What’s the official channel for submitting Switch version bug reports? The feedback channel pinned message just says F10.
uneven wharf
honestly 1.0 lowkey is disappointing. id prefer a new infernal arms, new aspects or even new gods
hollow halo
theres a new aspect
uneven wharf
ig this update is more about advertising their release rather than content
analog elbow
3k new voicelines?
uneven wharf
theres a new aspect and a couple keepsakes. not the biggest update lol
hollow halo
i mean i think its more because the previous updates are so packed withcontent that 1.0 feels weaker in comparison
manic bobcat
I mean SGG has been very explicit about what you should expect via the Roadmap
ruby sedge
Were people expecting a huge update?
manic bobcat
It even has a big banner in game
hollow halo
which if anything reflects better on sgg
ruby sedge
P sure we knew it was gonna be like one aspect and like one keepsake (and we got two) plus the ending but no new bosses
manic bobcat
and they deliever on everything on that roadmap so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
ebon hazel
only thing i was expecting from this update was ending + final hidden aspect
but i am hoping theres some nice post-launch content updates down the road
ruby sedge
Fingers crossed
reef pasture
i mean this game feels like there could be a lot just added down the road so prob shouldn't worry too much yet
hollow halo
admittedly i havent checked out settings menu since new patch
ebon hazel
endless mode, maybe a couple new bosses / weapons are the big things im hoping for
reef pasture
||spam ran through almost everything released today but there's def a lot that could be added||
uneven wharf
never used god mode
hollow halo
neither have i
but having it be a bit more adjustable would probably be nicer for new players
coarse silo
ok bruh. 6 times no bull. did they like lower his odds or something??
coarse silo
i know what the mini boss doors look like. 😛
hollow halo
oh ok
uneven wharf
if u get hit like 3 times on high heat with it u die
coarse silo
iv been spamming every miniboss door in that biome consistantly. no bull. the fates hate me or something i swear
manic bobcat
I actually have never heard anyone asking for GY buff o.o
uneven wharf
at least they could lower the hp u get initially and dont half the health u gain in the run
hollow halo
maybe then asterius will like you
coarse silo
LOL i must become the dwarf
uneven wharf
i dont rlly like that
manic bobcat
have you tried charged skewer with Deadly Flourish?
coarse silo
but seriously ugh. 6 times. there needed to be a more reasonable way man... also agreed on GY, same goes for Hades spear, anything spin attack based seems to jsut get destroyed on higher heat
uneven wharf
yes
but with that build its harder to lifesteal bc u have no athena atk (unless u get lucky)
typically u want divine dash when ur so squishy
manic bobcat
I mean that's how I cleared 32 heat.
uneven wharf
ill have to try it again maybe i messed the build up
hollow halo
i feel you on that
ruby sedge
Guan yu is real strong, but I never did it on high heat
ruby sedge
I don't really like arthur

did mine with pre nerf chaos shield

i like lucifer and arthur

best to move this convo to #h1-builds-and-combat ^_^

But I can see why people do more and more

what do the little faces next to the keepsakes mean?

on youtube i saw someone do 50 heat with beowulf

there's no hint on how to get new aspect for fists do i just need to finis game a few times?

