Yeah!
They are really fast in seeing it too. I have an anecdote (so it can be coincidence) but I reported two bugs at lunch, they were fixed by dinner.
It's wild. Some devs also interact often with players to determine bugs. Love SGG 
hell yeah
ive loved sgg since i discovered pyre!
it took a while but i was finally able to get "deflected" on the f10
its actually really consistent, you should check it out before its patched out
You don't need to time it :3 but it's nice that you did
oh lol whoops
hello everyone, just joined. i'd like to say that i am very bad at the game
this game so good lmao
i am also very bad at this game so i get where you're coming from
being bad at it is half the fun
I is also bad at the video game
also welcome on in ^_^
welcome to the club
||the eternal rose does that just make the first boon i find from aphrodite?||
yeah, it also increases the chance of rarer ones
i just havenet found any that are better than the tooth tbh
you'll probably utilize god trinkets more when you're looking for specific dialogue from them or working toward a build and want to force them to appear
You'll find some are more useful once you get more comfortable
My go to is the cosmic egg, usually
Although I must admit the shackle is very nice for starting runs
It's strong enough to allow me to get to the final boss despite doing a no boons* run
i just got psoideons call is this like a 1 time use nuke or?
Anybody else thinks that the price for final Mirror upgrade is too high?
or psoidens aid*
No, it lets you surfing on the floor
but like when i use it, is there like a cd or?
You need to accumulate charge from dealing damage. The charge will expire as soon as you’re done with the chamber
You can stockpile it so, use it whenever you could
Actually, I think taking damage also increase the charge
If you look at the bar below your heath gauge, you should see that it fragment into section. Each section is for a single use
so it only charges in combat?
@mystic sphinx Yep
However, if you wait for the whole bar to fill, you can use them all at once for a more powerful effect
Speaking of god keepsakes, I found that Hermes can override them and appear anyway despite me having another trinket ready. Is that a feature?
Hermes is faster than any one else!
But actually, his boons are different from the other Gods, so he doesn't count when considering "first boon from"..
your charge on the trinket will remain despite hermes interrupting. he has a comment for each god he arrives before
ranges from 'oh this god was looking for you' to 'they'll never beat me lol'
Haha, I'm not even surprised, SGG make comments for everything and I love it
tfw? What is that stand for?
internet slang, that feel/feeling when
Thanks
Tfw you don't know what tfw means
Everyone learns something new every day.
Obligatory xkcd
is heroic like the best quality/
yes, and can only be gotten through special means (exchanges and eurydice)
well i just got one from dion and its for the dash seems kinda op 
That is very much exactly what I was thinking of when I said that.
how much does it do
Heroic Drunken Dash should be 5 damage.
that's pretty good
it does 5 damage but itstacks to 5 almost instantly if they stand on it
and with the double dash thing its kinda easy
just upgraded it to lvl 2
Wait a second.
Is Hades really DRM-free on Steam? You don't need to run the Steam client to run it?
If that's the case, I really don't know why I've been waiting for it to appear on GOG or somewhere like that.
twice this run ive gotten +80 max health from infernal troves and it didnt give me it 
I thought maybe this was just for the time being, and maybe just on the Epic store. But now I've seen a few places where the devs themselves seem quite adamant about it.
In which case, great news and.
throws money at screen.
Every other indie game I have on Steam that I've played recently has DRM.
Yeah, I imagine it's fewer and fewer. Although looking at actual lists, quite a few have accumulated over the years.
Something like so: https://steam.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_DRM-free_games
And the other three Supergiant ones are on there.
Just tried to play Bastion and then exit out of Steam, it closed Bastion.
Probably have to do it the other way around.
And actually also probably move the game folder elsewhere first (and maybe remove the Steam API files from it).
I'm not 100% on the details, though. Will try it with Hades in a bit, just need to download it and reboot.
Both excellent games, of course.
Wanna move this to Off Topic?
Oh, yeah. Sensible.
Uh... question about Charon and a prophecy. ||I beat him twice in a row in two consecutive runs and it doesn't say I've done it...|| Is this a bug?
maybe you have to talk to hermes?
i really should use F10 more.. yesterday tried Unshakable Mettle from Athena/Poseidon, that prevents from being stunned.. it worked during redacted fight, but still Zag said "Can't move!", after being exposed to stun effect. redacted noticed that as well. Strange to hear "can't move" from a guy, rushing around with Hermes' epic Greater Haste and ignited ichor..
Depression sucks.
Extremely, but that's more for #off-topic-discussion
Oh sorry, I was just making a joke.
Alright, time to give this gem of a game a try.
Expect me back in #h1-tech-support shortly.
maybe he's being sarcastic 
it's very zagreus to say "can't move" when he's zipping around
Hermes would approve that
Sure, but then you will have a lot to explain to Meg, Than, Hypnos, or even Hades.
Zag to Than and Hypnos: "I'm your dad now"
Worth it.
I lost my streak
:/
Freaking bow
I'm like 4 mins slower on bow than on any other weapon
maybe I should stop using chiron
hi guys, got this dumb problem with steam installig vc redist package, is there any solution? launched hades directly with .exe , but i want to get rid of this microsoft stuff
Maybe playing with bow is very slow ,but it teach you how to Play safe. On the begining i was fighting with sword but i sucked and then i switched on bow and ended at elysium :p
guys
is there a guide on how to unlock the new shield aspect and the new hexagryph aspect ?
You have to unlock the spear 4th aspect first, then recieve the awakening phrases from ||Chaos and Zeus||
It's just a matter of keep talking to everyone. All of the awakening phrases come from gods, just keep looking.
