static wadi
#

for loooong time

brisk trail
#

^

#

My feelings exactly.

#

I think the game has a big potential.

#

@jagged bloom Epic.

jagged bloom
#

ok

#

does anyone play on steam?

static wadi
#

me

brisk trail
#

I just maxed out the attack percentage, 50% though feels okay for what it's worth, would love to be able to maximize it though.

static wadi
#

i waited so long for steam

brisk trail
#

I do.

static wadi
#

when i tried it and understand

#

this is what i want

jagged bloom
#

@brisk trail can you bind your keys to M4/5

brisk trail
#

Ah, I am not sure, didn't messed with the keymaps, I am using my PS4's controller.

jagged bloom
#

oh, can you try?

brisk trail
#

When you say M4/5, can you help me, please? You mean the numbers?

#

Mouse thumb buttons.

#

you can

#

i use that for cast/reload

#

Ah the mouse thumb? I only have a basic mouse with only two random buttons on the left.

#

lol

jagged bloom
#

for some reason it hasn't worked for me

brisk trail
#

I've got Reload on the rail on a mouse thumb.

#

@jagged bloom check your mouse's drivers, mught be the issue

jagged bloom
#

but it only seems to be a problem with Hades(also idk how to check)

brisk trail
#

by looking at the lastest version on the manufacturer's website and comparing it to the one you have installed

#

and that's weird! it worked with no other input on my part

jagged bloom
#

ok, it's up to date, also the last line you wrote didn't really read well

static wadi
#

that was rly close

#

and it's only 1 lvl heat

jagged bloom
#

i've gotten to 8 heat so far, which modifier did you use?

static wadi
#

blue heart

jagged bloom
#

ok

#

i feel like the worse one is the the one that reduces money and health gains

ivory remnant
#

for me, the worst will always be the time limit one

jagged bloom
#

(which is why i never use it)

#

i feel like i can only go on the first level of the timer

ivory remnant
#

but the health one is a close second

lean dome
#

does "Marked" status (victim has a higher chance of taking Critical damage) affect all attacks? even those that do not have critical chance to begin with?

jagged bloom
#

yes

#

i think

lean dome
#

oh nice!

jagged bloom
#

from what i've seen, yes

lean dome
#

i see thanks

static wadi
#

yes it is

jagged bloom
#

i had a fate listed that required me to get flurry jab, for some reason i decided that it would make sense to use the spin attack aspect

static wadi
#

Fated list just made for you try all aspects of the game)

jagged bloom
#

ik

#

if it wasn't for the list i wouldn't have seen how good crit builds can be

static wadi
#

i wonder

#

what aspects can devs add

brisk trail
#

So, there were six gods in the Titanomachy, right? Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Hera, Hestia, and Demeter. Each weapon has one of those gods for an aspect except for Demeter.

jagged bloom
#

i guess so

#

we do have a chaos aspect in the game also

static wadi
#

i mean no names

#

but what will they do

#

we have usually aspect for cast

#

aspect for Q

#

and basic aspect which can be use in any build

jagged bloom
#

hmm

static wadi
#

so which may be 4th?

brisk trail
#

dash aspect?

jagged bloom
#

you may be confused between a boon and an aspect

brisk trail
#

nah

jagged bloom
#

not you?

static wadi
#

dash aspect? seems

brisk trail
#

sword has a cast and special aspect, spear has a special and unique aspect, shield has a special and unique aspect, bow has a special and cast aspect and rail has a special and unique aspect

jagged bloom
#

hmm

#

i see

brisk trail
#

unique referring to charged attacks for shield/spear and reload for rail

jagged bloom
#

wait, are these labelled in game?

static wadi
#

yeah rail and spear has no cast

brisk trail
#

no

#

i was just clarifying my personal nomenclature

jagged bloom
#

ok

static wadi
#

also new bow may be apollon

#

he was a famous archer god as i remeber

#

also i'm surprised we dont have Gefest yet

brisk trail
#

4 aspects for 6 weapons will really bump the blood costs to unreasonable levels tbh

#

hoping there'll be a currency rework sometime before release

static wadi
#

may be

jagged bloom
#

they could add more fated list things

brisk trail
#

i mean

jagged bloom
#

cause there are 2 that give 10, i think

static wadi
#

they will

brisk trail
#

it's already 180 blood for 3 aspects on 5 weapons

#

the fated list rewards are just not enough unless you give them out constantly or really bump up the values

static wadi
#

and 1 for 2

#

well

#

for each run i can get 2 blood

#

for every heat lvl

#

right?

jagged bloom
#

what if they scale the bounty rewards

#

with heat

static wadi
#

u mean for high heat more than 1 blood?

jagged bloom
#

yep

static wadi
#

mbmb

#

each weapon reqired 36 blood

#

so i need beat 18 heat run

#

to urgrade it full

#

right?

#

17*

#

with every weapon

brisk trail
#

ok so currently at 2 bloods per win per weapon per heat level +22 from the fated list you'd need 80 wins at diverse heat levels which would conservatively be 40 hours worth of won runs

#

that's... actually not as bad as i thought

static wadi
#

You will do your runs anyway

#

and u will up heat lvl

#

so u will get this blood

#

not cus u want this blood

#

but cus u want to win more heat lvl

#

and 17 heat is pretty high i guess

brisk trail
#

sure yeah

#

little weird that some aspects can just be used at lvl1 and do what they're meant to do while some others you have to max before they're useful

jagged bloom
#

for example?

static wadi
#

u mean like hera already cool

#

and poseidon should be upgraded

#

?

brisk trail
#

for example yeah

jagged bloom
#

what does poseidon do?

brisk trail
#

although you could probs use poseidon at lvl 1 and be fine with it, the playstyle is different enough on its own

static wadi
#

cast dmg

brisk trail
#

lets you remove casts from enemies when you hit them with your special

#

and buffs cast dmg

jagged bloom
#

oh, that

brisk trail
#

but like chaos shield is pretty worthless at lvl1

#

or the rail aspects

static wadi
#

@brisk trail do u know skelly quest for sword?

