[brisk trail]

Is exclusive access a noob trap or is it actually good?

[ebon basin]

Also guan yu builds that are good? Not liking this aspect at all

[fringe garnet]

You have any god recommendations for the fist weapon I enjoy it a lot but can’t really make it work
@brisk trail fists are my favorite! artemis attack is very good, especially if paired with support fire. zeus is very good. demeter is very good if you get the "explode at 10 stacks of chill" bonus. dio is pretty good actually, especially if you increase max stacks from 5 to 8 and get some duos going.

poseidon is bad on fists, i don't like ares on fists, athena on fists is meh, aphro on fists can be good (highest % damage buff!!!) but only if properly duoed IMO, i'd avoid it

[ebon basin]

Gonna end up going aph and athena probablu

[fringe garnet]

Also guan yu builds that are good? Not liking this aspect at all
@ebon basin guan yu is really only viable once it's max upgraded imo

[ebon basin]

Ah im inky at lvl 3

[fringe garnet]

but consider using the spin attack to heal only. otherwise, focus on the special and jabs

[ebon basin]

Yea im gonna go full special

Just got 60% speical from chaod

Chaos

[brisk trail]

What is the fire support?

[fringe garnet]

Is exclusive access a noob trap or is it actually good?
@brisk trail if you can get it early it's really good. if you're picking it up in elysium, eh. it can pay off, but diminishing returns

What is the fire support?
@brisk trail artemis boon where every hit you land shoots a supporting arrow. it's really REALLY good for fast/light attack builds like the fists

[brisk trail]

Ahhh I had that last run with spear and was thinking how good it would be with fists haha

[ebon basin]

Battle rage kinda easy room clears with guan yu

200% after kills

[gusty slate]

paired with that higher base damage must cut shades down ez

bosses don't care too much though sadly

[ebon basin]

Hate rolling aries usually

[gusty slate]

Ares has nifty duos

[ebon basin]

Yea im probably gonna purge it to get to the next stage

Hopefully i get another bad boon

Oof it got upgraded its 230% now

I like using ||pom blossom keepsake all run||

Bad roll

[austere jacinth]

That keepsake is great. It's my 'default', though I'll switch in others if I need/want something specific.

[ebon basin]

I usually switch to it during styx

So many rooms

Hermes side hustle also is super pog during styx

[fringe garnet]

if you can get side hustle EARLY it's also very good, definitely pays for itself

[austere jacinth]

God of Trade ❤️

[ebon basin]

I roll for it soemtimes tbh

Its so much gold

[fringe garnet]

That keepsake is great. It's my 'default', though I'll switch in others if I need/want something specific.
@austere jacinth it is so good

[ebon basin]

Rolling hermes always pays off somehow

Megaoof purging divine dash over battle rage

[austere jacinth]

He's my fave of the Olympians because he's presented so differently. I love the others, sure, but Hermes has his own reasons for helping, his own connections etc. Wouldn't have guessed he'd be my fave

[ebon basin]

250% bonus samage after kills is too good for speeding

[small rivet]

I have a question

Does anyone watch haelian? Why is his health and boon information different colors than mine?

[gusty slate]

Probably upgrades?

[small rivet]

The side bar that shows which boons you have, is rainbow for him. And he has a sigil next to his health

[gusty slate]

Oh upgrades late game

[small rivet]

I'm VERY very far and I haven't seen them

I'm near the epilogue, I haven't seen it

Is there any pre requisites?

[gusty slate]

I know the big sinks from contractor, but supposedly there's something past epilogue?

I haven't reached it though so can't really say

[small rivet]

I'm sponged probably about 18k of gems and stuff into the mirror,

[gusty slate]

There's a darkness sink ||ranks||, which might be the sigil

[small rivet]

So do we know which catagories you need to have at all?

[ebon basin]

Are we talking about ||themes||

?

[gusty slate]

I think so?

[icy zephyr]

I think so

[ebon basin]

Yea i think so too

@small rivet keep playing you'll find out soon enough

Honestly the less u know the better

This game has so much amazing content

[austere jacinth]

So much. And I still want more. xDD

[ebon basin]

Ive gottsn 3 obol rooms in a row

Free titans blood this game

[gusty slate]

surprise diamond instead

[ebon basin]

No pls font jinx me xD

Such a feels bad moment when i reach there with 1.4k and i c a diamond

[gusty slate]

I shed tears everytime

[ebon basin]

||gwaun yu charge suckkkkkkkkkskksksksksks||

Almost not worth trying to heal

At max does it atleast heal 2 per tick?

[gusty slate]

Nope

[spare ridge]

well then

[ebon basin]

Ig being the first hidden it makes sense its the worst

Still

Kinda sadddd

[spare ridge]

the sword hidden seems to be good

[gusty slate]

Don't listen to 'em infernal arm I know you have potential

[ebon basin]

I think its over tuned

[spare ridge]

haven’t had the chance to use it yet but i unlocked it yesterday i’m sure

[ebon basin]

Base damage is so god damn high

[spare ridge]

the last hit jesus christ

[leaden patio]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[ebon basin]

I think dashing somehow continues your attack combo

[spare ridge]

the special is pretty interesting gotta say

[gusty slate]

Dashing doesn't break the combo yeah

[ebon basin]

So the slow speed is kinda able to be mitigated that way

[gusty slate]

Just slip n slide into attacks

[spare ridge]

yeah i tried that on skelly

[ebon basin]

Yea its not as bad as ppl said it was

Hell

[spare ridge]

so far i only got for the spear sword n shield

[ebon basin]

Athena dash plus the special field

Easy reflects

[gusty slate]

I've seen someone do 8k hit

[spare ridge]

i got the 4th aspect spoiled to me (just the name but still)

[ebon basin]

I was unaware the force field slowed attacks as well

Untill recently

[spare ridge]

it do

nice

[ebon basin]

By alot

Even thesus spear is slowed to atleast where u can see it and reflect it

[leaden patio]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[spare ridge]

i’ve been wondering about the shield’s 4th aspect

[gusty slate]

Shuts off traps too

[spare ridge]

like it doesn’t seem that good

but not bad either

[leaden patio]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[gusty slate]

Shield 4th has nice throw base damage

[spare ridge]

for sure

[ebon basin]

Ive used it for cast builds

[spare ridge]

i like the cast system it’s got too

[small rivet]

I'm a big fan of all the legendary arms except spear

[spare ridge]

glad the dash attack’s the same so it lets you do some quick shots every now and then

[ebon basin]

Atm same

Fck spear dude wth am i supposed to do with the spin

[wide hill]

Guan yu is super fun but kinda bad

[small rivet]

You get a hammer that makes it go farther, if not you don't use it

[spare ridge]

the throw might be like the upside for it

[small rivet]

The throw is even kinda eh?

