[lone sinew]

Even if Hercles won cerby with his bare hands Hercles is Hercles

dosen't matter

[tacit ember]

[stone pebble]

" Several escape attempts have failed due to this monster, far too graphic to describe" or something like that

[tacit ember]

oh ya that happend

is clifford bigger though?

[stone pebble]

he probably is

[sour star]

Clifford maybe can smash cerby

[stone pebble]

acutally probably not

[tacit ember]

so what if clifford eats cerby

[stone pebble]

clifford is probably a foot or two taller

[tacit ember]

no cerberus can fit in a room

[sour star]

He's gonna rip him inside out

Probably

[stone pebble]

lol

[tacit ember]

cliford is size of like building

[lone sinew]

Cerby would cut off he's neck with his teeth

[tacit ember]

is cerberus invincible

like is he like the lion

[sour star]

If Clifford is the size of a building

He can just sit on cerby

[tacit ember]

with inpenitrable skin

[sour star]

Till cerby suffocates

Then he wins

Probably

[tacit ember]

i can say someting but im not

insert antman meme

[sour star]

... no

[sour star]

...........

[lone sinew]

I have so many questions about this convo wth is happening

[stone pebble]

I feel like Cerberus would be a descendant of the Nemean Lion, but probably not

[tacit ember]

https://tenor.com/view/thumbs-up-antman-see-ya-disappear-shrink-gif-4484707

[tacit ember]

no?

[stone pebble]

Cant cerberus like, breathe fire?

Yeah Idk

[lone sinew]

Nemean Lion is not stronger than Cerby

[tacit ember]

lion has skin armor

[stone pebble]

yeah

[tacit ember]

does cerby have that

no?

[earnest coral]

what the hell, im ||boss fighting with a tiny rat||

[stone pebble]

no he doesnt

ur right

Ah

that boss

[lone sinew]

do you know who dosent care? Hercles he won both

[tacit ember]

ah yes the best boss

can barily see it

[stone pebble]

I feel like Cerberus would still win

Size doesnt matter

[tacit ember]

witch is stronger

[stone pebble]

thats what she said

[tacit ember]

big lion or big dog

[sour star]

It does

:V

V:

[tacit ember]

https://tenor.com/view/yuge-huge-donald-trump-gif-7357158

[stone pebble]

But like

Clifford cant fight at all

[sour star]

Sit

Sit on cerberus-

[lone sinew]

depends

[tacit ember]

he will win with the power of friendship

[sour star]

Where there's a will there's a way

[lone sinew]

I dont think Cerby's teeth or claws counts as weapons right?

[tacit ember]

yes they do

why wouldn't they

[lone sinew]

but still cerby could just crush the lion

[tacit ember]

lion skin armor

lion would not die but be very unconberterble

[lone sinew]

the lion's skin just counters weapons

[tacit ember]

yes

[stone pebble]

Hercules skinned the lion with his own claws

The lions claws

[tacit ember]

idk maybe cerberus is heavy enus to just sit on the lion

[lone sinew]

that's true

[tacit ember]

yes

[lone sinew]

Cerby wins

[carmine ravine]

i do want cerby skin on my back

[tacit ember]

didnt herc strangle the lion

[stone pebble]

hmm

[opaque nexus]

We taking about cerby vs a lion

[tacit ember]

cerberus could do the same thing

[stone pebble]

Herc did strangle him

[lone sinew]

not just a lion

[tacit ember]

maby cerberus does the lion kill strat

[sour star]

Bite the neck of the lion

[tacit ember]

where you bite the neck and strange the pray

[stone pebble]

Hmm

[lone sinew]

The Nemean lion

[opaque nexus]

Bro Hercules was weak didn’t even have the courage to fight a hippo

[stone pebble]

We're going into uncomfortable territory, ||What happens if cerberus gets one of his heads torn off?||

[sour star]

That's gonna be brutal

[lone sinew]

then he pays hydra to teach him how to grow heads

[sour star]

But he has other heads so

[stone pebble]

yeah thats why I censored it

[sour star]

There's still chances

[stone pebble]

LERNEAN DOG HYDRA

[lone sinew]

Cerby would just win that's about it

[stone pebble]

yeah

[tacit ember]

he bleads out

[sour star]

Lose by bleeding to death?

[tacit ember]

maby cerby was normal dog

hydra was like

yo

[stone pebble]

thats hot

[tacit ember]

do u want heads

[stone pebble]

BRUH

good one

[lone sinew]

there is a reason why the lion was the first labour and cerberus the last

it wasnt like dice throw

[stone pebble]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/313150108034400256/788194672844996648/tenor_1.gif

[lone sinew]

though the king wanted cerberus back alive but he lion just dead...

but still cerby would win

[stone pebble]

yeah

[tacit ember]

ops i ment to send go to horny jail

[sour star]

It took me a while to understand this joke,,,,

[stone pebble]

Would you say Hades is Lawful Neutral

[waxen juniper]

Pro Tip: Bears are not as gentle as they seem

[tacit ember]

pro tip bears are friendly

hipos kill more people

[lone sinew]

GOOD THINK YOU TOLD ME I WAS ABOUT TO GO AND GREET ONE

[opaque nexus]

I mean ||a bear has killed zagreus according to the narrator||

Hippos are

Scary

[void vigil]

@stone pebble please dont evade the swear filter!

[stone pebble]

oh

[waxen juniper]

Sadly, Zagreus didn't learn in time

[stone pebble]

I keep forgettinht hat

[lone sinew]

I dont think the narrator's tellings for Zagreus's deaths are canon

[tacit ember]

zag died to a cactus once

[lone sinew]

they are just memes

[opaque nexus]

Like, even lions struggle to hurt hippos in the wild

[tacit ember]

...

[opaque nexus]

And they are really fast

[stone pebble]

No, thats just the poet is describing his death

[waxen juniper]

He also died to waiting

[tacit ember]

we can all relate

[lone sinew]

by a goat too

[stone pebble]

Because saying, "He does an epic backflip then dies" again over and over is... yeah

[winter harbor]

I think that's the narrator just wanting to entertain us after a while

[lone sinew]

yup

[tacit ember]

yes

[lone sinew]

Zagreus is just WEAK and dies right after the fight

[stone pebble]

Zagreus does do an epic backflip tho

[tacit ember]

its sad u can only see the ||cotage ||10 times

[winter harbor]

I mean, his first escape post-story, ||the narrator just tells us to imagine he made it to the cottage, while Zag himself says he can't survive on the surface that long||

[tacit ember]

unless u creat a new save

[tacit ember]

yes

[stone pebble]

true

[tacit ember]

actualy no

[opaque nexus]

Hippos I think are among the animals that kill the most humans

[void vigil]

please spoiler tag that, @tacit ember

[carmine ravine]

||https://imgur.com/a/N9wrIQU ||

[stone pebble]

Bye bye!

