then i got murdered by a floating orb and undieing enemies
i killed the same person like 5 times 😠
What do you mean by snake?
hydra?
Don't get greedy between attacking phases. Get your hits in against the main head and then get away when it winds up for an attack. Same goes for the smaller heads, though they usually have lesser range.
yeah the hydra
stupid imperviousness
i just want to smack you into the ground
i'm not super greedy against the main head
but the smaller heads i am
i just want to destroy them
but they just destroy me ;'(
Poseidon is like that weird uncle at family reunions
he's charming when you first meet him, but afterwards he won't leave you alone and keeps giving you "gifts"
who are the gods i should go for?
i'm guessing poseidon is near the bottom
sorry poseidon plz don't flood california
I like Posidion! His powers are pretty cool!! 😄
I hate to say that Zues seems the weakest, as of now....in my opinion....tried him on high Heat a while ago and it was so....deflating.
Edit: P's knockback powers are awwwweeeeesoooommmeeeeeee
I just got to Elysium on 120 Heat!!!! Wooooooo!!!!!! All the way to Chamber 32!!!!! I can't believe it!!! AHHHHH I'm so happy!!! 😄 😄 😄
I like aiming with a mouse, as well, @brisk trail . Um, "aim at your feet Kasavin"????🤔 whaa?
Zeus is awful sometimes and great othertimes
you have to aim at the enemies feet
because its where their hurtboxes are
Hi, I was wondering if there were any plans of adding an end run button so you don't have to kill yourself if you want to reset/picked the wrong weapon?
There's a give up button on the pause menu; once combat has started in any given area, you can give up and it will reset your run entirely
won't count in your run count or anything
any resources you picked up will also be null and void
oh nice
I've never noticed that cause I normally clear the room I'm in
oh but t doesn't change what you get on your next run
cause I'm still starting with the same first item
yeah, the seed stays the same, though you can change it up some by using god keepsakes or choosing a different path
not sure I am improving at this game at all
Where are you stuck?
damn! the exogryph is AMAZING! did greek gods already knew about nukes 😅
have you seen: the sword
is it the normal sword or another sword
What's the worst run you've ever had? I had a run with the Rail on about 20 Heat where absolutely everything went wrong. Couldn't get any of the right boons, never found a Hammer, had misplays causing me to get blasted by the Bombers Miniboss and eventually just got wrecked by Alecto. Had 1 DD left heading into Asphodel and died to Gorgons in the second room.
my friend got all they way to the 3ed area miniboss with only 3 boons
both of his hammer upgrades where duds as well
run took him 50+ min and he didn't even make it
the worst run i ever had was when i used the spear for the first time, it was terrible, couldent even pass the fury (at that time my highest reach was like at area 2 with the skeleton dragon thingy) i only had 1 boon at it was a dissaster
once I was super tired when starting a new run and somehow died in the first room
i mean u where tired so it kinda makes sence
did you try for a die% speedrun?
I think the bow is my favorite to use but it doesn't feel like it works as well as the other weapons
to me at least it feels like it needs a few hammers before it feels on level with the other weapons
i'm sad and confused by people who say the bow isn't as good as the others :( i use it all the time, it's my favourite weapon
Don't get me wrong I love the bow
I think its the charging to attack aspect where if you want range the exogryph doesn't need to charge and if you want to beat someones face in the other weapons do that better
exagryph is a peashooter though
ammmmo
unless you go with the shotgun or slug hammers but like.... you can't compare rail-with-hammer to bow-without-hammer
I'm comparing rail without to bow without
obligatory have you tried dash attack
i know you are, i'm just saying, the rail and the bow do different things in being ranged weapons
there's also that, yes
also end of the day opinions
I don't know I just feel the bow doesn't fit a niche very well
my most fun runs have been bow when I've gotten some fun hammers, but without hammers I have more consistency with rail
what are the best things to get the boons, hammers, or poms
Do we have any hints on what the next weapon is?
not yet, i believe
possibly something heavy
olympian grenades
I would love a heavy hammer
cael hammer
no hints, but imo it'll either be a slower melee, or a short-ranged, fast all-in melee
or banne hammer. banne all the enemies
I would love a trinket that increased drop rate of hammers they are so fun if you can get a couple
You can earn one hammer between the first two biomes, and you can earn the second hammer in the third biome. Fun fact, you could potentially hold off on getting a hammer until the third zone, and end up getting more than one hammer within the same biome.
I could have sworn I've gotten multiple hammers in one zone?
you can only get multiple hammers in one biome if you don't get one at all in tartarus/asphodel and then get both in elysium
A new weapon sounds exciting!!
Ummm am I the only one who can't get a handle on the gun?! It's so difficult!!! The constant reloading is cumbersome to me, and I find it difficult to aim with! Tips?? Should I attempt to use it?!
triple bomb hammer upgrade makes the special good, idk how to play with gun attack either
Don’t forget to use your special pretty much any time it’s up
You can attack while launching
as soon as you hear the 'can't fire' click, dash
it'll start reloading automatically
i think... a rapidly applying boon like dionysus or zeus is ideal on attack
remember to aim at the feet/shadow
the quicker attack from Hermes is fun too
that's where the hitbox is
I like dionysus on rail main fire
then if you get the infinite ammo
its so much fun
I like Art on the special cause crit nukes
I have a question on how the boon relics work
I know that you aren't guarenteed the boon in the first room and that the next boon you come across is guaranteed to be you're god of choice, but if the first room is the god of choice
does the next boon also go to that god as well since random first room?
