[manic bobcat]

just one, unfortunately

[lone kernel]

oh well

that woulda been fun

[green maple]

voidstones

or numbskulls with those ghost creating buffs

or the holy damn soul butterfly balls...

or the damn shields in elysium...

[rapid forum]

do you have some kind of trauma surrounding those foes?

[green maple]

what?

surrounding

those?

i never surround them bc im only one

numbskulls surround me tho

[rapid forum]

I meant as in they gave you trauma or something? lel

[green maple]

oh

shields yes

[rapid forum]

I can see butterfly balls and shields

[green maple]

it gave me trauma in the very game before

[nocturne copper]

the bow dudes are my trauma

[green maple]

bow dudes are okay but the shield dudes

they

they are basically

bow+triple shot+shield in front of their face+better damage

[nocturne copper]

minding my own business and get sniped from offscreen "WHAT IS HITTING ME"

[green maple]

oh that but

can relate

lmao

you cant even see the projectile

[lone kernel]

i mean theoretically every bad guy in elysium was a champion in their own times

[feral urchin]

except asterius

[rapid forum]

man, I wish I can give him ambrosia

[feral urchin]

he probably wouldn't accept it anyways since you're supposed to earn it in elysium

[nocturne copper]

yeah he has dialogue for that

[rapid forum]

oooo rly?

I may have stumbled that but forgot

[nocturne copper]

he says something along the lines of "i cant accept this, you earned that from us fair and square"

[winter harbor]

yeah, you can't actually offer it to him, zag just tries to in some dialogue

asterius best boss

[lone kernel]

facts. i appreciate the mutual respect with Asterius. wish he'd tell theseus to chill, the labyrinth was my favorite myth growing up but this game ruined theseus for me lol

[opaque nexus]

https://tiermaker.com/create/hades--all-daedalus-hammers-82372 hey I made this tier list thingy for every daedalus hammer for all your needs (spoilers for every hidden aspect btw)

[feral urchin]

damn I still need the last two for the gun and fists

[opaque nexus]

isn't atomsk like a dedede player in smash

[feral urchin]

no idea

don't care about competitive smash bros

[opaque nexus]

oh lol

[rancid ember]

Theseus will never chill because he's too busy being a professional entertainer

He's loud and obnoxious because it makes a good show for the audience in the arena

[feral urchin]

only a matter of time until he goes from the ring to being in countless comedic movies with kevin hart

[celest wind]

lol, Theseus

my friend loves the battle with him because she finds him "satisfyingly punchable"

XD

[brisk trail]

theseus is a pro wrestler confirmed

[latent python]

Theseus is very very punchable, confirmed.

[brisk trail]

I'll chew ass and kick gum, and I'm out of ass

[rain thorn]

[dawn fractal]

if we skip heats, do we automatically get the bounties of the lower heat?

[brisk trail]

only the bounty of the level that the pact says to go to

like if youve only cleared on 0 heat then do a 32 heat run you only get the rewards for 1 heat

[molten cairn]

Huh, cant actually post the done tier list image here

[manic bobcat]

paste to imgur

then post link here

[molten cairn]

oh yea

[brisk trail]

I can see why they wouldn't allow direct image uploads but its a lil annoying

[dawn fractal]

oh, you won't get the rewards for 1 heat to 31 heat?

even if u skip from 0 to 32?

damn

[molten cairn]

Casual tier list: https://i.imgur.com/cpHFysR.png

[manic bobcat]

no, you need to do at least 21 runs (0 - 21 heat or higher) to earn all the rewards.

[pliant sparrow]

the problem is that some aspects are godly for some weapons but trash for others

[dawn fractal]

ok thx

[ebon basin]

If only i knew them by picture

[brisk trail]

which god has the worst boons?

[ebon basin]

My 150 games has left me with much desired info

[molten cairn]

Yeah i did have to use the wiki as well

[brisk trail]

im thinking posiedon am i right?

[pliant sparrow]

poseidon has dash thats a staple of ranged weapons

[ebon basin]

Poseidon makes me depressedn

[brisk trail]

well i prefer athenas dash over that

[ebon basin]

Wasted god slot

[molten cairn]

I dont like poseidon rn, but then again i do want to give him more chances with knockback+rupture builds

[ebon basin]

Is usually how it feels

[pliant sparrow]

poseidon has seastorm

[brisk trail]

yeah true

[pliant sparrow]

poseidon dash has the most damage

[carmine ravine]

poseidon got loot buff, tidal dash, good call, exclusive access, and cast build

[ebon basin]

Just kinda sucks against bosses

[carmine ravine]

not rly

[ebon basin]

Best Poseidon weapon sheildM

?

Ill give him a try again ig

[carmine ravine]

theres poseidon sword

[ebon basin]

I just mean that synergizes with Poseidon boons

[trim otter]

weapons are useless when you go full poseidon

[molten cairn]

id rather use pos sword with artemis to make sure it lodges and get more cast buffs tho

[pliant sparrow]

eris is the meta rn, synergizes well with poseidon dash

[winter harbor]

You can just dash

[ebon basin]

Nvm

[carmine ravine]

just get full crit special with eris and add a chos buff on the special

ez

[trim otter]

knockback + rupture + wave when wallslam

and now you're asterius

[tepid compass]

i feel poseidons boons works great on biomes , but not that good against bosses

[brisk trail]

Poseidon call is my favorite

[molten cairn]

i guess thats pretty much how he is designed, without very specific boons atleast

getting more darkness and gems is nice tho

[carmine ravine]

poseidon call with smoldering air is ez win with bosses

exclusive access is a very great duo

[brisk trail]

I had it with proud bearing once

p fun

[carmine ravine]

poseidon/dem cast duo is also pretty good

[molten cairn]

Smoldering air is nice, but i think i prefer stacking up for greater calls

and zeus/aphro isnt my goto

[carmine ravine]

u missing out on zeus

[feral urchin]

aprhodite's call is the one boon from her I like

[molten cairn]

Nah, i go for them seperately, but i dont really do that combo

[carmine ravine]

u can clear out rooms AND bosses fast with smolering zeus

[brisk trail]

30% reduced damage can be a run saver

[junior fjord]

Does Magnetic cutter work om bosses??

[molten cairn]

Afaik it doesnt pull bosses

[carmine ravine]

yea i think so

[feral urchin]

doesn't pull them

[carmine ravine]

i mean the dmg

[molten cairn]

Nice for final boss ads tho

[junior fjord]

Just extra damage then??

