best boon from aries
#h1-discussion
cosmic stone
My favourite is the one that boosts specia, attack and I think cast damage
But there isn’t a “best boon”
As you can use stuff with like Chaos or Chiron and use special Ares and use the stacking Ares boon
Then you could say differently
lethal socket
i mean what do yuo recommend thank you though
lethal socket
yeah thats whta i got
kind bobcat
are you asking on advice for a current run? because knowing some of the other stuff you have will enable us to make recommendations
lethal socket
i died
i feel i shodnt of got aspect of hades on the spear
i hate that i cant regen my cast now
kind bobcat
i have to recommend serrated point as an upgrade on the spear
it's the first run/weapon i beat the game with
it allows your dash attack to hit 3 times for -25%(?) dash distance
so if you run a stacking build like for example dio, every dash strike applies it 3 times
kind bobcat
it comes from a daedelous hammer
lethal socket
im new to the game
lethal socket
oh ok thank you for advice
kind bobcat
yup!
dark scroll
You can easily try it all out. You'll die plenty of times!
kind bobcat
very true
alpine fulcrum
i almost feel like this game has too much dialogue
dark scroll
Delete that right now.
kind bobcat
ya delete that right now!
alpine fulcrum
plenty of it is good, but some of it gets kind of vague and fillery
kind bobcat
there are some i skip
for example, always skip the dialogue for the boss of tartarus
byeee
lethal socket
how do mi get stuff out of secret stash
kind bobcat
secret stash?
lethal socket
yeah
kind bobcat
where is that
lethal socket
keepsakes
dark scroll
Just keep playing. 🙂
lethal socket
ok
dark scroll
Thats all stuff that will show itself quite soon if you do some more runs.
Keep playing, talking, etc.
Do quests, contracts (if unlocked).
lethal socket
i only have 51 runs so'
and i have gotten to hades once
i ussaly die at where you have to pass charon
sage depot
That's ok, everyone has their own pace. There is still a lot of game and experience ahead of you 🙂
lethal socket
ok thank you imma head out
alpine fulcrum
lots of talk about how smoothly the house is running
running what, i'm the only one who actually does anything around here
sage depot
have you met Dusa? not sure how far into the game you are
alpine fulcrum
yeah she claims to be cleaning a lot, but how?
rich grotto
all the other characters do things while you're not around, obviously.
sage depot
😉
rich grotto
except hypnos. hypnos probably doesn't do anything when you're not around.
alpine fulcrum
||also the storyline with her getting fired felt like forced drama||
rich grotto
unless i mashed through the dialog, i don't think i saw that happen. ||i saw her get yelled at, and threatened with firing, but not fired.||
alpine fulcrum
you havent gotten there yet then, it goes on for a while and everyone makes a big deal about it
rich grotto
really! i'm post-epilogue and her whole situation seems to be stable.
alpine fulcrum
did you max out affection with her
rich grotto
yeah
alpine fulcrum
idk seems like triggering certain things in this game can be finicky
rich grotto
i don't think i ever actually got ||astarius' autograph either|| but i still ended up maxing out hypnos friendship.
cedar remnant
good boons for ||aspect of gilgamesh||?
quaint hatch
@cedar remnant ||Gilgamesh aphro ,artemis,dio, athena.
PS with 2 debuffs. and debuffs must be applyed befor you use miam, Heart rend,clean kill,rusthless reflex,Sweet Surrender
ideal setup :Athena attack,Aphro special,artemis cast|!infernal soul!arty attack, aphro special, cast unimportant but anything that lodges in enemies is fine. Lodge 1 in bosses and use the other 2 for lightning rods, dash unimportant but literally anything is good - aphro dash is nice QoL, zeus call||
cedar remnant
Thanks man
rancid ember
Hmm... What attack boon goes well with Achilles spear?
quaint hatch
You usually go for casts
rancid ember
True
quaint hatch
So aside casts other boons are only relevant for duos
cedar remnant
Achilles Spear? 😳
rancid ember
The spear has an aspect of Achilles
rancid ember
Hm... maybe Artemis is good to aim for? Her cast is pretty good, and lodges in the enemy
quaint hatch
What for?
quaint hatch
Hm... maybe Artemis is good to aim for? Her cast is pretty good, and lodges in t...