brisk trail
#

yeah

static wadi
#

and what will happen if i upgrade it before he ask me?

brisk trail
#

nothing

static wadi
#

ok

#

i dont have enough blood yet(

lament hare
#

That is the one thing I'm trying not to think about - how much game content have I missed by winning or losing at the rate that I am

latent folio
#

@static wadi you'll get about 22 blood from Prophecies

static wadi
#

@latent folio i already had 12

#

and for last 10

#

i'm not as good

latent folio
#

Harsh Conditions?

static wadi
#

to take some pact things

#

i dont know how it called in english

latent folio
#

it's easy

static wadi
#

but it's about all pact

lament hare
#

Like what conversations have I completely missed because I never died to first boss

brisk trail
#

doing a few low heat runs with the conditions you're uncomfortable with will get you there @static wadi

latent folio
#

you just do each condition one by one

static wadi
#

@brisk trail it's problem even only 1 heat

#

with some from list

#

like dmg

#

or something

#

and it's time

#

again

brisk trail
#

just... don't get hit?

static wadi
#

much time

#

sounds easy

brisk trail
#

the time limit can be stressful though, i get you on that one

static wadi
#

noo

#

i mean

#

real life yime

#

it's a lot runs

brisk trail
#

oh aight

#

fair enough yeah

static wadi
#

when i will have holidays

#

or

#

wait

#

not holidays

#

how does it call

#

when u free from work

#

output?

brisk trail
#

Vacation.

#

Holiday is a word that works, too.

static wadi
#

no vacation is long

brisk trail
#

Time off?

static wadi
#

i mean 5 days i work

lament hare
#

Weekends?

static wadi
#

and other 2

brisk trail
#

Weekend.

static wadi
#

it's not actual weekend

#

cus it;s wednesday and thursday

#

all other days i work

#

usually

brisk trail
#

Yeah, but it's your "weekend".

static wadi
#

ok

#

so i'm possible to play only 2 day in week

#

and it will take too much time

#

i will do it of course

#

i hope

lean dome
#

if i apply one stack of poison with basic attak (4 dmg/instance) and then another with my special ("Q") which is more damage per instance, what dmg will they take? 2x the biggest, 2x the smallest or 1x of each?

brisk trail
#

one of each

lean dome
#

what if i attack once (lowest poison damage) and then use "Q" 5 times. will i have 1 stack of low poison and 4 of high poison? isn't that just plain worse?

#

than having 5 Q high poison

brisk trail
#

that's trickier and i'm not sure but i do think that's how it works yeah

#

and yeah you mostly want one source of poison if any

lean dome
#

hmm i see, nice info!

brisk trail
#

Higher damage poison stacks will overwrite weaker stacks.

#

I'm not sure how it works when you have more than two kinds, but I've hit enemies with either Blight Strike or Flourish and then popped Dio's Aid and it counted from both damage stacks.

lean dome
#

makes sense thanks a bunch!

static wadi
#

wow

#

i got a comp!

brisk trail
#

what is it?

static wadi
#

||companion||

brisk trail
#

oh, haha aight

static wadi
#

||Tomatos gave me some plushy mouse||

brisk trail
#

...You're meming, right? Than's name isn't coming across as "tomato," is it?

static wadi
#

idk it's sound just funny for me

#

and i think i do not like him

quartz kettle
#

i love this guy!

static wadi
#

he looks like somekinda anime

#

even his personality

#

like some guy who looks cold and angry

#

but he rly cares

#

and so on

#

so much clishe imo

brisk trail
#

if thanatos were an anime character he'd leave before the opening was over

static wadi
#

well i say what i see

#

hm

#

if i charge spin attack

#

and that dash and release it

#

will it have dash attack bonus?

brisk trail
#

no idea

#

No.

static wadi
#

ok thx

#

and hermes attack spped bonus

#

will he affect on spin attack charge time?

brisk trail
#

I don't think so.

#

It might get to the charge-state more quickly, but the charge time itself remains where it is, I think.

static wadi
#

only affected by hammer?

#

ok thx again

brisk trail
#

Yup.

vale pawn
#

Does anyone know if there was a way to transfer EGS Save file to Steam?

#

for Hades

static wadi
#

ask tech

winged holly
#

just bought hades yesterday on egs. I don't usually buy early access games, but the deal was too good to skip on. I'm loving the game so far!

static wadi
#

why not steam

winged holly
#

However, some aspects are a little confusing. I've had a diamond on me for a while (3 deaths?) and I still have no clue what it's for. Also, is there any benefit to giving nectar more than once?

jagged bloom
#

yep

marsh jackal
#

How do you get to the point of giving skelley ambrosia?

static wadi
#

@winged holly 1st u will know later

jagged bloom
#

give him nectar 7 times

static wadi
#

2nd yes

#

@marsh jackal he might give you some quest later

winged holly
#

alright, thanks 🙂

jagged bloom
#

wait..

static wadi
#

@winged holly just keep collecting

jagged bloom
#

is that a spoiler?

winged holly
#

@static wadi because EGS has a $10 coupon, so I got Hades for $10 ($20 - $10)

static wadi
#

u will need it a lot

winged holly
#

yeah, sure

static wadi
#

@jagged bloom about 7 nectar?

jagged bloom
#

yes

static wadi
#

mbmb

#

i didnt count

winged holly
#

also it looks like it's possible max the mirror of night. what do you do with darkness after that point?

jagged bloom
#

you need a lot

winged holly
#

just trade it for other resources?

