What’s the boon that makes you breathe the biggest sigh of relief, and why is it Stubborn Roots?

unborn remnant
#

Its rare crop

tepid plover
#

Def not stubborn roots lmfao

#

That one sucks imo

terse relic
#

I like having that safety net just in case things go left.

winter harbor
#

Definitely not stubborn roots

tepid plover
#

Lmfao

winter harbor
#

by the time it kicks in I know I'm screwed anyway

tepid plover
#

^

#

If you're relying on stubborn roots, the run is kinda over already

terse relic
#

Not a reliance. A just in case kinda thing.

tepid plover
#

A waste of a boon until then

terse relic
#

But I get it: it doesn’t help until you’re in trouble.

tepid plover
#

And even then is bad, the healing is bad

#

Takes too long

#

Biggest sigh of relief is the fallen warrior

#

When you need him

runic sparrow
#

hmm

tepid plover
#

Nectar I'd say

#

Has the best upgrade

winter harbor
#

nectar or keys first

tepid plover
#

Nectar or keys yeah, I prefer nectar tho

terse relic
runic sparrow
#

yeah keys is probably a good choice

#

more rerolls

tepid plover
#

Nectar are also very rare from my experience

#

So yeah keys i guess

runic sparrow
#

oh, I forgot to turn off Extreme Measures 1

#

welp

edgy flicker
#

on hera

#

that is the biggest disappointment possible

#

especially when it happens in
styx

winter harbor
#

why can you even pom empty inside?

tepid plover
#

that moment when rare crop hits divine dash

hasty owl
#

y’all there’s no channel for the hades soundtrack

#

n i just need to rant about how amazing it is

#

like oh my god it’s so good

#

ok rant over :)

tepid plover
#

this is the channel

runic sparrow
#

the channel for discussion that has no dedicated channel

hasty owl
#

ultimate channel

exotic flame
#

How do you share bond with Hypnos? I have bonds with all other characters.

runic sparrow
winter harbor
#

obviously get the exposed

unborn remnant
#

#

runic sparrow
#

and that's a free barrier every 20 seconds

winter harbor
#

hardy oasis
#

orange boon go brrrrrrr

runic sparrow
#

Alright, can we get a 4 streak?

tepid plover
#

I still want a physical codex sgg pls

hollow kettle
#

According to Meg I’ve beaten her 50 times 😊

hearty bramble
tepid plover
#

right?

grand crystal
#

yk i look at the art for the codex in game and im like, "damn they really did just revamp zia's dad's notebook from bastion"

jagged galleon
#

a few questions about late game fights/grind. I have gotten charon's fight TWICE in 60 hours of gameplay, and never again. Is it possible to happen on the final store? Also, why did I "upgrade" from 3 possible rooms to fish on the surface to 1? that's honestly too bad and with my luck, i'm never fishing the common fish ever

grand crystal
#

it sucks only having 1 chance for it now and id love to physically tend to moms garden but like

half zephyr
#

you gotta be bad to be good at getting the commons

grand crystal
#

we cant ;w;

half zephyr
#

o_o
I just did sunken treasure and it dropped a diamond on me

and it was basic rarity too

#

I didn't know it could do that

mossy finch
#

I've played the lyre in Zagerus' bedroom well over 210 times, but he isnt saying anything about how he's learnt to play the lyre, does anyone know what im supposed to do?

grand crystal
mossy finch
#

I was just wondering because i read the wiki on the fated list of minor prophecies and it said once i have the gift of song unlocked i had to wait until Zagerus comments that he can play

jagged galleon
#

for the lyre i knew it would be a stupid number so I just play it until he says some quote twice for every run lol

#

worked and wasnt as annoying as playing it 200 times in a row

jagged galleon
#

i never get the mid shops :/

#

welp now i know

grand crystal
#

and i mean right after

jagged galleon
#

but its fine to fight king rat and hades?

