woo. i just have two legendary fish left to get

#

and...one of them might be chaos yes....

proper light Nov 13, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

i wish i could just fish in this game

#

like fish is all i wanna dude

#

i was so hyped when i saw you could fish

dreamy briar Nov 13, 2020, 4:10 AM

#

New area but it's only fishing minigames

proper light Nov 13, 2020, 4:10 AM

#

I would be thriving

#

My crops grown

#

My skin clear

#

My loans payed

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 4:21 AM

#

omg the bow's Charged Volley is so good, even if you don't actually charge

#

...maybe especially if you don't actually charge? lol

#

Making the arrows fire closer together is by itself a huge improvement

blissful cosmos Nov 13, 2020, 4:25 AM

#

da

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:34 AM

#

chiron bow..?

red tiger Nov 13, 2020, 4:36 AM

#

Does spending a flaming skull and dying before getting to the end mean you don't get it back?

#

Or does the skull only get spent once you win with it?

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:36 AM

#

im pretty sure skull is heat level?

red tiger Nov 13, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

But I won twice so far, so shouldn't I have 2 skulls?

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

you change heat level in pact of punishment

#

before each run

red tiger Nov 13, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

It looks like I can only have a max of 1 heat level though

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

the max is like 60 if you play more

red tiger Nov 13, 2020, 4:38 AM

#

ok, so it just stays at 1 for a while regardless

#

watching streams of this game I thought the skull was equal to the number of times you reached the end

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

wait if you've only won twice so far how do you have infernal gates?

red tiger Nov 13, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

infernal gates?

#

Oh I mean the pact of punishment things

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

oh the skull things you can spend turn it up as high as u want

red tiger Nov 13, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

ah ok good

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:40 AM

#

it just resets first clear rewards

red tiger Nov 13, 2020, 4:40 AM

#

also, I've noticed I've really not been focusing on my fated list like at ALL lol

#

so I'm gonna start doin that some...there are a few where I'm only one off

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 4:46 AM

#

Heeelll yes I finally have maxed out Death Defiance <3

#

Is Stygian Soul or Infernal Soul better? I've been using Stygian because it sounds good, but 3 second regen isn't as fast as it sounds.

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:48 AM

#

depends on build

tiny grove Nov 13, 2020, 4:48 AM

#

they're both legit. In general I prefer Stygian for ranged and Infernal for melee but

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:48 AM

#

some builds like hera bow or hidden shield aspect do better with stygian i think

tiny grove Nov 13, 2020, 4:48 AM

#

one of the good things when you're low darkness

#

is that stygian works with 0 darkness invested

#

and infernal soul has no benefit unless you put darkness in

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:49 AM

#

stygian requires chaos gates for specialized cast builds tho for max dps

tiny grove Nov 13, 2020, 4:49 AM

#

Besides I would be cautious about using the word better in this game

#

not to say it doesn't exist but

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 4:50 AM

#

Hmm...

tiny grove Nov 13, 2020, 4:50 AM

#

90% of choices in this game are situationally dependent

#

and there's not many things in this game that are outright "bad"

blissful cosmos Nov 13, 2020, 4:50 AM

#

m

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:51 AM

#

stack builds on ||arthur aspect||?

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 4:51 AM

#

I'll just keep using Stygian for now since I haven't fully invested into Infernal. Eventually I'll probably learn better about switching between the two

#

Eventually I'll master this game or ~~die~~ get distracted trying

tiny grove Nov 13, 2020, 4:52 AM

#

the best part about Stygian is that you don't have to pick up your bloodstones

#

but it also means you have less frontloaded potential than infernal soul

#

and can't get arty/zeus duo

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 4:53 AM

#

Doesn't Hermes have a boon specifically for Stygian? Or does that just have a different effect for Infernal?

tiny grove Nov 13, 2020, 4:53 AM

#

Hermes has two alternate legendaries

#

for Stygian and Infernal

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 4:54 AM

#

Ah, neat

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:54 AM

#

does boiling blood stack per cast stuck?

tiny grove Nov 13, 2020, 4:55 AM

#

no

#

it's an on/off effect

delicate pilot Nov 13, 2020, 4:56 AM

#

wooooo

#

i only have ONE fish left

#

and its the chaos legendary...

