god, should've done that first
Andddd the way Zag goes ||"zap!" everytime he uses special||
So, Hi. I must say, this game is kinda the most fun I've had with a rouguelike in a LONG time. SG did amazingly on it.
it's just the first hidden aspect I got (don't know how tho)
I think that its better than it looks, its more for those who are really skilled at the game.
It's always the first hidden aspect.
I feel like I need at least 3 speed buffs from Hermes for it
oh, I see then
I avoid ares boons like the plague
Whyyy
I hate them so much and I don't know why
Get massive spin and it's exclusive hammer
Yeah, his spins (especially with that boon that sucks them in) are awesome
Ares boons are great the problem is that he hs a lot of trouble in already existing builds
and his duo with Aphrodite is not bad
Malphon's hidden aspect combined with any dash boon is so good
You only have battle rage and urge to kill and neither is particularly expectacular
Might just be me but I had a run with malphon's hidden aspect + dionysus' dash boon and it felt awesome
Honestly, Malphon's Zagreus aspect is SO strong, dodgechance is a blast
Ares dash can be deadly, literally dash all over the place to kill everything.
If I only partially clear a run with a weapon at 0 heat, then go to 1 heat, will the remaining bounties be availt still if I turn down the heat?
I might be short of time for the final area, 49 seconds after Elysium boss and I'm at TD2.
I'll try my best.
what are the chances of me finding the king vermin in the satyr tunnels
4 minutes left for ||Hades||, I probably wont make it.
But who knows, my current boons are actually interesting, higher crit chance based on poison stacks, Artemis boon that fires arrow on poisoned enemies, high tolerance and another boon that increase damage when inside Dio cast.
I'll have to go rough and rush, no choices.
2:24 left in phase 2 I might be able to win but few hp left.
Well I died.
I'm gonna have to go faster now.
to reach maximum affinity with an NPC do you have to max out their companion if they have one?
no
Playing with heat is the only way to get ambrosia apart from trading for it at the house
ok
After a while with Thanatos keepsake I finally decided to change, is Thanatos keepsake still that good later on ?
you can potentially get 2 a run if you fish in greece
I usually get between 20-30% damage boost from it on my runs
about fishing is there a trick for timing it cuz i suck
if youre getting faked out by the visuals, just go for it off of the sound. Its hard to miss
Someone told me about the visual and it actually helped me.
whats the visual tho, like what should i look for
a cool idea for fan art would be each owner of an infernal arm with their aspect
that would be so cool
I always use vibrations from my controller for fishing and just look away from the screen entirely
I really wanna see what demeter looks like with the twin fists of malphon
wait looking away helps?
It really helps me because there's a clearer difference between vibrations and sound than there is in visuals
With visuals it might take a very small bit to realize you get a catch
thx
But if you get used to it with vibration or sound it's always instantly clear
i actually use both but i only pay attention to the visuals
I could barely get perfect catches until i tried looking away
changing the subject, how come some people who use aspect of chaos get the shields to shoot in every direction not just in front of them
I wasn't really into Ares dash or cast before but lately I'm really starting to enjoy them.
His cast is really nice when you stunlock mobs into it.
Also really nice to quickly kill 3 hydra heads in a row.
my vibrations arent strong enough thats the problem
Then going for the sound works well too
yea the last time i got a fish was like 20 runs ago lmao
I found this has helped me.
Apart from if the bob goes under at the very beginning, the bob will go under about 2 seconds after it bobs around in the water.
2 might be a stretch, I recommend you time it
But that is always true.
If there is a large gap of time after the bait bobs around in the water, then the next time it will never go in the water
The timing between the bait bobbing around and going in is always very short
dont you get worse rewards tho for the 2 second one
No, that is not at all what I mean
You can only catch the fish once the bait goes completely under water. I was explaining some patterns that can help you get the timing down
ok thanks
but what i said about worse rewards i was just bringing up its not that i misunderstood
Rarity all depends on how quickly you react to the bait going under water
When it goes underwater does not affect rarity.
even with the 2 second one
Yep. Rarity only depends on reaction time
Even if you react as quickly as humanly possible you can still not get the best rarity
When it goes underwater is a bit rng, but I gave some good tips to figure it out
False. Rarity only depends on reaction time
Really? I thought there was still some rng
Nope.
is hades's call useful?
It makes you invisible, so enemeies can't see you. That seems pretty okay
but when u attack they can see you
From the wiki:
Less than 0.34 second: Perfect catch. Guaranteed to catch a Rare fish. 1/21 (≈ 4.76%) chance to catch a Legendary fish
0.34 second to 0.68 second: Catch. 1/21 chance to catch a Rare fish.
After 0.68 second: fail with a "Too Late" message.
damn that makes fishing feel hard lol
Strange, I've caught legendary fish every time when I was fast enough
That makes me feel really lucky for catching a ||Sturgeon|| lol
I really don't think it is about chance. Like I said, I can catch a legendary every time if I am fast enough
Wait... what fish are classified as legendary?
