Wrote horny fanfiction based on the Homeric epics glorifying his bae Augustus
Your soul is mine - Hades 413BC
The Aeneid isn't even good 
Iliad is overrated, Odyssey is top notch.
But at least the Iliad is pretty decent.
If you've never read the Odyssey go do it because it's honestly great.
The Aeneid is like bad fanfiction though.
Odin's stink eye is a much more potent weapon
@surreal adder 4th aspects are spoilers in this channel as an fyi
please use spoiler tags
2 of them on each side ^_^
Idk, odin is not much of a fighter iirc
Question, quality of life changes and suggestions can be asked for here or in another channel specifically?
Unlike ||guan yu, which is a literal war god||
I'm now slightly unstoppable
ah there used to be a feedback channel but that was through early access. we dont really have a place for suggestions anymore, outside of the steam subforum
Gotcha, thanks!
Not a god at all.
Very mortal human person.
I should have led with It's weird to me that the hidden aspects are ||a king, a general, 2 heros and satan||
||Rama's a god is he not?||
@surreal adder well, ||Satan|| being identified with ||Lucifer|| is actually a rather modern interpretation
There's no real evidence in the Bible's older Aramaic and Greek translations that that's the case.
||Satan|| just means "the enemy"
You got the point magic book man
Yes.
I just wonder if I'd want them all ||Gods or heros|| or some other group
The non hidden aspects also have a mix of gods and heroes.
Achilles was at no point more than a mortal.
Well, he had some literal plot armor
But he was still mortal.
Chiron wasn't human, but was not a deity or god either
Fine
||Guest Gods or Heroes||
smh no aspect of theseus
Good
If Theseus and Asterius hypothetically played baseball I'm pretty sure Asterius would pitch and Theseus would catch.
It'd just blow hot air
Even though, you know, Theseus actually throws and Asterius actually smacks with a heavy stick
If I correctly picked up what was put down that's some shade
I'm only talking about baseball
Get your head out of the gutter
Anyhow
Dear SGG, all I want for Christmas is more of this game.
So please give us a climb up Olympus
Or some Titan gates with bosses and special boons
What do you even mean by guest gods? Like originally mortals who later became gods? Because the only gods I can see that applying to are like Hercules, maybe ||Chiron, if you count being made into a constellation as being deitified||?
Achilles is still fully mortal and died for good, he's just serving Hades as a shade. Another non-god aspect is ||Talos, who's literally just a robot, pretty far away from a god.||
More aspects
1 or 2 new enemies per floor
Hephaestus must be pretty pissed Daedalus gets all the credit as the craftsman in this game
His only mention is from Aphrodite mentioning cheating on him 
@amber cloak no I mean like other cultures
Well a very normal human person being dubbed war god is pretty badass
Exaggeration
But badass
Oh yeah I mean ||Guan Yu|| is generally regarded as a complete badass
GY was quite literally the greatest general/warrior in ancient Chinese history
Lou bu
he is the de facto god of war for Chinese mythology but he was a real person
Warrior yes, general bit is a bit contested haha
well Lv Bu was a man of questionable moral compass
The best compass
But he was loyal to his brothers.
Which is (to some) all that really mattered.
Though, not a good general.
yeah lol Guan Yu lost his life for some highly questionable tactical decision
and was captured once long before that for pretty much the same reason
But he was loyal and stuck to his values
And a supreme badass (according to the legends anyways)
yeah which cant be said for Lv Bu so
Yeaaaah
Guan Yu literally demand a release from Cao Cao his previous capturer after working for him for awhile
so he could return to his master
hey guys much as i enjoy three kingdoms history this is more suited for #off-topic-discussion :)
true!
So if this game had exclusive bosses like Shovel Knight would Zag fight Kratos?
I know of 1
And not super hidden just takes a while to be able to fight
||Charon|| and ||Tiny Vermin||
rare, to be precise
Are they that rare?
