faster than what
do the house decor items u buy from the contractor do anything or are they purely cosmetic
they have some minor implications in fates list/side stories
And you need to buy a certain amount of stuff to unlock the ability to purchase story and gameplay items
200 base damage from ?
Crush shot. That is how much base damage it had
So it'd be dealing 334 damage disregarding any other buffs
Here's a quick question. Does chaos damage remove a counter from evergreen acorn?
I would assume so but have exactly zero proof or actual source
🤔
no it doesn't

it would be funny if it did
that would be quite chaotic
I'm gonna try another EM4 run to see how it is with maxed Achilles Spear, I've been playing with non lvled weapons until today.
Good luck!
Thank you !
I wanted to try out every aspects first and also getting good at the weapons without lvling them first.
Yeah I failed 3 attempts last night, my absolute small brain didn't realize that I had no explosive plants in elysium and couldn't reset my HP after encounter with SD so went next room in with 4hp :c
I thought Tartarus and Asphodel were bad but as soon as I got to Elysium... oh boy.
All I got was pain.
is there a cap to ||Heat or is it techincally as much as you want||?
||I think it’s 60 or something||
64
||you stop gaining rewards after 20 I believe||
||but you can keep going up to like 64 which is all||
Really?
There you go Draven.
I cant wait to get into high ||heat|| but I'm taking my time enabling different heat and getting used to them, and then I'll keep some as standards and slowly add more.
||64||
||at 8, 16 & 32 you get a side reward as well||
wait what do ||Rewards classify as? like titan blood?||
||Is there a speed-run of 64 heat somewhere that I can watch? I’m interested.||
this is smart, I tried to go from 8-32 in one go 
||The 4 rewards||
YO
Lol
||each heat you go up, you can re-earn the x2 blood, diamond & ambrosia||
Damn lol, well I did ||HL 0 > 5|| in one go and it isn't as bad as I expected.
im at ||2 heat after beating the poop out of my dad with the twin fist||
I keep replaying ||six heat with extreme measures three||.
I like the boss fights better.
You really wanna have fun
I did every run ||1-16|| with shield and that was a cakewalk, so now I'm trying to learn hidden sword and want that to be my first ||32|| completiion
I think I’m on ||four heat with the Shield of Chaos||, though.
Now that I've played at least once witg every weapons that I own, I'm focusing on my favorite so I'm gonna add more and more ||heat.||
||EM3 is really fun, EM4 is a bit too frustrating imo||
||though the EM4 hades fight is something you should try to beat at least once||
||If there was no cap to damage control id say go like 20 damage control and have fun with armor
||
What would you guys think of an endless mode for this game?
that would... not be fun 
true
imagine endless ||styx||
To me it would be cause then Zeus would be your main focus with artemis
that'd be a nightmare lol
as much aoe as possible
I picture endless mode as being like nuclear throne where the game loops
Styx isn't a spoiler.
Okay
Okay
so i maxed out everything let me see how it goes 
I love the fast clear in the small Styx room.
I'm rushing all the time in Styx small rooms, easy to kill everything fast.
I hate that I always find the Satyr Sack after three hallways at most in the Temple of Styx.
I died at room 2
Yeah that's really fun.
Lmfao
So fast that the door is still blocked after killing every enemies lol.
I always end up missing a good boon or two, and, while I could risk it and go through the hallways, anyways, I generally don’t think it’s worth it.
I love it in the Styx because its like that last push rush to get out of here.
oh hey two general questions first is should i attempt to clear all of the game with every qeapon
weapon
There’s a prophesy for that, so you are encouraged to do so.
^ 15 blood iirc
lol
then that answers my 2nd question
i was gonna say should i grab every prophecy thing even if its detrimental to my run
Its 10 blood.
I'll also tell you there's 15 blood for ||completing a run using every pact option (not at the same time but just using them in total)||
There's also 8 bloods for finishing the game with each of the mirror skills.
I have done it boys and girls
jesus
I have ||beaten the Redacted fight||
grats
And waifued Artemis like any good player would
@brazen lagoon ^
nice
I got the mirror prophecy today.
artemis best character in the game ez
I also got the prophecy for finishing the game with each weapon today.
What counts as a spoiler
final boss and anything past that
||Demeter|| is also a spoiler.
its tied in with the final boss so yes
Sometimes people spoiler things that aren’t that though it seems
||spoiler|| is also a spoiler
Lmao.