[wide hill]

Hades aspect is my favourite but it basically requires the quick spin to be good

[spare ridge]

like you don’t have to retrieve the spear is what i’m getting at

[wide hill]

But when you get it it feels awesome to use

[spare ridge]

i love hades’ too

especially bc most of the time you get the faster charge from the hammer

super good

[small rivet]

The whole kit is kinda dookie, every other kit is so helpful, lifesteal is even kinda not great

[spare ridge]

ye

[gusty slate]

spear 4th has higher base damage moveset

[wide hill]

Achilles feels kinda meh to me, I hate the spear special without guan yu. Idg how its some people’s fave

[spare ridge]

yup

not a fan

[small rivet]

Yeah spear has highest damage, but there's so much better

[gusty slate]

I like it for cast build and 'extra dash' lul

[small rivet]

Do y'all have the gauntlet one

[ebon basin]

Its like a worse version of the sword lifesteal upgrade tbh

[spare ridge]

nope

[ebon basin]

I love the sword hammer upgrade

Super fun

[wide hill]

Gauntlet 4 seems fun but I don’t have it (yet)

[spare ridge]

the lifesteal one? yeah

[small rivet]

Gilgamesh

[wide hill]

Sword life steal is crazy fun

[ebon basin]

With zag and hermes speed

U can get your health back so fast

[small rivet]

Yeah lifesteal can be nuts if you get that fast slash hammer also

[spare ridge]

the only weapon i have maxed out is sword on zag’s aspect

[wide hill]

I don’t remember is it on kill or on hit?

[small rivet]

You can get NEAR immortal if you stay hitting

On hit

[spare ridge]

still kinda pissed about that

cheeky bastard

[small rivet]

2% health back per hit

[wide hill]

Flurry rush hammer seems really good with it then

[spare ridge]

but u lose like

idk 50%

[small rivet]

If you're hitting speedy like, you can get like 20% health back in 2 seconds

[spare ridge]

or 40 can’t recall rn

[small rivet]

Yeah, but if you have flurry slashes it's really worth it

[ebon basin]

50 im pretty sure

[spare ridge]

oh ok

still worth it

[small rivet]

I would never take lifesteal first, use it to compliment something you already have

[ebon basin]

I think its 2 hp on hit tho

No 2% lemme check

[spare ridge]

yeah

it’s 2% i think

idk it’s been a bit since i’ve seen that upgrade

[small rivet]

It is 2%, but you lose 40% max health when you get it

[spare ridge]

oh it’s 40% even better

[gusty slate]

it's oly 40%? I swore it was higher

[wide hill]

Wow guan yu is super undertuned lol

[spare ridge]

correct

[small rivet]

I'm 80% sure it's 40%, it might be 50%>

Yeah it's kinda just to get into the aspects at this point

[wide hill]

Guan yu needs a faster spin or like only a 40% reduction

[small rivet]

The bow is my favorite though

[wide hill]

Maybe both tbh

[spare ridge]

what’s it do

[small rivet]

The bow?

[spare ridge]

yup

[gusty slate]

Wiki says 60%, I know it's 50% at least

[ebon basin]

Sword lifesteal gammer upgrade is 2 health on hit anf 60% hp and healing loss

[spare ridge]

just out of curiosity

[small rivet]

Search it up, it's really interesting

[ebon basin]

Worse than i remeber

[spare ridge]

alright brb

[wide hill]

Bow 4 is cool, I tried it using the save exploit

Don’t have it though

[small rivet]

Yeah that's worse than I thought, the bow is super handy for groups

[ebon basin]

Well gonna keep this spear 4 run going prob gonna ff on hades tho

[wide hill]

my fastest clear was with hades spear, I got crazy lucky with fast spin + dash attack triple hit + Demeter on attack, just melted things while you stay far away

[gusty slate]

@quaint wind

[wide hill]

Generally don’t like spear but that was my fave build maybe ever

[dense prism]

lol

[zealous galleon]

thanks mods

[quaint wind]

@gusty slate thanks for the ping, got it taken care of

[brisk trail]

i got the charge special + exploding special on spear with perfect artmis boons and was hitting for like 1.3k but then power cut in styx

[ebon basin]

Turned on the time counter in settings and hermes mentioned it

[gusty slate]

My hero

[warm marsh]

Does anyone know how cross save will work? Is it possible to send Nintendo Switch save to PC or is it only you can send your pc save to switch? Is it back and forth?

[ebon basin]

Love the small details

Fighting charron with spear 4

Wish me luck

[gusty slate]

Good luck you got this

[wide hill]

My fave Greek myth detail in the whole game was probably when ||you and Dionysus trick Orpheus into saying that Zagreus and Dionysus are the same person. Such a good detail ||

(Not rly spoilers so I thought it fine to put here)

[ebon basin]

Oof

8 health but still at full deatu defiances

[wide hill]

Gl lol

[gusty slate]

Just gotta spin 500 times to heal

[ebon basin]

I tried and after i got back to full i ended up going right back down bec of the animation time

Still won tho

He ported me to patroclus anwyays

I could've lost death defiances

Darn

The one time i play super safe

[gusty slate]

The heals are nice too though

[vapid pollen]

Charon gave me such an asswhoopin when I first tried I’ve not been back yet

[ebon basin]

I think the first time you're too confused and suprised to fight properly

[gusty slate]

One of the hardest hitting weapons ingame... the ||oar||

[ebon basin]

And then u get hit once and ur even more confused that u have no health

[vapid pollen]

True. Plus I was doing a run with a weapon I hadn’t used before

[wide hill]

I beat Charon first try but it was a wild twist

And took me low

[dense prism]

i should probs go back and try that, first time i did i was like "whaaaaaaaaaat is going onnnnnn"

[ebon basin]

Suicide chariots are irritating

Least fav mob

[vapid pollen]

Maybe when I’m done collecting and focus more on synergy building I’ll give them a try again

[gusty slate]

meow

[robust sundial]

[ebon basin]

My boons are kinda bad for gwaun yu i didnt gey any hammer upgrades for special

All i have is 200% special aph and 60% chaos

It feels very low damage

Gonna hope for some shop death defiances

1.2k obols, diamond from styx charron shop

This was a horrible end to my run lmao

[vestal reef]

not a very good aspect

[ebon basin]

Ur not wrong

[tepid plover]

me trying to buy the badge

https://imgur.com/a/xwFDOF9

nice

[brisk trail]

if u buy a hammer from a shop does that mean u can get 3?

[ebon basin]

Wait

Yup just random

Hmmm

[gusty slate]

Should be

[ebon basin]

Not sure that can happen

If it can ive never seen it

I ended up buying anvil and i have triple jab with athena attack

Could be okay for now

[jovial bramble]

Is there a particular channel to post potential bugs ?