grand crystal
#

rat is a joke

#

ez fight

jagged galleon
#

hes a boss, dont care

grand crystal
#

plus if you got rat then you have the well still left

#

its not like you kill rat for sack

jagged galleon
#

and they could just have added a room after charon

half zephyr
#

Today is a truly GREAT day!!
||I see your prideful fall down from the heavens to the flames||

jagged galleon
#

ggs, im still waiting for some of the quotes lol

grand crystal
half zephyr
#

grand crystal
#

"then along game zeus and he huuuurrrrled his lightning bolt"

#

half zephyr
#

half zephyr
#

ancient vigil
#

half zephyr
#

I caught my last fish last run

#

half zephyr
modern arch

#

And character stories

half zephyr
#

unborn remnant
#

half zephyr
#

well, I already messed up

ancient vigil
#

i'm doing an 8 one rn for s and giggles

half zephyr

I was gonna put ares on cast, but forgot myself since I just got off an aphro heavy run, so I got aphro cast instead MelridgeFacePalm

modern arch
#

Yeah I’m trying to get better plus finished runs

half zephyr
#

#

so now I'm just saying wth & being random-ish

modern arch

I only ever used Dionysus cast on Hera and Beowulf lol

half zephyr
#

jagged galleon
#

half zephyr
#

#

animation is just a big boulder dropping on the enemy hehe

modern arch
#

Haha he has no idea who skelly is...

tepid plover
#

Excuse me? Who are you calling "just a big boulder"???

half zephyr
#

so when you use it on hades it just looks like a big rock falls on his head & knocks him out if you time it right

ancient vigil
#

oh i finished chaos' fates thing too

half zephyr
tepid plover
#

Thats bouldy for you ok?

#

Not just a big boulder

half zephyr
#

no it's not

tepid plover
half zephyr
#

it's SHADY

#

companion Shady

tepid plover
#

Shady is the companion

#

We literally drop bouldy

#

Well we don't, sisyphus does

half zephyr
#

still, I was describing the animation

tepid plover
#

Yhats disrespectful

half zephyr
#

and the animation is just a big boulder dropping down

tepid plover
#

Bouldy isn't just a boulder

half zephyr
#

it's 2 am

ancient vigil
#

oh my god the 8th heat statue

unborn remnant
#

The best way to kill him

charred anchor
#

unborn remnant
#

a cultured way

half zephyr
#

for crying out loud I didn't even call Hades by name!

tepid plover
#

Well bouldy isn't hades

#

Bouldy is superior

ancient vigil
#

ok calling bouldy a boulder or whatever isn't that deep

tepid plover
#

Wow

ancient vigil
#

tepid plover
#

The disrespect

unborn remnant
#

"no one around here likes this stuff but me" poor zag

We need a DLC where Zag is playing board games with his friends but nope ain't getting that shadegrief

grand crystal
#

hey yall so im planning to draw red in zags outfit(thank from the inspiration of the artist that did what my pfp is) and boxer in thans outfit and i need good references for the lower half of zag and than

#

if yall could help it would be greatly appreciated!squirtyay

dark lark

keen totem
#

Can someone help me? Hypnos just won't chat with me anymore :( Everytime I come back he just goes "Hey welcome back" and Idk what to do to unlock his lil heart

tepid plover
#

Talk to than

keen totem
#

Oh? :O

tepid plover
#

Yeah?

keen totem
#

I'll try! I've been talking a lot with him but do far nothing :(

tepid plover
#

Cause than got his own thing with than, keep trying

keen totem
#

I thought if I kept dying to random enemies he'd talk more xD

tepid plover
#

Is than giving you recycled lines as well?

eager kindle
# tepid plover You talk to him a lot

I find that talking to him a lot doesn't really trigger skelly's employer dialogue. ||You have to use his keepsake then run into Hermes to trigger some new dialogue with Skelly||

tepid plover
keen totem
#

Not yet, but he only mentioned Hypnos twice I think and it's been a while already

tepid plover
#

And it was at the very beginning, skelly was the 2nd keepsake I got

eager kindle
#

you probably ran into ||Hermes|| then when you used that keepsake. I was only getting recycled lines at my 100th clear

tepid plover
#

Lol, I was definitely not talking about who employed skelly back then

#

He was still telling me to break down the place and smack people against the walls

