ivory mortar
I mean
tender crown
@manic bobcat Bro tell me what you disagree with
ivory mortar
not like we would be the first to incest
sage marten
yeah let's stop here
i kind of just wanted an excuse to post the family tree tbf
manic bobcat
I don't disagree
tender crown
Yeah I just wanted to say Meg is best girl tbf
sage marten
also ssg has seriously glossed over the incest
manic bobcat
Just that Arte is my type
tender crown
G o o d
ivory mortar
its pg
manic bobcat
Meg is not
tender crown
Wait no
sage marten
and/or removed all the mentions of it
sage marten
also meg's
probably not directly related to zag
since her birth was all sorts of weird and did not involve standard reproduction and so forth
she just
kinda sprang from a dead titan with her sisters
thanatos is though
fading gazelle
It should common knowledge that you do not speak who is best girl when the Artemis fanbois are online
tender crown
Oh yeah it's all coming together
fading gazelle
We are extremely territorial
tender crown
Athena is like Zeus' brain tumor isn't she
sage marten
no no, aphrodite was born from the foam from said bodypart being dunked into the sea
nnnnot entirely
manic bobcat
There is an Aphrodite fan here
tender crown
Oh, but I know who best girl is. It's Meg.
manic bobcat
But she isn't online so who cares what she thinks.
tender crown
Exhales
fading gazelle
Its just an opinion
manic bobcat
But you are not Volty
past rune
Holy wow that is a lot of comments
tender crown
Ding dong your opinion is wrong
sage marten
athena is his direct daughter on account of Zeus absorbing Metis when she was already pregnant of Athena
she just finished gestating in either zeus' head or his thigh, which can be an euphemism for something else entirely also ouch
fading gazelle
In that case
ivory mortar
why even buy the extra cast from the purple stuff when its only for 3 encounters
manic bobcat
Several people are typing...
ivory mortar
why ever buy anything that expires
past rune
Ironic when it's clear Artemis is best girl
tender crown
No, it's Meg
ivory mortar
no its very ironic
rough token
Cerberus best doggo
patent topaz
Calm down volty
@fading gazelle Hey.
Don't overcharge yourself
Get it? Cause Volt? Electricity?
ivory mortar
because meg is
sage marten
is best girl and whoever says otherwise is objectively wrong
ivory mortar
shes not even a girl
sage marten
don't @ me
ivory mortar
shes a head
fading gazelle
Dusa is such a darling
ivory mortar
its a head
sage marten
heads can also be girls, don't be discriminating man
manic bobcat
Megaera bro
fading gazelle
However 11 Ambrosia is painful
rough token
she is an upstanding citizen
tender crown
Nah Meg is a good waifu, she's a mature working woman who's tired of Zagreus' antics but still treats him not that badly and calls him "Zag". And her voice. B e s t G i r l
@tender crown I present once again my argument and dare anyone to tell me why I'm wrong
rough token
Well, up-hovering
sage marten
@tender crown you're wrong because meg is not dusa
fading gazelle
Sounds fair
tender crown
Fair enough, yeah
manic bobcat
Arte is the kind of no drama girl that will make your life a series of happy and unburdened days
patent topaz
Yeah keep fighting while sleeping on Eurydice shm
manic bobcat
||Except Eurydice rejects you||.
patent topaz
she can cut my work lunch withh that jawline
||Except Eurydice rejects you||.
@manic bobcat i would never get in her and Orpheus' way :0
But they can be my parents
please
manic bobcat
Don't talk to Night Mom that way
sage marten
hey they didn't say anything bad about night mom in all fairness
ivory mortar
most drawn characters can cut glass with their jaw
fading gazelle
Nyx is best mom
tender crown
Meg doesn't scream drama wym, she's the type of girl to never even bother with drama
ivory mortar
just because its a definite line making their jaw line
sage marten
nyx romance when
tender crown
That only makes it better
sage marten
and thanatos|| was supposed to be your brother and people still date him||
ivory mortar
nyx setting up the best porno scenario
sage marten
checkmate atheists
patent topaz
aaaaah now i just realized sorry nyx
Can we hhh
Take a beach house and go on vacation together idk
Barbecue and all that, i just love these characters
manic bobcat
nyx romance when
Hmmm ||Ares might be faster than you are||
tender crown
Bro spoilers
rough token
just because the gods do it doesn't mean it's right
manic bobcat
Ay yo keep it PG though
sage marten
i forgot you were new
tender crown
No , I met him already
manic bobcat
I don't want mods to say something
sage marten
oh aight
tender crown
Just that others might have not
Well, I'm just glad that we've all agreed on the FACT that meg is best girl
Good job, guys
sage marten
no
fading gazelle
inhales
sage marten
i refuse your statement
fading gazelle
boi
sage marten
on account of it being wrong
low fiber