[gusty slate]

or #h1-tech-support for Switch

[jovial bramble]

What is F10

[gusty slate]

Should be a bug report keybind ingame for PC

Default is F10, may need to alt-tab to the bug reporter popup

[inland shell]

Really nice to see Hades still getting its due: https://youtu.be/mFF5X9xuGwQ

[jovial bramble]

Ah dang, I didn't know about F10 so I manually took a screenshot

and then closed the game 😓

[gusty slate]

Can link and describe screenshot in bug reporter too

[ebon basin]

Yo wtf is this ||purple snake laser thing||

90 games in and never seen this in styx lmao

[gusty slate]

Yeah I find it to be a pretty rare encounter

[tepid plover]

if u buy a hammer from a shop does that mean u can get 3?
@brisk trail no

[gusty slate]

but it does indeed exist

[brisk trail]

Doomstones brother, here for payback

[tepid plover]

only way to get 3 hammers, is with ||anvil on styx||

[gusty slate]

Soft cap for hammers is 2, can only get 3 with ||anvil at styx|| which is random

[brisk trail]

Had one spawn to help ||rat urn boss||

[ebon basin]

Small question

For something like dio or dem will the spin attack from spear 4 stack their curses?

[agile saddle]

Yes

Each hit is separate

[ebon basin]

Alr then maybe the run isnt over

1 defianve gwyn yu hades

Lets seee

[agile saddle]

Each hit can crit as well I am pretty sure

[dusk night]

@tepid plover are you getting the regular badge or are you going the extra mile for the unseen foil badge like a true devotee?

[tepid plover]

how do you even get the foil one

[dusk night]

buy all the foil cards lul

[gusty slate]

there's 2 of em

[tepid plover]

and do both of them show on your profile?

[dusk night]

or be lucky enough to get them i suppose

[gusty slate]

I need to stop drinking it seems

[dusk night]

yeah

well one shows on the game itself

but you can feature both

or whichever you prefer

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/551776218236583985/768569163811651594/unknown.png

[tepid plover]

dusa foil card cost almost 3 bucks

lol

no

[dusk night]

ye its a bit crazy

i got one for less than 2

[tepid plover]

"a bit

[dusk night]

took a while tho

not worth at tbf

at all*

but ye i love the game, never bothered to craft a foil badge b4 now

[tepid plover]

i guess it is worth if you really want, i just dont feel like spending that much money lol

[dusk night]

yeah i think it cost me around 5 - 7 bucks in total

but i waited for ages for them to eventually be listed for cheaper

[tepid plover]

I am in love with the mini profile tho

[dusk night]

i have all the unlocks for the game except a few animated stickers

or whatever you call them

Tartarus is really nice for sure

[ebon basin]

15 ambrosia for a ||theme|| well spent

[tepid plover]

well it doesnt have much use

so yeah well spent

[ebon basin]

I like it

Makes the game more fun to be able to chase certain things

Boosts my motivation to play

[dusk night]

really diggin how my profile looks now for once, dont mind the name bit of a stoopid meme. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/551776218236583985/768570647324262420/unknown.png

[deep geyser]

Ooh nice

[tepid plover]

lmfao

nice name

i wish there was a frame too

but the cerberus one will do

[dusk night]

ye for sure

[tepid plover]

since i got the cerberus background

[dusk night]

i switch it up

i had the full dio profile the other day

[tepid plover]

[dusk night]

ill switch it back some day soon and show ya

[woven cipher]

is there a visual bug with eris and achilles aspect, where the visuals of + damage doesn't show?

[dense prism]

the twin fists zag background is p hot ngl

[woven cipher]

but the damage still gets bonus?

[tepid plover]

the twin fists zag background is p hot ngl
it really is

but puppy!

[dusk night]

^^

i like the parchment one

had that rocking when i themed my profile around Aphrodite the other day

[tepid plover]

can I put an animated sticker in my description?

[dusk night]

ah you can feature it in a showcase

item showcase

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/551776218236583985/768572187841265734/unknown.png

thats mine for now

they're all animated

[silk remnant]

I know I'm all for house banter but whenever Hades is sassing Zag I'm like "shut up he is trying his best" lmao

[pearl sparrow]

I have more than 100 escape attempts but I still don't know which is my favourite combination of Weapon + God

[austere jacinth]

I just got the Than and Meg stickers. I'm sad there's no animated Zag T.T

[tepid plover]

im ok with puppy

[silk remnant]

I really like in the game launch, one of the highlights is able to pet Cerberus, tbh tho besides the character designs I got interested to that aspect right away haha (same with petting the cat in Spiritfarer)

[ebon basin]

Hermes 30% attack speed with sword 4

Its a free win

[wheat pecan]

How the heck do you see your achievements in Epic Games? Haha

Bought it there day 1 to support super giants but waited until 1.0 to play and I'm regretting it lol

[brisk trail]

god i love sword 4

thought it was going to be lame until i swung it

instantly sold me

[austere jacinth]

It has a really weighty feel. It's satisfying.

Also, I love the thing on which its based, so, yeah, I was always primed to love it.

[zenith crown]

If you don't pick a '!' is it possible for it to show up later in that biome?

[tepid plover]

I dont think so

[zenith crown]

That was my thinking also. ='[

[tepid plover]

Thats a one time thing

[zenith crown]

Hermes, ||Eurydice|| or a Chaos Gate. D=

[tepid plover]

Depends on your build

If you got good boons you want upgraded ||eurydice||

If not chaos

Hermes will most likely show again

[zenith crown]

I'm doing a cast build with Stygian soul so it's a chance to get an extra cast.

[tepid plover]

Then go chaos

Extra cast is nice in a cast build

[zenith crown]

Or cast damage also an option from Chaos.

[tepid plover]

Correct

[zenith crown]

The other one would be a gamble on getting my cast upgraded to heroic....

[tepid plover]

Chaos is also a gamble

You might not get the 2 you mentioned

[zenith crown]

I guess so..

[bold orchid]

Heya random question. If I set it to Heat 20, but im naturally on heat 2, do I get boss rewards for heat 2 when I win? And so forth?

[north pier]

yep

you can beat the game over and over at heat 10 and you'll get rewards sequentially for 1 through 10

[ebon basin]

Hermes side hustle heroic

19 gold per room

Im gonna be rich

Only chamber 17

[north pier]

wait till you get to styx

[frail grove]

I want to ask a question, but it involves a (minor) spoiler. How should I go about it? It's short.

[north pier]

| | then | | (no spaces) is spoiler, like this || spoiler||

[ebon basin]

^

[frail grove]

Okay. So I just ||gave ambrosia to Zeus, and literally nothing seemed to happen.|| Is that supposed to be it, or did I miss some item or event that comes from doing it?

[brisk trail]

Nope

[gusty slate]

You'll see a bond forged and ||a chibi on his keepsake||

[north pier]

||chibi portrait ||

[gusty slate]

So just dialogue and a cosmetic thing

[brisk trail]

That's all yea, except some will give you somethung special

[frail grove]

Gotcha. I didn't notice the ||chibi||.

[brisk trail]

Not the olympians tho

[ebon basin]

So like im not going a cast builf

But i could get 6 casts if i wanted to

Might just switch to one

[frail grove]

That's all yea, except some will give you somethung special
@brisk trail Yeah, I figured that out - just gave ||Megaera ambrosia.||

[ebon basin]

Never got this lucky

[frail grove]

That's what confused me, as I figured it meant something from everyone, but it's just a subset of the characters.

