empty yoke
#

oh god why is the posiedon double god room challenge a ||heatseeking deathwave||

fair dove
#

Is there a feedback channel for this server specifically

empty yoke
#

also yeah i think there's a daedalus hammer for ammo increase

fair dove
#

Can we change the “for new players” channel to something like “hades-questions”

unreal vine
#

niceee

analog elbow

unreal vine
#

i’m having so much fun with this game lol

analog elbow
#

Yes, it's for Hades

mellow finch
#

@empty yoke ||I likened it to surfing.||

fair dove
#

is super op
@unreal vine I find gun very awkward to use personally

unreal vine
#

brahhhh

#

gun plus zeus lighting chain

#

op as hellllll

fair dove
#

Fist plus lightning strike tho

unreal vine
#

idk what power up i got

fair dove
#

Thunder punch goes boom

unreal vine
#

but the shots are homing now

fair dove
#

A hammer upgrade I think

unreal vine
#

so 12 shots just standing in the middle of the room chillin

analog elbow
#

You can make that suggestion on the feedback page @fair dove since it still pertains to the game to a certain degree

mellow finch
#

I always need to do a few runs with gun before I get back into the grove of attack -> reload -> special -> repeat.

fair dove
#

You can make that suggestion on the feedback page @fair dove since it still pertains to the game to a certain degree
@analog elbow the channel is read only for me

analog elbow
wary eagle
#

that's early access only i think

Ooh rly?

@fair dove go to the #bot-commands channel and type in !rank early access

ohhh right. i've been here too long, forgot you pretty much just asked for lower ranks

gentle scarab
#

when do i get the codex from Achilles? is it random?

#

i missed him the first few attempts

sharp turret
#

I hope the switch version gets optimizations. The framerate takes some serious hits sometimes

brisk trail
#

Okay, so how does the damage calculation for the ||maimed || status effect work, exactly? It says a 25% increase in damage taken, however when I hit an inflicted enemy with Athena's Attack, the damage goes from 103 to 118, which is... most certainly not 25%. However against that same enemy a Doom effect that would normally do 100 damage just straight up does 125, which is an increase of 25%.

patent topaz
#

@gentle scarab he should give it to you after the third run, if he doesn't don't worry sometimes he doesn't just do a couple more until the event triggers. You should see a shouty flashing ! over him

Does anyone know how to complete the prophecy ||where you have to beat Charon two times in a row? I've beaten him the last 3 times I tried.|| Please @ me if you have an answer, thank you! ;3

#

asterius hasnt been showing up at all for me in the 1.0 after 5 runs. just bad luck?

gentle scarab

im already at attempt 13. might have missed it

Is there some kind of trick to getting Hypnos bond?

viscid hinge
#

How do you unlock aspects for the weapons?

gentle scarab
#

unlock all weapons 1st

ripe nymph
#

old saves got deleted with the 1.0?

sand stump
#

No

#

It should not be

#

The only one i know have that problem is a friend who pỉrate the game

viscid hinge
#

@gentle scarab already did that and also beat hades

hallow yew
#

@brisk trail percentage is additive. the total attack damage is athena's % added to the ||maim|| % of your base attack damage.

base doom damage in ur example is 100 so 25% is 125. im assuming ur base attack damage (without athena) was 60... hence an increase of 15.

brisk trail
#

Okay that makes a lot of sense, thank you

crimson canopy
#

boy it's cool you basically can't use the rail special against the ||sneak|| miniboss squirtmeh

sharp fossil
#

i like to just dump my special in random places when fighting him

#

sometimes he teleports straight into it and looks like a FOOL

#

which is hilarious

#

but you’re right it’s usually not that useful

digital slate
#

Been looking online for any specific information about the game content related to its Teen rating to determine if we would think it is ok for our son. Does anyone have a link to the breakout? Thanks!

thorny moat
#

Hi there. I'm going to be going underway in the near future and will not have an internet connection. I have the game downloaded on my laptop but when I try to launch in offline mode it states that I need to sign in for it to play. What is the work around for this or on Epic it requires me to be online to play?

narrow hemlock
misty ruin
#

Is the base crit rate without modifiers 0%?

#

Artemis is offering me two items that only do anything if I get a crit

flat vapor
#

what do you mean

steel flicker
#

what are the boons

misty ruin
#

Hunter’s Mark and Hide Breaker

flat vapor
#

what weapon do you have

misty ruin
#

Fists

#

Aspect of Talos

flat vapor
#

hm, can you take a screenshot of what boons you have?

#

that might be an f10

wispy canopy
#

Are the Steam Animated stickers available for discord emojis??

misty ruin
#

I don’t think I have permission to post images in this chat?

steel flicker
#

images have to be posted through links

flat vapor
#

post it to imgur and paste the link

sage lake
#

this game was like the best early access investment of my life. by far.

narrow hemlock
#

@wispy canopy no

misty ruin
ripe nymph
#

0% dont exist

misty ruin
#

That’s why I asked if the base rate is 0%

flat vapor
#

true shot

#

your cast has a crit chance

misty ruin
#

Oh, there it is

#

Thanks!

#

Guess I could have answered that for myself just be checking artemis’s boom list in the codex

brisk trail
#

Hey guys can someone help me out a litte bit? Why do I get the rarity buff in the Styx chambers but not the butterfly damage buff? p-p

Pierced Butterfly (Keepsake) - Gain +1/1.5/2% damage for each Encounter you clear without taking damage.
Rare Crop (Demeter boon) - Your Boons become Common, then gain Rarity every 3 Encounter(s).

flat vapor
#

keepsakes are excluded from the mini styx chambers (only count the big rooms as encounters)

#

this is purely a balance decision

#

items and rare crop count the mini chambers as encounters

brisk trail
#

Oh well its good to know thanks! Its a bit controversial in itself.

kind moss
#

it's annoying that it doesn't specify

narrow hemlock
#

the plume from hermes is the same as the pierced butterfly for future reference, they will only count the final tunnel rooms

kind moss
#

like it makes sense that it happened

#

just wish it distinguished

#

same for "whenever you cast" on hera bow

#

some trigger on load, some on shot

brisk trail
#

Well yeah, I didnt find anything about this ingame (idk if I missed smthing)

light wyvern
#

not sure if anyone asked but what does the theme do?

#

bought a couple and cant spot a thing lol

misty ruin
#

I appreciate how pierced butterfly sometimes plays a voice line when you take the first damage of an encounter

silent pumice
#

"Quietly" they says, as I've been pushing this game on everyone I know like the world's most enthusiastic dealer.

brisk trail
#

This game deserves all the love and more

hallow yew
#

aww got hit with a crash, couldn't even f10

#

hate when that happens right at the end and my run is ruined

unreal vine
#

it’s worth it though

hallow yew
#

also finally found asterius

unreal vine
#

better than all stars / any game to come out for a while

silent pumice
#

There's a strong case to be made for Hades being the best game to come out this year.

#

Like, I've loved some smaller games like Coffee Talk and In Other Waters, but the only other game to come out this year that's sucked me in so hard has been Persona 5 Royal. (And I don't really count that, since it's just a remake of P5.)

tropic zodiac
#

Got a friend asking how the game does on Switch performance-wise

#

What's the word from Switch players

silent pumice
#

My friend seemed to absolutely love it on his, though he hadn't played the PC version yet (Macs, I tell ya.)

#

Performance doesn't seem to take too bad a hit, at least.

flat vapor
#

a million copies yo

tawny light
#

a million copies?

#

game sold a milli already?