[feral urchin]

still hurts them

yeah

[carmine ravine]

yea

[junior fjord]

Noice

[carmine ravine]

but at that point just use hidden fist

[junior fjord]

Explain

[brisk trail]

I am not a fan of hidden fist lol

would much rather use talos

[tepid compass]

does zagreus bow aspects give crit to special ?

i hate fists

[carmine ravine]

hidden fist extra mobility and heavy atk alows me to dish out consistent fat crits

and maim ofc

free 400 base dmg

[brisk trail]

any other fist aspect lets me take Zeus attack and win instantly

[molten cairn]

zag fist dodge is fun

I run ruthless reflex all the time anyways

[feral urchin]

zeus chain lightning is my favorite boon for attack

[carmine ravine]

why use zag fist when u can use plume instead

[brisk trail]

brings cosmic egg
doesn't get any chaos gates

[carmine ravine]

just buy some from wells

[brisk trail]

when u catch that voidskate just right

[molten cairn]

I mean, how fast is "complete encounters quickly" for plume? I never tried it much

[flat vapor]

you always get a gate with your egg if you save scum

[molten cairn]

And id probably need to stack it for two biomes or more

[carmine ravine]

theres a timer under plume when ur playing

[flat vapor]

there’s a timer underneath the keepsake’s icon for every encounter

[molten cairn]

Ah

[molten nymph]

teach me how to save scum the egg

[flat vapor]

changes to match the predicted length of the encounter

[carmine ravine]

for plume and butterfly, u just use them for the whole run

[flat vapor]

you go in, see if there’s a gate in the first room, go to the menu, hit Give Up, then select egg and go back in

[molten cairn]

I guess that may be something to try on my next run to have enough sustain to win again

[brisk trail]

Teseu and the minotaur keep beating my ass

[molten nymph]

damn i thought you can cheese it in asphodel onwards

those two are hella annoying, ye

[thorny crescent]

my favourite boss but ok

[trim otter]

my fav boss is asterius but def not theseus

[thorny crescent]

Idk man I like how he roasts you every time

Despite being on a losing streak of 30

[brisk trail]

hes satisfying to beat

[trim otter]

and i like the mutual respect between asterius and zag

that's why i love running into him as a miniboss

[feral urchin]

I like beating thesus with the fists so I can get the closest possible feeling to knocking his teeth out

[trim otter]

I DO THAT TOO

[thorny crescent]

I like beating Theseus with the spear so I can give him a taste of his own medicine

[molten cairn]

Heroes are a great fight once youve gotten used to it

I dab on Theseus with unblockable effects

[brisk trail]

lmao yeah

I can beat them without taking damage pretty consistently

[brisk trail]

with what

[molten nymph]

you cant

[brisk trail]

sord

i hate EM asterius

dude please stop ||beyblading||

lmao he's so scary

hate the shockwave after the jump attack too

[trim otter]

what's EM

extra mad?

[brisk trail]

extreme measures

[trim otter]

ah

[brisk trail]

extra mad also works

[novel wasp]

Extra Sauce

[feral urchin]

I always kill em asterius first, but when he's normal i do thesus first

[brisk trail]

extra spicy

[novel wasp]

Extrememe Meme

[trim otter]

i never think he's mad though

just... very focused at his job

[novel wasp]

Taco Bell

[brisk trail]

I go for asterius first no matter what

[feral urchin]

EM

Entitled
Minotaur

[brisk trail]

theseus doesnt bother me that much

I try to keep them on opposite ends of the arena

it'd be a pain to dodge both theseus's AOE and asterius

[novel wasp]

EMP activate

[brisk trail]

so i never theseus first

theseus phase 2 is much scarier than asterius phase 2

which is basically the same

I see FO2 asterius rushing at me in my dreams

[carmine ravine]

i always do theseus first

but i go aoe so they always in the same place

[feral urchin]

||EM hades but he summons EM thesus and asterius||

[brisk trail]

FO2 speeder chariots turn hades into a horror game

[winter harbor]

Theseus phase 2 is much worse if he calls on ||Demeter||

[feral urchin]

demeter means bye bye death defiance

[winter harbor]

Hard to dodge those vortexes, in his call and in the trial

[trim otter]

oh my god

[brisk trail]

I haven't had to deal with theseus phase 2 at all since I got ||mort|| lmao

[trim otter]

please tell me thats not tru

[feral urchin]

no

[molten cairn]

Extremerest measures

||Boss rush would be kinda cool, but definitely overboard||

[radiant estuary]

||EM Hades, but he summons more Hades||

[feral urchin]

||EM megaera but you actually fight tisiphone and alecto at the same time instead of them pitching in a little move here and there||

[molten cairn]

Oh god

[brisk trail]

when ur using Eris the game is basically a boss rush with a couple chambers between

ye eris be op

they nerfed it in test branch, didn't they?

[feral urchin]

eris is cool

I still liek the 4th bow aspect the most tho

[brisk trail]

it's the only one that's above the others imo

everything else seems pretty balanced

then eris

[feral urchin]

4th bow aspect with twin shot and perfect shot

||utterly destroyed EM hades today (which ws my first time beating him)||

[brisk trail]

poggers

[feral urchin]

still haven't doen it again tho

[radiant estuary]

@feral urchin Might want to spoiler that just to be safe

[feral urchin]

ok

[normal sonnet]

oops

[novel wasp]

who says the no-no word https://image.shutterstock.com/image-photo/old-woman-pistol-on-white-260nw-182174168.jpg

[normal sonnet]

Just wanted to give a shoutout to how totally rad the music is for this game

that electric bass play is such a mood

[feral urchin]

music alone is game of the year* worthy

[normal sonnet]

I said the no no word
I said the ef word before rad instead of totally. I'll mind my digitongue

[feral urchin]

*it has to go up against doom eternal

[novel wasp]

ngl i kinda wished among us 2 didnt get the goty

[feral urchin]

wh

what

[normal sonnet]

I haven't played doom eternal but if it's anything like Hades I approve

[feral urchin]

lets see uh

[brisk trail]

not really

[feral urchin]

you kill demons

you are in hell

[molten cairn]

youre handsome

[feral urchin]

gun

[normal sonnet]

I meant music-wise lmao

[feral urchin]

that's about it

[novel wasp]

kitchen gun

bang bang bang

[feral urchin]

oh

incredible guitar

[normal sonnet]

ah good good

[novel wasp]

tasty licc

[feral urchin]

doom eternal music > hades music

imo

nothing beats doom, music wise

[novel wasp]

there is 1

meme music

[feral urchin]

nah

[marble portal]

would there be new gods?