Thanks all!

[zenith crown]

How does hoarding slash work? Is it just base damage?

[tepid plover]

bonding with people does nothing other than giving you a sticker

or nvm i believe you need it for the ||epilogue||

[frail grove]

Okay. I'm fine with purely story driven stuff, I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything. It wouldn't have been the first time that I accidentally clicked through a message in a game or something.

[mortal isle]

Question, is there a benefit of raising the hearts for the olympians?

[frail grove]

At least now I know to ||save my nectar and ambrosia for the main side characters, and not waste them on the Olympians (other than to get their trinkets) until I've gotten all the stories from Dusa, Megaera, etc.||

[mortal isle]

👍

[north pier]

true pokemon masters spend ambrosia on the pokemon they like the most

[frail grove]

Yeah, it's purely pay for play here, baby. 🤣

[obtuse zephyr]

Just beat the run with ||Guan Yu|| and I really like it. I get why people wouldn't like it but I don't mind a slower, harder hitting play style

[ebon basin]

Yoooo

Im getting too lucky

I have artemis legendary 2 casts extra cast from chaos and the zues artemis duo boon

Rapid cast from hermes

And i dont even have a cast upgrade yet xd

[north pier]

inb4 ares cast

[ebon basin]

Wanna try attemis cast

Just for fun

See how good the crits are

[obtuse zephyr]

Her cast just seems boring

[ebon basin]

With 6 casts one garunteed to crit

Nope its underwhelming

Hope i can swap it for a heroic

[north pier]

it's ok

largely it's better for clearing waves

or supplementing crit bonuses

[tepid plover]

With 6 casts one garunteed to crit
nothing is guaranteed to crit unless it has 100%

[opaque nexus]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/392070250511728653/768593718121988106/unknown.png we beating odyssey

[tepid plover]

note people can play offline

[dapper mango]

well artemis cast can be good depending what you pair it with (weapon mirror etc) and if you see it as a chance to trigger effects on crit also, its good single target damage on cast.. depends what you have

i thought the boons that trigger when you take damage wouldn't be great, but then i realised they are nicely balanced when you also have good damage reduction and such : D balance is nice lot of choice can make use of anything it seems its great

[north pier]

nothing is more frustrating then getting offered an epic revenge boon

by revenge i mean effect when you take damage

[dapper mango]

but for example the doom revenge has higher damage and hits all foes around

[bright lance]

is revenge actually ever good
The only time i saw it do something cool was a revenge based build on youtube where they beat the final boss by sitting and doing nothing LOL

[opaque nexus]

creeper aw man

[dapper mango]

if you have a lot of damage reduce, you get hit for not much they all get doomed like that, can hurt them fast and help recover more

[opaque nexus]

is revenge actually ever good
The only time i saw it do something cool was a revenge based build on youtube where they beat the final boss by sitting and doing nothing LOL
that was haelian probably

[dapper mango]

like some weak, bronze skin sturdy etc it works

oh also if you have any healing effects on hit etc

they're like a extra thing not a main thing tho its good

[north pier]

i mean in that case you should have picked another boon, just not taking very much damage is good for literally every build

[dapper mango]

yeah its just if you already good bunch of good stuff and damage reduce, then you get something like this it helps u win over easier after any hit

[north pier]

but effect on taking damage requires you to take damage and health is absolutely the most important resource in the game

[dapper mango]

and you can play riskier even

yeah have u had a lot of damage reduce? on some runs (prob rarely) you can have a lot

[north pier]

if you have a lot of damage reduce, you shouldn't just say "ah now i should take a ton of damage"

[dapper mango]

no you dont get hit on purpose

[north pier]

it's its own reward

[dapper mango]

its an added recover thing pretty much

getting in tough situations will make it less tough after a hit or two so then you get hit less also

[undone fossil]

Why do I have all of them but one

[north pier]

all of what

[pearl sparrow]

Am I just wasting ||my nectar on Bouldy||?

[delicate pilot]

Kinda? ||the only reward you'll ever get is the boon||

so yo guys what weapon should i go try to do a run with?

[quaint hatch]

Demeter fists

[pine magnet]

Just wanted to say that Gupp is the most beautiful thing that happened in my life for so long

[quaint hatch]

Dio knows

[pine magnet]

[brisk trail]

hey everyone! what in the world did I walk in on...

[quaint hatch]

Bouldy is love

[brisk trail]

I feel I should just vacate the premises and the let weird air out for a bit lol

[barren ocean]

gave my friend a try at Hades

He made it several rooms into Elysium on run 5

Hes betting me he can clear a run within 10

[quaint hatch]

Tf is weird about loving Bouldy

Get that cash

Got elysium first try
Then stuck there for like 24 runs

[tepid plover]

Wait what server has that gupp

[dense quarry]

Would there be any reason to not find a certain Olympian for a long time? I haven't seen Athena without the keepsake in a while

[tepid plover]

Rng

[dense quarry]

That's my life

[quaint hatch]

Random

[tepid plover]

[quaint hatch]

Hey that's my job

[tepid plover]

Well someone asked

[barren ocean]

[dense quarry]

[quaint hatch]

Just force her with keepsake

[tepid plover]

I want the gupp emote

I want more emotes

Mods pls

[barren ocean]

gupp?

OH

cute

[gusty slate]

is cute too... in a way

[ancient frost]

why isn't there any dusa card available on the steam marketplace? 🤔

[thick ledge]

lets be real, its cause dusa's priceless

[ancient frost]

no but srsly

damn..

[tepid plover]

Lol not one in the marketplace?

Well the marketplace is up for selling nvm

[queen wharf]

Is there an easy way to get the achievement for ||using a greater call against a God in their trial||

[distant lotus]

Uhh

[tepid plover]

Not really just be lucky

[distant lotus]

I guess ||hope for a call and also hope for a trial with the same god?||

Pretty much just luck, yeah

[tepid plover]

Yep

[queen wharf]

Lol

[distant lotus]

One way to kind of force it is to keep only 2 gods max until you get a trial in the run

[marsh rivet]

You may want to have JS3 CP2 on to make it more likely to get to Greater Call

[tepid plover]

Get call related boons so you charge it fast, so if it happens you dont want to clear the room before you cna charge it

Yep

[queen wharf]

You may want to have JS3 CP2 on to make it more likely to get to Greater Call
@marsh rivet The what now

[tepid plover]

Boons that increase your charge time

[marsh rivet]

Jury Summons 3 and Calisthenics Program 2

[tepid plover]

Like proud bearing

[marsh rivet]

More mobs + more health

[tepid plover]

Or make it harder yeah

[distant lotus]

JS3 sounds kind of horrible to be honest

[tepid plover]

But proud bearing, boiling point

[queen wharf]

Get call related boons so you charge it fast, so if it happens you dont want to clear the room before you cna charge it
@tepid plover Yeah I thought about that, good to keep in mind. Who has those types? Zeus, and...?