#

maybe SGG can cough up some bribes for Asterius. Bull is mad stingy with his RNG for the 4th aspect

#

😭

silent pumice
#

My sympathies, man.

narrow hemlock
#

this is me being an overemotional gremlin but looking through all the nice things people picking up the game for the first time have been saying the past days makes me perhaps chicken tendy and maybe a wittle teary

hallow yew
#

forreal

silent pumice
#

I got it like two chambers after booting back into the middle of my run the day 1.0 dropped.

spiral sun
#

anyone having an isssues with the game minimising after alt tabing now

#

makes taking screenshots very difficult

silent pumice
#

Minimising? How do you mean?

coral verge
#

try using ShareX or Nvidia Experience to take screenshots

spiral sun
#

i usually use snip to take a screen shot

#

however going to that app, even when its' no another monitor, causes hades to minimise to the taskbar now

tight frigate
#

Whats happens if you get back to the top?? New dialogue??

sharp fossil
#

as in, beat the game again? yeah, there’s more dialogue

tight frigate
#

Fffffff imma need to ger back to the topp

sharp fossil
#

do it

tight frigate
#

Thanks❤️

sharp fossil

np

wind nest
#

Wait did this game sell a million copies on release?

#

Or over its entire early access time?

misty ruin
#

Does Hermes not have any duo boons?

#

Was expecting there to be a Hermes+Aphrodite boon

wind nest
#

Hermes has no duo boons

#

He has 2 legendies though

brisk trail
#

Or over its entire early access time?
about 700k were during early access

viscid hinge
#

Can I really not press give up button and retain everything I farmed that run? I need to suicide instead?

tropic zodiac
#

Give Up rolls back your run and basically lets you restart it yeah

#

Considering how dying is a means of making progress in its own right

viscid hinge
#

But all my darkness and keys and so during that run are lost? @tropic zodiac

tropic zodiac
#

Yup

viscid hinge
#

So I need to suicide instead, if I want to keep those things...

tropic zodiac
#

The early game is basically designed with the idea that you are going to die a lot before you start consistently beating it

narrow hemlock
#

dying is also important to the narrative, is why

tropic zodiac
#

So, yeah, you just gotta keep the run going until it ends

viscid hinge
#

I don't understand the point of the give up button then if it's just worse than suiciding. Both kill you but by suiciding you get to keep your earnings of that run..

narrow hemlock
#

people use it for seeding runs

#

also sometimes i leave and realize i forgot to switch something and give up to switch my loadout lol

tropic zodiac
#

I have used it out of frustration on runs where I wasn't taking care of myself well enough and was just like "man it's not even worth the stuff I got I'm just gonna run this all the way back"

#

I think it's like a retry button if you like the seed you got since some things remain consistent

viscid hinge
#

Oh so certain things of the next run will then be the same again since it's still the same seed? What things for example?

narrow hemlock
#

it depends on the actions you take, there was a really interesting convo here once in regards to that but idk if i could find it again zagpensive

#

oh wait fox copied that, it may have been part of the original thing lol. either way theres that

gusty swift
#

Dang, I thought I found the problem for why Fiery Presence isn't doing the full 100%, but apparently not.

cold hinge
#

Is there anyway to see the Daedalus boons ingame outside of the Fated List?

gusty swift
#

I noticed HitMaxHealthMultiplier = 1.10 was in the section for Fiery Presence, but apparently making it 1.20 to match its changevalue doesn't fix it. Alas. T_T

#

just wants that full 100%!

#

...Oh, huh, it works properly outside of training. ...Weird.

safe jolt
#

it would be cool to play Hades in Multiplayer 😄 local and online 😉

quasi gorge

HADES HADES

#

I haven’t been able to play any today and I’m so sad

crimson canopy
#

Is the 24.1 mb patch new? Any idea what changed?

terse geyser
#

@safe jolt The final boss is considered a spoiler in this channel

safe jolt
#

@vale drift Will Hades ever get a multiplayer feature?

crimson canopy
#

| Is Hades a multiplayer game, or are there any plans for multiplayer?
Hades is a single-player game. We have no plans to add multiplayer, as we created the gameplay and narrative of Hades with a solo experience in mind.

#

from the FAQ

vale drift
safe jolt
#

okey

wheat canopy
#

Anyone know what the update was? Sorry if it has already been discussed.

thick tide
#

Just got the game last night for Switch. My mind is blown. 😆

wheat canopy
#

Not listed on the patch notes section

#

Or on the Steam boards.

jade kindle
#

They've been releasing a bunch of mini updates

#

Probably bug fixes I guess

wheat canopy
#

Likely stabilization stuff? Yeah, ok. Thanks

tropic zodiac
#

Hopefully one's a Fiery Presence fix xwx

crimson canopy
#

Also wondering evarin - usually small updates don't have patch notes (at least in early access)

wheat canopy
#

Is there a good way to track what "things" you have left to do in the game in order to unlock new content?

#

Don't want to get into spoiler territory, but stuff having to do with weapons, or combat additions. Things like that.

crimson canopy
#

lol not really, fated list and codex kind of do that

wheat canopy
#

Also, is there any way to recoop resources put into weapons?

#

Definitely made some poor upgrade choices.

crimson canopy
#

AFAIK no unfortunately. Though apparently there's a way to play/test upgrades in a single run and then quit out without having spent the resources (probably too late for you?)

wheat canopy
#

Very much too late. That's a shame, too, as i'm god awful and can't just farm up more "stuff" using other weapons.

#

Ah well. Thanks for the info.

crisp bluff
#

Does anybody know what the favor for demeter is??

indigo oar
#

best aspect for stygius?

crimson canopy
#

yeah definitely felt like it was hard to get the resource before my first clear

#

the last aspect is pretty great but I like the 2nd one personally

lofty lotus
#

@indigo oar personally posidon

indigo oar
#

i use the second one but how do you reveal the last one?

crimson canopy
#

I don't fully remember but you first have to get the ||spear's 4th aspect||

crisp bluff
#

Ye poseidon is a great deal of fun a can do a lot of damage

indigo oar
#

so its a spoiler ok not looking

#

will check poseidon then

#

one more thing guys

crimson canopy
#

not a huge spoiler :p (I just am overcautious)

indigo oar
#

should i trade the whisky for titan blood?

crisp bluff
#

Depends

indigo oar
#

the drink you get from heroes :d

crisp bluff
#

If u are able to get legendary keepsake maybe no

narrow hemlock
#

uhh well you will need it regardless

polar estuary
#

man I wish they would buff Stygian

#

just feels so bad compared to everything else

indigo oar
#

heyy infernal is great

#

but aegis too op

lofty lotus
#

No, trade it if you're sure you don't have anyone to give it to.

indigo oar
#

ok

crimson canopy
#

early on you don't really need the whiskey but you'll need a lot later in the game potentially so it's up to you

#

well not "need"

safe jolt
#

not all gods/godeses acept the Ambrosia.. like Poseidon..

indigo oar
#

also one more thing guys :d

#

i dont get titan blood from sisters anymore

floral shore
#

IIRC there is only a single character in the game who will not accept at least one bottle of Ambrosia, and it's not Uncle P.

indigo oar
#

does that mean i can get them from trading only?

safe jolt
#

once per wepon

lofty lotus
#

They all do accept ambrosia once at some point

crimson canopy
#

later you'll be able to earn more blood (technically not unlimited but basically all you'd need)

#

keep trying to progress 😉

safe jolt
#

i cant gift him the ambrosia at least. the last heart is locked 😄

indigo oar
#

thank you guys all have a great day :3

lofty lotus
#

Keep talking to him

crimson canopy
#

that doesn't mean he won't accept it, just he won't yet

safe jolt
#

kinda talked to him, alot

alpine sequoia
#

I found hard the rock hard way to do boldys quest lol.