jagged bloom
#

of darkness for that

#

but yes, there will be no use in the end

static wadi
#

last skill requires aa lot as i remeber

jagged bloom
#

the upgrades locked behind the key also require darkness

#

once you unlock it

static wadi
#

1k for 1 step as i remeber

jagged bloom
#

yep

#

then 2 k

winged holly
#

😮

jagged bloom
#

i think it totals to 15k for max

winged holly
#

another question, why is the bow's special so useless 😦

jagged bloom
#

it isn't, i use it for on hit effects

static wadi
#

it's not

jagged bloom
#

like poison

#

or doom

static wadi
#

and u can use hammer upgrade

#

for +4 arrow

jagged bloom
#

also if you're next to an enemy you will destroy it

#

cause all 9 arrows etc.

static wadi
#

and 2nd one for piercing and armor

lyric frigate
#

With seeking buff it's pretty useful

jagged bloom
#

they won't have that yet

#

even without it can be useful

static wadi
#

dont tell him about aspects

winged holly
#

I feel like the blade's special is a lot more powerful (even when unupgraded)

drowsy fable
#

bow with artemis special buff is insane

winged holly
#

bow does a max damage of 90 to a single enemy, when at point blank

#

blade can do 50 to multiple enemies in greater range

static wadi
#

but sword is melee

jagged bloom
#

blade can't stack effects

static wadi
#

in later lvls melee fight is much harder

jagged bloom
#

you can get full 5 poison in 1 special

#

or with that one doom effect stack 9 on doom

winged holly
#

well I've only reached elysium so far, and that was once

#

(and with the bow)

jagged bloom
#

or is that one boon capped?

drowsy fable
#

also you can take out whole enemy groups with artemis bow special

winged holly
#

but I was hardly ever using its special

jagged bloom
#

try and get the wine guy's upgrade with the bow

drowsy fable
#

you've gotta build it right, methinks

static wadi
#

anyway i prefer shied for any weapon

jagged bloom
#

shield is OP imo

static wadi
#

easiest for some dumb guy like me

lyric frigate
#

Wall slamming is kinda fun lmao

static wadi
#

PRESS ATTACK KILL EVERYONE

jagged bloom
#

it's hard to die with that thing

static wadi
#

take no hit

#

especially with athena dash

jagged bloom
#

btw, what keepsakes do you use

static wadi
#

me?

jagged bloom
#

yep

static wadi
#

i usually start with coins

#

2nd and 3rd for cosmic

#

and last for spear

lyric frigate
#

Hp buff

#

Cause i suck on Hydra

static wadi
#

hp is good for new players

#

when u learn enemy moovset

jagged bloom
#

hmm, usually start with coins, then go to cosmic for 2 and 3, then end on Acorn

static wadi
#

and learn to dodge it

#

acorn?

#

what is it

drowsy fable
#

blocks boss attacks

jagged bloom
#

block 5 hits

#

of boss attacks

static wadi
#

ah dryads gift

jagged bloom
#

when upgraded fully

static wadi
#

well patrocles good too

jagged bloom
#

what does his do again?

static wadi
#

after u get hit u have shield

jagged bloom
#

oh

static wadi
#

for 1.5

jagged bloom
#

ok

#

that reminds me

#

i've only gotten Athena's divine protection once

static wadi
#

never had it yet

#

there are rly lot of legendary skill i dodnt get

#

and duo

lyric frigate
#

I had legendary perk only once xd

jagged bloom
#

i just unlocked all of them

static wadi
#

omg(

#

styx with only 1 DD

#

not sure i will survive even for last boss

lyric frigate
#

Wish you luck 🗿

static wadi
#

wanted to farm some blood

#

with spear on 1 heat

#

looks like it's not a good idea(

#

Playin Hades aspect

#

Playin with special only

#

am i dumb or am i dumb)

#

i didnt expect that

#

and get killed stepping on banana peel

#

what a shame

marsh jackal
#

Is there a list of what renovations are possible?

brisk trail
#

I don't believe so.

frigid dock
#

What would you guys say is the best weapon, newer player currently addicted

brisk trail
#

Rail or Shield.

teal terrace
#

depends on playstyle

#

I prefer sword

frigid dock
#

Yeah I’m loving the rail rn

flat vapor
#

shield for just overall best, but not by much

brisk trail
#

Rail's got the best damage in the game, but the shield has that sweet sweet mobility and invulnerability.

flat vapor
#

i prefer sword, bow, and rail

opaque nexus
#

Sword and bow have the best aspects for cast builds

#

Which are very powerful

frigid dock
#

Anything I should be pushing towards specific (mirrior upgrades, renovations?) who’s the best gift?

brisk trail
#

Start with mirror upgrades.

opaque nexus
#

Get 1 of each aspect btw

brisk trail
#

Follow Dark Thirst. Don't just glue yourself to one weapon, learn how to use all of them.

#

Greetings, I apologize for asking a second time, someone above already was kind enough to answer to me, but I want to make 100% sure, is the early access going to become the full game should it gets finalized/finished? Or we have to buy the game again?

#

You do NOT have to buy again.

opaque nexus
#

Don’t see why you would have to buy it again

#

They want to reward early access players lol

#

Not punish them

brisk trail
#

People sleep on Achilles Aspect. Sure, it's not quite as easy-to-use as Poseidon, but it's the biggest damage boost in the game as far as Aspects are concerned.

frigid dock
#

You don’t have to buy again

brisk trail
#

I am a stranger to early access games, even though I am an old gamer and a guy that been playing for years, I never touched early access games before. I did it now because my gf got it for me as a gift and because I trust the devs since Transistor was really lovable. I just am anxious if we have to pay again to buy the full game and the early access gets locked/deleted or something.

#

Call me paranoid.

#

Okay, thank you for the answer!

static wadi
#

i believe in SGG

brisk trail
#

I've heard of that happening before, but truth be told the only two games I've ever really played in EA were Nuclear Throne and this, and both times I did not have to re-purchase the game.

#

I am confused, EA is doing the game?

#

I thought it was the creators of Bastion and Transistor?

#

And Pyre.