Had me in the first half
I see it maybe 1/10
Pretty sure all the mini bosses in that area have relatively equal rarity
I've run into that one plenty
Goat rarest for me
zeus special, artemis attack and stack % attack and crit
keepsake can be any, if you are good with it then butterfly, otherwise zeus/artemis to force the core boons
aight
just curious is zeus special better than artemis special + heartrend?
gives you some aoe potential and then pairs well with Jolted
Aphro special is also viable
nothing wrong with it
oh ok ive just been noticing more and more people using zeus special and i was wondering if it was developing to be the new meta or something
cant gift on Switch so buy them a 25 USD eshop code
thx mate
Best it says is "download codes for select games can be purchased through store.nintendo.com" which doesn't sell Hades at all
||Kaboom released sisyphus and now i have bouldy||
oh ye btw for ||rama|| bow do i just dash and spam light atks or do i fully charge it
I know this isn't gameplay related I just can't believe there's literally no way to gift Hades on switch for it's sale price.
buy that amount of eshop code and gift it that way
ninty has never had a way to digitally gift games on its platform
unfortunately if you want to gift hades you just have to do it the dumb way and send an e-giftcard or something
Gift card is only $20 or $50 though, right?
https://www.nintendo.com/giftcards/ - apparantly 10, 20, 35 and 50
it's about buying Hades so it's about Hades
hmm
point blank shot
or perfect shot
bow 4
the third option is chain shot but i dont thats good
I would pick point blank or chain
Remember that chain also triggers shared suffering
chain all the way for hidden bow
i reached asphodel and went into the mine's found a singing woman and she is offering me ||ambrosia delight , pom porridge and refreshing nectar|| wut should i choose?
all 3 works, if you have the boons you want for your build/weapon use 1 or 2
otherwise 3 is a good option
hidden bow OP
I'm in Canada. Turns out that's completely different only $20 or $50 and Amazon is somehow OOS. On digital gift cards. WTH.
Congrats!
||later||
i defeated the ||hydra|| on my 1st attemp and wiped to meg like 5 times before defeating it
wut-
how-
aaaaaaaaaand I didn't know I would fight the man (god?) himself so now I got killed eff
||yes, but later, talk to dad more||
||are diamonds useful bec i just got its bounty-||
||talk to dad he'll let you know||
||ok||
||i mean in my codex it says if i give nectar again to my dad he will unlock a hidden slot but he never gives me an chance||
||gotta defeat him more||
||talk to him more (which is the universal answer to all the "why it doesnt happen" in the game)||
|| then u get something from him ||
||got it||
||nah u cant give nectar before u beat him||
||i only managed to give him nectar once before i beat him and then after i beat him 10 times for the true ending i was able to give him nectar whenever and got the sigil of thedead||
is hades part of dungeon crawler genre?
I just failed a 32 heat run cause I sold my jolted 
consider to be*
hades is a roguelike action game
Steam recced me Darkest Dungeon because I played a lot of slay the spire and hades, for what it’s worth
although you can argue roguelike is a subgenre of dungeon crawler itself
orpheus just started playing a song and I can’t move
like when a cat sits in your lap
why is defeating meg with a rail so hard but with a lvl 1 chiron aspect is so ez-
i thought lvl 1 chiron is trash
It's not trash, just underwhelming
o
i rlly like the chiron aspect ngl i might use it over the shield
One of us, one of us, one of us

I’m trying to beat Mr Sir with poseidon aspect sword + artemis boons but it’s not working out
it should be fine tho right
unluckily not getting exit wound so
lv 1 chiron cant even apply a full stack of dio hangover so
i have enough blood for lvl 2 is it a big increase or just more dmg?
chiron transcends past level 3
so lvl 2 is just meh
but it really shines at 4 or max
hera is a much better option at lower levels
with the downside of being a bit harder to build around
save up to get chiron up to lv 4
welp imma have to defeat meg with a bunch more different weapons since i cant rlly beat the game rn
check the trader every run too
yeah im saving up 10 nectar for more diamonds
sometimes he sells blood for cheap
and by cheap u mean?