How is it alright when u have two lives PER ROOM
reef pasture
@fair dove late game +2 lives overall is better than 2 lives per room
manic bobcat
@fair dove you must be tripping, read again
uneven wharf
How is it alright when u have two lives PER ROOM
@fair dove because you only have one death defiance
lol
fair dove
Am I missing something
ebon hazel
also its not really 2 lives considering it putus you at 30% hp
uneven wharf
you only take stubborn defiance if u die a lot on asph
fair dove
Per chamber means per room, no?
uneven wharf
realistically
shut wolf
how does Bad call achievement works? anyone get it?
says Use an Olympian's Greater Call against them in a Trial
manic bobcat
that should be 1 life, no? because if you lose 2 lives you are dead?
fair dove
Damn, so normal defiance is better?
uneven wharf
it depends
manic bobcat
100% depends
reef pasture
once you get deep into the game, you typically don't die except ||unless it's final boss more or less, in which case having 3 lives total > 2 lives per room||
fair dove
It sounds so good on paper tho
reef pasture
plus, you can get the occasional death defiance boon or well of charon item to replenish a life you lost if you accidentally lost one mid-game
manic bobcat
aggy is typing 👀
granite ether
stubborn defiance is good in that you can make more mistakes in regular rooms and get by, but it's more punishing in boss fights
uneven wharf
@fair dove doom fist attack
fair dove
I wanna play fist bug I’m not too good at it
granite ether
the inverse is true for death defiance
uneven wharf
and its one of the best weapons
manic bobcat
Doom first is terrible now
fair dove
@fair dove doom fist attack
@uneven wharf what’s that
manic bobcat
Get with the time old man 😉
uneven wharf
did it get nerfed
manic bobcat
also move to #h1-builds-and-combat maybe?
granite ether
yeah tis the better channel for that convo
median sluice
this game is amazing. never played a roguelite before. if thats what this is
fair dove
Many amazing roguelikes out there
uneven wharf
if dead cells had the build variety hades has it would be one of the best rogue likes out
analog elbow
In lore alone it surpasses Dead Cells by a large margin
Not to mention all the voice acting
and the music
uneven wharf
idk about lore...
ebon hazel
i think enter the gungeon is more comparable to hades than dead cells
uneven wharf
dead cells lore is much more interesting. hades has a better story i can agree
hollow halo
roguelites and roguelikes are different, lites preserve some progress between runs while roguelikes wipe everything
wheat wing
Anyone having issues activating dash-upper consistently on the new fists aspect?
ebon hazel
honestly i cant rlly think of any recent true roguelikes
hollow halo
theres always nethack
ebon hazel
maybe darkest dungeon?
uneven wharf
idk the fists feel a little clunky
same as the shield
the delay to bull rush is annoying.
coarse silo
i personally hate the shield, the fists are fun altho idk bout the new aspect
hollow halo
to put it simply the only thing you het to keep between runs in roguelikes is knowledge
ebon hazel
yeah
uneven wharf
the shield with fast bull rush is pretty broken
ebon hazel
spelunky maybe? i havent played in a while and i dont remember if theres anything that carries over
hollow halo
hades is a roguelite because u get to keep stuff and ugrade urself between runs
hollow halo
technically spelunky has shortcuts but yeah its basically a roguelike
hollow lark
You do realize that shield blocks attacks coming from the direction you point it right
wheat wing
i like the special moveset otherwise just a pain the main feature of it is acting clunky
spiral karma
Has anyone run with Crystal Clarity lately? It upgrades the cast to be a bit greener right?
fading gazelle
but without that hammer upgrade its legit painful to use
@uneven wharf I disagree?
uneven wharf
with the delay lol
fading gazelle
You mean the delay caused by attacking which then leads to a bull rush?
uneven wharf
the charge up to bull rush
fading gazelle
But you don't need to charge all the way
I guess I understand your complaint, but I guess the charge up time kind of fits for me seeing how heavy of an attack the bull rush is. Other weapons also have long charge up times to kind of give a heavy sense to it. So though i don't share your opinion, I can respect it.
quaint vessel
Congratulations on the 1.0 guys! I went to buy it on switch after seeing the announcement from Nintendo (Japan) yesterday that it was coming out, and then today Steam popped up a 1.0 notification, but sadly no switch version just yet.
Anyway I just wanted to make sure, because a few companies have messed this up recently. If I wait to buy it on switch, will I be able to play in both English and Japanese?
vague frigate
can anyone here tell me who gives the new keepsakes?
fading gazelle
||Persephone seems to be one of them|| @vague frigate
vague frigate
thank you
i don't feel like grinding too much, im already a little burnt out on this game
fading gazelle
No problem . Its understandable
@quaint vessel I don't recall if the game had a Japanese localization on the PC, but if a language has been localized on the steam/epic version of the game, its safe to assume that it'd be localized for the switch as well 
.
coarse silo
oh my god. 7 times now, still no bull. iv had enough of this im going to bed, iv spent all night triyng to get this aspect, good ole RNG silliness. night everyone, hope the rest of you had better luck with this crap,.
fading gazelle
Ouch. Sweet Dreams! May rng be on your side next time 👋
uneven wharf
do you need to have the fists equipped
fading gazelle
No
spiral karma
Don't think so
fading gazelle
Any weapon works
narrow hemlock
@quaint vessel I saw jp tweet saying winter 2020 https://twitter.com/Nintendo/status/1306744821235748866
the game did not ship with jp localization as far as I know, we didn't have it for early access
quaint vessel
Yeah thanks. I know that, but the question isn't really whether or not the game will be localized into Japanese. A Nintendo accouncement means that it absolutely will be. But I'm wondering if it'll release locked to JUST Japanese, which a lot of smaller dev studios have done recently (for reasons I can't fathom but I assume are related to distribution).
narrow hemlock
oh I couldn't tell you, they haven't really talked about any additional localization stuff
quaint vessel
Fair enough. It's not a commonly asked question, I get that.
narrow hemlock
you might go through their contact form and see if they can tell you anything about that. Don't think you'd get an answer on discord
quaint vessel
They're on Discord often enough. I can wait 🙂
granite ether
or through the info@supergiantgames.com email address
narrow hemlock
oh I just mean they don't really pop in and answer questions too often haha just every now and again depending on what it is
just figured contacting them directly may be worth a shot
granite ether
I would personally either email or use the 'contact us' form on the website as launch days are incredibly busy for the Supergiant team
quaint wind
it's also way more likely they'll see it, as otherwise it could get lost in the chat