OH ||when does Hades accept my nectar again?? am i supposed to beat him 9 times like some said before?||
people spoilering more than that is courtesy, but the general rule of thumb is any content seen at the final boss and past that
||If everything is spoilers, nothing is||
Seems like it
||companions|| are also spoiler as although not technically linked to redacted, you're more than likely to uncover it after a few clears
(source: aggy) 
I do like out of context spoilers
general narrative stuff should be spoilered too just as courtesy for players wanting to discover these things on their own
||a few rounds after your 10th clear i'm pretty sure||
ah okay so 9 is the magic number
also someone linked me to the ||4th aspect earlier on weapons i didnt get a chance to look can you relink||
I just realized that dash strike cant backstab.
all you need to know zab
with what weapon?
hidden sword best sword
If you mean how to unlock them, Zabulus, that's pinned in #h1-story-discussion
||EM4 + TD2|| here we go, the latter just because I like having a ||limited timer.||
I did ||HL5 + TD3|| earlier, it took me 3 attempts to beat it but I could have done it easier if I had DD but I used SD for mirror prophecy.
You're like 1% into the content, enjoy 
So Exagryph wouldn’t be a spoiler right?
correct
so this i need to know ||for thanatos butterfly is it permanent damage or is it only when its equipped?||
Only when it’s equipped.
Need moar content
Unfortunately.
that's not a spoiler, and only when equip
See how is that a spoiler
It's always a good feeling to have touch of styx dark active at the final fight
I encountered him pretty early on
he's unlocked the first time you visit Elysium
Yeah lol there's so much left for you to do.
didnt know my bad
I just realized that Zag's shoulder piece is an homage to Cerby 
It resets back to 0% after each run.
Oh I actually never realized that.
oooh but during the run if i switch it out do i keep that initial stat
No.

damn
You can't equip it back either, which is also the case for any previously equipped keepsake during the same run.
So I haven’t really played with barely any heat yet, so how does one boost their damage outside of aspect upgrades? Or is that all there is to it and enemies just become even tankier and you gotta learn to deal with it?
Mirror and weapon lvl, you mostly have to become better at the game.
It's not so much that you need to be tankier, it's more just learning attack animations/patterns and responding appropriately,
there's also a lot of ||pacts|| which don't directly impact how hard/fast the monsters hit, so you can start there when learning ||heat||
So enemies just get really tanky with high heat?
They can do more damage as well.
Well their health is what worries me more
at ||high heat|| people still try to avoid taking the ||pact|| which gives bonus hp, but they do take things like ||hard labour|| which is 100% bonus damage
Just try out the different settings one by one and get used to them, then add more.
is there an achievment id you let thanatos kill all the enemies in a room or if you kill them all and he doesnt get a kill
||Hard Labor|| goes up to 100% damage.
fixed ^
Makes sense then
Lol.
600 damage with crush shot 😎
crush shot op
omg
You chose to make the game as hard as you want so experiment with the settings and try to finish the run and then add more to make it harder.
Both of my last winning runs were using the rocket upgrade with exagryph
eris rocket is preeeeeeetty strong
this combo with Ares and Poseidon is A1
Kinda felt broken tbh
For real though. It is really not too difficult to manage with the lack of range of crush shot.
Is eris an aspect? I forget the names
yes it's the 2nd one which gives you 75% bonus damage if you hit yourself with special (and rocket counts)
Like you’re in the blast zone?
yeah

Live and let live
The base damage seemed kinda meh to me so the half-sniper thing it has going on is cool
Hestia needs upgrades
as with everything, personal preferences 
at max level it doe 150 damage which is the second highest base damage in game
That’s after a somewhat lengthy reload though no?
You can do other things like special or cast during the reload time
its not that bad
in fact there is like a rhythm to it
I like Hestia aspect, I tried it yesterday, its like having a shotgun shot on top of the railgun.
How’s it like a shotgun?
When you reload manually the next shot is a strong shot.
i got 5 twice
I worded it wrongly yeah shotgun shot would mean more than one enemy hit.
i need to upgrade hestia one more before i use it
that is a
hammer would
rhe shotgun hammer + hestia work?
I only have it at 100 damage currently
I got the cluster grenade and the rocket upgrades one time and it was amazing
I'm having a lot of fun with maxed Achilles spear, the damage difference is really nice.
