Take your time while hitting the boss.

signal aspen
#

learn the attack patterns of each fury

storm sail
#

I'm still pretty new to playing Hades and I was wondering if you guys could give me some tips on Exagryph, like which aspect and so on

signal aspen
#

eris aspect

#

just use your special and shoot at the same time

#

pretty much how you play it

storm sail
#

ok

signal aspen
#

you should also get cluster bomb and rocket from daedalus

grand crystal
signal aspen
#

if you are going to use eris

grand crystal
#

Zeus, dio, demeter are all good builds

#

and for eris really try to go for ps so you get that nice 40%

storm sail
#

ok

signal aspen
#

have you escaped yet

storm sail
#

nope

#

i'm stuck on Theseus battle

signal aspen
#

ah

#

i was going to send you a vid about it

#

but there are spoilers

storm sail
#

that's fine

#

i know how it ends

#

like the story

#

so go ahead

signal aspen
storm sail
#

thanks!

brazen lagoon
#

Haelian is poggers

signal aspen
#

yeah

storm sail
#

should i watch more of his vids?

signal aspen
#

if you dont mind spoilers then yes

storm sail
#

ok

#

will do

signal aspen
#

also this

storm sail
#

should i ask questions like this here or in another chat, like hades for new players?

grand crystal
#

either is fine tbh

signal aspen
#

it doesnt really matter

storm sail
#

ok

brazen lagoon
#

New players is more strict about spoilers so ask there if you don't wanna get spoiled

storm sail
#

man i love the Hades community, so wholesome and nice!

#

and that proves my point even more

brazen lagoon
grand crystal
#

since i got so burntout after like 3 files and a couple years of early access

#

very tiring

storm sail
#

wow

#

well good to hear you're back at it again

grand crystal
#

:3 40 heat sucks and all thats left is grinding tbh

#

but imma do it anyway

signal aspen
#

40 heat sounds terrible

storm sail
#

yeah

#

even if i don't fully know what it is it sounds hard

#

so what is heat?

grand crystal
#

its a difficulty setting you get after being 1 run

storm sail
#

oooh

signal aspen
#

things that make playing the game harder

grand crystal
#

but since im on hell mode i got it immediatly and a locked 5 heat

signal aspen
#

you unlock it after you escape for the first time

storm sail
#

cool

grand crystal
#

it caps at 64 and you get arbitrary rewards for milestones of 8, 16, 32

atomic lagoon
#

I was this close to getting|| 32 heat|| but I walked into [REDACTED]’s ||laser|| and died shadegrief

storm sail

#

i cant stop pointing out how nice and wholesome this community is zagluv

atomic lagoon
#

Ugh that sucks but at least I found a build that can get me that far. Here I go again, see you guys later!

storm sail
#

see ya!

atomic lagoon
#

Thank you

craggy barn
grand crystal
#

cuz like i get any% and i know all weapons is a thing

#

is there a base/epilogue ending category

craggy barn
#

literally nobody is gonna go from fresh file to epilogue in one sitting

grand crystal
#

i beg to differ

#

like i think running hollow knight in 51 minutes is still a lot, but those people

unborn remnant
#

18 hours is like

grand crystal
#

have a determination i shall never have

unborn remnant
#

how many hades runs

grand crystal
#

yea the loz tp low% i think is over a day

unborn remnant
#

some crazy runner will try it someday

grand crystal
#

but most of it is just idling so the glitch can happen

unborn remnant
#

but unless a huge skip gets found

craggy barn
#

there's a difference between going from king's pass to pantheon of the knight in like less than 3 hours and going from fresh file to "one for the ages" in one sitting

unborn remnant
#

that aint happening

grand crystal
#

people are just dedicated to certain extremes

grand crystal
#

asterius is baby

#

i love him

craggy barn
#

haelian has done fresh file to true ending but if you were to ask him if he'd do fresh file to epilogue he'd laugh at you

grand crystal
#

and the line of "is this all you do here" and asterius just going "yea about" made me smile

grand crystal
craggy barn
grand crystal
#

p4g is like 8 hours

#

p5r is 14

keen scarab
#

decided to put on Heightened Security because i have a bad habit of walking into traps and it'll defo bite me in the ass at higher heat