[novel wasp]

No

[normal sonnet]

I just often finding myself after a tight battle in Hades how it lulls down into just some chill bass plucking coming down from the higher intensity

enjoying* how

[marble portal]

Apollo or Venus or something

[feral urchin]

no

that's completely different i think

[brisk trail]

mmmmm the after clear bass riffs

doom fans starting their lawnmower

[feral urchin]

[molten cairn]

I really appreciate the hades soundtrack, especially after the noclip documentary

[marble portal]

They didnt have Hermos at the first place then they added it

So I am wondering if there wil be new gods

[tepid compass]

isn't cerberus supposed to guard the gate of hell ? why da fk is he sitting all the time at home ?

[marble portal]

I like the song < In the blood >

[brisk trail]

u will see

[tepid compass]

i saw already but still

[brisk trail]

idk I just like that I get to pet him

[molten cairn]

Seems hades can see whatever he needs to in the underworld and send the dog up when necessary

[feral urchin]

because nobody bothers entering hell that way anymore

[tepid compass]

that makes sense

[dreamy briar]

They all just get warped in now by Dad Magic

Cerb has no use anymore other than to mess with Zag via 4sacks

[feral urchin]

he hungers

[molten cairn]

No more heroes to sneak in

[feral urchin]

FOR THE ŚÆČK

[molten cairn]

1/3 good boy, 1/3 bad dog, 1/3 hungry

[dreamy briar]

3/3 good boy

:)

[feral urchin]

3/3 hongry

[molten cairn]

Well no you can only pet one head

[dreamy briar]

Don't we all wanna sit down for a sack full of rats

[feral urchin]

yes

[brisk trail]

found cerberus

Cerberus vanquished (his appetite)

[feral urchin]

tommy wiseau: hi doggies

[brisk trail]

my psionic warriors! seal this booboo bear within the earth! I command you!

[molten cairn]

Imagine if we had gotten a secret cerberus boss fight but hes still impervious and you need to slay vermin to lower his hunger bar

||Yes im aware of EM hades||

[feral urchin]

secret boss fight: hypnos
he does absolutely nothing but you can't hurt him, you have wait for him to wake up for the boss fight to end

[molten cairn]

"Oh hey, it says here you died of boredom! Strange..."

[feral urchin]

I wonder if there's dialogue for dying to every single enemy in the game

like after you die to all of them hypnos applauds you for being the best at dying

[novel wasp]

optional there is a spike trap at his side you can use to end this torment

except the fact it only deals 1 damage every time

even if trap heat activated

[molten cairn]

And if you still have death defiance zag says "Urgh, come on already!"

[feral urchin]

what if one time you went to bed and had a memory where you practiced with achilles and it was a bossfight

[molten cairn]

Meanwhile thanatos bossfight always ends in 5 sec

[novel wasp]

He throws you a toast

end of the line

"Breakfast approaches."

[feral urchin]

🍞

toast

[dreamy briar]

Chef bossfight: All of the food heals you but makes you incredibly bloated

[molten cairn]

Attack of the fish

[feral urchin]

wretched broker boss, if you lose he steals all of your stuff

and you have to buy it back :)

[tepid compass]

what is the best cast to go with hera ?

[dreamy briar]

Dio

[novel wasp]

and then iced tea

[molten nymph]

dusa boss fight
she has an exclamation mark
you need to not talk to her for 30 seconds

[dreamy briar]

If you get the Demeter/Dio and Zeus/Dio duos you're set

[molten cairn]

Nah if you throw a bloodstone at the broker you permanently lose it and get 1 gemstone in exchange

[feral urchin]

impossible bossfight

[novel wasp]

you have to give 10 ambrosia everytime you fight her

[feral urchin]

worth it

[novel wasp]

I mean everytime you hit her

[feral urchin]

oh

[novel wasp]

you have to give 10 ambrosia custody fee

[feral urchin]

would never hit dusa

that'd be mean

[molten cairn]

Dusa encounter but there are no enemies and you compete over breaking urns instead

[novel wasp]

and then dusa just laser

[feral urchin]

nyx boss fight: you die instantly

[molten cairn]

No mirror abilities, full darkness

[novel wasp]

chaos boss fight, you become one of the faces they have on their body

[feral urchin]

ngl I kinda thought chaos was gonna be a secret boss fight

not sure why tho

[molten cairn]

Luckily chaos would just be messing around

[novel wasp]

oh yeah the reward is that they will cast 6 random curse and you have to beat them throughout with it

if you win you get all of them

[molten cairn]

Not like hed have the power to destroy everything zagreus loves or something

[feral urchin]

wish you could walk around more in the chaos realm tbh

[molten cairn]

Oh yeah

[feral urchin]

places looks very cool

[novel wasp]

oh and they randomly spam cursed images of hades

thats the most powerful part

[feral urchin]

scary

[molten cairn]

An extra abyss biome couldve been very cool

[novel wasp]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/331824691620741130/699807403956240455/unknown.png

mmm

curse

[feral urchin]

I hate it

[novel wasp]

you love it

[feral urchin]

i hate it

:(

[novel wasp]

submit to your feelings

[feral urchin]

no

[molten cairn]

A chaos mode where every boon is a chaos boon and the effects are expanded to include stuff from other gods

[novel wasp]

there is no escape

[feral urchin]

secret boss fight: bouldy
you gotta whack him up the stairs without letting him fall down

PoV: you're sisphyus

good luck lol

[molten cairn]

ez game, just get poseidon

[novel wasp]

secret boss fight

you fight against skelly

[knotty aurora]

new mode: you are poseidon running up the river styx

[feral urchin]

SURFING MINIGAME

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[knotty aurora]

poseidon and zag on a surf board trying to escape

[novel wasp]

new mode you are ares doing a cooking show while blending random poor souls with your blade rift blender 3000

Will

It

Blend

[molten cairn]

Bloody Business

[feral urchin]

new mode you are cerberus and you have to eat the satyr sack in record time

[knotty aurora]

Dance dance revolution machine as decoration that you can actually play

[feral urchin]

world record: 00:03:02

[novel wasp]

new mode you are artemis playing wii sports

[feral urchin]

the hard part is opening the sack

cerberus has no thumbs

[novel wasp]

ez

just eat the sack together

[feral urchin]

that's unhealthy

sacks are hard to digest

it's a mistake cerberus tries not to make again

[robust sundial]

the sack is full of fibers, good for digestion

[feral urchin]

yeah but don't eat the sack itself

just the stuff inside

[brisk trail]

I died to ||Hades||, god I hate this game

[heavy fossil]

[feral urchin]

ron

[calm laurel]

Rondusa ship when?

