Hmm

#

That sounds cool

meager steppe
#

On sale in the Nintendo switch shop.

worldly canyon
#

Darn

meager steppe
#

PC?

worldly canyon
#

My switch is currently impounded by my wee sister shadedisgruntled

#

I never get to see that damn thing anymore

meager steppe
#

Let me guess. Animal crossing?

worldly canyon
#

Yes

meager steppe
#

Haven’t gone there yet. I’m sure it’s coming.

austere jacinth
#

My mother is obsessed with that. I wonder if I can get her into Hades...

meager steppe
#

My daughter is in kindergarten. If it makes her read, then so be it.

winter harbor
#

Hades or animal crossing?

meager steppe
#

Animal crossing. Hades has spoken dialogue. Does animal crossing?

worldly canyon
#

It does if you do funny voices for the characters

meager steppe
#

Noice

brisk trail
#

All right, got || 32 heat with God-mode, but who cares? ||

#

Feels good mang.

worldly canyon
#

I do

#

Good job mN

meager steppe
#

I’ve been avoiding ||god mode||. Am I suffering needlessly? Probably....

spiral crow
#

made another Hades live wallpaper for Wallpaper Engine

#

the art in this game is freaking gorgeous

meager steppe
#

Don’t disagree.

worldly canyon
#

I see 3 very good boys in that pic

meager steppe
#

Also congrAts on 32. The way I struggle with 0...

brisk trail
#

Yeah, I need to get through

plucky brook
brisk trail
#

Get these hard achievements out...

#

Expedite the farm 🙂

meager steppe
#

Awe thanks! @plucky brook

#

I’ve always found that once you introduce that crutch you can’t ever get rid of it.

#

And once the farm is done, the game’s no fun.

#

Thankfully, I’m not afraid to die.

#

I won’t judge you for it though. The game gives me contra vibes.

#

Lots to see and death all around.

plucky brook
#

that's something I love about hades, it's semi-roguelike where you actually have benefits from dying.
I was getting myself absolutely kicked in the teeth when starting ||32 heat|| runs, and Hypnos suddenly had so much more dialogue for me,
granted I was malding because I died, but it was amusing that even after 100h he still had new stuff to say

worldly canyon
#

This game has made me not afraid to die because the afterlife is minmaxing

#

Woohoo!

acoustic plank
#

I mean, there's a ||song about death|| in the game.

#

It's made me come to terms with it.

tender basalt
#

I can’t wait to die and just respawn

#

That’s what happens right?

meager steppe
#

If you believe the Buddhists, sure.

heady skiff
brisk trail
#

You do you, ladies.

#

I need to cut the curve by about 100h and get back to adulthood.

#

This was supposed to be my Christmas vice

#

And here I am 80h later...

acoustic plank
#

I didn't care before I was born and I won't care after I'm gone. I'm here to enjoy the in between

brisk trail
#

So, I'd hate to do a 7-heat run or something and get my ass wrecked by || daddy.||, so having to start again for that last ||titan blood||

#

Boomer reflexes, I won't actually get good...

#

Can maybe do 5h with no issue.

meager steppe
#

Not sure winning is the point is all. But I get it.

#

And adulthood is a constant struggle so I get that. Four kids ten and under.

#

You make a compelling arguement.

brisk trail
#

Spoilers ahead

#

Massive ones

#

|| But after you speak to your mum 10 times and she agrees to come back, your mirror is maxed out (except the bottom row) and you start ramping that pact of punishment a few times - what's the point of dying over and over? It's not all that much part of the game at that stage. Plus, I died enough time suiciding trying to ramp that 'boon' to 80% ||

meager steppe
#

That’s quite a wall of text. And I’m one heat level 1

narrow hemlock
#

@brisk trail there's additional story that explains the purpose of the continued gameplay loop

plucky brook
#

I don't know if he means dying in that fashion

#

thnkng or maybe he does

worldly canyon
#

There is a very simple answer

narrow hemlock
#

theres still an explanation for it

worldly canyon
#

|| to go fishing in greece ||

narrow hemlock
#

you dont get that after the ||ten runs though|| :P

meager steppe
#

Okay. I can tell I’m out of my depth here. So many spoilers tags.

worldly canyon
#

Yeah, but you can keep doing it after 10

narrow hemlock
#

you cant ||visit greece once your mother comes back. fishing moves to the same room you fight the boss||

plucky brook
plucky brook
meager steppe
#

I mean. After one clear you kinda get a bit of a feel for where we’re headed, but I’ll wait it out. Only seen hades three times so far. Keep hitting a wall at ||theseus||

worldly canyon
#

Damn. Kinda wish I didn't read that tag because now I never want to play the game again

plucky brook
#

theseus is a SPOOKY boi, can confirm

#

(also he isn't a spoiler as he's before the final boss which is the spoiler trigger)

meager steppe
#

Really?

plucky brook
worldly canyon
#

Virgin Theseus vs. The Chad Asterius

plucky brook
#

but yeah just keep playing, keep having fun, you'll come to understand some things as time passes and then you can click spoilers akek

meager steppe
#

That’s the plan.

plucky brook
#

I've felt my gameplay get worse lately Sadge getting too complacent with not dodging etc

meager steppe
#

Yeah. I think I see the YouTubers and streamers and get too aggressive.

worldly canyon
#

But isn't it more exciting to barely beat the final boss with 16 hp

#

Is how I'm justifying my most recent run

plucky brook
#

no cause then i've been sloppy

#

any DD loss is a defeat to me now LUL3D

#

damn elitist

narrow hemlock
#

redacted is a spoiler in this channel 😄

plucky brook
#

by redacted they mean ||hades|| akek

worldly canyon
#

I still find it hilarious when || Hypnos freaks out because you die by natural causes ||

acoustic plank
ivory geode
#

||i can respect the hades fight being a spoiler but at the same time its kind of an inevitability innit||

plucky brook
ivory geode
#

||i mean i just figured from basically the start that "im gonna have to fight my dad eventually huh"||

plucky brook
#

||my heart when I beat theseus the first time and came across cerberus standing there, I thought I had to take on doggo with 0 DD and no health akek||

ivory geode
#

||ME EXCEPT INSTEAD OF BEING AFRAID ID DIE I WAS LIKE NOOOO DONT MAKE ME FIGHT THE PUBBY||

plucky brook
#

||my mind just never connected that akek||

waxen juniper
plucky brook
#

I got my ||32h|| done, just been slowly going up with ||bounties|| at like ||~10|| for most weapons now

waxen juniper
#

Good job! Sounds like progress to me :)

fleet narwhal
#

yo imagine hypnos reading off his list that ||zag got mauled by a bear and be like tf is a bear||

waxen juniper
#

He does comment something similar with ||natural causes||

fleet narwhal
#

||imagine dying of natural causes||

#

couldnt be me smh

frank creek
#

quick q if I may it seem like skelly stopped going up in hearts, new conversation, not offering nectar