All of the top tier fish (there are 3 tiers per biome)
Goes Common, Rare, Legendary (in the game's terms)
So Scyllascion, flame eater, sea mare, Stonewhal, and sturgeon?
Yea, I catch Stonewhal's almost every run. It can't be a game of chance...
It feels much higher then 5% chance for legendary fish, doesn't it
Yeah, I get a lot of Perfect Catches too, not sure how to account for that despite having seen the numbers myself
I don't even think it's a chance. That doesn't sound right at all with my 100+ escape attempts
It's not guaranteed, though, because a perfect catch can still net you a rare fish
That's bizarre
Are those numbers taken from the files or from experimentation
Someone told me the figure was data mined
But that was hearsay
I don't know where the true source came from
Maybe they accidentally shifted a decimal one place over
5% is just wrong.
Sounds good to me xD
I think it's vice versa. Legendaries come up very often if you get the perfect catch
I think it is your answer but flipped, 80/20
In order to actually get a good idea, we need to record 1000+ results
Law of Large Numbers Baby!
The more data you collect, the closer your experimental values will match the theoretical (actual) value
If we can get enough people to hop on this, I think we can figure out the actual percentage.
@waxen juniper I had 2 runs with TD2, I was short of time on both runs, the first went to ||Hades|| and second one I died in the styx because I was rushing too much and taking more damage than usual.
Good try Laumi. I don't think I've done TD2 yet: I like to take at least a little time :p
I could have finish the first run but I died at 2 mins left in phase 2.
I probably had enough time to finish if it wasn't for low hp.
It's okay. You put up a good fight :)
Yeah, 4 minutes left when I started the fight.
TD2 actually brings a challenge.
Compared to TD1.
On top of that I switched Thanatos keepsake to Hermes one so another reason to rush lol.
I cant imagine TD3.
Then don't 😆
Yeah, while Thanatos keepsake made me more careful about avoiding to be hit, Hermes keepsake is probably going to make me faster at finishing battles.
Yeah I wont attempt it anytime soon.
Well, you most certainly aren't wrong
Ive always wanted to try that one but I always just go pom blossom instead
It was fun trying to finish battles as fast as possible especially when seeing the timer close to end and still finish in time.
I just dont like tight deadline at all. Even if td 1 is easy
I've only done TD3 once but I could've cleared it a few times I didn't have it set
With fists sub 20 isn't too hard to get
Once I've posted my save from stream to switch, can I disable syncing?
so how come each fight in the satyr tunnels counts as an encounter for well items but not for the plume?
I assume it's so you can't cheese that one achievement for getting a certain amount on the Plume
Bruh! This is the first time I've lost a DD in tarturus in a long time!
How do you unlock is there no escape in fated list?
You escape
oh ok
im trying
but
hes so hard
tried 2 times already but everytime 2. phase comes im dead
reminder ||hades|| is a late-game spoiler
Just keep at it you'll get there
oh its endgame? im there in 3 hours of gamepla
3 hours????? jesus christ
Dang that's really good
on my 10. attempt i reach him and also on 11.
Wow
i got my first clear at run 14
I had my first clear at about 20 attempts
but i didnt beat it still so its not that good
i cleared it on my first run
i had mine at about 27 attempts 
fresh file runners be like
is death defiance good mirror upgrade btw like it cost a lot
definitely
it's gonna be really helpful with the final boss and i'd recommend you also get lucky tooth from skelly
It's one of the best
Only mirror upgrade you should get before it is greater reflex
im using collar
collar is also great
That's a good keepsake for starting out
Once you get better at the game you won't need as much health and you'll probably swap it out for god keepsakes to get better builds
chthonic purse from hypnos is also a good go-to early on when you're still not swimming in obols at the start of a run
there's more :))
and is last weapon good? or i should stick with that op spear 😄
it's kinda.. divisive
it depends
i personally love it to death
there's no definitive "best weapon" they're all equally great
You mean the worst weapon right
||Hera|| with dio cast is glorious
i feel like spear is way better then sword
rail with zeus attack is also amazing
Except for bow
Lol
Only time I can bare using bow is with a really good chiron build
Even then it just isn't fun to play
especially ||Hera and fully upgraded Chiron, its bonkers||
my first run was 50 minutes in game time with the shield lmao
it was like my 6th attempt and i didnt want to lose
soi i played
very safe
after that i didnt get 2nd win for a couple more attempts since i didnt want to play that safe again
I got my first 14 wins with shield before I switched to fists lol
What about ||chill go boom at 10 stacks||?