[heavy fossil]

Dusa is babi

[brisk trail]

is it worth upgrading the gloves?

dusa doesn't even have a body, she can't get lewded... or, can she...?

[heavy fossil]

Personally, i love the 2nd aspect for the gloves

[brisk trail]

Don't challenge the r34 artists

[feral urchin]

don't underestimate the internet

[heavy fossil]

Don't lewd the babi

[feral urchin]

don't like the idea thpo

dusa is babi :(

[brisk trail]

I mean, if you like playing fists, go for it

I like Demeter a lot

Idk what weapon is better for me

they are all good in some aspects and bad in another

[feral urchin]

I like the bow the best

[heavy fossil]

Shield seems really popular. Not my cup of tea tho. I prefer thw bow and gloves

[feral urchin]

weapon tierlist imo:
S: Bow and Gun
A: Spear
B: Shield
C: Sword and Fists

guess I like range

[brisk trail]

they all gud

shield is nice, but the charged attack is too slow and throwing it doesn't give a lot of damage in the late

[winter harbor]

I like hidden shield the best I think

[radiant estuary]

I prefer Chaos aspect on it

[winter harbor]

But it’s also the only weapon that lets you block

[feral urchin]

I don't like the hidden shield at all

but maybe I just don;t know how to use it well

[radiant estuary]

You just need boons that add damage directly instead of percentages

[winter harbor]

Zag shield is also solid

[radiant estuary]

i.e. Zeus, Dionysus, Ares

[feral urchin]

hm

[winter harbor]

I don’t know how to position myself for chaos shield special

[brisk trail]

does it block?

[radiant estuary]

Yes

[feral urchin]

hidden bow aspect is def my favorite

[winter harbor]

My one win on it, I used a cast build

[radiant estuary]

Only when you're charging up a rush though

[winter harbor]

On the chaos aspect, I mean

[brisk trail]

the easiest clear would probably be to hide in a corner and just keep charging in and out

wouldn't be safe in tartaros tho

with all the lava around

[feral urchin]

*asphodel

[brisk trail]

yeah

[feral urchin]

also it's called magma when it's not underground

then again the whole game is underground....

[brisk trail]

fair enough

[feral urchin]

wait so is it magma or lava in asphodel???

this question is going to tear me apart

[brisk trail]

idk, I'll sleep

[thorny crescent]

Magma

[feral urchin]

well the characters say magma

[thorny crescent]

You’re technically underground

[feral urchin]

so i'll just go with that

[brisk trail]

magma sounds cooler

[feral urchin]

oh wait

it's magma when it's underground

not lava

nvm then

very simple

[brisk trail]

spicy water

[feral urchin]

banned

[remote anchor]

Charon: you're my best customer, Zagreus!

I met Greg Sestero once and bought his Book. He seems like a nice guy

[carmine ravine]

fists is actualy very good

[brave mica]

demeter fists!

or just max rank zag fists equip lambent plume go ham with hermes

and just hold down left click

[hearty sierra]

Wish there were a "Scroll of understanding" that can be purchased at the House Contractor's that costs 10 diamonds and is unlocked in the early game

When bought, nothing happens, but the narrator translates Charon to you

[real edge]

Yeah that'd be nice, i wonder what they say

[junior fjord]

I can't get Chaos to say the dialog for the Shields final aspects. 3 successful runs.

Any tips

[gaunt sorrel]

You already had the dialog for having the shield at all?

[dusky estuary]

I'm having the same problem with ||Zeus|| and ||Luci||. Don't know if it's RNG or other dialogs are taking priority.

[real edge]

Chaos is chaotic, pretty sure its just a matter of chance

[real edge]

pretty sure it is just chance of talking to them constantly, however ||equipping their trinkets|| can make it easier to proc their appearance

[junior fjord]

All aspects unlocked expect Shields last one.. Damn.

Spain without the P

[dusky estuary]

We'll get them eventually!

Guess we'll just have to endure more of 2020 goty.

[real edge]

Give it time and it will come eventually, try your hand at other aspects of the game and they will probably just appear naturally lmao

[green maple]

yeah, thats how i jumped into elysium boss room to ||meet asterius and get the fist hidden|| and theres this holy damn butterfly ball

[thorny crescent]

I only now noticed that Zeus is such a boomer in this game

“How do you do,young man?”

[faint flint]

wait

family fave

vs privileged

family fave is 20 percent per god?

[dusky estuary]

Oh Poseidon is boomer uncle too! Ngl I do like when he calls Zag Little Hades.

[last fern]

family fav is 5% per god

[green maple]

little hades feels cool

[last fern]

at 4 gods per run you're looking at 20% total

[junior fjord]

Does increasing Damage also increase bull rush damage

Increasing Attack damage i mean

[faint flume]

Poseidon is boomer but cool uncle

He tries so hard to be cool uncle

[exotic furnace]

@junior fjord bull rush is a special, so why would it?

[last fern]

bull rush is attack

hold attack button

[exotic furnace]

oh

someone here asked the same question, i guess the answer is yes :P https://www.reddit.com/r/HadesTheGame/comments/f1phcv/do_the_shields_bull_rush_and_the_spears_spin/

[steep tusk]

i’m halfway done with hades

I don’t want to be

[brisk trail]

i mean you could just keep going and going

[exotic furnace]

how do you know youre halfway done?

[thorny crescent]

Yeah tbh

[steep tusk]

5 clears

[thorny crescent]

PFFFF-

[steep tusk]

By done i mean “beat the game”

[thorny crescent]

Not even close

[brisk trail]

there's still an ||epilogue|| if you care about that

[exotic furnace]

well... youre in for a pleasant surprise :P

[thorny crescent]

10 clears isn’t even close to beating the game

[steep tusk]

Seeing the credits

[lone kernel]

I’m 35 clears in. Today the goal is to finally win with a crystal beam build

[steep tusk]

Like beating the main story

[thorny crescent]

go for Artemis or Aphrodite

And then get the duo

It shreds through everything

[exotic furnace]

what is a crystal beam?

[lone kernel]

Can they stack?

[exotic furnace]

new aspect of the rail?

[thorny crescent]

Demeter’s cast

[exotic furnace]

ohh

[lone kernel]

Makes a crystal that fires a laser

[thorny crescent]

The damage bonus can I’m pretty sure,not sure if the effects do

[steep tusk]

My build “stratgy” is just HE HO BIG NUMBERS DO BIG DAMAGE! DAMAGE GOOD!

[brisk trail]

beeg

[thorny crescent]

So just Artemis builds?