#

then got 1 hit by a trap :)

grand crystal
#

25 damage from spikes

#

like 100 from the arrow things in elysium

craggy barn
#

nobody tell him about the urns in the hades fight 🙈

keen scarab
#

oh god those are affected? oh boy

grand crystal
#

mhm, those just kill you

keen scarab
#

at least i dont get hit by them very often

grand crystal
#

like they dont literally just kill you but might as well

keen scarab
#

i mean dont they have like 50 base damage

#

thats like 250 per vase

craggy barn
#

actually it's 30

#

but 150 is still basically a dd worth of damage

keen scarab
#

i've got a strong build so i dont think ill even see the vase attack but still

trail pendant
#

I hate Theseus so much

fleet narwhal
#

my god heightened security SUCKS

#

the only way i was able to win was with sure footing

trail pendant
grand crystal
storm meteor
#

Maybe i missed it but why do the gods help Theseus too?

grand crystal
#

i dont think theres any implied reason besudes either hes also earned their favor, or they are testing zag

hollow kettle
#

They're like obliged to aid the champion of elysium or smth

#

What I wanna know is why do they give him such better boons

trail pendant
trail pendant
keen scarab
#

i mean they only give him 1 boon each

keen scarab
#

and its a kinda weak aoe attack

grand crystal
#

yea like the artemis one kinda poopy

keen scarab
#

hs was harder than em4

old tundra
#

hs means you 100% need to get athena trap reduction

craggy barn
#

sure footing is multiplicative so getting it with hs on is pretty important

#

it means that trap damage is reduced by a great amount and you're not actually just taking 310% more trap damage now off of epic sure footing

brisk trail
#

I JUST LISTENED TO A Q & A THAT MAKES ME HOPEFUL FOR HADES DLC

signal aspen
#

i kinda dont want a hades dlc

#

because i dont wanna pay

brisk trail
#

"Our whole point was to build a world we can keep adding onto as we see fit and if players want us to" loose quote

#

I do

#

Diablo 2 had 4 acts with the fifth added in LoD

#

Hades would be perfect for a fifth zone

hollow kettle
#

if they were to do like a huge addition I kinda wish you got the ability to explore the surface a little bit before you get sent back

#

like ||after you get persephone back, you can go past her garden and see more of greece before you inevitably die||

night leaf
#

Kinda sad tho ngl

#

It shouldn't be that expensive imo

brisk trail
#

Supergiant games are always affordable

#

I doubt itd be more than 20 bucks

signal aspen
#

i used to play destiny which has like 50 dlcs

hallow gate
#

Hi

hollow kettle
#

I knowww right, like Hades was only like $24 dollars I think and it's already so robust

signal aspen
#

which kinda ruined it for me

brisk trail
#

Supergiant games are prob my favorite developer of my adult life tbh

signal aspen
hallow gate
#

This is such a good game

keen scarab
#

Can you put poms on urge to kill from ares?

signal aspen
#

yes

keen scarab
#

aight ty

scarlet gull
#

THANATOS

#

i hate you

#

stop SPAWN CAMPING

#

LITERALLY PUTS THE CIRCLE WHERE THE ENEMIES SPAWN AND KILL THEM INSTANTLY

#

first thanatos i lost in a long time

hollow kettle
#

I got Tidal Dash one time and just kept pushing things out of his AOE hehe

unborn remnant
#

optimal gameplay

#

tidal dash is mad good

#

one of the better all purpose dashes in the game

#

I think I saw a run that went all in on splash dash

#

It was like level 22 or something

dim herald
#

All i can say is I am glad your fighting with him not against him because I cannot see ANY scenario that doesn't play out as Thanatos = YOU LOOSE

pale axle
#

i have a newfound appreciation for the bow

brisk trail
#

Bow is one of the best imo

wraith escarp
#

are we ever gonna get more gods like Hera, Hestia, Hephaestus, etc?

manic bobcat
#

No one knows

grand crystal
#

and i dont think sgg has ever done dlc so :/

pale axle
#

why arent they in

grand crystal
#

i think the reasoning was that they have better things to do and the gods dont care much but i might be wrong

#

you also have to think from a game play perspective where it could really go

#

like hera doesnt do much, hestia is hearth so like ig fire/healing but fire would work similarly to hangover and be boring

