Gn y’all
grand crystal
goodnight pine
desert meadow
support fire
Eyyyyy
sudden patrol
that's literal free damage
rapid acorn
Texas fang: out
sudden patrol
support fire+chiron=op
desert meadow
Might as well grab pressure points for the heck of it too
sudden patrol
only way to improve the run is to take the only fun and useful boon from the worst goddess
if by the worst goddess I mean athena
desert meadow
Pffft
desert meadow
I wouldn’t call her boons bad, she’s just not flashy
sudden patrol
aphro only slightly decreases damage which is more interesting than invincibility
athena makes tanking damage too easy imo
desert meadow
I mean, yeah, but Athena greater call is amazing
desert meadow
Getting a dd back is nice at least
sudden patrol
I'm gonna use the athena boon in elysium simply for DD
vapid narwhal
her attacks and special enables merciful end, and that's enough of a reason
desert meadow
^
sudden patrol
that one is decent but not good if you're not late
basically a worse patro imo
merciful end is arte+athena, right?
desert meadow
Ares Athena
vapid narwhal
ares+ athena
desert meadow
You need either Ares attack or special and either Athena attack or special for it.
vapid narwhal
yeah athena dash doesnt enable it
sudden patrol
hm, my only issue is health
I'm basically the definition of a glass cannon
I only have 225 health, gonna try to get more
sudden patrol
But not great
desert meadow
I normally have less then that recently
sudden patrol
I like to get up close and personal with chiron for some reason and I take lots of damage
vapid narwhal
at Elysium? totally in a good spot
vapid narwhal
well you should keep your distance with a bow
sudden patrol
ikik
desert meadow
yeah athena dash doesnt enable it
It does at least trigger ME once you have it though, right?
vapid narwhal
yep it does
runic parrot
its weird that only athena attack and special are prereqs for me
i get pulling out the dash because that would be pretty op
but why not the cast or the aid
desert meadow
Cast seems inefficient to trigger ME often
pliant hull
well you should keep your distance with a bow
Til you go crazy and pick up Flurry+Point Blank Shot
desert meadow
And aid would just make you stand there and punch things for huge damage
grand crystal
Cast seems inefficient to trigger ME often
yea dash/special(wep dependant) is the best
vapid narwhal
those are also irrelevant for Chiron anyway
grand crystal
Til you go crazy and pick up Flurry+Point Blank Shot
or triple + point blank
pliant hull
Who cares about efficiency til you get to high heat strategies.
grand crystal
me over here whos beaten 45 heat
runic parrot
ok? but i wasnt talking about that
pliant hull
or triple + point blank
Aspect of Hera on top
desert meadow
I think they were trying for this to be something you have to use a few moves well together for one to use right, so making the prereqs limited gets that idea across more?
grand crystal
Aspect of Hera on top
rama best imo
pliant hull
I've yet to try out Rama. Hera's just fun.
grand crystal
rama makes so much heat free, deals soo much damage
sudden patrol
btw fun fact than centaur hearts aren't affected by life affirmation
so wtf is it that he gives you
grand crystal
well its not the room reward
pliant hull
Get Demeter casts with Infernal Soul; feels real good
grand crystal
thats why it isnt affected
sudden patrol
the hearts of the people he harvested?
vapid narwhal
life affirmation has some exceptions
runic parrot
life affirmation specifically states "room reward"
desert meadow
Yeah, his heart is always the standard
sudden patrol
ik but still
runic parrot
I think they were trying for this to be something you have to use a few moves we...
yeah that makes sense i think
sudden patrol
funnier to imagine that he just ripped out the hearts of some soul he transported and gave it to zag
grand crystal
still a free heart tho :3
desert meadow
funnier to imagine that he just ripped out the hearts of some soul he transporte...
Than murders centaurs for fun as gifts then?
runic parrot
which centaurs are zag taking these from
grand crystal
so on high heat ill for sure take it if i can
vapid narwhal
free heart is a free heart
you dont even need to beat him, matching him also counts
sudden patrol
Than murders centaurs for fun as gifts then?
he's death incarnate, he probably does
sudden patrol
welp
time to fight theseus and the minotaur
but I think I have it
cuz i did get DD
beat him
them
only used 1 dd
sudden patrol
died to the second phase of hades with him having like 1000 health left
AHHH
I HATE THIS SO MUCH
EVEN WITH AN OP BUILD I STILL LOST
WHY DOES THIS GAME HATE ME SO MUCH
IM JUST GONNA GO PLAY POKEMON OR SOMETHING
WHERE I DONT DIE TO THE VERY FINAL PHASE OF THE FINAL BOSS EVEN WHEN I HAVE AN INSANE BUILD
what's the point of playing if I die every single time
and if thanatos will never spawn
what's the point of saving this ambrosia
brazen lagoon
just get good lole xd
sudden patrol
I can't get good when hades curbstomps me every single goddamn time I try to make a fun powerful build
guess I'm going to go back to unfun, uninteresting dps builds based around aphro
weak spruce
arthur is pissing me off
wooden karma
I almost beat hades twice
I can consistently reach him now, but I die on second phase
weak spruce
how many dds ?
plucky sonnet
does the shared suffering on aspect of rama proc doom?
wooden karma
I mean; Hades is pretty fair as fair as far as rogue-like final bosses are concerned
He ain’t no mithrix thats for sure
Because he can’t one-shot you 5 seconds into the fight if you guess wrong
plucky sonnet
answer: no it does not
weak spruce
aspect of bruh
ionic trail
ahahahahah
was running talos
also just unlocked hidden
special dashing is hard with kbm
i'm trying to see if mapping to the side button on my mouse would work well
weak spruce
yea I have problems with space+q
vapid narwhal
I dont usually play with KBM but I have special on right click, cast on mid mouse button and I think call on Q
runic parrot
i have cast on scrolldown
i think its much better for me
but yeah i wish double binding was a thing
flurry cast doesnt rly work with my setup
weak spruce
got a duo boon for revenge attacks but I have no revenge boons
like why do you give it even
oh well 1 more for the fade list
hasty owl
got a duo boon for revenge attacks but I have no revenge boons
to have it offered i think you need revenge boons
rapid forum
more damage source 
hasty owl
so you probably have two you haven’t noticed
weak spruce
I completely forgot I even picked it
hasty owl
most likely curse of vengeance and heaven’s vengeance
try and pick these up if u can^
having +300 damage every 3 seconds is pretty nice
hasty owl