No, it shouldn't
The keepsakes just guarantee that the first time RNG rolls a singular boon for you in a standard room, that boon will be for the god you want
hermes boon rng works differently so hermes sometimes appears before other god boons, and god trials also aren't bound by the keepsake
I know that in the starter room you could get a different god than your keepsake
I think its interesting how the rng works
like I've been playing around with the seed I got which was a god first room, with normal special up epic dash and rare wrath
and switching the keepsakes changed the god but kept those three attributes
what are the odds on rerolling doors
like what is/is not availabe to get on a reroll,
I know that boons normally become a different boon
but are boons in the list for rerolling on say a key door?
Sparrow made a chart
Where would I find taht?
There is some shops that can be rerolled though
One last question is there a list of the duo powers and the pre-reqs for them, so far ares athena's little "infinite" doom power is my favorite
I finally beat area 3
Thes and Mino are so hard lol
I got epic artemis special and dionysus heroic attack for rail
plus a handful of other things
No but they let it slide to avoid the paperwork
With nintendo switch lite announced for 199$
I have one question, does hades comes to Nintendo switch? 🤔 It's important
Dio on rail with no reload was messed up. When I'm done with all my errands today I'm aiming for an art bow main fire run
get the hammer shotgun upgrade and artemis attack and/or dash attack -> spam dash attack and watch the crits fly
Wow, Blight Strike with Infinity Chamber is nutty. They're taking max poison at all times.
hey when next patch?
about 40 days away
oh geez
early august, yup
just checked, its 27 now
There we go, that sounds closer.
guys im going to Pergamon today anyone want me to pray to some gods? :')
hoping to get some irl boons
How many days till the next patch?
did the hydra again last time
and this time i was patient
and I WON
with the bow!
which i suck at
i also have like uber poisoning so that might have helped but still
also does anybody know if the poisoning still works when they're impervious?
got murdered by the stupid bull tho QQ
It doesn’t work when they’re impervious aha
Next Hades patch is in 26 days
We should get a bot that just spits out the number lol
I am super looking forward to that update
High Speed Update was a fairly big mix up for a lot of things.
If the next update is to Poseidon what High Speed Update was to Ares then I will be very happy
I was legit about to ask when the next patch is in here.
Im trying 60 Heat Run now, but I always die somewhere in Elysium because of the Archers, its been 3 times already
im also having really really bad luck with my boons ><
some tips against 5+ armored archers at once?
I always make do with any Hammers I find, but I think Rail is like, 30% of max potential without Triple Bomb special
hello, where can i ask game related questions here ?
Here is fine, or in #h1-story-discussion if later game spoilers are involved. What's your question?
thx for answering, my question is if i encountered a bug, bcs i dont seem to get zeu´s boons. i only got him in my sec run in the beginning before i got the journal. and after that i havent seen him again
It's most likely just strange RNG. Gods tend to appear in clusters, too, based on things like duo boons, so if you've been targeting certain gods using keepsakes, etc. then you might be less likely to see Zeus
If you think you have a bug, though, you can report it in-game using F10
so therefore he is the only god in my journal that doesnt show up. i did a trail of the god challenge, fought against zeu´s minions and lost after that i didnt saw him again
so by chosing different "starting gods" i might be able to get him ?
maybe!
so should i do duo boons more often, to mix it up ? bcs i never did one after the zeus one
i was kinda afraid
if you want to!
so there should be no penalty if u screw up again ?
Nope!
nope, no penalty! trials etc. don't affect your relationship with gods
only the quality of boons
Well the penalty is a higher chance of death
yeah but for the gods to not appear in later runs
nope, it doesn't affect later runs at all
i hoinestly didnt play that much kinda grinded it today though, but i only got him once as starting boon, after i died the first time which was probably scripted, screwd up the trails of god against him, and never saw him again -.- i cant imagine that i have that bad rng i saw every other god and have them in my journal
it happens! for real, there are gods i've gone tons of runs without seeing. rng is a mysterious thing
i swear i get tisiphone at least half of the time
have only got tisi for the past three runs
she's the easiest fury so that's nice i guess but let me gift meg dammit
Hey there, quick question, is there any way to block non essential menus like the ability overview while fighting? I just had my first really good run after ~10 tries and nearly defeated the minotaur after killing theseus, but managed to hit tab twice while trying to use the weapon special, which got me killed. Sure, definitely my fault, I probably was to hectic, nevertheless that might help me in the next run.
I recommend changing the keybind for that if it causes too much of a hassle.
because Artemis and Athena look amazing
aphrodite is the ugliest goddess? objectively wrong but ok 
Everyone:
Thirsting over Artemis and Aphro
Me:
Printing pictures of Skelly and pinning them all over my room
You degenerate. I thirst over that one slam dancer I met in room 21 of run 76.
the text says slam dancer but your heart says ballroom dancer
But skelly is a special boy
Exogryph is my one true love
hot exalteds aren't real and they can't hurt me... hot exalteds aren't real and they can't hurt me...
hot exalted: 
😱
😳
me when elysium is released: oh that guy and that bull are pretty handsome surely people will thirst over them
kam and many others somehow: think again
id say it shouldve been branded as the patroclus update but the suprise helped.........
not even thirstwise lol im just talking The Best Part Of The Beefy Update was opening that codex
i'm honestly still so pleasantly surprised the update was called the BEEFY UPDATE
like what a good name haha
remember when we were speculating who mystery arm was...good times
the beef
yknow i was pretty on the nose https://i.imgur.com/SeeCA2x.jpg
only 90's kids remember
(beefy update happened on may 7th)
only may 7th kids remember
if you remember may 7th you qualify for a veteran discount
I started playing in the beefy update. Don't remember how close I was to the 7th though.