i saw that, but the cloud save toggle doesn't appear to exist when i check in the epic launcher
it keeps saying it'll save to the cloud, so i guess it's using another method 😄

Refund it on steam?

@fading gazelle I heard that Duo Boons count as Legendary so might just try to farm those as well, for sure with Fated AUthority rerolls

You would have to contact Nintendo's customer service most likely

uh use the contact form on the supergiant website then

It’s wierd why can’t it be like on steam where you do it through steam

There's a contact form on their site too, I just double checked

Rebinding dash to a trigger is not something I wanna do because 1 muscle memory and 2 a trigger doesn't sound good with multiple dashes.

Hey so I'm not sure if this is the right channel, but has anyone found any other requirements for the new Fists Aspect other than spending blood on the Fists and speaking to "Appropriate Character" during a run? I've seen "Appropriate Character" 4-5 times since 1.0 and haven't gotten the right interaction yet. I've got every other weapon aspect, and I'm like 100+ clears in.

just got this on switch and holy crap it really worth the wait. It is the most enjoyable roguelikes i have ever played and so far the port have good performance.

It will become clear soon if you keep playing

I was wondering if anyone knows how to set Hades to always active - as in don't pause audio and gameplay when I click off window - it would be handy for checking things while streaming etc. Not really a bug as such - so didn't want to put it in one of the tech channels? I don't see an option in any menu for it - was wondering if there is an ini file or text doc setting that can be tweaked

or you could not give her ambrosia on some returns
@modern mountain yeah, this has been really annoying me: I beat Meg infrequently enough that it's been exceptionally annoying that the last two times I managed to, she's been in a conversation with Dusa back in the lounge [and thus not Nectar-giftable]. That's about 2 hours of my life I put into that 😉

It is such a trivial thing for them to tweak too
and does not affect actual runs

@wind wedge When you do encounter Meg talking with Dusa and you want to gift her, try entering your room and coming back. Meg should be alone and you can gift her

...really? I don't think I've ever tried going into my room and then back into the lounge before, and I had no idea that anything would reset as a result of it.