crimson canopy
#

lol i know the feel - been playing for dozens of hours and athena is still locked for me

lofty lotus
#

The heart will unlock with enough conversations.

safe jolt
#

okey

crimson canopy
#

oh wait I think some gods have conditions

lofty lotus
#

I think it says on the codex

safe jolt
#

i cant gift him anymore tough 😄

alpine sequoia
#

Yup

crimson canopy
#

think poseidon has a trigger condition actually

safe jolt
#

i bileve i read it has to do with fishing

lofty lotus
#

Fishing is the trigger, I think

alpine sequoia
#

Correct!

floral shore
#

If you see a heart with a lock then you will be able to gift that character but only after certain requirements are met. Often times you need to have seen a certain line of dialogue.

alpine sequoia
#

It'll gift you that one boon right?

crimson canopy
#

what aurelian said

safe jolt
#

kinda costs 2 gems for the rod 😄

alpine sequoia
#

Worth

lofty lotus
#

Yep, you need the rod.

crimson canopy
#

absolutely worth

alpine sequoia
#

Then you can grind gems and ambrosia

floral shore
#

The rod is paying for itself in the long run.

alpine sequoia
#

I usually go to Chaos to get stuff tho

safe jolt
#

kinda haf to earn it first. got kinda pised of from the last battle with "the last boss" kinda ended my sesion of today

crimson canopy
#

haha it's good to take breaks - you'll get them next time

alpine sequoia
#

Remember the trader too.

#

Especially after each run!

#

Great way to get gems.

lofty lotus
#

I already beat it with extreme measures 4.

crimson canopy
#

nice

safe jolt
#

hopes so. i kinda uses the lifesteal feature of the Sword. my first time to complete most bosses with the sword so yeah. exept 50HP Cap

alpine sequoia
#

oof, wait until you get the secret aspect of sword and use that life steal feature.

#

Tis interesting tbh

coral verge
#

does life steal not work on the last boss?

dusty dirge
#

I think I found a bug, is here a good place to talk about it?

safe jolt
#

yup

#

Lifesteal works on "final bos considered a spoiler"

fading gazelle
#

Final boss is spoiler @coral verge

coral verge
#

yeah I removed it, sorry

floral shore
#

Lifesteal does work on the final boss, the lifesteal for the sword just comes at the cost of a truckload of max HP.

fading gazelle
#

It's chill squirtnya

alpine sequoia
#

Is worth tho

#

I beat him with ONLY life steal

safe jolt
#

is there any other lifesteal? than pay half HP 😄

coral verge
#

weird, I had the hammer upgrade for life steal and it didn't seem to work

fading gazelle
#

@dusty dirge You can report bugs in-game by pressing f10

alpine sequoia
#

Cursed slash is dope.

#

Where's the button to high five the devs?

ripe nymph
#

lifesteal should work

dusty dirge
#

@fading gazelle got it, thank you. I'll do that

lofty lotus
#

Cursed slash sucks with the hidden aspect, attacks are too slow to sustain.

floral shore
#

I often feel that Cursed Slash does more harm than good.

alpine sequoia
#

Use hermes

#

It balances it out with damage and speed with that.

ripe nymph
#

cursed slash is good with the right setup

alpine sequoia
#

It's good to take cursed slash early tbh.

safe jolt
#

i like the "Falcon gun" used it alot. efortionatly the Sword ghot me the longest. the tower of styx was easier with sime physical power...

lofty lotus
#

Definitely, I like it with nemesis.

crimson canopy
#

imo cursed slash is great for normal rooms and worse for final boss (and maybe some other bosses)
at least for last sword aspect

alpine sequoia
#

I like the new "hidden" boss.

safe jolt
#

wait what? is "the boss" newly added?

lofty lotus
#

There's a new one? Or is it just EM4?

alpine sequoia
#

The one from the trailer?

#

Idk if he's considered a boss, lmao.

manic bobcat
#

Could be ||Charon||

alpine sequoia
#

Yup

#

Right on the dot.

lofty lotus
#

Oh, that was the last update tho.

safe jolt
#

i cant trigger ||Charon||. kinda hapens after you steal from the store but yeah... kinda dont have that option

alpine sequoia
#

I didn't get the steal from store option until 1.0 update.

manic bobcat
#

Please spoiler tag that guys

safe jolt
#

only seen it in the trailer

lofty lotus
#

Really?

jade kindle
#

Guys careful to spoilers, there are a lot of new players

manic bobcat
#

I have seen mods reminding people about him

#

So ¯_(ツ)_/¯

alpine sequoia
#

?

lofty lotus
#

I think it was just story progression that gives you the option, not the updates.

alpine sequoia
#

Still wouldn't do it.

#

It happened RIGHT after.

#

either after I got the true ending, or after I loaded into a new run.

lofty lotus
#

I could steal fine with the blood price update.

alpine sequoia
#

It would be really dumb if I only needed to do one more run to steal from best boi.

lofty lotus
#

I think it was an interaction with hermes or something.

alpine sequoia
#

:/ I've invested so much into hermes.

safe jolt
#

i havent encontered Thanatos yet. any particular reason for this?

alpine sequoia
#

I want my ambrosia back. XD

#

Ohhhhhhh

#

He takes a while.

safe jolt
#

ok

alpine sequoia
#

I encountered him on my 43rd run.

#

Maybe 48th.

cobalt maple
#

was there a hotfix pushed now?

safe jolt
#

got plenty of time there 😄

cobalt maple
#

I got an update

alpine sequoia
#

yeah

#

It's a minor update

#

Probably for a bug fix as they mentioned earlier.

safe jolt
#

like Uncle Poseidons boons and Coments 😄

alpine sequoia
#

I wish we could unlock outfits for the Gods.

#

That would be something funny.

#

Small

#

but funny

#

like Posiden in cargo shorts and a fishing hat.

safe jolt
#

would be cool with some costumes to the Prince 😄

quasi gorge
#

Costumes are always a huge plus in any game

fading gazelle
#

Would Aphrodite even wear any different outfit?

brisk trail
#

Hello, where do I report Hades bugs to?

alpine sequoia
#

Are you kidding me.

cobalt maple
#

aphrodite in clothes

alpine sequoia
#

Yes she would.

#

A hat

fading gazelle
#

f10 in-game @brisk trail

alpine sequoia
#

ONLY a hat.

#

Maybe shoes.

#

But that's it

cold mantle
#

was my 4th win
@daring niche oh I see, yeah you need to win a few more runs

daring niche

welp

#

ty for letting me know i guess

quaint wind

@iron loom f10 in game

oooh okay, thanks 🙂

the moment you exit the gates of the underworld and hopes to meet your mother and ends up locking at ||your old man dresed up and redy to send you back home||...

manic bobcat
#

Or you can just run it on laptop

iron loom
#

@quaint wind sry for the ping, I took a screenshot of the moment I found the glitch but continued the run I was in, but pressing F10 in game automatically takes a screenshot of the moment, live, is there a way to submit a glitch of a specific moment that has already past, but I still have the screenshot for?

broken field
#

if you give up during a run you can come back later to complete it?

fading gazelle
#

"give up"? No

#

"Quit"? Yes

broken field

i gave up and exited game, loaded back in and im in the run?

cold mantle
#

@iron loom I don't think so, at least not through the ingame bug report tool...

iron loom
#

same happened to me just now

#

ok, thank you @cold mantle

so give up is taking me to menu not house?