My birthday is on the 18. and I am sure I bought the game at around that time
Is there any way to distinguish between the Minotaur room and the big red Orb room if the two next rooms are theirs? There is no way to tell :/
if you remember innate-deflect shield yo definitely qualify for a veteran's discount
that was bonkers shield on release was easily twice as good as the next option (probably spear)
I got one run with Innate deflect shield before it was removed
afaik there's no way to predict which miniboss room you get
it's just a risk you have to take, either avoid miniboss rooms altogether or hope you get lucky
wait, there was auto-deflect for sometime in the game??
a long time ago, shield used to deflect rather than block
a very-very-very long time ago
I know I'm way behind on this, but there's not a single character in Hades besides Tisiphone (who is almost skeletal) and Skelly (who is literally a skeleton) that is not attractive. Like, Zeus is swole as hell and his voice is actually soothing, Athena has cheek bones that are so sharp I'm pretty sure she cuts her hair on them, and you could put Meg's voice with Tisiphone's portrait and I'd still be down.
i could make a really obvious bone joke right now but i'm not gonna
I didn't mean to hit pride at first, but let's do it.
counterpoint to "everybody's hot": poseidon
^
you got me there
I mean,,,
🔫
you cannot make a three foot long goatee hot i'm sorry
Not my opinion, but I know a few people have a thing for Thanatos.
the goatee's gotta gotee
@astral lagoon
Yeah but he’s so bubbly and cool
heh bubbly
poseidon has cool hair and that's literally all you can say for him
at least he isnt crusty
counterpoint: his "liquid justice" line
awful!
i'd rather not think about how there are probably people who think hades is hot
exactly!
Hmm. Yeah
Hmm! Bad.
hmm! thanks i hate it
Zeus has it going on in a weird silver fox way
zeus has just a touch too much mall santa
achilles and pat are a couple so beautiful i started crying
same
if he trimmed his beard, maybe
it's fiiiine
aw i think he looks fine
hey if we're judging hotness i can be as shallow as i want
charon is the hottest 😩
how are we talking about attractive gods and not mentioning ares tho
OK FAIR
ares is the most attractive olympian
we are not talking about does he look fine, we're talking about do i want him to turn into a swan on me
It’s NOT EVEN A QUESTION that dio is the hottest god tho right
OH I THOUGHT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT PAT NOT ZEUS FHDJGKH
fhdjg yeah i dont think zeus is hot
wait were not talking about pat???
dio hot
we were talking about zeus earlier
dio just got his whole booty out
dio's referenced in the subtitle files as "hot dad bartender"
i think pat looks great zeus isnt my time
dio > ares >>>zeus>>>>>>poseidon
extra not my type, since men arent my type to begin with sdjkfghk
i personally prefer dio bc ares is scary
that has no bearing on my opinion of hotness
don't sleep on my boy hermes
I mean!!! fair but dio is like
ares has Some Stuff to work out
approachably hot
HERMES GOOD TOO
hermes is cute ghdkgkh
i prefer ares because he IS scary and inapproachably hot
i'm about to make a definitive male character hotness rank list
he may seem approachable, but consider he will ALWAYS be at parties where the music is just way too loud and you cant hear him well
I don’t trust a guy who hands me unidentifiable blood like that
oh male characters not just male gods? sorry, than has to win
i admit that sadly and with middle school levels of shame
it's okay, we know you have a type,

well than is a god hes just not olympian
yeah sorry thats what i meant fhdjgkh
Than is good but like. His hair shouts anime to me and I can’t get over that
but if someone wants to make that tierlist
his hair shouts anime to me and i love it
chaos is super hot
i think achilles will always take it for me. so green, and i wanna twirl his amazing locks
at least
if we can talk about non gods
- skelly
I'm sorry you're wrong
hjsdfhj orpheus on the hypothetical ranking
orpheus is gonna be SO good
i imagine him as reeve carney from hadestown
so pretty he has to cover his face the world isn't ready
theseus number 2 huh................
onyx.... im not judging..... but any hotness factor theseus does have is overriden by how punchable he is
HYPNOS number 10???? hypnos above PAT???
my words have been twisted
i didn't think a hades character could be too buff but....theseus. theseus is too buff for me
how
its his personality thats too buff
thats exactly it
t.....theseus
i like elegance over bulk okay, graceful sweeping curves
his muscles look like balloons
mood
jan do u think u wont like sisyphus then
as of this moment, this is the only ranking that is in existence
and therefore its authority is unquestionable
😌
someone pls beat me to it
b l e s s
hottest:
- dionysus
- patroclus
- hermes
everyone else
no orpheus? 😔
oops i put half of them in hottest tier
no hypnos 😴
Orpheus has no face :(
Wish there was a cute tier
is aphrodite not hereor am i missing something
fair
can i show my attractiveness triangle i use
you can add your own tiers
OH EXTRA TIERS right
wait how do i add one
the gears
oh thanks
He needs attention
no cerb tho 0/10
illegal
im making a good boi tier
i'm not gonna upload a new picture but put her in wrow tier
just make a tier list where every character occupies their own tier and the tier name is just the characters name
isn't that the codex
For a moment I was like wheres sisyphus but then I remembered 😔
true..