[tepid plover]

Theres a zeys one

[distant lotus]

Especially anywhere past Asphodel

[tepid plover]

Athena, poseidon and zeus

Athena has proud bearing, zeus idk the name and poseidon has boiling point

Also aether net from charons well can help

[marsh rivet]

Clouded Judgment

[queen wharf]

Aether Net! Definitely something I didn't think of

This is all a lot of help, thanks!

[marsh rivet]

Any source of damage ticks your God Gauge, so Hangover is probably the absolute easiest. Chiron hits a million times too, so you could try that.

[queen wharf]

Any of the spirit guys that respawn in Elysium seem easy to farm for God Gauge, right?

Just don't kill the eye

[marsh rivet]

You don't really get to decide where the trial is going to be though

[queen wharf]

Yeah but if it HAPPENS to be in Elysium lol

So much of this game is just being lucky things fall into place lol

[tepid plover]

Lolol

Facts

[chilly monolith]

Upgrading the rarity of your boon vs levling your boon? Is rarity always better?

[quaint hatch]

@queen wharf @tepid plover Not entirely

Rarity is always better

[chilly monolith]

Is there a stat listed anywhere that shows damage at each rarity/level upgrade?

[quaint hatch]

But you get to level way more than you get to upgrade your rarity

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1P6oZ6i8zmY6s7PM_AkX_g6bjZ601iP_xi9CxzEpujJ4/edit?usp=sharinghttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1P6oZ6i8zmY6s7PM_AkX_g6bjZ601iP_xi9CxzEpujJ4/edit?usp=sharing

[chilly monolith]

Wow thank you

[quaint hatch]

@queen wharf @tepid plover Not entirely
@quaint hatch but you know we discussed about that enough dio

[chilly monolith]

you should post that somewhere on a site lol

[quaint hatch]

Np

Not mine lol

Just got it on a note so I can post it

[tepid plover]

Wait what did I say

Oh

That was

A

Joke

[quaint hatch]

You forgot the

[tepid plover]

[quaint hatch]

Was so close to exploding

Yo is there a list for the meaning behind the titles that are written under victory once you finish a run?

[dense quarry]

it's related to what happened during your run

[tepid plover]

^

Wait dont tell me you dont know this

https://hades.gamepedia.com/Run_Clear_Messages

Heard someone say this outdated

They added some in 1.0

[true tulip]

i just got the theseus dialogue when he calls Zag out for hiding behind the pillars lmao

[tepid plover]

[true tulip]

you call that bravery?!?!?

[tepid plover]

Just sidestep the spear

[zenith adder]

sidestep to behind the pillar lol

[tepid plover]

Just move the pillar in front of you

[zenith adder]

300iq

[tepid plover]

Just throw the pillar at him

[zenith adder]

become the pillar

[tepid plover]

Become theseus

[north pier]

just tank the hit

can't die if you're already on your next run

[tepid plover]

Can't die if you haven't start the run

[north pier]

can't start a new run if you haven't died yet

we'll never get to heat 56 if we don't die first

[tepid plover]

We'll never get to theseus if we never play the game

[north pier]

extreme measures 5 requires you to refund the game and write a nasty steam review

[tepid plover]

Lmfaoooo

[brave arrow]

Is it just me, or is the witches encounter in Asphodel a bit too...much

[tepid plover]

Fight the developers in their ultimate form in a steam review

@brave arrow are you new?

Cause that room is pretty free once you get the hang of it

[distant lotus]

I still have a little trouble with it from time to time

Then again I don't usually opt for Athena

[tepid plover]

Well there are exceptions

[brave arrow]

I haven’t had a single Athena blessing until that very room. Second time going through it

[tepid plover]

But key to that room is being patient

[potent copper]

The witch room is rough if you have the more damage to traps/lava condition...and no reflect.

[tepid plover]

Mindlessly dashing around will get you killed

Be patient

Use stagger to your advantage

Or if you have athena, just deflect everything

[brave arrow]

I’ve been trying, it’s just been frustrating me because I keep dashing into lava somehow

[north pier]

it can be punishing with some weapons

blade for instance

[tepid plover]

Mindlessly dashing around will get you killed
Like I said

[north pier]

also note you can swing your weapon to destroy the shadow balls

[tepid plover]

^

[north pier]

also absolutely do not go to the center first

[brave arrow]

I’m not mindlessly dashing around, though

[tepid plover]

Then how are you ending in the lava

I do it too

[brave arrow]

I don’t know, but I swear I’m not mindlessly dashing around

[tepid plover]

Alright

[north pier]

note that your attacks and movement have buffers

you'll sometimes dash when you pressed it before, but you may have since changed your mind- since it's buffered, you'll dash anyway

accidentally buffering 2 dashes is usually how i end up dashing wrong

[brave arrow]

I will say my laptop isn’t the best, and I’m gonna switch over to the Switch once cross-platform saves are a thing

[north pier]

might try lowering the resolution, I doubt the switch will play at 1080

[tepid plover]

My laptop hella broke on me

I play on the lowest resolution

It doesnt look as bad one would think

And it runs perfect

Might want to try that

[brave arrow]

Will try

[north pier]

i have a #gaming laptop from 2012 that runs it at 1600x900, it still looks great

[vast quail]

Hello, don't you think the Freezing Vortex boon (Your Cast inflicts Chill, but is smaller and moves slower) is a terrible duo?

Because there is another boon that can do it better :
Glacial Glare: Your Cast fires longer and inflicts Chill.

[brave arrow]

My laptop is a general purpose one from 2015

I don’t know if I’m getting a new one anytime soon, so I fully intend to just swap over to the Switch because suddenly I’m experiencing ridiculous lag during fights
I suddenly just couldn’t put in any inputs, and it cost me a resurrect

In Tartarus, of all places!

[potent copper]

I have a "gaming laptop" with GTX 1050 that I have been using for around 3 years. It's slowly starting to die on me...at least the graphic card is.

IF I leave the game on for too long, Hades tends to get frame drops

[north pier]

yeah sometimes that happens when you alt tab, something happens with the vram budget

and it has to reload a bunch of stuff

[bright lance]

@vast quail Glacial Glare only works on demeter cast, while vortex boon only works with ares blade rift cast

[tepid plover]

Did you lower the resolution feenie?

[brave arrow]

Yup.

[north pier]

yeah when you change graphics settings, alt tab, it feels like it clears all the loaded animations and textures

so it has to reload for like every single attack

restart the game and it should run like butter

[vast quail]

@vast quail Glacial Glare only works on demeter cast, while vortex boon only works with ares blade rift cast
@bright lance Omg

[brave arrow]

One positive thing I do love about this game is how eager Olympus is to meet Zag
Warms my heart so much

[tepid plover]

Family is family

[north pier]

ohana

[tepid plover]

[brave arrow]

Also loving that LGBT acceptance from Aphrodite
As a bi gamer I love that so much

[austere jacinth]

Most of the characters in this game are bi. Not just Aphro.