eager kindle
#

Yes

#

Idk

#

That triggered it for me

tepid plover
#

I guess a mere coincidence

#

Never read anything about a requirement for that

eager kindle
#

I was literally getting recycled lines from Skelly about 50 clears in

#

And got the dialogue in my 100th clear when I saw the youtube video and tried using his keepsake

tepid plover
#

Maybe you had to ask to everyone zag asks if they know who skelly is

eager kindle
#

Yeah I was done with that

#

Hermes was the last one

tepid plover
#

Interesting

eager kindle
#

I wouldn't have gotten it if I didn't get semi-spoiled by that youtube video 😂

#

I didn't use Skelly's keepsake in the early biomes

YES I finally beat em4 hades!

charred anchor
#

he doesnt wear shoes, his feet are on fire

grand crystal

tepid plover

You can see it better on hades

So I didn’t really realize this until it was pointed out to me but...

#

Can we all take a moment to appreciate the fact that Hestia, goddess of the hearth and familial love, and one of the most caring of all the gods, once wielded a cursed gun of untold destructive power?

hi sorry just a question! If i get 1 boon from a god and then purge it away, is that god still part of my 4 god pool?

median nacelle
#

I just played a run, and at the store in Elysium I bought health and a Pom and then began taking 5 damage every two seconds until all lives were gone. I have no idea why. What did I do?

tepid plover
#

Tight deadline

median nacelle
#

Ahh so I ran out of time? I didn't notice lol damn it. I don't think that's happened before

tepid plover
#

Yeah tight deadline starts hurting once time is out

#

Until you're dead or move on regions

terse relic
#

I only went over once: my first time doing Tight Deadline, which was also the first time in 15 runs or so that I had to do all five passageways. Delightful.

tepid plover
#

Not it adds whatever time you had left

#

Plus the new one

#

Before it would reset squirtmeh

#

Don't need to heal if the enemies are dead squirtdevious

terse relic
tepid plover
#

Ok let's say you have 2 mins left, and you move on, it will add 7 for example, now you have 9

terse relic
#

If you have nine minutes normally, and you go over by a minute, do you start the next region with eight or nine minutes?

tepid plover
#

It will give you 9 at the next region

terse relic
#

Ah, OK. Thanks.

tepid plover
#

You just take that dmg

terse relic
#

When it happened, I panicked and got super aggressive, which only made me take more damage. Not that it would have mattered; I think I had something like 45 seconds left going into it.

tepid plover
#

I cant use tight deadline

#

Makes me anxious

hasty owl
#

i used it for the first time just now

terse relic
#

When I keep moving up in heat, that’ll probably be last for me. Or close.

hasty owl
#

i was so freaked out by the time i ended up rushing like crazy and beating my best time by 8 minutes lol

tepid plover
#

Nice

hasty owl
#

yeah i only did it for the prophecy

median nacelle
#

My first clear ever was like 26 minutes, so that was the first heat I added because I had plenty of time left

hasty owl
#

i’m a pretty slow player ngl

tepid plover
#

Same

hasty owl
#

my average clear is like 28 min

Anyway thanks all

tepid plover
#

Now slow, but I like to take my time

hasty owl
#

i remeber once i took this shield upgrade from deadalus

#

it was so painfully slow

tepid plover
#

My pleasure

hasty owl
#

i just walked directly into lava in asphodel so i could go back to the house

tepid plover
#

I'll have to go with the painful way

hasty owl

i’m 100 runs in and i just wanna ask anyone more experienced than me

#

tepid plover

No

granite ether
#

she learns to say ||Zagreus|| :3

tepid plover
#

She does say ||zagreus|| at one point

#

Ah aggy beat me to it

hasty owl
#

yeah i got that a while ago

#

but then zag tries to teach her friends and happy

#

and i am very emotionally invested in that storyline

terse relic
#

I’m 90 runs in and don’t have that bit yet. Guessing it’ll come soon.

hasty owl
#

oops sorry

#

probably should have used spoiler text

terse relic
#

No worries. I don’t mind spoilers.