Just obliterated everything
yeah rockers and/or cluster is amazing
My last run was with the rockets and the 3 shot burst thing which also worked well
am I the only one who just doesn't like achilles, I feel like I"m just standing around like a dummy waiting for my casts
Achilles spear is amazing, you can be ranged and melee at the same time.
The moveset is kinda all over the place imo
It’s really fun just chaining all the moves together with spear
I use hades because giant speen is fun to use
Also rocket launcher best hammer
Yeah I love it, lot of freedom.
I dont use sweep a lot tho, but sometimes I think about preparing it while enemies spawns.
WHY IS IT EVERYTIME I AM ON PB PACE I NEVER GET 2 SACK AND I GET TINY VERMIN
I AM SO MAD
Tiny vermin is really annoying.
Saw the vermin for the first time yesterday
Was kinda weird seeing a random miniboss like that
Why does zeus cast always feel so weak :/
I ran out of time during my ||HL5/TD3|| run earlier because of tiny vermin.
I keep seeing people say that Zeus is basically a requirement at high ||heat|| but he seems really average
tiny vermin made nearly lose a run once
It did make me lose a run once :p
he is depending on ur weapon
he's a bastard
yeah
some amazing rail/fists builds
yup
Zeus has good boons, but his cast just feels super weak
yuh
ignore existence of achilles spear
his cast feels
like || lucifer zeus||
really bad
i like its chaining
it feels
its consistent
The chaining is nice if it did damage
ig it's just a preference thing
it does do damage
The attack boost boon seems kinda weak though
It'd probably be better with stormed lightning
it's weak on some weapons
yeah
yuh
Is that cuz it’s flat damage?
that's great done that a few time
so fast attacks
plus the chaining does aoe
Keep in mind that zeus attack is primarily focusing on room clears. You may want something else to efficiently deal with bosses
I mean why.
can clear groups if you pump some bullets into a group
and easy curse (jolted)
Because that makes every cast better 😆
zeus spam + legendary deals with bosses fine tbh
Yeah at first it was really good but now I find it underwhelming.
like the damage on it
Keyword: legendary
is there any reason i should be able avoid a mini-boss fight in one of the 2 styx routes with the miniboss markers?
yeah well it's not one of the hardest legendaries to get
Cuz they’re annoying
If you have any ||companion charges|| remaining, you should actually do them
Honestly hate styx
I mostly run with Dionysus cast paired with Ice Wine lately, I cant help it its too good.
they are generally faster than a regular room
since mini boss rooms only have a few enemies at the final one
The enemies get really tanky there and the poison is just annoying
and if you get alot of zeus boons it does so mcuh extra damage + sea storm
tears
I always do both of the miniboss first unless there's a boon that I specifically need in another
Oh Raging Rush damage boost works on casts too ?
i've just gone through 2 routes in styx and the 2nd one was a mini-boss chamber but i didn't have to face one
I just did 5 crush shot builds with poseidon and fiery presence. All I'll say is I did not hate it one bit.
It’s global damage I’m pretty sure
found the bag for cerebus at the end instead
the passive income from hermes is great
I thought it didn't, I did try with cast on a run earlier but I was in battle so I guess I didn't pay much attention, I tried right now out of battle and yeah it works.
Styx really wasn’t what I was expecting out of a final area when I first got there
Yep. Achilles is excellent for casts
That's why my trippy shot be hitting higher lately.
I've been thinking about maxing Hera bow next but it reduces ammo drop time and I usually run Trippy Shot build with it so I guess it doesn't affect casts that dont add bloodstone to enemies right ?
makes clearing ore styx shop so good
I don't like trippy with achilles, since it takes what feels like forever to get your casts back from it
im not sure laumi
o:
Use stygian soul for cast builds like that
I use stygian soul
i should do a cast build with achilles when i get it leveled again haven't done one before
Hera bow upgrade doesn’t even look like an upgrade
I like using boiling blood smh
other then posiden
it means you can get your casts back faster
or if I'm going for an exit wounds build
and do 1k+ damage hits
I love Trippy Shot because it does great damage and it does that feel like it takes a long time for the bloodstones to come back.
It's 5s for trippy shot to finish casting, which feels pretty long in a game like this
Paired with Ice Wine its even better, its also faster.