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 4:56 AM

#

Hmm. Since I have maxed Death Defiance, I guess I should start working on getting lots of keys. Still need the 30 key tier in the mirror... Lot of keys away from it too lol

#

And then I'll probably start focusing gems for Superior Troves

#

Ugh, 47 escape attempts so far and I haven't even gotten past Theseus' first phase

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:57 AM

#

i mean tbh in the beginning stygian/infernal dont really matter unless you actively use cast boons

#

otherwise you just use them for boiling blood

tiny grove Nov 13, 2020, 4:58 AM

#

Ugh, 47 escape attempts so far and I haven't even gotten past Theseus' first phase
@rancid ember The last tier of mirror offers some of the strongest talents

#

they should make the game much easier

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 4:58 AM

#

Good to know!

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 4:58 AM

#

what r u struggling with theseus first phase?

#

the last tier of mirror takes a lot of darkness and might take a while

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:01 AM

#

I've only even reached him twice XD

#

I'm not sure what I'm struggling with specifically there

#

Most of my energy has been expended each time just getting through Asterius first

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 5:02 AM

#

oh thats good u can get past the hard part

#

the rest is just waiting for theseus to aim a spear at u

#

then u hide behind pillar

#

then he'll walk away with back turned to u for a few seconds

#

and he'll repeat this move indefinitely

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:02 AM

#

Aah

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 5:02 AM

#

until second phase, where you have to dodge some big aoe attacks while hiding behind a pillar

#

but otherwise same moveset

#

you can dash through pillars that makes it a bit easier

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:33 AM

Final Expense has always been a weird theme to me tbh

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 7:03 AM

I think it's supposed to be a breath of fresh air

#

no fighting, fun shopping sorta

dreamy briar Nov 13, 2020, 7:03 AM

Makes a good shop theme and the music can sometimes tilt you even more when you buy a boon and it just gives you garbage

Unless theres a spooky bag

dreamy briar Nov 13, 2020, 7:04 AM

All fun and games until you go afk and forget you were on lava in Asphodel

I hate armored thugs so much. It feels like their spawn value is SO LOW for an armored enemy

They're thugs

Easy to dodge

#

Unless you're doing that

scarlet elbow Nov 13, 2020, 7:07 AM

Of course they're easy without any armored perks, just annoying, especially in than rooms and when the game decides your GY should be awful

#

What’s a fight stick?

robust scaffold Nov 13, 2020, 7:32 AM

#

its a stick for fighting games

#

like those u see in arcades

next anchor Nov 13, 2020, 7:33 AM

#

Anyone else think biome progression would be an awesome addition?

cosmic stone Nov 13, 2020, 7:34 AM

#

Oh

#

And what do you mean?

next anchor Nov 13, 2020, 7:41 AM

#

Meaning the biome has advanced appearance and chance of change, like in A Robot Named Fight, killing all the bosses in the "city" biome unlocks the chance to encounter "The Black Forest" biome instead of city

#

Each biome in that game has at least 1 additional variant which comes with new enemies and bosses

#

The Binding of Isaac also does this

median cosmos Nov 13, 2020, 8:02 AM

#

does exclusive access work with ||pom blossom||?

sharp fossil Nov 13, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

does exclusive access work with pom blossom?
@median cosmos it has no interaction; exclusive access is the duo which makes all future boons rare at minimum

#

you probably mean sweet nectar, which increases the effects of poms by 1

#

sadly the answer is no; ||level upgrades from the pom blossom do not count as poms||

#

also i just realised that ||pom blossom|| is a spoiler in this channel, so you should probably tag it

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:36 AM

#

it took the acorn but I somehow managed to clear the last boss without taking a single damage

#

feels good

sharp fossil Nov 13, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

acorn wasted; should’ve taken chaos egg

#

nah but legit congrats

#

hit less boss best boss

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:02 AM

thank you, thank you

#

it was my first clear with hidden spear too

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

Nice

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

found the perfect way to deal with the downside of this weapon

#

just don't get hit

#

hypnos would be proud of me

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 9:04 AM

#

I still think downside is abit steep but its a fun weapon to use

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:04 AM

#

*spoil that, we can't talk about the content of those hidden aspects

#

imo, the main problem is that ||the spin is such a pain to use||

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 9:06 AM

#

I really wish there was a button you could assing to those 2nd attacks

#

The whole thing where you stab before charging just feel weird

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:06 AM

#

yeah

robust sundial Nov 13, 2020, 9:26 AM

#

Hypnos : "- Have you tried... Not getting hit by them ?"

did you unlock/try all aspects yet?