[steep tusk]

Anything with a high number basically

[lone kernel]

Lol I did Artemis with arthur aspect and shredded

[thorny crescent]

I did a build based on her call

Yes,her call

[exotic furnace]

yeah those crits do a lot of damage

[junior fjord]

Wait 10 clears isn't the end of the main story???

[thorny crescent]

I’m pretty sure I did every possible Artemis build by now

Because I’m an Artemis simp and I’m proud of it

[steep tusk]

Whats yall favorite weapon

[exotic furnace]

i seriously dont understand people who look everything up beforehand instead of just discovering as you go along

[brisk trail]

i guess it's the ending

but there's still an epilogue after it

[thorny crescent]

Sword or Gun or Bow

[steep tusk]

Im a dyonysus simp (99% chance i spelled that wrong)

[brisk trail]

i'm an arty and dio simp

[thorny crescent]

Yeah Dionysus is fun

[brisk trail]

let's gooo

them thighs

[steep tusk]

Bow,Gun,or sheild

[thorny crescent]

Dionysus always talks like he’s a character in a badly directed sitcom

oh come on Zag is that for me,really,oh I mean you shouldn’t have man

[steep tusk]

“Man oh Man Zag, when you get up here we will have the party of a lifetime man.”

[tribal birch]

Quick question, is anyone else having an issue with the keepsake achievement on steam not registering? I've got everything maxed out, is there something im missing?

[lone kernel]

Sea storm over here

[thorny crescent]

I love how every god treats Zag differently

Dionysus’s approach has to be my favourite by far

He’s just like “my man!”

[steep tusk]

Aphrodite: says a word
Me: GO TO HORNY JAIL B O N K

[lone kernel]

Is there any benefit to telling Hermès to stop talking

[thorny crescent]

I love how every god has a thematic call but Aphrodite and Artemis are just like “shoot ‘em outta the sky boys!”

Hades: “I’m not mad just diapointed…and mad”

[thorny crescent]

-Olympus,I accept this message!
-Ahoy little Hades! What does the word poggers mean?

[steep tusk]

Dusa is just Shenpai when she played Hades for the first time

[brisk trail]

he's hip with da kids

[steep tusk]

I wanted to post that image here so badly

[thorny crescent]

They really should have a channel for spicy Hades memes

[steep tusk]

That Hermes dialouge where he tells you the recipe was hilarous the first time

Hermes: god of ADHD

[opaque nexus]

dusa is the best fictional character

[steep tusk]

I want to headpat her so bad…she is best b a l l

[opaque nexus]

[steep tusk]

Pet the snake ball

has anyone seen Shenpai’s playthrough of Hades

it’s hilarious

My thoughts when i unlocked the Adament Rail for the first Time “Ah my favorite ancient Greek weapon a G U N

[coarse isle]

0 clears with my favorite weapon, 2 clears with every other 😦

[dense geyser]

i'm trying so hard to clear with guan yu spear. Its insane.

[real skiff]

uh I'm on 2 hearts with Orpheus, and I'm unable to gift him nectar for some reason

[dense geyser]

how many nectar do you have?

[woeful wigeon]

hades is technically a pacifism game since you don't really kill dead people

[real skiff]

3

I would think it's normal but it's been this way for a few runs now

[dense geyser]

yikes

file a bug i guess

[real skiff]

I have euridice maxed, it's kinda weird

[dense geyser]

oh wait

no yeah thats still weird

yeah file a bug

[real skiff]

uh, do you know what could've caused this?

[dense geyser]

i was thinking if it was becuase you already spoke to him or if orpheus is speaking to someone else

[real skiff]

also, which button was it for reports

[dense geyser]

because when they talk to each other you cant gift them

[real skiff]

yeah ik about that

he's singing

but not talking with anyone

[dense geyser]

yeah thats weird

idk i would go on the tech channel and ask

i came here because i wanted to make a suggestion for the game

but i see now there's no where to do it

rip

[real skiff]

oh

yeah don't think there is

[dense geyser]

@real skiff "Hades has a built-in bug reporting feature that can be accessed in-game using the F10 key. "

[real skiff]

yeah I saw it in key configs now

thanks

[dense geyser]

awesome

[real skiff]

thanks tho

[dense geyser]

eyy i hope they save your bro

[real skiff]

yeah, me too :(

being stuck on 2 hearts kinda sucks

[sinful nest]

ok question... has anyone else just never run into the flame wheels release? It's been the last thing in my customer loyalty prophecy for a very long time and I've been checking a lot

just never seems to come up in the well

[remote anchor]

Very rare

[latent python]

It is pretty rare

[sinful nest]

alright fair enough

[remote anchor]

Seen it twice in 30+ runs, Keep playing :)

[sinful nest]

good to know that i'm not crazy

[latent python]

I've seen it a small handful of times over 125 runs.

[sinful nest]

yeah i'm on run 70ish but i only really started looking for it about 20 runs ago

[rare obsidian]

Oh man another hard choice from chaos here, +85% gold or +60% special on Chiron bow

[brisk trail]

special ez

[rare obsidian]

Probs, I hate the pauper curse though

Especially since I'll be hitting hydra before it ends and I'll miss my end-of-act bonus

[brisk trail]

Wut?

Whats an end of act bonus?

[rare obsidian]

There's a mirror perk which gives you 15% of your current gold after you beat a boss

[brisk trail]

Uh huh ya ok dat

[rare obsidian]

Sorry, I play too much slay the spire, terms carry over

[brisk trail]

Ik

Uh...

[rare obsidian]

Pauper's flourish still is prolly better though, I went with thag

[brisk trail]

Sorry if I insult any of you but I dont think gold is even needed. I could just is a fountain at the end and the heal thing from the mirror.

[rare obsidian]

I like buying out charon in styx

Especially since I'm still grinding up aspects

[brisk trail]

HmmmmmmmMmmmmMmMMmMMMMMMNM

ok den

I never really thought of that

Thanks

shoutous side hustle

[rare obsidian]

Oh man just got concentrated volley and heart rend

On artemis special chiron bow

That'll be fun

[fathom mesa]

hey not sure if this is the right section but just picked up game a little over a week ago and loving it so far. is there a road map available or any list of potential things to be added/changed over next year?

[rare obsidian]

One shooting chariots over here

[opaque nexus]

@fathom mesa we don't know if any major changes are coming

SG said they will take a break

but don't hold your breath for more big updates

[fathom mesa]

ahh kk, so unlikely that any other changes besides potentially balance updates in the next year?