moment of silence for our soon to be hot friends
You forgot to put the exalted in the no tier btw
much to think about

belgo i think you mean forgot to put them in the HOTTEST tier

wait are the exalted hot
No
yes
thats up to you
i haven't looked at their codex entry in a while
hot
I love the "no yes maybe"
No, the Exalted are jerks.
well so is theseus but hes still onyx' top tier pick
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
and the exalted have cool eyes
they have a weird yellow nose though i don't know what to make of it
i mean
therefore theyre hot
they're buff
Theseus actually cares for asterius and thats hot
^
but how is buff naked men with glowy body paint not hot
they have big noses
Theseus is EXTREMELY punchable but him sticking out for Asterius is actually amazing.
Exalted are like HNNNNGH WAR BATTLE and thats not hot
but so is ares
so is ares
and ares is hot
^
Ares is fun about it see
Ares' obsession with war and death puts him off for me.
also @void vigil zag is above thesis statement thank you
approved
it is a crime to have poseidon that high
Whats with the skellyphobia in all these charts
Wait, can I get that link again?
Poseidon still has the bod and swagger
he does N o t have swagger
Oh god, Skelly is the biome 4 boss.
to be fair all the characters in this except bouldy have skeletons, skelly is the only one who is just skeleton so it makes sense for him to be on the bottom
poseidon looks like a creepy uncle
Gratzie.
which he is
No he’s a cool uncle
what's the anatomy of a bouldy
broncle (bro uncle)
broncle is infinitely more terrible
belgo I’m gonna break into your house and eat all your cereal
broncle broseidon...
no
lord of the brocean
stop
hes not crusty thats zeus and hades 😤
he looks like he'd be hot in high school
I think he’s fine except for that liquid justice line and the beard but like,,, that’s still a lot,,,
he was the quarterback who wore the letterman jacket
liquid justice already made him awful
Am I wrong for thinking Dusa is the second cutest character?
no
Dusa is cutie prime
who’s the first
orpheus
Artemis.
my bias for alecto is showing... https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/487892582870024201/599478284450922497/unknown.png
the valid jumped out
ALECTO TOP TIER
alecto top tier gang
i almost thought poseidon wasn't on the list and i was about to applaud you

😔
h hey is that skelly
Put tisi in cute and theseus in hot and thats my chart
...skelly tho
shhhshhh
am I the ONLY one who put Ares in the top tier??? The only one??????
theseus smells like axe probably
i did i think
ares has some stuff to work out
i put him in top tier but then i made a toppest tier above that one
Like, love the hair but I also value my privacy/life
Elysium is just one giant boys' locker room
Ares would be higher if he weren't terrifying.
ok so that doesn’t count if there’s one tier above
yes he IS
The river lethe is just body spray fumes
oh my god. cowards. fools
the river axe
I wanna pin that so bad
do it
athena in between pat and achilles 😔
i'm glad we're all in agreeance that dio and zag are hot bois
This game has to be absolutely wonderful for bi and pan people to play.
wait
Elysium locker room au: patroclus is That Dude whos pretty chill but who stays away from everyone
I did just because.
uh oh uh I just realized we’re in discussion and not spoilers
sorry onyx I had to hit that with a delet
oops sorry
That's my bad, then, it was on my chart.
Rorshach: "Do it!"
More elysium school gym au: theseus and asterius are the two sports dudes everyone wants to team up with and are otherwise impossible to beat
Of course.
Dodgeball captains
theseus beat asterius in football tryouts but wouldn't join the team unless asterius got to join too
"Alright, we got Theseus, we should be able to outrun Aster--OH GOD HE'S FASTER THAN THESEUS."
It's like the cops vs firefighters football bit from Brooklyn 99. Pass the ball to Asterius and watch him part the Red Sea.
Theseus and asterius doing synchronized dancing in the pool
Ok im gonna get back to work before I put too much thought into all that
We better get Asterius to call us Zagreus at one point and hang his autograph in our room.
undoubtedly some controversial opinions in this one
feels wrong to put artemis in a hot tier when that's like the Opposite of what she wants, also aphrodite deserves better than this chart
I guess.
i
you were much more liberal with the no column respect
i have high standards
i'm still too bi for this
ghdjgj
cryptid is a good category for artemis i approve
its rly hard to change the category names on mobile
otherwise i probably wouldve changed more than one
aphro-bi-te
She DOES offer to introduce Zag to men and women.
i'm gonna make a tier list with bdg quotes i can't post it here sorry
BDG?
big d*ck genergy
major himbo with nice jock energy tier
its just achilles
oh! him
it's just achilles
he makes good songs
Has Logan Cunningham sung any songs on any SG games?
the pantheon
Heh, I was singing that at work tonight. Wow.
Well, I want him in Achilles-mode to sing a duet with Orpheus now.