#

"Early Access"

#

ah lol

#

mb

#

Aaand just had a Hammer offered in Styx.

#

< Too old, don't mind me. Thanks a ton.

opaque nexus
#

Thank god EA doesn’t own this

brisk trail
#

Yeah...it wouldn't be the same game, that's for sure.

opaque nexus
#

Buy 5 Titan blood

#

Buy darkness

brisk trail
#

Only Titan Blood that appears in-game is in Charon's shop.

opaque nexus
#

You have to get aspects in loot boxes

brisk trail
#

Aspects would have been held back until after release.

opaque nexus
#

Random chance

brisk trail
#

I agree, Micolash Cage, you're right.

opaque nexus
#

Yes

#

Bloodborne goat game

brisk trail
#

^

static wadi
#

charon and broker

brisk trail
#

See now, I knew you would get me, saw your avatar and was like "This guy is a Bloodborne player."

#

lol

frigid dock
#

Who should I be gifting?

brisk trail
#

Ideally, everyone, but start with the characters you like.

#

Same question here, too, I personally gifted Nyx, Hades, Skelly, Megaera, and Charon.

frigid dock
#

I gifted my dad but he still hates me 😢

brisk trail
#

^

#

I think he needs 2 gifts.

#

To give you smth.

#

Maybe.

frigid dock
#

Greedy ass

static wadi
#

rly?

frigid dock
#

Didn’t know you could gift smelly

brisk trail
#

He's like, the only actual guy that doesn't want you to leave. lol

frigid dock
#

Skelly

static wadi
#

did u get anything from him?

brisk trail
#

I got like a heart increase.

#

I think.

static wadi
#

)

frigid dock
#

I got that from cerbs

brisk trail
#

But that's it, and it felt very "quick" and simple, wasn't even a deal.

static wadi
#

there are lot of... people

marsh jackal
#

I would gift skelley free death defiance can make a newer players run much easier

static wadi
#

who want you stay

#

@marsh jackal Cerberus good too

#

Dusa

#

Nyx

frigid dock
#

Ooo that’s good to know

static wadi
#

Tomatos

brisk trail
#

True, but like, they wouldn't mind if you manage to leave, like, while Hades himself is like really not wanting you to leave. lol

static wadi
#

no

marsh jackal
#

Skelleys death defiance while maxed is 150hp which is more than half the health I typically have when I finish runs

static wadi
#

Nyx mb

#

but Tomatos rly want u to stay

frigid dock
#

Tomatos?

static wadi
#

Tomatos

brisk trail
#

Is it Skelly's ? The defiance?

frigid dock
#

Who that?

brisk trail
#

Don't remember, I thought it was something like masochistic with more enemies.

#

I liked Nyx's gift.

static wadi
#

Anime Guy with Scythe

brisk trail
#

And Cerberus.

spare token
#

Yeah Noel, the Lucky Tooth (Death Defiance) Keepsake is from Skelly

brisk trail
#

Oh

frigid dock
#

I use Cerberus’s 24/7

marsh jackal
#

Yeah skelleys gift is death defiance

brisk trail
#

Can this stack with your passive DD?

#

Yup.

static wadi
#

i usually start with coins from hypnos

brisk trail
#

Oh man

marsh jackal
#

Yeah you would have max 5

brisk trail
#

Like, die one time, and revive and die one more time and revive again?

marsh jackal
#

4*

brisk trail
#

Dang

static wadi
#

and take egg for later

marsh jackal
#

Skelleys is the last used death defiance

flat vapor
#

it functions like a death defiance, except it gives you a (pretty high) set amount of health

static wadi
#

@marsh jackal chaos can give you DD too

brisk trail
#

So, you get like 3 on your own through passives + 1 from skelly.

flat vapor
#

always used last as well

brisk trail
#

Good to know actually.

static wadi
#

extra DD

marsh jackal
#

It’s been a while since I saw chaos DD i forgot about it

static wadi
#

i never saw it tbh

brisk trail
#

Now you said chaos, the shield was okay but felt a bit meh for me.

#

Bow was good and sword.

#

Spear really nice and broken but weird in some movements.

#

Some enemies*

#

Have to git gud against Elysians since they are giving me troubloe.

#

trouble*

marsh jackal
#

Honestly I can make every weapon work except sword unless I get a strong cast build

static wadi
#

sword is hardest weapon to handle imho

#

and spear

#

spear at least has more range

#

and long range special

opaque nexus
#

I am sword gang

static wadi
#

so it's a BIT easier

brisk trail
#

In my case, I had it really good with the sword having on my special Dionyssus poison+Herme's Speed, and on light attack Dionyssus poison + Herme's Speed again, and Ares' blades for dash.

static wadi
#

but sword is pain for me

brisk trail
#

This really became even better when I got lvl2 on special with wider range.

opaque nexus
#

I’m used to slow strong weapons

brisk trail
#

But I still died.

marsh jackal
#

Swords range is so short and the third auto last time I checked locked you out of dashing out

brisk trail
#

True

static wadi
#

even sword should have one of the strongest cast build

brisk trail
#

I went with the second sword with hitting special once is giving you like critical increased

marsh jackal
#

So I usually just get chipped everytime I use third auto cause I don’t use it at the right times

opaque nexus
#

Nemesis gang gang

brisk trail
#

But will prob stick with Bow or Gun

#

I liked the ranged.

opaque nexus
#

Not a huge fan of any other weapon besides rail

brisk trail
#

Is rail the gun?

static wadi
#

rail may be very different

#

shotgun

#

rifle

#

rocket launcher

#

mortar

#

and so on

brisk trail
#

BIIIIG AMMOOOOO.

#

Ah, yeah, okay so it's the gun.

#

Like, the more "gun" like.

#

I've noticed the mortars and shotgun and stuff.

#

Looked cool, still haven't tried it in action.