Reminds me of a shield build I had that was 600 attack damage and 2000+ crit
chill burst at 10 stacks is crazy
Minotaur rush + power shot + a crap ton of attack buff
especially is you have ||demeter||'s aid and that boon that makes the lasers apply chill, i was immediately burning through everything since i also got artemis' duo
My most glorious run was ||hera bow|| with Dio cast, ||with +cast from arty and chaos|| so in total 5 cast
Load it up and watch wretches go boom
my best run was a gatling gun build with rail that had max zag aspect, swift strike, thunder strike and finally ricochet shot
its crit power
like you get heartbreak strike and some good artemis stuff
so much damage
my gun was plowing through waves of enemies and i also had jolt dealing even more damage
that sounds very good
on top of that i also had smouldering air, dio's aid, billowing strength and second wind
so along with an electric ricochet gatling gun i also could spam call to constantly give myself buffs and deal extra hangover damage
wow

finally
Because he ran 3 weapons in a row @brisk trail
ooh
cant wait to watch that after work
@opaque nexus cheers mate! here's a nectar 

So.... I just got chained skewer with a doom special 😆
skewer of doom
just lost an entire run at final boss after just before starting fight in shop cord from controller touched track pad and isntatly scrolled down and picked wrong boon isntea dof one I needed, screwing me over really bad and leaving me without an attack boon and there was no way to quit back without leaving room whichd be too late so outta desperation I force quit and it just erase dthe whole run, figured I might as well ask if anybody had any genius idea of "fixing" that though even save editing seems like a mess as I don't know if I would've won and am not sure of what my exact setup was, (had 250 health and three death revives though) before I just drop the game entirely
This chained skewer doom run was nuts! I never thought of doing it, but it was so much fun!!
What does hades' call even do
Makes it to where enemies can't see you
I'm not sure how long the half gauge is, but the greater call vanishes you for the whole time
Guys I have something to say: Bouldy is a big stupid rock.
NO
HE IS BEAUTIFUL


FIRST CLEAR
Please don't try to evade the swear filter (but also congrats)
yoo congrats
oh it shows for others? my bad :P
Proxy sees all sometimes
The mods also see all 👁️
I can imagine the adrenaline is high!
Who said that?

🙈
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i literally was like
okay within 5 tries tonight
im getting it
first try
i reached ||2nd phase|| twice last night but died both times
im happy for you even tho i have no clue what you did
i beat the game!
oooooo
first clear as it's called
theres alot more story
oh yeah i know
or you will never leave
but 
i didn't plan on leaving :D
anyways thanks for celebrating with me yo
back to the grind
||i got so close to killing hades the 2nd time smh||
Do what?
If you mean the edit, that was all them. No one can edit someone else's message
you cant spoil other's messages but you can delete
so do you use compact mode or not?
I use compact mode, yes
I'm sorry, Bouldy 🥺
I am 108 hours in and I can confirm: there is no escape
Just go to the surface and don’t proceed
Then the game becomes Stardew Valley. You do the gardening and you fish.
Never go back again
If it were that easy
for future reference to anybody who ends up in situation like I did, at least on epic (on there cause my brother got it before) the save from before is still in files as temp save 1 ie I was able to fix it despite having alreay ended up back at house with whole run gone
Apart from the controller going screwy, I am not sure I really understood what happened.
The lack of punctuation made it a bit difficult to follow what you were saying
Essentially they're recapping the save recovering steps in #h1-tech-fixes
For future reference to anybody who ends up in situation like I did, at least on Epic, the save is called profile1_temp.sav so I was able to recover it despite having to come back at house with whole run gone.
Translation
Thanks FoxHope
Basically they got a successful save recovery. This works for both Epic and Steam, not just Epic.
Don't know for Switch because Ninty is expensive to buy games from.
You mean you don't own three copies of Hades, Fox? 
To Tartarus with you!
I got 4, actually.
I got Hades the Prequel, Hades Tactics, Hades 2k17, and Hades.
(recycled joke don't @ me)
I wasn't going to say it, but then you did so...
yeah, new comedic materials are hard to come by ok
I beat Theseus and Asterius--again

This time my game didnt crash, and I spotted Shade-chan too 
Whats the difference between $300 and $100 pom?
300 upgrades twice
Or thrice, if you have that Posiden/Aphrodite duo
Ah I see. Also small rooms + Tempest Strike + Serrated Point is stupid strong with the wall bash
Damn almost beat ||Hades right at the end there too||
i just noticed you can activate sword's special and then dash midway through to shift your position right before the smash
+900% armor damage on dash strike with Breaching Cross + fists--this is stupid
I have the game on switch, do i need to buy it in the computer to play it the or is there a way around?
so you own the game on switch and want to play it on the computer?