When I dont have bloodstones I keep fighting beside so I dont see the time passing.
Eh I'd rather scintallating feast
It allows me to finish fast some enemies that would otherwise take longer.
Like shielded enemies.
just get both
To each their preferences anyways.
they're both available to get if you build ajd get luck
Scintillating Feast is pretty good yeah.
yeah
ehh too many moving pieces to try hit both duos
you'd be praying you hit either zeus or ||Demeter|| naturally and then getting the other forced
i find ice wine makes trippy shot easier for me
even if it takes getting used to
rip my man
gotta spoiler that fam
i mean everyone in the game is stupid attractive
im a nyx simp now
Kinda weird in the context of who you play as but yeah
we are mortals just playing as a demi god
well
you're allowed to find them all attractive you're probably not zagreus
the voice acting is ao good to it though
It’s kind of a high contrast from the only other roguelite I play very much
I play a lot of dead cells and that game has like, hardly any npc interaction, and what little it does have is basically meaningless
Yeah Hades has an actual story compared to most Roguelike where the story is more of a backstory.
I have Dead Cells as well.
I think that I'm gonna go back to it later, for now I'm to much into Hades.
DC devs are like always updating that game
Yeah, a new DLC came out recently btw.
Oh so it was just an announcement.
Yeah
They're working on a new game as well btw, months ago I've read that they're working on a new prototype or something.
Motion Twin is yeah, but Evil Empire doesn’t plan to quit DC updates for a while
That's nice.
Non-Hades game talk can be had in #video-games 
When butterfly ball makes you waste a death defiance 
I feel like when anything other than a boss kills me it’s a waste of a death defiance
can ||GY|| heal off of rib?
Worth the experiment
To be fair, ||guan yu's|| healing is pitiful
And you can only rib so much
And ||lil skelly has so low HP||
I guess
but like I'm assuming if u max it out
you aren't gonna be using rib like
every chamber
maybe like 1 per boss
idk
just a random though
I just think it wouldn't be that OP. It's like a 50hp boost 5 times and you don't get the other benefit of your companion
might save you a run or dd
yea I guess
hmmm
maybe using it while using the taunt ability is better
like trying to hit bosses
and the dummy
If it works. I'm gonna unlock rib and try it.
RIPPPPP
I don't know, that sounds like it could still be good depending on your build
hey all
hihi
yessir
I've sunk 40 hours into it already, but I'm sure that's not even close to the total I'll spend on it
Glad you're enjoying it! 
Decided to sit around and let Thanatos win this time
I've been dunking on him too much in the last encounters
but have you done a run where he gets 0 kills?
He usually sneaks in like 1
That's kinda cute ngl lol
especially because likes showing up in those horrible vast asphodel rooms where enemies spawn miles away from each other
I hate the fact he kills them through their little "eye" phase or whatever it is
hahaha nah it ain't cute i just made fun of him because i wasnt a fan of how edgy and sullen he came across as
but yeah you should try let him get 0 in a run, for reasons 
yeah hahaha i hope he'll show up in one of those tartarus rooms
52 hours in this game already
that's entirely a mood, I got the game early jan, i'm at 100h
40 in the past two weeks... lol
one of us one of us one of us
😄 😄
i got dio/demeter and dio/zeus duo boons in the same run....lets go funky festive fog
yooo sub 15
shoutouts to cluster bomb
hera bow + festive fog is fun
rocket+cluster bomb was my most busted run so far
Yeah that's a goal of mine
are you actually not able to get cluster bomb and triple bomb in the same run?
is that too powerful?
lol glad to know
except for bad call
full 100% the game takes way longer than all achievements
like if you are gunning for the FULL 100% unlocking everything in the game you are looking at gemstones in the ||50K|| range and about ||400K|| darkness
according to the global achievement stats getting 30% with the butterfly is harder than bad call??
The only thing I hate about this game is that I have to turn it off
i'd say rail + poseidon could be the way to go for getting 30%+ with the butterfly
I just had a 30% butterfly run with spear.