Rail has so many options

#

All aspects are at least decent, lots of hammers completely change how it plays

marsh jackal
#

Rail can be sniper too

opaque nexus
#

Rail is the latest weapon to be added right

marsh jackal
#

I love sniper rail when you get a high % damage boost from artemis, aphro, poseideon

brisk trail
#

There is one more empty slot.

#

But I am not sure if we get new wep now.

marsh jackal
#

Yeah rail is the most recent

opaque nexus
#

Isn’t there more than one empty

#

Isn’t it like 3

marsh jackal
#

Yeah there’s one empty

static wadi
#

well

opaque nexus
#

We still have the 4th aspect for every weapon to look forward to as well

static wadi
#

it has been a while

#

btw

#

about 4th aspect

marsh jackal
#

I really don’t like the aspects

brisk trail
#

What's the maximum res increase? 50% ?

#

Played it on normal mode and switched to GM.

static wadi
#

what do u think they will be

opaque nexus
#

Aspects are cool but pretty unbalanced compared to each other

static wadi
#

most of weapon have Q aspect and Cast aspect

marsh jackal
#

Possibly auto attack changes/charge changes?

static wadi
#

and for the last one

marsh jackal
#

I feel like unless you get an aspect maxed out it’s almost always inferior to base version

opaque nexus
#

If weapons aspect were as balanced as rail’s that would be cool

marsh jackal
#

And then doin’ that is like 15 titans bloods

brisk trail
#

No idea about the fourth Aspects, but I'm preeetty sure we're going to get a scythe with Thanatos and Demeter Aspects.

static wadi
#

some aspects dont need to be maxed out

#

like hera

opaque nexus
#

Poseidon

static wadi
#

and some - must

brisk trail
#

Nah, you want the damage from Poseidon.

static wadi
#

like hiron or poseidon

opaque nexus
#

Poseidon is in between actually

marsh jackal
#

Then I happened to start maxing the ones that probably need to be maxed

brisk trail
#

I take it about Dionysus to give us such a good poison buff.

#

Stacking poison like 4-5 times on enemy/boss is just evil. lol

ruby zenith
#

Oh yeah

#

It's kind of gross in the best way

static wadi
#

u just need proper weapon for that

brisk trail
#

I love games with exploiting weaknesses to enemies and just wrecking them. Always going for OP stuff.

#

I am not a fan of rogue games, but this one is likeable and epic.

#

You still get to keep darkness collected and upgrade yourself a bit.

static wadi
#

some upgrade price make me sad(

ruby zenith
#

Hades tickles my brain in the same way that Dead Cells does in that it's less about what I have and more about ehat I can do with it, it that makes any sense

brisk trail
#

Same, but it's understandable, in a way, GZNM, since it would be too easy/over fast with lower prices.

static wadi
#

@brisk trail but 5k gems!!!!

brisk trail
#

Kind of did, Mojo, yeah.

static wadi
#

dead cells was too hard for me

brisk trail
#

I just didn't liked games like slay the spire and darkest dungeon.

#

Hated those.

#

But Hades is different in a good way.

ruby zenith
#

That's fair.

static wadi
#

@brisk trail did u play TBOI?

ruby zenith
#

But I feel like Darkest Dungeon at least tells you upfront that you are in for a bad time.

brisk trail
#

I am lost TBOI?

#

The Binding of Isaac.

ruby zenith
#

Just goes "This is about making the best of a bad situation. You cool with that?"

brisk trail
#

It does, Mojo, it's just, it's still bad in my opinion. If I want just a challenge and to venture deep, I would return to SoulsBorne games.

#

No, I haven't played TBOI then, but I saw the story on YT.

#

Interesting concept.

static wadi
#

i cant say it's similar to Hades

ruby zenith
#

I could not gel with Issac because it sort of felt like the RNG of that game was a little too strong for my liking

brisk trail
#

It feels more like Undertale.

static wadi
#

oh no undertale

#

that was rly hard for me

#

quit so fast

brisk trail
#

Which I also haven't touched. Something with attacking and dodging with my own life on the line against millions of sharp attacks and fangs and explosions and shurikens just doesn't make me feel willing or confident.

#

I liked the player who actually destroyed the game though.

#

Top player.

opaque nexus
#

I made a bunch of dumb mistakes

#

But I’m over it

#

I’ll have enough blood to max what I want at some point

ruby zenith
#

I feel like I'm at the point where I still struggle to get blood consistently

brisk trail
#

About Hades?

ruby zenith
#

So far I only have an upgrade each on the shield and the spear

#

Yeah

brisk trail
#

So far I am happy that at least Nyx is giving you the option to respect skills.

#

On the mirror.

#

Would like something like this for blood.

ruby zenith
#

That would be a godsend

#

(Pun not intended)

brisk trail
#

Since, I did the mistake of giving one to my first sword and then 2 more on my second sword...

#

I thought it was all for the same sword.

static wadi
#

i just maxed my rifle with blood)

brisk trail
#

Would really love to be able to respec blood, I am sure I did my mistakes, too.

#

At least skills can be, and that's cool.

static wadi
#

well u will have it later

brisk trail
#

You think the devs will be so kind to add that?

static wadi
#

i unlocked all aspects

#

what?

brisk trail
#

I mean the weapons.

#

Titan Blood reallocation?

#

That we upgrade with blood.

#

I think? Unless you guys were talking about another blood.

#

And I got confused lol

static wadi
#

Titan blood?

#

u will get some later

brisk trail
#

It must be that, yeah.

static wadi
#

with harder runs

brisk trail
#

Each time a weapon is about to be upgraded, it has this dark shadow.

#

So I gave 1 to the first sword and 2 more on the second.

teal terrace
#

say a wep you have has a current heat requirement of 2 but you put on say 20 heat worth of promises, if you complete that run, does the game just take the goodies from the 3 heat requirement and continues on 4 heat goodies and so on until you hit 20?

brisk trail
#

Then I saw that each weapon has a different version.

static wadi
#

@teal terrace i dont think u will get bountie for ALL 20 heat

#

in one run

teal terrace
#

I mean 1 at a time incrementally

static wadi
#

that should be too easy

brisk trail
#

You do not.

