But yeah, kiting is probably your best but not fastest option
Its easier if you have a dash boon that damages enemies, just be sparing with your dashes
I feel like that's not very good advice haha...
does deflecting strike give you flamewheel immunity
sometimes when using fists, i get a hammer that allows my special to deflect. i can kill those little chariots to deflect the explosion
it feels like it does
I feel like the deflect dodge at least doesnt give immunity
Hi
When there are achievements, will those I made in early access be added?
sorry if my english is not correct
there has been no mention of achievements so far
however, the game does keep track of the various things you've done, including fulfilling the prophecies
which basically act as in-game achievements
im sure if theres steam achievements for any prophecies and such, many of those should be retroactive, since theres no getting them again without starting a new file. im sure stuff like that has been under consideration by the team
wont know til 1.0 though
I've no doubt they'd be retroactive
So, one of the buffs the benefits package can give is speed, huh
And of course, the hot wheels get it
Fun
the binding of isaac makes nearly all achievements retroactive when they release expansions. the only ones that aren't are ones that can be completed again (beat a boss x amounts of times). i'm sure thus will be the case with hades
wouldnt be surprised, many prophecies were retroactive
is anyone else getting small hades updates whenever they restart steam?
theres been periodic fixes, yes
ok just wondering, thanks
theyve been sending out a few small patches a day since the update went out
on 103 runs and Chaos' legendary boon is the only thing in the prophecy list I haven't come across yet. And (searching on reddit etc) looks like it's random without any prerequisites unlike the rest boons
How long did it take for those who got it?
lol, beat ||asterius|| with ||lucifer|| gun + frost attack and he just got stuck in death animation
and took some chill damage for a while
until he like walked into a wall, the door opened, shut again, and he the phased through the door
use spoiler tags please
Do you have to be using the respective weapons to get the conversations to unlock their new aspects?
you have to invest some blood into them, i think 5 for each? and then just get friendly (give nectar) to the respective person that initiates the conversation and wait for them to talk about it
make sure to have || guan yu|| before all this tho
Hmmph. I've met all those conditions. No luck yet though.
im actually not sure if || anybody but the gods|| needs nectar for them to tell you but i do remember for sure || artemis || not telling me jack until i gave her stuff
just keep playing and youll eventually get it if youve met the conditions, sometimes it takes a while because of RNG or other convos they have that get priority for whatever reason
the aspect dialogue are not locked behind affection whatsoever
Does the random swap from the hammer count for the achievement?
What are the new requirements for Artemis's Legendary
Huh, looks that way
Neat
Thanks
Damn, I think I played Hades for so much already that I still am a bit burnt out on it
Even though I havent played in a while
they added stuff but the game is mechanically the same
I feel the same way
at least the new rail aspect is fun
Is a rogue like
Poms feel pretty weak
it's in the patch notes
What
Yeah but
Poms?
I was playing bow, I had aspects unlocked, and I still got nothing from Artemis
Are y’all talking bout those pomegranates
you got a bunch of other dialogues queued up
Or something different
have to squeeze those out first
once the queue is empty you meet the requirements, she'll drop the line
Yeah I dunno, I've gotten generic dialogue from Zeus and Artemis about 8 times from each
are you 100% sure it was generic?
"Hey Zagreus, your not alone down there!" was the one I just got
that is generic
I had to meet the gods several times as well to clear up new dialogue options before they gave their passphrases
Plus I've had repeated lines
have you met the requirements outlined in the patch notes?
I've gotten all the other aspects unlocked
if you still can't get em after a few runs, hit F10 and report it
I got em right away myself but who knows, maybe a particular trigger is borked on your end
it happened before
Lucky me 
make sure you meet the minimum titan blood requirements per weapon
sometimes that bit is overlooked
I hate the guns reload mechanic
If you keep clicking with no ammo
It won’t reload the ammo
hey how do I get a ||Charon|| fight? his gold bag doesnt show up anymore after i beat him once
@carmine pecan Zag aspect is pretty good across the board for all weapons and is the cheapest to level since it only takes 5 total Bloods to reach max rank. All of the zag aspects don't change how the weapon is used, but gives a more passive buff to each. Certainly the double ammo for Exagryph is nice
We used to play with only the zag aspects
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Id argue the Zag aspect on bow is the best one
@fiery pebble I certainly used it more than any other. Simple +10% crit. But the bow was always my least favorite weapon. Having fun now with the 4th aspect
same xD
Its my personal favourite actually
Like why is the bow special so Dudu
And I think the base one is best because I think the gimmicks make the weapon worse
Regular bow does more damage than special bow
And I prefer having the utility of the casts
@devout bridge Don't share spoiler material here. Please do so in #h1-story-discussion
Uhh, question. Does the speed boost from the Lambent Plume stay with you after you swap it out? Or do you only get the speed while you have it on you
mmm, gotcha
@sharp parcel unless I'm blind the patchnotes just say cast bonus ammo is reduced and the reqirements have changed. Not what the required boons are.