Yeo artemis for casts
The rest is duo related
You can theoretically also play achilles for attack but I find it just becomes a worse hades spear then
Since you need to refresh every 4 attacks instead of every 10 secs
rancid ember
Yeah, that's fair
kind bobcat
i tended to use the vanilla spear with the right hammer upgrades
im going to plug serrated point again because it's just that good
with dio attack so everything gets poisoned
kind bobcat
to the dash attack as well?
quaint hatch
Zag only has 25% right?
Should be
Maybe try in courtyard
Or I'll try it after my run is done
kind bobcat
ah i see
yeah so after the punishing sweep debuff attacks/specials get 25% more damage
i never got the hades aspect
quaint hatch
No hades give 150% at max
kind bobcat
oh gotcha, i miscopied
ya i suppose that would make the serrated point stronger
but with the right boon it can win a run by itself
cause you're just dash kiting and aoe damaging/slowing
quaint hatch
I like special more on hades but it's personal preference at this point obvs
kind bobcat
i mean we're comparing two completely different things here
and even so, all im saying is the serrated point is extremely strong
by itself or with stuff like what your recommending
quaint hatch
We all should know about the power of serrated ^^
cedar remnant
Explosive upper gets rid of maim?
quaint hatch
Why should it?
cedar remnant
it looks like it does
carmine ravine
dash upper, not just upper
carmine ravine
ye the hidden fist is like my most used so i tried that a lot and its fine
cedar remnant
Oh yeah it is there
quaint hatch
What a problem to have xD
sage depot
same
austere jacinth
I love the fists.
cedar remnant
More of a bow fan, myself
quaint hatch
No joke, with time I've come to like almost every aspect
stray dagger
I use the bow the most. I’m horrible with melee attacks and I’m trying to improve by practicing more with them to get titan blood.
cedar remnant
^^ big agree
quaint hatch
cedar remnant
I just have to work on my melee
I have to say, though, I am a big fan of ||arthur||, it's just a lot of fun
astral swift
I used melee weapons so much I don't know how to shoot from a range 
They're getting shot straight in the forehead
carmine ravine
yeah i use my bow like a melee
astral swift
stares at unused sketchbook
quaint hatch
*stares at unused sketchbook*
stares at stack of fully used up sketchbooks
cedar remnant
stares at warehouse of logs
astral swift
Aight time to put down da vidya game and go practice 
quaint hatch
Hell yeah
robust sundial
so, you just don't suck
if you sucked you wouldn't make it out of tartarus' first room
cedar remnant
I guess
robust sundial
you went as far as redacted, that's already very well. Don't put yourself down like that
cedar remnant
i was using the +20% damage from enemies heat as well
A little too confident, I thought ||gilgamesh|| would make it a lot easier. It didn't.
sage depot
Redacted isn't easy for everyone, n omatter the weapon lol
cedar remnant
I guess
I've beaten him 20 times though, it feels a bit disheartening to lose to him
and also break an 8 win streak
quaint hatch
Bound to happen with higher difficulty
sage depot
Completely understand, but it's bound to happen at some point 😛
brisk trail
overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer
quaint hatch
Eh more like fast and insidious
brisk trail
my first run with hidden spear was going very smooth until a sloppy final boss
cedar remnant
btw is ||charon fight|| random? I've had friends who've played a lot less than me get it and I haven't got it once in my 52 runs
brisk trail
ive had it appear once in 48 runs
carmine ravine
Redacted isn't easy for everyone, n omatter the weapon lol
i mean hes not the hardest boss
quaint hatch
Tiny Vermin
carmine ravine
not that either
sage depot
i mean hes not the hardest boss
I never said he was. Just that not everyone who plays this game consistently beats him
lethal socket
im at the hades fight right now
runic agate
Dont do as I did
lethal socket
im haveing an insane run with aspect of hades on the spear
ok lmao
last trime i fauht hades i didnt realize he had a second stage
runic agate
I'm so mad
lethal socket
si i kinda screwed up but i think i got it
runic agate
I literally killed hades' second phase at the same time I died
lethal socket
good luck on your next run
runic agate
I'm going to murder thins game with aspect of eris
lethal socket
ok lmao
alpine fulcrum
i have everyone maxed out on affection and all the pets maxed, guess i can trade ambrosia for blood now
not gonna stress about badges/themes
lethal socket
i fing died
runic agate
RIP
tepid plover
<:squirtnya:472124054644457472>
alpine fulcrum
feels like its really not easy to get extra casts
usually end up settling for +cast damage at chaos instead
starting to think the easiest thing with achilles spear might be to just go demeter cast
with the sticking casts you're just crossing your fingers for extra casts, rapid reload or both
quaint hatch
Achilles is for non sticking casts
But hunting blades and blizzard shot do a better job
Meme beam still fun tho
alpine fulcrum
i dont want to rely on getting a duo tho
quaint hatch
...