You have to buy it again on PC
if thats the right interpretation then there is no in game way through hades to do that
Sorry
but I have seen people attaching their switch to a monitor and somehow using a mouse and keyboard
It's worth buying again tho tbh. Good game
I haven't the foggiest idea how that works but maybe ask a nintendo switch dedicated server
Once you get on computer you don't even need a new save since the game support cross platform play as off v1.0
It's really nice because it removes the special cooldown
Ayyy, I'm the Featured House Servant!!
||how to unlock cerb 7th heart, ive pet him so many times||
I think I unlocked the heart once I got the first ending
That is one I don't know for sure though
mmh well i just did epilogue so idk lol
Then I don't remember honestly
anyone know what the EM3 music track is?
I really don't understand that boon
it's 100 damage
and it clears chill
really doesn't seem worth the loss of mitigation
by 40%
It's 100 damage burst. Arctic blast is quite nice if you have high dps
If you have fast weapon, it's like burst damage every few seconds
And chill is not too difficult to reapply
and since we were talking about ||chiron||, reapplying it is super easy
I think Byan's comment was a bit more general, but you're not wrong.
demeter's revenge boon applies full chill stacks btw
so pretty strong with arctic blast
I keep forgetting about revenge boons
"Beware the winter's cold" 
Polar Bears: 😎
I picked it up after a bunch of other boons, and the crystals on cast made the amount of damage pulses that it did quite strong
i'm more general on it
i mean even on fast firing weapons
i prefer the 40/40 slowdown
since that's much more effective against bosses
||guan yu|| definitely takes some practice. I think I also lost on my first run with it
right at the final boss too
Did you have the acorn keepsake?
I lost to Theseus with ||Guan Yu||. Oof
It happens.
Hidden aspects tend to have a steeper learning curve imo.
Especially ||guan yu||
It's a very difficult weapon aspect. The major hp loss is very taxing
you have GY at level 5 right?
Oh for sure. But it's extremely powerful, so they had to make it harder somehow
I kept looking for Centaur Hearts the whole run. Barely got max hp at 60
GY level 5 is nice. Makes a big differencw
@drifting crest
Not only is health decreased, but all health upgrades and health gain is decreased
You can do it!
Ty ty
is V1.35966 the newest version?
It ain't
k thanks
🏴☠️
yeah pretty obvious lol
Lul
what?
Nothing
I wish you safe travel on the high seas captain
thanks
unfortunately I don't have the money to buy the game, I wish I did
its a good game
It's cool. I pass no judgement. I hope you have fun at least.
Honestly, if I were to pirate this game Id probably immediately go out and buy it because its so damn good.
I try to support the devs as much as I can. There was a period where I couldn't afford games so I get it.
does bull rush damage depend on Attack Damage
if you meant that it's affected by attack slot boons then yes
Unfortunately Hades doesnt have a demo either, so you cant really try it before buying. That being said, Ive swayed 2 people into looking into getting it over my Discord streams and fawning about it all the time.
well yes but also anything else that increases the normal attack
Can refund on steam, any game if you've owned it less than 14 days and played under 2 hours.
Honestly SGG isn't even trying to protect the game lol. No DRM no nothing. And in some sense I ... respect them for that, among many many other things.
Slightly off topic but is there official game merch?
I noticed a shopping bag icon in the main menu so I assume thats what it was.
I kinda want an Artemis body pillow. 
Yeah. You can google it.
Unfortunate haha, guess Ill have to dream
if you're determined it can be done
commission an artist for the art then find a specialised website for custom body pillows
Alternatively I could find myself an IRL Artemis 
Artemis is erm Ace. She would be an awesome friend yeah :D
I am not looking for a friend Im looking for the top tier waifu 
nyx is the top tier
I don't think Ares would be ok with it
why does he have to know
Anyway I guess Ill go search for some nectar and ambrosia irl for my would-be Artemis. Goodnight! 
goodnight?
Did someone say mods?~

Aggy 
All is well in the Underworld now
alecto >>>> meg
I'm go talk to Hypnos. 🌃
Real hot take.
Peach 
:D
ni ni Fox 
ill cuddle cerberus
you gottsa get consent first though Peach
aphrodite also counts dionysus and hermes among her side pieces lmao
I meaaaan, haven't you seen how he cuddles with anyone in #fan-works ? Pretty sure he doesn't mind, if anything it makes sleeping cozier 
is there anyone famous Aphrodite hasn't slept with tbh
poor lad
he can smash his hammer but not his wife smh
@deep pivot btw you completely disappeared from the modding server and it's pretty sad 
there are mods for this game?
it hurts that people still don't know
I've been pretty busy, I'm sorry 
You can check that out in #self-promotion if it interests you, Prosper
There's a pinned message there
I try to post the link everyday too
hell yeah it does
Add Apollo and watch people flock to that.
this reminded me of something i saw recently lol
but I'm working on Hestia already
what kind of mods are there
apparently in ancient greek art, hypnos was sometimes depicted literally sitting on sleeping people
theres one where he's very tiny and sitting on Ariadne's head
Some QoL mods so far. Contents mods are in development.