[opaque nexus]

yeah

dw this game has more than enough content

[thorny crescent]

Honestly would like more bosses/boss variations

Not that the other ones don’t work

It’s just that they kinda get repetitive after a while

[feral urchin]

ok, thesus but with a shield on his back too. you can only hit him with explosions or anything that isn't a direct attack

:)

[brisk trail]

theseus but now he's in a full-on mecha

autobots roll out

[feral urchin]

thesus but asterius is giving him a piggy back ride the whole fight

[rare obsidian]

"Have at you, foul demon!"

Instead of a spear throw, asterius just launches the dude

[brisk trail]

he actually does that

[heavy fossil]

Bouldy boss fight pls

[astral swift]

You mean "Bull Horn!"?

[junior fjord]

I think Chaos is just effing with me at this point. He keeps talking about Nyx. Say the line dammit pls

[steep tusk]

I hate Chaos his benfits don’t cut it for me

[low trail]

Wthas yalls favorite weapon

[junior fjord]

I just want the Final shield. I have all the other aspects for all weapons.. Just missing this one..been playing for around 5 hours now

[fathom mesa]

Only 5 hours and you have every aspect unlocked??

What sort of witchcraft is that

[stone pebble]

he probably means like

[versed zinc]

i cant

i cant go through to the hydra boss

😦

[stone pebble]

nevermind

[astral swift]

Adopted Grandparent slander

Heresy

[runic agate]

YES I WOULD LOVE THIS

[green maple]

gotta ask smth real qick

can ares & artemis duo go with ares & demeter duo?

[quiet gull]

No

[keen zinc]

I cant get over this soundtrack man

[astral swift]

He-he already does...

[runic agate]

What

when

how

where

asterius yeets theseus in a boss fight????

[astral swift]

Bull horn...

[runic agate]

What???

[astral swift]

If the pair get close to one another you'll see Asterius throw out his hand, and Thesius tails him, then he flings Thesius at you while Thesius shouts "Bull horn!"

[runic agate]

Da fuq

[astral swift]

no I don't know how to spell Theseus

[runic agate]

ive never seen that

[robust sundial]

"Charge: Asterius calls Theseus over, and then throws him at Zagreus, dealing 16 damage on impact. If Asterius has fallen, Theseus cannot use this ability."
https://hades.gamepedia.com/Theseus#Combat

[runic agate]

Thats hilarious

[astral swift]

It can be common to not see it if you're keeping Theseus at a distance while focusing on Asterius

[runic agate]

Theseus normally just does his own crap while asterius beats the heck outa me

[brisk trail]

oh damn, i didn't know the animation was that

i only notice the sound

and sudden theseus

[astral swift]

Ye the tell is Asterius no longer coming at you, with his arm out

[runic agate]

Next time i play im going to fish for this

[brisk trail]

theseus is on the other side of the arena while I'm whaling on asterius lmfao

[runic agate]

Does this have to be EM theseus?

[brisk trail]

nope

i actually don't think EM Theseus can do this ||because chariot||

[runic agate]

Ah ok

good

i can barely beat EM lernie

[quiet gull]

I mean, I think it can happen ||after he drops from the Chariot||

[runic agate]

so i cant imagine fighting EM3....

[quiet gull]

But Asterius is usually dead at that point

[brisk trail]

oh yeah, true

[runic agate]

ive had runs where ive kill theseus first by accident lmfao

Cya

gtg

[rare obsidian]

I don't think I've ever once seen that happen

I've seen asterius run into theseus and then a shockwave emerges

[astral swift]

:v no one got the lil heart attack when they're both offscreen and you're catching your breath, then suddenly Theseus invades your personal space I used to get that all the time until I played aggressively

[runic agate]

LMAO

[quiet gull]

I have 82 hours in Hades and havent seen it once

[astral swift]

Wot the hecc now I'm just concerned

[rare obsidian]

Have you seen that in 1.0? Is there a chance it was deprecated?

[brisk trail]

Asterius kneels down and signals at Theseus to do the specific move in the above discussion. That's a big telegraph.

[astral swift]

Am on switch and ye

It requires both Asterius and Theseus being almost booty-to-booty, commonly after Theseus does his spin attack

[green maple]

wait what

you guys havent seen bullhorn?

[quiet gull]

I mean, it might have happened early on when I didnt know what was going on, but I definitely dont recall seeing it

[heavy fossil]

I like to dash around the pillars so when Asterius stops chasing me for sometime, I know he's gonna use Bull Horn.

I don't think it only happens when they're near. I've seen Theseus be far from Asterius but he still used bull horn. Asterius does some pose when he's about to use it.

[green maple]

Yup

[steady crane]

Hello

[rare obsidian]

I normally try and focus fire down asterius, so maybe I just don't get far enough away for bull horn

[quiet gull]

Hey

[fossil delta]

do bonds do anything gameplay wise?

or are they just letting you know you maxed out a character's relationship

[winter harbor]

I think just the latter

[quiet gull]

Just a neat lil' icon on the keepsakes

[winter harbor]

And a short message on your bond

[knotty aurora]

finally caught my first legendary

[feral urchin]

you say that like it's a pokemon

[knotty aurora]

lol

[limber geyser]

any awesome deals on a controller that is good for hades on pc? feel free to DM me if so

[quiet gull]

How much is a 360 controller these days?

[dull rose]

ebay has wireless 360 controllers for $25 which is decent, i think mine was like $35 (but that was a couple years ago - it's still working though!)

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Wireless-Wired-Game-Controller-Gamepad-For-Microsoft-XBOX-360-PC-WIN-7-8-10/233744310445?hash=item366c3f20ad:g:oXAAAOSwz5tfhRGn

wired ones are only $16

[quiet gull]

I'd recommend a wired one

[lethal socket]

hello

[tepid plover]

what

what secret stash

[lethal socket]

from keepsakes

oh wait nvm

[tepid plover]

oh

secret stashes are locked keeepsajes

[quiet gull]

You do get keepsakes from Hermes and Chaos

You get a keepsake from every character you can give nectar to

[lethal socket]

yea i know

i was think of something diffrent

[broken marsh]

Hi

[tepid plover]

👋

[lethal socket]

hello

[limber geyser]

i think pluto refers to the locked items at the bottom of the keepsake screen ||chthonic companions||

[tepid plover]

oh

[lethal socket]

wait so do you get all keep sakes and then get secret stashes from ambrosia

[tepid plover]

yes and no

they are are from specific characters after you do specific stuff

[lethal socket]

oh ok thank you

[tepid plover]

but you do need the ambrosia

[lethal socket]

sorry for questons

[tepid plover]

not a problem

[lethal socket]

i am new i have only had the game for about a month

[tepid plover]

good luck

[lethal socket]

but i hjave beat it two times

but have a good dya

[fathom sinew]

hey guys isnt the fountain where u get cerberus food supposed to heal you fully?