The bow one comes from ||Artemis||
It's Chaos, it happens
Legendary boons usually require one god main boon (attack, special or cast) and one upgrade for those boons before they can appear. Some have more specific requirements, but it's mostly just this
You need to unlock all weapons before you can use titan blood for anything other than the broker
@brisk trail instructions for getting the 4th aspects can be found pinned in #h1-story-discussion
Where can i report bugs i found a visual bug on the text of Brilliant Riposte
The in game bug reporter (F10) @brisk trail
Keep talking to her
Since when did they changed Chain Shot to not bounce off walls?
if you see that again, you may want to F10 it! seems a wee bit out of place ^^
it's really C h i l l
hey guys, recently beat hades and now i want to farm titan bloods and diamonds so i'm looking for really good builds, can someone help with that?
i beat the game twice with aspect of hera + dionysus cast and the artemis dash attack damage bonus but i cant seem to find a build as good as that with another weapon
i like the twin fists with demeter or aphrodite's attack and athena's dash, and anything else that helps apply the privileged status buff
wow, i'm doing what you said; i currently just have the aphrodite attack lv3 and demeter dash and it's going great
i used to always pick gods' favorite and currently i'm surprised by privileged status' damage bonus
One build that never fails me is pos cast + demeter duo
bonus points zeus and privileged status effects!
Can replace pos for dionysus also, cast builds are so fun
why arent images allowed but links that show images are 
Guys please tell me i'm not the only one that hears dem's dash gust like a minecraft zombie
why not just allow images
Guys please tell me i'm not the only one that hears dem's dash gust like a minecraft zombie
oh my god i just tried it and it really is so similar
more of a discord thing riley
because allowing images easily opens it up for people to abuse (the majority wouldn't) but still it's something that could be abused easily
does the plum(the keepsake you get from hermes) supposed tp not work in the temple of styx
to*
or is it a bug
The plume (and Than's keepsake too, by the way) function only in the last rooms, as they'd go off constantly otherwise.
I think it does level up, it just doesn't get a bonus from the small chambers.
thanks
https://prnt.sc/tbqv1h my highest trove yet
aoe spear with heroic dionysis so its like 12dmg per sec on everyone around me that stacks 
In order to perfect catch, do you need to predictively press e, or can you just press it quick enough once the flash appears? Because either my reaction time is terrible, or once you see the flash it’s already too late
You can react to the flash and get it.
The best conditions for getting a perfect catch are when the first three bobs are fake-outs. That means you know the next one invariably will be the catch. However, the time between the third and fourth bob is random, which means you still need to rely on your reaction skills.
Hey, I bought Hades during a sale on the Epic store and yet I added it to my steam because of controller support for my DS4.
I'm a bit sad I can't share this awesome game with some of my friends and for each update I have to open the epic store first which I usually only do once in a week on thursdays for the free game. Is there an option to 'upgrade' my epic store license to a steam license without paying a second time in full?
No, kain
i was told you can share your save at least
190 ms average after 50 tries. Not my personal best, but decent. 😅
yes, saves are the same
you'd have to manually transfer the save file over but it will work across both
whats the talk about perfect catch? does the fish rarity depend on reaction speed?
or do people just miss it?
you can actually do the fishing minigame without watching. the bobbling of the bait is just a throw-off. if the bait is pulled under it does make a certain sploosh sound. when you hear it, press the button
There are different techniques floating around regarding fishing, and they are some that rely on sound while others rely on sight. It's a matter of preference, I guess - I tried sound, but I am getting thrown off by ambient noises.
i never miss a catch that way
The sooner to catch the fish, the higher rarity the fish will be. The time window of fishing is:
Less than 0.34 second: Perfect catch. Guaranteed to catch a Rare fish. 5% chance to catch a Legendary fish 0.34 second to 0.68 second: Good catch. 5% chance to catch a Rare fish. After 1 second: fail with a "Too Late" message.
What always confused me about this description is what happens in the 0.68s<t<1s timeframe.
I haven't seen "good catch" either. It's Perfect Catch or Catch for me.
TIL there are fish in chaos gates... and I visit him whenever I get the chance and use the chaos egg for every run at ashpodel
No chance to catch a rare fish, I would say.
I don't know. I never see the "good catch" anyway. It's always perfect catches. 
5% also seems off. I have caught too many Scyllascions for that to be accurate.
chaos use they/them pronouns, btw :]
Yeah, I've no idea where that data is from anyway.
I've actually never seen "good catch". I've seen "catch" a small number of times.
good catch is just the normal catch, i think
that should probably be fixed
I still dont know if im too slow or
Input lag, maybe.
I know when I play fighting games on my keyboard, I can't react to some things that I can react to on pad or on fight stick.
you can't fish in sisyphus' chamber, also, right? theres never water there 
aw
ill fix that as well
is it impossible to stream a hades playthrough here? :(
i'm in the middle of an interesting run
yeah, there is no voice channel, that would get too chaotic to moderate with the amount of members here
That's some thick silken gloves.
How would you moderate a stream of a hades run through anyway?
i meant moderate a voice channel. 
you could always stream on twitch and link it in #self-promotion!
Is anyone else having issues with the kinetic launcher upgrade?
the hitbox is minuscule
@native atlas yeah, it feels really strange
the highest heat I've beat the game on was 15
sometimes it looks like the projectile just passes through enemies
no no, I had no boon and it still worked that way
is there any ETA on when cloud saves coming to the EGS version of hades?

I had a run with the Rail in which I mostly grinded out the wins until finally phase 2 Redacted got me.
I remember when i lost all my dds in ||first phase|| and had like 70 hp and went like YOU KNOW WHAT IM GONNA DIE ANYWAY and i almost beat him
I just had the most amazing run that anyone has ever had, i got the plum keepsake, the duo boon from zues and Aphrodite witch makes the call auto charge 1% every 0.2 seconds but reduces the max to 25%, the hermes boon that gives you 30% dodge chance and finally the germes boon that gives you 45% dodge chance for 15 seconds every time you use a call. Guess what happens when you combine all of them over 100% dodge chance i litarly couldn't get hit
I mean, there is a dodge cap. But still, very nicely done!
?
I dont think so
Maybe i got lucky with the final boss fight cues i did get hit quite a bit but took no damage
Ah, keep the name in spoiler tags in this channel please
Or just say final boss
o7
Sounds pretty fun! Dodge does cap at I think 80% and/or it’s multiplicative so adding 30% to 45% for example doesn’t exactly equal 75%.