tender crown
What has she even said or done
sage marten
artemis is p rude too
patent topaz
i'm just... gonna go play and if i see you arguing still i'm gonna sue you
manic bobcat
How is she rude?
tender crown
Artemis is like, bottom tier
manic bobcat
And she tried to shoot me
Meg literally tried to kill you
torpid pine
Artemis is genuine af
tender crown
Because it's her job
manic bobcat
Just to advance her career
tender crown
It's clear she doesn't wanna
torpid pine
She's probably the least fake of all the gods
tender crown
She calls you Zag, I mean cmon bro
manic bobcat
Bless you Twi
torpid pine

manic bobcat
May Arte blessing shine upon you
tender crown
Not to get punished*
sage marten
so does Dionysus and you don't see people dating him don't you
he's still top bromance though
patent topaz
i'd trust her with my pin code
manic bobcat
You don't date yourself
torpid pine
dio is probably drunk all the time
tender crown
Ay chief if I had to pick between not getting thrown into Tartarus and killing a guy who's immortal
manic bobcat
So Dio is disqualified
past rune
We ARE dionysus, we can't date him
tender crown
I'd do as Meg does
torpid pine
you can't tell when he's being real or when he's just drunk
sage marten
he's always drunk
torpid pine
but ye he's a bro
tender crown
He's the party bro
torpid pine
lmao
rough token
Guys, careful about spoiling Dio stuff
patent topaz
when he drinks it's his real self
imagine sober dionysus, scary
torpid pine
what would happen if we cut his supply of nectar
tender crown
All wine in the world would turn into vinegar
sage marten
maybe sober dionysus is his god of madness side
patent topaz
i hope you like dolphins
tender crown
And parties would get 10x worse
torpid pine
oof
sage marten
madness is still part of his domain after all
tender crown
Grapes would explode into hornets
torpid pine
wdym Ayer u never had vinegar shots before
tender crown
Oh I have
ivory mortar
some people dont hate themselves
sage marten
lmao
tender crown
It halved my brain cells
patent topaz

torpid pine
lmfao
patent topaz
call me weak but,, ew
ivory mortar
why would you voluntarily take in ginger aside from with sushi
torpid pine
i only have one and like an atom it's very difficult to halve
alpine stratus
whos got a problem with ginger.... lolll
torpid pine
^
alpine stratus
candied ginger is good
torpid pine
probably dio
tender crown
Literally never heard of that
alpine stratus
oooh yeah
sage marten
@alpine stratus the vegetable or the hair colour
alpine stratus
not a fan of pom juice but the pom itself? incredible
i meant vegetable
but the hair is nice too! but not for eating
ivory mortar
boon info not being tab confuses me
ivory mortar
I did
manic bobcat
Ah ok
torpid pine
Oh I thought you meant like, tabulated
manic bobcat
Yeah some of the default scheme is ???
tender crown
Yep

Controller gang 2
manic bobcat
How many times do you realistically open Codex
torpid pine
electric boogaloo
sage marten
a lot
tender crown
LOL
manic bobcat
To warrant the LB
fading gazelle
A lot
tender crown
Yeah not many tbh
sage marten
who doesn't open the codex to check that sweet fish deep lore
tender crown
Might give that key swap some time
fading gazelle
Ikr
tender crown
Cries in too poor to spend a diamond in fishing rod
ivory mortar
I open codex to be disapointed after every dialogue
manic bobcat
Trust me LB makes Hestia Rail a lot smoother
patent topaz
when does the fishing rod pop up
sage marten
for shame ayer
tender crown
I wanna get 3 diamonds in order to get the Keys = reroll upgrade
manic bobcat
You don't have the Rod yet Symbo?
sage marten
in all seriousness have you beaten the hydra with all weapons already?
sage marten
if not you can also get diamonds with certain prophecies
patent topaz
You don't have the Rod yet Symbo?
@manic bobcat nope, mind you i never finished a run, i still have to encounter theseus
tender crown
Shield is kinda meh in my experience
manic bobcat
I don't think you need to escape for that
ivory mortar
its stronger than what I expected
sage marten
don't forget about bullrushes proper
patent topaz
bull rush go brrrrrrr
manic bobcat
I have mine way before escaping
torpid pine
My first clear was with the shield
sage marten
yeah
fading gazelle
My highest heat is with the shield
tender crown
You don't, though I'm not sure when exactly the rod pops up
fading gazelle
24 babyyyyy
torpid pine
my highest heat I think is 11
patent topaz
oh well i'm just gonna wait, thx
ivory mortar
Athena cast
manic bobcat
Shield is one of the more reliable ones actually
ivory mortar
ares saw
torpid pine
I'm doing every weapon bounty one by one, depending on which has the darkness bonus
tender crown
H o w
fading gazelle
Chaos Aspect is an absolutely carry
tender crown
Oh I only have Zagreus aspect on shield
torpid pine
shield is kinda boring to me tbh
tender crown
That makes sense
fading gazelle
Max that bad boi out and just increase crit damge on special
tender crown
It literally has one throw and one big slap
manic bobcat
tender crown
Wait doesn't this fall under discussion too?
fading gazelle
June update hopefully
torpid pine