brisk trail
alpine fulcrum
it helps a ton but ive done it without it
brisk trail
who did you guys get?
alpine fulcrum
though i just beat ||em4|| for the first time and that would not work without demeter/artemis duo
quaint hatch
Unless you're playing on like 40+ you're "not relying on duos" mentality is holding you back build wise
Just EM4 ist still low heat my man
No cap
alpine fulcrum
idk sometimes i fish hard for a duo and just dont get it
quaint hatch
That's the nature of roguelites
There's bound to be trash runs lol
But usually keepsakes, mirror and rerolls makes it very likely
alpine fulcrum
no....im not truly skilled until i stop dying altogether
*dramatic anime pose*
pierced butterfly, high confidence, final destination
alpine fulcrum
actually i dont know how to select 'no keepsake'
lethal socket
zagy
alpine fulcrum
but then i dont know the distance rules
quaint hatch
Sniper shot is bad for the same reason
molten nymph
i remember trying it out for bow and noped out after tartarus
alpine fulcrum
i would probably use it with cast build or gun before bow
obviously having to charge ur shot is an issue there
molten nymph
alternatively, chiron keepsake but never take the well
quaint hatch
Every weapon is fun
alpine fulcrum
oh yeah chiron keepsake is probably better than i give it credit for
thats one way to have extra casts when you really need em
quaint hatch
Oh you mean charon
quaint hatch
Chiron is the bow aspect bois
molten nymph
eh yea
alpine fulcrum
making me mispell
molten nymph
damn you greek gods
alpine fulcrum
i also just recently ||beat charon|| for the first time
just gotta do it one more time
topaz epoch
Does a boon that is +attack also afffect dash attack?
quaint hatch
Usually
topaz epoch
kk ty
lament holly
i also just recently ||beat charon|| for the first time
:0 howww. i got the prompt to ||"borrow" from him a few runs ago but feared his paddle of op dmg||
granite ether
hammers that specify attack do not effect dash strikes at all
alpine fulcrum
||fight him in elysium or styx when your build is mostly done, and use a build where you can stay tf away from him, imo at least||
granite ether
you cannot ||fight Charon in styx||
alpine fulcrum
oh i thought i had heard otherwise my bad
lament holly
got it. i'll keep that in mind the next time i see him. thanks!
elysium would be the best then
||i got his first prompt in tartarus. rip||
quaint hatch
hammers that specify attack do not effect dash strikes at all
Nice to know
alpine fulcrum
i thought you knew everything rollingstone
lethal socket
recomended boon for aphrodite
alpine fulcrum
||cant imagine fighting him in tartarus, he has so much heckin hp||
quaint hatch
My knowledge is only near infinite
quiet gull
i thought you knew everything rollingstone
He does, he's just being polite
quaint hatch
quiet gull
Real talk, Acorn should be active for ||Charon and Tiny Vermin||
runic agate
|| just managed to do first phase of hades hitless||
runic agate
My dmg is freaking insane
flat vapor
hammers that specify attack do not effect dash strikes at all
for any weapon that's not bow and rail, anyways :V
runic agate
Thanks aspectnof eris :)
flat vapor
or piercing wave for sword, for some reason
granite ether
piercing wave is weird
quaint hatch
||finish story, max 6 gods, be disappointed||
quaint hatch
Nah get their sticker
quaint hatch
Except for ||demeter|| just up to ||locked heart|| there
quaint hatch
||how do you do the chibi then||
||max relationship||
quaint hatch
It's a one shot machine
green maple
any boons you would like to go with it?