Good to know
Doesn’t mean it lacks potency in a build haha
woo! first time downing ||hades|| without him touching me a single time :3
Final boss is a spoiler in this channel please ^.^
Congrats though!
@azure jasper
o7
ty
Yeah, I think first time I did that I think I had a quick charging Athena call. It's not easy :D
@brisk trail press f10 ingame to report bugs
it's reported, thank you
what projectiles are non deflectable?
All projectiles are deflectable
because I remember the ||charon fight|| projecties couldn't be deflected
Beams
Beams are not projectiles though
Beams aren't projectiles
Neither is the skull explosion
I think you can technically deflect shockwaves too but it just saves you from the dmg
butterflies aren't deflectable either
The spawners are called ||soul catchers||, but do they catch the souls of humans or butterflies? 
Does the cyan Lernie barrage count as projectiles?
is that the one with ranged spikes
I mean the attack following a head smash that comes from straight above.
Is that the falling rocks? Most attacks in the game that have those circle AOE markers are deflectable, but those seem too fast from my limited experience.
I was probably playing on FO2 when I last saw it tho
I never tried to deflect them, but next time I happen to have Athena call, I can safely try.
Shockwaves can't be deflected.
You can use Athena's Aid for invincibility, but it won't deflect them.
I don’t mean the shockwave, but that avalanche stuff.
I doubt they can since they don’t come from an enemy directly but rather from above but test it for science!
Somebody else said shockwaves.
Oh yea infernape was talking about the mechanics of it looks like
I've never been able to deflect the rubble that falls down vs ||White Lernie||. Not that I recall.
Maybe it's possible to deflect them at just the perfect timing before they fall on you with perhaps Divine Dash, and they just fall too fast for that to be reliable. But I don't know if that's a thing.
The way deflect works is that you can't deflect attacks that hit you. You have to deflect before they hit you, or you need to get out of the way or be invincible and deflect.
possible they just act like the circles in theseus's fight?
i don't think you can deflect those
the god ones he summons
Oh. Yeah, can't deflect those.
Or like Megaera's ground AOE. Damage from below would be an unorthodox way to depict damage from falling objects from above but I that it's probably accurate. also like ||Sisyphus' Summon.||
I haven't gotten quotes from examining the employee board since the first time I examined it after the 06/30 update. Anyone else?
Same here. Reported it already.
Same.
Yeah, I reported it too. I was hoping for an update last night to fix it, I'm expecting to get someone new on the board soon and I don't want to miss the quote for them.
Just got hypnos for the first time but zag didn't say anything. Hope the quotes get cycled.
his death quips? they dont. they only play once
well generally speaking,
much of the dialogue in the game is unique and doesnt repeat
aw, then i probably missed a bunch by examining them and not realizing its a bug. :V
is there anything stronger then 3 stone shot of dionis + cold wine by hera bow?
did they nerf athenas dash? final boss was spearing me mid dash with the golden shields around me
does it no longer deflect melee or something?
@neon jackal I actually explained this a few messages above. 
The way deflect works is that you can't deflect attacks that hit you. You have to deflect before they hit you, or you need to get out of the way or be invincible and deflect.
For that attack specifically, you need to get out of the way (to the side) to deflect it. Or if you're far enough away, you can deflect the tip of the attack.
did that change last patch because i used to be able to do that pretty consistently, thats the reason most of my succesful clrears were with divine dash
Also, final boss identity is a spoiler, so please change that to "final boss" or spoiler-tag it. 
No, it's been working like that for quite some time. Deflect doesn't make you invincible. What happens is that deflected attacks can no longer hurt you. But if you would deflect only at the same time they already hit you, then you've already been hit and can no longer deflect that attack.
Hi, just wondering, why did the screenshot I posted earlier got deleted? Did I post it at the wrong channel, or am I not supposed to post Hades related screenshots here?
wrong channel, you can repost it in #h1-victory-boasting!
Okay, thanks. A note when it was deleted would have been nice though
But thanks for the heads up
gotcha, spoilers arent allowed in this channel for future reference
it either some interaction between boons or something changed, because i went from usually clearing with 1 maybe 2 deaths defiances to eating three even when i had the plume all the way to 20% plus hermes 15% dodge which also final boss seemed to ignore atleast in the wide swipe
Sure thing
Does anyone know for sure that the first aspect you need to unlock to get the others is ||Guan Yu|| or is that not true?
Okay, thank you!
sooo this happened https://gyazo.com/a1f3a269b204225438bdb7a7aad36b0a
Someone's popular
i'd reroll if i were you
Yeah I don't see anything good here either
Random Thought. Was there ever a reason why there wasnt a Gaia in the boons? Like. I know that she is in Charon's shop and such but why not have Earth Boons with Rooted type effects to keep an enemy totally still for a second without stunning them or other boons that give benefit when you find gemstones For added attack boosts health etc for those who dont use gemstones or avoid the rooms? Just a thought
i think the gods were largely chosen based on relation with zag + utility within the game. so like some are arguably less directly involved in the main ongoing drama but theyre still an olympian and they can offer interesting playstyle with their boons
is my take
@alpine mural Reroll them 
Gaia's a titan, everyone involved is a god of some sort, or below
well, Chaos is above all but that's an exception
Titans are just the previous generation of gods, they’re still divinity
They ought to still be able to give boons and whatnot in theory
there's also a somewhat spoilery explanation as to why we don't get any help from the titans
Like
I’ve always wondered where the big distinction people do came from, titans are just god grandpas
the explanation being that ||humans have abandoned them||
Also i wouldn’t call the titanomachy a spoiler, it’s common knowledge to most people that have some degree of greek myth knowledge
they're a bit more metal
ooh
not general mythology
Also kinda curious, Prometheus still exists in hades lore, right?
