orrrr it could be a bug.

I'm pretty sure it's a glitch I've been playing this game a ton and I know that I didn't get hit by anything that should have killed me, or even remotely did that much damage.
umbral flame
if you're recently in hell mode, they remove the automatic invuln you get from taking large amounts of damage in short times, so that can cause oneshots that you wouldnt normally see
outside of that, if you recorded it you could look back at it
and next time, there's an in-game bug reporter, just press F10
crisp raptor
I wasn't in hell mode I just had heat on, and I sadly wasn't recording it but I was streaming it on discord and the three people that saw it had no idea what happened (They all play)
void nova
damn is the save file instantly obliterated when you accidentally hit "give up" mid room?
oak knot
how can you accidentally hit give up 2 times in a row
void nova
lol dude this isn't even the first time i've managed to do this
i'm talented at pushing the wrong buttons apparently lol
this time i was paused and just trying to continue :rip:
oak knot
ouch how far did you get
beside it's still the same seed so you can have that exact run again
void nova
theseus was almost dead 😭
last time though i was literally about to walk into the final boss fight
oh wait no
that's when the game crashed lol
last time was in styx tho
and the seed seems to be affected in ways i don't understand. one time i got ares room 2 and got +198% damage after enemy slain, and if i chucked my blitz disk then every time it struck it would strike for that 298% damage, so i was like oh i'm gonna go back out and crank up the aspect level a bit to make this better, so i give up go back and i didn't even get Ares 2nd room somehow lol.
umbral flame
had the game crash on me during the theseus fight, when I was almost guaranteed to win. apparently it didnt save after the boss fights, cause it took me all the way back to the start
void nova
yep that's what just happened to me
oak knot
yeah some rare occasions the seed are different after i give up too
glossy quest
Sad
I used to have thoes crashes as well but mine was at the very last fight
Tho to be fair its my comps fault and not the games
umbral flame
pretty sure my crash was the games fault
theseus popped off his god calling power right as I hit him with a ton of lightning bolts from a zeus duo boon poseidon special on the bow, and the game was like "nope"

Do the devs have a date/month where they plan to complete Hades? So excited for the progression of the story

Does anyone have a picture of Artemis's old portrait?
latent imp
So i posted my second feedback of Hades in the feedback section (only 2 hours in mind you!) and i got 0 upvotes and 31 downvotes, maybe because i honestyl told about just beeing frustrated by the "Trials of the Gods" section the first time i got there and i quit the game instead of just letting my self die.. so yeah 31 downvotes... there has to be an achievement for that somwhere.. right..right?
crisp raptor
Nah man the first achievement is at 69 downvotes

so we don't know if there is a whole new act after defeating Hades?
it looks like that should be the case, but its ambiguous

what does an infernal gate do?

Takes you to a special challenge room that, if you can beat without being hit, gives you an upgraded room drop.

Never seen an infernal gate...
You guys know if Hades will wait for v1.0 to add steam achievements or...?
fleet monolith
there are already ingame achievements
whyyyyyy do people care so much about achievements
potent sonnet
does anybody know, if you get higher rarity boons the further you progress in a run?
vocal thorn
steam achievements would give an idea of what percentage did certain things
like, if we had steam acheivements, and there were an achivement for 32 heat, we could see what percentage of the players reached it
sinful slate
so do you just never go against meg after first run through? I really don't like murder lady
vale pawn
You'll get to go against meg more don't worry
sinful slate
also this is kinda epic
are pics not allowed in this channel
I need to flex my 69% increase in attack from poseidon
lavish prism
@fleet monolith It's a fun way to remember what you did in the game when you come back to it. "Oh right, that happened, that's so cool !". And a great starting point in a conversation between 2 people about the same game. And a great indicator of how much of the game you've been through / you've mastered. (I always check my buddies' achievement before talking about a game so as to be sure I don't spoil them)
brisk trail
You need to get an image link, @sinful slate
lavish prism
It's a good indicator of how far you are from completing the game from the developers' point of vue as well.
And yes, there's already an in game achievement list, but I was wondering specifically on steam. Because hoarding achievement is one of my favourite stff
steady yacht
Where i can send a bug screenshot?
fleet monolith
you can press F10 ingame
vocal thorn
F10 while in game
fleet monolith
and paste the link there
or you can, I guess, post it in #hades-feedback
but bugs are best put ingame
steady yacht
ty
vocal thorn
It's best in game, because there's a screenshot, and possibly debug logs being sent if you do F10
steady yacht
if i describe it not on english, would it be bad?
vocal thorn
I'm honestly not sure what their translation abilities are like for debugging
The language localization team might be completely separate and/or there might coincidentally be bilingual people on the coding teams that share the language you are planning on using
steady yacht
okay, i'll try on english
vocal thorn
or they might send non-English bug reports to the language localization team to translate
olive jungle
@steady yacht Bug reports that aren't in English are fine - we get several like that! We just run them through google translate. The screenshot usually helps make it clear what's going on too.
I don't think I've ever come across a bug report I couldn't understand at all just because it wasn't in English, haha
olive jungle
Yeah, just for future reference! And for anybody else who's wondering haha
Thanks for your report!