tender crown
Oh yeah I want Charon rn
torpid pine
we're in June
fading gazelle
manic bobcat
Yeah, more on optimization and platform proliferation
torpid pine
I just wanna get the Aphro bug worked out at this point, tbh
fading gazelle
His new sprite looks badass
sage marten
lol
tender crown
I remember seeing the "latest update" tab in the game and it was like "multi-platform stuff. Not that much content but still content"
sage marten
they did fix the aphro bug iirc
torpid pine
nah, they said it'll be fixed with the update
fading gazelle
The hat gives a huge mexican vide
sage marten
nah that's just a wide brimmed hat
fading gazelle
I can just imagine maracas playing in his theme
sage marten
not a sombrero
torpid pine
he's a cowboy
tender crown
He's the owner of a drug cartel, that's how he gets so much stuff
fading gazelle
Ik but it looks like one
manic bobcat
He looks like a cowboy
sage marten
that does explain why there's so many odd substances on the well
narrow hemlock
dang blackguards really be sleeping through the whole day missing all the discussion huh, im blackguards 😔
manic bobcat
Not sure if you have seen the edited pic
torpid pine
tag urselves im also blackguards
tender crown
Yeah someone posted a clearer pic on reddit
fading gazelle
I think someone increased the brightmess to see his sprite properly
tender crown
You can see him pretty clearly
manic bobcat
Yeah
torpid pine
wait what edited pic
manic bobcat
Contrast adjusting
fading gazelle
Yeah hol up lemme pull it up
tender crown
go to r/HadesTheGame
manic bobcat
So not "edited"
sage marten
they made the pic brigher so you can see charon better yeah
narrow hemlock
throw it in spoilers
torpid pine
on my way fam
manic bobcat
It's consider spoiler
tender crown
To spoilers we go
fading gazelle
tender crown
Wait do I have image posting rights
manic bobcat
No one does
narrow hemlock
most channels dont allow direct images, just post links
tender crown
Oh
manic bobcat
I petitioned for that in the gameplay channel
tender crown
He lookin ready to slap the final boss into next week
manic bobcat
Got ignored :(
fading gazelle
Oh hi there ѕнσυкαι
tender crown
Charon, mate
Alright time to do that fist run now that I have some free time
Wish me luck bois
What should I build?
torpid pine
daaamn he's lookin fine
fading gazelle
Ikr
sage marten
@tender crown a sand castle
manic bobcat
Which weapon mate?
sage marten
hmm
manic bobcat
I recommend Lightning Strike
tender crown
Might go Zeus attack, Artemis (??) special
tender crown
I don't have her keepsake
torpid pine
if you're going aspect of Demeter, I like arti on special
manic bobcat
Lightning Strike and beeline for Zeus Legendary Boon
tender crown
Sounds good to me
torpid pine
oh yeah Zeus attack with his legendary would rock
manic bobcat
The rest is defensive stats
manic bobcat
That's how I got through 32 heat
fading gazelle
Good luck
fading gazelle
I'll also do a run cause now I'm in the mood
torpid pine
fair
fading gazelle
Yeah dude 20+ heat is all bragging rights
torpid pine
mhm
manic bobcat
What did you get?
sage marten
no
ivory mortar
what does the clicking on the boons do
when in the boon menu
can you only equip a certain amount of boons?
cause I have a lightning cast boon I didnt choose, but I did choose the chain link
sage marten
no, it just prioritizes their display on the victory screen
ivory mortar
oh ok
does my cast have to be lightning if I have the chain attack for regular?
cause it gave me it and I cant sell it individually
I can replace none the less
so i guess it doesnt matter
tender crown
Yep this isn't it folks, my controller stopped working and I lost 2 lives in Asphodel bc of it
I got the cast
Now I also have storm lightning but I've given up
Just in it for the darkness
tender crown
It turned off, couldn't do anything
This is legit my luckiest run wtf
Seen 2 heroics so far
And now a duo and a legendary in the same pick
Should I choose Second Wave or Sea Storm?
sturdy elbow
how does fishing work?
i just got a legendary boon that increases the chances of a fishing spot appearing by 20%
manic bobcat
So there will be a splash sounds and a flashing light
When it's the real one
The bouy will fake bops for up to 4 times
You just need to be ready for the real one.
manic bobcat
Good luck!
manic bobcat
Didn't want to be long winded
ivory mortar
for boons?
manic bobcat
No
ivory mortar
f
low fiber
i fish for boons
manic bobcat
For rewards
low fiber
with rerolls