Unless you got a really teeny laptop

stone bison

what do you guys think of the aspect of ||gilgamesh|| so far?

manic bobcat
#

Give up: revert the file back to the moment you enter the courtyard
Quit: save your current room and quit so you can resume at that room

yep give up is taking me to main menu and if i resume my save it takes me into the room (in order to resume eg meg the boss)

#

hmm not sure what you mean by taking you into the room

#

let's say you are in the shop pre boss

#

quit and resume will bring you back to that shop

drifting thicket
#

They're saying that upon entry of a room, selecting the option Give Up should return you to the House proper.
It's not doing that.

manic bobcat
#

give up and resume will bring you back to the courtyard (in the house)

#

as if the run never happened

drifting thicket
#

Give Up is now returning you to the main menu and when you select your game file, it's putting you back in the room you were in when you selected Give Up.
It's not resetting you to the courtyard.

manic bobcat
#

is this a bug report?

drifting thicket
#

(Maybe not for everyone, but I'm hearing this a lot from multiple people.)

manic bobcat
#

it doesn't sound like that from his question

broken field
#

ok i beat the first boss and im in that transition phase where you can be healed, choose a new keepsake, sell boons and purchase from well of chiron, pressing give up and resume normally takes me to court yard, but now instead it is resuming my run as if i quit and resumed

fading gazelle
#

So you probably clicked quit

broken field
#

no i pressed give up i tested multiple times?

iron loom
#

no, clicking give up is doing to me the same that is doing to lincoln

manic bobcat
#

i see. sometimes interactions in that room will nullify the give up function

iron loom
#

happens multiple times

manic bobcat
#

such as buying items and such

broken field
#

its happened on the previous room too

iron loom
#

not only in that room, any room

#

any normal chamber, the effect is the same

manic bobcat
#

thanthink I swear the Give Up thing works normally as late as last night

iron loom
#

had to purposefully die to traps to I could go back to the house

manic bobcat
#

unless a new patch changed that

drifting thicket
#

There was a new patch, I believe. (I should append this by saying that said new patch was either yesterday or today.)

iron loom
#

I didn't update the game, so it's probably not a new patch thing

manic bobcat
#

ok testing that now

broken field
#

it worked for me a few runs ago, this new patch may have changed it?

iron loom
#

funny enough, it doesnt happen every run, only sometimes

#

weird

manic bobcat
#

maybe f10 worthy

#

if that happens again

broken field
#

so i'm wondering if its a bug or feature, iagoruby says that they haven't updated so i think its a bug

#

yeah i f10ed it XD

manic bobcat
#

sorry I misunderstood the question

iron loom
#

just closed the game and its updating now, so yeah, I'll see if it continues to happen, if so, ill F10 it too

broken field
#

no worries, i'm a bit tired so my communication is terrible

serene lava
#

is there a way i can remove my titan blood from one weapon

manic bobcat
#

did you either

  1. walk back to the bedroom after unlocking it?
  2. do a run with it and die?
#

if you did either of those, yeah, thank you for your investment

serene lava
#

XD

#

rip

narrow hemlock
#

the infernal arms are thirsty! they just want blood, slurp

manic bobcat
#

1,000,000 copies of Hades sold

#

Let's go

#

We can hope for DLC contents now, maybe?

buoyant merlin
#

Any word on what these last few updates were?

#

Guess just bug fixes

fading gazelle
#

Pretty much

potent carbon
#

aww yeah

#

my first clear, 14 runs

fading gazelle
#

Congrats 🎉

potent carbon
#

boss did 590 dmg to me

#

thank skelly tooth

violet scaffold
#

is there anything of vlaue in the administrative chamber or just stats for your runs ?

gusty swift
#

Huh, another hotfix?

fading gazelle
#

@violet scaffold You require access to the Admin Chamber for a lot of the lore progression for quite a few characters

#

Characters:||Nyx, Sisyphus, Orpheus, etc||

Since I haven't seen this posted here yet, thought y'all would appreciate the love this game is getting. https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2020/09/20/hades-has-quietly-become-one-of-the-best-reviewed-games-of-the-year/
@silent pumice No, no, no! The line in the summary is all wrong. Hades is God of the Dead, Thanatos is the God of Death. Gosh.

Forbes

You should absolutely be paying attention to Hades, and its sky high critic and fan scores.

violet scaffold
#

thx, so if I'm just into "making runs easier" I can forget it for now

fading gazelle
#

Oh progressing those relationships do make your runs easier

potent carbon
#

Now I gotta figure out how to clear without cheesing bosses from range with shield and bow

brisk trail
#

Cheese from range with the spear.

rapid forge
#

Dang how I play I get up in there face and cheese with the dash

misty ruin
#

In ||Styx||, do the ||tiny rooms each count as an encounter for the purposes of Charon items with limited durations?||

manic bobcat
#

yes

maiden copper
#

I believe so

fading gazelle
#

Absolutely

potent carbon
#

man I wanna max out hera cus I'm addicted to big dmg

#

but would it be smarter to unlock an aspect for each weapo nfirst

#

I tried using fists and it was really hard cus of final boss' spin attack

brisk trail
#

What is the difference between the Hades: Singles and Hades: Original Soundtrack releases in supergiantgames.bandcamp.com? Is Singles the exact same tracks featured in the OST, just less of them (the ones at the time of the 2018 releasy only)? Does anything else change?
And why isn't the bandcamp linked in #hades-faq , don't artists get a better cut of the money there anyway?

#

And if it is just that, why isn't the Singles release removed, wouldn't that make more sense?

spare ridge
#

idk man anyway can we talk about hottest to least hot characters tier list

#

Skelly is an easy S imo

remote moat
#

charon > skelly

manic bobcat
#

yall sleeping on my boy Asterius

#

have you seen them muscles?

spare ridge
#

charon > skelly
@remote moat close call

manic bobcat
#

who is your least favourite character?

potent carbon
#

as a newbie which aspect should I go for each weapon?

spare ridge
#

zeus’ on shield is amazing

#

so is chaos’

remote moat
#

least favorite hmm
tbh i dont really like hypnos

#

also i dont really like skelly

spare ridge
#

“hmm hey have you tried not dying?”

#

excuse me

manic bobcat
potent carbon
#

what about spear?

manic bobcat
#

don't @ me

narrow hemlock
#

i cant trust anyone that doesnt like hypnos!

spare ridge
#

i love zag’s aspect on spear

#

achilles’ is pretty fun to play around with too

remote moat
#

@manic bobcat what is that malphon aspect ?

#

at s

manic bobcat
#

Demeter

remote moat
#

good choice

#

= D

winter shuttle
#

oh is the purple shield that good?

#

i unlocked the other one

narrow hemlock
#

chaos is a fav

potent carbon
#

what's the one on the top left?

manic bobcat
#

it's the best shield, arguably the best weapon

winter shuttle
#

what boons you go for the purple shield?

spare ridge
#

chaos’ shield is really fun

manic bobcat
#

Doom

narrow hemlock
#

@potent carbon ||beowulf||

potent carbon
#

what weapon is that?