Is it confirmed that you cannot take damage while dashing?
I was wondering how i died in a run as i was in mid dash, So i took the recording and looked at it frame by frame, I took damage with 8 frames of dash left. During the death camera it actually showed my character still moving a inch further before the camera zoomed in on me .
light burrow
Is there any purpose to Darkness beyond 2500 in Hell mode?
static wadi
can u change pact points?
static wadi
well idc much i'm not masochistic for hell mode)
light burrow
Alright. hopefully they add something for it, because I haven't been playing all too long and I'm already way past the cap
vocal thorn
I don't think anyone actually confirmed the iFrames on the dash, and games are sort of split on this. For example, fighting games and Dark souls tend to purposely add starting and ending lag to moves for the sake of balance... but acidotically I think Gungeon's roll was iFramed the entire roll.
Acidotically (again), I do think the dash in this game doesn't iFrame the whole time, with the reasoning that I'm assuming Athena's dash only deflects during a dash, but it seems to deflect way more frames than I'd expect it to
light burrow
It's definitely not invincible for the whole dash, it seems to be closer to the beginning in my experience, and I've also noticed Athena's dash lasts longer then the usual I frames so that probably is the whole dash
vocal thorn
And I think the main issue with darkness on hell mode is that there isn't a permanent trade available for it.
like, if I could consistently trade my extra darkness for keys (or whatever), that would solve everything
light burrow
Yeah I'd agree with that, I'll probably submit a feedback for it
It's a little frustrating to constantly be getting an unusable currency
vocal thorn
Unrelated, I'm still not super sure why 3 of of 4 companions are useless on the final boss fight.
static wadi
@vocal thorn cus lore?
vocal thorn
yes; that's the official reason, but I mean like, if want extra help on the final boss, there's only 1 companion I can use
and, for example, I would like to use Meg, but her being unavailable on 2 of the boss fights is like meh
static wadi
you have the point
vocal thorn
and trying to use companion mort on the triple fury fight would be awkward since the furies bounce around the screen so much
the actual point is I'm not sure why I would ever use a different companion than the boulder, since it's easy to actual damage with it, I can use it on all fights, and it gives more health/money
vocal thorn
Yeah, he sort of dies super quickly. I tried summoning him when the final boss summons monsters, and he dies well before I can kill the summoned monsters
opaque nexus
Idk people say he’s good
vocal thorn
Maybe he's good on 0 heat
static wadi
ah Skelly
opaque nexus
Isn’t meg used in speedruns
vocal thorn
I'm not sure. I think most the speedruns are seeded, so I haven't been paying attention to them
(I usually only pay attention to roguelite speedruns, when the games actually have different categories for seeded/unseeded runs)
opaque nexus
The update in 10 days is just gonna be the new Olympian right
static wadi
well
remote lily
Im so hyped for 6th weapon
vocal thorn
I think meg is currently used on speedruns because of the hydra skip
Not sure if it would change if the skip is ever patched
to max
static wadi
@opaque nexus Greg29.12.2019
I shouldn't have said more than the Development Roadmap here, which is that we will have a brand-new weapon "later". There's always a chance our longer-term plans change, and this type of 'should' statement, while not a promise, ends up sounding like a promise. Sorry about that. I'll clarify on Twitter.
opaque nexus
I probably won’t even be there when the update drops
Ob
Oh
I wonder if chaos shield will get nerfed this coming patch
The thing I’m excited for most is the QoL changes actually
static wadi
what is qol?
opaque nexus
Quality of life
static wadi
and what is this?
opaque nexus
Changes that just make things more convenient
static wadi
still doesnt get it
remote lily
like in diablo3 you was able to click 20x to get 20 paragons to level up an skill
and they add QOL that with shift you can level up 10 with one click
static wadi
ah that thing
opaque nexus
Contractor rework please
static wadi
i do not care much about that
static wadi
Yea i have some wishes
remote lily
for Hades it can be anything like
that picking up weapon pick the latest aspect
without clicking to choose it again
vocal thorn
QOL would be like fixing the hydra heads, so they can't just awkwardly hover over the deep lava for 10 seconds at a time, because even though the fight is doable, it's still sort of terrible to have sword users just stand there waiting for the head to move
odd bramble
That wouldn't be just QoL though because it makes Tight Deadline easier
remote lily
cuz its doesnt work as it should
umbral flame
speed runs are all seeded off of the ares/athena boon seed yeah
odd bramble
It would make the fight feel better but anything that has a notable gameplay effect isn't just QoL
static wadi
or Supp fire actually will hit target instead of spinning around?)
vocal thorn
but it's sort of awkward that the bow/rail get to not be affected by it at all
static wadi
i want testing room((((
vocal thorn
well, at least the chiron bow. The other bows still might want to shotgun the special on the hydra heads
remote lily
Well I think they already have tons of content locked for Early access done. As they removed the flip ( in Hades House Zag was doing an flip when we clicked attack or so.) . Now when we click attack multiple times Hades says ' not there' ' dont try' and when we click on the doors at the left he says ' get out of there' 'not now'
btw I miss the flip
||it was like the Red singing||
||or doing the trick with transistor sword||
knotty depot
I have a question about weapon upgrades.
How many upgrade levels are there and how much blood do I need to fully upgrade Zags aspect in 1 weapon?
static wadi
5
all aspects
all 1st aspects need 1 blood per lvl
2nd aspect need 1 2 3 4 5 - 15
3rd need 2 2 3 4 5 - 16
so u need 5
knotty depot
Neat, thanks 🙂
And what exactly game means in "clear quickly an encounter" in Lambent Plume?
1 sec per enemy or something? Is there any know formula? Maybe timer option somewhere?
vocal thorn
I think the left side of the screen shows the timer
vagrant flint
Is there a version of the 'Last Words' track with bells in it?
The official SG channel only has the one without them.
raven scroll
Hey guys! 
Been playing the game for a while and have now started a fresh-new run on hell mode. I was wondering if anyone could tell me about the darkness limit on the mirror. Does it ever go above 2500? And if so, when do these upgrades to the darkness cap happen?
Cheers. 
static wadi
@raven scroll u play hell mode?
raven scroll
yes
static wadi
so there is no way
raven scroll
hope they adjust this cap in the latest update, or have other things to spend the darkness on.
static wadi
u permanetly have Budget think from pact IIRC
vocal thorn
I still don't understand how to reliably handle the minotaur's charge attack if he's on increased speed. There have been so many times where I've dodged behind a pillar, and he just runs around it.
vocal thorn
that doesn't always work when he's on the advanced mode
because the chariot sometimes blocks off parts of the screen, and because the minotaur's slam attacks have such a giant radius that I have to be far away from him
static wadi
i didnt play ex t&m
elfin kite
I hate Theseus. Still the hardest boss for me
Even pumped up Hydra with increased lava damage is not that bad
stiff summit
It's really frustrating to play aganinst Theseus shield
static wadi
no it's not
he throwes spear
he calls it back
