemies in Erebus?

crush shot has the highest damage yes

I mean, if your goal is to spread Weak, you'd go Heartbreak Flourish

stiff obsidian
#

i think trippy shot from dio is worth a mention but thats a whole other thing

stiff obsidian
vocal crypt
#

Yeah Trippy Shot does more damage, right?

#

and stuns, and creates a zone that you can get boons for that make it give you damage reduction or lightning bolts

stiff obsidian
#

i dont really know the numbers actually but trippy is usually run with stygian soul bc waiting for the cast to pop back up with infernal is just impractical

jagged hamlet
#

Synergies are nice, but damage is king

vocal crypt
#

awesome, I use Stygian Soul anyway

stiff obsidian

so you end up having to rely on lucky chaos boons giving you extra casts

I can just get chaos casts

You cant get exit wounds with stygian to begin with

vocal crypt
twin thistle
#

Okay maybe im trolling

vocal crypt
# twin thistle ~~Okay maybe im trolling~~

if anything, it's BETTER, because if you have only 2 casts and Auto Reload, you can stack up like 10 casts on bosses. It's like giving Doom to your cast. Exit Wounds is probably best on Aspect of Poseidon though

stiff obsidian

exit wounds is overrrated

If I'm playing something like Poseidon or Hera, I love Exit Wounds

Otherwise it's very mediocre

"You come from the bowels of hell. This is not your place."
"Agreed on both counts! Just passing through, so if you'll excuse me..."
"I will not. <snort> The Champion of Elysium would never back down from such a contest. Neither will I."
"Wait, you're not the Champion of Elysium...? You're the Bull of Minos! I can't imagine who's even stronger than you. Is it Heracles? Tell me it's Heracles."
"I will not. <snort> You talk too much, short one. Come get destroyed."

huh, I didn't think of that. I've been using Drunken Flourish or Lightning Flourish with Aspect of Zeus

tepid light
#

lightning flourish is good on aspect of zeus as well but i'd strongly recommend playing around with different specials

#

you might discover something remarkably effective

lavish sorrel
#

Admittedly, poseidon special on zeus shield is a rather niche strategy. There's little reason to play that over just regular zeusĀ² other than discovering what else can work

tepid light

I didn't mean to have that sound as though I was dunking on it

pos special is detrimental for zeus

It's a really funny strategy

I've only cleared like 7 Heat with it, whereas all my other weapons are past 10 heat

it takes some piloting, but the results can be very entertaining

Okay

#

As a reasonably experienced zeus player I can say that poseidon on special is ass (or poseidon boons in general for zeus shield), it can do 64 as Mysterra/Bai proved but for normal human beings you should probably stick to something like aphro/zeus on special if your intention is to complete high heat efficiently.

I wish you could reroll Daedalus Hammers. Maybe it'd be busted but I don't care. It's so annoying when all 3 options are so sub par. And sometimes I have 2 hammer upgrades when I get to Styx, one that I like and one that I don't, then I get the Anvil

and it removes the one that I liked, leaving me with 3 bad Daedalus upgrades

thats a problem with most hammers sucking

I haven't gotten twin shot or flurry shot in a few days, and I've done numerous Bow runs

triple is nice too

if you hug the enemy all 3 arrows will hit them

I saw that maybe once and I think there was a better option at the time

maybe explosive or perfect shot

stiff obsidian
#

yeah perfect shot is one of the better hammers too

#

bow has a lot of options

vocal crypt
#

unfortunately, Perfect Shot removes your ability to get Flurry Shot, right?

stiff obsidian
#

but perfect shot is more of a 2nd hammer to twin or tripple

#

yes

#

I'm doing a run right now with Point Blank and Ricochet

Ricochet works well because I have Curse of Agony, so I can spread doom to more enemies and apply my Privileged Status

ares attack on bow dread

#

you ideally want a % on your attack

rustic vale
twin thistle
#

Explosive is good if you do pseudo tech bouldy

rustic vale
#

Sure you get a status curse, but you know what else applies a status curse (without any secondary boons). The much more useful Heartbreak strike, and Frost strike (which is like.. an option ig)

#

Itā€™s also just more beneficial to have that additive damage on your first hit rather then proking pstatus for subsequent hits

#

Which is also why family favourites is favourite over pstatus given that bonus applies all the time

To every hit

is there a unique dialogue if you complete the run without mirrors?