#

Btw, I know I am asking too much, but, anyone here has the full wallpaper from the discord serveR? I love all 4 protagonists from their games together in the pic.

static wadi
#

this one?

#

btw there is no picture of protagonist of Pyre

opaque nexus
#

Being able to respec Titan blood 1 time per save would be fine imo

brisk trail
#

i mean it's jodariel, she's pretty protagonisty

#

Jodi's the closest Pyre has outside ||Volfred.||

#

Yes, thanks so much!

#

GZNM

#

hendryk?

#

My Oblivion friend.

static wadi
#

ah Jodariel. Strenght and Beauty

brisk trail
#

GZNM, isn't that woman with the horns from Pyre?

static wadi
#

yup

brisk trail
#

we need modding tools to replace aphrodite with jodariel

static wadi
#

aphro not even close to her

brisk trail
#

ye

static wadi
#

capricious wayward unstable

#

well

#

like regular woman

#

that why we love them i guess

#

buuut Jodariel is the one who far from regular women

#

oh i'm so glad i have free pyre copy

#

hey i just realised on this wallpaper

rocky flume
#

Hey, would Hades give me 100+ hours of entertaiment ?

brisk trail
#

probably yeah

#

if you enjoy roguelites

static wadi
#

43 for now

brisk trail
#

and/or other sgg games

static wadi
#

still have mood to play

brisk trail
#

56 in under two weeks and i'm still addicted

rocky flume
#

hmm, sounds cool

opaque nexus
#

I only have 10 hours and even though I can’t play it I’ve been thinking about it all through my vacation

static wadi
#

oh my i have to go sleep(

rocky flume
#

@opaque nexus dude you are under addiction , LOL

brisk trail
#

sleep well, good luck tomorrow @static wadi

opaque nexus
#

Next week I’m gonna grind that game

static wadi
#

still 3 days to work yet(

opaque nexus
#

Well that’s a hyperbole

spare token
#

Started playing two days ago and currently have 14 hours

#

This game is kinda addictive...

static wadi
#

:c hot water doesnt turning on

rocky flume
#

well, i think it's gonna be a good game for me

static wadi
#

@rocky flume did u play dead cells?

#

or other SGG games?

rocky flume
#

i played Dead cells, but meeh i didn't like it

#

nope i didn't play any SGG game

static wadi
#

well imo dead cells close to hades with gameplay

brisk trail
#

i don't know that that comparison holds water

rocky flume
#

well, i get bored from games very fast, it's a problem with me

opaque nexus
#

I know for sure hades took inspiration from DC

brisk trail
#

feels more like pyre meets gungeon to me

rocky flume
#

but the rpg thing in Hades , i think it will make me play the game for at least 10 hours.

#
  • it's in Early access
brisk trail
#

the story progression goes on for much longer than that atm

#

about 40 hours i'd say but you still keep finding new bits here and there afterwards

rocky flume
#

oh , sounds cool

static wadi
#

i'm 40 hours for now

rocky flume
#

i played Risk of Rains 2 , but i felt like i found everything after 15 hours, (by everything i mean monsters, not items)

static wadi
#

just opened 1st comp

#

and story with chars is only begins

haughty raptor
#

Hades is that long? im only 4 hours in

static wadi
#

well

#

it depends how good you are

#

and you have to grind it anyway

haughty raptor
#

lmao i got ruined by the hydra so idk how far ill get after i figure that one out

static wadi
#

hydra is 2nd lvl

haughty raptor
#

how many lvls?

static wadi
#

and there is 3rd and 4th

#

for now

#

i hope it's not a big spoiler

haughty raptor
#

oh cool but wow yall sank 40 hours already?

static wadi
#

i wish i could more

#

but work doesnt give me a chance(

teal terrace
#

same

static wadi
#

i waited for 2 things

#

1st - steam

#

2nd - russian

#

now i have both

haughty raptor
#

lmao work has been harder since hades came out

teal terrace
#

what I don't understand is why doesn't my job pay me while I play video games in bed...it's not fair

rocky flume
#

i have the time, but i hope i find a game which deserve my time.

static wadi
#

now i have best gift for new year

haughty raptor
#

sami doesnt like hades?

brisk trail
#

sami hasn't bought hades yet

haughty raptor
#

booo

rocky flume
#

i just purchased it, didn't play it

static wadi
#

he doubts

haughty raptor
#

im looking forward to a perfect achievement collection lmao the game is too fun

static wadi
#

hades as SGG game 1st of all has good story

#

and good music

jagged bloom
#

SGG?

spare token
#

Supergiant Games

jagged bloom
#

hmm

haughty raptor
#

music is great ye but also great to play your own jams while grinding

jagged bloom
#

it's also more replayable than the others

#

i feel

static wadi
#

yes

haughty raptor
#

definitely

jagged bloom
#

i think Pyre is the least replayable out of the 4

static wadi
#

pyre(

haughty raptor
#

after 3 replays i got everything in transistor and i was so sad after

jagged bloom
#

then bastion, then transistor, then Hades

static wadi
#

pyre was too long to replay

#

and i wish it so hard

haughty raptor
#

i still have a little bit left of pyre saving it for after hades

static wadi
#

that type of game where even lose may affect on history in intresting way

haughty raptor
#

what replay value does transistor have? in hades you get so many power ups you can replay way more

jagged bloom
#

i replayed most with all difficulty increasing modifiers

#

transistor allows you to keep the functions you had last game

static wadi
#

well roguelike games BASED on replaying

haughty raptor
#

oh the challenges yea sorry once i ran out of story i stopped i feel like hades gives its content more gradually it forces you to replay longer

jagged bloom
#

and you can stack 2 of the same in the end

static wadi
#

and it's only game here is Hades

haughty raptor
#

zag's voice is really growing on me cant wait to wreck that hydra

teal terrace
#

i don't particularly like zag's voice even now

rocky flume
#

for me, the most important things in rouge-like games are the gameplay and the power ups

teal terrace
#

hades is the best voice

jagged bloom
#

i like his voice

haughty raptor
#

lmao screw hades he dumb

static wadi
#

meg's voice is something

#

and hades for men

haughty raptor
#

i was rly sad i beat meg so easily im missing half her dialogue

static wadi
#

deep and powerful

ivory remnant
#

Than's voice is my fave

#

it's so pretty

static wadi
#

Tomatos?