I'm there mostly for the morale boost.
can i still get achievements with mods?
look on nexusmods
Sure can
yes
Late but YES
Unlikely given past games. Also this might be completely wrong but Steam Workshop might not be the easiest thing to implement for Hades.
finally someone with fine taste
no official mod support for Hades, devs confirmed it many times
I'm scared.
Suddenly Prince 
I wish I posted this really good piece of fan art I saw the other day on tumblr. It was zag with the doom icon above his head and zag with what ever poison is called but with both he looks a tad off. For doom the piece is called wrath and you can see the anger in his eyes and for the poison it's called madness and he's looks so wicked. And both if these images have just been living in my head rent free and the concept of the whole "god boons effect zag mentally" is soooooo cool and good
@versed verge found it
Well i wanna see it
I posted it in #fan-works
Aphro is going to be lust without a doubt. Like zag is going to look really good in that one. The rest are so much harder to think of an influence
Athena might lean on the deflect to a point that it's like emotional deflect
Athena would make you more intelligent in theory but every time I get Athena boons I always get more reckless
Oh yeah, glasses zag
My guess is either Zeus or posiden will effect temper since both have been known to have awful tempers like as calm as the sky and thunderous as a storm with calm as the sea yet as destructive as it's waves
Athena watching me take stupid damage as I dash into everything with divine dash: 🤦♀️
hi
I don't know if this is the right channel for this as I've found no feedback section(which makes sense since the game is already released and award-nominated), but I was forever wondering if noone else is having issues with being unable to bulk-exchange your metacurrency. Like I save up a bunch of gems and then see that if I trade them plus the keys up I can get one last titan blood to finish upgrading the aspect. And I have to click through all 2000 of those plus all the subsequent keys and nectars conversions
use my mod Pony's Quality of Life
I just updated my drivers and now Hades is running at 40fps
Using Radeon Software 20.12.1
@waxen karma #h1-tech-support
ta
uhh i think there is a bug
i got the achievement for fully unlocking the olympians codex entries
but i didnt
lol
anyone know the interaction between loading casts to hera bow and ravenous will?
If i empty my bloodstones to hera bow, will i get the ravenous will damage already?
I got it on that sale lol
I missed it by 2 days 😢
interesting question! might ask in #h1-builds-and-combat
Ohh ayt ty!
How can i unlock administrative chambers?
Should i save up for this music that costs 3 diamonds or should I spend them on other things?? I’m too indescisive
if you have quest stuff to buy, wait for thaty
otherwise if all you have left is cosmetic, do what you want
you could trade those diamonds for ambrosia
Mmmm okie thanks i will keep that in mind
i really wanna simp for ares but his haircut is questionable hahahaha
Imagine Ares with long hair
👀
110 hours and 116 escape attempts and I have 100% Hades on Steam
Congrats thats pretty impressive
Thanks 🙂
I want to 100% the game by getting all the remaining cosmestics, which is gonna take me forever
I keep forgetting I can do that
@waxen karma and did you collect all victory messages?
I don't think you did
I have done ~60 successful clears
@waxen karma lol it's not actually in the game I'm just pranking you
it's part of my mod pony qol
Just realised that
But hey. Is your mod publically available?
Gives me more goad than just get more darkness/gemstones
Goals*
can i drop patrocle by doing a reroll in f3 ?
Oh that's a neat entry. The perfectionist in me would hate, if I couldn't get all of them though...
anyone know if Hades is getting more content (DLCs, more weapons, etc.) in the future?
or is this by all intents & purposes the finished/final game
Devs have said that they have no plans on adding any DLC
I think they answered it in the #ask-supergiant channel
Oh wait, it’s also in the #hades-faq
oh my bad i shouldve checked there first
ok Lightning Rod was definitely the right choice
just annihilated Thesius and Asterius
hi, first of all awesome game. was really thrilled to finally beat hades. Though one question remains for me: why can i not gift ambrosia yet? i filled all the nectar requirements for many characters such as skelly, dusa etc
technically if you beat the game is still counts as ||"beating hades"||
POV: you are Zagreus https://julian-jello.tumblr.com/post/639651933717708800/pov-you-are-zagreus-i-havent-finished-the-game
Does all % stacks together or are each bonus recalculated after each bonus ? Like I have 20% dodge chance from Hermes keepsake and 20% dodge chance from a boon, does that make it 40% overall ?
yes
Nice.
Thank you.
Charmed on Theseus is amazing, the gods he calls actually attacks him.
You can also get +15% dodge from max zag aspect fists
i like having fists with the plume, makes you almost unhittable
can you expand on the favors? i thought you could gift ambrosia as soon as you gift 5-6 nectars
I got 60% dodge chance that way lol
I got Aphrodite legendary boon that charms enemies from attacks that inflicts weak and I have weak on attack and special so I was often charming Asterius and Theseus.
hermes can buff your dodge too i think
Oh nice.