15 keys for 1 blood
o damn ive been saving up keys i currently have 21 ish
yeah it's something you do later when you have excess resources
for now keep the keys for mirror
oh damn even if i defeat meg with every type of weapon i will still only get 6 titan bloods
get the 6, pick a weapon to upgrade, focus on beating the game with it
hera is a solid choice at lv 2
well with 6 i can get lvl 3 chrion aspect
kk lvl 3 chiron it is
zag bow lv 5, artemis attack, double shot, spam dash power shot
Weapon choice is less important to your first win than to a lesser degree grinding out the mirror
And to a greater extent just getting better at the game by practice
If you aren't getting hit, even with lower DPS you can still win.
Spear, bow and shield are the easiest weapons to get your first clear with imo
(No tanking hits required.)
it's not like there is a time limit (on your first clears anyway) so you can just chip away
well i mean i dont have a good way to grind darkness then choose the weapon that has the 20% more darkness and choose darkness if available in the run
most of the core mirror upgrades are cheap
2nd DD is probably the most expensive one at 500
get that and extra HP and you are pretty much good to go
well i used alot of my darkness on stubborn defence its 600 and everytime u die in a chamber u get 30% of ur health back and every next chamber u go it resets
yeah that's not a good pick for first clears
stubborn is more of a thing for endgame
get chthonic vitality, 2nd DD, +1 dash, +50 HP
well in my runs i got more then 1k darkness and can reset with keys so what do u think i should go for?
those are about 1300
oh if you can reset now reset
get 2nd DD, +3 heal per chamber and as much extra starting HP as you can
if you have any spare get boiling blood, family favorite
anyways ty for the advice
rocket lawnchair
for some reason not all of the fish show up in my codex, does anyone know why?
have you caught all the fish?
what do you mean? do fish you already caught show up as undiscovered?
ye!!
idk then
the only one i havent gotten is the elysium legendary
even caught all the chaos feesh
oh yeah i was gonna ask about that
do the fishing points look different in chaos or something
because i havent found any
no, they look the same, they’re just pretty rare
hmm
i wish cosmic egg worked like light of ixion and vice versa
just for consistency
@stark onyx if your fish aren’t showing up in the codex you can go to #h1-tech-support and maybe you’ll be able to figure out what’s up with that there
god i remember playing hades for the first time and like
i remember my friend telling me about duo boons
and i saw a trial of the gods room and i was like omg a duo boon!!! and aphrodite killed me

I think one of my best memories of the game is just struggling at meg at first and then slowly getting through the fight more often, and then getting to Ash and learning that, and eventually getting through to Hydra and clearing
And just those first runs of discovery
guys imeg's other sister has ||replaced meg|| so can i use my normal weapons to defeat her or use my otheer weapons which i havent defeated meg with
the furies share he same bounties.
riP
Pain
I think my fondest hades memory was finally beating meg and just powering all halfway to theseus
My Hades experience is pretty different to that; I beat meg first try|| and got to the second hydra phase||, next life I died to meg, next few died to minibosses with their armor, then I learned to read them and died to|| hydra ||a few more times, and now I got to ||ellisium|| 3 times in a row out of 14 attempts|| and am learning to read Theseus and dealing with the minotaur charge||
And I learned the easy way that picking a bunch of minutaur hearts is very useful|| for just tanking the hidra's second phase wave attack||
centaur hearts are so good
i remember like. my hades friends holding my hand through meg and then i just went megaerahydratheseus and they were like WHAT
can i just say i love that shades go
when you walk through them it's so funny to me
I remember being stuck dying in asphodel for a few runs after losing dd to meg and then one run i came all the way to the final boss,meeting all 3 bosses apart from meg for the first time
My favorite is when the Wretched Broker makes the board, if you interact with it he goes 
aww
I click it every time
I like to spend some time besides Hades, watching the audience, and hear the shades cry when he reject their request, and giggle when he accepts.
Shades are too funny
i want to confess also that waking hypnos is funnier than it should be
he's so shook whenever zag passes
If you don't buy anything he goes 
Oh yes, or the guy in ||Hades's room|| will frown if you don't have enough materials.
I'd like to hug the shades
And || We need to be able to give nectar to the Good Shade too. ||
I wish
I think it's important context that when I started, there was no Elysium. All the weapons were weaker and all the bosses were stronger as well, so getting past meg was a large task
does hunting blades stack with demeter-ares duo?