#

meh

jagged bloom
#

btw, have you tried the poseidon lightning with flurry jab, with 6 dashes

haughty raptor
#

whos than

static wadi
#

Tomatos

jagged bloom
#

you'll see

ivory remnant
#

thanatos

static wadi
#

u will meet him later

haughty raptor
#

thx pioneer will try

ivory remnant
#

eventually

haughty raptor
#

im in love w artemis tho

jagged bloom
#

when i say poseidon lightning i mean that one duo boon

ivory remnant
#

artemis is such a good bean

spare token
#

The personification of death? (Thanatos)

haughty raptor
#

best bean

hexed smelt
#

the personification of being a cutiepie ilu

teal terrace
#

cleaning the sconces intensifies!

jagged bloom
#

i feel like Artemis and Hermes are the only likable Olympians

static wadi
#

@spare token yes Tomatos blonde anime guy with a scythe

haughty raptor
#

lmao thanatos is a cutiepie

hexed smelt
#

he IS

haughty raptor
#

damn pioneer hot take

static wadi
#

@jagged bloom and Dio?

agile fossil
#

been thinking of putting dash on LT button or so. anyone else doing this? Or has a different layout?

rocky flume
#

does anyone know anything about the next update?

flat vapor
#

new olympian

static wadi
#

new olympian

haughty raptor
#

no clue hope it has them achievements tho

teal terrace
#

what should be the next wep?

static wadi
#

i dont think new weapon will make it soon

agile fossil
#

hope its thanatos glaive or so . that would be sick

static wadi
#

did they promise?

teal terrace
#

maybe a scythe?

static wadi
#

megs whip :3

rocky flume
#

i hope it's something with fast attack speed

static wadi
#

rifle may be fast enough

agile fossil
#

ah jeha was missing the word - scythe

static wadi
#

sword with proper hammer

rocky flume
#

i mean like close-range thing

agile fossil
#

duo daggers

jagged bloom
#

don't like dio

rocky flume
#

@agile fossil gonna be amazing

static wadi
#

daggers seems intrestin

#

but i dont remeber anything from greek myths

#

close to dagger

teal terrace
#

swordchucks

jagged bloom
#

i mean, we already have a gun

static wadi
#

well gun is a gun

#

they at least try to explain it

rocky flume
#

we are talking about GODS they can create daggers.

static wadi
#

yes but we speak about greek mythology

jagged bloom
#

my point is that we're not really that limited

gaunt bane
#

👀 did i miss love thanatos hours in here

jagged bloom
#

as long as it's nothing recent

teal terrace
#

how about a mage staff?

#

cast spells

jagged bloom
#

we already cast spells

#

with that blood stone

#
  • boons
rocky flume
#

what about Kratos's axe?

teal terrace
#

?

static wadi
#

i vote for whip

rocky flume
#

hmm, coming out of the hell with a whip, sounds like a tormented

static wadi
#

meg would be surprised

#

😄

#

also vote for next bow aspect is apollon)

brisk trail
#

Did any Titans use weapons besides Chronos?

ivory remnant
#

ah yes, the greek myth of GUN

static wadi
#

hm

#

i thought

#

Zagreus is pure fantasy

#

but i was wrong

brisk trail
#

Edit of the Hellboy comic: "Is that a Greek god?" "He's got a gun!" [Zagreus opens fire with Exagryph]

teal terrace
#

i want a katana, idc if it's not lore friendly

jagged bloom
#

i think things from the east

#

seem more out of place than the rail

#

somehwo

teal terrace
#

with all of vergil's skillset

jagged bloom
#

how*

haughty raptor
#

i just want a sword with a big dash swing thing like the shield

jagged bloom
#

uh

#

that's not going to happen, probably

haughty raptor
#

sadss

jagged bloom
#

seeing as it's already on the shield

#

also i don't think they'll do 2 swords

static wadi
#

we have aspect

#

1 more

haughty raptor
#

ya aegis the best im sorry i just miss using swords

static wadi
#

of every weapon

jagged bloom
#

aspects don't change is that much

#

it*

static wadi
#

mb

teal terrace
#

so you're saying there's a better chance of having michaelangelo's nunchaku?

static wadi
#

)

#

whip scythe

#

maybe

#

may be not

jagged bloom
#

why not whip sword?

static wadi
#

who said they will add new weapon

jagged bloom
#

the patch notes

static wadi
#

rly?

teal terrace
#

i think it's inevitable

jagged bloom
#

and the empty space

#

next to the rail

static wadi
#

empty space mean nothing

jagged bloom
#

"the patch notes"

static wadi
#

they can remove it easily

brisk trail
#

It kinda does, but SGG has already confirmed a 6th weapon.

static wadi
#

patch notes - yes mb

hexed smelt
#

the roadmap has stated there'll be a sixth weapon at some point for a while now

static wadi
#

i didnt read them so hard

#

what?