#

I guess I gotta unlock em first

vale kite
#

i will never understand people who put the spear's hades aspect at the bottom tiers

spare ridge
#

athena’s on chaos’ shield is the unsung hero

potent carbon
#

but I dunno how

maiden copper
#

Is that guan yu aspect ;-;
I despise that

narrow hemlock
#

brb putting hades aspect on the bottom of my tier to spite belgo

#

jk im too lazy to make tiers

#

i actually dont really use spear much lately

manic bobcat
maiden copper
#

I think most of my runs are on hades aspect spear lol

manic bobcat
#

good choice

narrow hemlock
#

im putting fox at the end of the tier list

hollow bane
#

is chaos shield still good after the nerf?

manic bobcat
#

I'm automatic SSS tier

narrow hemlock
#

not after that cup run you arent 🤧

rustic sorrel
#

Will there be Hades for Playstation?

manic bobcat
#

shhhhh

narrow hemlock
#

hahaha

#

fox i had faith in you you let me down

manic bobcat
#

I let myself down also. although tbh, I was racing against the runner up of the cup so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

narrow hemlock
#

@rustic sorrel supergiant said additional platforms will be considered later, but not what platforms they're considering

manic bobcat
#

yeah, that's the only reason, not because I sucked

#

xD

narrow hemlock
#

also didnt you 5sack

rustic sorrel
#

@narrow hemlock thxs

manic bobcat
#

ahh I don't remember. It's in the past now.

ebon thistle
#

Quick question - what happens when you use Call against the same god during a "conflict"?

manic bobcat
#

You become Canadian

ebon thistle
#

I I got an achievement for that, but no sure if anything special was suppose to happen...?

remote moat
#

you get an achievement

past mirage
#

You get a disdainful comment from the god you called, as well. In this game, a new voiceline is a true reward.

ebon thistle
#

Artemis said she would've shot me D:

past mirage
#

There are no actual bad repercussions, in case you were wondering.

ebon thistle
#

Nah, i was half-expecting the game to immdiately exterminate me right where i stood

#

but im kinda-sorta fine with that not happening

jagged vigil
#

should i start a new run or should i continue my run? (story wise)

wind nest
#

Continue would be my preference there’s no new early game content

#

It’s all late game afaik

jagged vigil
#

thanks

dry falcon
#

what's this 24 mb update?

potent carbon
#

what's a good shield build for first escape?

dry falcon
#

zeus and athena

#

you can go athena everything and never die

potent carbon
#

how does it work?

#

zeus on special?

balmy bluff
#

guys, why icons on some keepsakes?

manic bobcat
#

it means you maxed affinity with them

balmy bluff
#

like skelly on lucky tooth, Megaera on skull

jade kindle
#

it means you formed a bond with them

balmy bluff
#

ah, just that?

jade kindle
#

yup

balmy bluff
#

yep, i thought so

#

thanks. I played 100h+ hours until dec/19, now returing with the 1.0

potent carbon
#

@dry falcon what boons would you get from them on the shield?

balmy bluff
#

guess there are some new things to explore

winter shuttle
#

how do i unlock the hidden aspects?

spare ridge
#

@dry falcon what boons would you get from them on the shield?
@potent carbon i personally like special and dash reflects

#

for athena

winter shuttle
#

athena dash really is goat imo

potent carbon
#

but why zeus

spare ridge
#

zeus’s electricity effect on attack hit is great for CC

#

special’s good too

potent carbon
#

on shield?

spare ridge
#

ye

wind nest
#

Shield boons I like are Zeus and Dionysus

#

I also love ares on the Zeus aspect of the shield

spare ridge
#

I also love ares on the Zeus aspect of the shield
@wind nest that one by itself carried a few runs for me

cunning kelp
#

Zeus' cast is also really good

spare ridge
#

yeah

wind nest
#

I think posideon cast is the best simply because controlling enemy position opens up a lot more effective options

spare ridge
#

my favorite cast is probably artemis’, the crit’s insane even when not considering the extra damage

winter shuttle
#

why ares on zeus shield?

#

i usually want something to spread doom around the whole stage

spare ridge
#

when you use special on zeus’ shield it travels and deals good damage for a while

cunning kelp
#

Art's cast when you get the second projectile 👌

spare ridge
#

it’s a really big hitbox

wind nest
#

The Zeus shield can become an ape control spell, and ares doom could be procd on multiple enemies multiple times

spare ridge
#

plus with ares just increases the dps insanely

winter shuttle
#

can doom stack tho?

wind nest
#

But it’s not like a rapid fire damage source so something like poison or lightning don’t go crazy with it

spare ridge
#

also athena’s on zeus’ shield is great

remote moat
#

i like dionysus or demeter on zeus special
and then like aphro on attack

wind nest
#

Beagles yes but you need to unlock it by beating a run

spare ridge
#

can doom stack tho?
@winter shuttle you can get it to stack with a different boon from Ares

winter shuttle
#

@brisk trail there is one but you have to unlock it first and it's somewhat post-game

remote moat
#

also the poseidon special with zeus duo boon is really cool

wind nest
#

You don’t need the doom stack, the fact that you can continuously create doom is good enough

spare ridge
#

yes

wind nest
#

This finding surprised me too

winter shuttle
#

i usually only go for doom with the bow and spam bow special

spare ridge
#

the stack is good to have but at that point it’s kind of overkill

wind nest
#

It’s not overkill on bosses

spare ridge
#

i mean yeah

winter shuttle
#

i'm still low heat but ares bow was by far my easiest run yet

#

whats hell mode?

remote moat
#

tbh there is no postgame

#

its jsut

#

"the game"

#

since gameplay wise not much changes

#

the story just enriches the gameplay

hollow bane
#

doesnt the epilogue count as "post game"

remote moat
#

i mean usually you would say post game is after the story is finished

#

so after the epilogue

#

but eh

potent carbon
#

I mean I've been taking zeus and athena

remote moat
#

seems weird to call something postgame in a rogue like

potent carbon
#

but I still feel I do bad dmg

#

especially from elysium onwards

reef pasture
#

I break down Hades into: Main Game - Post-Credits - Post-Epilogue.

#

mostly because a lot of people think that beating the game means ||beating the final boss once, but that's not it, you need to see credits to beat the main game, and then you're in the post-credits stage||

#

but there's an interim period between post-credits and epilogue; then afterward you get the epilogue and complete it, you're in post-epilogue

frail sandal
#

Kind of a dumb question

#

but is there any plan to add more content (seasonal stuff not really story stuff, like halloween/christmas aspects) in the future or are updates from now just bug fixes

reef pasture
#

doubt they're adding seasonal stuff

lucid scaffold
#

yo I forget ,where do I go to show bugs/in-game errors?

ebon hazel
gusty slate
#

f10 ?

reef pasture
#

i don't think they've announced whether Hades is "done", all they said is that to keep alert and they'll talk about next steps of SGG in early 2021

#

the story and gameplay setup of Hades feels like DLC (even paid DLC) could totally be in the works

#

new storylines, new aspects, etc.

#

but that's anyone's guess

#

SGG might also be like "we think Hades is complete and are gonna tackle a new game" and hey even though I'd be sad that there's no more, would be excited to see what they come up with next! ofc we'd be thrilled if they said DLC/content updates would continue in Hades though!

sullen nebula
#

I am waiting for Olympians to find everything out and get angry in the dlc

lucid scaffold
#

thx

reef pasture
#

@sullen nebula hmmmm 👀

sullen nebula
#

hmmmm

remote moat
#

@sullen nebula did you play the epilogue ?

sullen nebula
#

yes

remote moat
#

||then thats kinda over allready since they " found out"||

reef pasture
remote moat
#

||what i cna see is adding extra stuff like extra weapons and like hades boons / zagreus boons new companions||

swift falcon
#

Honestly it would be fine with me if they move on after Hades

#

Maybe the occasional balance update

#

But I don’t need new content honestly, game feels complete

I am SO thirsty for Egyptian mythology I would accept anything tbh

maiden schooner
#

Do damage and critical rate boosts to attack include charge attacks and dash attacks?

brisk trail
#

I'm not sure if this is explained in game and I may have just missed it, but does bond do anything?