The fury sisters are p interesting
Against the purple/calm one I'm all for it
...then the angery comes
And its just
Primary mission: kill
wow i took the final boss from 100 to 0 with just my cast
like... without picking them up again.
ares legendary is so strong
At last we come to the final door of the RPS Advent Calendar. Behind this is our game of the year, and you know what? It’s been a tough journey to get here. We’ve been through several different realms. Many beasts and several family friends have attacked us. Our dad has been weirdly unsupportive about […]
Woohoo!!
Maybe they'll add one soon! 
Guys, which one should I choose for bow? Daedulus Hammer..
1 ) Explosive Shot
2) Sniper Shot
3) Triple Shot
Which bow?
Thought there's only 1 bow in the game. Sorry i am new
Then I would take explosive.
Okie.
Dash attack to make up for the slower draw speed.
Sure.
When you clear a countdown room with ||Chaos's inferno-bomb curse||, are the enemies supposed to ||throw their bombs|| when the timer runs out? It seems like sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. It's like impossible not to avoid taking damage.
It seems like a bug because technically you should be invulnerable once the timer runs out anyway...
I feel like Rare Crop choosing (Epic) Life Affirmation is a bit short-end of the stick.
Not the worst, but not at all what I would've chosen...
I have 6 boons and Eurydice still managed to upgrade the 2 useless ones. I should have sold them, damn.
bruh
Tempted to die to Megaera on purpose just to get more of Hypnos' simpy dialogue
artemis best girl
^
got hades today and damn the game is fun
New to Hades. Keyboard and Mouse, or Controller? What's recommended?
controller is more popular, but there are also people who wayyy prefer KBM
I think KBM gives advantages in a few specific cases but generally controller is more popular.
I just do 100% keyboard
So they're both good, not one necessarily more preferred than the other.
Yeah
Like if you look at speedrunners, some are on KBM others on controller, and there's no clear advantage
Well, almost none.
Nice, jumping in now! Thanks for the quick response.
Gods-speed!
may the gods grant you swift and safe runs :)
Oh neat, if Discord knows you're playing a game it says where you're at.
Part of me refuses to gift Zeus purely out of spite
What did he do to you
it's zeus
Zeus stole my boyfriend
Sorry to hear that
Christmas!
25th of decemter!
using steam achievement manager on hades is ok right?
Zeus tricked Kratos!
gotta agree with hades that zeus ||has quite the magestic beard||
is kratos anywhere in this game btw?
Not that I know of.
Given SGG family friendly contents (kinda), unlikely Kratos reference
why is being family friendly an issue when dealing with kratos?
btw way what site has the best collection of general Greek myth lore?
because I'm sick of using just wikipedia to quickly check every reference, especially now that I started playing Fenyx too
Did you play any of the GoW before the PS4 one?
my hades keeps crashing :"(
i played on psp looong ago
Yeah... God of War with the kid is very tame compared to the OG GoW where he hunted down the Olympians and murdered his way to the top.
Kratos doesnt exist in actual greek mythology
it's an original character for the GoW series
doubt SGG would go all the way to reference him given the game isnt even on PS4/5
wait, really?
Yeah
Wiki is about your best bet tbh.
Try the fixes in #h1-tech-fixes first and if that doesn't help, post a message in #h1-tech-support
It's fine, try and explore the game
stupid pc hades doesnt work
i got to the 2nd area though and died to the boss thats cool
Oh man I wish I can help re the Greek myth sites one. Overly Sarcastic Productions has videos about Greek myths.
There's also books, like a lot of them. Tbh this game made me wanna read more about the Orphic.
Hi
So I have hades on switch as well
But for some reason i cannot play my switch save file on the pc
I have cross saves enabled
theoi
Welcome to the Theoi Project, a site exploring Greek mythology and the gods in classical literature and art. The aim of the project is to provide a comprehensive, free reference guide to the gods (theoi), spirits (daimones), fabulous creatures (theres) and heroes of ancient Greek mythology and religion.