[dim nest]

if you have the Dio boon then yeah

otherwise it's just like any other fountain

[fathom sinew]

ye the boon + different voicelines made me think it did

is there a way to do a boonless run? i just got screwed by the cerberus thing forcing me to pick hades

[dim nest]

it's doable if you avoid boon rooms as best as you can and purge whatever you did get at the end of each floor

[winter harbor]

Try running fated authority and use the shackles

Authority so you can try to reroll out of boon rooms when there’s no miniboss

[fathom sinew]

ye i was doing it and got screwed by rng

figured if i was gonna lvl up the shackle might as well

[winter harbor]

(Miniboss rooms always have boons)

[dim nest]

I'd recommend doing it after the test branch goes live lol

[fathom sinew]

what even are the test branches

[dim nest]

they test the updates on there first to get feedback from the playerbase

"- Fixed Final Boss not acknowledging if you can somehow get there without any Olympian Boons" is part of the current test which is why I recommended waiting

I'd personally be disappointed if I got all the way up there just for it to not be acknowledged

[fathom sinew]

havent actually beated him so wish me luck

[dim nest]

you gotta spoiler that

good luck though

[fathom sinew]

got my teeth kicked in

[dim nest]

the first clear is the hardest

[fathom sinew]

is there a way to obtain ambrosia and titan blod besides the trader, bosses and prophecies?

[dim nest]

the final shop

[winter harbor]

Fishing

[tacit ember]

relro

[winter harbor]

You still get the best returns on your fishing in the final area tho

[tacit ember]

what do u mean by final aria

styx or grees

[dim nest]

you still need to beat the final boss to get blood and ambrosia from fishies though

the latter

[winter harbor]

Yeah

[fathom sinew]

how long did it take u guys to clear ur fisrt run? im only strugling on the elysium and styxs bosses

[dim nest]

my first clear was on my 29th run

a friend got the game recently and got his first clear on his 21st run

[winter harbor]

44 runs, around 17 hours

I spent my first few runs focusing on farming darkness for the mirror and gemstones

[brisk trail]

my first clear was also on my 21st run

[fathom sinew]

did u have the mirror fully upgraded?

[brisk trail]

lemme see

[heavy fossil]

mine was on 19th run with my trusty bow. I was literally shaking at the end cause I almost died

[tacit ember]

ha imagin being good

[brisk trail]

beating the final boss for the first time is such a rush

[winter harbor]

I remember I had two DDs so no

[tacit ember]

i did on 50....

i know im so good

[winter harbor]

I immediately spent the darkness from the prophecy on the third

[lethal socket]

i did it on 32

[fathom sinew]

when u have 2 dds u can use them on the same fight?

[winter harbor]

Yeah

[fathom sinew]

thats busted

[limber geyser]

the beautiful thing is it doesn't matter how long it takes, or if you use god mode, you can get there eventually

[fathom sinew]

since last lvl is kinda easy

the rats one

[tacit ember]

big rat thic

ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc

[lethal socket]

dude vermin suck

[heavy fossil]

the last rooms in Styx dungeons can be really annoying 💀

do you guys thik devs play there own game

[fathom sinew]

where r u looking at that?

[tacit ember]

like would devs play there own game for enjoinment

[feral urchin]

idk if thats creepy or what

also dionisus

Anyone got any good ideas for Hades tat designs?

[lethal socket]

um

[brisk trail]

the logo thing with the laurels

or smth with olympian symbols idk

hey guys, is there any advice to fulfill hypnos hearts? I almost forged every boon but don't know what to do with Hypnos

[tacit ember]

are ur summons efected by attack buffs

like if u get ur cast stone thing stuck in the enimie

will ur summon do more damage?

[brisk trail]

How do you get the Ares quest?

It never triggered for me so I wonder what I'm missing

[tight needle]

Quick question. I'm currently on a 1 heat bar for sword, but last time i used it got 3 of the 4 rewards.
Do I HAVE to complete it entirely before i can move to 4? Kinda frustrating that i can't go to 2 now so i can get rewards for the first 3 bosses

[astral swift]

There are two conversations I believe you need to have, both involve ||Thanatos|| so if he has an exclamation point and he isn't talking about Hypnos, it means you need to speak to ||Than|| more

[fathom sinew]

ok i beated it im a big boy now

[astral swift]

You gotta beat all four bosses in one run in order to move to the next ||heat|| level, ye, but you get darkness out of it so it's technically a win-win

[peak wolf]

The "Q" attack weapons have like the volley for the bow, can you use that infinitely or?

[lethal socket]

i

bro what is the last keepsake

i am so confused

[stone pebble]

ah

you'll see

[lethal socket]

[gaunt schooner]

Hello all! I have kind of a weird question, but as an aspiring classicist I was really impressed with the level of research and attention that clearly went into Hades and I am dying to know if the dev team had a consulting classicist or not! Does anybody know by chance? 👀

[fathom sinew]

bro paradise is underground tf

[heavy fossil]

wut

[gaunt schooner]

I've also been living vicariously thru lets plays because my comp cant support the game itself :,/ solidarity 🤝

[carmine ravine]

my potato can un it, y dont u

[brisk trail]

is the hole where we lost a bit of our lives a shortcut?

[gaunt schooner]

idk man but last time i tried to run anything more strenuous than CSP my computer started* actively screaming at me so I just assume that its not gonna happen

[fathom sinew]

nope, is so u enter the chaos

only place u can get chaops boons and some fish

[carmine ravine]

chaos boon is more generalized buffs

@brisk trail i assume thats a Chromebook

[gaunt schooner]

Anyways not that y'all dont seem nice but I think I found the answer to my earlier question by looking thru the SGask channel so 👋 bye, stay safe out there everyone!

[carmine ravine]

my 4 yo dell ultrabook can run it cant see y it cant

idk man bur its i5 so

[fathom sinew]

u should just test if u can run it and if u cant just refund it on steam

[honest zephyr]

quick question..... on the door to the next room, in addition to the reward shown on it, sometimes there is a skull, what does that skull mean? for the longest time i assumed it meant like armoured monstered are 100% guaranteed, but I'm not sure..,

[heavy fossil]

mini boss

skull = mini boss

[honest zephyr]

ok

[carmine ravine]

not rly

it depends

nope@brisk trail

[honest zephyr]

no pvp or co op

100% solo

[brisk crescent]

you can do it!