and goes away
attack him this moment
stiff summit
I mean ive cleared the game but i still find it frustrating lol
covert plover
Hydra's still more frustrating than Theseus. And most of what I do with him is kinda brute force in some hits, even if he swings his shield around in an immediate AoE attack.
Hydra still feels more tasking to me.
Theseus' boastings help me want to kill him first.
coarse junco
For baiting Asterius dashes. You can just bait him into the wall of the arena rather than the pillar.
static wadi
it's harder to make
patent umbra
Its tricky to pull off but you can sidestep the charge just a little and stand still and minotaur will get stuck charging in a circle around you
static wadi
funny
sinful slate
is there some bug with poseidon and giving you the same boons over and over?
hes been giving me tidal dash, bounty of the sea and one other every single time i've seen him
and i already have tidal dash
vocal thorn
did you sell tidal dash, or you literally still had it equipped?
echo quail
What do i use titan blood for and how
static wadi
@echo quail u need it to upgrade ur weapon
after u unlock all weapon
and do 1 run
u will find out
echo quail
Dk what that means but im i will after progressing
echo quail
Not a spoiler dw
vocal thorn
The issue is some weapons are garbage at level 1, so people aren't necessarily going to know what they want their main weapon to be right after unlocking it
static wadi
@vocal thorn he doesnt know what aspects are yet
vocal thorn
being more pedantic, some aspects of weapons (even though you totes know what I meant) are garbage at level 1
elfin kite
@vocal thorn I agree. I feel like aspects should have their final form once you unlock them and provide an increasing bonus to cast/special/attack/whatever on upgrade
vocal thorn
When I first tried hestia at level 1, I was like, this is hot garbage tier
static wadi
@echo quail every weapon has some variations which have some specific effect which may help to improve ur style
Hera is good lvl 1
Chiron max lvl required
and so on
vocal thorn
chiron level 1 was an actual dps downgrade from the default bow, because I couldn't shotgun the special anymore
elfin kite
hera is awesome. easiest high-heat runs unless you have a time limit
echo quail
I see cool
static wadi
@elfin kite u dont want tight deadline with bow
elfin kite
@static wadi yes, it is for Chaos Shield only, I think
static wadi
@elfin kite sword and rail may be fas too
elfin kite
rail runs are too dependent on hammer upgrades
static wadi
yes it's true
elfin kite
anyone tried Hell Mode yet? I am still a bit scared to try it out
calm hawk
I have
elfin kite
how do you like it?
calm hawk
It's good, I got 2 issues with it though
static wadi
i'm not masochistic for this stuff thx
calm hawk
You basically start with 5 heat, and your weapons are locked unless you keep increasing heat for them after each successful run
elfin kite
looks like you can max out Budget Cuts right away for free heat
vocal thorn
Hell mode is fine, I've been using since after the first few days I played the game
calm hawk
Two problems with it personally
I don't like that you start with a maximum darkness possible to put in the mirror, 20 runs in and I already reached it
Makes darkness feel completely useless
elfin kite
ah, so you have max darkness. this makes things way easier
calm hawk
It does, I don't like it
vocal thorn
I like it specifically because it caps darkness early. The casual people can grind darkness for months on the normal mode if they want
calm hawk
@vocal thorn I like the idea behind it, but late game players should be able to unlock it
maybe after a certain amount of heat
the second problem is that some uh, traps are ridiculous on hell mode, due to the trap dmg increase
vocal thorn
The issue is if it's not a separate mode, the normal mode people basically get free heats
elfin kite
I still feel like Budget Cuts and No Choice are the worstconditions as they just remove possibilities instead of making a run harder
vocal thorn
because hell mode gets rid of the heat rewards before 5
calm hawk
that part is fine
I like it
Makes the game challenging from the get go
It's more that I can't edit the minimum, at the least the budget cuts part
static wadi
is it a frekin joke???? http://prntscr.com/qmqwvh
elfin kite
i think i will get into Hell Mode today
vocal thorn
You can get all the important mirror things with 2,500 darkness
calm hawk
although the exclusive removal of the massive damage shield kind of throws some gears into some runs
elfin kite
@static wadi russian locale?
static wadi
y
calm hawk
@vocal thorn eh, you can get the basics with 2500
static wadi
it curse me for using Q
calm hawk
1500 is lost just from death defiances
elfin kite
get used to it 🙂
static wadi
and will buff my Q
remote lily
with 2500 you get all basic things, without the % to rarity and the last one.
static wadi
chiron aspect
remote lily
so pooms are getting more important
elfin kite
i like how they use latin "Y" in russian locale
static wadi
calm hawk
get used to it? I played hell mode for 10 hours now
static wadi
yes i already wrote this in localiztion
looks like they use google translate or something
calm hawk
ugh language barriers
static wadi
or how even possible to have У instead of Y
elfin kite
they should use crowdsourcing for translation, as the game has tons of text
calm hawk
Anyway, I played hell mode for about 10 hours now, its not a matter of getting used to it
it just feels limiting
and all that darkness piling up for no reason
elfin kite
wait for hell+ mode
calm hawk
so a mode that's just unfun?
Difficulty is a tight rope to walk, too much and it's just frustrating
elfin kite
some of pact conditions are not fun as well. I hope they will find a proper solution
calm hawk
The traps can be fixed by either adding a maximum damage to traps, or increasing their base and lowering the dmg increase in the heat
coarse junco
Yeah. The fact that Hell mode with some modifiers permanently makes it not worth it since you can technically turn ‘hell mode’ on yourself
calm hawk
I wouldn't say that
For those that like a challenge hell mode satisfies that itch
the mode does enforce you to get better, win a run, you better increase the heat on that weapon or you can't use it
elfin kite
btw, last run I somehow managed to get 3 chaos curses at the same time. i think it deserves to be an achievement
calm hawk
5
sorry 4
If you keep buying the chaos gate item, you can easily reach 3 and a bit higher
elfin kite
omg, there is still a room for improvement for me
i got - max health, + enemy damage, + traps damage. so they synergized really well against me
calm hawk
environmental damage
elfin kite
I understand. at the same time, I end up tanking Hydra, as its bites are just scratches compared to melting in lava after dashing away
vast junco
definitely agree that traps and/or heightened security need to be tweaked for the latter to, uh
not annihilate zag instantly
elfin kite
adding +1 second delay to lava damage would help
not related to lava but probably it would be cool to add HP to traps so you could destroy them. Every time I deflect a giant ballista arrow, I feel like it was useless
echo quail
Hydra fight is aids
opaque nexus
@cloud grove spear has great hammer upgrades what u on about
explosive launcher and vicious skewer are like top tier
@golden knoll about the joint pain thing, an option to hold down the button to attack would be a much better than just giving people hammer upgrades
golden knoll
Agreed! I kinda regret how I worded the feedback thing but didnt wanna spam with extra thoughts on it
In the grand scheme of things the ideal situation would be a control option to change those jabs to a Hold, and remap the Spear Spin Attack etc. to a whole other button