granite ether
#

ngl I jumped in joy and sqweed simultaneously when tisi learnt ||say zay Zagreus' name||

hasty owl
#

i think it might only happen once you’ve enabled extreme measures 1 if that’s relevant

tepid plover
#

This channel is spoiler free now

hasty owl
#

right 🥺🥺🥺

#

made me legitimately giggle

tepid plover
#

Welcome***

#

Not free

#

What am I saying

Yes

Of course. Nothing to swing on.

hasty owl

spoiler: it is revealed on your 12000th run that theseus is a nickname. his real name is thesaurus

tepid plover
#

Extreme measures 4 has no effect on furies

#

Only em1

hasty owl
#

there should be an em for styx

#

like instead of tiny vermin you fight mediocre vermin

#

a rat w spiked armour

tepid plover
#

Em only affects the last boss of each region

heavy hound
#

Em4 effects every boss

#

Em3 affects theseus lernie furies

#

Em4 affects all of those plus hades

terse relic
tepid plover
#

I dont think it has anything to do with em

#

Just progress the story

maybe you need to talk to meg a lot

#

hello friends, i was brought in here wondering if there was a place to report bugs? i keep managing to slow asterius (usually with stacks of chill) enough in his mini boss fight that the door closes before he exits

tepid plover
#

What's the bug exactly

#

Is just a visual thing, chill stays on him, doesn't really affect anything

hasty owl
#

if you’re in windows you can report bugs in game with f10

#

if you’re on mac on you can do it through supergiants website

#

i think you’re meant to have footage tho

tepid plover
#

I think I know what they are talking about

#

And im pretty sure they are aware of it

#

Just not really that big of a deal

#

Well actually no

#

If the door closes before

#

I dont think he actually ever slowed for me

#

Like he had the white chill aura, but he moved at the same speed

tepid plover
grand crystal
#

(charon got stuck in the corner for me once and almost softlocked the run but i dont have footage :3)

sly idol
#

oh sweet, thank you both for the quick answers and for the tip about f10
it is basically a visual thing -- he just like walks straight through the closed door

tepid plover
#

Hes just built different

#

Dont think that door can stop him

brazen lagoon
#

Technically asterius is a shade so maybe he can just do shade stuff

tepid plover
grand crystal
#

like i cant just walk through him

#

or any of the elysium shades

tepid plover
#

Again, we trying to put logic in an underworld game

brazen lagoon
#

He shades when he pleases

grand crystal
narrow hemlock
# grand crystal then why is he solid??

video game logic more than anything lol to emphasize that this character is important compared to all the faceless ones. achilles, orpheus and eurydice are shades too but are solid

dang they really did you like that

acoustic quartz

#

for that alone i bought another set of cards to get lvl 2, "shade"

acoustic quartz
#

bruh

tepid plover
#

And thats marketing ladies and gents

acoustic quartz
#

the steam money sucking tactics are working

hearty bramble

its true 😔

narrow hemlock
#

i had lv5 badge the the first day drops were available lmao

#

feel free to shame me

acoustic quartz
#

i'm considering getting the hades badge

#

but i only have 3 of the cards and im out of drops so i have to spend more money 😔

hearty bramble
#

they are cheapish on the market which is good if u have some extra change in ur steam wallet!

granite ether
#

there's no shame in that tatz klinkCozy

acoustic quartz

i do have some spare steam wallet but at the same time i kinda want to save for sales and stuff since i'm not gonna be able to get steam wallet for quite a while

hello everyone

#

i just did a run with hidden bow aspect and hoo wee

#

it’s nuts

rapid forum
#

hidden bow ftw

vapid robin
#

although

#

i found out that zagreus makes a noise when he pulls back on the bow and i can’t ignore it anymore 😭

copper canopy
#

So, without telling me who, do you need to summon Skelly somewhere specific in a run to find out who his employer is? Yes or no?