I love that part

[lone sinew]

yeah man I cried it was so fun

[stone pebble]

Thats gotta be my favorite moment

in the game

besides the gameplay

[tacit ember]

i think the first time is zag tryes|| to go the the cotage and tend to the garden but he dies on the way there||

[lone sinew]

my fave moments were ||hades giving back my nectar and dusa my Ambrosia|| hehe

[opaque nexus]

I have seen each of those narrator messages dozens and dozens of times and they still make me giggle every so often

[tacit ember]

wowowow wait

||hades gives back the nector u give him||

?

[lone sinew]

you pressed it your fault it was a spoiler

[waxen juniper]

I think max upgraded demeter fists just took half of skelly's health 😆

[tacit ember]

i dont care for spoilers

[stone pebble]

other people might ho

tho*

[tacit ember]

i know ||dusa ||but now i know someting els

[lone sinew]

no he dosent

[winter harbor]

I like how demeter just fought the titans with her fists

[opaque nexus]

Yup

Granny’s gloves

[lone sinew]

||he does||

[tacit ember]

im confused now but ok

[opaque nexus]

||made you look||

[stone pebble]

Also, it was hilarious when ||"Wow Zag man, you are swimming in ambrosia! Y'know sniff I never knew I could be so proud of someone before!"||

[tacit ember]

bruh

anyway

[stone pebble]

Dionysus is best mate

[tacit ember]

if u can use fists as you wepon

you sould be able to go out bare handed

[opaque nexus]

Can we talk about how absurd breaching cross is

[gleaming nacelle]

I think the narrator is cannon

[tacit ember]

and do like 1 dmg per hit

[opaque nexus]

900% damage to armor

[tacit ember]

some one will find a way

[stone pebble]

Fun fact: The first 4 letters of Dionysus' name is my name

[lone sinew]

man i just read wow zag and i started hearing dio speaking in my head lol

[tacit ember]

that would only be 9 dmg because 1*9

[void vigil]

it used to be 4000%, didnt it

[tacit ember]

ok now every one knows ur name

[opaque nexus]

1000*

[stone pebble]

I dont mind :P

[opaque nexus]

Never heard the name Dion before

[stone pebble]

yeah idk, sounds cool though

[tacit ember]

what country

some were in europ i asume

[stone pebble]

Phillipines, dunno if thats a country, but yeah

[lone sinew]

it woulds seem so strange if you saw my name lol

[stone pebble]

Wait its a state

[tacit ember]

ahha so not eurup

[tacit ember]

r u joking or not

[stone pebble]

I was born in the Americas

[lone sinew]

[stone pebble]

[opaque nexus]

Geometry expert

[tacit ember]

[stone pebble]

Yeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

[lone sinew]

omg 20/20

[tacit ember]

dud geography

[stone pebble]

I gotta say, i'm pretty good at math

[opaque nexus]

That was a joke, probably should have conveyed that better

[tacit ember]

ahha

i think geology would have been beter for the joke idk

[lone sinew]

this is fun and all until a mod sees we talking about random stuff in hades discussion

[tacit ember]

a mod is online

[lone sinew]

shhh

[stone pebble]

monkaW

WELL

Dion, dionysus

Whats the difference

[lone sinew]

ysus

[stone pebble]

Im not sus!

[sour star]

(2)

[lone sinew]

LMAO

[stone pebble]

I set that up perfectly

[tacit ember]

dio is short for dionysus

so ur not dionysus

[stone pebble]

Yeah,

https://tenor.com/view/veggie-takes-thinking-gif-12998013

[lone sinew]

no Dio is Dio

[tacit ember]

dion-y-sus

[brisk trail]

very good yes yes

[timid compass]

since when can we post pictures in chat and why can't I do it

[tacit ember]

u cant

u can post links

[opaque nexus]

You can post the link to an image

[timid compass]

huh

[narrow hemlock]

if the link is the only thing in your message, discord will usually just auto embed it. but try not to abuse this to get around not being able to post images

[devout glen]

so, I just finished Erebus challange

what was even the point?

the reward was same as of any other room

[winter harbor]

it gives you pom that gives +2 lvl, +50 hp centaur heart, greater chance for boons to be rare

so the reward is better

[red tiger]

Why can't we post images anyway? I don't see the point

[narrow hemlock]

Cut down on spam

[red tiger]

If someone is going to post a someone nsfw, they are GOING to post it and of course dont care about the rules

[devout glen]

i only got a boon from athena though?

nothing else?

[red tiger]

What if the image is a part of the topic of the conversation

[winter harbor]

it's supposed to be a boon of higher rarity in that case

[red tiger]

Like I often have a question on something hades related and an image helps instead of me having to type out everything

so yes I just upload it to imgur and copy the link. which is a lot of seemingly pointless work

[devout glen]

oh ok

[tacit ember]

boons have higer rarity

also

u can look at the reward

and think about if its worth it or not

https://tenor.com/view/smart-thinking-thoughts-think-ponder-gif-7713620

[devout glen]

well it was my first time going there

I kinda figured that it has to be more than just a basic boon

[tacit ember]

its basicaly a miniboss room

[lone sinew]

because if you lose you lose the rewards and you get an onion that heals 1 hp instead

why didnt you guys said the most important one?

[edgy garnet]

[timid compass]

If is called "onion-1"
that implies the existence of an onion-2
Where is it

[carmine ravine]

🧅

[opaque nexus]

that is the second onion, it puts ~x when there are multiple emotes of the same name

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/392070250511728653/788835071599050793/unknown.png

[earnest coral]

yay i did another successful run

just need to do it another 3893849 times

[timid compass]

I just found hermes and he talked about how my win streak ended last run (64 wins)
I don't know if that's funny or depressing

[distant night]

wait he does that?

[timid compass]

he sure does

[distant night]

time to use more hermes chambers 👀

[red tiger]

dont you guys just LOVE already selecting to go to the next room and then seeing golden urns that you now are too late to get

[timid compass]

I think I accidentally made a bouncing build
I have the daedalus upgrade that makes my arrows bounce on nearby enemies
I'm using 4th aspect so my special bounces too
and I just got lightning phalanx

[waxen juniper]

That sounds like fun

[distant night]

bouncy bouncy

[timid compass]

it won't be much fun against bosses tho

actually

||if I hit one of hades's pots will my attacks bounce off?||

15 hp left in elysium
patrocles shows up

[distant night]

PATTY our best ex-machina

[vestal kestrel]

yoooo i just met the last god,|| demeter - crystal beam is so cool!|| whats the requirement for them to show up?|| im guessing its reaching the surface?||

[distant night]

yes

[vestal kestrel]

sweet

[distant night]

not even winning but just reaching it is enough

pretty sweet

[vestal kestrel]

yep, i definitely did not win

[red tiger]

yeah you get them as often as other gods @vestal kestrel

you have to just reach the surface one time to unlock

[vestal kestrel]

i was wandering who the last one would be cause there was only one missing

[distant night]

yeah, she's special

[vestal kestrel]

ive only used one of her boons but she seems very powerful

[waxen juniper]

All the gods are pretty powerful :)

[rare obsidian]

Lost my 25 streak with one hit left :(

Dang

[vestal kestrel]

rip

[red tiger]

THAT SUCKS

[vestal kestrel]

you'll get em next time

[rare obsidian]

Bummer

Moved too fast and a skull that I didn't see exploded

Oh well

[vestal kestrel]

you ever take one hit in tartarus and feel like you're never going to recover

like dang, that 5 dmg trap was the death of me

thats me every run

[distant night]

shivers in HS

[vestal kestrel]

is that the hard mode or something?