that would be real nice with world splitter and I don't even have any hand pains

Hi everyone! As i understand its impossible to push bosses and Poseidon's mechanics usually give you only pushing buffs how even does this push build possible? If you can share some of your Poseidon builds i'd would be happy, really want to try some)
ocean kayak
Poseidon's knock-away buffs are hella useful for keeping ferocious enemies like chariots off of you
You should try to get his Rupture skill, if you can. It makes enemies take damage every time they move. Kinda like poison, except instead of every half second, it's every fifth of a second, so the damage stacks quickly.
Poseidon's Call/Aid is also far and away the most powerful, but since you need to actually aim it and run straight into target enemies with it, I usually pass it up. much easier to work with is Zeus' area-of-effect stuff.
Zeus and Poseidon also have call-affects that make your gauge fill faster each time you take damage, but Poseidon's is much better. If you're working with a troublesome call/aid that works better with a full gauge (like Aphrodite's), pick this up if you can.
steady ore
So Poseidon is actually more about Call/Aid effects ?
Any weapon preferences for Poseidon ?

tribal briar
@steady ore Posiedon is definitely about the knock away modifiers. The dps output from his modifiers for wall slamming is crazy, even without his legendary boon. I personally prefer it on my cast. You can can clear the 4th biome so fast with no risk, even an elite matchup. You can one shot stuff with your dash, it's pretty broken, considering it still debuffs final boss with rupture even if he's not knocked away, and is just a high %modifier in general.
brisk trail
Poseidon actually has second-lowest numbers for Attack and Special.
vocal thorn
I still like Posiedon because his trash boons are better than most other gods' trash boons. At least all the knockback junk is useful against trash. Some gods have trash boons that are only good in combos I never seem to get
"trash boons" = not usually useful
tribal briar
That knockback junk everonyes knocking on, can obliterate elites, I don't know why people be hating on it haha
shadow trellis
I was hoping posiedon's knock back would stack on Hera's aspect bow like it used to do on the shield with double hit so you could yeet some enemies across the room but alas it does not. The knock back is either op or weak.
tribal briar
@shadow trellis Casting normally has the yeet your looking for. Hera's Aspect creates one instance of yeet, but by casting normally, you get 3x the yeet, for the low low price of just not using Hera's aspect. The yeet modifier, second yeet, or pool of yeet, will ensure those that are yeeted, will need yeeting, no more. Not a bad deal for only needing 3 boons.
summer loom
The nice thing about poseidon, is while despite having lower % increase on his attack/special, unlike zues, dion, and ares, at least his scales with other boosts
jolly haven
3 is kind of a whole lot in higher heats when you can beat the game with just hestia and artemis attack...
tribal briar
You can win with any boons if you're willing to try hard enough, avoiding damage is the easy part for me, so I'm always in favor of getting highest dps possible, and Poseidon can really dish it out. It's why I don't like ares/dionysus, cause it's low dps unless very specific boons come out from other olympians. If you get an early posiedon, you'll see more posiedon, vs chancing on an olympian you may never see in your run.
summer loom
if you turn the heat up, even mid way for many of the boons, they can't stand up to several tasks
tribal briar
What's midway, cause you can do like 140 heat or something stupid (jk its 45 now
summer loom
heat goes up to 46, and tight deadline damage restricts the use of low damage boons, especially once other pacts are thrown in
midway really isn't the way to word it, sorry
but tight deadline and anything that delays the run further will greatly restrict what's possible
tribal briar
I couldn't imagine doing 45 heat with the bow, haha.
summer loom
now that I'm satisfied with what I've done with the sword shield and rail on the current patch, I've been trying to get back into the swing of things with the bow. it's been a little rough, lol
tribal briar
well there's your first problem, you can't swing with the bow
summer loom
I just need to sharpen it's edges enough!
floral sonnet
i'm pretty sure hera bow is weighty enough to smack some people around
coarse junco
Do you think the devs put any unique messages or dialogue in the game if you beat the game on the very first tutorial escape? I'd imagine that if you were sufficiently skilled it would be possible but since the game story appears to break chronologically if you beat it in less than 4 attempts, I'd imagine not.
summer loom
I'm not sure, after I finished on 32 heat, zag claimed it was a win in his book, lol
I found it pretty funny
he makes the statement after respawning from finishing the run
livid cargo
@coarse junco i think they might do that for full launch
coarse junco
I can't imagine the amount of skill and luck it would take for someone to go from start to end without dying a single time.
summer loom
I think the hardest part would be not getting bored, as it would take a bit of time and patience
you'd have no pact mods going against you