quaint hatch
Explosive and twin shot hammer
green maple
arty?
quaint hatch
It's their duos
quaint hatch
There are easier options first
quaint hatch
Customs teaches you to plan your builds better though
green maple
consequences+EM?
quaint hatch
Em2, TD1, MM, BP1 are relatively free and fun imo
Also EM3 theseus is easier but asterius is harder
quaint hatch
Yep
quaint hatch
I even like BP2 but if you get the blue heart giving skulls or spear men the its hell
green maple
oh
quaint hatch
What was that again
quaint hatch
1 is fine tho
quaint hatch
Fast attack has less problems
Technically secret bow special is decent for clearing dc
green maple
I BEGAN WITH AN EPIC ARTY ATTACK BOON
green maple
I suggest just turning EM up to 2 instead
that makes the heat 3, where i only need 2
quaint hatch
Nah
green maple
frozen touch wont do anything if i dont have any chill
quaint hatch
You want heart rend and spread weak
green maple
wait then i roll demeter?
quaint hatch
As I said
Artemis attack, apjro flourish, zeus aid
green maple
so i need aphro's special?
quaint hatch
For heart rend
quaint hatch
On crit build artemis and aphrodite ate usually standard
Don't tell me ur using authority
Switch to persuasion
quaint hatch
It's way better since it gives you better control over getting the right boone
green maple
i got rare crop but thatll do nothing besides my arty attack boon
do i still go for it
quaint hatch
Rate crop is nice yeah
quaint hatch
Equipping the right gods keepsakes is more effective than authority
green maple
Equipping the right gods keepsakes is more effective than authority
i am currently having arty's keepsake
quaint hatch
So only two slots left
quaint hatch
And you have those slots already set
There's 4 slots
Hermes and chaos don't count
green maple
so i can only take 4 gods?
quaint hatch
The 4 gods you take will appear only
You can force more with keepsakes
But that will randomly kick one out
green maple
oh so i need zeus+aphro which makes it a 4
quaint hatch
Yep
green maple
or i also have chaos
green maple
i guess chaos in tautarus looks fine
quaint hatch
That's a good option yuh
U can also build rama for special but that a different build ofc
green maple
omg epic attack boon
quaint hatch
I thought u already had arty
green maple
like the
chaos's epic attack boon
i dont have explosive shot nor twin shot
do i roll the hammer
hmm
quaint hatch
And then their duo heart rend
quaint hatch
quaint hatch
Trials can't give duos
green maple
but their duo's wont appear
still isnt it worth taking
i really want PP or support fire
quaint hatch
What's the other option?
green maple
centaur
quaint hatch
Pp and support fire are nice ye
quaint hatch
Depends on what you feel you need more
green maple
oh
ill go boons then
btw which one is harder for the trial?
i know aphro's trial is hella difficult
but never tried arty's trial
pliant sparrow
artemis gets more disappointed in u
green maple
uh and
runic agate
|| does the area boon that makes you do more dmg after you kill something for that encounter apply to bosses EX. I kill a thing that hades spawns do I get the DMG up? ||
green maple
i got pp and life affirmation and im entering aphro's room
narrow hemlock
aphrodite trial is really only prickly is theres a lot going on and it gets harder to track the heart
pliant sparrow
yah u can dash thru the heart if u can see it
quiet gull
|| does the area boon that makes you do more dmg after you kill something for th...
Yes
quaint hatch
Only works for first attack tho
green maple
no duo oof
quaint hatch
It's super whack
green maple
do i get aphro dash
runic agate
|| HADES PREPARE TO SUFFER ||
quaint hatch
no duo oof
You can't get duo in trial
quiet gull
Yeah it's really not something that helps in bossfights
quaint hatch
Hunter dash is good for secret bow attack build
quaint hatch
Always nice
pliant sparrow
? @runic agate isnt that boon like for only a single attack/special?
quiet gull
You can't get duo in trial
You can, just not from both of those gods.... though maybe the first god cant offer ANY duos, the second one can I'm pretty sure
quaint hatch
I'd personally value hunter over aphro dash in this case
quaint hatch
You can, just not from both of those gods.... though maybe the first god cant of...