I think sisyphus mentions him in a dialog
kind of, Aphrodite also references him
Olympians themselves name drop titans here and there
Cool
I guess he could be an option for a titan boon if they ever added one, if Heracles is a shade then he did his tasks already, which means Prometheus is already free
i feel like trying to guess the timeframe of when the game takes place is a bit of an exercise in futility, esp after some of the new ||ares lines added for new aspects. the way he speaks of beowulf aspect implies he at the very least knows of beowulf himself, for instance||
I didn't get that impression at all
gods make various references to the aspects you wield, some sound more familiar with em than others
||"Is that the fire-eating shield of the great warrior Beowulf, which you have there? I knew the Fates had plans for it, but I did not expect for you to be a part!" how do you not get the impression ares is aware of beowulf, from how that's worded||
he doesnt just address the shield and how it looks
I don't think the game takes place in a mortal time? I sort of assumed that when you've got the history of the future on pay per view everything's fair game.
same way Achilles and Zagreus comment on ||Lucy being a weapon of patricide||: it "says so" on the weapon
Hey Does anyone know how Boon rolling works? Like does it roll for Rare and if it succeeds then it rolls for rare OR are they sperate rolls all together?
each boon is independently rolled for rarity except in cases where the rarity is fixed, such as when you have the yarn
and you're guaranteed at least 1 boon you haven't seen in your previous roll
so is is like a set probability? and the mirror buffs just augment that probability? kinda wanna know how favor and pride upgrades affect the roll
I don't remember the math but if you do a run with all the rarity talents on and off, the difference becomes crystal clear
in the sense that you don't wanna trade your blue/purple boosters for the alternatives unless you're doing something wacky
do you know where i can find the math? kinda wanna know how favor and pride work and if i should take foresight and legacy upgrades.
dunno, check the wiki
Is there a way to check how many enemies you've killed throughout the course of playing?
Ares ||has told me I slayed more than 1,000 and I now have the minor prophecy, and I wanna see how close I am||
there's an item in Zagreus' room that does that
there’s an item that does that, but it has to be unlocked through the contractor’s desk
so what is the consensus on KB&M or Controller
does the athena ares duo boon deal extra damage or less than the full doom would?
Use what feels most comfortable for you I guess
i want to know which one is the best way to play though
i noticed all speedrunners are using controller
the only time it really matters is for the lobbing bombs like festive fog and rail gun
where kb&m are better
otherwise it really shouldnt matter
you can turn on/off auto-target
I get stuck on random objects from time to time as kbm, but like I personally am fine with it
bet stuck on objects?
There are some random spots I get stuck in
It's just me thinking I can dash one direction on a wall, but there's a hitbox there lol
If that feels comfortable to you
go for it
I guess I shouldn't be trying to fight while hugging walls anyways lol
Theres an interesting thing where if you have held down a directional key and press dash, but that dash would take you ina direction that doesn't make sense, the game instead interprets the dash as the direction that the mouse is facing even if you have it set under directional key dashes
I just got this gamee and Hades' voice is so good to listen to i love this SO MUCH
Hades best dad
isnt hades blue and rucks?
I dunno that I'd go so far as to say best dad...
no i mean the voice actor
Sure ain't Zeus
isnt it Logan?
dunno off the top of my head, probably says in the in-game credits
lol agreed best dad
Yeah Hades is Blue
Logan Cunningham
Also does Charon, Achilles, Narrator, Poseidon
Maybe im missing someone cant remember
Oh also Asterius
That's the aphro/ares duo right? Basically a target with both weak and doom takes multiple hits from doom before it dissapears with the normal proc. You can also notice it visually if you pay attention.
turns doom into dot
Not that great for damage, I've heard, but great for keeping up Privileged Status since doom normally only lasts 1 second
yeah
Omfg, I hit the big boss room of elysium! The recent performance update actually made the area relatively lag free for me!
I still died bc I never faced them before tho 💀
Also, "dash deflect" and "attack deflect" boons are an ideal combo.
I had a weird dream where Zagreus is doing trivia about Hypnos and Thanatos and the only thing stuck on when I woke up is that Hypnos likes lemons and Thanatos likes club sandwiches.
valid
new canon
Elysium gave me some lag once when I get a bunch of structures break and projectiles at once
Anyone know what's up with the Sea-God's Spite fated list task? I've beaten the extreme measures theseus several times, even conched for Styx to get Poseidon, and still no progress
at that point I'd probably f10 it, might just be a bug
this also isn't the place to discuss stuff like that. stuff like that should be discussed in the Hades modding server, or some other unofficial server
(thank you for doing that though! we appreciate wiki updates ^.^)
sorry
no, I figured everything out fine
aight
@inland dock so you haven't unlocked the tartarus fountain chamber at the contractor yet? because that was the change; that it shouldn't be a boon that shows up prior to unlocking it
it doesn't mean you can't get it chronologically before the fountain chamber if you have unlocked it
during a run
is there rhyme or reason to the angle that ||your girlfriend attacks when you summon her|| or is it random
we were trying to figure that out a while back, don't know what the verdict was, sorry
It’s parallel to Zag’s shoulders/facing direction I believe
But that might have changed with stuff like ||Sisyphus|| having more “targeting.”
wait it's possible to examine the employee board?
didn't know about that since tried first time back in January and failed
It's new to the Blood Price
had one a while ago when ||dusa|| was on my board, unlocked a cute convo afterwards
I have a doubt...
Can I suggest nee things here?
Like new Gods to offer the Boons?
You can suggest stuff like that in #hades-feedback , though the devs have said they're not planning on adding any more gods
Sad...
I and a friend would like to see Hestia (and Apollo) in the Game 
@upper ledge that sounds like a bug, try and report that in-game with f10
Also, I just had a run where I didn't even use my weapon much! It was bc I was running a heaven's vengeance/thunder dash/static discharge build (with greatest reflex thrown in for spammability) build
Anyways, I'll post my build later but it was viable enough to get me to the || Hades boss fight || point
And then I died bc first attempt+tired
Nice job on getting that far ^.^ And that sounds like a solid build
I'm just into cherry-tapping (was also doing something similar on a smaller scale in transistor lol)
Also, I just met Thanatos on my last run and uh. I'm guessing there's a history here?