how is it good? ive got gifts to give, man, relics to have
dapper dagger
didn't know that :p
proud orbit
||It's a good one if you like bows or hestia rails||
cloud grove
@opaque nexus Quick Spin, Massive Spin and Exploding Launcher are the only good hammer options. Everything else is useless at best and terrible at worst.
And Explosive Launcher is one of the good ones just on account of making the terrible special actually usable.
brisk trail
That's an exaggeration. They're definitely the easiest Hammers to use, but the others are all good if you've got the right set-up.
cloud grove
And if you don't, you lose.
brisk trail
I've lost with Quick Spin and Exploding Launchers because I got the wrong build.
cloud grove
And someone on the reddit won a game using only one god boon.
He did not do that using the spear.
brisk trail
I didn't say the spear wasn't the weakest weapon, just that "useless at best and terrible at worst" doesn't accurately describe it.
cloud grove
So if not terrible, how would you describe that Flurry Jab effectively turns off Hades' Aspect?
lament tangle
I like spear
brisk trail
Flurry Jab doesn't work well with any of the spear's Aspects, but it itself is still a strong option.
lament tangle
Just pretend that speen doesn't exist
brisk trail
Lots of ways to make the damage very good.
cloud grove
I can't ignore the spear if the spear has bountys to claim.
gleaming crane
If I am to believe this Discord and the Steam discussions:
brisk trail
I'm up to 17 Heat on it.
lament tangle
Does flurry do more than just save you from carpal tunnel
gleaming crane
Rail is garbage.
Shield is garbage.
Please add good weapons, SGG, we only have bad ones.
cloud grove
@lament tangle It does take away your Charge Swing Attack.
Correct me if I am wrong but I think the spear is the only weapon with a hammer boon that actively takes something away from you.
lament tangle
good riddance
brisk trail
Charged Shot doesn't let you Bull Rush.
unkempt stratus
yea
brisk trail
Flurry Shot takes away Power Shot.
cloud grove
Those are just replacements.
You lose Bullrush but earn a shot instead.
You don't get a differnt means to attack back for the same command input with Flurry Jab.
lament tangle
replace special with a dragoon jump
cloud grove
Now that I would subscribe to!
lament tangle
and come down a whole 10 seconds later
cloud grove
Yeah, and then win with Tight Deadline maxed out! 😄
unkempt stratus
do i have to be stingy with my titans blood
or can i just get new aspects will nilly
brisk trail
I'm almost at 20 Heat with every weapon and I've got almost 60 Titan Blood leftover.
But I've also traded a lot.
round sandal
hey I'm new here, is there a place to report bugs? I have a screenshot but I lost the chance to do the in game bug report
mighty jolt
use f10 in game to report the bug
round sandal
is that ok to do even if the bug report's screenshot doesn't apply?
brisk trail
Yup.
round sandal
ok cool, just wanted to make sure, thanks!
wise nebula
unkempt stratus
Poseidon and Hermes feel like traps
at least Poseidon is good for farming what you need early game
onyx wave
hermes has some amazing boons
his cast machine gun is super nice
and so is his dash speed
his legendary is also pretty good (the cast returns to you)
as for posei
he can be super fun if pair with someone like zeus
brisk trail
Hermes is a nice supplement to whatever build you are going for, really
stiff pulsar
knockback just isnt reliable enough and doesnt help with you bosses at all
brisk trail
Poseidon is like polarizing
His boons for room clears are like stupid, but his damage against bosses tho, ouch
Oh, and yeah some weapons don't like the knockback too much
but for those that do, oh boi
You kinda need to pair poseidon with a boss-killing god to get anywhere tho lol
round sandal
poseidon's dash + rupture + zeus lightning duo + jolted deals some crazy damage
brisk trail
The wall splats alone can destroy rooms in a short time
but yeah
that's about what it does
onyx wave
Is there any consistent way to farm jewels? (gemstones)
I'm tryin to get merchant stuff
but its going very slowly
wintry lotus
alter fate on darkness/nectar
onyx wave
also Heat gauge is super fun but i wish I could stack the rewards instead of 1 by 1
stiff blaze
Yeah, the game doesn't get harder/different fast enough, so it feels like a bit of a grind
stray zinc
empty ferry
no
steel flicker
i consider these kinds of runs incredibly blessed
fleet monolith
yeah I always do a boon-less run to start and see if I get a hammer
if you're really smart, you play through to see the first two boons, then you restart, pick a boon that matches the second boon, and you get two of the same boon at the start since the first one changes to match the second
stiff summit
Maybe they have saves and theyre just replaying the same seed over and over