That Hades charge aoe strike is really nice for room clears early on.
im so glad ramas bow exists
time to do than keepsake challenge run
im doing it with achilles spear because i hate mineself
flurry jab is good with most spear in my experience haha
flurry jab is just good overall
not gonna put it in hades aspect 
it doesn't even appear with hades aspect
exactly

tbh though, I really want a mod to bypass some of the incompatible boons
I want parting shot on my beowulf
aaaa
imagine hidden sword with flurry slash lol
well the base damage turned to 25
so no thanks
unless it doesn't set the base damage then holy smokes
sword would be my new main
|| I didnt know we can't use companions on dad's fight ||
||He just granted me the authority to use it to him now
||
||his fights alot easier after that||

me forgetting to ||use companions up|| until the final boss fight
||and then the game says no you cant freaking do that 5head||
me using ||companions|| until i can't use them in the final boss fight 
companions are spoilers in this channel as an fyi 
spoiler it nerd
and there's a reason for that ||the majority of companions are directly hired by Hades||
We'll be careful next time
tagged
Are there any decent mods out for Hades yet or are they all pretty basic?
no idea, you can ask in the hades modding discord, for which there's an invite link pinned in #self-promotion
Cool, I'll check that out. Thanks!
Hello out there! Thought I'd send my first message before I let my nerves overtake me
I have noticed a strange little aesthetic difference between the Switch and PC versions of Hades and I was curious if anyone else had noticed it too
To be more specific, I've noticed Aphrodite seems to have her profile's contrast turned up on the Switch versus the PC version.
||hades just lets you use companions on him at some point||
depends on the weapon, aspect and build
what are the best duo boons to go for depends on your actual build and what you are going for besides that boon
some duo's are incredibly versatile and can be put into many builds, smoldering air for example can fit very well in any build that uses aphrodite on a core boon slot
if you're using sword or fists, get curse of agony + divine flourish to get merciful end and then divine dash to proc me
i didn't include merciful end specifically because of the nerf
but yeah it's stupid good
if you're early in a run, try going for exclusive access which makes all of your boons at least epic
all of the boons you get after*
no

you can only get heroic boons or exchanges/rare crop/ambrosia delight afaik
you can't get a heroic boon from getting exclusive access and then yarn from wells, in fact i think the yarn just does nothing if you have exclusive access
i was thinking if theres dlc or future big updates, theres a lot of cool thing to add from greek mythology and stuff
Now that Early Access is over, what's next?
Once we're sure our v1.0 launch has settled, our small team will be taking a break to recharge, and plan what's next. We'll be excited to say more about what's in store for us just as soon as we're ready.
but i dunno how it will work with a savefile thats been played for so long
Costed me 1 defiance ffs
game added a lot of new stuff through early access
and I believe save file dated way back are still compatible
so it wouldnt be an issue anyway
Do you usually choose a hammer or a pom?
definitely the hammer
it depends on the build, but yeah generally the hammer is the way to go
Is the Poseidon cast good? I never used it
if i'm going for a build that calls for specific hammers like cluster bomb then i'm definitely going for the hammer but if that's not the case and instead i have a boon that could really use a pom i'll just go for that
poseidon cast is more good for what it opens up i think
with duos
i have only just realized that hte athena/aphro boon is meant to be used with Exposed

I think it boosts legendary/duo chance at that point
easily achieved
you can take a look on nexus 
thanks >:D
Cluster + rocket bomb
a gun that fires a spread of 5 rockets is nice but what about making it rain 15 bombs at a time
Oh yeah that sounds pretty nice
cluster bomb on hidden rail would be pretty lame actually
everything just explodes immediately because you shoot 5 at once
what I meant is that it's easy to do, if you were interested in doing it
sisys boulder wasnt even that big
its like
baby sized
if it was a chunky baby
Or.... they didn't want to take up the whole space of the vase
Ok so I just bought the game. Killed the first boss. The women. I’m a little confused on this game though. So do I just keep playing the same levels over and over and umbrage the mirror? Are there any key points I should know? Which weapon to unlock first etc....
unlock whatever looks cool
thats what a roguelike is, yes
you will get them all eventually
die , pet cerberus , die, pet cerberus , die pet cerberus
die to cerberus
hey i got a weird question thats not really connecting to hades itself, if i stream Hades is the music copyrighted? im kinda new to streaming ^^
with every run you progress the narrative
oh uh, not really interested in modding lol
probably not, all streamers play with music on
Is the Sisyphus keepsake worth using?
okay awsome
Shackles can be good yes
Only time I felt like I could’ve used them was my last run where all the damage boons I found were terrible
One thing I recommend is putting it on in Tartarus so you are powerful enough even before you have a build going
speaking of shattered shackle
I made a hidden sword lite on nemesis with shattered shackle
big chop and shadow slash
I dont like sisyphus shackle
hits like 1750 on crit 
That sounds dirty!