How to get roles in this server?
@deep pivot My apologies. I didn't think I was being explicit. Will be more careful in the future.
Like the hades role
is there a way without physically counting to tell how many rooms in a set floor you have gone through?
No
:/
is there a way without physically counting to tell how many rooms in a set floor you have gone through?
@alpine mural Open the boon menu. Chamber number will be on the top right corner.
Can just open up the boon menu to see the chamber number
oh nice 🙂 thanks
@raw cape you used to need Exit Wounds and Dual Shot for the legendary
Dual Shot is a duo boon now, so you only need Exit Wounds for it
is there a set number for when each boss is?
of rooms
where could I find that info
i feel like there should be, I seems to be able to tell how close am i to a boss after a couple hundred run
boss is always before a shop too, and there are only 2 shop per zone
where could I find that info
@alpine mural They are in specific room numbers but I can't remember quite well the numbers. I will do a run and update you on that 👍
Lol
the number could go higher if you pick Chaos/Erebus instead of the pre-boss room
what if there is a disguised room that just take you to hades
you mean a room that takes you...home?
i for once would like a Erebus room that has every single boss that cost 30 heats to enter
Pls no
By the way, for Fully Loaded to appear now you'll need 2 of these:
- Hunter's Mark
- Exit Wounds
- Support Fire
@sharp parcel @raw cape
yes, -1 cast
Yes
It gives +2 bloodstones now.
hm
Too strong with the regen cast variation I take it?
well, I suppose mark and support fire are decent options if you're not using Poseidon or Hera
variety!
so in that count of chambers before the boss room chaos is included in that number?
chaos and erebus should not count
Chaos is a room, so yes
nvm then
same with Erebus
I always felt it was a specific number it's good to confirm finally
it replaces a room, but if you take either of those before the pre-boss room, then it extends the number of rooms
nice so a kind of free room
cause you can't skip the pre-boss room
but can you skip the boss room? 
yes, by selecting Give Up from the pause menu
haha
it's a shortcut back home
thanks for the info
Arthur for life
Sword is pretty dope
Zag aspect Stygius is honestly my most played weapon
Even though it’s the pumpkin spice late of aspects
I think my favorite new boon, going by names only..... .side hustle
it's just so good
I read that wrong
provided you didn't buy it with gold
yep
i wanna fight cerberus, damn it
but why
wow the heat timer is rude ! forced to finish the run to 24mn . stressed entire run
I still think fully loaded is a very boring legendary
Is there a way to check which boon abilities you have in a run at any given time?
oh boy i LOVE it when i just do a run for poops and laughs and hen i somehow get 15+ boon and end up at the final stage
you could fight cerberus?
@final grail it's the button bound to Boon Info in the controls setting
Oh sweet
Dont think of it as a fight
Think of it as playing ... fetch
You throw arrows, and he catches them
With his body
Jokes aside, you cant fight cerberus
Yet
its not gonna happen lol
if we ever fight cerb we riot
rigging cerb to perform in a fight is a lot more difficult than having him sit or ||animating charon for his fight||
ok then I want Cerberus as a summon
i STILL have yet to fight him
all summon slots are taken already
when you summon him he do nothing except sitting there like a good boi
@amber rampart I was thinking about the same thing! Great feedback in my opinion 
@narrow hemlock pretty easy to expand it and add a new one lmao
but thats not planned for 1.0
Well, Hestia appears to be busted as hell still
whats the issue with it 0:
hestia?
you mean the aspect?
Plz add grandma Rambo
what is that
I believe its a humerous way of describing Hestia
Since she is a grandmotherly figure who happened to use a rocket launcher/machine gun hybrid
oh i wouldnt know, havent used hestia in ages lol. i dont really run rail much bc its not enjoyable for me on controller
i have to switch to kbm when i wanna do rail runs
huh
i just dont like the way it controls, too janky for my liking
Its just easy all the way through
Yeah thats fair
I just like that I need 1 boon
And the run is already won
i wanna fight nyx
i wanna fight Chaos
i wanna fight doggy
i wanna fite
fight the chef
why
Like, get an Aphrodite Attack boon on Rail, and youre set
why is it on the run i dont feel like trying i make it to the end
now i gotta fight him
I just had a run where its basically the only thing I got
Still finished the run with 2 death defiances left
why aphro on rail u set
And I only lost the one because I forgot what button Call was bound to
what boons
Aphrodite attack boon, thats all you need on maxed out Hestia rail
Aphrodite specifically because she has the highest % upgrade from the attack boon
Artemis is probably slightly higher DPS at max, but its unreliable
But yeah, one attack boon and you hit easily upwards of 300 per reloaded shot
i love the aphrodite call
Yeah, Hestia rail is basically Eris but way less jank
Turns out reloading is much easier than having to explode yourself with your own special
Way more powerful, because it changes the base damage
Which means its multiplicative
Wait, damn
150 base damage, so 100% extra damage is 300
No wonder Aphro is so good on it
Yup
The biggest increases in damage are ones that affecte base damage
anyone know what im missing from this list or where theyre located at:
||dire inferno bomber
doomstone
wretched sneak
dire voidstone
megagorgon
dire skullcrusher
dire spreader
dire soulcatcher
???