Anyways, there's something distinctly satisfying about taking bosses out in 5 seconds bc dashing by them hits, there's that retribution damage, and there's that damage boost. Like, I was chilling with my two death defiances up till the elysium end point! Which is grand for me bc trashtop/one hand with nerve damage.

Hey have they ever talked about whether they intend on making/porting Hades for Switch at some point
Ports will be discussed/revealed after 1.0.
Makes sense
I play this game religiously. The only thing that would make it better is if I could play it on the go 🙂
Hello Darkness my old friend
+15 hp I guess 
a bit more, thanks to Aphrodite
not sure if it's spoiler-worthy but whoever are Eurydice's and Orpheus' voice actors... they both have amazing singing voices
Darren Korb and Ashley Barret.
would I be allowed to ping them to tell them that?
really...? then who are ashbarrett#3822 and Korbinian#0774 ?
They don't show up when I search...?
I literally just scrolled through the members list
Huh, they didn't show up right away when I searched
That was weird
I don't know for sure about pinging them
please don't put it in that channel, that's not what the channel is for
yeah that's gameplay stuff
Fair enough o7
but tweeting would work really well, i net they'd appreciate it
@glossy mauve nevermind about the feedback part xD
^.^
seriously though, I love the good riddance song
Oh, absolutely
even when it's just the instrumental part, I can still hear their voices
do all the songs have lyrics or just that one?
One or two other definitely have lyrics, don't think all of them
hopefully 1.0 will
will the Final Expense payback mix be included in the soundtracks that people have already bought/received?
I am currently adding prereqs to the wiki pages
Should be done tonight, and I have a system for automatically updating when patches come out
Francesca Hogan voices Eurydice in dialogue. Ashley Barrett sings.
soo i just pressed F10 to report a bug right after i defeated the third biome boss, and it's doing the thing where the game is now a black screen again. i'm worried if i force stop the game it won't have saved and will automatically give up.... any advice?
hmm
like
the ambrosia had just appeared
might not have even been all the way through teh appearing animation
sooo....it might be ok??
is there a way i can salvage the run save data
idk who knows
there is 3 options : auto give up. game saved before picked up ambrosia or after or fighting with boss all over again if you want to play game without doing nothing on filess
i'm happy to fight the boss again, i'd be less happy to have to do the entire run again
but idk what to do
daaamn if only i could just take back my bug submission
too late
i clicked stop
yolo
damn it won't shut down
ffff i lost the whole run lol
rip
that was run #150 too
ah well... maybe i should save run #150 for 1.0 launch lol. that's already a lot of runs
gods romance when
I mean theres already some nice subtext
joining the appreciation of Darren's and Ashley's talent, i want also to notice the work of translators in the last update. I was not expecting Good riddance to be translated, even more so, poetically precise. Really good job.
Btw about darren. Is Orpheus voice acted by darren or only He is singing?
oh god the prereqs for black out are weird
Orpheus has two voice actors, one for speech and one for song.
One of each:
- Peer Pressure, Numbing Sensation, Bad Influence, Drunken Strike, Drunken Flourish, or Dionysus' Aid
- Trippy Shot or High Tolerance
Now that you mention it, why Trippy Shot OR High Tolerance? The only way to create Festive Fog is the cast.
never really liked dio’s legendary
i find that lategame bosses are too mobile to be in festive fog often
Trippy Shot is a requirement for High Tolerance.
How it is described, it would later be possible to swap Trippy Shot out for a different cast after getting High Tolerance, and still get Black Out. That makes the entire buildup moot.
The info is pre-Blood Price, so I don't know if it even is that way anymore.
I'm pretty sure @hazy hatch is adding all the current requirements to the wiki.
yeah I noticed it because I was updating the table
pulled it straight out of LootData.lua
did forget to go actually check some of the non-boon requirements with my script but I'll do that tomorrow.
Hermes is real messed up rn tbh
That's not a very nice thing to say. Lord Hermes has been a good friend and cousin. 
well it's mostly because he has like 4 broken icons and at least 1 missing trait on the wiki
but in the data file he's allowed to get bad news off of quick reload so IDK what's up with that
oh, no, I mean "he's messed up" in the sense that a dude who gets hit in the head when trying to open a door is messed up
very sad

If an enemy type is so hated you release an item that removes them why not just take that enemy out of the game?
i wouldnt say hated
just annoying
theyre not really unfair from a gameplay perspective
But they released an item that removes the enemy as far as I know there are no other enemies that have an item that directly removes them from the spawn pool
Just remove the enemy if there needs to be an item in the game that removes them what's the point of that enemy being around? Just create a new enemy
elysium just isnt the same without flame wheels
Chariots and flame wheels are the reason Elysium is garbage just not as bad as Styx
plus flame wheel release seems more like an easter egg than anything considering you rarely see it
big difference between permanent removal and one out of twenty runs sometimes removal
yeah, i thought it was like a joke item
the amount of times ive had to reroll for it to appear.... ;__;
If it was a joke item if when you saw it it costed zero gold but it also cost money when you see it
it costs 15, thats barely anything
plus also flame wheels arent terribly difficult to avoid
theyre loud and you can easily outspeed them
Flame wheels aren't as much of a problem as the chariots are
and elysium has tons of furniture to crash into
are we not talking about flame wheels
the real enemy of elysium are corners you cant dash through
flame wheel release doesnt turn off chariots
That's what I'm saying is flame wheels aren't as big as a problem I'd rather have a chariot release
wasnt ur point that if we can turn off flame wheels temporarily why not remove them from the game
Oh yeah the items in the game there was obviously complaints about them I don't personally think they're a huge problem but if the developers were like oh we should put an item in that people might get and they can turn off this enemy what's the point of having the enemy around?
yeah thats the thing the flame wheel release is pretty obviously more an easter egg than anything else
in terms of a gameplay perspective theres no reason to take away flame wherls
I took away flamewheels in my 40 heat run today its too good to pass up 😂
I hate them
ngl they are funny on low heats
MEOW
Yeah, I don't see the problem with the item. It's a slippery slope fallacy. Just because they think the item could be useful and people would want to buy it doesn't mean the shop needs to always offer it or the enemies be completely removed.