it very much is
Why hit 1750 on a crit when you can hit 2k plus with boons ;p
Truuu
just not on attack
most of them are there to boost the attack
wait
shattered shackle hidden sword 
I'mma do that tomorrow
Sounds fun
shackle seems more like a meme keepsake than a usefull one imo. Boons will usually outperform it easily, making it usefull in meme non-boon run, or in early game when you don't have your boons yet (but at that time you don't really need the shackle, and can use another more usefull keepsake).
Hunter dash seems great with shattered shackle
My last run I actually didn’t find any good damage boons for my main attack, so it would’ve been useful there
Also it’d be nice if there was actually some sort of indication when your grenade has reloaded for exagryph
Or you can use fated persuasion
Hm?
with god keepsakes and fated persuasion, you should always have a good boon for your attack if you are looking for one.
even without aiming for a specific build, a god keepsake in asphodel or elysium can consolidate what you get from tartarus an give you a good attack if you are looking for one (and, unlike shackles, that let you free to use another keepsake for later in the game, if you need a defensive one for exemple).
Also, there is secret dialogue if you enter the final fight w/o an olympian's boon
quick question about the aspect of talos, does the magnetic cutter deal an additional 20 damage
or does it deal 20 damage twice (which is lower than regular fist special)
It’s kinda funky
I think it just does 20 damage once
excalibur in witches circle creates a death pit
There is
in a good or bad way?
Depends if you have deflect or not
||excalibur is arthur right ||
yea!
Yea
Also ok. yes
SO ABOUT THE hammers that upgrade you im pretty sure that's Hephaestus ||will he be revealed later?||
brilliant riposte in the witches circle >:}
i was planning on using it later, got any tips?
also that's Daedalus! and no
Athena's dash, Aphrodite/Artemis attack, double edge, shadow slash
You're good to go
oh wow
those last two are hammers exclusive to it?
thank you
no no
not familar with sword.. sorry
And no worries!!! I've done up to ||40 heat|| with Arthur so I hope I'll be able to be of Some help
||40 heat?? yo wtf||
Gross
oh!!! Also Demeter on attack
and don't forget you can dash in between your attack combo to stay safe
why art/aphro/demeter specifically? do they have higher damage boosts?
Ehehheheggehehhe
E
Arte can crit, aphros damage scaling is very high and demeter is ok
arthur is very very slow, so you want the chunky percentages over fast hits like zeus/dio
also makes the damage chunks Chunkier, the third swing already deals 200 base dmg
yea!
If you get arte attack + aphro special and get their duo everything will die
also blinding flash + aphro attack + privileged status
nasty
double edge is definitely the best hammer btw
For nemesis I believe
Dash strike hits twice i think
yes, and +20% dmg
+20 damage on the second hit or both?
If you get the hang of dash-strikes on arthur you deal damage much quicker and more efficiently
I believe altogether!
dang
though you'd rather do the 3-hit combo for large groups of enemies because the range is spicy
insert gnome noise here
IT'S STUPID
STOOPID
how do i utilize the special?
you mostly just use it for your holy aura
or to get heart rend going
You can go for a special-only build? If you get double nova or supernova, but generally I'd stick with attack
You'd also wanna try and get greater consecration if you can
Makes your aura 45% larger and makes foes 30% slower
Greater consecration is okay for survival purposes definitely
if you're scared of dying combine it with Demeter/Aphro attack
Or athena if you want to
im always scared of dying lol
Oohh yeah athena for ultra deflects
Athena attack + brilliant riposte makes for a brilliant build
athena special and just absolutely shred witches circle
Deflect their attack back at them and they just die
Yeah
it's so bad it's funny
Tried it once and went terribly
though cursed slash is good otherwise right
it's good with flurry
Cursed slash is good with flurry + zag sword + faster attack speed from hermes
YES
You will literally never die
Yeah
Zag sword is great man
Lets say you have Heart Rand: Critical deals more damage on weak foes, do you get the bonus damage if the enemy isn't weak but you apply weak on the attack that does the critical hit ?
People disliking zag sword? Smh
special
or cast ig?