#

like what could you do for apollo

#

hephestus is loosley tied to hammers at least thats what i want to believe though its not too true

pale axle
#

apollo could be like light

#

hetsia could be like fire damge 3 times than a explosion

craggy barn
#

i read somewhere hephaestus doesn't wanna help because he's salty hermes can't bring zag one of his hammers or something

pale axle
#

hestia could be a combination of hangover and doom as fire damage, but as like the same amount of damage as like just hangover but a little stronger

brisk trail
#

Hestia + crit then just always reload after every shot

#

Then ofc make ur bomb as strong as possible

#

Ive been losing a lot of my best builds to hades by being clumsy the past 2 days its sad lol

grand crystal
#

damn, thats how it be sometimes tho

hollow kettle
#

it's like
Than: Don't get hurt.
Meg: Ugh, gods if you REALLY need me to hold your hand you big baby

brisk trail
#

||its just dumb cause ive never lost to charon yet i freak out on hades sometimes lol||

pale axle
#

how do you unlock the hidden aspect for the spear

thorny island
#
  1. Have fated list
#
  1. Reach the final boss (do not need to beat them)
pale axle
#

ive reached hades

#

do i need the list of minor profecies

thorny island
#
  1. Invest blood into 5 separate aspects (any weapon) NOT INCLUDING Zagreus aspects
#

The internet told me you need the fated list of minor prophecies

pale axle
#

ive already invested 5 blood

thorny island
#

Not invest 5 blood

#

Invest blood into 5 aspects

pale axle
#

oh

thorny island
#

Yeah

#

Confusing

#
  1. Talk to my boy achilles
pale axle
#

how do you get the list of minor profecies

thorny island
#

Buy it from the house contractor

#

It takes a while for it to be unlocked tho

#

Idk the exact requirements

#

4.1 keep talking to achilles

#

Step 5. Profit

pale axle
#

ive spent blood in the first upgrade for the rail, the shield, and the first 2 upgrades of the spear

thorny island
#

Sooo aspects of eris, chaos, achilles, and hades?

pale axle
#

yes

outer dew
#

You need to invest it in the spear

pale axle
#

i only need to infest in one more aspect

outer dew
#

5 titan blood in the spear

thorny island
outer dew
#

I was told it had to be spear

thorny island
#

There's some pages that say that, but the gamepedia wiki is more correct usually

outer dew
#

And Achilles only worked after 5 in the spear

#

But ok

green dune
#

no, it's 5 other weapons period

pale axle
#

how do u unlock heat

thorny island
#

For other weapons it's 5 in that weapon specifically

outer dew
#

||beat hades||

green dune
#

hell mode or clear the last boss

thorny island
#

Yup

pale axle
#

oh

thorny island
#

Just keep clearing runs and a lot of this stuff will come to you naturally

green dune
#

heat is for uping the difficulty... you need to beat it before you increase the difficulty

scarlet gull
#

do the other shots apply the mark on chiron?

#

like if i take triple shot

#

do the other ones apply mark as well

#

or only the middle one

brisk trail
#

So Cold Embrace literally makes my crystal aim at Zag instead of the enemy?

#

Like i have to position zag where I want to aim the beam instead of it firing where i placed it? Almost sounds like it could be a downgrade

scarlet gull
#

yeah

#

cold embrace is really hard to use

#

imo

brisk trail
#

I have the shield so it could be decent but also sorta sketchy

#

I guess ill try it out

#

I accidently wasted gold on the deidlus anvil and lost my 500% hammer T T

#

I was gettingy comfy and hit r on accident...

pale axle
#

hades time and i have max health and still one of my two death defie

#

and i died

wise sparrow
#

:(

sullen holly
#

I escape and got to the service but I did not get the achievement for it???

#

😦

thorny island
#

Did your dad kill you

sullen holly
#

I beat it

#

the game

thorny island
#

Huh

#

Weird

#

Maybe it's the achievement for finishing the main story? That's different than killing your dad

pale axle
#

wait doesnt it say all spoilers welcome

quaint wind
#

oh apparently. nvm then

sullen holly
#

I just beet hades with extreme measures on max

#

Going through again

trail pendant
#

speaking of extreme measures for Hades

#

I picked them up too

#

brisk trail
#

Ooh i can fight ||Charon|| in Asphodel for the 1st time

grand crystal
sullen holly
#

The hydra was interesting with extremem measures at ma

#

swift mist
#

yoo just got 14:45 with basic fists and no particular build

#

wasnt trying to go fast

sullen holly
#

Fists are easy

swift mist
#

fists are easy i will downplay the thing you are proud of for no reason 🤬

brisk trail
#

I see

stiff sonnet
#

my fastest clear is 18:37 with the basic bow, fully upgraded, artemis attack and flurry + twin shot

brisk trail
#

Hes actually hard lol hits like a truck lost one death defiance

#

Never got hit the other times i fought him lol

swift mist
#

ye charon is a monster

#

shreds you if you cant dodge

brisk trail
#

That was like my 5th charon win id say

sullen holly
#

charon is beast love the music as well

swift mist
#

his attacks are very mechanical so they are dodgeable and easy to learn but

#

they hit very hard

pale axle
#

is the fated list of minor prophecies just the table in zagreus's room?