#

do have to fight him for it or is the fighting pointless to do

ivory geode
#

(modern/human au)
zagreus: so everyone knows homer's smash hit the iliad, right? well, the sequel's pretty good too. if you haven't checked it out yet you really... odyssey it
hypnos, who wasn't really paying attention: ???? Homer Smash????

plucky brook
frank creek
#

havent even done one finished run. got to end boss no spoiler only twice and died both times

plucky brook
#

ah then yeah, just keep playing the game and you'll uncover it in time POGGERS

waxen juniper
#

Okay, you're a ways away from unlocking that heart

plucky brook
#

skelly will just keep telling you to wack him or something for a bit LUL3D

waxen juniper
#

And he won't stop either. It's his job after all

frank creek
#

ok just wondering, just got the fishing polebut havent got a chance to use it yet

waxen juniper
#

Skelly abuse was part of the contract

plucky brook
#

POGGERS fishing, best content

frank creek
#

so fighting him is a waste of time or adds something?

waxen juniper
#

Skelly? He's a training dummy

frank creek
#

thought so

plucky brook
#

There is a steam achievement linked to it, but nothing gameplay wise as far as I'm aware

frank creek
#

just curious if it adds anything reltionshipwise

#

playing on switch

lyric wharf
#

I wasn't a lot into Poseidon boons but they're pretty good with railgun.

frank creek
#

damn hating the minotaur duo battle, that drags on brutally. sucks bigtime to then die at last boss after that

#

😫

#

only got to him 2x and lost

#

but getting alot better and further

waxen juniper
#

Poseidons boons are quite nice. He is a very strong god.

#

Breaking wave and Typhoon's fury are lovely

frank creek
#

it becomes more how many death defiance do I lose on each boss

waxen juniper
#

Just takes some practice. You can do it!

plucky brook
#

POGGERS that's progress peter

#

everyone hates elysium boss fight

frank creek
#

how do I get more of those blood things that let's me upgrade my artifacts

lyric wharf
#

Yeah, Poseidon is probably good with melee weapons as well but for now I enjoy it with ranged weapons, I'll try it with melee weapons later when I'll be more used to knockback, it can do a lot of damage.

waxen juniper
#

Got to beat a run first

plucky brook
#

There's 1 for each weapon kill on fury, ||1 for each hades kill with each weapon, and then you can make the game harder with a "pact" which allows you to re-earn those rewards||

#

Spoilers in my msg, obviously akek ^

opaque nexus
#

hey guys so update on the hades relay race, my run basically went perfectly, no horrible rng

lyric wharf
#

Knockback distance seems to be affected by damage right ?

frank creek
#

my favorite is the spear upgraded to 3 spears wideshot

waxen juniper
#

So chiron knockbacks things farther than say an arthur attack

#

But 1 knockback attack goes the same distance

lyric wharf
#

I've seen a video with bow and lvl 31 Poseidon on attack that can knockback ||Hades||.

graceful flicker
#

man that theseus fight just tilted me. Rushed down the bull in like 10 second and then theseus proceeded to camp the corners with his shield up while whatever god power spammed the entire field wit .5sec warning. Not like those zone control powers that at least give you a clear spot to stand

#

He took down 2 death defiance because literally only my cast aoe could hit him, the bow couldn't get behind him

plucky brook
#

that doesn't sound fun at all yea

#

that's why I delete him first KEKW

frank creek
#

theseus feels cheap camping in corner firing while focusing on minotaur

graceful flicker
#

I've got aspect of chiron so the special is homing arrows, with the +4 upgrade, so it's usually awesome for arced backstabbing

#

but not when he camps the walls so it hits terrain

frank creek
#

I usually do minotaur emphasis first

graceful flicker
#

minotaur is easier to hit and does more damage, usually theseus alone isn't a problem but this time

waxen juniper
graceful flicker
#

that's like a 1s window?

plucky brook
#

that's valid, it's a bit weapon oriented, I use things like eris rail, hidden sword & demeter fists, meaning that if I focus theseus, asterius will just take damage from being in my general vicinity

graceful flicker
#

honestly the god spam was a huge problem because I couldn't even keep him on screen waiting for the opening

waxen juniper
lyric wharf
#

@waxen juniper Well I'm using Hestia aspect and the first shot when reloading manually knockback further enemies rather than normal shots.

graceful flicker
#

last time I fought the last boss with a great build his 2 opening spin hits each took out a dd

#

I haven't killed him yet with a melee build for that reason

lyric wharf
#

And like I said about the video with lvl 31 Poseidon attack on bow that knockback enemies really far.

manic bobcat
#

just dash back and forth

lyric wharf
#

I never had Theseus getting in a corner.

frank creek
#

I just dash like a madman wasp attacking praying I dont get hit

manic bobcat
#

like actually though

brazen lagoon
lyric wharf
#

Bad idea to put non damage up boon on railgun special, like curses.

frank creek
#

not sitting back and slowly lunging

lyric wharf
#

I'm trying to get better with railgun right now.

wispy flax
#

Turns it into a ||beam|| weapon

winter river
#

Was just thinking, probably the two gods I find myself seeking the aid of most using Achilles spear are Poseidon and Artemis. Kinda ironic given Poseidon staunchly supported the Trojans and Artemis was one of the two patron deities of Sparta, who Achilles feuded with. Just a random thought.

lyric wharf
#

I havent unlocked it yet.

lyric wharf
graceful flicker
wispy flax
#

And it can proc Zeus chain lightning basically every 0.5 seconds and its STUPID good

plucky brook
#

how to increase rail skill:
step 1: zeus keepsake
step 2: zeus attack
step 3: brrrr

wispy flax
#

^

#

That and getting infinite ammo + triple special is really good

winter harbor
#

Zeus cast is terrible with Hera bow, no wonder why their marriage isn’t very good

brisk trail
#

is god mode a big difference?