I am usually an fps person, but I've bought all the previous Supergiant games and really loving this rogue-like(?) experience so far. Just what I'd expect from you guys! o_o
solar glacier
Stupidly awesome game, but please clean up hit/hurt boxes and i frames >_<
empty ferry
the ? is there because the more appropriate nomenclature is rogue-lite
dusty cosmos
First time playing. Picked up a bow and it's telling me to Release {left mouse click icon} while flashing to power shot. How do i do that?
muted lichen
press and hold the mouse button and then release when it flashes
dusty cosmos
You mean the flash that happens after like 0.5/1 seconds of holding the mouse?
empty ferry
ye
if you do it right you should see streaks on the edges of the screen briefly and deal 60 base damage
dusty cosmos
It's not working
The task isn't finishing when i do that so i assumed it wasn't that, i did that before posting here
empty ferry
if you wait too long it doesnt do the power shot
you have to release precisely at the moment
it takes a bit of practice and good timing
dusty cosmos
ahhh, yeah
night turret
Worst part is.
empty ferry
same mechanic as in Bastion if you played that
empty ferry
for the dash attack, yes
night turret
...I was talking about the shield hammer, so I guess it makes it 3 in total
empty ferry
imagine if spear spin had a power shot
night turret
That will power-throw it in the garbage disposal.
empty ferry
why, its free extra damage if ur good
tiny bobcat
Why sometimes Zagreus bends the knee and stay in that position? Yoga practice?
night turret
The thing about the spin is... I usually lie in wait with it charged, cuz getting slapped while you spin like balerina in the corner is not that cash money if you ask me.
empty ferry
you can dash while you are charging, so that makes it safer
night turret
Cool posing is extra style points, and there is no way you can pass on style.
empty ferry
extra style is cool posing in your opponents faces, not far away, do you even DMC
night turret
I was dreaming recently about full Hades to DMC conversion. That was so beautifull I legit woke up depressed.
night schooner
When is the next major patch?
steel flicker
in 2 weeks or so
there's a timer in the main menu
or maybe it's just a timer for regular patches, i don't remember 😕
muted lichen
should be like 8-10 days at this point
wise nebula
can't wait
night schooner
Can't find any info about in online
still jetty
Is hell mode next patch or have I not gotten to that yet?
tiny bobcat
Last Dev stream they said they'd talk about next patch, but they skipped
wise nebula
what do you mean
night turret
There was like literally zero information on every new patch. If you don't count the silhouettes.
steel marten
Maybe next patch adds hats
night turret
So Meg could whip your butt yeehaw style?
wise nebula
Some Zag noise of fulfillment
tiny bobcat
@wise nebula I'm asking if the past form of verb beat is still beat.
wise nebula
yes it is
past tense is still beat
Your question almost sounds philosophical. makes me wonder.
ocean kayak
i just woke up and where the hell is @mellow vessel
all of their ideas are absolute gold
@willow mural too. i would absolutely die to see Lord Hades' reaction to Zag putting a Heracles pinup in his room
empty ferry
theres already an achilles poster there
ocean kayak
[andwhataboutitarianagrande.gif]
alpine stratus
i think itd be hillarious if the ONLY heracles cameo in game is a pin up
"theres your blasted heracles, boy, now stop bothering me about wanting to see him"
livid cargo
The wretched broker is just heracles in a fat suit
vital dragon
Hey, y'all. I require some knowledge. If I have enemies move/attack 50% faster, bonus enemies spawn, AND mini-boss encounters are more dangerous on.
Is there a consistent, run-agnostic way of dealing with Death Barge?
Or is it really just up to your run being good enough when you get there
indigo mango
nothing i can think of thats specific for death barge as opposed to just general run advice. killing the shield things is pretty obvious, the rest is just basically what you have the most trouble with
inferno bombers vs slam dancers etc
lusty wasp
you can know when it would come and try to avoid it i guess
like selecting other routes but they may as well not be available
vital dragon
Oh that's another question. CAN you avoid a mini-boss encounter
or are you guaranteed to have one?
lusty wasp
you can skip it but not always
vital dragon
I see. good to know
Yeah the bombers and slam dancers are REALLY hard to deal with when they all have armor, there's 10 of them, and you don't have space. :(
It's kind of a shame that the death barge is just absurdly more difficult than the other mini-boss encounter.
lusty wasp
do you really find megagorgon much easier?
i agree on the other ones tho
i mean megagorgon upgraded with max speed is crazy unless you bug it
vital dragon
I mean, on my personal experience, I have basically beaten the gorgon/head duo much easier
I almost always lose a whole defiance against the barge.
lusty wasp
oh - also: bonus enemy spawns should not affect mini boss rooms, right?
wise nebula
i think it does...
vital dragon
If it doesn't, then great. I was just listing down all my possible heat modifiers
wise nebula
for the transport in Asphodel at least
vital dragon
Is the answer to just "use chaos shield every run if you have those heats on" so that I don't lose a defiance at Barge
lusty wasp
yea i mean max a month recent
vital dragon
or do I just take into account that I'll always need an extra defiance to account for barge
red silo
am I the only one that thinks that thinks that shield is pretty damn strong vs. bosses?
wise nebula
affects that transport, spawn more dude with shields.
red silo
was easily able to beat hades with god awful upgrades using shield :|
wise nebula
^
vital dragon
Spugelo, Shield is often lauded as the "best weapon" in the game
So it's not surprising.
red silo
it's just too bad that beyond charge attack, the weapon itself it's all that... cool or fun to use.
wise nebula
Shield is the bread and butter but not so fun to use anymore.
vital dragon
It's boring but effective
indigo mango
i dont find it boring 🤷♂️
wise nebula
use more for grinding until it gets to the point of boring
red silo
well, whenever I'm using my shield, I always end up with the usual shield charge, dodge attack, shield charge dodge attack...
I bet dodge poison did almost half of my damage to hades <.<
vital dragon
Funny. I basically never bull rush as shield (assuming I'm not using Chaos shield)
but if you are using chaos shield, then yeah, I guess.
wise nebula
I do both. when enemy haven't spawn yet I charge up bullrush
and sometimes just using bullrush for the blocking
vital dragon
Fair
wise nebula
and then bullrush and wait for enemies to spawn and then toss the multiple shield.
echo quail
I like replacing the spin on the spear with the rapid attack
red silo
^
really liked it
broke a new record using it
a bit less than 30 minutes
0 heat tho...
echo quail
Its fun and it continues even if u dash
red silo
I went with tripple dash, both offense and defense in same package
I almost lost the run tho xD
used all revives and had 20% hp left
but hey, new record and I didn't lose so, who cares?
vital dragon
Yeah. We all get better
My current fastest run is a 9 heat sword run at 19 minutes.
I've seen speedrunners go to 8 minutes for a full run at decent heats too
I bow down to them
red silo
noticed that sword has quite powerful aspects
regal holly
wise nebula
world splitter?
red silo
I failed my first hades attempt when he had 1% hp left, it was my first attempt too. Ever since then it was downhill xD
wise nebula
i always forgot the name of that chopping Daedalus skill
red silo
until recently when I started winning spree
wise nebula
90 base damage crazy
red silo
90 base damage?
wise nebula
yeah replace your normal attack with a 90 base damage chopping thingy
red silo
which weapon is that?
lusty wasp
its world splitter for the sword
wise nebula
Sword
red silo
oh is it some weapon upgrade?
red silo
ohh, no wonder. never seen upgrades for it, ever since I got spear never touched sword again.
narrow karma
such amazing Nemesis crits
wise nebula
brainless chopping if your lucky
red silo
yea noticed nemesis... MIDLY regretting spending 9 titan blood for zagreus on bow and exagryph
10% crit bow was nice, but... nememis. bruh
vital dragon
Nemesis is my fave weapon
You basically see a lot of big angry numbers pop up
it's fun
wise nebula
I like chopping and watch the 1k 1k 1k crits number floating around
wise nebula
basically special and world splitter are both just chop chop chop
red silo
probably...
wise nebula
I'm investing Nemesis sword, Chaos shield, Hestia gun, Chiron bow and Hades spear
I really dunno which spear aspect is better..
red silo
just really like AoE of Exagrpyh, just normal attack felt like a bit lacking and upgrades for it aren't all that impressive either... it's only good when you get the right boons and hammers :|
wise nebula
maybe zeg aspect is better?
red silo
all 3 aspects of spear sound very powerful imo
wise nebula
i'm clueless with spear
red silo
description of achilles aspect make it sound like it can reach one of the highest damages in the game, probably?
wise nebula
My best attempt at spear build is Dionysus with special that bounce around.
so I can cowered behind a wall and randomly throws spear around.
red silo
Dionysus? ohhh... is the 4th aspect added to the game?
wise nebula
I'm guessing I'm really not playing it to the full potential here.
the poison stack boons
red silo
oh wait nvm. Dyonysus is a god right?
wise nebula
yes
inland shale
hey, I just started playing the game yesterday and my favourite thing has been getting the 3 bombs on the railgun and throwing them while running
wise nebula
^I like that and rocket on the railgun special.
inland shale
I suck with the spear but somehow got to elysium with it on first run
Oh yeah just tried rocket today
I literally forget the normal attack when using that weapon
Its special is so much better usually
wise nebula
so your railgun is now officially rocket launcher or grenade launcher now.
red silo
well, noticed that when you have enough upgrades, getting to final boss is kinda easy. Hardest part is to not lose too much hp and revives before the fight and then not lose the fight.
wise nebula
have enough DD(death defiance) b4 boss fight for the win
wise nebula
yeah you oughta be quick and drink the antidote from the fountain when poisoned.
yes you can get more than 3
narrow karma
you can get more than 3?
refills, skelly and one extremely rare (legendary) Chaos boon
wise nebula
I usually need 2 b4 hades just to be safe
inland shale
just got the keepsake which gives invulnerability for 1 sec when you take damage, i want to get through styx with that, but recent runs have been kinda pathetic, especially since I am currently not sticking to a weapon for running
narrow karma
only recently found out about Chaos prophecies, that legendary boon is hard to find
inland shale
I am more awed by everything other than the gameplay to do some actual gameplay xDD
wise nebula
Had 4 DD last run
red silo
btw, are there any limits to boons that give you benefits by building them up? like beat a room with 0 hits or quickly enough.
inland shale
I got to eurydice room last run, was sitting there for a solid 3 mins listening to the song
wise nebula
not that I know of...
red silo
well even if there was a limit, doubt I'd reach it lol
inland shale
I am so happy with this game, its actually the first game i bought with my own money
So worth within the first day
Also, the art seems to be made by actual olympian gods, along with the music. I literally sit in the main menu getting goosebumps for a solid minute before starting
red silo
Really liking the dialog. It's almost like somebody who actually knows how to write wrote them.
inland shale
Oh yesss, and the voice actors
my god I feel like an actual potato when i play the game, everyone in it sounds so cool
narrow karma
voice actors brought me into the game, I heard my friend streaming the Zag v Meg fight and melted
inland shale
Just zagreus alone
bright walrus
New here, anyone can recommend some content creators for Hades?
inland shale
I think wanderbots has been making a lot since the beginning
dont know anyone apart from that because this is one of the few games I feel like playing rather than watching, cause atleast for the initial few days, im gonna be having fun and not focusing on actually grinding up or anything
the amount of miscellaneous conent in this game is enough to fill like 2 generic rpgs with lore
content*
austere orbit
@bright walrus Northernlion has been doing a fun series on it
inland shale
One of my favourites is the old narrator whose voice zagreus can hear xD. Actually had tears come out of my eyes in the persephone scene.
bright walrus
thx
red silo
Wish I could refund ||aspects||. Would have much better use for the 9 ||titan blood|| I successfully wasted on ||aspects||| I do not like xD
ocean kayak
so zaggy just said "i think i need a shave" in the mirror.
@supergiant games zagreus stubble art when
red silo
Also, when deciding what to pick for heat... I went with trap damage for first one. "Oh it's just traps. Just don't step on a trap, what could possible go wrong?" In the end I probably took half of the total damage from traps T. T
wet reef
Yup, final boss has an attack that counts as a trap :)
wise nebula
one of the worst traps.
marsh horizon
Lemme date meg pls thnx