ivory geode
#

has anyone drawn different seasonal outfits for demeter

swift mist
#

yeah @pale axle

ivory geode
#

yup, the one with the big piece of paper

pale axle
#

orpheus started singing but i havent gotten the achievement

old tundra
#

brisk trail
#

First page

pale axle
#

brisk trail
#

@old tundra first tab scroll down or scroll down to bottom of any contractor tab for that specific area

pale axle
#

ok i got the achievment

old tundra
#

okay thanks

swift mist
#

is battie or mort better for dps

#

i see people use battie a lot but all i can think of it helping a lot in is elysium bossfight

grand crystal
unborn remnant
#

my pb is 11:52 atm

sullen holly
#

The Theseus and Minatour boss fight in with extreme measures on is so much fun its frikin awesome

#

I had to use all my death defiance in that fight 😦

outer dew
#

Em3 takes a while to get used to

midnight talon
#

#

i love this game

grand crystal
grand crystal
midnight talon
#

what else have they made?

wise sparrow
#

bastion trasistor pyre

grand crystal
#

all 3 are very good, ive played bastion more times than i can count, transistor like twice and i wish i didnt get it for free, and i still need to get pyre but they are all amazing

#

bastion is the most similar to hades and their first game, transistor is a sci fi setting thats kinda turn based but not really(its a super cool combat system) and pyre is basketball

midnight talon
#

yes

#

b a s k e t b a l l

#

ive only gotton to the third areas last boss

#

ALMOST BEAT HIM

#

HIS DAMM SPEAR

grand crystal
#

oof i feel that

#

when elysium first came out they were a big roadblock for me

midnight talon
#

if i beat him i could of gave charon the reward thing

#

and get his s e c r e t keepsake

#

what is it again?

grand crystal
#

ummm charon doesnt have a ||companion|| you just get the forged bond chibi badge on his normal trinket

midnight talon
#

oh

grand crystal
#

||meg, than, dusa, skelly, achilles, sysiphus|| are the ones that do

#

and they take a lot more effort

midnight talon
#

oof

#

ok

#

i will focus on achilles first

#

also has anyone here 100% the game?

grand crystal
#

ummm i mean im on switch so i have no real gague but im very close and ik some people have

old tundra
#

depends on what you consider 100%

grand crystal
#

that too

midnight talon
#

true

#

im on switch to!

outer dew
#

Legitimately all the bond faces are adorable

old tundra
outer dew
#

I got meg first

#

But I thik sisy is better at the start

grand crystal
#

and hypnos

#

both very good

outer dew
#

Yep

#

Persephone as well

#

And achilles

#

How about all of them

grand crystal
#

they all look very cute

#

i just love the rainbow in the chaos one

midnight talon
#

hmmm

#

super nova or world splitter....

#

time to think for a while

lost citrus
#

Is there a special condition to unlock Achilles / Patroclus reunion? I’m 74 runs in and no sight of progress on this quest. Finished everything else including epilogue. Patroclus just tells me off and gives me my rewards.

#

I just want these two to be happy

#

(The companion would be good too)

midnight talon
#

i haven't beat the game once yet

grand crystal
grand crystal
midnight talon
#

got the blade stuff from ares

#

#

Someone told me orpheus and eurydice before patty and as soon as i did it, it worked

oh ye i forgot it was special

#

i thought it was after a kill

grand crystal
midnight talon
#

lost citrus
#

I think so yeah, but that was many runs ago

outer dew
#

You also need a special dialogue from nyx

grand crystal
#

then buy the thing from the contractor

outer dew
#

Also how do I unlock nyx locked heart?

grand crystal
#

then you should have it

midnight talon
#

uhhh

#

#

her rage meter >:(((

outer dew
#

I didnt need their hearts capped just get them together

lost citrus
#

Yeah, they at locked hearts now. I guess it’s just more runs now

outer dew
#

I also think that even if you just get their freedom contract in the house contractor it should work