Their design is really good. They keep you on your toes and require creativity to deal with, and they prepare you for a similar attack from ||Asterius||.
That they end some runs isn't bad design.
The challenge is what makes the game engaging.
Someone know how can i get aspect of beowulf? ._.
Check the pinned messages in #h1-story-discussion.
Okey, ty <3
Maybe that item can be useful if you got Chaos' curse that prevents you from dashing
i felt so dumb that i spent 5 titan blood on fist, expecting a new aspect
Yeah, just clear 2.25 times with them, and you'll have the Titan Blood back. 
Are there any up to date wikis?
https://hades.gamepedia.com/Hades_Wiki
Is as up to date as it gets
So im new but that weapon upgrade that makes you basically have lifesteal i feel is super strong, just me?
Can literally face tank hydra atleast
cursed slash?
it's good but you can't face tank everything
final boss can 1 - 2 shot you down a DD if you're not careful
Redacted packs a punch
But super good with Athena tho
Slap on attack speed increase, time to deflect the world
Slap on flurry strike you mean
Oh I forgot about that
Hold LMB to win
Not familiar with hammer for base sword, I use ||excal||
i have a shield run atm where my +% to dash strike damage is 258
Makes me almost consider turning Heightened Security back on
Dude that thing is so punishing for just 1 Heat
I'm trying to run away from Shield bro in Elysium and get smacked with a near death arrow
Hydra room hurts
how many bosses are there currently?
4 main bosses at the moment, 1 secret I think?
Maybe +.5 because of a certain miniboss encounter
My favorite final boss is of course Zagreus' stubborness
did anyone ever test out how blackout works on Hera's bow with Dionysus attack? Do the next two festive fogs get boosted damage?
@torpid walrus they probably do
@cold marsh im pretty sure you just have to do 3 escape attempts and talk to him
that's what i've read but i haven't been prompted to talk to him
eeh sometimes it's like that. Sooner or later it will trigger
Does anyone know the specific number of Titan Blood to use in a weapon before it can reveal it's 4th aspect?
||5?||
It's different between aspects
Sorry between weapons not aspect
For example you need ||5|| for the sword but for the spear you need to ||unlock the other 3 aspects|| before hand
Is it only me or ||Skelly respawns only after changing weapons once you've defeated Hades?||
I've noticed that too.
It does that for me too
Feedback time.
yeah so, me and my friend uninstalled the game. got boring quickly. Great/Amazing beginning of the experience but I've realized that Heat levels is actually a really boring mechanic that will not keep me playing the game. other than that the experience was wonderful though, thanks for the gg, update doesn't renew either of our interest at all, don't know if that's important or not but thought I'd just post my feedback here to let you know.
I share the sentiment. I wish completing a higher heat run was rewarded with at least two or three lowest heat rewards, instead of only one. Feels completely forced to me. I think if the game gets really popular there'll be mod for that.
Especially considering there's already an end-game chase target in the form of gemstones which are required in crazy amounts to completely renovate even a single room.
I thiiink the logic is that you'll be doing all of those runs anyway for story content, since that's the main draw of the game, but I agree that only getting rewards for the lowest heat available is strange.
And you're probably right about the mod, if that's something people feel strongly about post launch.
It’s still very fun for me. I’d like doing environmental shake ups (maybe the lava in the second area is drained every now and again or something) and some more enemies too
also it's... weird realizing we're that close to launch at all. I'm taking a break since that's coming up and I miss the game! But since it's so close to its final form I wanna be able to experience it all in the intended (ish) order.
Just a short question: Does Hera's Bow give any bonuses to Stygian Soul users?
I'm considering completing a 25 heat run with every weapon to get a good-looking completion screen and just farming gems on 5 heat every time. Already feel tired after 40 consecutive Coronacht runs. If I get bonked by the final boss after an hour long run one more time, I'll toss my PC out the window. Well, not really, but that's how it feels.
that makes me challenges the trove challenge twice for some reason when i want to collect my reward because i pressed the trove very fast
HUH
Do you get the reward twice too?
Nope
Goddamnit.
Where would I post a run killing bug here?
F10
In game bug reporter.
If that crashes on you and you can't, that's when you go to the tech support channel.
I don't see the ingame bug reporter in any menus?
F10 is th button for it
That's why people say to hit that button.
Mhm! If you have any other questions like that about Early Access stuff, the #hades-faq has some other things you might wanna look into!
Ah too bad I gave up and came here before I knew of f10, the screenshot is of the start screen 😦
Thanks though
if you descrieb the issue, they can still see the log!
So don't be worried about that, the screenshot is just to provide help on it if you can.
It's still the best way to let them know what happened so they can examine the log and look into it.
Tbh im on like 180 runs and it hasnt gotten boring to me yet
Trick was to keep switching weapons
Unless i hit something that feels really good like artemis arthur
i mean its all subjective. the game isnt going to appeal to everyone and thats fine. the heat criticism is valid, but at the same time idk whats the point in coming to say the game is boring rofl
i think heat/pact in general tends to be fairly hot topic (pun unintended) when it comes to specific aspects of it, mainly the way bounties work and removing mirror upgrades
lowers the bow you are so lucky that pun was not intended
Do Bonds except the companion ones do anything?
nope its narrative
thats still just narrative fluff though
True
as much as i love some of them theres no functionality to them
Is there a Sixth companion?
I wanna know what it looks like but i dONT HAVE IT YET
I need to slay five lernies!
i can always just dm it.........
DM it to me, I don't see it on the wiki
the image isnt on wiki yet for reasons
Me: never plays Varatha
Me: almost dies using it
Me:
Me: why can't i use varatha :(
there is a 6th mate.
im just saying the wiki hasnt been fully updated because we frankly havent gotten there
Can you DM me who's it is
Its called ||Antos|| and is from ||Patroclus and Achilles|| iirc
Cheers
hades is so much fun uwu
It is!
i wish i could stop dying so much uwu but its necessary
thank u arti
🏹 ^w^
I want to farm diamonds but the weapon i have lowest heat on are varatha and aegis
And im just like
🤚 nnnyyygyhyh
aegis is fun its just chonky bodyslams uwu
Chaos boon for +% darkness, got 3 of em on rare
You could always farm money and hope it shows up in the final shop?