@wind wedge it happens sometimes
gilded narwhal
exciting release, time to start a new game. i wonder how much I'll miss all my upgrade - I was never a good or high heat player before
modern mountain
but sometimes it does not
Again my biggest gripe is over the ambrosia
they made such a mini game very inconvenient
everything else is kosher
fading gazelle
A lot usually changes when going back and forth between your room and the lounge. Its especially useful when an npc is talking to someone else. Some npcs also reappear.
wind wedge
Hm. Okay, I guess I'll try that the next time. Thanks

didnt get to play Hades until pretty late into my evening. just nearly got to 4 hours of playing and im HOOKED. i normally don't like games that are challenging and this is my first ever rogue game but Hades just does something right for me. LOVE LOVE LOVE looking forward to getting further in!! (i just got to the 3rd dungeon)
wind wedge
Hm. Okay, I guess I'll try that the next time. Thanks
@wind wedge For reference: literally just tried this now, as Meg/Dusa conversation was going on for a third time when I beat Meg. Entering my room then leaving for the lounge again did result in the two being separated - but I can't interact with either of them, at all. 😦

hey guys good morning, One quick question, right now im using the twin fists with the extra hits on special aspect dont remember the name rn. I just got a hammer upgrade and 2 of them are for the special, one is the charged shot and the other is the flying kick
if i choose the kick how exactly will it work?
anyone knows?
for the shot i believe it will be times 5 i guess
but im not sure about the kick because it has the word "twice" in it

hey guyys
how do we unlock the last aspect of the twin fists?
somber rover
thank you 🙂

In the miniboss fight, with the regular pre-reqs

You don't need to use the specific weapon to get the activation code from the person
You'll need to have the Guan Yu aspect on spear, and five titan blood put onto the weapon aspect you're trying for

How to get gauge? You get them overtime in combat
There's specific boons that can increase the rate of gaining gauge or starting encounters with gauge

Hey people, have two questions about the game, the answers could be spoilers so hide them behind the spoiler tag in case they are. I'm missing one keepsake but I have all that are listed on wiki, maybe I'm mistaken but is there a new one? And is it possible to play a board game in my room?
runic cliff
New keepsake is DEF spoilers. You need to beat the game's Epilogue to get it.
||It's Hades'||

before the new update, I always was guaranteed a fishing spot in Styx, but now it's very rare to get one there

slight correction on second keepsake: ||you don't need to beat the game's Epilogue to get it; you need to beat the game to get it. The epilogue is separate. The second keepsake does come from Hades though. Source: me, who has the second keepsake + just beat the actual epilogue||
runic cliff
Ahhhh, my mistake on that part!

Yep the terminology of "beating the game" and "beating the epilogue/reaching the epilogue" etc. is going to be confusing since a lot of people are going to think they're somewhere they're not yet...

So the best advice I can give is "don't skip the boon rooms" I'm afraid

so now that 1.0 is out, is it going to be released on GOG soon?
that's some answer frm the steam forums:
"Hey, we expect Hades will come to other platforms once our Early Access is complete sometime in the second half of next year. We haven't decided on all those platforms yet, so while I can't say for sure yet when it comes to GOG, certainly they're one of the platforms we think about (since like you said, all our previous games are on there). Thank you for the interest here. "

personally I like the change, it means elysium doesn't have the chance to kill runs (especially at high heat)
granite ether
there's currently no planned content past 1.0, but we don't know what Supergiant has planned
besides a well deserved break
slim ruin
ok, thanks :)
granite ether
no worries ^_^
stiff summit
Well the only killers in Elysium were the Shieldbearers
I think they also changed that? They seem a lot weaker now in my runs
sand stump
@pine relic now that you mentioned it
I kinda miss the “you step on a rake” kinda ending
pine relic
yeah those were funny
warm dove
@stiff summit they just the same maybe you get used to them lul
carmine ravine
wats shortcut and batcage does?
stiff summit
Hmmm i guess. I used to have so much problems with shieldbeares using bow but now they were ezpz surprisingly
carmine ravine
so kinda worthless diamonds then?
granite ether
I mean, if you want those things they're not worthless, if not you can use your diamonds elsewhere ^_^
sand stump
I would say keep around 10 diamond on hand for story item
warm dove
nothing is worthless. But the batcage is cool tho
maiden spear
Should I start using hell mode straight away?
stiff summit
Imagine if Hades got a coop mode
young epoch
but they did chaos shield too dirty
special has no tracking whatsoever now from what i tested
it whiffs so much on enemies
also feels empty and lacking the aesthetic impact it had before