#

Someone told me that

#

I just had to get them together

midnight talon
#

screw alecto

#

i had 2 death defiance's

#

and i lost them both

#

meg: a fair first boss

#

tisiphone: harder meg and room gets smaller

#

Alecto: bullet hell

#

should i take the ambrosia back from dusa

#

will it change something

#

i know its says (she wont mind) but like

#

I wonder if the game has any special dialogue if you escape your first attempt on a new save file?

outer dew
#

I tried a fresh save once and only made it past meg

brisk trail
#

I just keep wondering if theres any secret or potentially missable dialogue

wise sparrow
#

try watching a fresh save file speedrun and skip to the end

green dune
#

sadly the speed runners usually skip the dialogue

wise sparrow
#

sadge

grand crystal
#

they talk about it in here

#

but yea you dont get to hear it

scarlet gull
#

how does curse of nausea work with hera/beowulf

outer dew
#

I didnt see any

scarlet gull
#

curse of drowning*

#

not nausea

swift mist
#

the end parts of the dusa dialogue is just awkward tbh.

#

didnt really like the way it turned out

#

why did they make zag say all that stuff lmao

light reef
#

oh wait i just saw your new message nvm

light reef
#

but i like that they're good friends! :)

swift mist
#

yeahh but its got an awkward aura to it

#

i preferred the earlier more innocent interactions

curse of drowning is incompatible with hera, it's janky with beowulf and not recommended

#

Which weapon/aspect is good for 3-10 heat?

grand crystal
#

it really depends on the heat that youre running and just preference

#

i dont think one weapon does better than others, its just skill tbh

hardy oasis
#

In low heat, basically any weapon or aspect is good.

#

It's only in higher heat levels where certain weaknesses and strengths are truly amplified

earnest flame
#

I see...🤔

hearty bramble
#

anyone else intentionally take dmg just to try and see thanatos

#

apparently if u take dmg 3+ standard encounters in a row u have a higher chance of spawning him 😳

grand crystal
#

he is my husband and i want to see him more

narrow hemlock
#

i dont think theres a chance increase, just that he has a chance to appear if youve taken damage at any point in the previous.. 3-5 chambers or so

hearty bramble
#

oh wait really?? ive been taking too much damage hahah

narrow hemlock
#

yeah no im p sure that first bit they put is already wrong

#

let me see

#

its 5 chambers. damage at any point in the previous 5 chambers

grand crystal
#

wait so if i try with pierced butterfly i just wont see him??

narrow hemlock
#

swore it was 3 once upon a time, might have been changed at some point

grand crystal
#

but i took it just for him 😭

narrow hemlock
#

his keepsake has no bearing on his appearance rate

grand crystal
#

but like its higher if i take damage in 5 chambers like you said right??

#

so im stuck with his poo poo spawn rate

narrow hemlock
#

keepsakes pretty much do as advertised on their description, they dont have hidden buffs

#

the only one i'd say might be an exception is the conch, purely because i cant remember offhand if it mentions in the desc or in the boon codex that it can be used in place of another boon for huge catch. but otherwise all keepsakes do what it says on the box. if theres no mention of upped rates, it doesnt have upped rates

grand crystal
#

ive taken pierced like once and only one time has than showed up when i had it and he was like "you have the butterfly" and im like hell yea just for you baby. I just love than if you cant tell

narrow hemlock
#

the olympians can remark on you having their keepsakes as well. thats a thing supergiant accounted for in the narrative, it doesnt affect gameplay though

grand crystal
#

i just like having the keepsake and talking to the person with it, makes me happy

honest sundial
#

Patrocles remakrs if you're wearing Achilles' keepsake and Eurydice if you're with Orpheus' one

What’s the best way to get enough nectar for everyone?

either like actively go towards eery nectar you see, and turn off dark foresight if you have it on, or just trade with the broker in the lounge

wait, the little food items are gyros right?

hollow kettle
#

yeah lmao

#

it took me so long to realize they weren't tacos

OMG SAME

#

i thought they were tacos until like a minute ago lmao

#

gyros...makes a lot more sense...

manic moat
#

what is a gyro

hearty bramble
#

its a greek meat dish

#

similar to shawarma if u know what that is

#

often served with fries which explains why it has fries next to it in game!