Happy holidays guys...this f game, 100 hours on switch and still to complete the post game, what an awesome game.
Hooo wow
I haven’t really gotten an actual answer on this question, but just because you guys talked about God of War I wanted to ask it here. Are we able to play previous games on the PS5? Like for example ps3 and 2 games etc
I know ps4 games work
can't help you w that bro im a pc gamer
I mean same but I like exclusives as well on PlayStation
cough the witcher 3 cough
this discussion belongs in #video-games as this channel is specifically for hades :)
Sorry ares
hey tatz, merry aresmas <3

omg how and where
editing exists 
i suck at it ;-;
damn
did you make it yourself?
ye
fantastic
...o
o no
the urge to do something stupid
its calling me
i see the ||borrow|| option in the shop

Do it
dnd has taught me what will happen
Just. DO IT.
You know you want to
bbbbbbbbb
You always need money 
Did u do it tho
first time i did that i got slapped in the head and died like the idiot i am
hey guys
||charon is the strongest boss||
odds or evens
Odds are 3 and even is 2? (dunno in English)
yeah
1-10 = do it
11 - 20 = dont
/o/
that was a pretty low check tho :D
hello
Probably best to ask in spoiler channel
i see
Well, || he slaps your face with a paddle, no wonder it hurts a bit ||
die to charon so you can get the voice line from hypnos suggesting the big brain idea of talking to him
did u live tho
(honestly i am addicted to hypnos's obtuse dialogue every time you die to something, im tempted to sabotage my runs just to hear every line)
to be honest my favourite convo is when he talks to Meg and gives her some advice
ohhh my favorite death thing was ||dying to magma on purpose, i come out the pool and zag just laughs so wholesome||
I uh. Got a switch and... then got Hades. Now on the computer and to go.
nice
i died after he hit phase 2
Finding the borrow in tarturus to lose all three dd so you can give up early in the run

finding the borrow in tart and surviving with 10HP and 0DD so you start a no-hit run 
I think the worst feeling is losing your Dd to trials
only if it's an easy trial imo
if it's a tiny room with ||demeter|| trial tho i'll be amazed if i didnt lose a DD
hello guys, how to fix my error??
The boss is invisible, i can´t see.
Sorry for my inglish, im braziliam
you may want to go to #h1-tech-support ?
it could be a gtlich where boss is perma invis stuck or something
like i got 2 bugs where the final boss is running between two places over and over again
Picking between Aphrodite and ||Demeter|| is the worst
ever had a ||demeter|| poseidon trial in a tiny tart room? it's just scary
I've lost to poseidon in the past
Choosing between a stun tracking arrow or growing vortexes
you can dash thru the arrow tho
its just extremely hard to see it in the first place
it's loud tho
You think you're keeping track of the arrow only to find out that it popped a while ago and there's a new one coming from the opposite direction
Bonjour
uh
hm
i feel like my current build
is broken as hell
...and 50% of the reason why is because i have f i v e whole dashes
Ah yes the dash goood
like i thought
i wouldnt be able to manage 5
then come me just d a s h i n g everywhere
Hermes is proud
oh maybe you can get smolderin air
ah wait nvm
i didnt notice how far you are in the screenie, my bad
Smoldering air with Athena call is meant to be
yes
hey uh...
what does ambiguity do?
nothing
I really wanna pull it off but stupid Athena keeps giving me divine dash
What's ambiguity
||bouldy boon||
Oh lol
ah
thanks bouldy
is there a random chance now with either getting that or a helpful boon?
i havent used for awhile him because i was farming nectar
Played with routine inspections or whatever that pact is along with underworld customs, actually got forced to use shackle lmao
does it really do nothing at all?
||Long ass duo boon dialogue plays only to find out the duo boon is deleted||
It's the worst pact
sometimes
the legendary chaos boon once showed up
if you get lucky it's free ||heat||
and guess what
yeetleted
exactly
Lmao if you get lucky anything is free ||heat||
not really?
Just get lucky and never step on traps
most other arent as rng based
so, what happens if you have no boons and underworld customs?