[honest zephyr]

if u want a good roguelike ( this is a roguelite) try risk of rain 2 , on my steam i have 200 hours on it, so no affiliate, i just like the game... skillup has a review on it, and i watched that before buying it

and that is co-op and pvp

[carmine ravine]

if he cant even run hades, is dont think he can run that

[sharp jungle]

hey guys the last 2 weapon slots before starting a run are empty for me
I only see the sword,spear,shield and the bow
is that a bug? Do I have to unlock them later?
I'm missing the gauntlet and the gun thing

[honest zephyr]

i was mostly recommending it for the co-op and pvp ( pvp isn't native but you can find the active modded community on the official discord)

and total aside, i actually got recommended hades from the risk of rain community, so they talk about this game over there too

you get new weapons as you unlock old ones, or when u accumulate enough keys... its nothing fancy u need ( i remember having all my weapons before i beat the 2nd boss)

[sharp jungle]

I have all the weapons and lots of keys

they aren't even visible

[honest zephyr]

then just keep running man they will unlock eventually

[sharp jungle]

so it's not a bug ?

[honest zephyr]

i wouldnt jump to that conculsion yet

[winter harbor]

Yeah, there’s two more

Do more runs for the rest to show

[sharp jungle]

I thoguht it was weird that I could see all the others from the beggining and not the last two

[honest zephyr]

so guys, i finally got to the point where i can consistently beat stage 3 boss.... my problem is in the 3-4 times i've been up to stage 4 i cant make it past wave 1..... i take one door and i always end up dying to like the 4th encounter using that same door.... so like for example if i take the door with gold ||i clear the 1st room, 2nd 3rd room, and die on the 4th room typically before i can get the reward, never actually gotten the reward from these doors, there could be 10 fights in there for all i know before i get my reward|| im wondering if there if there is something i need to be building to help me here... someone's gonna ask what's killing me. and i thats hard to pin down, but its a combination of the insane amounts of acid that tend to cover the floor + the traps which go off constantly, and blow dart half-goat boys....

[real mango]

hello

[latent python]

Lots of practice. Learn the enemy movesets and how to time dodges, and pay attention to where you're moving to avoid traps. If you step on a button, don't move until it's done because it's too easy to move into the trap by mistake. Generally the miniboss rooms (with the little skulls) are easier than the standard ones.

[red raft]

I really want that server's avatar as a gif. anyone has it ?

[real skiff]

keep in mind you can heal the poison in those little pools, you should do it as soon as possible since it deals a huge amount of damage

[honest zephyr]

heal them how? the hermes dash?

[brisk trail]

press E on the glowing water sink things

it'll cure you of poison

[honest zephyr]

ok thnx i didnt know that

[manic bobcat]

cure, not heal

[honest zephyr]

i c

[hot flame]

ı just realised that ares impending doom is the sword of damocles😩

[brisk trail]

now you'll have a much easier time going through styx lol

[hot flame]

it took me 200 hours to realise this

also if poison really gives you that much trouble, equip spearpoint for that biome

[real skiff]

uh also I asked about this already, and filled in a report, but maybe now there's something who has an idea on what to do with the bug

basically I can't give nectar to orpheus

I'm stuck on 2 hearts, have nectar

and he's the only one I can't gift nectar to

[manic bobcat]

is there a lock?

[real skiff]

I can talk with him normally

no, I'm on 2 hearts

[manic bobcat]

don't quote me on this but have you met ||Eurydice||?

[real skiff]

yes, and maxed her relationship bar

[manic bobcat]

maybe that affects it somehow?

[real skiff]

huh maybe

[manic bobcat]

dang nvm then

[real skiff]

I'm like 90% sure it's a bug

was wondering if someone else had it and found a solution

for now I just have to wait and see if I get a response to my report

[fierce vessel]

are you trying to give all the nectar to him at one time?

[real skiff]

I haven't been able to gift him for multiple runs

[fierce vessel]

ah. was he there?

because sometimes he isn't

[real skiff]

yes ik

he's there, like

I can talk to him normally

and I can gift and talk to everyone else normally

only gifting him is locked for some reason

[fierce vessel]

huh, maybe you have to do somethings but idk

[honest zephyr]

well i mean if i had 80% god mode damage reduction and i get a like a 10% bronze skin from Athena and a bunch of revenge, cant i just make a revenge build where i can pretty much just stand there and tank everything and kill then with that?

[winter harbor]

You can do that even without god mode

[brisk trail]

I didn't know Hades ||had a second fase||

[winter harbor]

But yes

[honest zephyr]

i god pretty close to making one by chance, and it worked really well, i think i pick the right keepsakes and get some good rng i will try to make one,, that way i can finish wave stage 4-5 like a complete clown without memorizing all the attacks x D

[molten nymph]

you can make revenge build that kills the final boss without attacking without godmode

[honest zephyr]

ok imma look that up on youtube hopefully he tells me item priorities...

[winter harbor]

Use hidden sword too, makes you tankier and gives you damage reduction

[honest zephyr]

whats hidden sword? one of the aspects?

[molten nymph]

4th sword you can unlock later

[winter harbor]

One of the aspects

[honest zephyr]

yea i have no idea how to get that much titan blood

im like capped

basically i have the 6 u get for stage 1 complete with each weapon, and then i cant beat stage 4 sooo yea

[winter harbor]

There’s always the wretched broker

[molten nymph]

and the stage 4 shop

[honest zephyr]

honestly for 1 k darkness or whatever it costs im better off doing that ( stage 4 shop for blood) and try to save up 1200 g... and yea meh, i was thinking that, i could run the 150 g boon, and then run 3/3 midas touch, and then try to get like Poseidon and chaos buff ( which i have done before) for increase to loot for rest of the run, and try to get both early on with also like a hermes umm gold when round starts. and just do a collecting run...

[brisk trail]

can I only choose 1 aspect of the weapon?

[real edge]

you can only have one aspect equipped at a time yeah

[brisk trail]

sad

what's the best for the shield?

[pliant sparrow]

Hidden one

[real skiff]

wouldn't say there is a best one, they all have slightly different playstyles out of which you can pick your favorite

[winter harbor]

I like cast weapons

[real skiff]

uh what

[real edge]

I don't do many shield runs but i've heard ||Aspect of Chaos|| or ||Aspect of Beowulf|| are the most common

[real skiff]

why did the bot do that

[winter harbor]

Except for maybe the spear cast aspect, looks clunkier