It's not possible to get duos from trials
That's the consensus rn
quaint hatch
Realistically speaking
runic agate
one of us would have gotten one if it was possible?
quaint hatch
Well as queen said you can technically get duos from gods that are not in the trial
But that's unlikely if not impossible
Since only those two will appear and you won't get their duos
green maple
do i keep my arty keepsake or do i go for zeus or aphro
quaint hatch
To make it clearer: If you had an artemis/aohro trial you could get a zeus/poseidon duo
But since they don't appear
pliant sparrow
keepsakes are one time only
green maple
but rarity
quaint hatch
Nope
green maple
so i guess ill go zeus?
quaint hatch
Keepsakes are for forcing the gods you need for a build
green maple
alright ill go zeus then
runic agate
leaves chat cuz fook everything
quaint hatch
Usually I'llgo gods keepsake>gods keepsake>purse/gods keepsake>acorn
quaint hatch
*leaves chat cuz fook everything*
Why u hate me
green maple
ohh
quaint hatch
green maple
anyways i go for it its time for asphodel
quaint hatch
But you don't have to be as build focused as me xD
quaint hatch
I'm jking m8
I still don't get it comment tho xD
green maple
But you don't have to be as build focused as me xD
i mean, i also feel so happy when i have a decent build and melt enemies down with 4 digit damages
quaint hatch
Follow the way of Bouldy then
runic agate
4% attack increase
quaint hatch
Ambiguity bonus
runic agate
da fuq?
runic agate
me who hasnt even unlocked being able to talk to bouldy yet I BET BOULDY IS THE BEST FOR BOONS!
quaint hatch
Secret best god xD
runic agate
: /
quaint hatch
@astral swift already finished an awesome art piece?
astral swift
Voldi made me draw shabby feet and now I wanna draw eyes but I boolied myself out of it cuz I can't draw faces
quaint hatch
Heart rend is more important
quaint hatch
The duo is key
green maple
me, goes for duo not knowing what it does
quaint hatch
It gives you +50% crit damage to weak enemies
runic agate
cyall
quaint hatch
See ya soon
astral swift
Boi boi
quaint hatch
Voldi made me draw shabby feet and now I wanna draw eyes but I boolied myself ou...
I don't believe you
Now create some beautiful eyes
green maple
no, i have the one that goes with the rarities
green maple
i can roll boon choices
quaint hatch
At very high heat the epic one is better
quaint hatch
But until then legendary/duo reigns supreme imo
Do you have persuasion or authority?
green maple
huh?
quaint hatch
Also I like duos and legendaries xDD
quaint hatch
I h8 my auto correct
quaint hatch
You can't roll hammers
quaint hatch
Only boons and pools
quaint hatch
Yeah for duo
quaint hatch
The duo mirror perk really makes a difference in getting those
Also the chaos rarity boon and other rarity increases help as well
In the end it's good to have most mirror options maxed
green maple
hermes or zeus
quaint hatch
Zeus ig
green maple
alright
winter harbor
I like the green mirror option for rerolling boons for help in getting certain boons
I mean, you already have keepsakes for getting certain gods
quaint hatch
That's what I meant by persuasion reigns supreme
Late 2 the party xD
Is a 2 person chat a party?
quaint hatch
Sure why not
quaint hatch
Nah m8 I'm always there to answer any questions
But I'm not the one pressing the buttons xD
winter harbor
Zeus is really good once you’ve heavily invested in him
Sea storm and cold fusion are great duos
quaint hatch
The most important nothing's are just artemis attack, aohro Flourish, heart rend (maybe zeus aid and smoldering air and hunter dash) and the rest is freeform
quaint hatch
If you get explosive and twin shot also it will be about 6 times that
quaint hatch
Since crit is multiplicative the 15%+ form clean kill is a lot mofe
alpine fulcrum
now hold on
winter harbor
Hammers can be run winning
green maple
alright then
alpine fulcrum
you hold on to god's keepsakes for more than one area? or you mean you switch to a different gods keepsake?
winter harbor
But they’re a little useless if you’re running a cast heavy build
quaint hatch
Both are valid choice's
alpine fulcrum
from the earlier part of the conversation
green maple
well i mean i have aphro's keepsakes so she is going to come up soon again
winter harbor
I switch keepsakes
quaint hatch
you hold on to god's keepsakes for more than one area? or you mean you switch to...