#

For example, I formed a max bond with cerberus, not sure what it's done

maiden schooner
#

It makes Artemis drop hints that youre not going to get anywhere with her

jade kindle
#

I'm not sure if this is explained in game and I may have just missed it, but does bond do anything?
@brisk trail not really, just lore stuff

maiden schooner
#

thats what it does lol

swift falcon
#

||You can get special keepsakes from certain characters||

brisk trail
#

Ah ok, thanks

swift falcon
#

Although I don’t know if you even need to max for that

jade kindle
#

||You can get special keepsakes from certain characters||
@swift falcon But you don't need a bond with them tho

reef pasture
#

For all intents and purposes for the time being, forging a bond is just getting a nice chibi icon next to their keepsake + warm and fuzzy feeling @brisk trail

swift falcon
#

Wait really? I thought that was how you got those lol

#

I guess you just naturally get them from talking?

reef pasture
#

(forging bonds is important, but for the most part for now, just take it as what i said)

jade kindle
#

You get the ||legendary keepsakes when you unlock their favor and give them the first ambrosia||

swift falcon
#

Ahh right

#

So not maxed, but close

#

It’s like 3 before right

jade kindle
#

Yup

swift falcon
#

Or something like that

jade kindle
#

But yeah bonds only unlock those icons and short descriptions in the keepsakes

late copper
#

Hey. I’m not sure if discussion or feedback is the right place so I’ll pitch it here: I’m on Switch and I have yet to receive the Codex from Achilles. I have about 20 hours in the game and have beaten the final boss already, and have spoken with Achilles every time possible. Is there another step required or is it actually missable?

#

I apologize if this has been mentioned before, my discord client isn’t letting me search this channel (too big maybe?) and I scrolled through the faq and tech help channel and didn’t see any mention of this.

safe jolt
#

@late copper
Gift him once and the codex is Yours to keep

late copper
#

Hm. I did, but he gave me his keepsake. I’ll try it again though, when I get another nectar. Many thanks

safe jolt
#

Sounds wierd though... i kinda just got it after my first gift of nectar

fair dove
#

Boiling blood good?

unreal vine
#

tfw i wanna drink the nectar

#

but never going to

late copper
#

Ok. I just traded for one and gave him another nectar, and he didn’t give me anything. Just said I was spoiling him.

chilly stump
safe jolt
#

Not my situation. Just trying to help out 😂

late copper
#

I assume that was intended for me? I will do this, many thanks

safe jolt
#

Though the Codex is obtainable at any time after Zagreus' third escape attempt, Achilles may not hand it over right away - multiple conversations may be required to trigger the correct event. The Codex cannot be opened prior to obtaining it.

#

I kinda talked to him after every atempt. So just remember your old fellow sparring partner each time your back👍

late copper
#

Aye, I've talked to him each time I can, must be in the dozens at least. A friend of mine playing on PC got it very quickly. I'll send the support email in and see if it's a shared issue, or if I've just gotten weirdly unlucky or something, lol.

safe jolt
#

Good luck tough!

chilly stump
#

Oh apologies Reni! Just typed the wrong R name. 😄

#

Definitely should have activated by then! Folks usually get the codex within their first ~6 runs.

late copper
#

Lol, no worries

jade stone
#

are all the characters 3D and everything else 2D assets?

potent carbon
#

is it a smart idea to trade ambrosia for titan blood early game?

safe jolt
#

Kinda a personal choise. You can buy it once in a while but it is as far as I know only gained once per weapon like the titanblood after defeating ||Achilles and the Minotour||

unreal vine
#

bro

potent carbon
#

but imma need way more titan blood than ambrosia right

unreal vine
#

who is the carefree muse

#

this chick got the nicest voice

potent carbon
#

it's a 1:1 trade so 🤷‍♂️

unreal vine
#

i’m just standing here listening lol

young pelican
#

do u mean ||Eurydice||

potent carbon
#

although I guess you can get 2 blood per run

#

and only one ambrosia

unreal vine
#

yeah rissa

#

this is so gooooood

safe jolt
#

Isn't it only one blood per run?

young pelican
#

A+ voice, love her accent

flat vapor
#

everyone praise ashley barrett, she does the singing

young pelican
#

no, it's 2 blood per run, provided you beat the final boss

safe jolt
#

Okey

unreal vine
#

does she have her own music

safe jolt
#

Kinda lost that one

twin path
#

hi everyone! i would like to know the name of the singer / band / audio workers that worked on Eurydice song, im so in love with the music

young pelican
#

you get blood from the first boss, diamond from the second, ambrosia from the third, and blood from the final

unreal vine
#

lol @twin path same

young pelican
#

That's Korb and Barrett

#

Darren Korb and Ashley Barrett

#

there's 3 versions of the song, one with each of them singing, and one with both of them singing together

twin path
#

thank you so much @young pelican ^^

flat vapor
#

(they also did the singing for every other sgg game dusa so that's more reason to pick them up)

#

The HADES OST is avable on Spotify!

Yes it is!!!!

it's also available for streaming on Supergiant's youtube channel

Good boss music. Kinda hyped up!

atomic sorrel
#

Holy crap, Hades is at a 98% on Steam still

#

Well, it dipped down to 97 but is back up

safe jolt
#

It is an affordable game but still amazing. Was hooked for hours from the get go!

#

The art is also good. Kinda charming with drawn games in this modern industry

hot yoke
#

Is the standard keepsake achi bugged?

gusty slate
#

There's a possibility, the achieves in general are a bit buggy from what I hear

hot yoke
#

Oof that's a bummer.

safe jolt
#

When I first met ||Pateoclus|| I tought he was a god or demigod like a washed up Herculies 😂 still his rewards are cuite godlike 👍

gusty slate
#

I think friends forever achiev has been given to people who just started for instance xD, but they're working on it

serene lava
#

the cursed slash is just too op

hot yoke
#

I just got my last keepsake but no achi for it. The others worked fine I guess? There's one I'm not sure about which is|| War-God's Bloodlust. Do you need to unlock a prophecy for that? I've already slain like 43k enemies before.||

vast quail
#

Hello is there a website for the best builds for every weapon?

manic bobcat
#

arguably some of the better builds. there is no best, obviously

vast quail
#

Ok thanks!

atomic sorrel
#

Oh holy crap

#

So uh

manic bobcat
#

try it

young pelican
#

absolutely try it

manic bobcat
#

it's a thing you should see at least once

atomic sorrel
#

If you look at reviews by Verified Steam Purchases, it appears to be the highest rated game of all time

#

That's only counting people who bought the game through Steam - so no free copies or keys bought elsewhere or whatever

manic bobcat
#

I mean Overwhelmingly Positive rating is really hard to come by, especially with 26k reviews

atomic sorrel
#

Oh deffo

#

But for comparison like uh

manic bobcat
#

I hope Hades gets a nomination for the end of year Steam reward

#

also Risk of Rain 2 is such a big contender

#

although RoR2 release is much more flawed than Hades

atomic sorrel
#

Portal 2 is the highest-rated overall, but it has a 78 from verified purchases

narrow hemlock
#

we're all voting hades right 😌

atomic sorrel
#

Hades has a 94

manic bobcat
#

I'm a big fan of both but Hades is definitely better, agreed

#

Hell RoR2 contents are not even out yet. The devs rushed to a finish which is a big minus in my eyes.

narrow hemlock
#

sgg devs looking at my gameplay stats and seeing like 90% of my runs being fists lol

atomic sorrel
#

Hades is possibly one of the best games I've ever played.