woeful olive Nov 13, 2020, 9:35 AM

#

i'm still realllly new, so there'll be more to test out later

#

rn i'm powering up vanilla sword to get max affinity with skelly

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:36 AM

#

for reference, hidden aspects have a different moveset/ play style from the og aspects

woeful olive Nov 13, 2020, 9:36 AM

#

yeah so i've heard

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:36 AM

#

so def worth a try, you might find one that will suit you like a glove

woeful olive Nov 13, 2020, 9:36 AM

#

of course, i just wanna max out my skelly affinity before i go for any more unlocks lol

#

it's already taken SO MUCH TIME

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:37 AM

#

haha

woeful olive Nov 13, 2020, 9:37 AM

#

i'm trying to reach max bouldy affinity too

#

*or sisyphus, kinda both at once

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:37 AM

#

sisyphus then, there is no affinity with bouldy

#

there is a meme buff tho

woeful olive Nov 13, 2020, 9:38 AM

#

please tell me the nectar i've been gifting bouldy isn't for naught

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:38 AM

#

well, you get a random minor buff for the duration of the run and the pride of believing in bouldy, with bouldy believing in you

woeful olive Nov 13, 2020, 9:38 AM

#

ohh

#

that's cute lol

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:39 AM

#

well, from an efficiency point of view it really is a waste of nectar unless you've maxed out everything else

woeful olive Nov 13, 2020, 9:40 AM

#

yeah lmao

#

i'll stop doing that

#

i wanna get max affinity with thanatos for his ridiculous companion too

I would still use it atm and for a while because it gives resources

robust scaffold Nov 13, 2020, 9:48 AM

use it 5 times

Is there any way to quit in the final area before the final fight? thought it was fine to just close the game, come back and start back at the house of hades...

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 11:07 AM

#

not sure why you want to quit, but you can select 'give up' in the pause menu to get back to the house, but you will lose whatever you got during the run since it will reload your save to before you started

wintry spindle Nov 13, 2020, 11:07 AM

#

it saves when you finish a region

#

I believe

hard pier Nov 13, 2020, 11:07 AM

#

Eris isn't really fun once you recognize that it's just a press attack to win button if built correctly

west grove Nov 13, 2020, 11:07 AM

I wanted to take a brief break before fighting the final boss

#

oh well, I'll just go get myself killed since I def don't want that same seed

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 11:08 AM

#

oh, you can just select quit instead of giving up iirc

west grove Nov 13, 2020, 11:08 AM

#

you can't there

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 11:08 AM

#

and you can close the game

#

just close the game

west grove Nov 13, 2020, 11:09 AM

#

that's what I said I did

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 11:09 AM

#

it's saved every room

west grove Nov 13, 2020, 11:09 AM

#

and it started me back at the house of hades instead of there

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 11:09 AM

#

that's weird

#

maybe the last room is an exception then

west grove Nov 13, 2020, 11:10 AM

#

I don't know why it would be really but I'll make note to just quit right before it if I think I need a break soon

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 11:10 AM

#

I will keep that in mind too

hard pier Nov 13, 2020, 11:10 AM

#

Just finish the run, it's usually safer

#

Or pause the game and tab out

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 11:10 AM

#

Try to quit in the chamber with the fountain and ||changing keepsakes||

#

That too

west grove Nov 13, 2020, 11:11 AM

#

yeh I'll keep that in mind

astral swift Nov 13, 2020, 11:11 AM

#

You can't quit when you're just before a boss chamber

#

You have to beat the boss

hard pier Nov 13, 2020, 11:12 AM

#

Ye, and if you select the quit button it usually asks if you're sure, it shows when it's last saved usually

#

The rooms in between the areas are safe enough

west grove Nov 13, 2020, 11:13 AM

#

yeh I've quit before midrun, but didn't know that was a before every boss thing

hard pier Nov 13, 2020, 11:14 AM

Quitting mid run usually knocks me out of the flow, if I get back in the next day I usually die right quick xD

||EM3 is pretty tough but I've gotten it down pretty well after not that many times. You just gotta get used to staying further away from Asterius than usual. Theseus isn't much harder||

there's a timer in the bottom left superimposed on the keepsake

not sure if there's a specific number of seconds or anything

sullen dagger Nov 13, 2020, 2:46 PM

It feels like more enemies = longer

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 2:46 PM

oh dear god it would be really nice if the movement speed chaos thing was only in combat

Hey folks. Has anyone got locked aspects on their weapons still and if you do, would you mind sending me a screenshot of the screen? (PM, as it appears this channel doesn't accept image upload)
Thanks!