1200 darkness in one run I am shook
yooooo nice
final boss is considered a spoiler 😉
|| on each side of the spoilery bit,.
Perfect thanku
or /spoiler to censor the whole message, if that sems like a lot of hassle.
money farming ye i should do that more
Sksksks I thought I had found a loophole
Titan blood into 25 keys through gemstones, and then 15 again for titan blood, rinse repeat
But my impatient ass just used the keys on nyx's mirror
There's better deals, and as you progress more you'll start piling up keys with nothnig else to use them on.
So the mirror buy was probably a better investment for now.
Yess! I recently got the ten nectar for one titan blood
Gotta say Im loving some of the story-lines
Cant wait till supergiant either makes me cry or shakes me to the core on 1.0
whatever the true ending is im not ready
Samee
||I cant beat the final boss and some folks on youtube do 40 heat or something||
Oh what
Better
i cant either yet haha im terrible at dodging uwu
Us moment
I think theres significantly more projectiles in the game now
In asphodel It used to be just the archers, now Its pink waves and those underground fellas
What's the bug report keybind?
f10
32 Heat makes you praise some little things that you normally take for granted.
Like defeating the Furies without losing Death Defiance. 
hey which boon/upgrade could give me +2 hp everytime i hit monsters??
Thats often doable, unless its the third sister
hey which boon/upgrade could give me +2 hp everytime i hit monsters??
Shadow Slash, I believe
The sword daedulus one, but It reduces overall health
Cursed Slash?
Cursed Slash?
Cursed Slash, right.
shadow is backstab damage
what about punching knuckles?
gotta say if it wasnt for the absolute brokenness of chaos shield + zeus i wouldnt have beat 32 heat
i dont believe it has one, or if it does i've never seen it.
its not really that great given that most of the time you kill with attack
but its pretty good in last area
for all the mobbing that can occur
it might be better if you use the ||special aspect|| for the fists.
It's also pretty good with the Demeter aspect.
But that's more like, build talk than general discussion.
Woah what happened 
i generally run zagspect all the time
i do too
that 10% dodge chance and attack speed is too good to pass up
zagspect is my fav especially with hermes boons
Bot nabbed ya. You either said a swear or something similar enough to one on accident that it got confused.
Oops, sorry
**Attack **MB5
**Dash **MB4
**Cast **RMB
**Special **LMB
**Reload **MB3
**Call **LT
**Interact **LB
**Summon **D-pad Up
That sounds hard.
what in the
Fair enough, have a nice day
one mouse for everything huh
if it works for you then it works!
thing is
i am not sure if it does
im still trying it out
im beset by doubt
feels like nomatter what i do i just can play this game right
lol
There is no right way though
yeah but them speed runners are all using controllers
Are you doing speedruns?
thx for help 🙂 im trying the dodge build with knuckles
Speedrunners also map out their runs
I just use a controller cause even the game recommends it, and all 3rd person games i play with a controller just in general.
(isometric included).
i was doing that just fine
I use kbm, I'm terrible with a controller lol
but then i picked up the rail
I will say the rail plays much better with kb+m.
does ||Lucifer aspect|| play any different between kbm and controller?
ok, just tried it out a little more
I feel that wouldn't be too bad
It does a bit but I find that one easier on controller actually cause of the auto-aim.
so i can spam dash strike
I can't go back to normal rail after getting that aspect lol

i mean considering the aspect we are talking about
No lie I restarted over the lounge hole-in-the-wall.
seems fair
It bothered me so badly. xD
I see how that could happen
not a passage, but just a giant chunk of wall missing lol
I really hope SG plans to either change it into a doorway or let us remove it like some of the other upgrades.
An archway could be fine. 
Anything than the contractor cutting up the wall
Shouldn't have upgraded that shade's desk
I'm revoking his contracting privileges 'til he fixes the hole in the wall he made.
-Hades smashes desk-
Hades: "Stupid boy.", probably.
BOI
Petition to add Kratos to Hades?
Kratos learned the "BOI" shout from hades
No better teacher
which eurydice choice is better?
I usually go next 3 are epic
Running into Hermes with guaranteed epics is nice
Unless you really like your current build
Pom porridge is SUPER good if you have any 4 upgradable boons, really.
If my luck;'s been garbage or I've gotten a lot of levels for some reason, then I go for either the upgrade 2 rarity's as a gaamble, or try and counteract the previous bad floors with the ambrosia.
True, I just like seeing epics 😛
guys what do you think the chances are for this game to come out on switch
Potentially, but we don't know their porting plans yet. It seems like it'd be a good fit, thoughh?
it does
Sorry if I´m interrupting anyone, im not sure where bi should report bugs though and came here to check, thanks for any answers!
In game.
Use F10 to access the bug reporter.
IIf that crashes on you for some reason, then you go to tech support, but even if the bug isn't on screen at the time, they'll still get the log file to look at.
alright, thanks!
I just did something big brain
aka delete theseus first instead of moo boy
and using the aspect of ||elon musk cybertruck|| still managed to win lol
Which aspect?
Probably Aspect of ||Aurthur, the Excalibur||
Oh yeah, that does hit like a truck
I'm still working on getting that. My computer was down for a couple weeks and I've just got it back up for this weekend.