Switch always
alpine fulcrum
ok i thought so
winter harbor
It only guarantees you one boon
green maple
depends to me, i just simp for ares if i like the blade rift
quaint hatch
well i mean i have aphro's keepsakes so she is going to come up soon again
Is the 1 under the keepsake already gone?
green maple
i know its a bad move, but i simp
green maple
Is the 1 under the keepsake already gone?
nope
quaint hatch
Then it will still force
quiet gull
If you dont get the duo you need in Asphodel, sometimes you gotta keep the god keepsake on for Elysium to roll for that duo though
quaint hatch
For the rarity increase
alpine fulcrum
oh that just doesnt seem worth..
green maple
EXPLOSIVE SHOT
quaint hatch
I still prefer purse In most cases
green maple
YESSSSSSSS
alpine fulcrum
secret bow with zeus special is craaaazy
quaint hatch
Better not take damage than stand still for 5 secs
quaint hatch
Yeah thunder flourish build is fun
quiet gull
secret bow with zeus special is craaaazy
Nah, bolts have a cooldown, you're still only hitting one per enemy
Chill or Hangover are where it's at
quaint hatch
Nah, bolts have a cooldown, you're still only hitting one per enemy
It's still good on rama
green maple
OMG
quiet gull
It's okay on Rama
alpine fulcrum
omg spoiler
quiet gull
You're gonna make me blush 😊
winter harbor
Poseidon Zeus is where it’s at
green maple
hermes pleaaase give me a atk speed or reflex boon
quiet gull
Rama-lama-ding-dong
winter harbor
Easy privileged status from their duo
quaint hatch
You're gonna make me blush 😊
I grade blushes for spoiler tags
quaint hatch
What are the other options
quiet gull
Side hustle is usually the worst choice
green maple
hyper sprint auto reload
winter harbor
Side hustle can be very good but which biome are you in?
alpine fulcrum
just replace exagryph with 4th bow imo
quiet gull
Unless you REALLY want that Styx TB
quaint hatch
Hyper Sprint
winter harbor
Yeah, I would go with hyper sprint
alpine fulcrum
hyper sprint is so cool
quaint hatch
I mean side hustle is fine early on
green maple
i love it when i am getting taught on builds when its something like my 74th run
alpine fulcrum
its like nyoom
green maple
lmao
quaint hatch
If you don't get greatest reflex, hyper Sprint or aren't looking for hermes cast boons
winter harbor
Elysium strikes me as a little late for side hustle
quaint hatch
hyper sprint auto reload
Also attack speed from hermes makes you charge faster
quaint hatch
i love it when i am getting taught on builds when its something like my 74th run
Never too late
alpine fulcrum
attack/special speed feels like one of the weaker hermes choices a lot of the time but i might be wrong
green maple
yeah, thats why i need atk speed
quaint hatch
It is yeah
Depends on the aspect a lot
quiet gull
Also attack speed from hermes makes you charge faster
It doesnt though
green maple
UH
quaint hatch
Also on shield
green maple
I ENTERED THIS ZEUS+APHRO TRIAL
alpine fulcrum
attack speed on 4th sword is cool tho...
green maple
and i picked aphro idk what zeus does
quiet gull
It makes you start charging faster, but the charge itself is unchanged
quaint hatch
Yeah that's what I meant
winter harbor
Hermes can be hit or miss
green maple
guys hows zeus when hes angy
quaint hatch
He's ok
alpine fulcrum
even if it kinda goes against the idiom of 4th sword
quiet gull
You meant the opposite of what you wrote?