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 2:58 PM

You post pics but only via link

#

Why?

lofty lodge Nov 13, 2020, 2:59 PM

I've got all mine unlocked and wanted to show an image to a friend, but not leak dat infos

robust scaffold Nov 13, 2020, 2:59 PM

why not just crop

o.o

lofty lodge Nov 13, 2020, 3:00 PM

Wanted to show the whole screen to point stuff out

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 3:00 PM

Start a new file

Take a screenshot

lofty lodge Nov 13, 2020, 3:00 PM

Aspect unlocks aren't available for a number of runs 😦

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 3:01 PM

Eh just farm 10 keys or so

lofty lodge Nov 13, 2020, 3:01 PM

Not being lazy, just thought if someone had the capacity to assist, I'd appreciate it

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 3:01 PM

#

Then give up runs

#

Ikik

robust scaffold Nov 13, 2020, 3:01 PM

u need more than 10 lol

gonna take a while to do that

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 3:01 PM

You'd be better of asking in #h1-for-new-players ig

lofty lodge Nov 13, 2020, 3:02 PM

Hmm, I feel like asking about aspects is kind of a spoiler

@shell crescent It means you didnt believe in Bouldy enough

@next anchor Tag pls

|| on both sides

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 4:44 PM

@next anchor it took me about 36 runs But
after run 6-7 i was already getting to styx though was still struggling

#

im a fast learner and i got used to the game fast but then thigns kept changing

earnest coral Nov 13, 2020, 4:51 PM

#

would loveto see Thanatos' Sythe as a weapon honestly

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

yeah

earnest coral Nov 13, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

and i honestly would love to have a new floor, game feels like it needs just one more floor somehow

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

It'd be like an extra floor

#

the one you don

#

't

#

have to do

earnest coral Nov 13, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

Hades honestly opens new doors to a whole franchise, now imagine the same concept but for different Mythologies

quiet gull Nov 13, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

SSG have mentioned that they like where clear times are at now and don't want to increase run play time

earnest coral Nov 13, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

like Norse one for expl

#

that's understandable

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 4:57 PM

Sythe, Norce... shadefear

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 4:59 PM

Norse?

@quiet gull makes sense

Hello. I never played rogue like game and I was a bit scared the few hours but I really fell in love for this game despite being a huge rpg player more than anything. The story is amazing and I just. Really love it. And it's amazing it have this nice little God mod like for newbie who just want to enjoy the story

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 4:59 PM

Glad ya like it

you're in for one hell of a ride

earnest coral Nov 13, 2020, 5:01 PM

am quite decent at it, tho never had the chance to use the words " Sythe " or " Norse " in my life, ever lol

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 5:01 PM

Btw it's scythe

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 5:02 PM

Nah no worries m8

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 5:02 PM

huh

#

It says here that the grim reaper uses the scythe to scare people to death

quaint hatch Nov 13, 2020, 5:02 PM

Whenever I read stuff like that I just shudder a bit xDD

#

Which is entirely my problem

#

Obvs

brisk trail Nov 13, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

Hades wasn't that bad

#

It was alright

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

What's required to meet Thanatos?

#

Wiki just says he shows up randomly during encounters

#

But I haven't seen him at all

brisk trail Nov 13, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

Yes

#

It's pretty much random

#

I've seen him appear mostly on the 2nd and 3rd acts

#

Ok buddy type it out

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

Hmm, okay... I guess I haven't had that many runs that have gone into Asphodel and Elysium yet. Maybe romancing him will be less horribly difficult than it seems lol

#

???

tired merlin Nov 13, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

the difficulty in romancing him is waiting for him to show up

brisk trail Nov 13, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

Yeah just keep playing and he will show up eventually

#

Also

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

I do hope it'll take less than 1,000 runs lol

brisk trail Nov 13, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

He will start appearing in the lobby sometimes

stable night Nov 13, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

isn't one of the triggers that you have to take damage on the run for him to appear?

brisk trail Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

So you can romance without finding him

stable night Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

so go get bruised up a little haha

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

Oh, good to know!

tired merlin Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

oh yeah you have to take at least one hit for him to show

brisk trail Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

What a weird requirement but ok

stable night Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

he didn't roll up until run #14 or so for me, but i've also heard people say they didn't get him until 40+ runs in

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

I've never not taken many, many hits (or even cleared Elysium) so, lol

tired merlin Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

well the premise is that he shows up to help

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

I'm at like. 50 runs and haven't gotten him

brisk trail Nov 13, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

That's so weird

#

How

tired merlin Nov 13, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

have you talked to everyone whenever possible?

stable night Nov 13, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

yeah, when you do meet him and get his keepsake, his trigger condition becomes more clear (:

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

I have definitely talked to everyone whenever possible

stable night Nov 13, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

how far have you gone in elysium?