lyric wharf
plucky brook
#

20% base damage resist, going up 2% every death to a max of 80%

brisk trail
#

just saw what it does

brazen lagoon
lyric wharf
#

Oh I actually checked if he edited it but I didn't see it at first.

graceful flicker
#

I did edit it

frank creek
#

I must be the only one here not having beat final boss yet 😩

brisk trail
#

but can i still fulfill some prophecies that i wanna get out of the way with it?

graceful flicker
#

I thought spoilers were allowed outside the new player channel

brazen lagoon
#

read the top bro

#

says no spoilers please

lyric wharf
#

Its really fun to knockback enemies in your railgun special.

graceful flicker
#

No I believe ya it was my mistake

wispy flax
#

Unfortunately it doesnt work as well with the Athena attack = deflect boon because the end of the ||beam|| or the body ||beam|| cant deflect, just the origin of the ||beam||

frank creek
#

is the cast's worth wasting time on seems kinda worthless damage wise and feels more like a throw able item I need to retrieve every time

wispy flax
manic bobcat
#

it's good if you build around it.

frank creek
#

vs just using normal and special attacks

ivory geode
#

||i havent unlocked aspect of lucifer yet but i like it solely on merit that it implies lucifer is a hero||

manic bobcat
#

and yeah, lodging gives additional damage

#

I tend to lodge one to bosses

manic bobcat
#

always

wispy flax
#

I can burst Hydra down in ~20 seconds if Im slapping it with cast and blasting him with damage

frank creek
#

cast seems pointless wasting boons on

wispy flax
#

Besides, 3xCast with ||Demeter|| or deflect boons is stupid

frank creek
#

at least early on

wispy flax
frank creek
#

impression I'm getting, damagewise it seems weak and useless

lyric wharf
wispy flax
#

^^

lyric wharf
wispy flax
#

I can get most of the way through 1st floor with just cast without a cast boon

wispy flax
lyric wharf
#

Boons can apply curses which helps a lot.

frank creek
#

must be doing something wrong 🤔

wispy flax
#

||5 cast embed on Hades was brok||

lyric wharf
lyric wharf
#

No matter how many bloodstones you have on an enemy.

manic bobcat
#

It depends on how you build your run.
Cast is usually in the support role unless you build for a cast run.
Just use it to lodge enemies.

wispy flax
lyric wharf
#

People here said they doesnt stack.

wispy flax
#

Cast + Pose boon is also great fun too with how much you can smash enemies into walls

manic bobcat
#

Poms do stack, lodging damage bonus doesn't

wispy flax
lyric wharf
#

But its worth having more if you have dislodge damage uo.

manic bobcat
#

Yeah, that doesn't stack, 1 or 3 gives the same amount ogf bonus.

lyric wharf
wispy flax
#

I had 4 cast with ||Demeter boon|| which is what I was talking about. Very good damage.

graceful flicker
#

Funny thing about the poseidon cast, huge aoe damage and knockback

brisk trail
#

omg hello hades people

graceful flicker
#

you can just spam a pillar with it for invincible zoning

lethal island
#

Hey so I was watching the vod of the gdq run and they used ||Meg on the Hades fight,|| but last I checked you can't do that, were they running on an old version or is there some trick?

graceful flicker
#

Especially in the ||final maze|| you can control every room with the poseidon cast

lyric wharf
#

Poseidon and Zeus duo boon is awesome, I wasn't using both of them a lot but now with railgun I'll have a reason to.

lethal island
#

I know what those are

#

I'm saying it said ||summon not available|| when I tried to do it

manic bobcat
#

Unova, it's lore locked. You need to clear the end credit or even the epilogue.

plucky brook
#

nah not quite right fox

#

||4 hearts with Hades
7 hearts with at least 2 of the following: Megaera, Thanatos, Dusa, Achilles, Skelly, Sisyphus
The above must include one of the following: Megaera, Thanatos, Dusa, or Achilles||
^answer above

lethal island
#

Wait I did clear the end credits though

manic bobcat
#

One of the two, it has been a while I don't remember

brisk trail
#

ur so swag for having unova as ur name

manic bobcat
#

GUYS

#

we know what companion is

brisk trail
#

gen 5 slapped

lethal island
#

Facts

plucky brook
#

yes, the lore answer, is what I spoilered

manic bobcat
#

You can't use companions against the final boss, except ||skelly and bouldy||

plucky brook
lethal island
#

So I just need to ||shove more nectar at him ||got it

plucky brook
#

fox, that's not true

#

l0l

#

you can use all

manic bobcat
#

no you cannot, not until you unlock the option late late game

plucky brook
#

it's not late late game at all Monka

manic bobcat
#

show me a run where you Meg the final boss pre end credit

plucky brook
#

literally the answer is what I spoilered above

lethal island
#

Is it end credits or epilogue

#

Cause I've done end credits

plucky brook
#

credits/epilogue has nothing to do with it

manic bobcat
#

Bruh, you can't get 4 hearts pre end credit

plucky brook
#

it's relationship based with specific people

brisk trail
#

i have a really funny meme abt a companion but its spoilers and im on mobile

wispy flax
manic bobcat
#

You can't gift ||Hades|| past 1 until ||Mom comes home||

lethal island
#

Ok so it's just post end credits

manic bobcat
#

That's late game, unless we are gatekeeping that also.

brisk trail
#

its about SPOILERS ||thanatos finding mort its so funny||

wispy flax
#

The two most useful Rail upgrades Ive found are the +pierce/ricochet or +special bonuses.

plucky brook
#

but that has no relevance to the actual answer, which he wanted KEKW

manic bobcat
#

Well I said it's lore locked. I might have been unclear on the details.