Idk
or have skill and never step on traps; it isnt purely rng based like AP
like, purge them but not in the final room
How does that even happen
Is it possible to clear a floor without getting a single boon
the fountains can spawn in regular rooms
but you have to get really lucky ith the purge fountains
Can't you purge three reroll purge three more
yes but what if you dont get the purge fountain after your last room was a boon room and the next is charon/pom already
btw, erebus on tartarus is pog
I thought erebus anywhere is the same since enemies from everywhere appear inside
cries in numbskull ||BP2 and FO2||
bp2? fo2?
||BP - Benefits Package||
Fo forced overtime
no, on elysium, some of ||mega-hades' summons|| can spawn
they can also spawn in asphodel ||erebus|| tho
but it's less scary
they are always scary ;-;
yeee
Man I hate those
gotta go tho
32 heat
When your build isn't made for insane dps and you and you see long bows or shields being summoned in final boss fight
insert crying guy meme
well ||daddio|| gotta die faster then :DDDDDDDDD
Sure but they ate my acorn
little squirrels
yeah zag is just like "yeah thx but byeeeeee"
Wdym
i had to abandon one during farming because one of the enemies bugged behind the door
if you activate a trove but leave zag talks
i like doing it for the funsies when i'm not on ||TD||
I don't like td
People call it free heat but I'd rather get heat somewhere else just go slow
how long do you usually take?
30min
thats less than 40min, ||TD1|| should still be free?
thats fine then
same here
Especially in trials
if you get below 30 comfortably just ignore the timer
yeah, you can also start the usual timer to get used to it if you want to try higher heat
hey, imagine the ultimate dead form
a numbskull with all bp
I just keep fo2 on cause it's fun, and that keeps my heat at 6 which is more than what I need
Idek what the different BP do
fo2 feels so hurtfull with close ranged weapons

Formatted if you wanna edit your message
how'd you do that
i tried to fit it into different shifts it still wouldnt do it
yeah i did that but it turned off the spoiler for me
thats even more disgusting
Nah I just did one global spoiler after adding line breaks
line breaks?
like \n?
ahh it just deletes in the message box
i just did it
it just deletes the preview of the spoiler but still does it in the end
i didnt want to risk it because i cant un-edit as quickly
Any idea what causes these?
turning on ||BP|| in your ||pact of punishment||
Cause I know they listed as ||prophecy|| stuff
armored foes will have them randomly
||Benefits package in pact|| I turned it on for the fated list lol
i dont celebrate it
still a happy 25th of december to you <3
I wish I could play hades right now but my college decided to hold exams on 26
the start of the last week of 2020
What a holiday killer
go study what are you doing here D:
Good thing for you the 12 days of Christmas start after Christmas
i wish bouldy could dual boon ;-;
And there’s still New Years
Lol there's exams on 1st of Jan too
Ouch
what a great start into 2021 o.o
all fun and games till the speed buffed teleporting flame wheels show up
with ||FO2|| 
imagine not having the well boon to nuke them
(I know the pain)
and imagine being such a PITA there is literally a specific boon for you
imagine not having seen that well boon in your last 20 runs 
died to asterius
Em3?
Hey guys!
32 heat
hallo
||extreme measures|| for the bosses (||em 3|| is every boss up to elysium)
statue
but why 32 for ||em3||
goooood damn it
i thought id have it in the bag with 3 death saves for the final boss prepped and a lot of buffs
p a i n and s u f f e r i n g
Ah srsly?
yeah
i was so confident i had it in the bag
then i got clipped one too many times by uh
Okay maybe i should pick Zeus someday in a Trial
ahh yeah annoying :/
He gettin pretty done with my nonsense
also his second phase
Never.
Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer
the thing is
In my defense
when suddenly he shoots the beams in all directions
me:
wait
wha-
z a a a a a a a-
He keeps showing up with either Aphrodite or Poseidon
And im never making either of those mistakes again
Poseidon is the worst to fight for me
Aphrodite is worse
Charmmmm
She shoots homing stun arrows
shoots a tracking heart at you that stuns you for a while if you get hit
homing Heart shot that stuns you
damn
its easy if youre fast
It tracks you VERY hard
Yeah it's annoying
Even more than the Poseidon Wave
yeah ig i dont wanna mess with her then
Poseidon wave is fine
Nope :D
It appears once in every 10 sec
What does Zeus do again?