#

you have to make it to the 3-4 chamber or so for his first appearance

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

I've made it to Theseus twice

quiet gull Nov 13, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

It's random, yeah. I had more than 20 runs and a few clears before he showed up

#

Though that was before the patch

stable night Nov 13, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

oh yeah... sounds like just bad RNG then

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

Is Cerberus technically a god 🤔

#

or just some random giant immortal dog that guards hell

#

with three heads

stable night Nov 13, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

i think the codex lists him under "others of note" rather than chthonic gods, so... guess not?

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

yeah but i dont mean ingame

#

cerberus isint a original character from the game
yaknow

like hades, zeus, all those kinda characters weren't created by this game

#

im tlaking about real life lore of the gods

stable night Nov 13, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

oh yeah of course, but it was a reasonable assumption that you were talking about hades!cerberus

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

Yeah. The game creates its own versions of those mythological characters. In the 'real life' lore, things are much messier.

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

Cerberus is best doggo, that's what he is

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

alot of the gods in this game are gods ive heard of and stuff, like i know of the boatman who deliveres souls to the underworld, the god of lightning, the god of the underworld, the god of the sea, etc

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

Cerberus, at the very least, is the spawn of a god (Typhon)

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

the only place ive ever heard of hermes is from terraria

theres an item called hermes boots what makes oyu run fast

#

i never thought that hermes was a name of someone

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

Man, hasn't even watched Disney's Hercules, what a shame

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

out of the 8 years ive played terraria

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

Hermes is an Olympian and the god of trade, heralds, speed etc. etc. He's also a psychopomp ❤️

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

actually

#

i kind of watched it

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

(of course, Disney's Hercules isn't even accurate to the lore lol )

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

waht

#

o

#

I kinda watched it tho because some of my friends like doing real time fandubbing and i participated

#

but as youd expect i only saw the video

#

no audio

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 5:57 PM

#

All of the characters in Hades are based upon myths from ancient Greece. As are most of the Aspects.

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 5:57 PM

#

mhm

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 6:01 PM

#

I'm kinda surprised you'd only ever heard of Hermes from Terraria before now. But then, having never played Terraria, I didn't know about the reference xDD

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 6:01 PM

#

well

#

i only heard the name

#

"hermes boots" is the item in terraria

#

and its practically the most essential item in the game besides wings

you cannot have a character without those boots or wings

#

it makes you run much faster

#

otherwise you are as slow as a goddamn snail and you will die

#

to the most simple creatures cause you are so slow, you cant even fight the easiest boss in the game without dying unless you use cheap tricks

#

and again for some reason i never even once thought that the boots were a reference to someone named hermes

#

i had no idea what "hermes" meant but i just took it as it is

#

never once did i think it was someones name

#

untill i found hermes in the game hades and for like a minute i was like " WHERE DID I HEAR THAT WORD/NAME FROM BEFORE "

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 6:10 PM

#

xDD. I think there are probably a lot of items in a lot of games that reference Hermes. Lots of winged boots.

#

Hermes is my fave Olympian in Hades, though Ares is pretty close. ^^

Pfff, niiice. I just beat Alecto without going below 82 HP at any point in the run so far. Aegis is super nice but I think I'm also getting better at the game :D

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

Yay! Progress. Well done.

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

Progress is lovely. It feels really good to keep getting better and making notable progress

#

This is not actually a feeling I generally experience with turn-based roguelikes xD

#

For some reason those always, uh. Seem to have progress be much much slower

#

I've never actually beaten a roguelike before, even though I've been playing off and on for 11ish years

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

I'm rather new to the genre, but Hades is just superb. I have no regrets. It definitely felt good to progress.

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 6:19 PM

Ive played enter the gungeon and the binding of issac so im not new to this genre but this game is unique it took me a while to get used to it

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 6:21 PM

I just dove straight in and didn't stop for like, 200 hours xDD

#

I love the characters and story, and the gameplay is very addictive.

rancid ember Nov 13, 2020, 7:03 PM

Hmm. I wonder if I'll regret getting food and a Zeus boon instead of a Daedalus hammer from Charon...