[rare obsidian]

Heightened security makes it do 25!

[vestal kestrel]

Ouch!

does it increase lava damage?

in asphodel

[rare obsidian]

I believe it's "traps and lava do +400% damage"

[distant night]

yes

[vestal kestrel]

nooooo

im so bad at avoiding lava

[rare obsidian]

Also I think it makes the styx saw blades do like 100 damage

[distant night]

15 damage when standing on lava for too long 😭

[vestal kestrel]

what even is heightened security?

chaos thing?

[distant night]

i think those do more since elysium arrows do 100 damage with HS

it's a late game thing

dont worry about it for now

[vestal kestrel]

ah

ok

[waxen juniper]

You'll find out once you beat the final boss for the first time

[distant night]

if you like reading

[rare obsidian]

Maybe the saws are 25 base damage then

Since the ||pots|| are 30

[distant night]

i only remember saws doing 600 damage to enemies

[timid compass]

Why is ||rama|| so hard to use

I just got my two first losses in a row since weeks

[pliant sparrow]

disable forced overtime if you havent already

[distant night]

FO and bow... sounds fun ;-;

[vestal kestrel]

who is everyones favorite fury sister?

[timid compass]

i don't have it on

[distant night]

tisiphone

[pliant sparrow]

are you dash powershotting?

[timid compass]

nah

why would I do that

[pliant sparrow]

it has a faster charge up time

to powershot

[vestal kestrel]

tisiphone is cool indeed

[distant night]

she is a sweetheart

[vestal kestrel]

mmmuurder

[distant night]

_and crazy easy to dodge especially with deflect on literally anything 👀 _

[vestal kestrel]

she creeped me out the first time i met her

[distant night]

hehe

mayber her mmmmmmmmmurder is something akin to "i am groot" and we just dont understand it enough

[vestal kestrel]

true

[pliant sparrow]

that voice actor must have had a real easy job

[vestal kestrel]

also, who did you give your first gift to? mine went straight to cerberus lol, and im still using his keepsake

[timid compass]

mmm...zzuuurder...

[pliant sparrow]

"hey we need you to come in to record ... 2 whole lines"

[red tiger]

knowing this game, she probably voices other characters too

[distant night]

Marianne Miller 👀 ?

[red tiger]

apparently Athena and Alecto

[distant night]

Marianne Miller is a member of Supergiant Games and provides the voice of Athena, Alecto, and Tisiphone.

ok yeah i love tisiphone now

[vestal kestrel]

is hades supergiants most popular game to date?

[red tiger]

duh

[distant night]

its their newest and biggest

[timid compass]

ok
I didn't realized what forced overtime was because my game is in french
but turns out is is activated

[distant night]

so i'd say, probably yes

[red tiger]

definitely yes what do you mean probably lol

[timid compass]

that might also explain why asterius is steamrolling me recently

[distant night]

asterius as a choo choo train

[vestal kestrel]

just bought some cyclops jerky. mmm. tasty

[pliant sparrow]

does anyone know any meme builds with fists?

[timid compass]

yo yo build

[pliant sparrow]

im getting tired of spamming ME or lightning to get to 20 bounties

[distant night]

then experiment

[timid compass]

try talos fists and poseidon on special
that's yo yo build

[bright geyser]

Quick question, Im playing the game for the first time on hellmode, and i havent beaten the final boss yet. I read online that I could get titanblood by beating the first time everytime i increase my heat level by 1, so I beat meg on heat level 6 for the first time but I didnt get any titan blood, did i misunderstand how the system worked?

[red tiger]

you havent beaten the final boss yet and you have heat?

is that something exclusive to hell mode?

[pliant sparrow]

hell mode starts at 5

[bright geyser]

hellmode you start the game at 5

[timid compass]

is middle management ok to take ?

[pliant sparrow]

yes

[pliant sparrow]

there might be some skips in heat levels

you needa fill up the bar to the left

[bright geyser]

Hmm lemme open up game and show u what i have

[pliant sparrow]

itll tell you what rewards are still to be earned before you start the run

if there is a checkmark in the first box, ur heat level isnt high enough yet

[timid compass]

do peoples actually use ||the sharanga boon|| in daedalus hammers?

[pliant sparrow]

if thats the one exclusive to hidden aspect, then no

[timid compass]

yeah that one

[pliant sparrow]

usually double, triple, power

[bright geyser]

Oh

[pliant sparrow]

things that build the attack / power shot

[bright geyser]

were not allowed to send images on this server it seem

I just made my heat level 32

and the checkmark still didnt disappear

[carmine ravine]

use image hosting and send embeds instead

[pliant sparrow]

if its first clear, then it may not work then

[timid compass]

Yooo I just noticed
when I look on peoples' profiles I can see where they are in the game

[distant night]

dont you need to first clear a heat stage before getting to the bounties of the next one?

[pliant sparrow]

oh right

[distant night]

else you could easily skip all of the heat levels?

[bright geyser]

Well i got my titanblood at the base heat level 5

[distant night]

yes

[pliant sparrow]

you needa fully clear level 5

[bright geyser]

and then i beat meg at heat level 6 and got no titanblood

[pliant sparrow]

to move up

[distant night]

thats basically 0 heat

you need to fully clear hades

[bright geyser]

Ohhh

ok.

[pliant sparrow]

if you're on 5 heat, you need to fully clear the 5 heat rewards to unlock the next heat rewards

[winter harbor]

you need to beat the game to move onto the next heat level

[distant night]

^

^^

[bright geyser]

Ok that would make sense, thank you!

[pliant sparrow]

that being said i wouldnt really recommend hell mode to a new player

it just makes the initial learning phase a lot harder and it makes it tougher to get resources

[timid compass]

oh
now that I discovered that dashing makes my next arrow charge much faster i'm gonna start playing very differently now

[pliant sparrow]

plus in the long term the difficulties between normal and hell mode will be the same

[distant night]

hell mode feels weird

normal mode just with RI maxed feels better

[winter harbor]

hell mode only has one difference from normal, personal liability

[distant night]

true

[winter harbor]

which means you don't get to be invincibile for a brief period upon getting a large hit

[distant night]

still coming in defenseless into the world with a weird abrupt start just feels wrong

[pliant sparrow]

personal liability isnt really too noticeable tho unless ur facing em3 minotaur

cuz there isnt really a boss that does a ton of damage multiple times in a row within the span of a few seconds

[distant night]

i wish there was a randomize button for the pact after getting 20 heat

[timid compass]

I accidentally no hitted extreme measures tisiphone

[distant night]

like you set your random heat to max 31 and it just spews something at you

[little scaffold]

So when Hades talks before a run does it effect anything?

like what is the difference

[pliant sparrow]

no

[little scaffold]

so it's just like lore

[cosmic helm]

Nah it is only for the lore

[timid grove]

is it me or are artemis boons bad?