Posted in spoilers with a spoiler, but there's another traditional SG VA who we haven't heard yet and the spoiler is why, I think.
I mean, all evidence points to Theseus being pretty static for his time in Elysium and Achilles changing.
theseus has just gotten more insufferable after death
Ugh, he's the worst.
honestly theseus had his share of bad things happening to him in life
but he has learned no lesson
except maybe be friends with a big bull man
I liked Achilles' thoughts on it (via the Codex, roughly paraphrased): Theseus was peerless in life. The Minotaur was the closest thing he had to a peer.
what’s up with Theseus
what has he actually accomplished outside of one fight with the minotaur
oops forgot a word there
that's like the only thing he's known for
but like what’s the myth surrounding him
okay he's the son of poseidon
he's made a lot of essays
I think he was the first king of Athens.
the minotaur is in a labyrinth and eating lots of human sacrifices, so theseus volunteers as tribute and kills the minotaur
I always thought Herakles was THE hero in Greek mythology but I was perusing Theseus' Wikipedia page after the Beefy Update and apparently Theseus is in contention for #1.
ariadne helps him with the yarn thing so he leaves triumphant with ariadne his new girlfriend
but on his way back dionysus steals his girlfriend and he's so mad that he forgot to change the colour of his sails
I finally made it to the Heroes fight with a Yarn and the dialog didn't trigger.
and his dad thinks that means he died so his dad kills himself
cause before he left dad was like "hey theseus if you make it back alive change your sail colour so i know you're alive"
(mortal adoptive dad not poseidon dad)
and then uhh he has a second wife and a son but they both die for tragedy reasons
and then he did the stupid thing and tried to kidnapmarry persephone
so he lost his butt in hades
wild
and then when he finally got out of the underworld he found that another king has taken over athens
so he runs off to scyros to hide
but the king of scyros hates him and pushes him off a cliff
the end
I didn’t know how the yarn was connected to him but 
thank you
man it’s just a wild ride from start to finish
it’s a lot
oh and if scyros sounds familiar that's also the place where achilles dressed and lived as a girl for a while
guess it's just the hot destination for demigods in hiding
lmao
theseus never learned to drink his respect women juice in life
okay that's my funny summary with a bias towards his jerkness but his portrayal was generally very positive bc he was the king of athens and a lot of these stories came from athens
and if there's anything athenian playwrights love it's writing stories that make athens look good
Now i wonder how Zag would react if he learnt that Theseus once tried to kidnap/marry his birth mother
Teeeechnically he was only an accomplice
But i am never inclined to be generous when it's towards theseus
beat you one too many times at the end of Elysium ? X) ; well even if he was an accomplice, it dosent change much overall. i mean Zag consider him and the bull to be legends when he first meet them, even idolise them a bit before rubbing salt in next encounters comparing Theseus and Herakles, i bet he wouldnt apreciate that last bit of trivia about Persephone
Zag stops idolizing them pretty quickly
One fight later he's like wow theseus sucks actually
Besides zag would probably just laugh himself silly about the butt thing
yea probably
hi yes i have a big thing for thanatos
late to the party https://i.imgur.com/j4MfY6I.jpg
Alecto over meg what’s wrong with you all
personally i aprove of Zagreus being ranked hottest in most categories; literaly, i mean, his feets are on fire XD
So are Hades' feet but we don't talk about Hades' feet
the reason hades is so pissed off is because his butt is on fire constantly
What would the best platform be if you want to write a disagreeing comment to something on the feedback channel?
Aside from just disagreeing with it via emote
Tag them in Discussion or Gameplay, I guess.
@rigid grotto I thought Aphrodite was gonna be number one but whoops Meg's voice. https://gyazo.com/081a46e5c8003cf78ca7021f16811d4d
I think Ven brought it up last night and even though she was originally in the "cute" tier it still didn't feel right.
not putting bouldy above aphrodite
smh
Not ranking Chaos as hottest
You're entitled to your wrong opinion, I guess /j
I dislike Artemis when she is like "Urgh, demigods" when you deny her in a duo boon room.
I find Artemis throwing a temper tantrum and calling you a half breed if you deny her offering hilarious
🍇: i can't believe you would do this to ME i thought we were FRIENDS, i'm going to kill you while i sulk about it
dio is the god I most trust to forgive me for rejecting him
the others obviously harbor some resent ment but Dio? "I'm mad because... because... guess I'm not mad"
Ares is pretty civil over the whole matter as well.
He also shows actual admiration if you survive his well mannered tantrum.
The other gods give you some stupid "slap on the wrist" kind of talk that actually gets on my nerves.
Kinda fits them though
"die puny peon you didn't like my present"
Ares here feels a lot more like the common interpretation of Mars tbh. The stately professional "yes I'm in charge of people killing each other but they'll do it with a bit of civility please" rather than Ares usually being more of a bloodthirsty god that just likes the killing.
(and I actually like that, makes his character more interesting)
ares holding some blood in his hand: i just think it's neat
Also though the best reaction for Dio is to make him upset, and then use his wrath effect in the room.
He goes "Are you serious right now" when you use it and I lost the run due to death by laughter.
those are the best lines
guys, do you think we'll be able to get Hypnos his Minotaur Autograph someday?