The best dodge you can get from Hermes boon is 25% but heroic boons are very rare
5:28 left after Elysium boss with TD2 I'll have enough time to finish the run assuming I dont die.
Idk
heroic boons are 10% right?
Only TD2 tho so I think it'll be fine.
Hope for a fast ||satyr sack||
I think lower
Yeah, even if not fast I'll probably make it, 5:28 left but I'm going to get an additional 7 minutes once I enter the Styx.
24.2% on Hermes keepsake 2 stars, that's one crazy run, its making me faster and I didn't take much damage or died compared to my 2 previous runs with TD2.
Yeah Hermes keepsake is really good if you pair it with his boon and the fists
Nice, I'll try it with fists later.
I gotta love Talos aspect special that attracts enemies, it helps a lot in the Styx with the rats to avoid going in their poison.
I also have +2 dash boon on this run so +4 total so that helped as well to go faster.
8:44 left for ||Hades||, I can take my time for the fight now.
Well I'll still go fast but I wont have to rush.
TD2 run clear, 22:31 RTA, I had 5:28 left, no death.
Nice
question: once I have everyone's hearts to the locked one am I done with Nectar and it's just Ambrosia after?
Yes
You can give people ambrosia before you have everyone to max nectar though
Almost always
yeah I'm just wondering when I'll be able to start slowly trading for diamons
Best companion?
||Thanatos imo but it’s subjective||
oops
||meg is a lot safer but has less dps||
how many diamonds does it cost for Zag to clEAN HIS HECKING ROOM?!
Lol
Thank you.
I maxed out his room first I don’t remember how much it cost
the hades vod from gdq has the most views of any vod since the skyrim one
Yes
like Bastion was big at the time but not as big as this
by a long shot
any heat 1.0 had over 300 runners
that's more than super mario 64 120 star
Without question
I still need to play Pyre and Transistor but I heard Transistor has some ... interesting design choices
Its definitely not bad by any means
@ebon grove you need to do a certain
subquest
for characters
often involving other characters or certain events
to unlock the heart
or a prophecy or certain
so you an give ambrosia
TIL you can get the damage bonus from having 2 debuffs from seperate gods on an enemy despite having only 1 from your boons.
By reflecting one of Theseus attacks on him while he is being empowered by a god with a debuff
for fishing, how does a perfect catch effect the catch?
Less than 0.34 second: Perfect catch. Guaranteed to catch a Rare fish. 1/21 (≈ 4.76%) chance to catch a Legendary fish
0.34 second to 0.68 second: Catch. 1/21 chance to catch a Rare fish.
After 0.68 second: fail with a "Too Late" message.
only 2 more duos for the prophecy now
still need to get 5 legends but
once ive done with the duos i can just go for straight god runs of specific gods
thanks '
the hermes ones might be mroe difficult though
Is there a way to see if a fish is legendary or rare in the codex?
i think in the codex its organized that way
Ahh, I've only caught three fish so far so idk if I can see that already
Now that I cleared TD2 with spear, I'm gonna try it with sword.
You can look at the wiki page too it has them all listed with their rarities
for cerbs unlocks, how do you unlock 7th heart
You pet the good boy a lot
you can spam it
then you just need to talk to cerberus
rto unlock the heart
petting on its own will not unlock it
You have to do a run after you’ve pet him enough
yeah
no one told me that when i asked so i just petted hiom for like nearly 20 minutes
...
so pet talk run talk
ty found my issue
I like how ||Aspect of Hades|| with massive spin can single handedly attack a whole room in ||Styx||
Imagine not starting every run with cerebrus' blessings
Then how are you able to get the boons you want?
I meant petting him when I said receiving his blessing
ooooh I thought you meant keepsake
TD2 sword run clear, started out pretty bad but it was alright toward the end.
What does td2 mean?
I really like TD, it makes you better at going faster while still being accurate.
yeah
i like || td1 mainly just because no stress but it helps you go faster and its free heat how fast i can go usualyl ||
Yeah ||TD1 is also good, it made me go faster but I had enough time on each runs.||
yeah
I'm using Hermes keepsake so I have another reason to go fast as well.
It does help a lot yeah lol.
FO also helps with speedrunning because enemies come to you faster
EM 2 is also faster because ||the bone hydra heads spawn closer together so you can kill them faster||
Anyone knows why || Than hasnt spawned for me in the house with the option to gift yet? I encountered him multiple times but i still couldnt talk to him ||
Try gifting him in-game right after he throws the heart down if you beat him
You have to be quick though
I've done the unthinkable and got out of tartarus using a fightstick
so today i maxed out charon's affections ||aand i got a bone hour glass keepsake upgrade but does that also mean charon will lower his prices in his shop or nah||
I'll try next time i see him, thanks
Maxing out affection with Charon doesn’t lower his prices
well what character should i raise affection of? bec charon was a complete waste ._. other then he's mah fav character
Maxing out Charon's affection ||gives a 4th rank to his keepsake ?||
Raising affection only actually gives you stuff for a few characters. If I were you I’d just do it with your favorite characters
I go by favorite here.