#

But it did explain the Megging of ||the final boss.||

tranquil lichen
#

tbh i love how you spoiler the spoilers

manic bobcat
#

that sounds wrong somehow lmao

tranquil lichen
#

usually you write down at least some sort of spolier-free word to indicate the content of a spoiler

brisk trail
#

So, I've still got the hearts locked on || Alcoholic god whose name I can't spell, Artemis and Demeter||....

manic bobcat
#

it's a free fire zone overthere :D

winter harbor
#

It feels nice when you don't take an athena keepsake into elysium and get a natural athena for her dash anyway

brisk trail
#

has anyone finished the game i want to send a funny meme but no one in my friend group knows hades ARRGHHH

manic bobcat
#

post it in #fan-works dude, people there would appreciate it im sure

brisk trail
#

OH its not my art or fan work its a tik tok that i think relates to thanatos

tranquil lichen
manic bobcat
#

oh gotcha

wispy flax
#

As soon as I get a dash boon, Athena doesnt wanna give me hers

winter harbor
#

I took acorn because I don't think I've quite mastered ||EM3|| heroes fight and my ||heat|| is getting high enough I still think I should take it over the alternatives

lyric wharf
winter harbor
#

But I got an athena in the miniboss chamber anyway

manic bobcat
#

I'm so done with this convo lol

brisk trail
#

i finished 16 heat today with a remote drift and i nearly died zagreus kept running into lava gwagwa

manic bobcat
#

Unova asked how did Vorime ||used Meg against Hades||

#

I answered it's lore locked

lyric wharf
manic bobcat
#

Other people misunderstood the question and kept talking about how to unlock Companion

lyric wharf
#

@manic bobcat Oh my bad I wasn't following the convo.

manic bobcat
#

Yeah, what I said was to explain the confusion

wispy flax
manic bobcat
#

All good.

brisk trail
#

i cant spoiler it tho

tranquil lichen
#

you can

brisk trail
#

ITS NOTHING LIKE BIG SPOILERY

tranquil lichen
#

when you insert image

brisk trail
#

WOOOOO

tranquil lichen
#

there's a tick

#

next to chat box

#

says "spolier"

#

now, then

manic bobcat
#

You can't post image there though

#

Just mask your imgur link

#

Sometimes it works.

tranquil lichen
brisk trail
#

OH its a tik tok ill just send the link dhcjenf

lyric wharf
#

Btw everyone cant post pictures right ?

manic bobcat
#

yeah

tranquil lichen
#

yeah

wispy flax
#

Yep

manic bobcat
tranquil lichen
#

server role restictions

lyric wharf
#

I thought it was locked behind a role you earn after a while.

brisk trail
#

im so sorry this is all abt me wanting to post a stupid little tik tok EHJCN

lyric wharf
#

Why no pictures allowed btw ?

manic bobcat
#

just do imgur or post to your private server and copy link here

wispy flax
#

Its probably added individually to people per channel if they need to

manic bobcat
wispy flax
#

Spam ^

tranquil lichen
#

not only that

lyric wharf
#

I guessed so.

tranquil lichen
#

but it's easier to automod

#

text

wispy flax
#

Its also harder to moderate if all channels have pics

tranquil lichen
#

than images

wispy flax
#

^^

tranquil lichen
#

and images can get gory and 18+ish

#

not that the game is child friendly i'd assume

#

in some aspects

#

but still

#

: P

wispy flax
#

It is actually, mostly.

#

The server is PG-13 residentzag

tranquil lichen
#

i guess blood is just 12+

manic bobcat
#

I mean yeah, though some other server that is equally big and they allow image privilege

tranquil lichen
#

or smth

manic bobcat
#

SGG is just a bit strict imo, but just a mild nuisance so whatev

tranquil lichen
#

it's still regulated in some capacity, i'd assume

wispy flax
#

Yeah usually with a slowmode timer

manic bobcat
#

anyway, Hades

tranquil lichen
#

i'd assume offtopic you can post images

wispy flax
#

Anyway, Hades.

lyric wharf
#

Its fine honestly, each server works differently.

wispy flax
#

They have a tutorial on how to play ||Good Riddance|| on guitar

lyric wharf
#

120 hours in Hades now, still not tired.

wispy flax
#

Found it last night and now I need to buy a guitar so I can sing it

brisk trail
#

IVE BEEN LAUGHIGN AT THIS FOR SO LONG

lyric wharf
#

Who's that ?

#

The person he found.

brisk trail
#

||the lil rat companion||

#

||that he gives u to summon him in battles||

lyric wharf
#

Talking about music, I listened to the full final battle theme and its amazing, when playing the game the fight usually dont last long enough to really listen to all of it, not because dying but the ||transition between phases.||

#

Final battle ||phase 2|| is my favorite theme of the game.

#

I was really impressed when I first heard it and metal is my favorite music genre so yeah.

#

Styx rooms with knockback and boons based around it is too good lol, walls everywhere.

#

I usually clear styx rooms really fast but right now this is the fastest I've done, I'm going to do every rooms because it just feels great.

solar barn
#

yo

#

Hades vs Mario Odyssey

manic bobcat
#

yo

solar barn
#

i own none

lyric wharf
#

I obliterated even the mini bosses, not tiny vermin btw but still I usually dont kill the mini bosses there within seconds.

manic bobcat
#

If you ask which of the two to buy in the Hades server, don't be surprise when you get recommended Hades lol.

solar barn
#

Also mr incredible kills Barney in the end to save Hades...oops 4got to give a spoiler warning. well u have to take the VERY dark ending where Shaggy gets eaten by shrek while big chungus gets drunk with maple syrup to see Mr Incredible do that......hey I learned it from Thomas the metro in the second reality after he killed the magic school bus and lightning mcqueen...yea i have mental tissues

manic bobcat
#

???

lyric wharf
#

I only have 1 boon that does extra effect when knocked against walls, I cant imagine with more than that.

solar barn
#

have u played mario odyssey???

#

i want a fair answer from someone whose played both

lyric wharf
#

What he's saying is, most people here would say Hades.

manic bobcat
#

that's a very specific subset of people lol

#

good luck then

wispy flax
#

I got to ||Tiny Vermin|| fight and I got scared

lyric wharf
#

Also, that's 2 very different genres.

wispy flax
#

Hes stronger than he looks

lyric wharf
#

Tiny vermin is really annoying yeah.

#

On my Hera Crush Shot build run the fight was alright.

wispy flax
#

I dont remember what I used for that fight but even with a dodge deflect I was a bit anxious haha

brisk trail
#

||TINY VERMIN|| FIGHT IS SO FUNNY

lyric wharf
#

I'm glad I'm finally enjoying Poseidon boons.

wispy flax
#

Pose has some strong duo boons

#

Random thought: There is not a single bat in the Underworld blobnotlikethis

manic bobcat
#

There are like a lot though

brisk trail
#

||the furies 👀||

wispy flax
#

Of bats or Pose duo boons?

manic bobcat
#

Bats

lyric wharf
#

With this game I try to explore everything, I want to try everything and get better with each, sometimes I even do ||AP2|| runs to be forced to use boons I wouldn't use in general to get better at them and find new combinations.

wispy flax
#

Hmm I guess Meg ||& co would count but they are Furies and not bats||

manic bobcat
#

No spiders though

wispy flax
#

Not yet at least

manic bobcat
#

Or just animals in general I guess

Styx rooms are always a blast to clear but right now it gotta be the best I've ever done.