"look how they massacred my boy"

See, this is why i love this game

ayo rail highkey my least fave weapon
@young epoch same
native sorrel
u sir are getting removed along w ur inferior weapons
young epoch
you know it's a good game where every player got different opinions
sand stump
Everyone have a different build
young epoch
everythings viable
stiff summit
I love bow I think it's got the most interesting aspects, save for the Zag one
Kind of a travesty really how boring the Zag aspect of the bow is
hollow heron
tbh i really like zag bow, even though it's boring
young epoch
btw bow is dope because
zagreus is decent to spray any status through his special
chiron is my fave, you put artemis or anything else on special and it's just nutty
era is unreal if you pair it with dyonisus cast
hidden aspect is totally different from everything else
every aspect plays completely different
take mallets aspects, there's not that huge of a variance between aspects
and everything in bow is very viable for very different strenghts
stiff summit
tbh i really like zag bow, even though it's boring
@hollow heron How do you build it? I never tried it only coz theres hera, chiron, and rama

Not gonna drop spoilers, just wanted to say great ending. I had goosebumps.

Foes & Encounters
- Increased maximum money value earned from slaying foes in Survival encounters
I'm so happy about this change. i like rampage in those rooms instead run in circles & now i will have for this style a noticeable reward, for bravery
@rapid bear New game or by winning i think (win = escape)
@rapid bear or maybe turn off in settings & reroll generation seed (need die for it)
Since i'm "hardcore gamer" - absolute no idea about how exactly works "God mode" because avoid it intentionally 
simple eagle
Since i'm "hardcore gamer" - absolute no idea about how exactly works "God mode" because avoid it intentionally
@autumn pagoda You get damage reduction each time you die (i think)
young epoch
@strong remnant you already reached ending or you completed a run?
autumn pagoda
@simple eagle though basics i know. Thanks. 
jade kindle
God mode: get 2% damage reduction each time you die. Start at 20%, cap 80%

it's dark souls 2 all over again

Right... but...