#

(I tend to babble incessantly about things on my mind when playing a game >>; Hopefully it's not too much bother)

#

...okay. I clearly don't actually know what I'm doing with the hydra.

#

It feels easy but I'm actually taking absurd amounts of damage

Only one of Cerberus' heads like pets

"If I only pet your head, you promise to not bite my arm off?"

#

YES I finally met Thanatos

#

I think the reason I hadn't met him is because I'd only been to Elysium a few times and you have to first encounter him there. The dialogue includes references to "exalted ones" which seems Elysium specific

I don't suppose we get to see the stats for which weapons/boons etc are best/most widely used etc

The rail is lovely for me~

ocean ice Nov 13, 2020, 8:14 PM

#

Its just like combat style, cause i really enjoy constantly dashing and smacking enemies

#

While they prefer ranged combat

spark gate Nov 13, 2020, 8:16 PM

#

I'm curious what people think, what's your preferred strategy for spending Titan Blood? Do you spread it out among various aspects you use, focus specifically on the aspects that get the most important bonuses, rush to unlock the hidden aspects?

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:16 PM

#

use an aspect to farm other aspects

ocean ice Nov 13, 2020, 8:16 PM

#

I still havent unlocked the hidden aspects

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:17 PM

#

the hidden aspects is mostly for more daring players imo

ocean ice Nov 13, 2020, 8:18 PM

#

Well ive "beaten" the main story (I think?) so now ill prob start on doing more of the optional stuff that i didnt finish

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:18 PM

u beaten the main story if u got ||the feast||

ocean ice Nov 13, 2020, 8:19 PM

#

Yeah, thats why I assumed/considered it as the end

spark gate Nov 13, 2020, 8:23 PM

#

So basically, you'd say to invest heavily in one, and then use that one to farm higher and higher difficulties for more blood?

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 8:25 PM

THATS ONLY MIDWAY?

#

damn

agile cargo Nov 13, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

oh dam didnt expect to see crabbar

#

also iirc its also incredibly hard for the devs to animate zag petting cerberus' other heads bc that would involve him being behind part of cerbs model

#

to ppl who were talking about why cerbs other heads cant be petted

deep lintel Nov 13, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

i still have no idea how to get the bouldy companion

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

he cant even reach them

#

do sisyphus prophecy @deep lintel

faint flume Nov 13, 2020, 8:32 PM

#

The real reason Zag only pets the one head is because Cerby only likes one head being petted

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:33 PM

#

*only that one cerby head likes to be petted

deep lintel Nov 13, 2020, 8:33 PM

#

it just says find a way to pardon him, ive given tons of nectar to him and his boulder

faint flume Nov 13, 2020, 8:33 PM

#

Nah, the way Zag refers to it is “You don’t like your other heads being petted, do you”

#

Implying all the heads are one thing rather than all separate entities on one body

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:34 PM

#

the vinyl color looks cool

austere jacinth Nov 13, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

That looks super cool. If I was into vinyl, I'd probably get it ^^

red tiger Nov 13, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

I wonder whats on the backs of the sleeves

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

how do ppl even play the vinyl in normal environments

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

When did hades release btw?
I never would of found this game if it didint blow up onto the no.1 spot in the nintendo switch eshops bestselling

#

usually when a game like this blows up and it isn't even on sale i usually buy it ( if its a indie game )

#

same happened with a game called carrion

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:49 PM

#

carrion is pretty short tho

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 8:49 PM

#

I still really enjoyed carrion

#

one of my favorite metroidvanias ( if its not a metroidvania then come fight me LetMeAtThem )

#

but anyways when did hades release roughly

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

2018/2019 iirc

#

fresh out of EA oven this year

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 8:51 PM

#

huh?