Good 'ol RNG dialogue!
guys, its seem that ive run into a bug on aquiring the new Bow aspect, can you guys show me on where to report it
You can press f10 in-game to report bugs
hrm
at first I got the Dialog unlocked with the NPC, but then I chose to click give up and it seems that i got load back to the beginning of the run and that dialog never come out again
why cant i post pictures
so i cant unlock the new bow aspect
Ah, that's not a bug
Clicking "give up" reverts your save to before the run started
@brisk trail because we're not allowed to. What do you want to post? If it's a victory screen, #h1-victory-boasting . If it's something that needs tech, #h1-tech-support . Otherwise, imgur links work fine
yea but when I redo the scene with the god, she never mention about the "keywords" to unlock the aspect again
could giving up then load back apply to the RNG
or i have to make couple of full runs
That would work, I actually accidentally did that for another weapon :3
One thing you can do is use your cast each time you go into a door to reset the seed, which will guarantee different RNG
Cursed slash is so hard to use urgg...
Dangerous stuff
I just beat the ace combat 7 campaign, and now i feel all sad and empty. I know that when hades is fully released and i see the ending, I'm gonna get the exact same feeling but worse.
Okay, I suspect I already know the answer to this, but does completing Skelly's personal quest ||actually remove access to him? Because I get the feeling he's messing with me and won't actually die, but I don't want to risk completing it early and losing access to him.||
you won't regret doing it
How do I unlock hidden weapon aspects? I know that it involves dialog with specific characters, but that's about it. Do I have to get them in a specific order?
check pins in #h1-story-discussion
@vital glade just keep playing and make sure you talk to characters, it'll happen naturally
k, thanks
for future reference when people ask about hidden aspects the requirements to those are pinned in the channel i mentioned, you can just direct them there
most of the game's progress amounts to just keep playing and talking to people but there are some certain things you have to do
I was having this horrible bug for the last year that made my game stutter endlessly. After the new patch it's finally fixed so thank you SuperGiant!
I was soooo close to beating the Final Boss with the newest L---- Aspect of the gun but then I diiieeed!!! I WAS SO CLOSE! The pain of defeat!!!
Yeah! It's super cool but very slow unless you get Hermes to speed it up for you. It's super neat. I can't believe I was so close to winning with it!
Ah with the new rail aspect I just chain bomb
where would i report a bug?
press F10 in-game 
wicked, ty
eeyup, now opens the door to masochism and grind!
I finally unlocked Skelly's first useless trinket. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day or night is ruined.
2 more to go x.x
Right now, my enthusiasm to do that is modest at best.
Agreed
IM LAUGHGHG
I have a chaos curse
- 60% enemies
I get a Thanatos encounter
In tartarus
The room is SO FULL OF LOUTS AND WRETCHES
THERES AS MANY MUSCLES AS IN A BODYBUILDER COMPETITION
AND THANATOS YELLS ENOUGH AFTER ITS OVER
Forgot to say i also had lvl 2 jury summons ahdhfh
What's the point to gicinf more necter after the first to gods who've already given you their keepsake? And hi all.
Giving*
Anyone have tips for using the spear? It’s the only weapon I haven’t finished with. I tried ||guan yu|| but it was really tough
Can't help you with that, spear is my weakest
It just feels too slow to me
And doesn’t do enough damage unless maybe you get lucky with boons or something
I imagine an Achilles cast build would be pretty safe for the spear
Spear is an interesting one, I just go ||Guan Yu|| and special spam with a side of BeyBlade background music
Getting tough at 15 heat though 😦
Spear is the midway between sword and bow. They nerfed the final aspect too much for me so I use Hades aspect
Massive spin and Quick spin are ace for spear
yes
things that boost your attack also boost your dash-attack; things that boost your dash-attack only affect the dash-attack, not the regular attack
Riks: For surviving through the final boss try focusing the special on spear with a high dmg % boon (poseidon, aphrodite, etc.). People don't seem to like it as much, but I think it's lots of fun and can be very safe.
Sorry to bother you guys but anyone know the answer to my above question? How about giving more nectar after the first time.
@onyx cape nothing besides lore
Ah ok ty.
So each time you finish a clear on the new level up heat it reset the base rewards? You have to fully clear it you can't just add another level to the heat before you clear to reset rewards correct?
Oh damn didn’t know that
Not sure what happens if you skip heat though
I did it once and it just cleared the next lowest
@hearty dock regarding your most recent post in #hades-feedback
Please seperate out your posts into seperate ones one per feedback/idea as asked of you in the pinned messages in the feedback channel. It makes it hard for people to vote on as they may agree with some but not all of your feedback
you only get the bounties for the lowest heat level completed
you can skip heat just fine, but bounties only go up one successful heat level at a time
did there used to be a different demeter x aphrodite dual boon?
Wasn't that just added?
Some Gods didn't have duo combos before last patch
yeah, I think my boon update script just ran into something left in from development
never mind lol
@runic lintel #hades-feedback isn't meant to be used to discuss feedback, please discuss it in #h1-builds-and-combat
Can someone tell me if this is right? I think the tier goes common - rare - epic - heroic - legendary/duo
Is that correct? And higher rarity is a bigger boost than higher level, though ideally you have both
This is just what I’ve observed from playing the game, haven’t looked it up
normally, you can only get common/rare/epic rarities for normal boons. heroic can only be gotten through certain methods which can raise a boon's rarity (exchanges and eurydice)
legendary boons and duo boons are distinct categories of boons, not rarities
Oh, what determines if you can get legendary? I get that you need to have met right two gods for a duo
legendaries and duos all rely on having prerequisite boons first; i.e. you need to have certain boons beforehand before legendaries/duos can be put in the boon pool
Ahh got it
(legendaries only needing one god's boons, duos needing two)
I see
those can be found on the wiki, as all of them are different
And the higher up you go the rarity increases?
Or at least chance for higher rarity
higher up what?
Climbing the tower
ah, no, not that i've heard
Hmm I feel like once I hit ||Styx|| I see more epics
rarity chance increases through stuff like keepsakes, mirror traits, and certain items
i believe that miniboss room boons have higher rarity chances, as do the more expensive boons available at ||styx||
So is it ever worth taking the chaos boon that gives + % to be rare?
yes
Seems not great if I want epics
It’s rare or better I believe
Oh okay, for some reason I thought it was just rare
Ty for all the answers Onyx, ‘preciate it
I mean there is an ability that benefits only rare chance, it just isn’t from Chaos and you can’t get it mid-run, so understandable.