Gifting additional nectar doesn’t upgrade keepsakes
well should i do it for the keepsakes that i think are actually useful and use or nah
It doesn’t matter
Once you get the keepsake it doesn’t change for giving more nectar
i just wanted to say that i love hades 
You get charon’s discount another way
It only changes if you use it
It ranks up the more u use it
I see, I was wondering since he said he got a rank up on Charon's keepsake.
You rank them up from clearing encounters with the keepsake equipped
yreah
charon's keepsake kinda completely changed on me when i maxed it out when i maxed out his affections with tons of nectar and ||ambrosia||
You can get up to 3 stars on them, each level slightly upgrades the effect from the keepsake
Yeah, +8 is basically a whole biome
I never used Charon's keepsake
Me neither
I never buy well of charon items that aren't Kiss of Styx
charon's keepsake now ||items from charon are increased by 4+ encounters||
I check the well at each region and then decide if I want to use it
That’s just wells of Charon not his shop
Same but I end up not buying anything unless it's extra darkness or gemstones.
i buy healing and occasionly for athena if i dont get her dash
@near peak So maxing affection gives an additional rank ?
I never get items that are temporary anyways
I save my obols for boons
I buy attack and special
No, it just advances story
And cast if I'm using ||Hera bow||
I buy health regen, revives and fishing items from Charon's well.
Only thing I buy from wells of Charon are health and upgrading the rarity for next boon
You can catch fish in regions and trade them in for stuff
Trade them where?
I buy health, rarity buff, and chaos gates the most
Rarity for next boon can be worth it yeah.
The later in game the region is the better the reward
The chef in the house
If I’m doing a cast build I like the extra cast stone too
Does he give you anything?
Yes
I buy buffs items if I'm short on time or low health just before the styx.
k
He gives keys, darkness, gems, nectar, or bounties depending on what region you get the fish in
The amount/type of bounty depends on the rarity of the fish
Are any of the hidden aspects any good?
Depends on playstyle
I caught a fish in ||Greece|| on my last run.
Imo they aren’t very good because they’re mostly heavy builds but lots of people like them
Nice. What fish?
It was a ||trout.||
guess who got the duo boon i was aiming for in the run in tartarus
I want to catch a ||sturgeon||
I’ve caught one ||Sturgeon|| and like 6 ||Bass||
Can you spoiler the name of the fish please. ||using a real-world fish name kinda spoils the fact that you get out||
I got a diamond from it so that was still good.
Yeah
Sure, done.
I like how they handled the story for ||when you finish your first run, I thought the story would end there but that we're back at home to continue playing the game with no incidence on the story but the fact you die in the story when outside is a great way to put it for a Roguelike game perspective.||
Yeah
Also anyone who has not beat the game DO NOT LOOK AT THAT
||When you talk with nyx after beating the game, she does say that if you could talk to her for even a few minutes would you try and escape, and zag says yes||
Go to #h1-high-heat-strategies, they'll help ya out.
some side quests also require certain levels of affection. These sidequests also offer rewards once completed. So if you see someone who is obviously struggling with something it might be worth it to raise your affection with them and those involved
I see.
I just realized that doom helps a lot to kill everything faster, for low health enemies I can just inflict doom and take care of other enemies.
Even with non low health enemies tho, inflicting doom to everyone and repeat also helps a lot.
Does the game get harder after the first time you encounter hades
Depending on the heat settings, yes.
What is that
||Pact of punishment||
||Setting in the pact of punishment to make the game harder||
How would I have done that
It goes from ||set time to finish each areas or taking more damage from enemies or more hits to kill enemies and much more than that.||
||After you beat the game, when you try and exit there will be a prompt||
I didnt beat it though
||You can basically earn more bounties and titan blood||
I died to the last boss
Yeah but now all the bosses are harder
I reccomend having atleast 1 death defiance for the last boss
Yeah once you reach the final boss, ||things get harder||
Ok
But the ||pact of punishment is different||
I just killed Asterius and Theseus back to back, I damaged them both equally until like 15-20% hp left on Theseus, I had hunter mark so each time I was doing a crit on one, I would have the mark on the other and vice versa so I kept attacking both.
Fast boss clear.
i lost to || hades||
Fast enough for the bonus from Hermes keepsake.
How many heat ?
i hate this i failed to get that legendary aphrodite then lost a dd in styx
restarting the run rn
not losing my streka
I always lose a dd in ||styx to the rat poison||
DD ?
Ah nvm I get it.
3 heat run atm with sword about to enter the Styx I should clear it, that would be 3 win streak if I do.
I had 2 dd's on my first run and I beat the final boss easily
2 DD but it should be fine, I'm running with ||TD2|| which I cleared before on 2 heats run so I went back with it again since its 3 heats as well.
fjoiewjoigew
I'm definitely gonna prioritize doom on my future ||TD|| runs, it does help a lot.