acoustic quartz
#

no i just equipped his keepsake during a run and his employer made a comment about it

copper canopy
#

WAIT

acoustic quartz
#

then once i talked to skelly it becomes obvious

copper canopy
#

Okay thanks

runic parrot
#

equip his keepsake during a run

copper canopy
#

Don’t say anything else

runic parrot
#

thats all ill say

acoustic quartz
#

i actually just found it out by chance earlier lmao

copper canopy
#

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

Well I only equip it if I need to in Styx

#

So yeah wouldn’t have found that out

#

I did have fun summoning places though

rapid forum
#

OKAY THANKS FOR THE HINT

vapid robin
#

u can find out who employs skelly?

copper canopy
#

Thanatos: “Is he supposed to help?”
Skelly: “Hey Thanatos, big fan!”

vapid robin
#

that is news to me LOL

copper canopy
rapid forum
#

I've played over 200 hours

#

that is news to me

vapid robin
#

do i need his keepsake or his companion?

copper canopy
vapid robin
#

hmm ok

copper canopy
#

Skelly’s thoughts on ||the surface||:
“The air feels weird up here!”

#

Skelly after beating ||Hades|| and him surviving:
“So uh, that happened...”

#

Skelly to Theseus:
“Your mama presses olive oil!”

#

“Gee I sure hope I don’t die and drop all this loot!”

acoustic quartz
#

guys who is the last standard keepsake from?

#

im missing 2 rn

#

i know one is ||demeter||

#

but theres still the final slot next to broken spearpoint

#

is it from ||persephone||?

copper canopy
#

You’ll find out if you keep playing the game.

#

It’ll become clear

acoustic quartz
#

well ok then

#

I'll just keep attempting to beat a run

copper canopy
#

If you haven’t even cleared it once then just a minor warning; it’ll be awhile

#

Just forget about it for now

acoustic quartz
#

man........

#

really hope i stop sucking soon

Will Hades ever come to other platforms?
We launched v1.0 of Hades only on Nintendo Switch, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. We'll be considering opportunities to bring the game to additional platforms down the line. Thank you for your interest.

via #hades-faq

#

chances are there will be other ports but it may be a while for them. either way there is no official word beyond "we'll consider it"

#

i would assume playstation is a given at some point, since all previous titles had playstation releases but there's no telling when that may happen. hades was made with a switch port in mind from the start

hearty bramble
#

man, hades is such a Sexy game. not even just the characters, but like everything. its all so smooth and crisp and beautiful, everything meshes together so nicely, it feels snappy and quick, like wow

acoustic quartz
#

yea the amount of detail in the game is just impressive tbh

hearty bramble
#

yeah!! there is so much love and soul put into it

vapid robin
acoustic quartz
#

haha yea thanks

#

im kinda self concious cuz im 20 hours in and still havent beaten a run

vapid robin
#

it’s ok, the point of the game is to have fun

#

and everyone in this server at least is really nice to beginners hehe

acoustic quartz
#

yea that is true lmao

#

this server is one of the chillest ive been in

vapid robin
#

in the beginning it’s a good idea to focus on the mirror talents

acoustic quartz
#

thats what im doing rn

#

already unlocked every section just need the darkness to use it

vapid robin
#

where’s the furthest you’ve gotten?

acoustic quartz
#

chamber 45 i think?

#

i made it to styx

#

but died to giant rat

vapid robin
#

oh ok nice! you’re really close

acoustic quartz
#

yea but tbh im kinda worried about fighting theseus again lmao

vapid robin
#

the rats are annoying but i like to use ranged weapons/cast to deal with them so i don’t accidentally step in poison

#

theseus gets pretty easy imo once u figure out his fight patterns

#

like i’m sure you’ve seen people say to target asterius first

#

and knowing that theseus turns around right after he throws his spear at you is also useful

acoustic quartz
#

yea thats what i did

#

honestly yea after i beat asterius it was pretty easy

#

but still kinda worried lmao

vapid robin
#

one thing i did that helped me get my first clear is taking a god’s call and leveling the heck out of it

#

especially ones that are AOE damage

acoustic quartz
#

ah okok

#

do you have any call recommendations?