Bolts
Just spams the area with AoE lightning bolts
Zeus is just elysium fight without annoying dialogue
Usually on you
Ehhh yeah that's cooler
In my case it was in a tiny room on Asphodel
With 2 waves of 5 armored Inferno Bombers
Wave 2 also came with a couple armored Gorgons
So i was just kinda
Champion of elysium: has never won
Also champion of elysium: "you're mistaken if you think you'll ever make it past me black guard"
Drowning in projectiles
You gotta think that he's probably winning other fights besides Zag.
Do it or abandon run
Yknow it just now occured to me that the Trial punishments are basically the Aids being used against you with the exception of Ares and Artemis
his d a m a g e
He got that upper body strength yo
says, "Have you tried moving out of the way" 😉
Lol against who? Last i checked dad told me in the only one trying to escape @brisk trail
Their whole schtick in Elysium is to be constantly fighting, forever.
And even if he is, winning other fights doesn't mean he gets to sass on zag who's beat his ass every single time
Asterius complains that few people are willing to spar with him.
Yeah the game also says that Zag is the only person stupid enough to take on ||Charon||
Like asterius gets it, he's like dude's strong be careful
Meanwhile he's like, ha watch me win pleb
Since yknow, ||Cthonic God||
FLIP THE COIN
NO BALLS
COWARD
stupid is the right word
FEAR IS FOR THE WEAK

ok now we chill
he ain't afraif he smart
according to my buffs
Alright, let's cool it please
you are weak?
i am w e k
nice
i only had one boon/buff going for me
You know I never pass on the bag anymore cause ||nyx told me Charon enjoys it because no one else spars with him and he's lonely||

not counting the mirror
Don't do it for the monies do it for the best boy
Oh noooo poor baby
also some day you gotta win twice in a row
I have my main story that's like maxed out, i always fight there
I broke a 9 win streak from doing ||hades extreme measures|| fight
But i started a new one where im baby boi and never ever fight there
Oiii man sorry
I got really bad luck with boons and hammers that run
Why would you want to remove precious 
thats a minor concern
I once tried demeter and Aphrodite and it sucked hard
Tis is fine after you learn her patterns
dont do it, our precious tisiphone handholders would be sad
She just charges straight at you and chills there for an hour
Watch out for the stun basically
Alecto just doesnt click in my brain tho
Alecto fight the real boss is the blades and traps, not alecto
Alecto is scary with those thingies
meg with alecto smoke is actually pretty annoying
Meg and Than are the best characters
I just eat everything and spaghetti
Alecto has the worst room
her darn blades
Alecto is also mean
i get scared when i have ||em1|| with ||tis making the room smaller and smaller and alecto just shoting her huge blades anyways||
Makes zag very self-conscious :(
Meg is the most annoying support fury
Agreed
Meg making the bullet spam behind you while you fight the main Fury
aaaaa
Lernie’s ||extreme measures|| room is really hard though especially when there’s six hydra heads
meg making the whole tiny tis arena her whip area
Big circle appears and you wait for the blast, but it's actually meg just whipping around for half an hour
cries in ||HS||
You can block her whip with the shield if you use it
Hs?
||save your battie and greater call for 5 heads||
Heightened Security i assume
So much magma...