Lemme date meg pls thnx

I just knocked skelly to the very end of the ledge overviewing tarturus. Would be awesome if there was some easter egg dialogue there

jump
red silo
oh damn nice. didn't realize how many levels you can get for olympian favor. 27% and still can go higher?
bitter sable
for the rare chance, yeah, for epic it's capped at 25%
serene obsidian
Yeah get rare and epic capped.....and then get pissed when you see normal boons cause you won't see alot of them lol
wise nebula
sometimes your so unlucky and the all 3 options are still just common
red silo
guessing with rare and epic maxed would quite easy to beat ||Hades|| even with garbage synergy boons.
candid pine
What is Chaos shield's max rank? Lvl 5?
candid pine
Meh I'll sacrifice 3 ambro to max it ig
wise nebula
keep some ambrosia for later
wise nebula
i guess you're ok to exchange some blood then.
candid pine
What's the combo with the shield again? Charge - special - repeat?
red silo
Haha! ||Hestia aspect|| at level 4 is god damn powerful. Takes only few seconds to kill Skelly
wise nebula
also bullrush when enemy spawning, toss the shields later still works
deft ibex
Hello everyone
red silo
Well I know what weapon I'll be using for next few runs.
wise nebula
sometimes bullrush - special is just overkill, normal special would also work.
candid pine
o/
wise nebula
candid pine
I have a feeling that big dusa head fight will tilt me hard
deft ibex
Hey, im looking around i i cannot find how to get roles, where do i need to look for that ?
candid pine
iirc it was #bot-commands
wise nebula
block and throw, block and throw if dashing doesn't work too well.
deft ibex
ty ❤️
wise nebula
type ?rank for the list of roles under #bot-commands
knotty depot
What are the chances to get normal-rare-epic-heroic boons?
If epic 10% and I have in the mirror +25% then it will become 12,5% or 35%?
wise nebula
probs 35%
I don't feel like it's that low like 12.5%
i have the rarity boost capped in my mirror
knotty depot
So, if you max out pobs in mirror then there are nearly never normal boons?
wise nebula
pretty much feels exactly like the cap, ||50% for rare 25% for epic||
with chaos boons that boost your rarity almost never common boons.
if you're really unlucky you still get common ones but they're really not 'common' anymore.
brave crypt
Does anyone else’s copy of hades freeze after they open the Microsoft game bar until they flicker the screen via alt+tab etc?
wise nebula
mine's fine
brave crypt
Hmm it shouldn’t be my computer...

maybe try fiddling with fullscreen window fullscreen and update win10 or graphic card driver something.
and v-sync?