I miss having to hoard money to get wallpapers XD (even if they were only two, it was hard at the time to get 500 coins)
I got the autograph just playing through the game. You do have to die to Asterius at least once, I think, so Hypnos will comment on it when you come back through the House. I've forgotten what I did exactly to get it. I just want an Asterius autograph for myself some day. And to ask for it at the Heroes fight so Theseus knows I'm slighting him.
Any news on when the next major update is happening? I don't have internet at home so I lug my PC to work whenever I want to catch up on updates and they said the next biome/update is happening sometime this summer.
I think it's like 35 ish days now
Gotcha, thanks for letting me know!
22 days.
Wait, there’s a literal new biome coming up in a month?
I hope they make Elysium a little bit less annoying by that time
Less than a month.
about 20 days
actually, probably 22. They like to launch on Tuesday, and its monday today. It said 26 last week when I checked later on.
(I could open the game and check but im lazy)
Early August
i agree with that tier list
So do I
Can we get a tier list of which gods to reflect in trial rooms (based solely on their reactions)
hi yall i got hades yesterday so im new so let me know if there is anything i should know:
Bouldy and Sisyphus are the two best characters in the game (I'm only slightly joking) and World Splitter is the best hammer upgrade (I'm not joking)
Can someone share the replay value for when the full game is out?
This is randomly generated but I would need a reason to replay something that's finished
Some other roguelikes I tried didn't have this accounted for and now it's difficult to get into them
If something like that has been shared here by SG Games
World Splitter is very good, but I wouldn't say best outright.
It changes your sword combo to a single overhead chop for 80 damage.
It works well with high additive bonuses since WS has such high base damage.
As in, just +% damage as opposed to the actual magic buffs gods give?
I'm not sure I follow.
Normally I play off dots and additional damage like poison doom lightning and such
Splitter probably works best with aphro athena and artemis
^
To be fair, EVERYTHING works with crits. Pressure Points and Hunter Mark can be slapped on to literally every build and it will be hugely effective.
Poseidon attack will also work well together, you'll be slapping stuff for close to 200 damage with just a Rare Tidal Strike.
Does Chaos ever have + attack %?
That must be good too
I'm not huge on Chaos Strike boons.
They rarely break 50, and I see them attached to the worst downsides (Stabbing, Shrouded) way too often.
You want straight big damage, go Poseidon, Aphrodite, or Artemis.
Even without boons, World Splitter is an absolutely ludicrous damage output. You can easily output two chops in the same time as the normal three-hit combo, dealing 160 damage as opposed to 75.
idk mate im new to the game
are you talking about athena deflect or the polygonal barriers that appear around zag and enemies at times?
lord poseidon bonus, i just dont get it what it means by saying something like "slamming foes into barriers?"
Knocking an enemy into a wall or the gap between platforms
Flying/floating enemies ignore gap barriers, but still get slammed into walls
i am wondering is there some list of all boons?
There is, on the Hades wiki
👍
Basically, yeah. When knocking enemies into walls/gaps, they take damage and the popup says "Wall Slam" or "Cornered" (something like that), and Poseidon has boons that take effect when that happens
also silly question, anyone tried to succeed in a run with 75 pain level where no heal and maximum damage from foes?)
podeidon has a strong weird uncle vibe
the og weird uncle
absolutely
weird uncle of all weird uncles
poseidon is the uncle who tells you uncomfortable storys he insists are funny but youre so sure he could kill you if so desired you laugh anyway
zeus is the cool uncle who you end up thinking is actually really creepy years later
YEAH
the rich uncle
Kinda of a question, If this will be available on Steam, could we somewhat transfer our game?
or impossible
?
I think the save will carry over, if it's the same computer? but that may or may not change
I mean if we have to buy it again x)
The save file should be compatible with steam if you chose to rebuy it
"prophecies have a way of catching up with you" cause of death: falling tortoise
probably the hardest I've laughed at any of the shades so far
I do wonder, was putting Hades on EGS a deal, or a choice? For as much as i support SGG, i am less and less interested in the game because of WHERE it is, up to the point of being off-put playing it. Currently, i didn't even buy it, if i am to believe my purchase history on EGS.
hi
on a le droit de parler Français?
People here speak a lot of languages! You can chat in any language you want, but English is the default.
ok thank you gyus
what do the presents next to the hearts in the codex do? do they just indicate ur when u give ur first gift to them
||It indicates when on the track they give back to you. For everyone so far save one, that's the first gift you give them. The exception is Hades, who only has one heart so far and doesn't gift back.||
I'm pretty sure it was a deal, like every other exclusive access title on the EGS. (In response to Maieath)
They've stated they want to include Steam (check #hades-faq ) in the platforms supported when the game fully launches, so if the EGS isn't your thing, no worries, it won't stay exclusively on the EGS forever.
I expect Hades will likely have console releases as well, as it has controller support and Supergiant has a good history of getting their games onto consoles.
@drowsy karma
Guys when was the next patch dropping again?
Could check myself but I'm in a hurry
*check it
early august
♥
if the next update is the 4th biome are they planning to include the ending or nah
Probably not. I've been in the Slay the Spire EA and they didn't have the ending until release
they said theyd leave the majority of plot stuff for just before release/after release
does anyone have an issue installing the game on the epic store? it downloads like 100 megs in a second, and then...just stops downloading
Hades c'est bien!