#

what is roadmap

teal terrace
#

future plans

static wadi
#

ah ok

hexed smelt
#

if you click the "days until next update" sign on the main menu, you see the roadmap, which basically tells you what supergiant has planned

jagged bloom
#

is it just me or is the thing that costs the most darkness the most useless thing

static wadi
#

@jagged bloom skill rarity thing os cool

jagged bloom
#

not that

static wadi
#

2nd and 3rd from end

jagged bloom
#

fated authority

static wadi
#

well it's random

teal terrace
#

it isn't useless

static wadi
#

and just way to use ur drkness

jagged bloom
#

let me correct myself

#

"least useful"

brisk trail
#

backstab damage is probably worse

jagged bloom
#

nah, that can save you at times

brisk trail
#

I'd say that Fated Authority really only comes into play in 10+ Heat runs.

hexed smelt
#

i will admit, fated authority was more useful when i didn't want the other items so much

#

but now it's like "hey i'll take this anyway and trade it back at the house"

static wadi
#

1:02 :c

jagged bloom
#

also, has anyone maxed out fated authority

brisk trail
#

schpoon has

#

the madman

jagged bloom
#

bruh

gaunt bane
#

lkmsf actually i kinda like the idea of the last weapon being romance-dependent

jagged bloom
#

that's 165k darkness

gaunt bane
#

romance than? scythe. romance meg? whip. romance both? CHAIN SICKLE

brisk trail
#

i knew it was a god of war prequel

static wadi
#

big stone for romance sizif

jagged bloom
#

btw, what's the best adamant rail aspect in your opinion

brisk trail
#

Eris.

static wadi
#

zags

brisk trail
#

is that the reload one? i always get them confused

static wadi
#

no

brisk trail
#

Stand in Special for +% damage for 8 seconds.

static wadi
#

reload is hestia

brisk trail
#

aight

#

they're both worthless at early levels tho, right?

jagged bloom
#

nah, Eris would be good

static wadi
#

tbh i dont like any of aspects for rail

brisk trail
#

I had Hunting Blades, Merciful End, and Eris so everything hit insanely hard and Hades still killed me through Divine Dash.

#

oh right it buffs all damage

#

that's nuts

jagged bloom
#

i'm gonna start using the thanatos keepsake

#

for some reason

static wadi
#

i never had a problem with damage

#

so Tomatos keepsake is not good imo

#

i want to try Hermes

jagged bloom
#

ik

#

i just want to see what % i can get to

static wadi
#

wish satyr minirooms could give a stack

jagged bloom
#

they don't

#

?

static wadi
#

well

brisk trail
#

Only end-of-branch chambers.

static wadi
#

when i played 3-4 month ago

#

they didnt

#

but it would be too op

#

only thing i dont like - shop items losin charge for every miniroom

jagged bloom
#

ok, i've decided that hestia is a better aspect if you're trying to not take damage

brisk trail
#

Eeehh.

static wadi
#

hm

#

and when you trying to take damage?

jagged bloom
#

trying to take no damage*

static wadi
#

hermes can give you like 50% evasion

#

with boon and trinket

jagged bloom
#

hermes can give up to a 30% dodge chance

static wadi
#

30 or 25 for epic boon?

jagged bloom
#

purple is 25

#

which is the more likely one

#

mostly you'll probably get the 20%

static wadi
#

i have full rarity with mirror

#

epic is very often

jagged bloom
#

same

#

but that's still 50% rare

#

and 25% epic

#

so more likely 20%

#

how much time do you get to clear

#

the rooms

static wadi
#

one guy

#

at this weak

#

showed something like 33%

#

but he is good

jagged bloom
#

hmm

#

clearing fast in tartarus doesn't seem hard

static wadi
#

he played with sword

jagged bloom
#

ok

#

still

static wadi
#

some speed run

#

i mean fast

jagged bloom
#

i'm talking about keeping the buff stacks up

#

rather than being faster

#

clearing a room in enough time for the hermes thing doesn't seem hard

#

so far

static wadi
#

yes

#

tomatos trinket is harder

jagged bloom
#

yep

static wadi
#

evade damage in elysium is way harder

jagged bloom
#

butterflies

#

chariots

#

probably the hardest to not take dmg from

#

nvm

#

the butterflies aren't too bad

#

if you have AoE of some sort

static wadi
#

and shields

#

and bows

#

and other stuff

crisp oyster
#

do boons like true shot affect your cast if you're using hera bow?

brisk trail
#

ye

#

that's kinda the point

crisp oyster
#

oh... so my loaded shot will seek?

jagged bloom
#

course

crisp oyster
#

niceee

jagged bloom
#

it woukd be useless if not

crisp oyster
#

i wasn't sure because i wasn't sure phalanx shot was working

jagged bloom
#

btw

#

what's the use

#

of loading the shot

static wadi
#

they all are work

jagged bloom
#

anyway

static wadi
#

ur attack will release ur cast

#

for example

#

if u have ares vortex

#

u charge ur aa with bloodstone(s)

jagged bloom
#

wait

static wadi
#

and after u hit this aa enemy or wall

jagged bloom
#

can you load multiple stones at once?

teal terrace
#

yep

static wadi
#

yeah

jagged bloom
#

ah

#

i see

static wadi
#

this vortex will appear

#

where ur aa ended

#

but

brisk trail
#

it makes for great burst damage

static wadi
#

there is some moment

#

if ur aa is blocked

teal terrace
#

black hole sun, won't you come....and wash away the rain.

static wadi
#

ur cast will g THROUGH enemy

#

and explode far behind him

brisk trail
#

@teal terrace i literally just watched a video about black holes that mentioned replacing our sun by one

#

haven't listened to soundgarden in a while tho

simple socket
#

Can someone explain why bow is good? I decided to try some DPS tests with bow and rail (hestia aspect). Using a combo of specials and attack, I can kill skelly with rail in about 12 seconds. With bow, even though I get many perfect dash attacks in a row, I can't get the time under even 20 seconds.

jagged bloom
#

you can hide with the rail

#

triple right click upgrade

brisk trail
#

why would you compare hestia to a normal bow

#

try out hera, see how that goes

simple socket
#

Ok I'll have a look

static wadi
#

chiron is better for single target