???
???
dire saytr cultist||
Oh yeah, were missing the fist aspect
Hopefully its a good one, I dont like the fists right now
i don't see Poseidon much since previous update
Zeus, on the other hand, became much more common
@safe yoke You're missing three Dire encounters in Styx. Just keep running those Elite wings.
Fists are just less interesting sword tbqh
I wished they would be a big comboing weapon
But nah
Thats not really a combo
I wanted something like attack attack special doing something different from just regular special
You know, various combo-strings you can flow between
man you actually count your button presses? i just spam and pray for stunlock
late game consists of not only spamming attack but
ALSO dash
high level gameplay right there
and lol i JUST got a Poseidon drop
I mean right now I dont
But if the weapon had that, I would
I just think the weapon as it is is kind of half-baked
so should i get RAZOR SHOALS or EXCLUSIVE ACCESS
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/313009326102937600/725862218079535194/20200626015412_1.jpg
I lost one life on this chamber. Any suggestions?
(Bow it was.)
The first one.
Thats why I dont like the "x hits negated" heat option
The default bow.
yeah, nothing to be done
Your best bet was probably to just spam uncharged dash attack til you get rid of the damage shields
maybe having Dio would've helped a bit to stave off the shields
Then try to line them up with a charged dash attack to kill em
Damage control was off tho.
@uno
well, yes, the shields came from the Benefits Package
imagine this but with even more blue hearts, more enemies and you have to sell your boons
high heat simply aint fun for me
32 heat is something you do out of curiosity for the trophy and probably never touch again
Someone help me. I've spent maybe my last 20 or so runs trying to get fully loaded and cant. I get multiple of the boons required for the multi-shot boon but it never shows up.
I never had it either actually.
I like high heat, but not all options are equal
I tend to not use anything that makes enemies take longer to kill
Since that just makes them bullet spongy
I prefer maxing out on enemy damage and speed
after this new steam update, i need hades avatars
That's actually the opposite of what I take 😄
I mean, everyone has their own preference
I just think challenge is at its best when its just the same length, but more intense
When every error can get you killed quickly
my game has updated like 3 times today, anyone else's?
I had some few recently, yes.
guys to i get Rama Aspect i need to have all bow aspects maxed?
now I really want an MMORPG version of Hades
co-op hades would be the dream, but sadly that's not Supergiant's style
How would coop work?
Thats odd then, because I have the requirements for the aspects
But Im not getting the dialogue
Zagaerus and his long lost twin brother, obviously, unless we're going the full alternate character route, you can have the 2nd player be Thanatos
Other than shield I guess
imagine a coop where Zag and Thanatos are in an arena fighting infinite waves of enemies. Thanatos could be reworked to be less op since he would be a player. every couple waves, charon would appear selling items, then after 30sec or so, he disappears, and the next wave would begin. it goes till the players die
I dont think Ive invested any titan bloods into shield because none of the aspects are worth unlocking or upgrading
I would love a SGG co-op game to play with the friends who got me into these games in the first place, but I don't really see Hades working for that tbh
aspect of zues is good unovven
@fiery pebble Beowulf aspect with charged flight one-shotting every is pretty fun
make me feel like a sniper
Zeus is pretty dece
I just didnt want to unlock it because its pretty meh til maxed out
And I only have so many titan bloods
I am a big fan of the Chaos shield
Chaos shield is just busted
Also I would probably still forget to use the special while zoomin around
The AOE is fun. And Chaos occasionally talks to you through it!
Aspect of Chaos is widely considered in some parts of the community the best in the game.
And I have always disagreed with that opinion
And also loads of damage
Though I have heard its optimal in speedrunning
it's very strong but it's not as busted as it was
I just think shields special is worthless
And even having 5 of them doesnt make it worthwhile without specific combinations
Ive played with ares special shield before
Tiny bit safer than regular build, way slower
then you'd want Athena attack with it, and then the duo
I think that was the only time I had a 40+ minute run
I much prefer Dionysus and Zeus than Ares, but with Ares you just get Merciful End with Divine Dash.
at which point you're a pain train
Shield special is honestly pretty good
Yeah with specific boons its good I imagine
But Merciful End is silly on anything that can quickly apply Doom.
But thats too much of an investment and highroll
lol no
For something that isnt very fun
I know
you can force stuff, man
Tell you what, UNOvven. I'll stream an Aspect of Chaos run, we'll see how long it takes me.