God mode helps a lot and there's less chance at getting frustrated
strong remnant
@strong remnant you already reached ending or you completed a run?
@young epoch
Just the one run in 1.0. Pretty hyped for my next runs!
jade kindle
I had to activate god mode because I kept dying and dying at the final boss. I was getting frustrated and I wanted more of the story so I activated it, but I actually reached around 40% damage red before managing to beat the boss
Maybe I would be able to beat them again without god mode now, since I have done a lot of runa since them, but I don't regret it
It's actually nice that such an option exists for more casual or less experienced players
lucid crystal
Can you hold many fish at a time? Or do you have to give them to the chef each run or otherwise they're gone?
jade kindle
Can you hold many fish at a time? Or do you have to give them to the chef each run or otherwise they're gone?
@lucid crystal you lose them if you don't give them to the chef before the next run!
lucid crystal
I'm just pretty sure I've fished more than the 50 required to fulfill the prophecy, is there any other req?
autumn pagoda
@jade kindle Yeah... ||Hades|| can be pretty harsh. I start win against this boss only when i cranked up his speed lol.
jade kindle
@lucid crystal || Talk to Poseidon, he will trigger a line ||
lucid crystal
Aight thanks
jade kindle
No problem! Happy fishing 
autumn pagoda
This pretty strange i know... make game easier with the Pact
When actually it became harder
woeful knot
How to get the new fists?
lucid crystal
||Is Charon's secret fight only available in Elysium or am I just unlucky?||
woeful knot
Do i need to max the first aspect to max?
brazen delta
@lucid crystal It's available on all floors but it's quite rare
jade kindle
This pretty strange i know... make game easier with the Pact
@autumn pagoda somehow I enjoy some pact conditions! Like EM, or more speed, or the benefits, they all give a nice twist
autumn pagoda
@lucid crystal Just unlucky. It is can be in Tartarus. RNGJesus help this dude.
brazen delta
Afraid I don't, I've heard it has to do with ||Asterius||
But I haven't had any luck yet
brazen delta
yeee
I'm assuming it's similar to other hidden aspects where you have to have put at least 5 titan bloods into the fists
(any aspect)
And then at some point some new dialogue will occur
vapid crown
one aspect at level 4 = 5 bloods have been invested?
brazen delta
Hasn't happened to me yet, though I did get some dialogue with ||Asterius|| where they talk about the fists without spurring the hidden aspect
@vapid crown should definitely be so unless it's the Zagreus aspect
I think Zagreus aspects are 1 titan blood a level?
woeful knot
Dont they ramp?
rapid bear
So you can't make godmode give less armor once it ticks up
autumn pagoda
@brazen delta last time i upgraded zag's aspect they was 1 tb per 1 lvl - seems this is intentional. Dunno why tho
brazen delta
It might be intentional that it doesn't ramp, I can't remember if it did when I upgraded one of them
woeful knot
Offtopic,but i dont know in what patch they removed the ability to use your item in Hades fight
And i hate it soo much
brazen delta
Considering I got past the final floor in like 5 or so runs my first time playing, must be weird for new players to so quickly get to the game's "ending"
grave ruin
@woeful knot
You mean the summoning item?
woeful knot
Yea
autumn pagoda
I'm thinking over challenge "Beat final boss in very first run of Hard Mode" - would be so cool if there for this accomplishment was 4th wall breaking moment hidden.
grave ruin
It is possible to use the summoning items once you defeat final boss a certain number of times
I just got an upgrade for that
brazen delta
Wait really what
grave ruin
No, you unlock that by talking with ||Hades|| after you beat him
brazen delta
Oh interesting
grave ruin
He will have a flashing exclamation mark on him
brazen delta
New update?
grave ruin
Yeah, i can't tell you my version exactly coz I can't check it, but it's the latest on Steam
brazen delta
Did you just get it today? I've beaten final boss many a time and never seen that so I'm guessing it's a new thing?
grave ruin
By the way, can I just gush over the OST really quick?
That music piece called ||On The Coast|| Man...
This might just be my favorite track without the lyrics in the game. Even though the setting is different, this has beautiful influences from Middle Eastern music and instruments, while still retaining that Greek influence and ||the sense of attaining freedom from the underworld, seeing blue skies and rising sun above the water for the first time||. Thank you, Darren, you hit all the right spots in this one.
Makes me desperately wish and hope that Supergiant someday makes a game in the desert/Middle Eastern setting, like 1000 & 1 Nights sort of thing (with their own lore or the original stories and myths, like they did with Hades). My, what a journey that would be...
brazen delta
I'd like to give a shout out to all the new minor animation and art changes to

@brazen delta
Yeah, I got it yesterday, after I got news on the release of version 1.0

Who do I need to talk to to get the new fists
vital dragon
OH. Interesting

@vital dragon apparently you have to talk to ||Asterius||
I haven't gotten the line yet though
grave ruin
It took me several attempts after getting the end credits, and a couple of dialogues with ||Queen Persephone, and also gifting Hades nectar||

Huh. I need to do those thing

Hello all! I apologize if this was posted before (I just recently joined), but ||how does one unlock the fourth extreme measures boss difficulty?||

Yep, it is
I can't really tell you the prerequisites though, but I guess you need to beat him with a high heat (let's say above 25-30 with EM 3 on)
Coz it worked for me

Coronacht feels so much better with the buffs to its speed and recovery
I hope they don't nerf it
I never liked using it before because it just felt so slow and heavy compared to every other weapon
it didn't fit into Hades' pace

ahhhhh, then I don't have any information for you, it's possible they'll be looking into the same distributor but won't know for certain untill Supergiant announces something in regards to that

@granite ether i just dont want to miss this vinyl, im afraid it will be out of stock if ill wait