[winter harbor]

Yep, just flavor text

[pliant sparrow]

artemis boons good

[vestal kestrel]

do the gods' keepsakes guarantee you will get their boon as your first?

[winter harbor]

Artemis is really good

[cosmic helm]

Artemis is nice

[little scaffold]

Artemis will always seem bad to new players

[pliant sparrow]

they're the only boons that universally work well across all weapons

[winter harbor]

she's awesome for cast builds or for big numbers

[timid grove]

2% critical hit chance isnt really great

[little scaffold]

I didn't think it was good till like 8 heat runs

and its kinda specific

[distant night]

not first but you will get one at least

[little scaffold]

but her call is pretty good

[pliant sparrow]

hermes/hammer can replace a god boon

if you use their keepsake

[timid compass]

does the game tells you that dashing before firing an arrow makes it charge faster?
because I only learned that now and it makes a world of difference

[distant night]

artemis has the sexiest boons and duo boons

[timid grove]

the seeking arrows are good tho

[cosmic helm]

Yes, only one time though (ie if you use it in tartarus it won't work again in asphodel)

[pliant sparrow]

but anyways crit chance is 👌 since you can deal over %450 damage just from crit

[cosmic helm]

And yeah it does not mean you will get it directly, you can still get other rewards before, but the first boon you will see will be from that god (hermes aside)

[timid compass]

I'm kinda new to that middle management thing, what do the weird projectiles from the witches's circle do?

[pliant sparrow]

they follow you

[timid compass]

huh
didn't noticed it that much

but at least that makes less projectiles on screen so that 's better

[pliant sparrow]

yah i dont really notice middle management

[winter harbor]

I think one of the only places where middle management is noticeably harder is with the medusa head/dropping rock monster

Because now you have to dodge the shockwave too

[timid compass]

alright
double arrow and artemis boon on attack with ||rama||?
pretty solid

[void ginkgo]

The hidden gun aspect I find good, except when it comes to ||Hades|| , then you have to run around a lot. It melts trash MOBs though.

[timid compass]

Does the game tells you that dashing before attacking with the bow makes your attack charge faster?
I wish I knew that in my last two runs

[mighty sail]

I don't believe it does. The way it has you test weapons with Skelly works great for everything except specifically bow dash attacks. Could really use a line of text to explain it

[distant night]

dashattack is always kinda different which gets shown via the skelly tutorial that it always asks you to dashattack

it doesnt tell you per se WHAT dashattack does for any weapon but it always gets shown as its own respectable attack

the tutorial kinda forces you to find out yourself, really brave to do that of sgg but newcomers to games like hades really dont get so much out of it

[timid compass]

I'm lucky to have a big damage build
middle managements makes two minibosses appear in the temple of styx

[cobalt haven]

artemis good 😔

[stone pebble]

artemis best waifu

[cobalt haven]

meg for me but to each their own

[stone pebble]

"I-It's not like I wanted to give this boon to you, b-baka! "

[distant night]

artemis simps unite

[stone pebble]

-Artemis, probably

[timid compass]

I am here

[mighty sail]

I remember seeing the bow dash attack on the skelly tutorial and triggering it and just saying "so it's just the same thing?" And then not using it again until reading that it charges faster

[cobalt haven]

i have not used the bow in months

[stone pebble]

bow is op

[timid compass]

Bow main here

[cobalt haven]

im impatient 😔

[distant night]

i feel you brother 😔

[cobalt haven]

I main fists but i mainly use the gun rn

[stone pebble]

GUN

People just call it gun

I call it the

[distant night]

[distant night]

exagryph is weird to type ;-;

[stone pebble]

Took my a while to find that gif

me

[timid compass]

I was gonna say "not having forced overtime on makes a world of difference"
but I guess having 5 dashes also helps

[distant night]

FO2 can truly suck the air out of ya

what is breathing if you have an armored numbskull ||in erebus|| hunting you with FO2

[timid compass]

breathing?
more like
HHHHHHHHH

also random crits are fun
I just took down ||the first third of hades's health with only 3 attacks of rama||

[distant night]

https://tenor.com/view/chuckles-im-in-danger-ralph-wiggum-the-simpsons-gif-14149962

||hades|| ^

[timid compass]

yeah

I really needed to learn about the dash attack thing

I went from losing my 64 win streak and dying twice in a row to ||Extreme measures hades to mowing through him without losing a single death defiance||

[cobalt haven]

64 win streak....

im only at 24

[brisk trail]

FO2 is a really good thing to put on early

once you get used to it, no FO feels hella slow

[hushed pumice]

Yeah no fo is slow motion

[cobalt haven]

woahh

caught a voidskate

[timid compass]

cries in projelly

what if holes in hades weren't acting like walls and instead were really holes
btw I'm surprised there's no trap hole in the game

[timid compass]

one thing that I think is really cool about hades is that you get to choose is you want to go for a specific build or leave it up to chance

[kind zenith]

whats a better budgety aspect for shield, chaos or zeus?

[lone sinew]

If you want something to start using rn and it pays off right from the start chaos though if you learn how zeus works I think it can be better

[brisk trail]

budgety in the sense of titan blood?

zeus is better value on unlock, chaos needs to be maxed to be great imo

[real edge]

Zeus Aspect for Shield is my favourite

[kind zenith]

ye meant titan blood

ty guys

[real edge]

I've never really liked Chaos Aspect

[remote anchor]

It would get old the third time you dashed into one

[brisk trail]

same

[timid compass]

Narrator: and then he falls to his death.
.
.
.
I'm just foolin'.

||I went in erebus and got an armored elysium archer except it was one from the hades fight and the 4th arrow caught me off guard||

it's time

[winter harbor]

Shame zag never cooks the onions

Onion soup is delicious

And baked onions look delicious too

[real edge]

Underworld Onion Rings

🤤

[timid compass]

"Longing for the taste of onion, boy?"

Saturn: mmmh, onion boy...

[remote anchor]

Define beatable

[timid compass]

put that in spoilers
and yes, he is

[glacial plover]

ok

i

i'll delete it

[brisk trail]

bork

[verbal wraith]

just to clarify - if I delete the game will the saves remain when I reinstall?

on steam

[lone sinew]

Most likely you won't lose it but I can't say for sure

[timid compass]

um
alright
I think I just killed ||extreme measures asterius|| in less than 10 seconds

[lone sinew]

Hmm? What build?

[timid compass]

chiron bow
demeter on special

[lone sinew]

Try questioning that on the tech support channel

Oh you had her legendary?