Such as gems keys nectars etc
Certain very very rare fishes can give you Titan Blood or other valuable resources
But don't count on those lol
low fiber
yes
manic bobcat
Yes
manic bobcat
It do be like that sometimes
sage marten
ye
tender crown
Welp same thing except this time I made dumb mistakes to top it off
Shield this time
manic bobcat
How often do you use dash strike?
tender crown
||Skelly won't let me gift him anything but also hasn't given me his quest, what's up with that||
Very
manic bobcat
You need to talk to him more
tender crown
I just had a bad dedalus choice which forced me to pick world splitter
manic bobcat
That's it
tender crown
There's no exclamation mark above his head, and that's been the case for like 10 runs
Codex says I gotta learn more by deepening my relationship with him except I can't
manic bobcat
Depends, with slicing shot you go all in or none of all

frail urchin
I think it could be better, you're right it is kind of disappointing.
Right now it's like a bad rift blade.
ivory mortar
terse geyser
chaos is definitely gray
sage marten
chaos doesn't have an anything
sage marten
he's literally older than every concept we can come up with
@ivory mortar you only get bounties the first time you kill a boss with a given weapon
ivory mortar
oh ok
sage marten
the only way to reset them is via the Pact of Punishment
and Heat
otherwise you'll just get a lot of darkness
ivory mortar
Yo
are you kidding
I thought give up would just be a suicide
instead I didnt even get my blood
manic bobcat
Nah there are some tricks you can do with give up
ivory mortar
I didnt get my blood
manic bobcat
Giving up is actually really really nice
Don't complain
Just suicide to a trap or something
Giving up revert your save file
manic bobcat
So yeah no run progress is made of you choose to give up
ivory mortar
wait im still in my armory so nvm
manic bobcat
Just die like a normal person
ivory mortar
its late now
low fiber
it resets you to before you started the run, is another way of saying it
sage marten
Give up just resets your run, yeah
You’ll also get the exact same chambers and boons
So at least you know what you’re expecting lol
granite ether
yeah the seed doesn't change
low fiber
not exactly
sage marten
ARE YOU READY FOR A REMATCH WITH TISIPHONE
ivory mortar
time to buy the game on a new account and beating it on 1st run
/s
I cant even beat hydra
terse geyser
just overwrite your save like me, no need to buy the game again
sage marten
It’s k
You’ll eventually get used to lernie too
manic bobcat
In time, you will learn the tragic extent of Elysium
For now, Asphodel is your home
sage marten
Yeah, Elysium is an even bigger mess and ironically harder than the next area most of the time
God i hate flamewheels
ivory mortar
atleast now I can call poseidon on the brat
sage marten
Oh yeah pop which keepsake are you using?
ivory mortar
bow but this time im choosing auto fire instead of explosive
sage marten
No, not infernal arm
sage marten
Which- wait you do have keepsakes right?
ivory mortar
so I can buy from shop
sage marten
I’d recommend using either skelly or cerberus if you’re struggling with early game
More HP/an extra DD never hurt
Also if you want obols hypnos’ keepsake gives you extra starting cash
tender crown
So uh, anyone know a good bow build?
sage marten
Aphrodite attack bow can work wonders if you know how to time charged attacks correctly
sinful star
Athena on Special means you don't have to worry about Spreaders in Asphodel ever again.
sage marten
Yeah, definately
Athena in special is a lifesaver for bows
Except for Chiron
Chiron does throw a wrench into that strat
ivory mortar
@sage marten yeah ive already been using extra cash at start then switch to extra life
deep pivot
#h1-builds-and-combat for strategy discussions.
ivory mortar
Just because theres a channel dedicated to it doesnt mean it cant fall under other channels
it wasnt gonna get any deeper than that
I beat the chick without losing a life
time to beat hydra
albeit with a weapon im not that great at
granite ether
please cut the sass thanks, it was a general request from a mod asking the conversation move to the appropriate channel
tender crown
I
DID
IT
Twin fists, but mostly Scintillating Feast + Ice wine + Cold Fusion
Casts carried me, but I STILL DID IT
granite ether
ayy congrats 
granite ether
if you have a screenshot you can post it in #h1-builds-and-combat by uploading it to imgur or the like first ^_^
the first of many 
tender crown
I'm gonna try, I guess
granite ether
you gots this I believes ^_^
tender crown
I mean, I never tried to upload anything to imgur
granite ether
it's a simple drag and drop the screenshot file to the imgur uploader ^_^
warm dirge
Good to know mods here have the color of regular users in another server where I'm a mod, I'm certain that's not going to get confusing 😛