manic moat
you mean maim, and yea I regularly switch up my keybinds depending on the build and what I'm going to be using a lot
weak spruce
yes maim sry
only used that aspect once and that's actually when I realized shift+q is just not working for me
manic moat
yea lmao
weak spruce
does heightened security affect enemies too ?
weak spruce
no like do the enemies also get hit for +400% dmg
weak spruce
okay thanks
runic parrot
oh yeah
it does
its traps deal 400% dmg, not "400% damage to you"
that's why it only costs 1 heat
technically you can use it to hurt enemies too
weak spruce
well that's fairer
weak spruce
I don't think I will yea
traps are already a pain in the ass
esp. in styx
just need that 15 titan blood
also underworld customs lol I bet nobody picks this for high heat runs either
runic parrot
lol high heat by definition you have to pick a lot of pacts
but people dont generally use it at around 10-30 i think
pliant hull
I assume people have had plenty of talks on "Easiest heats to stack" before?
agile saddle
so i have not been in the loop for a while. have they stated if there will be continued updates or any dlc or is this it?

There will likely be small updates on a regular basis, but Supergiant have never been known to do DLC so that’s highly unlikely.
agile saddle
damn. would be cool to see other gods
hollow hawk
I assume people have had plenty of talks on "Easiest heats to stack" before?
Yep, there's a pin in #h1-high-heat-strategies about which heat setup is the best
pliant hull
Danke
runic parrot
fr?
it is as i recall
though i could be wrong.
i dont run hs anymore lol turns out i was wrong and it was a liability
hollow hawk
im pretty sure it doesnt affect trap dmg to enemies
dusky wedge
Underworld custom is one of the easier ones to have, it doesn’t affect how quickly enemies can kill me

It's only unlocked when you get the "main" ending.

to be fair i never played on a console that wasn't 3ds until a month ago
pliant hull
The only games I played as a kid were hack and slash, Mario Party, Melee, and strategy
And I suck at most of those
cunning cradle
lmao
pliant hull
Hades just clicked with me in a way few games have in the past.
I got to Asphodel on my second try, and I beat the final boss on round 25 on my second attempt to Styx, first on the boss.
(Never mind I lost the next 8 attempts)
(Cause, again, I'm bad at video games)
pliant hull
I'm certain there's people that beat it faster than me, though
brazen lagoon
my luck is monumental holy hell
carmine ravine
I think i spent most of my early runs killing myself to get more dialogues tho so idk
pliant hull
my luck is monumental holy hell
That's why the only games I'm "good" at are Mario Party.
brazen lagoon
all skill no luck 😎
pliant hull
😎
I've certainly tossed myself to the fires a few times due to sad times or wanting to progress dialogue.
I'm 60 or so rounds in?
brazen lagoon
im about 400 runs in
pliant hull
I'll get there.
Highest heat I've beat is 4, I think, but that's because I'm not going for high heats yet. You need SOOOOOO many diamonds.