I still fail to get the builds I want quite often
So Id rather have an aspect I know is guaranteed to be good
Rather than one that is good with the right boons and awful without them
Though I guess, its still the baseline shield without the boons
have you tried using Fated thing that allows you to reroll boons?
You can just build for bull rush and be effective there
Fated Authority?
Ive not used the flipside yet, no
I don't remember which one it is
Dont value it as much
the one that rerolls boons
Thats the flipside
I used to be like you, a non-believer
Fated Persuasion
rerolling doors
Fated Authority is still good.
thinking my salvation lies behind em
I prefer rerolling doors
but I saw the light as I started rerolling boons
For my playstyle, its better, especially since you get more rerolls at max
you get more door rerolls because boon rerolls is the nuts
I want Zeus attack on my rail
I start with Zeus keepsake, get his boon, reroll until I get attack, I won the run
@fiery pebble @brisk trail I had a run with Aspect of Chaos + Underworld Customs + Approval Process 2. So overall, it is a great weapon 
I mean, if works for everyone else, thats cool
I was about to send the links to Pear just now 
Some people also enjoy fists, and I dont
say, are you also using Privileged Status over Family Favorite?
But I think shields special is far and away the worst attack out of all of them
Hm
I think I picked Family Favourite?
you're better than me in that regard
what is a weapons dark thirst?
took me a looooong time to realize that FF was better
Gives you more darkness I believe
ah
They nerfed Family Favorite recently.
It's a buff that gives you +20% Darkness in your whole run.
There's plenty of reason to take Privileged Status still.
Oh, thats what gave me dodges
it's still good tho, even at 25%, which is the standard amount with 4 guaranteed gods + Hermes
Yeah, of course.
and you can force a couple more gods on top for that 35%, if you feel like it
or even 40% if you get 4 gods in Tartarus
I used to run High Confidence as well
But I wasnt sure if it was multiplicative or additive
And I kept getting hit
So Im back on thick skin
nah, I wrote that one off on the spot. HP is just too valuable
Guan Yu teaches you that HP > damage
I've been running HC recently, because I forgot to switch it back after a challenge run. It's not too bad
Nah
I did a min-health GY run
Guan Yu teaches you that trading HP for damage is awesome
o7
but losing the damage bonus from the talent in one hit, along with your Death Defiance, certainly isn't
I mean
Just dont get hit?
That's why I got a perfect clear on final boss xD
I did lose two DD to the new boss
that's too big brained for my shielded mind
Oh, I definitely prefer shield
I've played so much Chaos shield that not getting hit feels wrong
Hahaha
hit and block, that is
Chaos Shield has been my most consistent No Core Boons weapon
and they added a hammer that grants you a 20% damage bonus to everything for 10 seconds on block
I stand by Minotaur Rush + Charged Shot
I've neither the patience nor precision to time that
me am block, me am charge, me am choo choo
Actually, does anyone know if high confidence is multiplicative or additive?
No idea
Red shade is just lovely
Yoo
I tried looking in the files to see if High Confidence is multiplicative
And I realised I forgot how to read any of this
hm god gauge 1% per 2 seconds is pretty useful
just dash and avoid enemies and when gauge full attack with calls
ph i had that
i also had increase starting gauge too
i was spaming god gauge during boss fights
or even normal fight
just check on Skelly with a weapon that does 10 damage, with the talent on/off
High Confidence is what, 20% bonus?
Since multiplicative and additive would be the same on an unmodified weapon
Although
I have an idea
Its additive
If I use Distant Memory, a powershot does 78
If I add High Confidence, its 93
Thats a damage boost of 15, which is 25% of the base 60
So its just legitimately not good
well, there you have it
quite a few of em in Hades: talents, boons, hammers, even weapons and their aspects
pity
||Infernal troves|| give upgraded rewards?
as in, darkness gives || bonus max health? || I don't believe so
are you answering my question @rough token ?
yes
they do give upgraded, yes
thanks
Jesus christ... ||"Requires 15 heat"|| lol
like how the more expensive options in area 4 are upgraded versions
I'll pay more attention to that next run. It has been a few days now since I've played
Do you guys use weapons based on dark thirst?
sometimes ¯_(ツ)_/¯
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Depends
Usually yes
But sometimes Im in the mood for a particular weapon, and sometimes the weapon that has dark thirst are the gauntlets
In that case, no
When you take a boon for a special/cast/attack is the next boon = chance to have an option to take over that other one?
Like if I take Ares Special is it less likely to get Aphrodite Special after that?
or same chance of getting Aphrodite Attack
Hunters mark with ||chaos aspect for the shield affect everyone hit by every shield?||
While I believe it might be less likely, they can still be offered as replacements for +1 Rarity. Especially so in Trial of the Gods rooms.