quaint hatch
Me too
quaint hatch
take the mirror option next time
alpine fulcrum
wait can you get the MEGA CHOP hammer on 4th sword
quiet gull
You cannot
alpine fulcrum
aww
quaint hatch
Also you wouldn't want to
alpine fulcrum
you dont know me
quiet gull
World Splitter doesnt multiply base damage, it just sets it to 90
green maple
OH
quiet gull
So it wouldnt do anything different on 4th sword
green maple
HI ||ASTERIUS||
alpine fulcrum
well it would have to be more damage obviously
green maple
time to finish you up and see my power
alpine fulcrum
like 500 at least
quaint hatch
It would have to have a not ass hitbox
quiet gull
But that's not what worldsplitter does
alpine fulcrum
it would be a modified version of the hammer..
to represent hte power..of 4th sword..
quiet gull
What's real cruel is you can still get Cursed Slash with 4th sword
quaint hatch
I mean world splitter is a fair name
Not hard to miss an entire globe
alpine fulcrum
its ok
quaint hatch
Even with such a small hitbox
alpine fulcrum
you got so much hp
green maple
THIS IS TOO STRONG
quaint hatch
You haven't even reached the peak
alpine fulcrum
yeah its not called shade splitter now is it
green maple
like god damn it
quaint hatch
I BROKE THE GAME
That's the feeling of builds
green maple
i still dont have the duo
alpine fulcrum
wait what are you using
green maple
ill take broken resolve
quiet gull
I BROKE THE GAME
Man, imagine what he'll feel like with cluster rocket crits
green maple
please give me the booooooonnnn
winter harbor
Yeah, duos are unreliable like that
quaint hatch
You are unreliable
alpine fulcrum
what i dont like about the gun is you either get rocket + cluster bomb/triple bomb, or ur sad that you didnt get that
like your run might still be ok
but youll be sad
green maple
"bow"
me: approaches and then slashes
cinder lichen
Lambent Plume + Hermes Dodge is just Payday dodge build
Might as well kick on “Left in the Cold”
alpine fulcrum
meanwhile over in enter the gungeon its like, oh did you get a bunch of totally busted guns/items? no? well hope you're godlike at the game lolol
quaint hatch
Don't give me flashbacks
I still shudder
Damn you ammoconda
Idk why but that one always tripped me
alpine fulcrum
i only successfully cleared that game once
quaint hatch
I never
alpine fulcrum
i mean the basic ending
alpine fulcrum
and it was purely due to getting lucky with guns
green maple
lets go charon give me something
quaint hatch
love
alpine fulcrum
i need to try blizzard shot again to see how good it really is when you dont get mirage shot and lots of casts to go with it
quaint hatch
i need to try blizzard shot again to see how good it really is when you dont get...
With achilles
chefs kiss
cinder lichen
I TWO SHOT AND MINOTAUR IS ALREADY AT P2
Elaborate
cinder lichen
The hell do you have?
green maple
now im just

but like, why not get mirage shot
green maple

alpine fulcrum
noxy post ur victory screen at the end
flat vapor
you're adjacent to it anyways
alpine fulcrum

green maple

pliant sparrow
Rng...?
alpine fulcrum

pliant sparrow
U faced him b4?
quaint hatch
You can't be serious
quaint hatch
I know it's a hard concept
But
How about both
green maple
LIKE WHY
cinder lichen
A splitting bolt
Memeing how Noxy complained about Splitting Bolt and then saying they instantly phase 2’d Asterius after
green maple
WHY UNHEALTHY FIXATION INSTEAD OF THE DUO
quaint hatch
Obviously
cinder lichen
Noxy
alpine fulcrum
boons are just a crutch, even ||hades|| says so
green maple
but i dont need any charm effects
cinder lichen
What Aphro boon
green maple

cinder lichen

quaint hatch
@alpine fulcrum you are just a crutch
pliant sparrow
45 heat no boon
pliant sparrow

quaint hatch
Charm is sick
green maple
looks cool
cinder lichen
Noxy Tell me right now what Aphro boons and weapon aspect do you have
alpine fulcrum
i watched a fresh start speedrun with the devs commentating, was pretty cool
green maple

quaint hatch
Basically a stun
Better the faster the attack
green maple
i have a bunch of aphro
quaint hatch
**Noxy Tell me right now what Aphro boons and weapon aspect do you have**

pliant sparrow
@alpine fulcrum even that oneused a duo boon
green maple

alpine fulcrum

green maple

cinder lichen
Aphro Attack? Special? Dash? Misc boons?