See I'd block it if wasn't expecting an unblock able aoe blast which is also something meg does
One time on ||em hydra|| I had a chaos boon that made my attack damage me so I was stuck with default cast and aspect of Zeus special
||hightened security: traps and lava do +400% damage||
Funny how meg goes from the biggest joke of the solo Furies to the most lethal of the Assists
good lord
Meg> tis solo
You can fight meg while half asleep
You can fight tis full asleep
tis at least asks you to dash sometimes 
Her room is so small that if you tape down your attack button she will get hit regardless of where you are lmao
Also she just chills in place after dash so you don't even have to chase her
having deflect on literally anything does so much damage when tis enters her bullethell mode 
When can I start calling Hydra Lernie
Also tis is easy
Especially with shield
Also divine dash
And you basically won already
But even if you don’t
Super easy
I love it when I get piercing shot and the one that gives you 500% damage at the full charge on shield
600 damage without crit combined with Artemis’s attack damage up + crit chance
2000+ damage with crit towards end of game with other attack up boons
Crits are really good especially if you can get the base damage up
are they still updating this game?
oh awesome i thought this game was done being updated
large updates yeah, balance changes/fixes no
I like crits when I'm doing a lot of attacks
pressure points alone is so smexy
duddde
lambent plume stronkest keepsake
confirmed
lambent plume + zag fists + hermes dodge boon = 50% dodge chance ggg
i dont know that
but imma do it right now :D
also man, this ||arthur|| aspect is pure cheat
Just call it hidden aspect so you never have to use spoilers
Are you saying demeter does 1k at max?
for me ye
xD
just cleared it
max i hit was 1k
and i had the +100% on dash upper
Ye aphro + explosive upper does that
so thats 500 if not
But Artemis prolly goes higher
i had arte
epic one at that
it donno, it just felt super lake luster
its lvl 4 only tho
No heart rend?
every weapon can do mad damage
If you get piercing shot + Minotaur rush + Artemis attack boon + other attack increasing boons you can too 2000+ damage in one hit
except zag spear
i did 2k+ with fists a few times at the final boss
Dio attack+ arte special + aphro dash is the way to go for demeter
Prolly
base damage?
highest base dmg is hidden sword third swing
idc, just highest number possible with special
yeah hidden sword is greatest base damage
or normal
Hestia reload comes close
I love Twin fists with demeter aspect+support fire
support fire op
Doesn't support fire have a cool down
but i like rails better with it
Haha gloves go brrr
no
nop
support fire + zeus lighting strike
Nope it don't
Pretty sure someone confirmed support fire has a cool down
Has low base dmg and bad scaling
thats whats so incredibly nice about it
Still very very fun
nope
you can spam cast to try and see
I can confirm it DOES NOT since I used it a couple days ago with fists
Technically demeter
im cursed with ares bayblades
spoiler the name and no
the strongest by themselves are ares hunting blades if i remember correctly
Hard to use effectively tho
yeah ||demeter|| is considered a spoiler kinda
Since when?
since you only get her later
Really?
Fair enough then
you can only get her when reaching ||the overworld||
I thought fists were too slow to trigger the cool down
Since Zeus also works pretty well with fists
this was cheat run
And he has cool down
that must be the tiniest cooldown ever
Well yea we were discussing chiron
Which is comparable to demeter fist special
Cause dem fist special hits all at once
you can literally spam cast and get 3 support fire arrows
if you dont want to spoiler yourself you can go to #h1-builds-and-combat and #h1-story-discussion
Which cast are you talking about
normal without boon
That's super slow though
if you have the mirror upgrade you have 3
the sleep cast is great if only it was faster abit
it isnt super slow
but for me, || demeter || cast + the chill effect on them
Dude the animation takes ages compared to what's considered a fast weapon
meme beam!
sigh
if there is also the exposion at 10 stacks
gg
too many good stuff compared to other casts
Something to be said about these spoilers not actually doing anything cause no one specifies what it's spoiling so you just gotta click on it to find out if it's a spoiler for you or not
tbh, i never seen this system in any other game discord i ever been in
but whatever
there is hades for new players, which i suppose more fit if u want to learn the game without spoinling
but whatever
tbf hades story takes a long time to compeletly reveal itself
like you have to go well over 100 runs generally before you finish it all so it kinda makes sense
this channel gets used by more newplayers than the other hades channels for some reason
hence why the description still says "no spoilers here"
u dont want to ask in empty channel
yeah but you'd assume new players would be more likely to be used
Im just so bad
since it is always bustling and is literally for them
at this game
Well you can't change the fact that new players like to use this channel so you just gotta make this channel new player friendly and have a different chat with spoilers allowed