I always thought it was a burrito or something lol

karmic trellis

I never saw him.

narrow hemlock
#

in fact i think thats the only time he's really namedropped

#

technically zag/orpheus both did in the same convo i think thonk but that was the only time

deep parrot
#

is he ever mentioned in the zag song?

narrow hemlock
#

no

#

zeus, hera and dionysus are the only gods named in hymn to zagreus

deep parrot
brazen lagoon
#

That's perfectly viable too

#

Tbh finishing prophecies is the way to go since the rewards you get from them are pretty good most of the time

deep parrot
#

so
meg is the best companion right?
so how do I get that?

flat halo
#

Befriend her to the max

#

By offering her the best orange drinks you have to offer

deep parrot
#

no quest?

#

I know some of them have quests

brazen lagoon
#

You need to fulfill her favour

#

The specifics are a bit hazy to me so you should probably go to the wiki for that

narrow hemlock
#

all companions require unlocking heartlock first, because you need to offer ambrosia for it.

random semi meaningless question
why do the furies only have a right wing?

#

no left?

opaque socket
#

why is the lounge fireplace 765 gems

#

god damn

deep parrot
#

cuz it can be

#

the decorations are mostly meaningless

opaque socket
#

i just want the four diamonds for renovating the lounge

#

i don't even really know why now that i think about it

#

maybe i'm looking for purpose

deep parrot
#

wait

#

we get diamonds for finishing a region?

#

is it 4 for all of them?

#

each diamond usually costs 500 gems

copper canopy
#

The purpose is that ||it’s fun to decorate||

copper canopy
brazen lagoon
#

I think they do have a second wing

#

Its just not shown in the portrait

copper canopy
#

Remember Thanatos can fly without wings, it’s not something that’s actually needed.

deep parrot
#

than can fly?

#

I thought he teleported

tender fjord
#

well, i guess its more levitating 10 centimetres off the ground

copper canopy
#

^

#

If he can do that and teleport incalculable distances, I don’t think it’s a stretch to say he can fly as well.

deep parrot
#

when he levitates it is just him constantly teleporting

tender fjord

#

i maxed out my bond with thanatos

wooooooooooooo

He can play the lyre

any tips how to defeat Charon

unkempt sleet
#

Stay behind him

trail pendant
#

definitely fight him later in the run

unkempt sleet
#

If you stay in front of him you are taking damage. Dash behind him every time he attacks

trail pendant

and use your call (if you have one)

unkempt sleet

Using call is just general advice, really

Hey, I have a weird question about #h1-tech-fixes. How did Greg manage to make spacing between messages that were posted right after the other? I have been trying to get that to work, but never managed to do it. As an example, I would try to make the spacing in the next message

#

But as you can see, it didn't work

brazen lagoon
#

Shift enter

random ermine
#

I did that, it does not work

vapid narwhal
#

^

brazen lagoon
#

Enter shift

hollow hawk
#

it doesnt work

#

greg probably used blank space characters

brazen lagoon
#

Shift shift enter

warped iron
#

shift enter should work?

#

like
this

it doesnt

no

brazen lagoon

Alt f4 maybe

hollow hawk

hes not saying in one message

brazen lagoon
#

Idk

vapid narwhal

just shift enter twice

hollow hawk

he means at the beginning of his message

random ermine
#

Paper is the only one that get what I was asking about, lol

warped iron
#

oh yeah

hollow hawk
#

because ive done this before, yeah

#

use blank space characters

warped iron
#

i didn't actually read the original i was just following chat

hollow hawk
#

fullstop also works

random ermine
#

How can I use a blank space character?

hollow hawk
#

but obviously greg didnt do that

#

character map

#

on windows

#

or just google it

random ermine
#

Alright, I will look into it, thanks

#

Found it on a website. Yeah, it is an invisible character

#

For those wondering why I asked; it's just good to use for better formatting when needing to type more than 2k characters

hollow hawk
#

you can also copy what greg used if you want

random ermine
#

I did before, didn't work, but this website made it work

#

Are safe links allowed here?

#

There is an imgur link pinned, so I guess it's fine

#

And for the record, I have been in many servers, and this is the first one I notice to utilize proper formatting as this with regular text. So it is very nice to see the staff here actually pay attention to small details. Evident in the game, obviously, but this just shows it more

warped iron
#

that website is a beauty

#

doesn't just give you whitespace characters but how to use them, why, and gives examples

Tempted to just turn on god mode to complete 32 heat for that final reward

#

It's like a completely different game compared to 10+ heat lol

brazen lagoon
#

Yeah the jump from 10+ to 32 can be quite jarring lol

grand shale

10?? i barely managed 8!