All sword aspects are really good imo
I love every sword aspect
Yeah all swords are good!!! Though my fav aspects are on the bow
I like nemesis a lot
and fists
Anything, I'm just wondering if the bonus damage applies if you inflict weak on the attack or you have to inflict weak on the enemy first ?
hmmmm, i think the enemy has to be weakened
omg also lemme link my ||40 heat|| victory screen again
Alright thank you.
is there a prophecy for clearing the game with every aspect?
I dont think so
oop it's in #h1-victory-boasting
also no, just hidden
Athena’s cast is also good with Poseidon sword
And for clearing with every weapon but that prophecy doesn’t care about aspects
And you don’t necessarily need to win with hidden aspects, just get to the final boss battle and it’ll count
That’s how I did the prophecy for spear hidden
spear hidden is.. oof
it Looks bad but once you get the hang of the game it becomes amazing
you have a spin attack that travels around and deals stupid damage, imagine your regular spin attack but it is a blade rift that heals you
and the special's AoE dmg is very nice
yeah i managed to beat the game with it but very tightly
How in the world do I unlock the hidden aspect of Exagryph?
talk to zeus with it equipped!
That's spoiler.
i think what's spoiler territory is the aspects themselves though?
well, even the existence of other weapons could be considered a spoiler to some..
thinking about how i was a shield main for my first 20 clears of the game
then i did the skelly ||task to unlock his companion, nyx gave me the unlock quote for Arthur and I beat Charon with ease and i was like. WhHAT||
||pretty salty about that but at least i got diamonds lol||
i like pairing aspect of talos with something like Athena special and posidon attack
talos is fun
Any hints on how to unlock my friendship progress with ||Meg||? I've been stuck at 6 hearts for forever.
oh yeah || you have to beat her up a bunch ||
hmmm.. I'm not an expert but you might need to unlock bonds with other characters too. or just keep talking to her
at least i think thats what it is
hmmm, maybe using the pact is messing it up
Same
yeah, i'm at like 66 runs, but I've had EM enabled for most of them
em?
||Extreme Measures||
im not gonna turn them on until i get 10 wins under my belt
so honest question do you think if you were to start a brand new run its possible to beat the game in one go
it's very very hard
im saying i dont think its impossible
There are things you are missing, like the second dash from the mirror
It's not!
Vorime has done it
you can beat it on a fresh save
And a speedrun at that
no dds and 50 hp sounds super hard
its just very difficult
But your rng for the gods have to be hell
The gods are actually set, I believe
really?
Athena, Ares, Arty
oh
it's definitely athena and ares
so you can get merciful end
However you get no hammers, iirc
I mean with athena you can get the deflect which is actually really good
yeah yeah it's a huge part
for ares what do you get again
attack!
doom
merciful end is the way to go tbh
so it is possible just really hard lol
though I'm very :(( @ the nerf
Yes
Lemme link sth
Hades is a game where the main character Zagreus tries to escape hell over and over. But speedrunner Vorime says "No thanks" and just does it in one try! So ride along with Supergiant Games' Amir Rao (Studio Director) and Greg Kasavin (Creative Director) as they watch and react to one of the coolest speedruns we've seen yet!
Check out more fr...
whaaaat
bad run didnt greet the friendly shade
Dash deflect oooh
the friendly shade shows up after you first beat the heroes...i think?
YEA it's so good
Athena dash is my most taken boon it's my bread and butter
Sword before the hidden is still broken 
frost is my bread and butter
Sword is so good
So I PERSONALLY like to use the damage buff with the right click ability but is it worth it? like from all your runs is the bonus stack damage worth it as far as i am seeing this guy is using the rift to get past
im a punchy person
and he is strong with it
@lean wadi SAME
but im trying to beat the game with every weapon for the achievement
i was a shield main until i got the fists
also I am using all my titan blood for the uppercut cause the launch fist at max stack does too much damage
with ares your literally hitting almost 800+ damage
with just one boon]
i use aspect of talos so i dont have to move to hit the enemy
oh
i might try that
So i like boilingblood/infernal soul but is abyssal and Stygian better combo for certain cast?
hmmm
i like stygian with Achilles!
Makes up for the damage loss
and as for abyssal blood, i use it when i wanna make sure i don't die in tartarus
so high heat
I already beat the game with every weapon
nyx simp you'll do great
thank you
Yeah you can do it
Just try to be as buff as possible near the end
Zeus is a really good choice for raw power
the only weapons im good at are The twin fist and the spear
they both require a lot of skill to use, so good job!