vapid robin
#

hmmm

acoustic quartz
#

out of the ones I've tried i think i like artemis the most

vapid robin
#

i like ares, poseidon, zeus, and athena

#

and dionysus i think too but not as much

tame loom
#

a bit late but I don't think I beat my first run until like 25 hours in

vapid robin
#

and when i take a call i like to try to get quick favor from hermes

#

fills the gauge automatically

acoustic quartz
#

ok then I'll try that out if i get a call

#

the builds im doing currently are focusing on getting duo boons lmao

vapid robin
#

lolol i feel you

#

i’m trying to get the legendary ones

acoustic quartz
#

the legendary ones seem good tbh

#

i need to get more darkness for the ability that adds the chances to get the better boons tbh

acoustic quartz
vapid robin
#

it will take u as long as it takes u

#

and it’s different for everyone

acoustic quartz
#

i see

#

yea tbh im just having fun playing and discovering new stuff by chance

vapid robin
#

yeah! that’s the best part of the game imo

#

tbh half the time i would go on runs to farm crystals so i could deck out the house of hades

#

the darker thirst upgrade is really good for that

acoustic quartz
#

yea i always pick the weapon with darker thirst for my runs

#

hope i get some more titan blood soon cuz i really wanna try the other weapon aspects

vapid robin
#

the prophecies are rly good for titan blood

acoustic quartz
#

oh yea the prophecies

#

i have like 1 or 2 boons in most of the god prophecies but never seem to get the boons i need 😔

vapid robin
#

have u been gifting nectar to the gods

#

their keepsakes help imo

acoustic quartz
#

yea i have

vapid robin
#

also having fated authority + the codex upgrade also rly helps

acoustic quartz
#

i have the codex upgrade too but not fated authority

#

thats from the mirror right?

vapid robin
#

ye it’s the very last one

#

it’s the one that let’s you reroll options for boons

acoustic quartz
#

oh wow thats pretty good

vapid robin
#

yeah it’s rly expensive though for each rank LOL

#

but worth it

acoustic quartz
#

well if i really need it

#

i can always reset darkness

vapid robin
#

true i did re-spec a couple times

#

bc i rly@wanted all three death defiance’s LOL

acoustic quartz
#

hahahaha yea i reset for death defiances too

tepid plover
acoustic quartz
#

but the price gap per rank is big bruh

vapid robin
acoustic quartz
vapid robin
#

i think i did a big respec after i fulfilled the prophecy of clearing with all the mirror talents

#

clearing with stubborn defiance...shadeembarassed

tepid plover
#

Lol I have respec like 10 times

acoustic quartz
#

first time i respec i did it by accident lmao

#

i saw the icon and was like "ooo what does this button do"

vapid robin
#

LOL

acoustic quartz
#

i was about to buy exagryph and had exact amount of keys too 😔

#

so i had to grind for another key lmao

vapid robin
#

ok tbh everyone loves exagryph and i don’t get the hype

acoustic quartz
#

i mean its meh imo

vapid robin
#

using hidden aspect makes it bearable but i hate it anyways

#

i rly like sword and spear and hidden aspect bow

runic parrot
#

every aspect of exa is powerful

#

apart from zag but eh

acoustic quartz
#

btw are hidden aspects only available after beating a run

vapid robin
#

different characters will tell u for different weapons and you’ll know you have it when you get a prophecy that says to reach the surface with the hidden aspect of the weapon

#

and u just reveal it to see what the hidden aspect is

acoustic quartz
#

ah so i just have to keep talking to everyone

vapid robin
#

yeah

#

not sure if it is dependent on relationships or not but you’ll get them

#

i am at like 60-70 hours and i just got them all

#

and u use titan blood to unlock+upgrade like normal

acoustic quartz
#

i really need a way to farm titan blood soon then

#

you can get it by fishing right

vapid robin
#

unfortunately not

#

titan blood is only thru prophecy, bounty, or the broker

#

or in styx u can buy it sometimes

acoustic quartz
#

ah i see

vapid robin
#

fishing rewards are crystal, darkness, nectar, and ambrosia depending on where u catch it

acoustic quartz
#

oh ok then

#

speaking of fishing, i cant get the timing right

manic moat
#

can you get the huge catch legendary other than that one time where it's obligatory

vapid robin
#

so the next one u know it will be a bite

vapid robin
#

though i haven’t gotten it since then

manic moat
#

same

acoustic quartz
vapid robin
#

if it just goes down and back up then you’ll get a too early prompt

#

if u have ever fished in animal crossing or something like that i’d advise u to treat it the same way hehe