I'm on my 3rd attempt, I tried to avoid EM4 as much as possible but it seems I have to just man up with that one

You don't have to do em4

I see, but the other heat options seem to just add up so much and I get killed by mobs 😂

sonic acorn
#

Hi so i was considering buying hades this lunar steam sale

#

wanted to know how replayable this game is

brazen lagoon
#

Very

#

I have like 430 hours on it

sonic acorn
#

oh

#

replayable in what sense

#

like there are so many synergies to find out

#

?

#

sorry i have a very small idea about the game and know nothing other than that the game has an excellent story and characters and also its a roguelite

#

or roguelike i forgot which is which

brazen lagoon
#

Repayable as in after you do a run you'll be like 'ill do one more' and when you look at the time 4 hours have passed

sonic acorn
#

ohhh ok

prime kraken
#

@brazen lagoon uh, yeah, that's Hades for you. I had to stop playing for awhile cause my wrists hurt from not stopping after "10 more minutes" getting reset dozens of times...😝

sonic acorn
#

at tops for an ordinary person, how many hours at tops can a person send

#

like the potential in the game

prime kraken
#

Yeah, Hades is worth every penny. If only it had multiplayer....but, I digress.

brazen lagoon
#

What would multiplayer bring tbh

sonic acorn
#

everyone speaks well of the game so i might as well just buy it lol

brazen lagoon
#

So many people talk about it but I don't see it at all

warped iron
#

i'm at 162 hours and I thought i'd stop like 40 hours ago because it was starting to get dull

#

but

#

i haven't yet

prime kraken
#

The ability to play with others.

sonic acorn
#

oh nice

prime kraken
#

Oh, I know the game isn't set up for it but the gameplay loop is so nice that it would be nice to enjoy it with friends.

warped iron
#

mp but with shared hp

#

🤔

brazen lagoon
#

Well besides the balance changes and stuff you'd have to make for multiplayer to be possible how'd it fit story and lorewise

warped iron
#

yeah i don't really see a need for mp

#

it's a good game as is

brazen lagoon
#

It's meant to be a singleplayer experience

warped iron
#

for those who still insist on multiplayer stuff, someone's been working on a multiplayer mod.

prime kraken
#

Perhaps, but it's a missed opportunity on the devs part. With any luck they'll spin the gameplay off into another title that's multiplayer.

eager kindle
warped iron
#

I'd ping said person but they're only in the modding server, not here.

prime kraken
#

Anyways, I understand there's technicalities, game lore, etc. that y'all are talking about and they're valid, but it would still be nice. 🤷🏻‍♂️

warped iron
#

It'd be nice but I feel it'd be best as a mod.

#

I don't think it fits the game as is

brazen lagoon
#

The devs themselves have stated that they made hades with a singleplayer experience in mind

prime kraken
#

Unfortunately, I've got the Switch version. Sad day.

warped iron
#

also that

brazen lagoon
#

So I don't think multiplayer will be coming anytime soon

prime kraken
#

Oh, I know, artemis.

warped iron
#

from what i've heard people have had varying success with modding switch version

#

it's not as easy as pc

#

but isn't impossible

#

now, the multiplayer thing might be impossible on switch due to technical limitations

prime kraken
#

They're unlikely to bring multiplayer to this game, but perhaps they'll listen to those who think the game play would be fun to incorporate into a multiplayer experience.

sonic acorn
#

sorry for the strange question but if im not so good at english i will still enjoy the game right

prime kraken
#

No, there's no way on the Switch.

sonic acorn
#

game seems to have bunch of dialogues

warped iron
prime kraken
#

Anyways, I'm gonna take off. Everyone have a good day and stay safe and warm.

warped iron
#

👋

warped iron
sonic acorn
#

no like i speak english

warped iron
#

oh

sonic acorn
#

would this game be ok if im not too much into dialogues

warped iron
#

yeah I skipped a lot of dialogue

brazen lagoon
#

Well the dialogue is one of the best parts of the game

halcyon oriole
#

there's a lot of dialogue, and it's good, but the game itself aside from that is still great

brazen lagoon
#

But you do you

sonic acorn
#

ill try to understand the dialogues if its not too difficult for me

halcyon oriole
#

I'm honestly impressed at how much dialogue there is and how context-aware it is. It feels very organic

sonic acorn
#

but yeah if the game besides dialogues is really good then im up for buying it

warped iron
#

I mean if you can understand most of the dialogue, the context should fill in the rest