Bow buffs are nuts

I very much understand that 🤞 a good solution is found

Also what's up with the bow hammer that makes consecutive special hits stronger? It's insane on the homing special bow, and maybe the hidden aspect, but garbage on the other two

ashen prism
So when did they add the unique modifiers to the fights in double boon rooms? I stopped playing for a while in EA but I played during Charron's update and don't remember it. Aphrodite is PUNISHING man. I used to see those rooms as a pretty easy choice but now I gotta tread cautiously. (Not totally a bad thing)
ornate oak
They were there for a long time... I forgot when they were first added.
flat vapor
i want to say a few were added in long winter and the rest were in nighty night
ashen prism
huh.. Maybe I was just later in the game and didn't notice as much because I was more powerful? I restarted and near every double boon room has kicked my ass but I never passed em up before..
ornate oak
And yes, periodic stun necessitates a strategy of "RUUUN".
ashen prism
Very odd.
flat vapor
for a long time they were just different colored circles that behaved differently per god
ashen prism
I certainly don't recall every seeing Aphrodite's little heart bombs
flat vapor
the new effects are relatively recent, if you considered 6 months or so recent

hmm.. Well I only played a bit during the last update cause i was excited to re roll on v1. I'm clearly not very attentive hehe

@fair dove purple hydra shoots purple beams. Orange hydra shoots fire blobs. Green hydra makes little enemy spawn eggs blue hydra bonks the ground a lot more and causes an earthquake. The little hydra heads follow the same pattern. Only little blue hydra heads bonk the ground. Every hydra head can also do this lunging bite attack that’s easy to avoid if you’re ready for it

Artemis got slightly nerfed not buffed. Lighting rod duo boon is a lot better now though

ah shet
rip artemis
she will still be bad
especially mirage shot like god why
what is that

Mirage shot is good? I cleared a 12 heat run with it.
wind nest
The 2 gods who got major buffs were ares and Poseidon
novel wasp
for that
fading gazelle
I agree that mirage shot isn't that great but she isn't bad
wind nest
I don’t think mirage shot is bad the aoe on the 2 casts is massive and basically pushes the entire wave of baddies into a corner
fading gazelle
she isnt in charge
What do you mean?
novel wasp
crystal clarity makes demeter beam stronger
hunting baes makes blade stronger
splitting headache makes dio's poison stronger
etc
its odd really, is there nothing that others buffs her instead of yay increased crit ig
wind nest
The duos aren’t based around Artemis primary boons they accentuate the other gods mechanics
novel wasp
which uh, aphro did it better with consistency
wind nest
Yeah I agree this isn’t a super flashy effect but some people like to see the big numbers
novel wasp
i want artemis to be good man i miss her pre nerf tbh
pure artemis run was maybe op but stupid fun
fading gazelle
Heart rend and Splitting headache can be looked as Dio and Aphro buffing crits because they make is occur more often

dual shot was 😘👌
terse geyser
and it's gone now
novel wasp
im just sad man
suddenly artemis is probably the most boring god among the others, in terms of mechanics anyway

how does the steam cards work?
i really want the wretch badge but i never traded cards before

its as simple as it gets
collect all of them, trade them in for a badge, rinse and repeat until u have the highest tier

how can i get them, just by playing?

@ancient frost https://steamcommunity.com/tradingcards/faq
eternal isle
indie games right now are good
ancient frost
oh thanks

you won't get a full set of cards from playing, you only have a certain number of cards that will drop, so you'll have to either trade for the rest or buy them off the community market

you can sell stuff in your inventory you don't want, if need be

you can sell stuff in your inventory you don't want, if need be
@narrow hemlock problem is that i already done that to buy games for a bit cheaper 😬

Yeah you'd have to take that up with epic :P trading cards and badges have been a thing on steam for years

but when i discovered hades it was on EGS only

Not sure if this should be here, but the suggestions channel mentions only game suggestions, so here goes.

narrow hemlock
yeah I found him right away last night

just to make sure all aspects are now in the game?

of course you did lol. this is why you don't lock progression and unlocks behind pure RNG. Silly bs like this can happen to people -.- ah well, just gotta grind, maybe il have it by next week XD
yes they are
narrow hemlock
unfortunately the game just gives you bad luck like that sometimes. when sword 4th came out it took me like 13 runs before I finally got the dialogue for it

i kinda forgot how i got guan yu, arthur etc at the time
Nice, thx for the headsup dude
coarse silo
i seem to remember i killed myself REPEATEDLY to get the sword dialogue XD and uuhhh yes you do, but its spoilery, just getting the right dialogue off the right NPCs
eternal isle
maybe gonna try to finish a run and see the ending for the first time before worrying about that tho 😉