“they said theyd leave the majority of plot stuff for just before release/after release” - are you telling me this isn’t even 50% of the plot
I can’t wait
god i'm so ready for more lore
Hey, wanted to clarify that we've stated the full ending of the game will be in the full release. You should not expect 'the majority of the plot stuff' to be added then, since from our perspective there is already a lot.
We are definitely planning for there to be new content in the full 1.0 release, with the full ending and what happens around it. Please let me know if you have any questions about this.
👍
Sounds excellent to me.
Yo, I was wondering where i can report of a function in Hades that seems like an incorrect interaction that is real minor, but still annoying? I haven't seen anywhere i can do that reading through the channels
You can use F10 in-game to report bugs!
np!
I sent it in but I didn't have a screenshot because its an interation with attacking and dashing. is that alright?
okay gotcha
hi
Hello
5run = discover 2boss
me:finally i beat aphosdel now the game can end
game:SCREW THAT HERE IS ELYISUM HAHAHAHAHAAHH
me:but why why WHYYYYYYYYYY
that is an accurate representation of me in the game
wait til the 4th area comes around
I’m scared for what the final boss is
It's me.
I'm the final boss.
Oh yeah, apologize. That should have went into #h1-story-discussion
i hope it’s hades just so i can beat him up over and over
I want the boss to have some true story relevance
Meg so far is the only boss in the game that Zag has an actual connection with.
The Hydra is a mute and the beefy duo is just there to be annoying.
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
I feel like the Olympian gods will eventually turn against you and you'll have to beat them at the end
Hello
what engine does Hades uses?
I'm beginning to think that Hades might be inspired by greek mythology, everyone. Not sure yet

you don't say
guys I have a question when is odin being added to hades 
thor boons when???
thats the hammer, obviously
i wanna grab a nick cage ya dont say meme
pyth
Cranky old bull
make ya sorry for what you’ve done

@half surge ohh own homebrew, maybe it's why I can't make it to run under Linux. The openGL runs much better on Linux than windows.
You guys ever get offered an Epic and two Duos from a single Boon?
Dionysus. Low Tolerance and Scintillating Feast.
ah neat
Hey, do you think Zagreus understands what basic first aid is or growing up when he got mildly wounded he just. Died
does he have any sort of healing power
he's a god so he's automatically made of tougher stuff than mortals
I mean tru but like... if he broke an arm would he wait for it to heal or would Hades just be like “I’ll do you one better” and kill him on the spot
Nyx just gets him a happy meal and he's fine
Doesn't--doesn't necromancy tend to not bring people back like you want them?
. . .
you weren’t using that soul anyways
"Sparky! My long-lost dog is back from the dea--aaand she just wagged her tail off."
there’s still like 90% to love!!!
😂
Hi everyone. One question, in the feedback channel, what's the difference between the thumbs down and the cross?
The feedback types are described in the rules post pinned in the feedback channel
In short. Thumbs down is a more "I don't agree/I haven't experienced this"
The X is for if you think the feedback isn't applicable, or doesn't follow the outlined rules/guidelines for feedback.
If I could ask for one
Only One Thing from the next update
It would be an "Asterius Autograph"
yknow what i agree
also Im reallyreallyreally hoping they add Apollo next
there's so many possibilities and potential!
Archery/Músic/Healing/Disease/Profecy
Apollo has a bunch of areas!
it’d be cool to see jens take on the fates
Imagine a boon that you get 1/2/3 (Common/Rare/Epic) HP for every enemy you kill, or every enemy you kill with a Crit
I know it sounds really OP at first, because HP is usually dangerously low all the time (I play with Damage on 500% almost always) it kinda balances out, you're not gettig full healing back and not even getting back the ultra damage you just took, just small drops back into the life bucket
who's jen?
Jen zee! She’s the lead artist
ohh
I really like her style
I just didnt know her xD
Atlas, to address your comment in feedback, Asterius becomes invulnerable at 50% and 25% HP during the Heroes fight.
for a full second?
i think the invulnerability for all bosses is for the remainder of their current attack and a short switch after it(into next phase)
so if the boss just started a really long attack it may take a while
^
Asterius and Theseus can stand around for a while not really doing anything, but it's at 50% for Theseus and 50 and 25 for Asterius every time.
Hello!, I do not know if this is the right channel, and I don't mean to spam, but, have the guys from Supergiant noticed that a few games on the Epic Store have Cloud Save now?, is there a chance that they put this feature in the store soon? (I also don't want to be mean or asking to rush things, just wondering, I can wait. I'm using dropbox in the mean time lol)
Cloud saving has been on Epic's roadmap for a while, so I'm not surprised it's starting to roll out; not sure about when it will be implemented across the platform though.
Is there any ETA for Hades to come out of early access?
Next year sometime
so much love for Hades on twitch right now while lirik is streaming it
Ohhhhh thanks for the tip!! 👂
Link? I'd love to watch a vod if there is one
Is the new update going live next or the week after? I couldn't remember 
@olive jungle thank you!
If we’re following the usual release I think we get a little who’s that Pokémon release this week though
oho that's right 
villain of the week update
This is the final biome (I'm referring to the upcoming biome that will be released soon)
there will be a fourth biome
is there a name for the little bad cells the warriors in elysium spawn?