[timid compass]

arctic blast
the daedalus that increases the special's dmg for each arrow that hits
and the one that adds 4 arrows

[glacial plover]

bow is always op imo

[lone sinew]

Yes but demeter if not the best it's the most fun for chiron in my opinion I should try playing some day

[timid compass]

I'll post my build in #h1-victory-boasting once I'm done with the run

[lone sinew]

Ok cool

[timid compass]

I have the mirror effect that makes enemies take 40% more dmg when afflicted with 2 or more afflictions
my attack has zeus with jolted and special has freeze

[icy fox]

I feel like most of the damage I take in styx comes from the ax traps that aren't telegraphed in any way

[glacial plover]

im still suprised

that 40% of people beat hadex

hades

[icy fox]

When something steps on the pressure plate, the ax traps fall seemingly at random

You'd basically need to memorize the drop locations to not get hit

[red tiger]

6 MEGABYTE PATCH

ALMOST 7!!!

this is huge!!!!!!

[timid compass]

well
it's not like there's a big red line at the point where the axe will fall

[lone sinew]

Aphodel has bombs lava hydra but in the end of the day it's fun. Elysium has some annoying enemies too but it's fun! Styx... it's either having fun with your final damage or just annoying

[timid compass]

The worst room in styx has to be the one with double sawblades going through the room and "safe point" in left and right that fill with poison when you stay here for too long

because these rooms are always filled with giant rats, and after the 2 first waves the floor is covered in poison

[hallow gate]

Sup bois

[warped iron]

hi friend

[timid compass]

so now on top of my broken chiron build when I get hit I inflict jolted, freeze, cursed and charmed (on top of the huge amount of damage the enemies will take)

it's really a good time to have privileged status on

HAHAHAHA
I just beat ||Extreme measures hades before he could even summon cerberus||!

7th projelly in a row WHYYY

[plush citrus]

as someone who likes the fists and is chronically unable to git gud, i really fricken hate styx & just how easy it is to get poisoned 😬

[winter harbor]

get athena's deflect attack on fists

deflect the poison back to them

[timid compass]

I think they meant the pools of poison dropped by the rats

[cobalt haven]

my god

just beat theseus em3 first try

[pliant sparrow]

nice

[brisk trail]

nice

[cobalt haven]

im so tired ;-;

[nocturne ginkgo]

I just realized since I started playing again which the last time I was able to play was before 1.0 I haven't seen the miniboss room in tartarus with the 4 trap platforms in the middle

[pliant sparrow]

the new minotaur is so fricking hard to beat if you dont know his animations

[nocturne ginkgo]

but I just saw it on someones stream so I know it still exists

[brisk trail]

doomstone?

[pliant sparrow]

its a heat pact

[timid compass]

you need to play with middle management for it to appear

[nocturne ginkgo]

Oh interesting

[timid compass]

and if you mean the one with wave skeletons it's gone

now it has a doomstone

[nocturne ginkgo]

huh neat

[waxen juniper]

I don't even know the level but thank goodness!

[nocturne ginkgo]

I liked the wave skelly room lol

it was just two shielded wave skellies

[waxen juniper]

Ah, probably why they took it out

[timid compass]

now we have two shielded bomb skellies in a regular room

[waxen juniper]

I thoufht it'd be an army of wave skellies

[nocturne ginkgo]

we've always had that one though

[timid compass]

and with middle management there's green bomb throwers too

[waxen juniper]

Which, no thanks

[nocturne ginkgo]

I forgot the room existed tbh until I saw it on a stream lol

[waxen juniper]

Also, fun fact: the upgrade on Hera Bow has zero effect on stygian soul

[timid compass]

thankfully I'm using the other one

[waxen juniper]

There's been occasions where I switch to Stygian, but Infernal Soul is normally the go to

[timid compass]

I'm guessing stygian is for consistent dmg
while infernal is for burst

[waxen juniper]

Yep. I pretty much use it with cast-centric weapons since you can consistently use their effect.

||Beowulf and Poseidon|| don't make much sense to do that way though

[past pollen]

HELL YEAH

CROSS SAVE

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

sorry bot

i couldnt contain my excitement.

[timid compass]

huh
interesting
don't have a switch so good for y'all

[tired sundial]

Watch those reactions grow

[thorn tendon]

why is hermes using such an old, slow storage material

:\a

[brisk trail]

LoL at the reactions in #announcements for cross saves

[thorn tendon]

I guess floppy disks are an upgrade from parchment

[timid compass]

I thought hermes was holding a paint brush and there was orange paint flowing from it
but it's a floppy

[thorn tendon]

he absolutely looks fly tho

[plush citrus]

CROSS SAVES

[thorn tendon]

man makes floppy disks look real good

[nocturne reef]

hermes with the floppy discs

[brisk trail]

I think floppy disks as an idea will never die

[winter harbor]

What else are you expecting?

[brisk trail]

Universal "save" icon is the floppy disc

[thorn tendon]

@acoustic saffron idk bud I have met many, many younger folks who have no idea what that is

as in, they know it's the "Save" icon

[timid compass]

omg
there's a turtle on his bag

[thorn tendon]

but no clue wtf it represents

"why did you 3D print a save icon"

[winter harbor]

they live in ancient times, they don't have anything better than floppy disks

[timid compass]

🐢

[nocturne reef]

turtle friend up front and center

[thorn tendon]

they'd go "oh cute he's holding a giant bag of save icons!"

[analog elbow]

Greg, there are no new patch notes in #hades-patch-notes

[summer forge]

We can now load up our steam data onto the switch? Has anyone tried it yet

[nocturne reef]

it's an amalgimation of all the recent pc patch notes

[timid compass]

hermes is so nice
he take the turtle for a ride because she's too slow

[patent topaz]

have you all noticed the turtle

[thorn tendon]

💾

[timid compass]

t o r t i s

[quasi ginkgo]

I just

I just love the hermes art

[thorn tendon]

hmmm I think it's a tortise

[patent topaz]

who is he

HOLD UP

[summer forge]

Hermes look different in this drawing

[plush citrus]

you'd need about 7,290 floppy disks to hold all the hades data from the ~10GB download lmao

[zealous timber]

@analog elbow -- that is implying the Switch patch is now up to date with all the PC patches, so players on Switch can review them there. The PC and Switch are now identical.

[thorn tendon]

the Tortise, from Aesop

[analog elbow]

Ah gotcha, ty

[summer forge]

Just me who sees a difference in his face?

[patent topaz]

ok i know hermes invented the lyre using a turtle's carapace

so oof

[timid compass]

someone needs to tell him he's losing floppy discs
they're flowing from his bag
if players lose their saves we know who to blame

[sweet ore]

thanks a lot for the update!

[winter harbor]

Hades pvp

[summer forge]

@brisk trail no

[thorn tendon]

oh that could be it too?

idk!