Fists aren't in the pinned message but it should have the same requirements as the others, plus ||needing to talk to asterius for the phrase||
coarse silo
sadly killing myself for this one isn't really worth since i have to get so far into a run to attempt to get the dialogue, thats the part that annoys me here
eternal isle
damn they added a lot of stuff
coarse silo
oh yeah they did. iv been playing since like 8 months ago or something, its crazy how much the game has changed and what's been added
back then Artemis didn't even have a skin yet XD
eternal isle
yeah honestly very good work and following from the devs
been playing for a while too just didnt play since blood price update waiting for 1.0
coarse silo
oh absolutely. for a game of this price im super impressed. literally my only complaints are just minor things here and there, like this rng aspect bs. but the odds of getting as unlucky as iv been are pretty low, so im just cursed lol it probably wouldnt be super bad for most people
eternal isle
nice feeling of having retroactive achievements unlocked just by logging in haha
coarse silo
game is rather well made overall, and yeah lmao i had to pause the game for like 3 mins cuz the popups wouldnt stop getting in my way XD
like bruh really im fighting redacted stop giving me acheivements lmao
narrow hemlock
blood price was a weird time because it was the most bugs I've ever reported through my gameplay lmao ares quest was broken and I had him straight up just not give me dialogue during beta for his first boon of a run multiple times, he was the only one that kept doing that do me
coarse silo
yeaahh i remember playing the beta for blood price and was like wtttff is going on here

I was so dumb yesterday, I didn’t even notice the launch announcement, I just thought they were releasing new music for no big reason. Though it was worth it, cause when ||Hades went “Fine! Leave!”|| I was surprised in the best way.

Kinda lost in all the heat conditions, is there a heat guide for good heat progression, which ones are least punishing and the ones to avoid?
eternal isle
aaaaaaaaaaag so many new house contracts!!
yes!!
depends on the weapon youre using for me @amber cloak
for example

Hi everyone, I'm thinking about getting this game and I was wondering about its replayability. I know that this game is a rogue-like and the idea is that you play it over and over, but exactly how replayable is it? I ask because you can technically play any game over and over again for "infinite replayability". My question is how long can I do that without feeling like I'm just doing a repetitious grind? Also, how long did your longest run take? I'd like to get an idea of how long a single "finished" session is. Thanks!
eternal isle
as long as u're not using a one shot weapon like the bow (so something like the glove or sword), the heat thing that gives enemies invulnerability to the first hit is very easy to manage
easy 2 heat in the beginning
amber cloak
Any good rogue like has insane replayability because that's their entire point. I'd consider Hades one of the best ever roguelikes.
eternal isle
@mighty estuary my fastest and slowest winning run times are something like 25mn and 45mn
amber cloak
Runs can be pretty different depending on weapon, aspects, boons, and hammers which all completely change a run
mighty estuary
I understand that, but I was asking in general
narrow hemlock
@amber cloak you can also ask folks in #h1-builds-and-combat about heat progression
amber cloak
Ah, okay thanks
eternal isle
@mighty estuary i think hades has very good replayability even by roguelike standards
6 weapons with different movesets
each weapons having different aspects that change a lot the way you play them
narrow hemlock
They're all cute
mighty estuary
Could you guys give me a general idea of how progression works in this game? I read online that you obviously upgrade your gear through a run by getting new items, and I know that there is some form of cross-run progression, but how does that work?

I like Hermes more because he got that :3
eternal isle
for example you can play charged one shot bow, or fast shooting bow etc
amber cloak
There's a mirror you use to unlock different benefits
That'll be your cross-run progression in the early game

@mighty estuary I have 600 hours in the game and it's still fun
mighty estuary
I'm hoping that those benefits aren't +0.01% damage or something like that