It might not have the same emotional impact on me as, say, Outer Wilds (the exploration game not the RPG), but holy crap in general it is just so good

thick ledge
#

i havent finished the story yet

reef oracle
#

I reached the end credits today and just...WOW... I am glad I saw this game played back in 2018. The game has been amazing and a huge thank you to SSG for making it!

manic bobcat
#

yeah, ||honestly Hades is not an emotional trainwreck for me, compare to say transistor or bastion.|||

#

but the gameplay, man oh man, I stay for the gameplay

thick ledge
#

but im absolutely loving how fun the game is in conjunction with being a roguelike with an actual good story

atomic sorrel
#

Ahhh no spoilers here

serene lava
#

question if i give up after the first room clear are there any penalties ?

manic bobcat
#

I guess I didn't consider that a spoiler but ill just tag in case

#

@serene lava no, the run just never happened

atomic sorrel
#

Anyway, Hades reminds me a lot of Divinity: Original Sin 2 in terms of ambition and like... Just how impressive it is

manic bobcat
#

your save is reverted to the moment you enter the couryard

atomic sorrel
#

Both are games that have insane scope and that shouldn't work, but do.

manic bobcat
#

the dialogues are very throughout, also. characters have comments on almost everything.

atomic sorrel
#

Yeah, it's insane

manic bobcat
#

I guess the community helped with that to some extent. but still, the devs actually carried the feedbacks out.

atomic sorrel
#

I wonder if it's actually possible to calculate the different combinations of possible runs in terms of player options with weapons and boons and whatnot (so not counting rooms)

manic bobcat
#

Now I am reading negative comments on the game to see how valid they are... Should be fun.

flat vapor
#

wonder how many are gonna be about egs lol

manic bobcat
#

From the few negative reviews I am reading, most of them think the game is average, not "horrendously" bad. They seem to have a problem with the grind and just the nature of roguelite in general. Just not their cup of tea, which is fair enough I suppose.

#

Some complaints about crashes but every game has some of those.

atomic sorrel
#

I remember the announcement of Hades coinciding with being able to buy it instantly

manic bobcat
#

Some poor soul spent 95 hours with God Mode and couldn't clear the first run, negative review. I wish I can give them a hug T.T

hollow drum
#

Haven't even tried God Mode what does it change?

manic bobcat
#

Each time you die (consecutively I think), you get a stacking buff that decreases damage taken.

narrow hemlock
#

gives dmg reduction

reef oracle
#

dmg resistance that increases from 20% the more you fail

narrow hemlock
#

increases 2% each death and caps at 80%

#

I recommend it a lot bc honestly a bunch of my friends prob wouldn't have picked up the game without that feature as more accessible difficulty

hollow drum
#

I just realized how small brain i am shadegrief

#

I thought it was a super hard mode for some reason zaglol

manic bobcat
#

and it's called God Mode, instead of the condescending "Easy Mode"

split swift
#

Hell Mode is the hard mode

Hello guys! Sorry for the dumb question, i bought hades today and saw my friends argue about controller vs keyboard, is there a "better" option or is it up to you?

paper light
#

I play with keyboard and have had no issues beating the game.

manic bobcat
#

either option works (I used to use both to clear the game). but the devs recommend controller, and i think most people also use some kind of gamepad, at least on this server.

flat vapor
#

i play completely fine with kbm

lilac girder
#

The fire of aspholdeus is my main issue with keyboard, other than that i enjoy it for the diablo experience i have

#

But yeah i dash in fire way too much XD

#

Thanks then, guess ill keep playing like that!

hallow yew
#

yee asphodel is annoying with mnk. zagreus is so glidey

#

bow is way better with controller. other than that id say theyre fairly even but controller has an edge

lilac girder
#

Bow? I would have thought the exact opposite XD

#

Cause of the aiming ability

calm bear
#

This game is so great

hazy hatch
#

ok I swear

calm bear
#

I haven’t beat it yet but I love games like this

hazy hatch
#

asterius is giving me generic lines

#

how the hell do I get him to give me the thing

RNG conversation options

narrow hemlock
#

make sure you're wearing fists. ||contrary to before where what you equipped didnt matter, 1.0 changed a few things.||

hazy hatch
#

bless u tatz

#

❤️

narrow hemlock
#

hope that does the trick friend

#

also enjoy new fisties cause theyre fun 😌

hazy hatch
#

I absolutely would

#

IF I HAD THEM

manic bobcat
#

maybe RNGesus bless you.

hallow yew
#

bless u tatz omg

winter shuttle
#

what u guys use with gloves?

flat vapor
#

zeus or athena attack

manic bobcat
#

I use Demeter Attack boon with Artic Blast

wheat canopy
#

I can't really seem to win with anything other than the shield. What are strong go-to builds that people use?

manic bobcat
hazy hatch
#

Chiron bow is my ez gaem build

#

needs full upgrades though

#

get literally any status on attack and zeus or artemis on special

wheat canopy
#

Doom + hit everything in the room without aiming seems to be the best combo for me.

#

Going to try the bow a bit more, I think.

winter shuttle
#

@wheat canopy ares bow, use special and kite

#

it's stupid easy

wheat canopy
#

Does the special apply doom on the bow?

manic bobcat
#

Honestly you can cheese the first run with Rocket Bomb Triple Bomb/Cluster Bomb combo.

#

yes, although special build on base bow drops off in the later stages

wheat canopy
#

Do you mean with the Rail?

manic bobcat
#

yes

fair dove
#

Man I got killed by Theseus and bull again

wheat canopy
#

Definitely seems like you need to rely on the bomb. ammo management is a pain

fair dove
#

This so hard man

wheat canopy
#

They were a hard wall for me for some time. Guys are jerks about it too.

hazy hatch
#

well that is why I specified Chiron bow

wheat canopy
#

I really wish there was a way to refund titan blood.

manic bobcat
#

there is...

#

kinda

hazy hatch
#

???

manic bobcat
#

do you know the give up trick?

wheat canopy
#

Likely means resetting before ending a run

gusty slate
#

Spend the blood, test it on a run. Once test is over, just give up. You'll return to courtyard with unspent blood. Just make sure to not return to bedroom after spending blood

hazy hatch
#

@wheat canopy losing some titan blood definitely isn't the end of the world

maiden matrix
#

is extreme measures removed in hell mode or am i just tripping? it's been a while since i played

wheat canopy
#

It is when you're crap with pretty much all the weapons but one, heh

gusty slate
#

Just gotta keep experimenting and testing

#

One day all bounties claimed

hazy hatch
#

search #h1-victory-boasting for "epileptizer" for a garbagebag build that got me a win and barely even used my weapon

gusty slate
#

Cast builds yeah?

wheat canopy
#

Definitely used some cast builds to carry me a bit. Demeter's lasers of doom are my favorite.

gusty slate
#

Dio and Pos duos for casts are nifty, separately

hazy hatch
#

there's also vengeful mood builds if you're feeling REALLY sus

flat vapor
#

i don't even have a favorite weapon anymore, i just main cast builds now

gusty slate
#

I just use them all, not like I'm doing anything higher than 20 heat lol

hazy hatch
#

does anyone know what delta chamber does with Eris?