#

focus more on audio cues over visual

acoustic quartz
#

i see

#

i was totally clueless about it lmao thanks a lot

manic moat
#

yea I used to get that early thing all the time when I didn't know that the first few time are fake

vapid robin
#

it’s pretty easy once you get the hang of it

#

like literally the least of your worries LOL

#

also remember that u can fish in chaos too

#

which i did not know until i googled fishing rewards

acoustic quartz
#

bruh fishing in the void

vapid robin
#

i know

#

bruh moment

acoustic quartz
#

the chaos fish

#

wonder how they taste

vapid robin
#

u take a bite and immediately u get sucked into the void

acoustic quartz
#

you look the mirror and your tongue is just a black hole

vapid robin
#

LOL

#

wait so

#

do u have all the weapons unlocked

acoustic quartz
#

yes

#

so far my faves are the spear and shield

flat halo
#

I have finally done it

#

Finally took down 10 heat

#

Super D is hard

#

Thank god for Athena legendary

hollow hawk
#

why are you doing em4 at 10 heat wtf

flat halo
#

I mean

#

The math checks out

#

1+2+3+4

#

=10

hollow hawk
#

yeah but the logic doesnt lol

#

people dont take em4 at like 50 heat

#

and youre taking it at 10

flat halo
#

Which is plain Super Dad

#

that's the minimum heat to face him

hollow hawk
#

the easiest 10 heat is probably td2+em2+mm+bp+LC 1

flat halo
#

I see

hollow hawk
#

unless youre doing em4 just for the experience of it

#

dont take it

flat halo
#

^

#

And yeah, super dad is pretty darn hard

#

To take "casually"

manic moat
#

I take jury summons and damage control

flat halo
#

what's the easiest 16 heat

hollow hawk
#

@manic moat jury summons and DC can be very hard on some weapons

#

lc, in comparision, is much much easier

manic moat
#

hmm

#

I'll try it out

hollow hawk
manic moat
#

is lasting consequences the reason why people take the extra helth from darkness instead of cthonic vitality

hollow hawk
#

not really no

#

i dont think many people take dark regen

manic moat
#

yea dark regen makes no sense

#

especially with the existence of styx

hollow hawk
#

darkness is the worst room reward+if youre going for 16 heat and you havent cleared it before, you wont be getting darkness from bosses

#

though, with LC1, your cthonic vitality healing goes down to 2

#

with LC4, it goes down to 0

#

so it literally doesnt do anything

#

which is probably why dark regen works

manic moat
#

also why is 16 heat and then 32 heat considered the usual heat setups, like do people just not do the heats in between

manic moat
#

wai

#

with LC4

#

no health increase at all

flat halo
#

@manic moat Skelly Statue reward breakpoint

manic moat
#

ah righ

hollow hawk
#

skelly statues and also because past 20 heat you dont get bounties

#

and also because by the time youre doing 16 heat, you will probably have no use for bounties

#

so it doesnt make sense to do 17, 18, etc

flat halo
#

I see

#

I already find the blood not as necessary

#

Since I unlocked what I wanted

#

Personally

#

Isn't Forced Overtime kinda hard

vapid narwhal
#

FO1 arent bad

hollow hawk
#

fo2 is

#

but fo1 isnt much of a change after like 2-3 runs with it

vapid narwhal
#

default enemy attack and movement speed are kinda slow, FO1 isnt a significant change in itself