What's up ?
What weapon do you use
I got wayyy to confident in ||the hades fight|| and died on ||phase 2 because I got boiling blooded and spinned on||
I could have ||beat hades with lucifer smh||
You still fulfilled the prophecy
High price boons in the Styx gives higher quality right ?
Sword at the moment but I prefer spear.
Really op combo is nemesis sword with artemis attack
Yeah, higher rarity
||how do i complete the fated list thing called "the queens plan"||
I lost against ||Hades||, didn't got lucky with the Styx and lost my 3rd DD.
Thank you.
Is it normal that some achivement on the switch dont transfer on pc. Im so sad 😭
If yes, is there plan for hades to att a menue with the achivement for switch 😦
I won againts thanatos 9-29 and dint get it when i transfer my save
that sucks
Yeah steam checks during a run if it was completed, not if it happened in the past
Same with stuff like "use a greater call" and such
so i need to save in my run and then reloard during my run to get achivement?
Thats suck i dont have the game on pc i just load save on my friend library... : (
Is there a list of achivement that dont work?
give nector and ambrosia to all the gods
yes
Ones that require you to do a certain task during a single run most likely won't carry over, while ones that can be worked on during multiple runs most likely will
I see thanks. I hope they put a system i love do challenge the achivements. 😦
||i have died to charon more than i have died to hades||
||Its a much harder boss tbh||
yeah
||Oar goes haha 50 damage||
||ended my run because i lost 2 death defiances||
yes he hit like truck
I usually fall on ||Charon|| boss fight when I dont have much boons.
I lost twice and then 2 times in a row, I believe there's a prophecy for it.
Or is it an achievement ?
||Im just gonna fight hi m for the titan blood in the phrophecy||
Idk if my run goes bad but I should be able to beat him with 3 dd
Do you have to beat him consecutively in 1 run?
provided u can kill him without to much trouble
huat
u can only fight him once per run
Kk
Do you have to beat him 2 runs in a row?
Doesn't have to be 2 runs in a row but 2 victory against him in a row.
ok
finally beat that talos run
i lost the first attempt of it but
got that second one
listen to hades music and procrastinate on homework: yes
finish homework so i can actually play hades: no
Were you running that pact or did it never get offered?
i had
my level of the legendary boosting mirror
and all the requirements for th eboon both times
and i rerolled it even
at least i only have one more duo boon to get now
which gonna get next run
along with hopefully artemis's legendary
I had to get practically all of artemis’s boons before she offered me her legendary
So her legendary isn’t useless, I like going for a cast build if I’m aiming for that
got dark foresight on
it should go well with the duo if i manage to get artemis's legendary
anywya that was
my second 5 duo run
Oh boy. I have no DD's and I just got to the final boss. 🤞
Do any one know when we can play this game on PS4?
Athena call for the win!!!!!
I have no idea how I did that without any death defiances
how do I declare something as a spoiler?

||like this||
he, didn't I try it with the backslash? thanks guys 🙂
Will Hades ever come to other platforms?
We launched v1.0 of Hades only on Nintendo Switch, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. We'll be considering opportunities to bring the game to additional platforms down the line. Thank you for your interest.
What’s the verdict on deep pockets vs golden touch? How much really is 100g?
Is this a bug / mistake? ||Artemis just said 'uncle Zeus' dann Zeus popped in cuz a duo is triggered and says 'thanks daughter'. or this a thing that you can your niece daugther?||
Maybe she meant your uncle?
||I'm certain she said my||
@shy steeple by mythology Zeus are father of Artemis and Appolo. That's even a spoiler IMO
I wish survival rooms didn't have a cap on how many coins you can get
I thought the game was on PS4 because I saw a video that showed R2 trigger, I suppose the PC version has PS buttons if you use a PS controller ?
what percent does golden touch cap out on
I prefer Golden Touch, you only get 100 gold with deep pockets which isn't much while you can get more than that with Golden Touch.
Deep Pockets is better for new players I'd say.
does fated authority let you get more than 2 hammers?
no wait
thatd mean anabsurd amount not just 3
prob not
im pretty sure anvil is the only way to get more than 2
We can only get one hammer upgrade per run ? I thought I got 2 in one run before but I probably confused.
They both just said you get 2 per run and to get more then that you need the anvil @lyric wharf
Smh
basically you can get up to 3 hammers 
Oh I read it wrong.
Why does hades just leave treasure troves all over the underworld?
I know zag commissions them but once he does, what does hades plan to do with them?
storage not vulnerable for all being in 1 spot? taunt the dead?
Hades just says it doesn’t belong to zag
||TD2|| run clear with 1 minute left, I thought I would run out of time, I had to go rough, didn't die but cursed slash helps a lot with that.
Good job!

for rail