#

what about EA

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:51 PM

#

I don't even have a turntable and I'm tempted

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 8:54 PM

#

I used to have one of those things that can play vinyl's

pliant sparrow Nov 13, 2020, 8:56 PM

#

rip i accidentally sold an epic boon key to my build after elysium and had to get it back as a common :(

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 8:58 PM

#

have yall ever just...
used the basic sword with the Lv 5 thingy so that you have +25% movement speed, used the feather hermes gives you, get a epic boon of movement speed (+40% ) and then get 2 +20% from one of the small shop thingys

i was so fast my dash was worse than just walking

#

so in total i had roughly... +130% movement speed

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 8:59 PM

#

but walking dont give you iframes

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 8:59 PM

#

yea ik

#

but no need to dodge if you can run across the map before the enemy even has its attack out

#

just get good timing and reaction skills irl smh my head

carmine ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:00 PM

#

yes run across the map with a melee weapon

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 9:22 PM

tall heath Nov 13, 2020, 9:22 PM

#

yes two time already

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 9:23 PM

#

tall heath Nov 13, 2020, 9:23 PM

#

myb one time

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 9:23 PM

#

yeah I think thats the issue

#

coral prawn Nov 13, 2020, 9:23 PM

#

you leaving or reseting something before you saved

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 9:23 PM

tall heath Nov 13, 2020, 9:23 PM

#

no

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 9:23 PM

#

welp

#

guess you have to farm for more!

tall heath Nov 13, 2020, 9:25 PM

#

noice

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 9:25 PM

#

Its the house itself making you play the game more :)

tall heath Nov 13, 2020, 9:27 PM

#

not a problem i love this game

bronze ravine Nov 13, 2020, 9:42 PM

#

@tall heath if it's a bug maybe report it to #h1-tech-support , might avoid the problem to others

high island Nov 13, 2020, 9:43 PM

#

No, it doesn't count as a status curse.

#

There's a list here. https://hades.gamepedia.com/Status_effects#Status_Curses

Hades Wiki

Status effects

Status Effects are conditions which affect enemies or Zagreus. These often either debilitate enemies in some various way (debuffs), but can also provide positive benefits (buffs), in particular to Zagreus.

#

Doom works, yes.

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 9:50 PM

#

DOOOM

woeful olive Nov 13, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

doom is busted

#

had a sword run where neutral attack gave epic lv.3 doom with the stack boon, the Athena/Ares duo boon, and reflect on my special

hushed lintel Nov 13, 2020, 10:09 PM

You know when you pick up a daedalus hammer that just bouldy makes you regret da run

#

All for the prophecy bouldy

hushed lintel Nov 13, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

relatable and sad

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

Thats why you dont do heat when going for prophecies

vague viper Nov 13, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

i have no idea what weapon unlocks to prioritize now

hushed lintel Nov 13, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

Thats why you dont do heat when going for prophecies
@stone pebble how do you make it so you get prohecies??

#

its random

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

wait what

hushed lintel Nov 13, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

?

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

like going for specific prophecies

hushed lintel Nov 13, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

ye

#

how you make that happen

vague viper Nov 13, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

like is chaos shield annoying? i dont really bull rush

#

normally

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

if you dont bull rush, you arent blocking, the main purpose of the shield

vague viper Nov 13, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

yea i dont rly like the shield. im not in the habit of standing still to block as opposed to moving out of the way

stone pebble Nov 13, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

the shield blocks everything

astral swift Nov 13, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

If I could tell past me that I'd slowly fall in love with Stygius, I think they'd be shocked thanthink

delicate pilot Nov 13, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

when it says I have to ||beat Charon twice in a row|| is that twice without skipping a chance or twice without dying to them

midnight sigil Nov 13, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

This is the first time Hades say "Well done boy" to me and I'm crying T^T I love papa Hades so much zagluv

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

I do really like the way their relationship progress

hushed lintel Nov 13, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

is good

dusky estuary Nov 13, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

Might want to spoiler tag that.

sullen dagger Nov 13, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

Without dying I'm pretty sure

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

i don't bull rush with the shield, i just keep swinging lol

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

i feel like that is abit extream to call a spoiler but to each their own

hushed lintel Nov 13, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

same

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:30 PM

#

it takes abit getting used to the bullrush

#

same with the spin on the spear

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:30 PM

#

I used it all the time at first but now I'm just a button masher giving myself carpal tunnel

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:30 PM

#

heh

#

shield is by far my least liked weapon honestly

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

I liked it at first because of the block but yeah

#

It feels really slow to use the bullrush

cobalt prairie Nov 13, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

I like shield because of how satisfactory it is to block every single projectile of a boss

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

yeah they really should have had a button to use the 2ndary attacks for shield and spear

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

I also need to get in the habit of picking boons even if they aren't epic or above

#

I keep skipping attack boons and it ruins my runs

#

xD

dusky estuary Nov 13, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

Langosta! 👋

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

well its fine not to have one if thats not your focus

cobalt prairie Nov 13, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

Oh hi!