high island
I see the peasant knows their place. 👸🏽
narrow hemlock
played myself, honks my own clown nose..... maybe orpheus will one day make a song of my foolishness
manic bobcat
your yellow name says otherwise
deep pivot
Ohey it's flower girl and doggo 
manic bobcat
Her name has everything that implies a cat
high island
You edited that, and the grammar is still terrible.
manic bobcat
Well pardon me miss
high island
What's a well pardon?
deep pivot
So I know Mewmew's favorite character would be Lady Aphrodite but what about Foxy's? 
Is it Than?!
OMG no! It's Cerberus!
Yaaas~
high island
It's Lady Artemis.
high island
I'm saying Lady Artemis is the dog's favorite character.
manic bobcat
Yeah. Artemis is cute. What's not to like.
deep pivot
Ooooohhh....
Cerberus is sad now 
But yes, she'd my me BFF if we met in real life
I'd hug her and protect her from all the men chasing after her
manic bobcat
Slightly off topic but I just got destroyed in XCOM. It's the game telling me to go to sleep I think.
deep pivot
And girls too? I don't know if there are any girls chasing after her lol
manic bobcat
Should have played Hades instead smh
deep pivot
Canine strats at this hour hmm....
narrow hemlock
wait I did one whole aphro meme last night hold on
manic bobcat
There are memes about Aphro but no meme about Artemis. Proof that Artemis is no meme.
granite ether
Artemis would just be fun to hang out with
manic bobcat
You are wrong
narrow hemlock
vnnscnsk
high island
There was never a chance my favorite character would be anyone but Lady Aphrodite if she's in the game. She's the Goddess of Love.
I have actually no idea what her trial is like in Duo Boon rooms.
I've never not picked her boon first.
deep pivot
There have been plenty of Artemis memes posted in #fan-works
narrow hemlock
I was very much thinking of the time I scorned aphrodite and at the end she threatened to come kill zag herself
manic bobcat
I think you are a bit late for the best grill war.
deep pivot
That meme is accurate 👌
manic bobcat
Earlier today was a bloodbath. I half expected you to show up and defend Aphro, but no. I abandoned your Goddess.