So I'm wondering, are there any benefits besides bragging rights to beating the game many times in a row?

I have like 50+ successive wins now, and I am scared at putting the heat too high, in case I die, and have to beat the game 100+ times to get some sort of special achievment or something

stiff obsidian
#

streaks give you nothing, atleast not at that range

mossy gulch
#

thats good to know! will help me push my risk with higher heat!

stiff obsidian
#

good luck

mossy gulch
#

I am on the path to 100%ing the game hehe

1 steam achievment to go, then some more stuff to buy in the house, and the duo prophecy, and I'm pretty much done

you can always just do it again if you wanted to

if i were to do heat 6 before heat 5 can i still get the bounty rewards from heat 5

stiff obsidian

yeds

#

and then you will have to do 6 again too

slate agate

so i can try stupid stuff if i want to

stiff obsidian
#

yep

slate agate
#

so doing heat 6 counts as doing the highest heat youve gotten before

stiff obsidian

you could do 32 heat and it will only complete the next heat levels bounty

ok i ended lernie in about 35 seconds thats crazY

that does require you to have already found a chaos fishing spot though

also get strong drink from dionysus, it's really good

stiff obsidian

good builds in general make bosses much much easier

increased damage and full heal from the fountains

rustic vale

Breaking both Heroes into independent fights should take a lot of stress off your head so you can dodge better

rustic vale
stiff obsidian
#

if you have twice the dps then you fight them for half the duration making them x2 times easier

simple inlet
rustic vale
#

Strong drink is a ~nice pick up if dionysus ended up in your pool by chance or if heā€™s in your build as a focal point, but itā€™s nothing to go out of your way for

#

The more important thing is to get a functional build together then start reaching for those other things that are nice to have

simple inlet
#

how do I get the god sticker things next to my keepsakes?

rustic vale
simple inlet
rustic vale
#

Depends on the npc

#

and thatā€™s not all you have to do

simple inlet
rustic vale
#

Once you hit the max with nectar, each npc has something you need to do to get their favour, which will allow you to gift them ambrosia

#

and fully max them out

simple inlet
#

whats the easiest one for the pact of punishment?

rustic vale
#

I think most npcā€™s are 7 nectars iirc. Most npcā€™s are also just one ambrosia

rustic vale
#

neither of them nerf your entire playthrough, extreme measures just mixes up the Furies fight and Tight Deadline 1 is easily surpassable with just a decent build

#

A few things about tight deadline, any left over time carries over to the next area, and when the timer hits 0 you start taking 5 damage a second, so you can still eek out a win if things go really really wrong

simple inlet
#

I am a fist player, does that change anything?

rustic vale
#

Not really

#

The only pact that really varies by weapon is damage control

#

faster weapons like fists and rail will take it earlier since they deal with it better, but itā€™s never really a great idea to take it

#

letting every enemy survive 1-2 hit longer is just going to drag out your game, and give all enemies more chances to hit you

#

Same thing goes with calesthenics program

simple inlet
#

I attack like 7 times a second I guess it's fine

rustic vale
#

Even then, itā€™s really something thatā€™s just

#

Not worth it to take at this low heat when you have easier options

simple inlet
#

Epic After Party or Rare Premium Vintage?

#

early game btw

rustic vale
#

Iā€™d take premium vintage

#

Unless youā€™re consistently finding yourself at low hp

simple inlet
rustic vale
#

The rarity doesnā€™t really change my opinion either

#

Most of the time, the function of a boon matters over rarity

I mean unless its my main attack boon, then iā€™d reconsider if itā€™s common

robust nebula
#

can anyone watch me do a run and give me some tips

what are the requirements for ME

athena is got giving me dash bro ;-;

rustic vale
simple inlet
rustic vale
#

thatā€™d be the problem

simple inlet
#

also I am in the temple of styx :/

rustic vale
#

The game always tries to give you a core if you have any open. But if you have your cast and dash open, the game will pick between the two

#

and then roll all the boons regularly for the second and third boons

#

So if it rolls a cast youā€™re essentially riding on the game rolling dash for either of the 2 other options

#

Fillling that cast with another godā€™s cast should help if you can

#

If you can do that prior to picking up another athena boon (if there even is another athena boon)