@vapid grove considering ||all the shields are affected when you use the lightning and doom affects I would ||assume
That really is some banger customer support
ikr
@vapid grove if you don’t wanna mark stuff as spoiler you could also ask this in the spoiler chat
Hades has become a morning routine at this point
The game is amazing and the developers are so consistently exceptional
One thing I really like about this game is everyone has a different nickname for zagreus
godling, nephew, coz, cousin, o' son of hades, the hades kid, zag, highness, prince,
impertinent fool
i finally beat ||charon|| in tartarus without using any of my DDs! took a few hits, other than that it was a great fight. used the fists with max zag aspect btw
o7 nice job!
i feel like im finally starting to learn the fight!
redblood
i haven't gotten it myself yet, but i know you need to romance her. have you done that?
is her affinity gauge full?
I'd go to #h1-story-discussion for talking about that
I saw that
@slow snow Watch your language and tone. Bear in mind rule n°2.
can I censor the bad word and repost it
No.
Ugh, I need to play the update
first time?
I miss the gold old days when there werent so many aspects so I didn't need to unlock them all
Getting the blood for it all can take a while, whatever route you take for it
Im sad I made that meme and can't even share it
dm it to me!
done
I miss the old days when there weren't aspects and were 4 weapons 
"Golly I sure wish this game had less content"
Oh and only 2 zones
so that reroll thing in the mirror
is there a hard cap on how many times you can upgrade it
or does it just keep getting more expensive
authority is 10, persuasion I think is 4 or 5?
I think it would be cool if they just kept getting exponentially more expensive
is there a way to hide vers number?
heightened security makes late game traps SO deadly
yeah, they do a LOTTTTT
What does the calculated risk duo boon do again?
Slows all enemy projectiles by 40%.
ah, got it. so it was switched around from spent spirit
Yup.
Somebody know how to get 4th aspect of rail?
there's a pinned message in #h1-story-discussion
Lmao hitting ||Sans|| in ||Tartarus|| seriously end you run
It can, not always
Has anyone felt like the new Guan Yu hitbox has terrible registration? Multiple times I have felt like the indicator is right over an enemy but no damage
I noticed for mid range people too.
It almost feels like the opposite of the old hitbox lmao. Narrower than the indicator rather than larger
Yeah you are not the only one who notices. Some others and I myself did as well.
Just F10 in game, SGG is very responsive with fixes
I wouldn't be surprised if it was fixed already with the latest 20MB something patch
👍
yeah, it's pretty inconsistent, but it always hits on the left indicator line
in my experience
anyone else sad about the dark regen nerf
I'm sad but I thought it was by far the best especially when you get those darkness chests, if you happen to have a chaos boon for darkness increase or dark thirst it had hte potential to heal for over 100 hp
Oh what happened to it?
Has a lower hp convert rate so it's less strong
60% instead of 80%, iirc
I tried a erebus room in elysium and by god I regretted doing it, I thought what's the worst thing that can happen and felt like doing it because i haven't tried a erebus room in several months
flaming chariots around 8
megagorgon
elite butterfly
Yes it makes chthonic vitality more apppealing but I'd still take the darkness heal
Butterfly chariots?
I'm just imagining the soulcatchers riding round in a ||Macedonian Tau-Lambda|| now
small update today, anyone know what for?
Spewing butterflies everywhere as they go
cool
sorry butterfly chariots was a mixup by me
Mmm, I feel like that chariot name should be spoiler tagged? not sure
taste the power of my stand: ||Butterfly chariot-o||
@rough token done :)
True!
probably the loudest I laughed while playing
beautiful :D
I made a mistake of thinking I could take all 3 boss variations with zeus shield
I did not realize how hard 3rd boss variation would be with zeus shield
does anyone have a source or know the phrases Zagreus says ||to unlock each future aspect?||
check the pins in #h1-story-discussion
I think they wanted the phrases Zagreus says to unlock the Aspects like || Lucifer's: "I see you fall from heaven yada yada"||
@narrow hemlock
Maybe they have it.
I will include them when I get them 
Hm, thank you
uhh I am actually in bed and was about to sleep and happened to notice my phone had a notif lmao if you haven't gotten them by the morning I will do that
I think I have a couple in a dm somewhere but it's not all of them
Thanks, I appreciate it and will keep looking until you get to them!
I actually had everything but rail lines when I did a search so that's convenient
pinged in spoilers, if no one gives you rail later I'll grab it but otherwise gn 👋
oh thanks Ill check it out!
Anyone know how to unlock the new fated list with poseidon asking you to defeat theseus?
talk to poseidon, other than that no
@stray hatch you can press f10 in game to report a bug
oh you got to be joking... the one duo boon I still need to get is demeter x aphrodite - have 2 demeter boons, 1 aphro boon, and 1 athena boon. Just got the aphro x athena duo and the demeter x athena duo in two rooms HOORAY
Both from the non athena god 🙃
Okay, thanks!
Sure thing!