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:32 PM

#

I only use attack so, yeah it's a problem

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

yeah that might be a issue

dusky estuary Nov 13, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

Shield or fist attack with deflect is pretty funny.

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

once you have the mirror and rerolls tho its rather easy to get atleast rare

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

I love shield and fist with deflect

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

Fist and Rail are my faves

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

But I'm trying to stop using Athena so I get better

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

she is abit of a crutch

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

I have two rerolls but I'm trying to get more diamonds for side story progression

#

Otherwise I'd be going for darkness

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:35 PM

#

meh its not like you are in a rush

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:35 PM

#

Pre much

#

I'm swapping between farming resources and just pushing higher heat levels on all my weapons

#

Accidentally did less healing instead of enemies had more health last run. That was... an experience.

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:36 PM

#

thats pretty much the best way to do it id imagine i went the trade route cause i just wanted the titan bloods

#

but then when that became available there wasnt much to spend ambrosia on so

dry mauve Nov 13, 2020, 10:37 PM

#

giving more hp to enemies is one of the more-bad things to turn on imo

vague viper Nov 13, 2020, 10:37 PM

#

yea i didnt trade any ambrosia cuz ppl told me i should savce it

#

and im glad i did

dry mauve Nov 13, 2020, 10:37 PM

#

that option gives extra hp to bosses as well and most players wipe on bosses, so making those fights longer is bad

kindred granite Nov 13, 2020, 10:37 PM

#

Guys, I've à question, since I finish the story hades isn't in his chair anymore, and I apparently need to talk to him to unlock sisyphus

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:38 PM

#

yeah hp is honestly one of the rougher ones especially with EM

#

he will come back

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:38 PM

#

Which ones are the easy ones then?

kindred granite Nov 13, 2020, 10:38 PM

#

Alright, and once I talked to hades and meg about sisyphus, the thing that cost 10 diamonds will unlock automatically or I need to talk to Sissy once again?

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

well easiest one is prolly TD and the trap one

kindred granite Nov 13, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

And is dying quickly is a good idea to talk to hades?

dry mauve Nov 13, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

the trap option is awful

#

do not take it until you are at high heat and have no choice

#

its only 1 point but it can instantly kill your run in styx

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

I run into traps liked a bull to a red cape

#

Traps isn't an option for me

#

lol

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

well in that case avoid it 😛

dry mauve Nov 13, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

the trap one makes styx traps do 100+ damage, and the urns in the last fight do 150

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

Most of my runs damage is me going head first into a trap while I melt enemies

dry mauve Nov 13, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

if you even run into 1 on accident then you can kill an otherwise good run

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

it depends abit on weapons aswell but for fast hitting ones the immunity to the first hits one is not too bad

proven slate Nov 13, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

Oh right I forgot about that one lol

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

same with the extra enemy spawn and weapons with good aoe

dry mauve Nov 13, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

I would recommend:
Extreme Measures
Benefits Package
Middle Management
Tight Deadline

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

i hate benefits package

dry mauve Nov 13, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

EM4 and TD3 can be hard

#

but the other levels are generally fine to take

#

and BP/MM are relatively simple to take

woeful lotus Nov 13, 2020, 10:42 PM

#

EM is pretty good in general since you can get alot heat out of it by itself

cobalt haven Nov 13, 2020, 10:49 PM

#

yay i got a new record :D

barren ocean Nov 13, 2020, 10:50 PM

And is dying quickly is a good idea to talk to hades?
@kindred granite
Dying earlier can be a strat for unlocking dialogue, but rngggg

brisk trail Nov 14, 2020, 12:01 AM

#

Also dying early will only help if you've progressed enough to get through more dialogue, you might as well just keep doing runs and getting more stuffs

ornate summit Nov 14, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

I'm actually doing runs to farm Darkness and Gemstones

#

There's something funny about getting 600+ Darkness from the final boss.

#

Think that run alone got over a thousand Darkness in total.

brisk trail Nov 14, 2020, 12:10 AM

#

The darkness gems, and diamonds crunch is real

#

I need so many diamonds 😭

ornate summit Nov 14, 2020, 12:12 AM

#

I need Titan Blood but also Darkness

brisk trail Nov 14, 2020, 12:13 AM

#

I need both of those, but all the weapons I like are maxed already, but I keep leveling for the same reason I need 34 diamonds for music