[north pier]

kinda like actual greek myth

[tepid plover]

^

Like I said on the other channel, no one cared what sex to bang

They just wanted to smash

[north pier]

Just after some friction

[tepid plover]

[north pier]

still rolling laughing at zag over how ||dusa gave back all the ambrosia||

[austere jacinth]

||I let her keep it in my game. They were gifts. I can get more.||

[dense lagoon]

which aspect is best for bow

[tepid plover]

I needed it at the moment

Sorry dusa

Now im swimming in ambrosia

All bows are good

[dense lagoon]

hmm

guess ill go with the homing missile one

[flat vapor]

imo bow4

[tepid plover]

I like zags aspect

[austere jacinth]

I like that one too. Chiron has a lot of fans.

[tepid plover]

My friend loves hera

Theres one for everyone

[dry mauve]

all four bow aspects are great in their own way

but chiron is popular because its play pattern is very obvious

attack enemy once, spam special, dash out of the way of enemy attacks if they're trying to kill you

[plucky rampart]

So I'm using the shield, the beowulf aspect, I'm wondering, is there anyway to skip the attack when charging the bull rush?

I'm playing with a controller and attack is X and charging is holding X.

[flat vapor]

nope

you have to attack first before the rush comes through

[plucky rampart]

that's kinda dump

thx tho

it's my first game with beowulf. I used Aphrodite keepsake and got the unique cast on the first boon.

It's... something.

and I just got Demeter dash.

easy privileged status

[brazen stone]

Did Chiron get nerfed again in the last day or something?

[slender hazel]

Any idea of the cross save release?

[gusty slate]

It was changed I think

Oh in the last day? idk

[brazen stone]

Just had a run with +4 shots, crit special, bonus special dmg from ares, duo boon for extra damage on weak enemies....

Still felt really weak

Struggled to clear rooms or bosses

Died near the end 😦

[vernal void]

Today is my birthday

do any of you guys have experience with steam cards?

[dry mauve]

chiron got nerfed like last week or so

its still pretty good though

the really good players still have no issue playing chiron at 40+ heat so its definitely a viable weapon

[brazen stone]

I even had +30% special speed from Hermes

[tepid plover]

do any of you guys have experience with steam cards?
What exactly do you need

[brazen stone]

Just felt... slow and weak still

[vernal void]

@tepid plover I've been having problems where the codes straight up don't work

[north pier]

oh like gift cards? Take it up with steam support https://help.steampowered.com/en/

[vernal void]

already tried that

nothing worked

[north pier]

did you get into contact with them

[vernal void]

yeah

[north pier]

what did they say

[tepid plover]

Steam support isn't the best sadly

[vernal void]

it's been like 2 weeks but I remember them not caring that much

[north pier]

yeah not sure what to do about that, good luck. could try contacting them again

[vernal void]

after the gift card failed I even tried using a HADES steam key and that didn't work either

[north pier]

yeah contact support, there's really nothing to be done

[vernal void]

do you think there is a chance I might get a refund

[north pier]

depending on where you got the key it's hard to say

lots of scam sites

[vernal void]

nah i'm talking about the giftcard

i probably got scammed on the steamkey put i got the steam giftcard from walmart

[north pier]

retailers need to activate gift cards before they function, is it possible that didn't happen? could try taking it back to customer service there

[vernal void]

already tried that

[north pier]

then contact steam support again, there's really nothing to be done

here at least

[vernal void]

shoot

that's for trying to help though

[north pier]

ofc

good luck!

[vernal void]

yeah I wasted way too much money in the whole ordeal I'll probably wait on this game till it goes free on or on sale

[north pier]

what's the worst weapon for high heat runs, swords?

[flat vapor]

they're all capable

[north pier]

yeah but i'm assuming there's a reason 40+ trends towards bow

[flat vapor]

it's because two of the biggest 40+ players are bow mains lol

[north pier]

ahhhh

[flat vapor]

it's not that everyone is doing bow because bow is ultra amazing (though it is) it's because there's barely double digit players that are even doing extra high heat in the first place

[tepid plover]

Yeah I watch a lot of twitch, and I honestly have no clue who you're talking about

[north pier]

gotcha

[slender hazel]

dang i just want cross saves

[tepid plover]

Only twitch streamer i can mention from the top of my head right now is haelian

I also know taffy but he's quite new to the game

Oh vorime as well

[gleaming sparrow]

dang i just want cross saves
@slender hazel lmao same

Shouldn't be much longer I don't think

[tribal glade]

wriste also does top heat streams

ive been thinking about streaming Hades but i think there's an issue with my capture card that screws up the audio a bit

maybe i'll just buy Hades on steam lol

[tepid plover]

I honestly forget the game isn't only on steam

So I assume everyone is there

[tribal glade]

its great on switch

[tepid plover]

I bet

Id have it on switch if I had one

[dry mauve]

i have it on switch

its great

[tepid plover]

Man I really want a switch

[tribal glade]

its almost xmas time - present from you to you? 😛

[gusty slate]

It looks like hangover instances are independent of another

[tepid plover]

I need to gift myself some money and so I can buy me something for xmas

[gusty slate]

oh is it almost xmas time? oh boy it is

[wheat kayak]

Never knew that honestly - seems like ideally you don't run full Dio so you can proc PS to begin with but well today I learned

[gusty slate]

I had one on attack (6 tick) one on special (9 tick) Supposedly my special does 11 per tick, attack does 7. 1 of each does 18

Didn't make sense for each not to be treated as an instance, they just can't override if you have a full stack I think xD

Need to test if game prioritizes higher dmg stacks

[simple verge]

Hey is this game known to overright each other's save files if using family share?

because im pretty sure thats what happened to me and my husband

[gusty slate]

Same computer?

[simple verge]

same computer different accounts

[gusty slate]

Sounds plausible, unless you're running steam cloud saves

[tepid plover]

Id say this #h1-tech-support theres usually a dev there helping people

[gusty slate]

That's probably more beneficial than me trying to hypothesize, good call

[tepid plover]

Well it just looked more like a technical issue, you can still go and hypothesize over there

[gusty slate]

Nah I rolled ambiguity on

[tepid plover]

Bouldy dont believe on us

[gusty slate]

My track record just isn't good enough

[plucky rampart]

first run with beowulf = first win with beowulf

🥳

[gusty slate]

Grendel sends condolences to those slain

[tepid plover]

You mean hypnos?

[plucky rampart]

Also I just finished the prophecy that gives 15 titan bloods when finishing with each one of mirror perks!

[gusty slate]

A great prophecy

[plucky rampart]

I forgot it was supposed to be a prophecy run.

No I mean that one that requires finishing with each one of heat.

So now I have 17 titan bloods... I like to unlock aspects to the max. which fist and bow aspects should I unlock?

I only have Chiron.