do they? ive never seen them do that
i thought they just stayed wherever they dropped
pliant hull
I saw it happen once, while I was tabbing back and forth reading discord and talking to someone.
I assume it's specifically if you're over lava right when it spawns and want to get out immediately, and don't want to take damage picking it up
deep parrot
apparently you can get behind this side of weapons
not the other side
and it seems you can only get this deep, no further left, and dashing sends you out
it's wierd cuz it's like buggy but at the same time it doesn't matter cuz you aren't softlocked
you can just dash out

might take you a bit over but eh

hl is alright
lc dont touch until youre comfy with dodging
fo dont take until you want to have to relearn speeds and stuff
charred anchor
em2 isnt that hard tbh
charred anchor
yeah
deep parrot
each added em gets exponentially harder

js and cp are ok but not the easiest if you arent good at crowd control
charred anchor
it depends on the weapon/build
opal oar
Arthur sword
opal oar
big blade go wham
deep parrot
if I'm not doing hestia I usually add the 1 hit invulnerability blue heart thing cuz it's just +1 hit without actually giving the bosses a lot of extra health
grand crystal
like cp1/2, js1, td1, and maybe a bit of cf should be a good heat
may e put in em1 and swap it around
oh and em2 should be easy on arthur
since the holy ground makes lava not exist
half zephyr
em3 is hard tho
Is em3 hard for you cuz you have to have the other heats?
deep parrot
which thing is the blue invulnerability heart?
half zephyr
Cuz it’s so fun