The God of Apply Doom and Run Away lives dangerously?
deep pivot
Oooh, 1st time I see someone cheering for Ares 🤩
manic bobcat
tbf Ares cast requires you to be p close
deep pivot
That's so refreshing!
high island
The God of "I can't aim, please help me Lady Artemis".
narrow hemlock
whaaat half the time ares comes up in convo my radar pings
deep pivot
You should correct that to the patron instead lol
Ares can aim, his followers can't 👍
narrow hemlock
that's true, my aim is garbage. throw me into an foster and I'll show you 😂
high island
His trial seems very easy, too. I'm not convinced he can aim yet.
narrow hemlock
.. Fps
Phone thank you
tbh the only trials I avoid are like. athena and sometimes demeter depending on the map
narrow hemlock
he gets enough sass from his own family let him live
manic bobcat
he's still like the hottest dude in the game
deep pivot
He does? 
manic bobcat
no amount of sass can change that
granite ether
look ares likes war, never meant he was accurate in achieving that 😛
narrow hemlock
yeah nearly every god has a snarky remark about him
high island
@narrow hemlock you brought this on him.
manic bobcat
they be jelly
high island
For being rude to Lady Aphrodite.
high island
I'm taking down your God first. You're next. 🔫
manic bobcat
Mod, is inciting violence allowed on this channel?
deep pivot
That's some hardcore Aphrodite following 
narrow hemlock
yes we have foam weapons it's fine
deep pivot
(I love it)
high island
It's not "inciting" violence when I'm the one committing it. Please get it right.
deep pivot
It's allowed if they use foam weapons and hot air balloons 🎈
Because that'd be hilarious to watch
high island
It's okay. A queen is above the law. 👸🏽
manic bobcat
Thank you Peach for being a good mod!
high island
You say that, but.
I see no actual repercussions.
But yes, @deep pivot is a good mod.
granite ether
agreed, Peach is good mod
manic bobcat
I know we don't have Icarus in the game, but try not to fly too close to the sun, girl.
high island
We royalty are good at everything. O~hohohohoho! 👸🏽
deep pivot
Wow, thank you 😊
Hm... now that you mention it, Icarus isn't being mentioned in the game
manic bobcat
lol say that to Apollo
granite ether
Icarus probably flew straight into the sun
deep pivot
I know the devs have had a mentality of "Apollo has too much attention already so we will put him away for now" lol
high island
RL audio feed from my room right now: https://youtu.be/nq1G2Dh85qI
manic bobcat
I'm still upset about Hera not being in the game...
I get SSG's decisio
but still
high island
You get Hera Aspect. So there's that.
deep pivot
That video gives me the cringe
high island
Cringe? It makes me swoon.
narrow hemlock
I'm not sure zag is ready for the salt fest between hera and zeus, it's awkward enough to be in the middle of zeus and demeter's spats lol
deep pivot
Hera is mentioned at least 
Zag says her name yay!
Oooh I live for the salt fest between those two!
I remember saving plenty of Hera-Zeus memes
narrow hemlock
it's funny for me as the player but I can only imagine zag is just there like, hm, can you guys like do this another time or
deep pivot
If I were Zag, I'd sit right next to Dionysus and grab a cup of wine while they are at it 🍷
high island
Where is Xena.
granite ether
I'd imagine zag with a whole bucket of popcorn during their salt fests
manic bobcat
who?
narrow hemlock
zag: I can't wait to get in touch with my olympian family
zag, after having been subjected to everyone's petty bickering: I am no longer in any rush to get in touch with my olympian family
high island
Xena the Warrior Princess.
manic bobcat
so... Wonder Woman?
granite ether
I'd imagine John Xena being Hercules name in an alternate universe 
high island
Kicking Ares on his butt. 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
narrow hemlock
reminder ares actually consistently treated women better than the other male pantheon gods 🤧 not that popular media will tell you that
deep pivot
That's Aphrodite in disguise.

Popular media never told me that
I'm always interested in learning more about Greek gods though!
narrow hemlock
popular media likes to make him out to be a villain when he really wasnt
narrow hemlock
also looks at recent wonder woman film, never mind that ares fathered the amazons and loved them
high island
With Lady Aphrodite at his side.
narrow hemlock
he's the villain lmao

Xena warrior princess was a pretty good series though from memory
high island
It was great.
narrow hemlock
same with the pjo series, ares is made out to be a literal bully. that's why I latched onto sgg ares from the moment I was introduced to him, because for once he's not made to be a villain like every media depiction of him
deep pivot
Dude, imagine Aphrodite dressed in Xena's attire. Wouldn't that be awesome?!
Then kicking Zag like that for not picking her in a Trial lol
narrow hemlock
imagine aphrodite dressed
high island
<--already fainted

Ares seems like a gentleman to me in the game. I guess SGG did a good job at revealing that side of his 😮
narrow hemlock
one of ares's epithets involves him saving one of his children when the mother dies in childbirth
narrow hemlock
The link breaks gjskfjks
if you poke around his myths you can find stuff that's not just about him being violent and shunned but those things are never really touched on ever either
deep pivot
Hardcore Ares' followers will refer to him as Aphneius 
That was so fatherly of him!
And kinda morbid, but still! He thought about his son!
high island
Probably just to send him off to war later.
narrow hemlock
ares never started wars though. he's an aspect of the violence war brings but he himself isn't responsible for war
deep pivot
That's Eris' job 
narrow hemlock
Eris in sgg style... The dream
let me see her
I can't think of eris without remembering the one from the sinbad movie, ma'am...... but I'm sure any jen design would impress me regardless
high island
I think Earisu every time I see that name. Earisu x Strife. 💗
But, I think Earisu all the time.
manic bobcat
Wouldn't have guessed that at all looking at your avatar.
high island
Yeah, I know you think of yellow dogs wearing hats all the time, too.