[gusty slate]

Demeter people find amusing

I like Zag aspect dodge builds lul

[flat vapor]

for bow, hera works entirely well on unlock, and zag is relatively cheap

bow4 is probably the best bow, though

[plucky rampart]

From my first glance, the Demeter fist looks like straight trolling.

[flat vapor]

demfist is probably best fists rn

[lunar cypress]

It's awful until upgraded

[flat vapor]

(imo it's basically Fists+, at max)

[gusty slate]

I mean even at minimal upgrade, demeter still adds damage compared to base

[plucky rampart]

Does it?

it just says it gives special more hits

[gusty slate]

Ah sorry my wording was rough, the extra special hit is what I meant by damage

[plucky rampart]

But 12 strikes... ain't nobody got time for that

[gusty slate]

I guess, can get multiple by stacking enemies

Talos is fun

[plucky rampart]

oh, so striking 2 enemies in range counts as 2 strikes?

wait that changes everything.

[gusty slate]

I thought so

[plucky rampart]

😅 bruh you sure

[lunar cypress]

It does, it's great with longpunch

Or dash punch

[plucky rampart]

thanks. fist attack base damage is so low IMO.

I fear for my thumb

if I play it

[lunar cypress]

It is, it works great for the flat damage boons tho

..can't you hold the button down?

[plucky rampart]

...still makes my thumb sore.

speaking as someone who just finished Beowulf run.

[gusty slate]

I run athena attack sometimes on fist, deflect everything... even some melee attacks

[lunar cypress]

Also that works yes, pretty fun

[gusty slate]

I fully commit to zag dodge build on those runs for when it doesn't deflect

[plucky rampart]

I still need divine protection.

But... you don't need dodge if you don't get hit?

[gusty slate]

I get hit a lot,

[plucky rampart]

How does Demeter boons work with Demeter fist

I still need her legendary boons and some duo boons.

[gusty slate]

The extra hits on special stack, with Zeus special it gets iffy

[plucky rampart]

The general wackiness of her boons have prevented me from finishing her prophecy so far.

I legit LOL when I used her cast for the first time.

like wtf was that

How is that helpful grandma

[gusty slate]

A turret

Does some impressive dps and can upgrade further

but I'm lazy sometimes so I make crystal do work

[wheat kayak]

Don't diss Demeter cast

Esp. pommed

• chill on cast boon, forgot the name and Killing Freeze as well if you are going for a cast focused build

Also Demeter/Artemis duo

[gusty slate]

I was amused by Dem/Aphro duo

It's not as effective as art duo though lol

[wheat kayak]

On its own it's underwhelming but with some investment you can basically play Engineer and chill (heh) while your turrets I mean crystals melt everything

[amber rampart]

dem/arti duo is clutch tbh

[wheat kayak]

Or freeze everything

[amber rampart]

I did a crystal cast run the other day and made it to FB which I was not expecting, got REAL close to beating him too

(and I'll have to do another soon 'cause I still need that last demeter boon for prophecy)

[wheat kayak]

That said it's a little difficult to use on final boss since they (as in the gender neutral pronoun) move a bit too fast for a natural (no Art nor Aphro duo) crystal to catch up with

I had an Arthur run + Demeter cast but only pommed since I ended up getting Splitting Bolt.. with only Thunder Dash and other Zeus passives

[sterile token]

yo, is the demeter legendary supposed to work on ||Hades||?

[wheat kayak]

Yes

[sterile token]

It killed the champions of elysium, but REDACTED didn't die at 10%

[wheat kayak]

Not first phase

[sterile token]

ah, I see

thanks

[wheat kayak]

You shouldn't rely on it but it will shave off a good chunk of your time

If you are running TD

[sterile token]

obviously, yeah. I just randomly got it and was wondering why it didn't proc

btw are there any major differences between Hades Steam and Switch?

[wheat kayak]

||probably not the second phase either on EM4||

[sterile token]

I wanna get the switch version for my girlfriend, but don't know if it has god mode

[tepid plover]

It should have it

Afaik is the same game

[sterile token]

Thanks

[uneven spruce]

Any day now we'll get those cross saves

[remote forge]

Enjoying Hades so much I bought two copies for friends as birthday gifts.

$25 is a steal.

[exotic girder]

do any choices related to ambrosia and nectar lock you out of other ones?

[remote forge]

It's not quite at Hollow Knight levels of "wow I actually feel bad I only paid $15 for all of this content" levels but it's up there

@zealot#9647 as far as I know, no.

[lyric frost]

Did they change the animation for dag dying and falling into the pool of blood?

I beat hades and he just like did a back flip and went down with a peace sign

wish I took a vid

[silk remnant]

I think so? I saw a playthrough with a patch update and he did the back flip thing.

[narrow hemlock]

its in the most recent patch notes under miscellaneous

[lyric frost]

Ah must've missed that then, thanks guys

[silk remnant]

I wish I have the hand-eye coordination for this game. I rely on the playthroughs for now, though I'm interested to play it. I'm just a slow gamer haha

[wheat kayak]

There's God Mode to help you a bit

[cobalt stratus]

I really like the Art work would be really cool if you could Adjust the Landing/Starting Menu Background at will and switch between e.g. Hades and Charon etc. or have the Option to use one of the old Backgrounds at Random on Start-up

[gusty slate]

Would be nice yeah

[silk linden]

Idk where else to ask but do you guys know a place where I could put in suggestions for merch? I'd love to have enamel pins of the maxed heart portraits, or plushies of the companions, or the #1 shade fan's banner as a poster

[dusk mantle]

@remote forge agreed 100% about hollow knight and Hades 😁

Diamonds for unlocking sound tracks means I wait till end game ++ .

[wicked iron]

Nyx's dialogue gets so backed up, her favor is the last achievement I need and I suicided 30 runs and still there is other dialogue.

She should show up 100% of the time to reduce that issue at least a little bit.

[sterile token]

https://imgur.com/a/3GFChzN

Can I get an F for Splitting Bolt

That achievement better be worth it

[wicked iron]

you can sell, quit, reload and don't sell

[dusk mantle]

Purge thr dash?

[sterile token]

@wicked iron nooo, it's too late now haha

[tribal glade]

wait, what achievement?

(i play on switch)

[wicked iron]

purging legendary boon

[sterile token]

@tribal glade the achievement for purging a legendary boon

it's a steam thing

[tribal glade]

steam achievement, right?

gotcha

[sterile token]

ye

I want to 100% this game bad. Does the switch have achievements/trophies?

[tribal glade]

not afaik

[acoustic falcon]

Hey, sorry to bug anyone here, but does anyone know the EXACT triggers for the flashback in which Zagreus enters the admin chambers? Feel free to DM me if it's spoilery.

I just haven't gotten it in 20+ runs for some reason.