and then the other picutre is "evil"
deep parrot
I'm ace, I'm a bambi lesbian
deep parrot
aesthetic attraction is thinking stuff is cute
grand crystal
I just think cute things be cute
hehe asterius is a cutie tho(also i want to be held by those tree trunk arms but thats for another day)
half zephyr
you know that meme that's like "Boy, baby boy"
No cuz I don’t know memes 
deep parrot
what's a bambi lesbian?
wholesome
wants cuddles
not sex
half zephyr
I just wanna be alone
opal oar
Huh, good to know! never heard that term before
half zephyr
deep parrot
basically any ace lesbian is generally a bambi lesbian
opal oar
tho i would argue wanting a sexual relationship isnt necessarily unwholesome
deep parrot
~~tho i would argue wanting a sexual relationship isnt necessarily *unwholesome*...
as an asexual, from my perspective, it is :P
half zephyr
I’d be what you call aroace I guess
deep parrot
I'm actually also aroace
I am just aesthetically attracted
but I desire cuddles
half zephyr
I'm actually also aroace
I am just aesthetically attracted
but I desire cuddles
I love giving virtual hugs
But I hate human contact
Makes my skin crawl
grand crystal
mood
half zephyr
I really want an asterius plushie tho
deep parrot
I love human contact that isn't from my family
narrow hemlock
hi friends, this topic is better suited for #off-topic-discussion 
half zephyr
He’s got that plushie look
deep parrot
sorry
opal oar
as an asexual, from my perspective, it is :P
why tho? just 'cause it's not attraction you experience, doesn't mean it's like, dirty or bad. (which is what unwholesome means, at least by the dictionary definition)
sorry!
narrow hemlock
👍
half zephyr
Then again I also want a Theseus plushie
opal oar
Is theseus actually hard to hit or am i just bad @ it
half zephyr
Is theseus actually hard to hit or am i just bad @ it
Regular Theseus?
deep parrot
I hate shield enemies
half zephyr
He blocks a lot
opal oar
regular
deep parrot
like dude just let me hit your face
grand crystal
Is theseus actually hard to hit or am i just bad @ it
you have to hit his back
opal oar
I was born without the ability to understand block mechanics
opal oar
doing them or fighting them
grand crystal
he turns around an awful lot tho
half zephyr
Theseus is just useless
Great fun, but useless
I love him
He reminds me so much of my cat sometimes
half zephyr
That’s ok
grand crystal
6/32 and my 40 and 45 heat runs
half zephyr
I can love him enough for both of us
grand crystal
ive grown to hate him
half zephyr
deep parrot
theseus is the equivalent of a sewage drainage pipe
half zephyr
No, he’s an angry kitten
deep parrot
his head is soooo stuck far up his ass
half zephyr
Stubborn, thinks he’s the greatest at all times & that everyone should obey him, and he gets angry for no reason
grand crystal
my opinion of theseus swaps from "he sucks" to "aww lil baby"
like when you get asterius' autograph
it just made me want to hug theseus
grand crystal
Stubborn, thinks he’s the greatest at all times & that everyone should obey him,...
like a cat lol
half zephyr
like a cat lol
Exactly! Angry Kitten Theseus!
grand crystal
well you see
grand crystal
i dont like most cats
half zephyr
grand crystal
and theseus is one of those cats
half zephyr
Well, all cats love me
grand crystal
<:ir_angy_shock:798670153965502465>
wut, cats are jerks most of the time
they never let me pet them ;w;
half zephyr
wut, cats are jerks most of the time
That’s part of their charm!
Every cat is a tsundere
Plus when you get a cat to trust & love you, that’s when you know you’ve earned it
grand crystal
a cat has never done that before for me ;w;
half zephyr
Sad
grand crystal
like yea cats are cute
and lil beans
but they never like me :<
like it took several years for my moms cat to even let me pet them
half zephyr
Guess Theseus is like your moms cat then
grand crystal
toxic bear
Beat Hades god of the dead for the first time last night
grand crystal
🥳
toxic bear
Lol It was in pure rougelight fashion. 1 Am, I had no intention or even thought I could get past thesus and just wanted to try another weapon real quick. Slowly but surely I find Im actually doing pretty nice, getting an amazing Bow build.
toxic bear
Beat hades with 2 health lol
grand crystal
BECOME MEMBER OF BOW GANG
toxic bear
Especially with some good deadelas upgrades
So far I Really like Fists, Bow, Spear, Gun.
Meh on Sword
And I just flat out dont like the shield
grand crystal
lol me too ngl
toxic bear
I really like how they are setting up zagerous to a classic greek fate. Destined to fight his way out of tartarus just to talk to his mother for a day and then die
Then repeat
Classic greek myth feeling
As for Each god and their boons.
grand crystal
I really like how they are setting up zagerous to a classic greek fate. Destined...
not even a day lol
more like 5 minutes
toxic bear
So far im at:
S tier - Ares, Artemis, Demeter, Dadelous
A Tier - Dionysous, Zeus, Poseidon, Chaos
Meh Tier - Aphrodite, Hermes
I really like dionysous for his Healing at fountains, and nectar. Zues and Poseidon just give great damage boons. And chaos due to its nature is almost always worth it
I dont like weak and hermes upgrades dont feel as impactful
hardy arrow
@toxic bear the Hermes effects are not as obvious but they're there. In my permanent record, Greatest Reflex is far and away my #1 most cleared boon.
toxic bear
Which one is that again? still attaching the names to their effects
hardy arrow
Extra dashes
toxic bear
Ohh yes
Yeah that can be nice especially with a dash boon
Strongest call so far is easily zueses lighting, I was shocked by how much damage it did to bosses.
I do not like Blade edges
But honestly.. Its just an amazing game.
The gamplay is top notch and addictive as heck. But what really makes it so good is the engaging story and dialouge
Deadcells just didnt have that level of connection with the player
Heck.. I look forward to dying half the time. Thats a damn impressive feat to accomplish
half zephyr
Strongest call so far is easily zueses lighting, I was shocked by how much damag...
You haven’t tried Aphrodite I see
toxic bear