@crimson canopy only sticking to those two in your run or combinations that don't give you a Duo will make it a lot easier to find the Duo. 
random question: did a scroll get removed from the decoration shop? i remember there being achilles and one more, it's just achilles now
AFAIK there are (at least) 3 scrolls for Zag's room though they might be tied to relationship levels or something? I know ||aphrodite|| has a scroll and I think ||dionysus|| too - definitely have one hanging in my room and 2 offered by the contractor.
@high island had to grab athena boon and she only offered attack/cast/dash boon 😦
there's ||Achilles|| scroll, too
I haven't given aphrodite a second nectar but still got her scroll
Dionysis is a husbando tho
I want more pictures in the East Wing, but Wall-Scrolls work, too. 
I think we have enough portraits and landscapes, I'd rather have some more space to hang em around
would personally love to be able to hang all biome landscapes
@deep pivot let her fly away. She's going on an adventure. 
She's dead


Mmm-mm-mmurrrdderrrerrrr!!! 
What if Tisiphone is best friends with the Megagorgon.
And that's what she means.
Is there some condition i need to meet to be able to gift hades a second time? or is that not added to the game yet?
not available yet
ok
i made it through the 3rd boss ||asterius and theseus|| for the first time ever
and i instantly made it to ||hades|| right after that
i was so close, less than 50% left but didn't have any coin for death defiances
come on, dude
Keep it up! After every attempt you get closer
though tbh
||asterius theseus|| felt way harder than ||hades|| imo
could've been just that i had a really, really strong run
when you said 50% left, did you mean 50% of the first HP bar or total?
He deals twice as much damage as T&A though, and that spin attack is huge
exactly
what do you mean

Gee, don't spoil the surprise
Good job, Zepp 
he dissed the old man, I couldn't help it
Welcome to the best way to get gems
It feels like the amount of gems you can fish got nerfed
Also, good day or night to everyone!
by the way, what do i do with ambrosia?
same thing as nectar
You give the ambrosia to NPCs
good day/night (what is it down here anyways) to you as well
You wait and gift it when you really need it
it's a bit different
It unlocks more dialogue with people
In some cases,yeah
so i give it to whoever i like the most
For some characters though, you might unlock other things that go in your closet
Oh, about the fishies. I got 150+, but Poseidon ignores me and the Fates Prophesy. No need to give them away and pile up to 50 and then it will work or i encounter a bug?
with ambrosia?
Is dio zag's uncle or cousin?
cousin
Like he's mostly sloshed?
Yeah he's great
He sounds so relaxed
So those who doesnt give you a companion, is there benefit to give them extra nectar beyond the 1st one? Or just extra dialog?
new story, new quests
Oh , nice
is it me or is the spawn rate of|| tiny vermin|| higher in this patch? I encountered it once in all of my runs
then this patch I play and I've encountered it 3/4 times in two days
Hey, not to ask a stupid question
But which chambers are the boss fights in?
Like, numerically?
Furies: 15
Bone Hydra: 24
Champions: 36
Final Boss: Varies (51-70)
Those can also be potentially +1 room if you get Chaos right before the boss
has anyone heard of the % chance to have the ||steal option|| appear for charon?
Just got to Asphodel.....
And everything is finally staying
so
Damn
SMOOTH
gone are the days of everything beyond Tartarus with dropped frames
Am happ
@mystic nexus i had a bad one yesterday
-46% movement for 4 encounter for a boost in attack
OOF
my 2nd encounter was the tartarsauce boss
i lost all my deathdefiants
Better luck next run
that's the nice thing about roguelikes.
There's always another run.
i had to take a break yesterday cause i was somehow getting progressivly worse
started that night getting all the way to the end
ended that night dieing to the first boss
that sounds like nap time
sleeping is just a really long nap

its real big think hours now
getting my list ready for the QA
i think 90% of shall be asking for DUSA plush

lol naw. i got just basic questions about the future of the game stuff like cosmetics newer weapons and newer gods and such.
I'd like a dusa plush
the roadmap in game might answer some of those questions about the future of the game
is it on the discord page?
nope, its in the main menu of the game
...or cerberus
is https://hades.gamepedia.com/ still the most up to date wiki site?
for cerby it needs to be a 1:1 scale for a must buy
basically, there arent going to be any new weapons or olympians until the v1 launch
why is steam screenshot page of Hades is redirecting me to TF2 community tab page?
its the most up to date, but it is outdated as the update just came out
buy hades hats
ok I'm wrong
for sure, was just making sure. Was going to try to add a duo boon I just came across that isn't in it 🙂
the wiki editors are surely working on updating it 
Cerberus plush ? 
yes but it needs to be a 1:1 scale
I'm working hard on updating things to the new Blood Price update as I discover it in-game myself. 