#

The most fun I ever had with it so far.

hushed schooner
#

yeah

#

especially with a good build

#

also

#

saving up currently for the giant gold statues near the pool you unlock from || beating charon ||

#

gonna be such a massive flex

wispy flax
#

Ive yet to do ||Charon|| fight

#

Cant seem to get a dodge deflect + ||Charon|| fight spawn in the same run with my abysmal luck

brisk trail
#

It's either super low probability or you ||need to enter his shop in the early game completely broke ||

#

|| All times I've fought him I've had less than 150g and entered his stop the first time it was offered ||

wispy flax
#

Hmmm, Ill look into that then.

brisk trail
#

It's a ridiculously hard fight.

#

At least 2 death of defiance.

wispy flax
#

Im prepared to get all Athena boons so I can crutch my way to victory aPES_Giggle

lyric wharf
#

Just cleared a railgun run with just ||TD1|| and that was mostly trying out boons, now I'm gonna focus around knockback build.

#

I'm gonna be using more Poseidon and Zeus with railgun, two gods that I usually dont play much with.

wispy flax
#

Ngl my only clears are with Rail so my skill with it is terrible

lyric wharf
#

Not that terrible if you actually cleared runs with it.

wispy flax
#

Those are my only clears so far blobnotlikethis

#

Its too much of a crutch for me lol

brisk trail
#

Eris?

lyric wharf
#

Dont forget that experience with one weapon also gives you experience with other weapons.

#

That is if you learn enemies patterns and such you would feel more confident about it with other weapons.

wispy flax
#

Yeah Ive memorized all the enemy patterns within ~25 runs give or take, save for some of the more lucrative fights. Its not too hard, Im just bad with other weapons. blobtonguewink

lyric wharf
#

Hestia is my favorite for now, I have yet to unlock its hidden aspect.

wispy flax
#

I think Im gonna learn how to use bow next because its the most difficult for me to use

#

Its a very hit or miss weapon, literally.

brisk trail
#

im so sorry

lyric wharf
#

I'm having way more fun than expected with Poseidon.

#

Ironic when he was the god I was using the least.

inland heath
#

Is there a way to know how many enemies you've slain?

fleet narwhal
#

scrying pool

#

you can purchase it through the house contractor for zags bedroom

#

its all enemies in total and nothing detailed

inland heath

I forgot about that! Thanks!

ARTEMIS

WHY HER

WHY NOT DUSA

OR MEG

OR NYX

lyric wharf
inland heath
#

Dusa is just a head

wispy flax
#

Cause Artemis stronk

inland heath
#

Nyx is night mom

manic bobcat
#

Artemis got that girl next door vibe

fleet narwhal
#

best girl to simp for are obviously the witches in asphodel because they give you a chance to see all of your favorite girls again

ivory geode
#

i think only girls should be allowed to "simp" for artemis

manic bobcat
#

No drama

brazen lagoon
#

artemis

#

is the only answer

inland heath
#

^^^

#

Meg however

#

Is also nice

#

But Artemis > Meg

brazen lagoon
#

this is coming from a completely unbiased source btw

#

artemis >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> evryone else

fleet narwhal
#

yall really simping over virtual characters huh

brazen lagoon
wispy flax
#

Artemis' character is also very well crafted too, and not 1D like the other gods

fleet narwhal
#

frank ore
#

I'd chill in the woods with her ngl but I am neither a man nor a woman so like 🤷

ivory geode

i think uhhh.... which girls r cute

manic bobcat

i mean arte is cute lol

inland heath

Dusa and Artemis

brazen lagoon

i like athena :}

frank ore

I'm too pan for Hades everyone is hot, cute, or Just Lovely

ivory geode
#

and eurydice but she's spoken for of course

wispy flax
#

Athena is #2 for me

inland heath
#

I forgot about Eurydice for a sec

brazen lagoon

Eurydice is wonderful and I love her a lot She And Orpheus Deserve Happiness

what, you're saying demeter isn't lovely?

austere whale
#

Just reached styx on my first 16 heat run
I blew all 3 DD on Theseus, got one DD from Charon Well and equipped skellys tooth.
I fear for my life.

fleet narwhal
#

16 heat shadeohboy

inland heath
#

16 heat

#

I think I'd be dead in chamber 2

frank ore
#

Lemme rephrase then. Hot, pretty, cute, or Just Lovely

austere whale
#

i am going scaredy boi chiron bow build.
Demeter + Athena Duo boon for the healing at Hades

frank ore
#

Demeter is very pretty

#

I think we all forgot about Chaos and that's a shame

inland heath
#

Trying to get Athena's favor seems hard

brazen lagoon
#

young demeter would probably be very striking

frank ore
#

Demeter's design is amazing and I love her a lot

ivory geode
#

but chaos isn't a girl
or a guy
chaos is chaos

frank ore
#

Chaos is a nonbinary icon

lyric wharf
#

Well I love railgun now, paired with knockback build I have no words, the bomb mini boss in Styx literally killed in like 2 seconds.

frank ore
#

Chaos is half of my aesthetic ngl

#

Chaos gives me similar vibes to Delirium from Sandman

austere whale
wispy flax
#

Its one of the most versatile weapons in the game

lyric wharf
#

Obliterate is the word honestly.

frank ore
#

I have 0 luck with railgun

wispy flax
#

So many good builds that you can get on it, and the hidden is quite fun too.

inland heath
#

First time I beat hades was with the rail

lyric wharf
#

I'm gonna try ||EM4|| with it after this run.

frank ore
lyric wharf
#

First time with spear here.

austere whale
#

Hazard bomb gives you +300% Special Damage, add Aphrodite flourish on that.
the most special damage I've had on a hazard bomb build is +650% with Chaos boons and a heroic aphrodite flourish

lyric wharf
#

@inland heath ||Hades|| battle is a spoiler.

wispy flax
#

It also deals self damage too

#

So be careful using it

austere whale
#

yeah gotta be a little careful but it doesn't deal a lot

#

so even if you make an oopsy it isnt too unforgiving

wispy flax
#

Any damage that you can avoid is damage that youre better off not eating

#

But I only say that cause I run into traps every single time blobnotlikethis

manic bobcat
lyric wharf
#

Yeah I had Hazard Bomb on my previous run, right now I have Cluster Bomb I like it, you can even target the same place with all of them which is better than regular I guess ? Since 5x 30%.

wispy flax
manic bobcat
#

aw

wispy flax
lyric wharf
#

Yeah.

wispy flax
#

Those pillars really suck though...