I love stacking movement speed in this game. I just achieved a temporary +100% movement speed
I'm pretty sure my dash either slows me down or doesn't change my speed, lol
deep pivot
And I love your cinnamon roll picture 🤤
vague perch
Thank you :)
tender crown
I-frames tho
vague perch
I feel so slow now in the house of hades
brisk trail
It feels really awkward when you get like 5 dashes and then you come back to the House lol
Specially when you have the dashes and movement speed upgrade or that speed boost after dashing
tender crown
Even when I have 5 dashes I almost never use more than 2 at a time since I'm so used to it lol
brisk trail
Haha I also tend more to use the i-frames wisely than dashing like crazy, it can even end up on you being hit because of bad timing
On Hades specially
Having more speed is much safer
But i always pick the extra dashes because they also potentialize your mobility and are VERY important to proc multiple damage or damage stacking with Dio, Zeus and Poseidon dashes, for example
Also Aphro
sage marten
It’s aight
You end getting used to those
hollow heron
The biggest single improvement I made was only dashing for a reason
little ridge
When will the patch be live ?
hollow heron
There's many reasons, but don't spam dash mindlessly
little ridge
Sorry what month are june - am arabian
hollow heron
Next 30 days or so
little ridge
Nice
sage marten
aye
hollow heron
We don't know when in those days, but sometime
little ridge
I hope it’s tomorrow
sage marten
lmao

granite ether
tl:dr no idea, there'll be announcements once more details are ready to be announced
granite ether
indeed ^_^
sage marten
Wonder what kinda stuff we’ll get besides b o a t
granite ether
lots of hype, can't wait to see what the update will bring
tender crown
Chill guys there won't be much content to play around with
tender crown
Bc it was content focused
This update will be more of a multi-platform update
Check the update notes in-game
Latest update notice, something like that
sage marten
it also says that while the technical team is making performance and multi-platform updates the rest will work on items, boons, aspects and story so the update is still full of content even if it doesn't have many new features
so it's unlikely it's a barren update either
inland linden
spoiler alert: Hephaestus, God Of Fire will be added (I hope? 😃 )
tender crown
N o
sage marten
probably not
patent topaz
no they won't be adding new gods
They have to add one more character but it's not a god
That doesn't mean he's never going to be mentioned
sharp parcel
going off previous updates' release windows, the June one should land somewhere in the middle of the month
vague frigate
spiritbob you are making that up right?
sage marten
probably
vague frigate
i have been asking for a god of fire since i started playing in december, and all i heard was a hell no, we will never even consider it
tender crown
Dayum
vague frigate
gods are done unless they changed their minds which i highly doubt
sage marten
lol i don't think the answer went that far but yeah, iirc they're done with gods
tender crown
Feelsbadman, why not Hephaestus with burning status and such
They might add him after v.1.0 who knows
vague frigate
i have no idea, it would be awesome to release a new god later to shake up the game a little, i haven't played except like 2 years in the last month because its just more of the same
2 runs*
ill play when they release the update for sure htough
tender crown
Yep. Maybe instead of a new god, new weapons or hammer upgrades
There's a good amount of replayability already, but more would be nice
vague frigate
there will be new upgrades and boons on this june update, new aspects too
tender crown
Probably like only 1 new aspect
vague frigate
ya there is a lot of replayability, for 20 dollars i played over 130 hours
i just wish there was fire, i like fire on everything
sage marten
hey there's still enough room to add at least an extra infernal arm in the courtyard
would be surprised since we already have a weapon for each olympian that took part on the titanomachy but i wouldn't be surprised if we got another one either
sage marten
scythes are bad weapons though
vague frigate
i saw someone suggest a staff, i thought it was neat
magic staff for another ranged weapon
tender crown
There's still a lot of possible stuff if they try/want to
not magic scythes they aren't , their edginess can cut through steel
brisk trail
I'd like Apollo to be added
tender crown
We're missing Hera, Hephaestus, Apollo of the major gods right
narrow hemlock
they've said their intent was never to add the whole pantheon
all we know is they've said there's one last character coming before 1.0 but it's unlikely to be an olympian since they haven't specified as much. demeter was referred to as an olympian prior to her reveal just recently so that's why we think who ever the character is is likely not an olympian. lots of theories floating around for who it is tho haha
tender crown
Oh
Ik the new character isn't gonna be an olympian but they did they say why they don't want to add the whole pantheon?
merry harbor
aha!
Found the question in particular!
THey're only focusing on characters that fit the story they wanna tell, over going for the big names.
tender crown
Oh, thanks
Yeah, it's story-driven
But I sure wouldn't mind those gods for the post-game or something like that
narrow hemlock
thank u silv I'm mobile rn and it's harder to search on the fly lmao
merry harbor
i actually did think of you as i did it and didn't wanna make you do All the heavy lifting
narrow hemlock
but yeah in the end the story is about zagreus so you wanna have a good balance with the cast and not add so much the spotlight is taken from zag's struggle
aw 🥺
honestly most of the time it's like 'hey I vaguely remember seeing smth that answers this' and my lizard brain is urged to go find it right at that moment lol some stuff I can pull up quickly bc I've just looked for it often enough
merry harbor
it''s very notable and helpful of you!
The pantheon one is pretty common though, and I almost think the ask-supergiant should be in a more noticable location for people when they enter the server. I've noticed a lot of questions that were asked there over here when new people pick up the games.
narrow hemlock
would be helpful to have a general faq specifically for in game content and frequent questions that come up related to gods, romance options, ect