#

(until you run into a Chariot heavy Elysium seed)

flat halo
#

I mean, I still sometimes die at 9-10 heat

#

5% of the time

vapid narwhal
#

at 9-10 you dont need FO

hollow hawk
hushed pumice
#

The easiest pact option is middle management

vapid narwhal
#

EM3 TD2 whatever +1 you want

hushed pumice
#

Td2 is pretty easy too

hollow hawk
#

middle management literally doesnt change anything if you know how to meg at minibosses

hushed pumice
#

Underworld customs is also not an issue

vapid narwhal
#

power couple tho

hollow hawk
#

the powercouple fight can get annoying though with mm

#

yeah

#

exactly

#

ive lost runs to that miniboss with mm :(

vapid narwhal
#

MM+FO2 power couple killed 4 of my 32 attempts

hushed pumice
#

Power couple is the easiest boss

#

You just summon when they're bunched up

hollow hawk
#

not if you have a meelee weapon with a bad build and mess up the meg because of FO

hushed pumice
#

If you fail you fail

#

But it's not difficult or complicated to just dash where gorgon teleports, bait the skull and hit summon

hollow hawk
#

but otherwise quite easy yeah

dapper crypt
#

So. Had an awesome build. Ended by Tiny Vermin on reaching Styx for the first time.

flat halo
#

How would you guys rank room rewards

dapper crypt
#

Feels real bad lol. So any suggestion for Ambriosa? Is it easy to acquire?

flat halo
#

eventually, yes

#

overflowing

#

Key would be the fated list of prophecies

#

Try the mirror bonus of duos-legendary

#

And do runs that explore random boons/daedalus hammers

#

While focusing on timing fundamentals to dodge enemy attacks

#

And if you find yourself having an easier time somehow, run subpar (or rarely used) keepsakes to level them up

#

Run 85, essentially maxed keepsakes

#

Few hearts left, and only heat to go

#

Overall, to sum it up: hunt for god's specific boons and give out nectars for keepsakes and relationship

dapper crypt
#

Right, so first time should I sell it or wait for Charon to be chill AF?

#

Or Chaos?

flat halo
#

Sell Ambrosia you mean?

graceful flicker
#

Keep your Ambrosia

flat halo
#

Yeah, keep it

graceful flicker
#

The time it's overflowing is way past when you need it

#

So it's much better to have it stockpiled for then.

modest lantern
#

||yo what happened to the pinned message in spoiler chat for the hidden aspects?||

dapper crypt
#

Right, each run is giving me plenty of Darkness anyhow

flat halo
#

I do suggest pushing relationship with certain characters to the max for a special bonus

#

||Meg, Thanatos, Skelly, or Dusa. At least 1 of them||

graceful flicker
#

And literally there's nothing more valuable than ambrosia you could otherwise spend it on so

dapper crypt
#

True, Skelly & Dusa seem interesting enough

flat halo
#

They are pretty fun to hang out around, boyo

dapper crypt
#

Charon's been my main squeeze for a bit but they can go for it too

hollow hawk
#

@modest lantern its still there

terse relic
# hollow hawk people dont take em4 at like 50 heat

It makes sense, because at 50 Heat, you’ve probably got Timed Deadline on. I did my first 10 Heat run the other day on EM4, and it wasn’t so much worse to me. Though having Divine Dash helped a lot.

#

And... now that I think about it, I had Chiron for that EM4 run. Maybe it won’t go so well with a different build.

#

Do Dusa’s projectiles pierce?

craggy barn
#

nope

Without spoilers, can someone give me a hint as to how to unlock the rest of the hearts with Hermes? He's the only one I haven't maxed yet because of this.

static wraith
#

Had a weird dream last night, was playing Hades and entered a chamber. The chamber contained a few enemies and I cleared them as usual. Then I spotted a Trove, then another, and then another one

#

And each trove you open Hades gets increasingly angrier and the music gets more and more intense

#

But the reward is nice tho

#

I wonder if we can have a room with multiple Troves

gaunt tapir
#

I wonder if you can get a Well of Charon, the Pool to purge boons, an infernal trove, a chaos gate, a fishing point and an erebrus gate all in the same room

static wraith
#

I once got a Chaos and Erebus portal, a trove, and a hammer for the next chamber reward

#

All in the same chamber

gaunt tapir
#

damn

I ended up choosing Chaos I think