#

Ive never had an easy time with them

opaque nexus
#

ok so I competed in the second ever hades infernal arms relay race

austere whale
#

Yoooo found Satyr head within the first 2 tunnels and I have 8 minutes left to kill final boss

opaque nexus
#

6 runners on each team, 1 weapon per runner

manic bobcat
#

How does the relay work

opaque nexus
#

I was on spear, and I got the god run

#

these are the rules

lyric wharf
#

@wispy flax I always clear the pillars.

wispy flax
#

Same, theres just no effective way to do it quickly because they cant chain lightning or other AoE/chain boons

#

Dodges and dash deflects dont seem to work on them either so they always grab a Death Defiance stack

lyric wharf
#

Depends but you gotta be good at dodging ||Hades|| at the same time and not stepping in them while you're at it.

wispy flax
#

Or the 300IQ move which is to get ||Hades|| to destroy them for you

lyric wharf
#

Probably my fastest regular ||Hades|| fight right now or one of, railgun is too good.

#

I've always been interested into it and I was looking forward the day I'll play better with it.

wispy flax
#

The skill ceiling is pretty high for a lot of weapons, but Rail is really easy to learn and start getting your combos down

brisk trail
#

bruh actually tho, I can't get any new upgrades in the house contractors

#

according to the wiki, I've got the prerequisites for tons of stuff

#

but they don't show up

brisk trail
#

does the "list of minor prophecies" prerequisite require you to finish every single minor prophecy or just buy the item?

ivory geode
#

just have it

wispy flax
brisk trail
#

weird...

wispy flax
#

Basically the point is to never stop dealing damage, because once you do you place yourself at greater risk of being hit and being hit = more likely to die

#

So the more stuff you can fling at enemies and the more damage you can deal, the more likely you are to survive

#

Hence, learning the best ways to chain attacks together to never give enemies any breathing room is the most consistent way to get to ||Hades and then whoop him too||

austere whale
#

I didn't realize how needed the last 3 perks from the darkness mirror are.
||Died to dad from timing out with 9 minutes left, due to not dealing enough damage as I only had common rarity boons and didn't have the required legendary to make the build work||

#

So rip my Heat 16 run

wispy flax
austere whale
#

Routine Inspection is brutal

#

I changed it out to a different heat

#

gonna try it again I guess

winter harbor
#

Routine inspection and approval process are the worst

brazen lagoon
#

true

#

heightened security is up there

austere whale
#

I'm going +80% on convenience fee so I guess im just not gonna buy anything

#

ever

lyric wharf
#

@wispy flax Oh I see yeah.

winter harbor
#

I think I went forced overtime for mine but you do have to get used to it

wispy flax
#

Yeah that loop of "deal as much damage as you can without getting hit" is the core of all RLites and RLikes

winter harbor
#

Since you’ll probably take more damage from things moving around faster

lyric wharf
winter harbor
#

And TD2, since my runs are generally under 28 minutes

merry mesa
#

Is it okay to start on hellmode? im pretty experienced with roguelikes and such so i dont think extra difficulty would be too bad

austere whale
#

no i do not reccomend it

#

Even if you're good at roguelikes

merry mesa
#

i just want to be sure it doesnt have anything else that would make the experience different

wispy flax
#

whats hellmode

austere whale
#

I'm also a roguelike vet and had difficulties with normal mode at first

merry mesa
#

or is anything unique to it or just normal

winter harbor
#

It just has one thing that makes it different from a regular game

graceful flicker
#

@merry mesa if you're good at roguelikes, you'll just move through the base game faster which is good

winter harbor
#

Personal liability—no more brief invincibility period after a large hit

merry mesa
#

i see

#

so i wont miss out if i just do normal mode for now

wispy flax
#

Is hellmode the default if you disable god mode?

#

Or is it separate from god mode?

acoustic plank
#

I don't find heightned security punishing at all, but I also didn't get hit by a trap until like my 5th run in

winter harbor
#

And it also forces you to do some other difficulty adding conditions

merry mesa
#

so i should just do normal mode?

graceful flicker
#

Yeah

acoustic plank
#

Hellmode is seperate from godmode which is seperate from normal. Think of them like easy medium and hard

austere whale
#

This run is over.
Done.
I win. Just got Relentless Volley in my third room and Epic Demeter flourish in the first room.

#

Its DONE

lyric wharf
#

God mode cant be enabled in Hell mode.

graceful flicker
#

The game isn't "easy" on normal mode

winter harbor
#

Are you playing Chiron?

austere whale
#

yes

wispy flax
#

Easy would be god mode then, gotcha

acoustic plank
austere whale
#

Demeter shatter + Legendary boon on Chiron is just.... nasty

winter harbor
#

God mode just gives you damage reduction

graceful flicker
#

The game just uses progression to meet your skill level

winter harbor
#

Up to a max of 80%

wispy flax
#

I suppose I should try out hellmode at one point

spice ginkgo
#

you know what would be cool

#

a throw cast at cursor option

#

keep attacks and such with movement but be able to aim cast precisely cause keyboard kinda iffy

austere whale
#

That's an option. Attack At Cursor in options

#

Controls

#

That's what I use

spice ginkgo
#

well yeah but that changes all your attacks

#

i just mean for cast

wind token
#

Have a question: Does Demeter Nourished Soul boon affect Death Defiance?

spice ginkgo
#

pretty sure it just means fountains and food

wind token
#

Thanks

spice hearth
#

I'm pretty sure it does actually, since it affects all healing, and DD counts as healing

waxen juniper
#

Gonna try a boonless run tonight 🤞

wind token
#

@waxen juniper How is that even possible?

waxen juniper
#

You have to sell boons after each boss fight. The goal is to get to the final boss boonless

wind token
#

Do hammers count?

waxen juniper
#

Nope.

austere whale
#

You also gotta be looking out for the random styx pools that appear in chambers!

wind token
#

Hmmm. The crit sword with double special and double damage crit thrust might be good for that

waxen juniper
#

Yep. So you wanna take 3 boons max for each floor and then sell them all every floor.

spice hearth
#

Hestia/Arthur might be better

#

they benefit more from Shackle

#

which is the keepsake you'd want for a boonless run

wind token
#

I completely forgot shackle lol

waxen juniper
#

I'm gonna do it with Eris. That seems great with shackle

austere whale
#

Shackle is like
backbone of boonless runs

maiden belfry
#

i hate hestias aspect

#

with a passion

wind token
#

I cant unlock fourth aspects for some reason

spice hearth
#

it's the reload mechanic, I;m guessing?