guys do you know if the game is going to have cloud save on epic games
i've just recently lost all my progress because i didn't know there is no cloud save
deep pivot
From #hades-faq :
Does Hades support cloud saves?
On Steam, yes. On the Epic Games Store, not yet, though this is something we're looking into. For now, your saves will be in Documents\Saved Games\Hades and can be transferred manually.
So I guess it's a matter of time until we know for sure.
brisk trail
On Steam, the saves are located both in cloud and HD?
Because i do have saves on my HDD
manic bobcat
Yes

Alright I've looked on Reddit and the Wiki, and can't find it: what counts as a "distant foe" for the damage bonuses vs distant foes?
tender crown
It's actually pretty generous
Distant foes aren't that distant
Don't worry about it, just attack them from afar and you'll be good
Conduct a few damage tests if you want but it really isn't distant
sinful saffron
Hmm okay
Also, on the wiki, there's no mention of the immense damage a full Aphrodite's Aid gauge does. I think it's something like 2500? It just talks about the Charm duration
sinful saffron
Yeah, Aphrodite's Aid does insane damage when it's at full gauge
tender crown
What rarity
sinful saffron
Any. It just has to be a completely full gauge
Er, for the 2500 you mean. I think Epic?
tender crown
That makes sense but I still thought it'd be Heroic or smth
sinful saffron
I rarely get Heroic calls so I doubt it
tender crown
Oh I seem to be the only one who didn't know about it
sinful saffron
Okay cool, that's what I thought
I mean, it's not on the wiki
So I feel like it's not just you lol
remote lily
its additionally great if you fight vs one enemy as it ignore block.
sinful saffron
Yeah I admittedly love Aphrodite's Aid, second only to Artemis (since she can only do I think 1300 if Heroic but it has that hella Crit chance)

No they'll let us know the release date when we get closer to it

though we could debate over what flavour ice cream is preferred by everyone 🤧

ares gets a red ices so it looks like he ate blood
zags fave flavor? thats easy. the bites he stole from everyone else

Why would Zag steal ice cream?

he's just that kind of person
manic bobcat
Also Nyx sounds like a vanilla person

Does that mean Demeter is the grandma that would always have ice cream for a treat at her house
narrow hemlock
kam i appreciate u appealing to me with ares
demeter is so bitter, would she even offer ice cream fdjsk
alpine stratus
hes not Stealing stealing but i feel like hes very "mmm can i have a bite"
demeter eats ice cubes
narrow hemlock
zag gets excited about the flavours everyone else gets and just wants to try Everything

Oh is Zag the guy that wants everyone to order different things so he can taste it all?

speaking of merch: y'all think there will be cerberus plushies?

God I hope so
narrow hemlock
if there's plushes I predict companion plushes over anything else honestly, I think there would be a generally larger want from the fans for that, esp batty and mort
hollow heron
narrow hemlock
you know as well as i do mort plushes would sell like hotcakes
I've seen multiple fanmade mort and batty plushes, so I have no doubt something official would be really popular. the only other fanmade stuff I can think of that I've seen were zag, hypnos and than acrylic standees a cn fan made. they were really cute, I want them 🥺
daring hull
oh god yes

Hey guys any tips on beating asterius and theseus? I had to face asterius alone before the duo boss fight and that itself had me down to like half health before I started the final battle. Does asterius appear before the duo boss in every run?
sage marten
not always
my best tip is focus on wearing asterius down and just keep an eye on theseus' spear throws and spins
then go ham on the relatively squishier but also harder to hit theseus
amber valve
thats basically what I tried to do, just need to get better at dodging asterius's abilities i guess