I think they're called Souls
ah ty
Cells
I call them "Knubs"
Also pretty sure that Zagreus refers to them as "The Juicy Center" every now and then
They’re called “naked shades” internally I believe
One of them shrieks in a really girly voice, telling Zagreus to turn around. He does, the shade respawns, and stabs him in the back.
they should audition for looney tunes lol
mmmm what is the Naked Shade's behaviour?
sometimes they go for their own weapon, sometimes go for one as far away from me as possible
they get on their weapon and respawn a full HP Exaulted something, but that can be stopped with any instance of damage
is that right?
in my experience they get a lot of knockback but once they've latched on to their weapon they don't let go
once they start that spinning animation you gotta kill them right away
and in the boss room with the Big, Lorge, Butterfly Orb in the center,
the naked shades just keep coming until you've killed it or they have a fixed number/auto respawn time
i think they go for their own weapon it's just that sometimes they fly halfway across the field from where their weapon is
yeah they respawn in that room
oh, ok
exalteds don't path around traps so sometimes they die off screen
From my experience, the souls stop spawning after killing the soul catcher
souls can go after any weapon, not just their own
From my own experience as well, sometimes they don't go for their own weapon.
I'm pretty sure ive seen a Strongbow get disarmed, and then start going for a Shield instead.
Not sure though, would need to test
Pretty sure that's true, they are not married to using their own weapons.
You can also observe during the big soul catcher fight.
The knubs spawn, without a weapon initially, they go for one and sometimes, if they arive and you disrupt their respawn, they will go for another weapon.
so essencially knubs (loving the name) go for whatever weapon they find and turn into that
I usually dont like the Soul Catcher Boss one bit, I always preffer the minotaur if I can have it
like
it has 10 trillion HP, does not move, gotta avoid all tiny almost invisible (to me) bitterflies (I still dont understand their hitbox) while trying to kill the knubs and exalteds
I went to Elysium about 4 times before realizing the butterflies are evil incarnate
Hmm usually with a decent build I can kill the orb before too many exalteds start spawning
Area attacks take care of the butterflies
Soul Catcher isnt bad if you've got sick effects
Even low-damage sick ticks make it fairly easy to defeat. Just keep the sick up, and dodge exalted for a minute.
I honestly think both of the fights are fairly manageable
I think the difference is simply that the fights play literally the opposite from each other. I find the Minotaur to be a very long and endurance fight, you simply more have to "survive" as you whittle down his health bar.
I think the Elite Soul Catcher is very much of a "who kills who first" encounter where eventually you'll be drowning in enemies and unable to do anything and will just get wombo-combo'd to death. So the 2 fights require drastically different mentalities and based on which you'd prefer, that skewers which one you find easier.
I do think the Minotaur is always my preferred fight though since it makes Theseus easier.
so far Ive defeated all 3 furies, the minotaur and the bone hydra without getting hit once at some point
I feel really really smug later, like-
couldnt even touch me, pleb
When against Theseus&Asterius I try to only dodge Asterius and give him some free hits but I focus my damage almoat entirely on Theseus,
hes enfuriating to fight against
like, hes very easy to hit with Specials, but hes just annoying, and when he calls for a god, the battle is 3x1
does anyone have tips against Theseus?
Play around the pillars
I actually disagree on that one tbh.
If you're good at the Minotaur fight, Theseus inflicts way more damage and sustains himself much better, taking him out first means you don't have to deal with his increased attack speed with the god attack and the chariot
You have to be pretty good at the Minotaur fight though for that to be worth it. If you can find yourself keeping enough distance from the Minotaur or able to easily dodge him, then I recommend focusing as much damage into Theseus as you can as fast as you can.
I never ever ever recommend attacking them both equally though. Dealing with both of them under 50% is a hassle, and you should avoid that as much as you can, the amount of projectiles the 2 will create is pretty high. Pick whoever you're more comfortable focusing, and focus them hard.
But for a more in fight tip, play around the pillars. You can use them to dodge Theseus's main attack and to throw off the Minotaur charge. Always be within range of a pillar you can dash to if you need to quickly. (One that would shield you from Theseus or one that would throw the Minotaur off.)
Also, be very very careful when trying to get close to Theseus. Respect his melee attack (his spin to win let it rip beyblade move). Its devastating, even after it was nerfed to hell and back.
One thing I've seen Theseus do a couple times is the Bull will toss/charge him in a direction (the dash like attack) and then he'll land near you, and then try to do that melee spin if you're close enough, definitely watch out for that
(spongebob captain voice) are you ready for next week
no
aaaaaaaa
@low phoenix I like to use an artemis build with damage when casts fall out, or a poison build with the gun - infinite chamber or piercing + a second god boon (aphrodite, ideally, to get the duo) means you can get ticks of 90+ twice a second on either boss. Shield + whatever, sword + poseidon or gun + aforementioned are my most successful
thanks, Patricia!
just tried the bow, gotta say, i enjoyed it much more than i thought i would
Takes a while to get used to.
I also believe that it probably controls a bit better on Contzroler
Hey people, when is the new hades update?
Like major patch thingie on main menu screen

A DOGGO
OH NO
so hey based on the patches ere this seems to be pretty far along. any chance it'll leave early access soon D:
that looks like a twoheaded dog
looks like a horse
oh gods it's happening
I don't feel the push for going for the inferno thingies
does cerberus have a brother
Oh no, the update comes out 2 days before an exam, and Im going on vacation right after that