You learn how to get good at every weapon soon enough
yeah i wanna learn the shield cause of the bullrush/blocking
The only weapon I’m not very great at yet is the bow
the shield is a good beginner weapon
the bow is hard
The bow is more awkward for me than anything
I usually just try to make the special really powerful
ehhh that's only good with charged volley
I'd recommend aspect of hera it's so funny. big memes
the hidden is also just amazing
will this game get a 3ds port
I don’t have the hidden aspect yet
And no it won’t
Nothing is coming to the 3ds anymore
Will the Cthonic Coin Purse only work if you take it when you first leave?
Nope, you can take it mid run
it works on any floor
Only once though per escape attempt
Anyone else want to be able to reskin zag as Red, The Kid, or a member of the team from Pyre?
dgfbne4123rb,nfvsdbkn cdvwnlklnfwelgwnlkwegf
i hate hades
always kills me at the last bit of health
Is it true that 1 Hades run a day keeps death away ?
Dont give up! ||You can learn to recognise his movement and attacks and how to counter/avoid them||
yeah true
or as Aquilles
Reskin Zag as Skelly
have them use a Zag face mask to still get boons from the other gods
i played a 1 Hades run (no heat, twin fists, ||2nd aspect||) and i just evaporated everything
Yes
but that would take loads of work
and would be near impossible
I am obsessed with this game 😭 its so good
the twin fists are pure aggresiveness
Chain shot bow with the aspect of hera and the lightning cast is kinda busted
gotta say i have to be thankful to this game not having a steam achievement for 32 heat. that would be devastating
magnetic fists? they are one of my favorite weapons
yeah i initially thought the pull range was the same as the regular special range
which was practically melee range anyway
"Get over here"
the best thing about them is how you can trap some enemies behind obstacles
and that is really strong if you're not speedrunning
i wonder if you can loop enemies like a yoyo if you get the poseidon boon on the special
You can
Lol the other day I tried to ||Take on a maximum heat run and died in the second chamber||
Oh my god I'm an idiot, I just realised that "+all damage" boons also apply to Doom damage
And I bet Orpheus' keepsake does too
i know what i'm doin
pff, that mode requires you to master the game in a pixel perfect way
||EM4 + TD2|| run clear with spear, first time with spear, I only finished ||EM4|| with bow before but without ||TD2||.
||i love the running gags in this game like hades's capes||
is there an option to change game quality?
?
I've now made a Hell Mode save next to my normal save for no apparent reason.
Or, rather, the reason is to play when I have Good Deaths saved up but not in a recording mood...
how I can change hades graphics quality?
Hello. Is there any place i can get hades merchandise? like a poster or art print?
or maybe an artbook. thank you
🙂
there are no art books, but you can check merch in the store https://store.supergiantgames.com/
see one poster only, i'll order it
wish they had more hades merch, cerebrus plush toy would be nice
if the developers are listening
or aphrodite nsfw poster
😉

uhh for my bedroom of course
This is such an NSFW fandom and it doesn't even try to pretend it ain't. 🤣
yes well all I shall say is refer back to rule 2 in #readme-first
yeah wish they'd up the merch count
stupid question but what's a vinyl disk?
record
do you need to use the old music player with a needle to play it?
for that sweet sweet nondigital sound
and do people still sell those?
yeah theres a huge scene of retro collectors audiophiles u name it
interesting. those anything-philes implies $$$
whats old is new again
maybe when im rich lol
hence you can pack up several discs and charge lots of cash for them
says sold out but i assume this set of 4 discs was like 200 or so my guess
150-200ish
could have easily sold for
I'd buy the Mars - Bringer Of War at vinyl.
already listening to the ost on spotify but the music is worth paying for
fox by the time i win the lotto and i want to start a real vinyl collection the discs i want will already have shot up in price on ebay\
shirts only go up to 2x large which is odd to see for official merch
lol
would have thought they would at least go to 3x
dont @ me but that shirt looks edgy as heck
you can go through their contact form and inquire if they might look into additional sizes, but be aware they're a bit backlogged currently trying to get to messages 
it looks like one of those gun n roses shirt that bikers wear.
Turntables are relatively inexpensive actually, and so is the production of high quality vinyl