[plush citrus]

i wasnt gonna buy it for the switch but i guess i am now 🤷‍♂️

[summer forge]

This isn't some FORNITE game LMAO

[carmine ravine]

hermes stole ur save files

[patent topaz]

that turtle is completely unaware of its doom ;-;

[real edge]

itll be alright

[timid compass]

my question is
if hermes is so fast
how is the turtle holding on to begin with

[patent topaz]

how could a battle royale work with hades when chaos is a thing

[summer forge]

Kinda asking for too much there

[thorn tendon]

battle royale is dumb and just the Popular Flavor of the Now

just like mmos were 7 ~ 10 years ago

[summer forge]

Plus as far as I'm aware aren't battle royales more of a pvp shooter game type of thing

[wise vessel]

can't see any updates on my switch just yet

[summer forge]

Listen mmos are still my thing even in 2020

[thorn tendon]

oh hey dude don't get me wrong -- I love MMOs

[patent topaz]

that turtle is also inside his bag in the game sprite
so him and Artemis both have pets. Nice

[winter harbor]

It can still be a shooter

[thorn tendon]

But you can't deny that like 7 years ago or so there were A LOT of Follow The Leader Let's Be the Next WoW!

[summer forge]

You're in the wrong discord server for that chainsaw

[brisk trail]

never realized hermes carries a tortoise in his bag on his in-game sprite too

[winter harbor]

force everyone to use the rail gun

[timid compass]

for real
Hermes is probably the nicest of all the olympus gods
he's the only one to not trash talk everyone else in their back
in fact he mostly says good thing about everyone
he absolutely deserves the two ambrosias I gave him

[thorn tendon]

(I actively play GW2 and ESO, and I played SW:TOR for a bit too)

oh derp didn't mean to reply to that comment specifically but whatever

[summer forge]

@thorn tendon just like how forums were the bomb back in 2008

[pliant sparrow]

tbh any discord server with the average age above 13 is probably the wrong server for fortnite

[winter harbor]

is fortnite still popular?

[summer forge]

Between 13 year Olds ya

[winter harbor]

What a shame they abandoned the survival mode, I think it was

[summer forge]

I still can't believe nintendo created a fortnite edition switch

[thorn tendon]

yeah more or less. or like how Doom-ish shooters were stupid popular after Doom got stupid popular

[warped iron]

in that case, discord is the wrong server for fortnite smh

[winter harbor]

Because they turned f2p with the battle royale stuff and left their original fans in the dust

Tetris 99 is the only good battle royale

[waxen juniper]

Can y'all take this to #off-topic-discussion please

[summer forge]

@thorn tendon my mmo is maplestory LMAO

[thorn tendon]

lol valid

[patent topaz]

https://imgur.com/9RvlKdQ here it is!! @brisk trail

[summer forge]

Turtles are slow but not when it's with hermes

Such a good team tbh

[hoary urchin]

this game shouldve won GOTY. Its story and gameplay was amazing

[brisk trail]

yea i just noticed it today it's really cute that it's just chillin in his satchel

[zealous timber]

@wise vessel if you press + on the game, you may be able to force the update.

[hoary urchin]

blows cp2077 out of the water (i know cp2077 wasnt eligible for this year)

[summer forge]

Hades is a better game

[hoary urchin]

i was so hyped for cp2077, and it was such a letdown

im so glad i had this game for 2020

[pliant sparrow]

why is there a random turtle on hermes bag

[summer forge]

@hoary urchin because of how it turned out on console or are there other issues?

@pliant sparrow turtle has always been with him

[winter harbor]

because he's the god of turtles

[timid compass]

Kinda sad that games filled with bugs is the main standard for a good game nowadays

[hoary urchin]

a lot of the other issues, not just the bugs

[summer forge]

This is why they needed to do beta testing

[pliant sparrow]

nah then that would expose all their bugs

[summer forge]

Their release already did that

[pliant sparrow]

why else would they restrict all gameplay vids until release date

to get preorder money

[summer forge]

Didn't some players get refunds though

[pliant sparrow]

not all will

most wont prolly

too much work

[summer forge]

Well more specifically.. Some Console players were able to get refunds

[brisk trail]

i sort of wish it were easier to ignore cyberpunk bc i've never been interested in it

[winter harbor]

I heard companies like sony are refusing refunds

[pliant sparrow]

plus they announced they would fix the game, it'll just take a few more months

[winter harbor]

cries in crunch time

[pliant sparrow]

which is what they should have done in the first place, or just not sold the product for ps4

[waxen juniper]

Why does it always feel like asphodel is so short?

[pliant sparrow]

its only 6 chambers

it is short

[summer forge]

Ps4 can still run some crazy amazing graphics for other games though

[hoary urchin]

its not just the bugs that make cp2077 disappointing

[waxen juniper]

That feels like a strange decision

[hoary urchin]

theres so much stuff that was cut or not relevant

[summer forge]

Cb2077 literally looks like roblox on ps4

[pliant sparrow]

yah cuz those games are exclusive to ps4

[hoary urchin]

i pray to god supergiant games never ends up like this

[pliant sparrow]

cyberpunk was clearly made for next gen graphics

[waxen juniper]

#off-topic-discussion please

[winter harbor]

Supergiant has mandatory vacations

[summer forge]

And better games

[shrewd lance]

;

.

[warped iron]

u ok fam

[vestal kestrel]

shield is now my favorite weapon

[pliant sparrow]

aspect?

[summer forge]

Spear is my favorite weapon as well as the fists

[vestal kestrel]

i've only used the normal one

[summer forge]

I didn't realize how good the spear was

[hoary urchin]

chaos shield is OP

[summer forge]

It's weird since I also main pole arm users on genshin impact

[winter harbor]

I'm ok with spear but I think it's one of the clumsier weapons to use

[timid compass]

apparently I'm doing a castless hera run
I reached elysium and still didn't get a cast boon

[vestal kestrel]

i spam attack, then when an enemy attacks i block then bull rush

[hoary urchin]

im so glad hades had a ||happy fulfilling ending||

so tired of ||depressing ends||

[summer forge]

Spoilers please

[winter harbor]

What a shame they never fixed up asphodel

[pliant sparrow]

this whole game has happy endings?

for the most part

[summer forge]

Aight time to go back to work

[timid compass]

if they fix asphodel, where will lernie sleep now?

[static sapphire]

welp, time to buy hades a second time lol

[plucky ridge]

WTF that was unexpected

[upbeat sigil]

So excited!

[shy notch]

So does this update bring the patch changes to the switch version?

[upbeat sigil]

I got hades like, 2 weeks ago on pc. I was loving it but I am home for break and haven't been able to play, but now I can pick it back on switch!!!

[drowsy warren]

I wonder what the improvements are

[valid wave]

Yoooooo, nice update!

As I promised when the Switch version came out, I'll be buying the Steam version now as well.

[upbeat sigil]

I know this has been being worked on for a while, but it's like perfect timing for me

[fickle horizon]

Will steam achievements automatically unlock after transferring one’s save?

[violet sluice]

So uh front facing Hermes got me like: 😳 but also time to buy the game on pc cause I love and wanna support Supergiant and the team 😌✌️

[lean path]

With the cross save update finally here I’m afraid the game isn’t gonna be receiving new updates now

[vestal kestrel]

they gotta update the FAQ now regarding cross saves

[carmine ravine]

ping them

[silent swift]

eeeh I have a question

[uneven schooner]

Yay updates!!