Not in depth, but I remember being annoyed that when I used her call, I couldnt stop myself from attacking them and ruining it
half zephyr
Max gauge Aphrodite is amazing on bosses
toxic bear
oh max guage
toxic bear
Ohhh that does sound helpful actually. I was almost scared in his 2nd form
half zephyr
Free to attack
toxic bear
Thankfully I killed him just before he killed me
Ill add it to my TTL
"To try list"
half zephyr
Ah, I use the smaller ones
You’ll love this 1 duo boon then
ionic trail
BOW GANG
half zephyr
Ok then
toxic bear
What a great addition
Curious. What is considered the best weapon in the game ?
Im sure there is a general consensus
half zephyr
toxic bear
So..I literally just got the heat mechanic. I have a few questions
I am guessing that the way it works is I complete a run with one change in heat to make it full meter, then It needs more changes for the next round and so farth
orth
half zephyr
You can do any heat at any time
toxic bear
Also, does heat impact the story? Lets say that I decide i dont want the heat rewards and do many more runs just on normal to the surfacae
half zephyr
But if you exceed the gauge you don’t get bounties for that heat lvl
But instead for your next at the bottom
toxic bear
Does my story lose anything that it would have gained otherwise from using heat?
grand crystal
Also, does heat impact the story? Lets say that I decide i dont want the heat re...
nope
heat is just for bounties and difficulty
half zephyr
So if you’ve done 2 heat & you jump to 10, you’ll still get reward for heat 3
grand crystal
you can either play with it minimally or be a masochist like me and play on 45
grand crystal
So if you’ve done 2 heat & you jump to 10, you’ll still get reward for heat 3
this too :3
toxic bear
Ok got it thanks
half zephyr
Does my story lose anything that it would have gained otherwise from using heat?
You might gain something in fact
grand crystal
rewards go by each individual heat and going too high wont mess with anything
toxic bear
How good are the rewards?
grand crystal
more blood :/
toxic bear
Its vague and doesnt specify
grand crystal
its bounty refreshes
toxic bear
oh that is good
toxic bear
It does? huh
grand crystal
yea its just bounties but again
meg and hades will give blood
hydra diamond
and champions ambro
toxic bear
Makes sense. ok thanks!
grand crystal
(also i discovered last night that you cant use battie on any of the furies :3)
grand crystal
hehe yea
but it just reinforces why mort is better
since than will kill any of em :3
grand crystal
hehe im only like 2 dialogue instances ahead of you and its very funny
deep parrot
literally I only want tisiphony rn so I can progress this
and tisiphony is my least fav to fight combat wise
grand crystal
i hate alecto
deep parrot
easiest to hardest imo is meg>alecto>tisiphony
they're all easy af
but like
meg is easier
lmao
grand crystal
yeaa meg is a cakewalk
half zephyr
Tisiphone is easiest for me
grand crystal
alecto i just dont like how she is
projectiles coming from normal attacks
rage seems really arbitrary
half zephyr
Since I mostly melee & the room getting smaller just makes it easier
Plus dash dmg is easy when it’s a tiny room
deep parrot
eh idc about room size
grand crystal
tis imo also has some of the most easy animations to read
alecto i feel like is too mixed up for me to easily do the fight without taking damage
deep parrot
is it just me or are literally more than half the bow hammers detrimental
even the ones that sound like they're better
deep parrot
lmao
grand crystal
at least the most influential
deep parrot
some are good
deep parrot
but like
some sound good
but are just really bad
deep parrot
all special ones are really good
not on zag
grand crystal
charged volley is always nice
and concentrated is also nice since you generally shotgun and hit with almost all of em
deep parrot
I literally only use zag special if either, I have DC on, or if I have special deflect
cuz zag bow special is garbage
half zephyr
Just wait
grand crystal
i use special for shotgunning since its very stronk
half zephyr
He’ll say something about zag aspect soon
grand crystal
cuz zag bow special is garbage
its the same as the other ones :/
deep parrot
you have to be literally inside of the enemy for them to all hit tho
grand crystal
just now its a spread and not focused like chiron
grand crystal
you have to be literally inside of the enemy for them to all hit tho
and thats not hard to do
deep parrot
its the same as the other ones :/
chiron is different
half zephyr
Zag special is shotgun
deep parrot
it also staggers them so its relatively safe
if they have no yellow
half zephyr
Great at close range, too much spread at distance
half zephyr
But still bow
grand crystal
zag bow 🤮
deep parrot
also I will point out that with even fists you don't have to be that close
grand crystal
also I will point out that with even fists you don't have to be that close
also its not hard to get in close
deep parrot
literally only bow special requires you to be literally in the same spot as the enemy
grand crystal
people play triple + point blank for rama
you get in them, and kill them
i play triple + point blank for zag bow too
deep parrot
also I prefer being farther away
grand crystal
its not hard to pull off
deep parrot
lmao
don't give me a boon and I'd be not standing still 5head
tfw you steal charon's gold cuz you're like "screw this run this'll suicide quickly" then you win
I think I learned how to dodge charon's sweep attack
just be behind him 5head
grand crystal
hehe hestia is my brain off weapon
i got like heart rend and stuff
very fun
also meg has dialogue if you summon her in the charon fight and i love it
shes just like "youre making me fight charon?"
and im like "ye, need that 2.5k damage and 20% off"
deep parrot
can she instakill a phase?
deep parrot
big sad
surreal condor
Heh, I still haven't won the Hermes bet, but thats just cuz I can't find the fight anymore
grand crystal
i had a crazy rama build that was hitting 2k and it took me 30 seconds to beat him
grand crystal
Heh, I still haven't won the Hermes bet, but thats just cuz I can't find the fig...
ah rip
deep parrot
I have yet to get the hermes bet
grand crystal
its all random so :/