Oh I was looking for that channel

What's the best designed boss fight in everyone's opinion mine is Hades himself
calm charm
Hello everyone. I may have detected a minor bug in the game. Is this place the right place to post it at?
F10 in game. Just read that now. Sorry
deft ibex
Hey, if i wanna go back to the house of hades
the fastest way is to let an enemy kill me right?
there is no "end run" button?
crystal plume
There's a give up button
remote lily
but it doesnt shows up everytime
dry falcon
the meg fights are my favorite
deft ibex
the give up button acts like a death right?
dry falcon
the only boss fight with some variety
wise nebula
you can give up in a room with enemy i think
remote lily
it cancel whole run
dry falcon
then just see how far you can get
brave crypt
Just keep going, you’ll die eventually
wise nebula
die trying is the underworld way
deft ibex
sometimes i just get stuff that i dont like and its such a bore to keep on going knowing i will get my ass handed by the big man upstairs
inner arrow
You won't always get the RNG you want, the best way to make the game enjoyable is to practice with everything and get good at them
If you only play runs you get great rolls, you'll only have fun a third of your runs 😉
inner arrow
For sure, but if you aim for very specific boons and try to get like, a Duo boon, it can be harsh
summer loom
oh yeah, they are something to treat as icing on the cake
inner arrow
For exemple I often try to get Premium Vintage as often as I can (simply love that boon) but I can't seem to get it that often
brave crypt
I personally want to see Hephaestus in the game
wise nebula
Daedalus kinda took his job
eternal trail
Anyone know how to get skelly to start giving u his statues?
beat 8 heat with multiple weapons
summer loom
just takes one
idk what it takes for him to provide them in the first place though, I started prior to them being added
wise nebula
beat one get the next.pretty much.
eternal trail
hmm maybe i haven't talked to him enough
brave crypt
I’ve only just met than btw
wise nebula
yeah probably that.
summer loom
are the statues in the corner for you?
brave crypt
I don’t even know if Daedalus is personified in the game
eternal trail
nope and its' not giving me the achievement in game either
i'll check after 8 conversations i guess
for his next codex entry
summer loom
you might have to gift skelly a certain amount, or buy something with gems/diamonds from the guy near hades
wise nebula
are you on heats yet, like did you beat the game at least once
not sure about how to trigger it, but i think with some heat level and relationship he'll just give you the first statue trial.
stiff pulsar
"cos i've done up to 10 heat and nothing"
wise nebula
that's.. troubling.
vocal thorn
You have to click on the statues that are in the bottom right corner of the skeleton room
wise nebula
i think i have my first just around 10-ish heat
vocal thorn
At least, I had to, at which point the skeleton was like, “oh yeah, here’s a statue”
inner arrow
Skelly gave me the option to get statues when I was around Heat 3, but I get heat up on all weapons equally, and I had Skelly at max friendship for a while there
wise nebula
oh you mean the statue is already there but you can't seems to get it done?
yeah need to investigate it first
inner arrow
Have you exchausted all dialogues with him? Like when you talk to him, what does he say?
For me he's always saying the same lines these days, I exhausted the dialogue options
wise nebula
me too.
vocal thorn
It’s super awkward, because I literally only knew the statues were there because I saw that other people had them. I never would have just randomly clicked on them otherwise
vast shell
super late but am i the only one who prefers the barge over the megagorgon?
especially when i'm running bow and/or don't have athena boons
inner arrow
I kinda like Barge but it messes Speedrunners
brisk trail
best typo ever LOL
vast shell
yeah. YEAH.
late saddle
Yeah I like the barge more 90% of the time
vast shell
plus it gets its own music!
late saddle
one of my fave tracks is the barge one
inner arrow
I do like Mega Gorgon too, I think the fight is interesting, but it lacks a bit of unique feel
fiery skiff
Barge sucks with buffed elites, but buffed megagorgon sucks even more ~_~
brave crypt
I like the barge more
fiery skiff
Both ways in this biome are the reason why I hate elites in pact
inner arrow
Most other elite fights feel unique in their own way (Barge and Minotaur come to mind)
eternal trail
ya i think i've probably not talked skelly enough
inner arrow
I think it's something that'll change as the game updates, some elite fights show as being placeholder (Tartarus!)
eternal trail
i've exhausted with everyone else in the house but i forget about him lol
inner arrow
You forget about best boy?
Next time you talk to skelly, think of the fact that Zagreus and Skelly are voiced by the same person
It's really just a monologue with voices
late saddle
An impressive range
inner arrow
Indeed
crystal plume
I wonder who the new Olympian could be I would love to see Hera Queen of the gods
inner arrow
I assume the gods that are mentionned in the Aspects are likely to come as Olympians?
So Hera would be possible
I'm interested in something akin to Demeter myself.. especially since she is the mother of Persephone
late saddle
my birthday gift to myself is probably just going to be playing the new update all day
how did I never find the spear upgrade that causes your special to do area damage before this is amazing
cinder ice
I'm hoping for Apollo personally
sullen nebula
I don't see Hera in Hades by the virtue of the fact that Supergiant probably aren't really into delving in the fact that Hera is Zeus' sisterwife
inner arrow
Demeter would hype me
inner arrow
@late saddle When's your birthday?
stiff pulsar
demeter with plant theme sounds awesome
hera is what the goddess of the home/hearth?
not sure what that would entail
late saddle
21st, Xgp
wise nebula
marriage and birth i think
ironically
yeah. i find charm pretty useful since it works on everyone
late saddle

Does Hades use steam cloud or should I transfer my save files over when I switch computers?

@light bay Please report bugs in-game by pressing the F10 key! This lets you describe the bug and sends a screenshot and your save data to the folks at SGG so they can check it out and work on a fix ^^

Is this an in-game feature?
light bay
Wops sorry I missed that 😅
wooden flame
vocal thorn
@warm hedge My save files are on my hard drive, so I'm assuming your saved files are on your hard drive too
The only possible precaution is to make sure you transfer files to and from the same game version. Like, if you backup your saved files today, then pasted them into your new computer next month (and the game is a different version then), then I'm not sure if it would error
late saddle
Nemesis sword is the easiest aspect to work with, in my experience
Maybe the others are better, idk, but I do best with that one
vocal thorn
Nemesis sword is my favorite, but honestly it's so much easier and safer for me to hit things from afar with the chiron bow
eternal trail
Nemesis sword or Chaos shield are probably the easiest i find as well
lusty stump
Nemesis is quite insane with the damage output it can do if you get lucky with the crit and set up.
eternal trail
can make pretty much any kind of build work with those two
zenith carbon
I'm getting pretty far up on hestia rail
eternal trail
while others u need a little bit more specific stuff
eternal trail
haha
zenith carbon
It's actually kind of funny how I completely dismissed it when I first unlocked it
25 whole damage on manual reload
zenith carbon
I might give it a go later ¯_(ツ)_/¯
but right now I'm having fun with 400+ damage aphrodite manual reload shots
dang, game froze
that's a first for me
humble finch
I had cutscenes where I'm still charging my weapon
So it's chill
Its funny looking too
zenith carbon
hum, I think maxing out the hera bow may have messed up the multi-cast 😦
I don't know if it was intended to be done or not so I don't know if that counts as a bug lol
Or maybe it's the no-charge shot
eternal trail

build you go for?
attack damage % increase?
question, is the 150 damage a separate instance
or can it get augmented by % damage boons
so if i have Aphro's 100% attack daamge boost, that means that it'll do 300 damage on first shot?
granite lintel
I can't quite remember, but i'm pretty sure yea
150 damage even if you have to just go a crit build is still insane

it just makes the first shot 150 damage, so yes