[tribal glade]

Kinda wish I bought Hades on PC when it was on sale just recently

[pliant sparrow]

itll be on sale in 6 days lol

[silent swift]

for the bad call achievement do you need to use the exact same god greater call against them during a god trial or it can be any call?

[tribal glade]

Lol why 6 days? Xmas sale?

[pliant sparrow]

yah

steam xmas sale starts then

[hardy flume]

AAA SO HAPPY ABOUT CROSS-SAVE

[winter harbor]

yeah, you have to use the greater call of the god you angered

[vestal kestrel]

i bought it on sale then i bought the soundtrack

[silent swift]

ok thanks

[amber lichen]

How do I get cross saves to work on my ps5 😑

[earnest mortar]

Can the devs name the turtle in Hermes' bag

[vestal kestrel]

there's a turtle in his bag?

[real edge]

Yeah, ||dead||

[plucky ridge]

Thats coco jumbo 👉👉

[earnest mortar]

NO JOJO REFERENCES DHSJBDJD

[timid compass]

I was doing fine in elysium
and then I took 100 dmg from a single trap

[earnest mortar]

I can't escape vento aurei

[patent topaz]

yep

[earnest mortar]

Aureo***

[plucky ridge]

Oreo***

[vestal kestrel]

heightened security?

[timid compass]

yes

[vestal kestrel]

rip

[winter harbor]

that's why I never turn on heightened security

Only did it for the prophecy once

[real edge]

I find it ||heightened security|| fun

[vestal kestrel]

can't wait to experience the endgame now that i've ||escaped||

[real edge]

I get to take 125 damage from one thing

[waxen juniper]

It's honestly not too bad until the final boss. Those pots will get ya

[timid compass]

ayyy
finally got aphrodite cast for hera
now I can do the funny shotgun build

[lean path]

Laughs in Athena dash

[timid compass]

I also got the boon that increases up close dmg

[pliant sparrow]

after first clear ur in beginning - mid game

games pretty big

[real edge]

tis chonky

[lean path]

Can anyone find the patch notes btw?

[pliant sparrow]

#hades-patch-notes

all post launch patches

switch is caught up now

[lean path]

It shows up until the dec 1 patch

[pliant sparrow]

that was the last patch

[lean path]

Oh ok I thought a new one was coming today

[timid compass]

"I come with important new unfortunately not for you!"
-hermes
this is getting too meta

[pliant sparrow]

all the pc patches are now in switch

[amber lichen]

Is switch going to stay caught up now? What will happen to cross saves if pc gets another update?

[pliant sparrow]

as a secret dev, i can't really tell you the classified info

[karmic thistle]

Shouldn't there be patch notes for the cross-save update?

[pliant sparrow]

#hades-patch-notes

[cinder lichen]

The fact that there’s special art for something like this is adorable

[pliant sparrow]

all pc patches are now on switch

[timid compass]

after how much bonus damage% would you consider it to be a good pierced butterfly run?

[karmic thistle]

Okay I was wondering if there was specific notes about the cross-save feature but I guess its pretty self explanatory

[timid compass]

I currently have 32% before the heroes

[lone sinew]

You are good

[split quail]

Hi guys, what channel would be the best to post feedback?

[winter harbor]

yeah, that's good

[pliant sparrow]

there are 12 rooms in tart, 6 in asph, 8 in elysium before each last shop

[pliant sparrow]

if its a bug, #h1-tech-support

if its a suggestion, that channel has closed

[split quail]

A ok, it would have been the latter

[timid compass]

huh
so I killed theseus with ||achilles and patrocles and he said "achilles has returned!" after he died||

[past pollen]

wait

[pliant sparrow]

how did you kill theseus with them?

[past pollen]

is cross save 1 way

[pliant sparrow]

"Before using Cross-Saves, please be sure to read the in-game Help & Info section in the Cross-Saves submenu."

[past pollen]

oh

thank u

i cant brain

thank yu

[timid compass]

well... there's a reason it's written in spoilers

that's all I'm gonna say

[brisk trail]

that happened to me too oolung lol

[waxen juniper]

||companion||

[lone sinew]

Yeah happened to me today too

[brisk trail]

|| https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/328246239160434691/784916839141736518/theseus.mp4 ||

different companion thp

[pliant sparrow]

thats only ||archilles' companion tho||

not both of them

[timid compass]

it absolutely is for both of them

[waxen juniper]

They are the dynamic duo

[pliant sparrow]

oh wait nvm ive never used it before

[timid compass]

theseus really just said " "

[waxen juniper]

It's quite good

[lone sinew]

They are the same ||keepsake||

[pliant sparrow]

ive only used ||meg and sisyphus ||

dont see a reason to use the rest

[lone sinew]

I'm just using every ||keepsake|| because I want to finish all the entries on my codex

[unkempt gyro]

Does Hades run in 60FPS in handheld mode on Switch? If anyone knows

[high flame]

I have 87 Profile1.sav files in Hades. Any insight on which one to change to Profile2?

[pliant sparrow]

since ||meg|| can hit more than 2 enemies, for more damage

[timid compass]

I've learned something today
usually in a run you can only meet max. 4 different olympus gods (without using keepsakes)
but if you only find 3 , when you reach the temple of styx you can have 2 new gods show up

(hermes doesn't count)

[rough token]

If you need help with cross-saves, please head over to #h1-tech-support

[lone sinew]

Though ||chaos fishes, visiting erebus another 50 times and charon's sales card 6 times||

Is gonna be rough

[timid compass]

don't you hate when you use pierced butterfly and you only get hit by a small rat in the last room?

[storm pagoda]

i dont know exact fps, but game runs well in handheld yes

[lone sinew]

Yes now that you mentioned it's been sometimes since I used butterfly I shall try it someday

[waxen juniper]

My favorite thing is when I'm ||hiding from dad's lasers and then all of a sudden he dies from hangover|| 😆

[lone sinew]

You say it like it's happening most of the times

[pliant sparrow]

||just go real close to him when he lasers||

||free dps||

[timid compass]

Me: hmm today I shall do a butterfly run
Me after not getting a single stack through asphodel: NEVER AGAIN
the next day: hmm today I shall do a butterfly run
...

[waxen juniper]

It happens on rare occasions. I don't do hangover runs that often

[lone sinew]

||Hades em4: oh is it free dmg? Heheheheh||

[waxen juniper]

You can do it! I found zag shield is nice with this because it has base damage increase

Haven't tried em4 yet, I'm too scared. Plus, I don't need to increase the heat that high yet

[lone sinew]

It's not that scary I won first try

[waxen juniper]

GG

I am also not very comfortable with EM3. I know people say it is easier, but it is going to take a while to adjust to that fight. My main heat go to is benefits package, EM2 and maybe hard labor. Haven't needed much else yet

[pliant sparrow]

ehhh i wouldnt say its too much easier

or easier at all

[karmic thistle]

Will the game be going on sale on Switch again now that Cross-Saves have been added?