green maple
special and misc boons
quaint hatch
Aohro Flourish
pliant sparrow
The best speedruns are lucky
cinder lichen
And what weapon
alpine fulcrum
obviously if you're speedrunning a roguelike there's going to be a lot of runs that go in the trash because of rng
quaint hatch
Secret bow
cinder lichen
Oo. Hm...
quaint hatch
Bruh do you even read what I'm writing
green maple
life affirmation different league broken resolve empty inside
anyways
so i go charm...?
quaint hatch
Charm in secret special is fine
green maple
alright
cinder lichen
Was hoping for Charon, Charm is good on anything with rapid fire Aphro
cinder lichen
Bruh do you even read what I'm writing
Sorry I was tunneling Noxy’s messages
alpine fulcrum
it occurs to me that if you cant get duos on trials, that just makes them better for going for legendaries
quaint hatch
Why am I not the center of everyone's attention
green maple
come onnnnn this issssssss the last artyyyyy i haveeeee
no bouldy youre legit helping me out
cinder lichen
Flashback back to when I had Aphro Attack, Aphro Special, Relentless Volley, Chiron Aspect, and Unhealthy Fixation
“No, final bossman, sit down, I get to play.”
alpine fulcrum
the bouldy ambiguity buff actually buffs rollingstone's advice by 2% during that run
quaint hatch
Every ambiguity bonus actually buffs me
pliant sparrow
Bruh i had seastorm, poseidon legendary that gives more knockback effects, and +3 dash on a run today
But i got a 4 sack
Killed final boss in 40 secs i was so mad
Cluster rocket too
quaint hatch
All skill
No luck
Or the other way around?
alpine fulcrum
wait does poseidon lego do anything for bosses
cinder lichen
Uhhhhhwhat was his Legendary again?
quaint hatch
If you have stuff that triggers on knockback they will trigger twice
Double knockback
tepid plover
double the fun
quaint hatch
HEART RENNNNDDDD
Bless
pliant sparrow
I had that plus sea storm it was super op but styx rooms take forever
tepid plover
double
alpine fulcrum
what about the thing that does more damage to bosses when you use knockback abilities
cinder lichen
Oo
alpine fulcrum
does that synergize with the legendary somehow
quaint hatch
what about the thing that does more damage to bosses when you use knockback abil...
Twice
tepid plover
pliant sparrow
U can go from 200 base damage on hidden sword to 5k crits so
Quadruple isnt too much
tepid plover
*Damn, I need to do some more Poseidon runs.*
if fishing boon isnt on the victory screen i dont want to see it
pliant sparrow
Spear just go special crit lol
quaint hatch
I love em all
pliant sparrow
1k hits every few secs on a massive hithox
quaint hatch
Or serrated
cinder lichen
Yeah I get the impression you should focus on Special more with that one.
Or dash strikes
pliant sparrow
Also the hitbox is deceptively super small
If u see two enemies spaced out and aim in the middle of them, chances r you’ll hit both
tepid plover
i always called that one big chop
cinder lichen
[WORLD ZPLITTA]
cinder lichen
Bass boost
quaint hatch
The magikarp of hitboxes
tepid plover
it literally says big chop on the ability, so thats what i just called it
fierce vessel
hooray! won my 6th time
tepid plover
now go do it again
cinder lichen
lol
quaint hatch
If I could have a superpower it would be being able to bass boost things
quaint hatch
Oh no it's upside down
cinder lichen
There has to be an achievement for exhausting all dialogue, right?
cinder lichen
But imagine if there were
tepid plover
no
i like it they did it like that
in order to do that youd need to have access to all the game lines
and the only person with that power is tatz
not even the devs
green maple
@quaint hatch thank you so much for this crazy experience
quaint hatch