Agree on the scale
Current project is the Well of Charon!
i like how one one run the first boon i got was a legendary
and it was from posedion for increased fishing %
yeah, thats a scripted event!
ive been trying to get it again for the ||chaos fish|| but it doesnt appear often... and when it does i dont get them 
at least i caught the slavug i was missing for the codex at last
true, havent got that chaos fish
i feel like i never see fishing points in asphodel
dang rare they are
oh right when i got it i spammed chaos gates
also, yeah you can get it again, the requirements are oceans bounty or sunken treasure
got to fish in one and got the jellyfish
i have got like 2 seamare in 20+ asphodel run
also, yeah you can get it again, the requirements are oceans bounty or sunken treasure
well then it is quite bad
seamare are elysium tho
does the wiki have an updated boons requirement list for rare boons or duos/legendaries
oops
oh
i have seen a few Chrustacean
slavug would be my old savefile
but non of the Flameater thou
if i get one more hellfish again im punching megaera in her stupid lookin blueberry face
too many hellfish mean you reacted to the fishing rod too late
i got like 50-50 Hellfish- Knuclehead
i reacted right as it goes under and its not jsut bobbing
animal crossing has taught me how to fish in this game
Is it possible to beat meg on the very first run of the game?? or Is it meant to fail? 😛
yes, but really hard hahaa
i think i beat her.
but had low health and no mid region fountain so i died quickly in lavaland
@sand stump yes it is LUL I think i replayed like 12 times before I almost did it No luck so far haha
@safe yoke The wiki's boon charts for the various requirements are not current. They were created for the patch just before the Technical Beta, and therefore the Blood Price, launched
@marble viper It is possible to complete an entire run on the first attempt. @terse geyser made it their mission for quite some time previously and managed it.
when i first started, it took me ~ 10 runs to start to beat her 50% of the time
yeah didnt take me as long cause i got used to her but then they really mixed it up when ||her sisters decided to drop by|| and that really threw a curveball for me
@hearty torrent oh, Well i gues I havea goal to reash then 😛 hehe
I don't think the requirements for the duo boons listed on the wiki have changed (except for the Athena x Aphrodite on that got reworked to Athena x Dionysus) but the new Boons, new Duos, and many old Boons have different requirements now.
im just trying to finish my minor prophecies list. i finished athena all the way
bruh that was me in early game
so much athena i RARELY saw zeus or dio
now im rarely seeing aphrodite and all her neekidness
@safe yoke same.. I restarted 10 times and 8 out of 10 onlt atheana haha I don't complaing but I was like damn 😛
On the First Run Athena is guaranteed to spawn as the first boon. While a few gods won't appear on the first run (the ones listed on the wiki as such are not accurate) some of them appear too, like Poseidon and Dionysus.
best begining run boon is hammer
ok, hehe Oh yaas! love the hammer 😛
If I picked up Zeus special and I got a special damage bonus from Chaos, would the special damage bonus apply to the zeus damage or only to the special?

For example with the bow, would the special bonus apply to the lightning or would it only apply to the arrows.
I just wish I always got barge of death
Not for its simplicity
but for its theme
Its just like...
DUN... DA DA DA DUN
So good
i swear supergiant games loves thier scripted ride fights.
i remeber playing alot of them in bastion
In any build I do I love to have the heart seekingg arrow ❤️ such a good add to a build 😛
Boat is so easy ngl
yeah but the barge ride is fun cause if you are decked out in boons it becomes a "im not trapped in here with you. youre trapped in here with me" moment
I always thought it was easy even when everyone thought it was hard 
yeah alot of people are stating that this newer update is "more difficult" and im like. naw it aint my skin it was bad boon rng
New update is more difficult
Like lol it's just buffs to enemies
It's objectively harder
that and ive been basing my picks off of minor prophecies so any boons that never syngergized with me before im taking
tbh i never noticed a spike in difficulty. but ive noticed im dealing more damage. specially to hydra boss heads
naw elysium got chariots and bomb chariots. and THATS what makes it harder.
bomb chariots are ez if you have ranged
Just buy the well item that ||specifically prevents flamewheels||
okay so i got best girl dusa so many nectar now her progress hearts has a keyhole on it. how do i progress?
@safe yoke that means there is an event that has yet to happen between you and dusa
just keep talking to her after runs
@carmine pecan It's essentially a Quest you unlock once your Affinity with that character has reached its maximum before the Locked Heart.
do you gain anything or more lore and stuff
Certain characters will grant you a new item, and it unlocks gifting them Ambrosia to eventually max out their Affinity meter.
i think ima just keep dying and playing to find sisyphus
please dont try to evade the swear filter!
?
Not you, Vortex.
oh
On that note, is exclaiming "blood and darkness!" okay?
well, if you didnt get zapped by proxy just now, i guess it is :]

I'm a rebel, I say plasma and shadows
im in the wrong game so i say "rip and tear"
Hey, i have a weird question, but there was an item i was saving up for before in the contractor item list, then i took a break until this past update, and i think its gone? It was titled "Portrait, Lady" i think, but i don't rightly remember. Have they taken out items from the Contractor?
yeah i noticed soemthing too. i think i had an option for a aphrodite poster and thats now gone
That item has been replaced yes. I believe it is the only one to have done so.