#

Love hestia with a passion

#

but only after i rebound my keys haha

#

did you spend it on the Achilles and Hades aspects?

wind token
#

Yeah I've unlocked both and upgraded Achilles twice

spice hearth
#

ah

#

then it's just a matter of waiting

#

if you wanna speed it up, just fail a bunch of runs in a row, and talk to achilles each time

#

that'll get through the dialogue quickly

narrow hemlock
#

@wind token [redacted] is a spoiler in this channel, if you dont mind adding a spoiler tag please friendly

tbh

#

got messed up by heracles then gets beaten up by zagreus countless times

spice hearth
#

tbf, ||Zag gave him a way better name||

hushed schooner
#

yeah but still

graceful flicker
#

deflect on attack is underrated

wispy flax
graceful flicker
#

thats true

maiden belfry
#

its like

#

mostly only fists

graceful flicker
#

and spear?

wispy flax
#

Fist, Rail, Shield, Spear

#

Triple jab + deflect Spear is a huge unou

hushed schooner
#

yeah i did a triple jab achilles run

#

with doom it was great

graceful flicker
#

yeah I tried to make the aspect special rush work but triple jab is where it's at

wispy flax
#

Its either triple jab or better dash strike tbh

#

Either (or both!) are great for Spear

graceful flicker
#

yeaah the fun thing about dash strike is leaving the spear up sometimes for a later teleport

wispy flax
#

Yep, definitely very fun

#

*teleports behind you*
Nuthin personal, kid
blobdead

lyric wharf
#

We can dash strike without the spear ?

#

Like while the spear is thrown somewhere ?

wind token
#

Okay bow double shot with Aphrodite attack is just broken

#

Oh and the quick shot too

torpid fox
#

just tried hades out today and 😳 damn

hexed shore
#

Damn

torpid fox
#

hawt

hexed shore
#

No u

graceful flicker
#

what makes aphrodite busted?

lyric wharf
#

@torpid fox Get ready for a long ride.

hexed shore
#

She's hawt

winter harbor
#

Highest +damage% of all the gods

hexed shore
#

But also weak is a really easy to proc status that stays on forever and has great duo boon synergies

wind token
#

@graceful flicker Her damage scaling is the best, plus double shot doubles that, plus she gets boons that add damage to her status affect

hexed shore
#

Only jolted and rupture and chill don't have synergy with weak, everything else does

wind token
#

I was doing 2000 point combos with 5 quick shots lol

winter harbor
#

Great duo boons too, like heart rend

#

I want my crits to be bigger

hexed shore
#

Heart rend demeter special can delete bosses the same way arty call full Guage does

lyric wharf
#

I often play with Aphrodite boons, she's definitely great.

torpid fox
#

you die alot but it doesnt make me rage as hard as lets say dark souls

fleet narwhal
#

dark souls can be passed off as just needing to git gud but death is pretty much inevitable in hades

torpid fox
#

death is gud

manic bobcat
#

Some Dark Souls traps are pure evil tbh

graceful flicker
#

what's heart rend?

manic bobcat
#

Duo boon between Aphrodite and Artemis

fleet narwhal
#

crit deals more damage to weak foes

torpid fox
#

i left this game in my steam library for a bit haha

#

which weapon do like the most?

flat crater
#

ik it's kinda basic but i'm a big fan of the sword honestly

#

but the fists are my one true love

torpid fox
#

i havent spent much time with the sword

flat crater
#

its hidden aspect is probably what i'm best with, though i think the fists r more fun

torpid fox
#

i like the longer range weapons

#

like bow and spear

wispy flax
#

Spear and Rail are my go-to weapons atm

torpid fox
#

i love throwing the spear and throwing it back

#

getting back stab damage in

flat crater
#

theyre fun too! the spear's special is super fun to use

torpid fox
#

yes

#

calling it back like thor

flat crater
#

i like the fists bc i can get in really close and punch really fast lol

torpid fox
#

the fast punching is pretty epic though

hushed schooner
#

i like the spear rhe most

#

its in my name

ripe sun
#

which aspect do you like the most?

hushed schooner
#

also having done a really good run with || guan yu|| i can confirm i like all of them

#

the spear aspects

#

uh

#

hades probably

ripe sun
#

any tips for ||guan yu||? I just started messing around with it

hushed schooner
#

but i havent played with zagreus aspect mcuh recently so i can't really factor that one in

#

uh

#

special hammers really good with it

#

like breaching skewer, chain skewer, charged skewer

ripe sun
#

yeah pretty much the only thing I have heard is just max special damage

hushed schooner
#

yeah uh

craggy barn
#

the one you really wanna go for is charged skewer

#

because beeg damage

hushed schooner
#

i mean i think deadly strike is good on main

craggy barn
#

quick spin is also great because you can just spam ||serpent slash||

hushed schooner
#

yeah

#

but yeah special is a big part of how you play || guan yu||

ripe sun
#

I mean I watched a vid from haelian where he recomended pretty much just using special.. is that a good way to use it, or should I try to mix in other attacks as well?

hushed schooner
#

i mean if you can but if you get the right special build it can tear

craggy barn
#

can you actually get quick spin and ||flying serpent|| in the same run?

hushed schooner
#

i wouldn't say go exclusively special

#

if it would just restrict you

craggy barn
hushed schooner
#

but the ||healing from frost fair is still useful and the spear attacks are still there between spear throws ||