#

I've always been too scared to find out

flat vapor
#

what do you mean

manic bobcat
#

you mean with Hestia?

hazy hatch
#

sorry yes, hestia

#

derp

serene lava
#

what do i do with ambrosia ?

flat vapor
#

you can reload manually at any time

manic bobcat
#

it doesn't do anything

#

with or without Hestia

hazy hatch
#

yeet

flat vapor
#

delta is a trap option anyways, but you can still reload manually

manic bobcat
#

Delta Chamber is the red headed step child of Hades

hazy hatch
#

god I wish we could reroll hammers

gusty slate
#

2strong

flat vapor
#

my idea of bringing back cooling chamber was ignored, so ig it's truly dead 😔

fervent dagger
#

how do I unlock 4th aspect of bow?

manic bobcat
gusty slate
#

Hazard bomb is amusing

manic bobcat
#

Eris Hazard Bomb is the ultimate chad move

hazy hatch
#

I had Hazard Bomb, Delta Chamber, and Flurry Fire to choose from

#

this might be the end of the streak lads

flat vapor
#

just get hazard bomb

#

it's not really much of an issue

hazy hatch
#

no

#

hazard bomb is no bueno for me

mellow finch
#

Massive spin on Hades aspect is my jam.

hazy hatch
#

the one time I picked it up I immediately blew myself up

mellow finch
#

Covers almost the whole room in Tartarus, and basically the whole room in ||Styx||.

hazy hatch
#

don't forget the entire barge of death

mellow finch
#

Oh, of course.

gloomy lintel
#

with Distant Memory (+10% damage to distant foes) does that apply to damage from DoTs like Decay, Hangover and Jolted?

fair dove
#

This game is freaking unbeatable

narrow hemlock
#

takes practice

hazy hatch
#

it may appear so, but in fact this is a lie concocted by Hades to confound and befuddle you

#

alright whatever, we going cast build now

#

this will be fine

brisk trail
#

At first I thought the first boss was waaayyy overpowered, but after a lot of unlocks and tries, I consistently breeze past them. I almost just beat the third boss by a hair. God, I love this game

spark laurel
#

Does the starred portrait that changes in the lounge by trade mean or do anything in game?

hazy hatch
#

you can get some unique dialogue

spark laurel
#

ahh

hazy hatch
#

does anything feel luckier than getting rare crop on your single common boon?

viscid hinge
#

Does reduced damage from foes also apply to bosses?

#

or can you not take reduced dmg from bosses?

hazy hatch
#

it does apply

tame jewel
#

How do you unlock the 4th aspect for the; bow, fists, gun and sword?

cyan python
#

its in spoiler chat

#

pinned

drifting citrus
#

am i able to use Titan Blood without having to unlock all the stupid weapons?

tame jewel
#

ok thanks

drifting citrus
#

i don't wanna waste time gathering keys to unlock pointless content :v

gusty slate
#

The Infernal Arms are quite sad

cyan python
#

you need all the weapons

drifting citrus
#

dammit, guess i won't ever be able to use this then

#

thanks for answering

frigid scarab

is beating the final boss first try under 20 attempts impressive

cyan python
#

sure!

gusty slate
#

It is if you believe so

cyan python
#

I think too many people here are concerned with where they "should" be in the game

#

just have fun lol, its a game

gusty slate
#

I did that too when I started off

spark laurel
#

^ took me 50 hours to beat chamber 5 in gungeon.

#

just have fun this game is so well made

cyan python
#

gungeon shudders

frigid scarab
#

i sucked at gungeon till i switched to controller]

cyan python
#

I sucked at it for a while

spark laurel
#

i have like 750 hours in it on kb&m

#

i love that game

cyan python
#

still do because Im not great as bullet hell games

ocean kayak
#

i hesitate to suggest it in feedback, cuz the game's already in 1.0 and they probably aren't taking any real spins on gameplay anymore

#

but what do you/here/all think about some more direct use for darkness/keys in runs

#

there's a lot of stuff in feedback about just running out of uses for those two, even given the upgrades to health/fated authority and the mirror stuff, plus the trading sequence.

#

in my head, i can see some option to improve a weapon's stats directly before a run by pouring darkness or a key or two into it

gusty slate
#

darkness gives me life

#

keys let me call the fates

cyan python
#

meh I think theyve locked into that problem with the broker

ocean kayak
#

i like to imagine skelly stirring a well of charon-esque cauldron.
"dip that thing in here boyo, add some darkness, and BAM!"

gusty slate
#

Look there boyo your weapon is now stronger, hah, aren't I amazing? (no it's a lie he'll fall for a prank again >:) )

#

Could always give it a try, dunno

#

They added a lot of sinks in v1.0 from what I hear

winter river
#

@frigid scarab I mean, I didn't beat redacted until attempt 134. But that was because the narrator kept killing me first :p

#

They added a lot of sinks in v1.0 from what I hear
@gusty slate
Nothing for darkness though. There's literally nothing left for me to use it on unless I get a special deal from Wretched Broker.

edgy hamlet
#

ey fellas, does anyone know if fiery presence works with armored enemies? like, if "undamaged" is talking about just health

flat vapor
#

armor counts as health

edgy hamlet
#

idk where I saw something that gave me this thought, but idk maybe it'd always be active with armored enemies

winter river
#

I'd just like a permanent broker deal to get rid of darkness. I'll pay 500 darkness for one of litterally any other currency at this point cause its sitting there now

edgy hamlet
#

and then when they lose the armor it stops

winter river
#

Fleece me broker, just take my darkness

manic bobcat
#

Take my keys

#

Take my booze

#

Is there a way to take the camera back to see more of the screen, for screenshot purposes?

mellow finch
#

Only in the house, requires a specific upgrade.

honest forge
#

Hey everyone, loving the game so far! But I have a question! How do I ||get Thanatos to appear? I've been through thirty runs and beat Hades three times but he hasn't shown up yet. Do I just have to keep playing?|| Thanks for any replies!

unreal vine
#

tfw i got 30 plus runs and no where near hades

#

😭

manic bobcat
#

Move at your own pace. Honestly the real race starts after your first run.

honest forge
#

It'll happen bro! You just have to find the boon setup that works best for you! My first win was with the Artemis cast, I just buffed it like crazy and spammed it as much as I could

unreal vine
#

yeah of course

#

the rail gun zeus combo

#

or the staff and uhhhh the dude with doom

#

farthest i’ve gone with those two builds

honest forge
#

I'm awful with the rail gun hahaha it's the hardest weapon for me to use

unreal vine
#

man that’s easy mode

#

i can’t get anywhere with the sword

honest forge
#

I think I rely too much on stunning the enemies so when they just push through my bullets it's difficult for me

fair dove
#

Is the satyr guaranteed to be in the mini boss tunnel?

#

I made it to temple for the first time

#

But I’m gonna die soon

smoky halo
#

hes guarenteed to be in one of em

fair dove
#

Oh wtf

flat vapor
#

nope, it's rng

#

never in the 1st chamber, random chance to be in 2-5th one

fair dove
#

Is it in one of the two mini boss tunnel?

#

Like 100% in one of those two?

#

Or nah

#

Random between 2-5?

flat vapor
#

pretty sure it's weighted to be 2-3 chambers

#

so 4-5 is quite unlucky

cinder lichen
#

I swear ever since 1.0 I have always seen that Satyr

flat vapor
#

it can be any chamber between 2-5

kind moss
#

hold on

cinder lichen
#

Like every time I go into both of the mini boss tunnels I always remember seeing the giant Satyr

kind moss
#

they're talking about the sack

#

the giant satyr is random

bright pecan
#

You're talking about the one with the big pillar in the middle, right?

#

That's random. Doesn't always show.

cinder lichen
#

Oh.
My bad.
Also oof. still

kind moss
#

there's a few different minibosses

flat vapor
#

oh

#

dang, my apologies, didn't read enough

cinder lichen
#

So, wait, the sack is never in the first one you enter, right?

kind moss
#

ye

just bought the game any tip for meg