Aphrodite poster should definitely still be there, though its requirements changed so you might not meet them yet.
wow, i bought the aphrodite poster back when it was 500 obol in a charon well
right? sooo far... i have 8k gems and i dont think i can come close to buying everything...
oh definitely. Several items got a decent whack cheaper this update, but with all the new cosmetics being so expensive in their own right...
if only titans blood and diamonds werent so hard to come by i wouldnt be so afraid of using them
Do you have to upgrade the contractor's table again to access the higher tier construction again? Like the diamond purchasing darkness gives +5 max health line of upgrades
Ohmigosh the House Contractor can be Employee of the XXXX now! 
Aww they deserve it
Yes you need to purchase the Deluxe Desk to purchase the Greater Room Rewards and Infernal Gates now, but it doesn't prevent the option from benefitting you if you had purchased them before the update. (though they will be hidden until you buy it)
idk i think he didnt really deserve getting employee of the XXXX when that belongs to cerby
Urgh... I was scraping together my diamonds for the nectar upgrade...
Best boy is always the best employee, the Wall just shows second best
i honestly dont know what upgrade to get. i got the dark thirst upgrade giving me more gems ontop of more darkness but after that i dont know what to get and im scared of wasting gems
Vintage Nectar is, imo, definitely the best option among the five. Though Darker Thirst is so nice for resource grinding...
yeah thats why i picked it up cause i like avoided gems almost altogether cause i got SO LITTLE of them before
A free Pom for each Nectar (also works on Dio's boon nectar, though not bought nectar i think) is a true blessing.
I do really wish they would increase the amount of gems you get from each room reward.
That feels a touch op in the beginning of the game tho so I get why it's so few
Maybe scale them according to heat/number of runs?
number of runs sure. but maybe let it cap, then increase cap by using heat?
granted i have yet to get heat maybe cause i havent beaten final boss yet
can someone explain to me how the ask-supergiant event works? Will the #ask-supergiant channel be open when the time comes, and then we're supposed to put our questions there before it is closed again? Or do we put our questions somewhere else, and only the Supergiant team puts the answers there, after they take our questions from somewhere else?
Just looked through the chatlog, looks like it gets unlocked during the Q&A, we send our queries into the void, it gets locked again, and the Supergiant staff team go through each question and ping the asker.
MAKE OFFERINGS TO THE PANTHEON OF SUPERGIANT FOR THEY MAY HEAR OUR PLEAS FOR DUSA PLUSH
🙏
Hey, I've been meaning to ask someone, the symbol on Charon's Obol, and many other places, I can't find anything on what it's called or if there's any significance to real world Greek mythology, anyone have any idea?
It's Hades' moustache. That's it
I should've known. If I had such a glorious mustache I'd definitely have it commemorated on any surface I could find
see thats what supergiant doesnt want you to know. weve already know the true ending and the reason zag is trying to escape.
hes trying to run away form the fact he'll never be able to sport such a glorious olympian mustache and attempts to leave hell.
He can try all he wants, but being deprived of that mustache is a hell in and of itself
sooo I just pressed f10 thinking it would still bring up the bug report screen
it tabbed me out of the game and when i tabbed back in it made the screen a light blue just light blue I can't see anything
oh besides the save icon
did I crash the game?
bug reporter did pop up
if you close the bug reporter i think it might fix itself?
send the report then everything is normal it happened to me
yea it fixed itself
sooo whats the chances of getting halting defiance?
or specifically defiance from chaos?
As Chaos' Legendary, it's quite "rare" to get it to spawn.
As someone who has been scouring the game's code for wiki editing purposes, I can definitely tell you that specific %s for getting Rare, Epic, and Legendary boon spawn chances is not readily available.
interesting
would you happen to know how to unlock guan spear?
asking for a streamer i am watching now
that information has been pinned in #h1-story-discussion
ok cool thanks
Started to do 32 heat for the first time after >100 hours of the game for the Skelly challenge.
Can't get out of Tartarus. Feels just like the beginning when I kept dying to Megaera.
It will take some time to get used to faster attacks. The weapon of choice (the spear) doesn't really help either.
The community has been loving the new difficulty from the Doomstone mini-boss from what I can tell, yes. Especially with how quickly the other new mini-boss can be taken down.
I also like it but its kicking my ass lul
@rigid reef If you want some help with high heat runs, both #h1-builds-and-combat and #h1-high-heat-strategies would love to help you.
am i the only one whose game lags?
still lagging?
yep, and i can't play if it lags, i lose health easily
i don't know if the game itself is the problem or idk greatest reflex but... yep
the hydra whacked me, to tell you
didn't lose dd or anything but jesus
focus bull first
no no not just you