[pliant sparrow]

just depends on ur comfort level with the new animations

[timid compass]

Poseidon's call? check
proud bearing? check
epic quick favor? check
Yep, it's big waves time

[lone sinew]

Though today that I decided to jump from ||20 to 32 heat|| (idk why lol) first try I added ||em4|| and he smacked me while the second time I removed him and won so yeah he can be scary

[upbeat sigil]

If I already own hades on steam, it's still full price to purchase on the eshop I assume, right?

[lone sinew]

I thought ||em3|| was better too until I removed it at some point and I realised how much easier the normal fight is

[upbeat sigil]

If so, I don't really mind since 2 copies of hades is 50 dollars, which is still less than a lot of triple a games

[halcyon delta]

Yeah it is

[waxen juniper]

Yea, I feel that. I only did it for the quest.
There will be a time when I'll try it again, but I'm just not ready for it yet

I prefer to just take the heat one step at a time to collect my rewards

[upbeat sigil]

Fair enough, I'm still buying it on switch regardless, I just figured if there was a discount id use it lol

[lone sinew]

Well if I learned a lesson from rushing to do 32 today is... don't rush guys have fun take your time it was a mistake even if I did it. It was not fun and I'm def not rushing again

[pliant sparrow]

yah 32 is so much harder than 20

since 20 you can take a bunch of free heats

[plush citrus]

yeah ^ that was my experience. like, i did it, i was proud, not rushing back though.
but as i've said elsewhere i am unable to git gud and dont even want to, really haha

[upbeat sigil]

What do you guys mean by rushing

[pliant sparrow]

going straight to 32

[waxen juniper]

I tried jumping from 8 to 16 to get the 2nd skelly statue. That was a big mistake ☠️

[upbeat sigil]

Oh, instead of going slowly?

[pliant sparrow]

yah

[plush citrus]

yeah it's easier to add heat little by little

[waxen juniper]

Yeah. Just not pushing yourself harder than you can handle.

[halcyon delta]

The titan blood helps for sure

[upbeat sigil]

I jumped up to 8 to see skelly's first secret, but otherwise I haven't been jumping up huge amounts

Well, except to do em4 as a challenge to myself

[halcyon delta]

But I guess if you're at 20 already you probably already have buffed the aspects you like

[lone sinew]

It's not only about aspects I jumped 12 points it's not a small amount

[waxen juniper]

I encourage Benefits Package. It's tough, but it makes the game have a lot more enemy variants. Plus, I also find it to be quite fun.

[merry fulcrum]

Does anyone know if Side Hustle is intended to interact with money-boosting Chaos boons or not?

[halcyon delta]

BP is pretty fun yeah

[winter harbor]

It doesn't

[merry fulcrum]

ok cuz i got the two of them the other night and i wasnt sure if they were supposed to interact or not

since the Side Hustle money isnt "found" per se

[pliant sparrow]

if u got 2 of them then couldnt u see if ur money per chamber increased or not?

[merry fulcrum]

i was a bit disappointed ngl 😔

i got them just to test

it didnt increase and i wasnt sure if that was intentional or not

bummer too since Chaos was doubling my income

[timid compass]

I saw the speech bubble above hypnos
and I was like "FINALLY"
turns out it was only him congratulating me for my 100th death

[mystic steeple]

Hey y'all

[merry fulcrum]

tfw stuck waiting on Hypnos, Achilles/Pat, and Asterius' waking phrase

suffering

[waxen juniper]

Sadly, that happened to me on a trash run. A run that was so bad I intentionally killed myself. Didn't have the same wait :(

[timid compass]

asterius?

[waxen juniper]

Only two of those has a waking phrase.
Now of you are talking about favors, three of them have favors

[merry fulcrum]

||asterius gives the waking phrase for the Fists||

[timid compass]

oh

[waxen juniper]

Spoiler please

[pliant sparrow]

asterius doesnt have a favor

[waxen juniper]

Thank you

[timid compass]

what do you mean by "favor"?

[merry fulcrum]

the former two im just waiting on their subplots to finally unlock their Codex hearts

[lone sinew]

Is ||skelly's companion|| good or is it gonna be suffering for 3 runs?

[pliant sparrow]

oh wait you nvm u counted arch/patty as 2 separately

[waxen juniper]

Unlocking the heart. I'm not sure what the official name for it is

[timid compass]

I only have hypnos left to unlock

it's called making a bond
maxing out their heart will create a bond between you and the character

[pliant sparrow]

no u need to do favor to make a bond

[waxen juniper]

I have hypnos, demeter, and I need to give Hermes his ambrosia

[merry fulcrum]

he's referring to the locked heart

where you have to reach some subplot event flag to continue on and max the hearts

but since the game has some iffy prioritization of those events

[lone sinew]

You have Hermes unlocked?

[merry fulcrum]

cue waiting on NPCs to finally stop talking about irrelevent matters and finally letting you dump some Ambrosia onto their heads

[mental sail]

HERMES HAS A TURTLE ON HIS BAG

WHAT

[lone sinew]

I'm stuck waiting for Demeter and Hermes forever these guys are so stubborn!!!

[merry fulcrum]

"Oh hey Zagreus i heard you ||got Nyx and Chaos reconnected|| that's cool"
"Achilles that literally happened two in-game weeks ago PLEASE let me give you more booze"

[lone sinew]

One time I saw demeter heart unlock and then my pc closed...

[timid compass]

I can understand other characters having other important dialogues to say before they unlock their heart
but hypnos's been sleeping for hundred of runs and the only thing he said was "congrats! you died 100 times!"
it should unlock soon after ||hades and thanatos congratulates him for making good work, right?||

[lone sinew]

And when I opened it again I had to clear the encounter again but she didn't repeated the same dialogue so I lost it...

[pliant sparrow]

wow quitting the game doesnt reset the run for you?

[lone sinew]

Hypnos didn't take much time for me

No it restarts the encounter

[kind zenith]

does zeus shield work with any other specials beside zeus special

[pliant sparrow]

that doesnt really make any sense then since the game only allows you to "quit" at certain times

[timid compass]

does anyone else has a music track missing between good riddance and ode to zagreus?
if so, which one is it and how do I unlock it?

[pliant sparrow]

have you finished orpheus storyline yet?

[timid compass]

I wanted to play music but then hades said "it is not music hour yet!" : (

yeah

[pliant sparrow]

like unlocked all of his hearts and everything?

[timid compass]

maxed his bond

I did

[pliant sparrow]

theres one you get from dionysus

[rough token]

some music tracks require you to get to certain points in the game to unlock, so you might be waiting on that

[merry fulcrum]

Dionysus and Demeter also like rapid-hit weapons to get quick status stacks

if you get Support Fire from Artemis it also becomes silly

[pliant sparrow]

doom is good too

[kind zenith]

ty

wouldnt doom be bad on special

cause it wouldnt stack

uinless i get the stack boon

[pliant sparrow]

if ur going dionysus why dont u just go chaos instead?

[merry fulcrum]

it doesnt stack yes

[pliant sparrow]

well why u use zeus special then

if ur going for stacking

[kind zenith]

also what can i do about not getting the boon i want on spawn from my keepsake lol