[wicked iron]

100% drives me mad, I have been killing myself for 2 hours and there iss till so much dialogue backed up on Nyx :"(

[sterile token]

100% drives me mad, I have been killing myself for 2 hours and there iss till so much dialogue backed up on Nyx :"(
@wicked iron That's rough buddy

[wicked iron]

I think I had 40 or 50 runs @acoustic falcon

[sterile token]

LOOL, nvm everyone, the fates(devs) gave me a new legendary boon

https://imgur.com/a/6z18DhS

that makes me purging the old one hurt A LOT less

[acoustic falcon]

@wicked iron But do you know what you did to trigger it?

Because I started playing before 1.0 so I'm worried my save file might be bugged.

[wicked iron]

I think it's just locked behind a dialogue with Nyx, but she has a dialogue for everything, so the further you get on your runs and the more you do, the later you unlock it.

[acoustic falcon]

For reference, a friend of mine got it in just like 12 runs.

OH, I'll just go suicide a bunch then.

[sterile token]

yeah just talk to nyx a lot

btw how do I unlock the hidden aspect of the railgun?

[wicked iron]

Yeah suiciding solves a lot of those not unlocking issues.

I forgot how, and it would be a spoiler, but you can find the answer on the wiki.

[tribal glade]

check out the pins in #h1-story-discussion @sterile token

[sterile token]

@tribal glade thanks! I have fulfilled the requirements, and spoken to the person multiple times. Guess I'll have to suicide

[tribal glade]

yeah just keep doing runs

[acoustic falcon]

@wicked iron I can't find anything useful on the wiki at all, tbj.

*tbh

[tribal glade]

i havent unlocked secret sword or secret gun and ive done over 50 runs lol

[wicked iron]

It just took me very long to unlock the first one, after that the other ones were relatively fast

I think it's a bit of a design flaw that the better you play the longer it takes you to unlock everything. I think they should let you have more dialogues at once if there is too many backed up.

Or at least have the main culprits show up 100% of the time.

[tribal glade]

i unlocked the spear somewhat early on (about expected time i think) and then there was a big delay for the others

i got shield + bow + fists all within about 1-2 runs of each other (like runs 35-40 or 40-45 or something)

but yeah, still waiting on sword and im gonna try to force the rail over the next few runs this weekend

[wheat kayak]

Yeah sometimes I get dialogue for something I completed maybe a dozen runs ago or something that should have been before the credits

It is how it is

That SGG managed to make unique dialogue for so many things is a hell of an achievement in itself

[dapper flower]

hey guys, does forging bonds with the gods, let's say athena affects the gameplay in anyway ?

[tribal glade]

@wheat kayak yeah i honestly dont mind the wait - im enjoying all the dialogue

not as far as im aware @dapper flower

[wheat kayak]

Forging bonds seems to not impact gameplay ja

[dapper flower]

ty!

[tough forge]

anyone know the requirements for the "grow closer with the olympians" quest? do I need to max all of them?

[tribal glade]

no, sorry - i dont know if i have that one yet?

[bright lance]

WOW artemis cast only build is so good on Poseidon Aspect
you dont even need to touch the weapon except for boss fights
Just get flurry cast, go to every single chaos gate to either get +1 cast or +cast dmg, Greater Recall from Hermes is even better
Get Mirage shot for the extra cast projectiles and you're set, "Hold Cast button to Win the Game"

[mortal isle]

||Question, how do get Euri and Ore back together?||

[unkempt sleet]

Max out both and Nyx, and get admin access. Then she should get you the contractor thing to do that.

[mortal isle]

Ah dang gotcha

So Max out all 3

[unkempt sleet]

Ye

[mortal isle]

Thanks! Gonna take awhile 😅

[unkempt sleet]

They all need to be at locked heart at least

[mortal isle]

Gotcha

[dusk mantle]

28% pierced butterfly. Literally harder than EM4. Sigh.

[fallen pond]

Go chiron

[dusk mantle]

I am using Chiron

[fallen pond]

I b2b both butterfly and plume yesterday with chiron

[dusk mantle]

I've even beaten EM4 but this is harder.

I guess that's why theirs an achievement for this but not EM4.

Sigh, have to redo anotehr run.

[fallen pond]

Dw you'll get it

As long as you're not melee and get fricked by the spawns

[dusk mantle]

I had it, when that spinning blade thing just flew out of nowhere. Oh well.

[tribal glade]

how many rooms for 28%? whats the base %?

[dusk mantle]

15 rooms for 30%.

I did 14. Now I had || Hades|| fight left. No freakign way I can do that without taking ahit.

No extra dashes either

[tribal glade]

whats the achievement? 30%?

[dusk mantle]

yeah

[tribal glade]

ouch, thats rough ><

good luck!

[fallen pond]

Done plume?

It's way easier imo

[dusk mantle]

https://imgur.com/a/iJTcVXL <-- There was my run xD

Yeah Plume I've done.

I did mess up 1 room in Tartaraus and 1 in Elysium (Witches got me). Will try again later.

[fallen pond]

I only have the 16 heat left, my record is 8, I almost got hades in a run where I used 8 dd in total

[dusk mantle]

8 DD? how?

[fallen pond]

I'll grind it out this afternoon

[dusk mantle]

I guess, die 3 times, then Patty gives you 3? that counts as 6

?

[fallen pond]

3 base, 3 from pat, 1 Athena and 1 from well

[dusk mantle]

Ah right

Im going 1 heat at a time to grind titan blood

To max out everything. I have like 2 aspects left to max out.

[fallen pond]

Yea that's what I've done as I've grinded the prophecies

Duo grinding was a B

[manic bobcat]

Mentioning of ||EM4|| might be spoiler here.

But yeah, fight is hard.

[grizzled bough]

ok

[dusk mantle]

@manic bobcat i did pput it in spoiler

like edit a second later than i posted

[manic bobcat]

Oh not you. Lockleaf was mentioning how difficult a certain fight is.

They removed it.

[dusk mantle]

oh

[carmine ravine]

i think he deleted it himself

[dusk mantle]

okies, sorry

anyway, im done trying pierced butterfly for now. this is way more frustrating than high heat.

[manic bobcat]

Pierced Butterfly would be much better if you can swap and retain the bonus.

[dusk mantle]

going to take a break from the game and go work on something. will be back when i feel like punishing myself sometime xD

it's fun though, and it's good that it's hard

but I feel there is a certain element of luck involved.

if you get the right boons it's day and night easier

[fallen pond]

Athena dash

[dusk mantle]

exactly.

[carmine ravine]

i personally like dio/demeter cast rather than hunting blades

[dreamy briar]

i personally like dio/demeter cast rather than hunting blades

[bright lance]

so how does Stygian Soul work? If it gets stuck in an enemy does it still regen after 3 seconds?

I've only used infernal so far so idk much about it
Are there any good builds for stygian soul specifically?

[slate jetty]

as soon as you fire your cast, it starts regenerating

[hidden quest]

Really need cross saves sooner than later. Double dipped to support the devs of this amazing game, but am really looking forward to continue on switch for those quick gamebursts

[clever island]

i got the plume and butterfly achievements done in 1 run each

[queen marsh]

dude....i need more achievements

49 ain't cutting it