#

also idk maybe that would be q fun build

#

with both of those spear hammers

ripe sun
#

I feel like the spin attack leaves me so vulnerable

hushed schooner
#

it does

ripe sun
#

like I have to stay close and it takes a long time

craggy barn
#

you can try charged skewer and quick spin at the same time to balance it out

hushed schooner
#

you have to bw careful with it on that spect

#

yeah

ripe sun
#

I always end up taking way more damage than I can get

hushed schooner
#

charged skewer would be amazing hy itself

#

and quick spin is probably more useful than any other spin hammers

craggy barn
#

use the special as your main source of damage but if there's a bunch of enemies near you pull out the quick spin

hushed schooner
#

since it makes doing the spin faster

ripe sun
#

yeah. I just did a run with charged skewer and focused on special. I ended up clearing, but it was only at 1 ||heat||

craggy barn
#

which is very benificial to ||guan yu||

hexed shore
#

Spin attack is very good

hushed schooner
#

point is with || guan yu||

hexed shore
#

The trick is to dash spin

#

Charging spin attack in front of your enemies is a bad idea

hushed schooner
#

keep at a range and don't take risks at close range if you can help iit and focus on special depending on the build but it's a solid weapon i think it just has a big curve ans titan blood investment

ripe sun
hexed shore
#

The stagger also gives you plenty of time to recovery so you aren't very much at risk

torpid fox
#

the voice acting in this game though

hushed schooner
#

i think its worth the titian blood if you care about the spear

ripe sun
#

yeah I have it maxed

hushed schooner
#

but you don't need it all to try it out but a few levels wouldn't hurt

craggy barn
#

you're gonna spend titan blood on it at some point anyways

hexed shore
#

Whole idea behind playing spear is staying 10ft away and poking your enemies

hushed schooner
#

if you're struggling for health

#

maybe take aphrodite

#

for life affirmation

#

because 1. aphrodite boons probably work really well with || guan yu || anyway

#

due to big damage increases and weak

ripe sun
#

what is the recommended boon for special? I have been going artemis for extra crit

torpid fox
#

i like throwing the spear and calling it back to get the backstab damage ion

craggy barn
#

weak works well with most weapons really

hushed schooner
#

i went divine flourish and it worked really well

#

yeah but less health + weak weak helps with that

#

ive seen frost used

#

i think uh

ripe sun
#

yeah I kinda want to try aphro next time

hushed schooner
#

basically any flourish that isn't like zeus dionysus or ares would work

#

if you got it buffed enough

ripe sun
#

in fact I actually grabbed aphro this past run, but I got heroic from artemis next and couldn't pass it up

hushed schooner
#

yeah that sounds good

#

heroic deadly flourish

#

ywah gl with it anyway

ripe sun
craggy barn
#

dionysus and ||demeter|| are bad on guan yu special for obvious reasons

ripe sun
#

it was nasty

hushed schooner
#

no ||demeter ||is good

#

still has the damage increases

ripe sun
#

I would think anything that would stack is bad?

hushed schooner
#

dionysus only has dot and zeus

#

has lightning

craggy barn
#

oh yeah it still increases damage

ripe sun
#

ah okay I see

hushed schooner
#

no but the flourish will still make rhe throw do more damage

craggy barn
#

artemis and aphro are still better choices

hushed schooner
#

it just won't rally be able to apply lots of status but you don't really need that with a powerful spear throw

#

yeah athenas also good

#

like i had it and it was very good defensively

#

which helped with the squishiness and me using the butterfly

ripe sun
#

I took tidal dash but I feel like divine would have been better

hushed schooner
#

i imagine poseidon would also work fine though

#

question

ripe sun
#

ooh poseidon on special could be fun

craggy barn
#

broseidon

hushed schooner
#

would the || frost fair blade spin activate zeus lightning much|| if you went lightning strike

#

you could do a lightning strike + tempest flourish sea storm build if its a viable main attack boon

#

for the spin

#

because usually you probably never wanna pick lightning strike on the spear

ripe sun
#

I feel like zeus + Poseidon hidden spear build could be fun

hexed shore
#

I like aphro on special most of the time cause aphro stays on for a while

#

And there better boons for when you're attacking as often as most weapon attacks do

rapid forum
#

all I know is zeus attacks have certain cooldowns

#

hushed schooner
#

distant memory was fine tbh

waxen juniper
hushed schooner
#

i just threw it on a few times

#

in styx on bow/rail

torpid fox
#

i want to spend some time playing some call of duty

#

and im trying to 100% yakuza 0

hushed schooner
#

i play a few runs everyday on average but i try not to do too many

#

or

#

exhaust myself

rapid forum
#

Thing about distant memory, Idk where the range is.

hushed schooner
#

but honestly ive made amazing progress ans played alot of hades so yeah

#

yeah it's confuse

torpid fox
#

i dont want to play so much and then feel empty

rapid forum
torpid fox
#

i just started and did like 6 or so today

rapid forum
#

to savor it I put ||EM4||

hushed schooner
#

i think as you go on

#

and get consistent clears

#

runs become alot more fulfilling

rapid forum
#

cause nothing feels better than having only one chance to play and miserably fail at the end >:DDDD

hushed schooner
#

like at the start its like

torpid fox
#

yea i beat tartarus pretty often now

hushed schooner
#

"alright i got into this region and died"

#

"let's go again"

#

now im like

torpid fox
#

the ||skull crushers|| really piss me off

hushed schooner
#

"ill do a clear with these weapons today for some resources and bounties then stop playing"

#

because like

torpid fox
#

they do vibe checks

hushed schooner
#

i get alot of sfuff done in those runs

craggy barn
#

i once spent 7 hours banging my head against the final boss

hushed schooner
#

and they're honestly can be very stressful

#

so yeah but gl

torpid fox
#

its nice dying and talking to everyone hha

hushed schooner
#

yeah

#

its a nice cycle

torpid fox
#

but i wanna GET OUT OF THIS HELL HOLE

craggy barn
#

now it's just "hmm which weapon shall i use to beat up ||daddy||"

hushed schooner
#

i think honestly coming back into the house of hades is alot less stressful after having cleared it so many times

#

its like

#

"|| i may have died but another successful escape now i can vibe with people and spend some resources||"

#

probably don't click that as a new player

#

also spammy i agree it is like that also

#

point is gl with hades you'll probably get better as you go

hexed shore
#

Coming back to house like "look ma, no hands"

waxen juniper
hushed schooner
#

shadow fiber
#

waxen juniper
#

spare tiger
#

I wonder what the best hidden aspect is in everyone's eyes

#

Frost Fair Blade is always fun

waxen juniper
#

I think ||Arthur|| may be the general concensus

craggy barn
#

hidden aspects are spoilers smh.,,

spare tiger
#

Would it be considered a spoiler?

waxen juniper
#

There dad

spare tiger
#

I always felt like Nemesis was the best on Stygian

#

Crits for doing something you already do regularly

#

And a really good crit rate too

waxen juniper
#

It is a nice crit chance

craggy barn
#

30% is a lot

#

pair that with world splitter and you'll be getting some big numbers

spare tiger
#

Arthur is fun though

#

I've never seen meatier hits on a backstab

hushed schooner
#