#

it's very well done

sonic acorn
#

yup im buying it then

#

it was either this game or dark souls 2 sotfs :p

#

glad i finally reached a decision

copper canopy
#

Or Spelunky 2

warped iron
#

there were some words I didn't know because they were used to stick with a greek theme and

#

context helped a lot

copper canopy
#

I had a random idea today

sonic acorn
#

spelunky 2? never played the game before

copper canopy
#

EM5 where you have to ||face a harder Charon to get the Satyr sack||

warped iron
brazen lagoon
#

Dead cells is also a good investment

sonic acorn
#

i got dead cells on xbox

copper canopy
warped iron
#

why are we recommending games other than hades right now

#

😠

copper canopy
#

Because we clearly own Hades

sonic acorn
#

o

warped iron
copper canopy
#

So in this hypothetical EM5 ||the satyr sack is right next to Charon, but taking it is the exact same thing as stealing from Charon, hence the mandatory fight(which is harder than normal). You still get the membership card if you didn’t fight him earlier. Either way, the satyr tunnels become an optional way to get more stuff, and one path still has a fountain||

we originally thought hades would get no new updates once 1.0 hit

we were wrong!

oh what

#

thats cool

wise sparrow

surprise after surprise

sonic acorn
#

updates do have a chance then

#

im getting this game

copper canopy
#

Well they’re more like patches and fixes, not really updates

wise sparrow
#

they are more like balance updates

copper canopy
#

No new content has been added since 1.0

wise sparrow
#

not extra content

sonic acorn
#

they may release some new content in the future i really hope they do though, the game was a huge success

copper canopy

Unlike Gungeon which pretty much doubled the amount of content over its several updates

sonic acorn

maybe a v1.1 😳

well game seems interesting nonetheless so buying it :D

hazard bomb is the best hammer upgrade for rail special

and im tired of pretending its not

That's because it's not

Hazard is not the best because it does not synergise with triple cluster or rocket

yall ever just almost get softlocked cuz charon

not really

grand crystal
#

i was using zeus shield, then he shoved himself into the corner

#

for the rest of the 2nd phase he only did 1 move

#

and the 3rd one he just didnt do anything

#

then it took like 15 seconds for him to drop the membership card since he was stuck in the corner

#

it genuinely scared me i got zeus legendary half way through tart and i didnt want to be softlocked

night leaf
#

hahaha

#

thank the gods it didn't happen then

grand crystal
#

yea ;w;

#

i beat the run tho so that was cool

#

ive done 16 heat on every weapon now

night leaf
#

I lost on 9 heat today on the spear only cause i was trying to max my hermes keepsake

grand crystal

ah damn, im not a big fan of hermes keepsake to be honest

both require so much investment to be good

wicked sphinx

Does Aspect of Hestia refer to the Special as well?

its something that only affects the next bullet you fire yea

if I die in this run it's entirely my own fault

grand crystal
#

it only ever procks once and doesnt spamm it like i would like

halcyon oriole

it works well enough with attacks that hit several times

and I got the boon that makes it strike twice 30-something% of the time

Yea I only have exagryph to heat 3. The rest of my weapons are past 6

I dont use it usually either

In thinking of dumping some titan blood in it tho

I only got hidden sword to 8 heat

#

The rest are below 4

#

I like hidden sword :)

I did one run with that lol. I kept hoping for an attack speed boon

gaunt tapir
#

I get that

shrewd helm
#

Never got it but I finished the run.

halcyon oriole
grand crystal
#

and the hp just doesnt go down as fast as it should

halcyon oriole
#

I'm going to have to double check that later

#

because if true that's somewhat disappointing

grand crystal
#

like sometimes 2 of them hit but its generally just 1

shrewd helm
#

Screw exagryph anyway. Dark thirst is telling me to use Stygius again

halcyon oriole
#

I'm also not sure how that would work anyway since the special can hit multiple opponents

shrewd helm
#

Nemesis is pretty nice e

#

I've 9nly used EM 1 and 2 so far. I'm using 3 this run. This will be fun.

grand crystal
halcyon oriole

Has internal cooldown of .2 per target. (Bolt only triggers, at most, 5 times per second per enemy)

#

damn, I think you're right

grand crystal
#

chiron works with like everything else so its fine

halcyon oriole
#

I don't know if any other boons work that way

I guess it would be pretty silly if it didn't though, because it's also AoE damage
