Wat

half zephyr
#

It’s just visual

#

It adds nothing but a pretty badge

#

It’s just a resource sink for post end game players

signal aspen
#

that would be broken

half zephyr
#

That’s all

#

You gain nothing but the ability to say “I have x badge”

#

Like me, I have Sigma Warden

#

Which is nr 3 or so

#

Cuz sigma

#

Ooh

signal aspen
#

i stopped doing that when i realized that it would cost 300,000 darkness

half zephyr
#

Think of it as a skin for your health bar

How did you guys get the title thing?

3rd phase was easier then 2nd for me

I love so much how I can see my progress and growth in hades so clearly it’s not only satisfying but it’s so different from other games I’ve played where it’s like ur either good or bad

taking world splitter ruined my run :d what a weird ability

#

I died in Chaos and I guess you just blip out of the air

signal aspen
#

bro how did you die in chaos

steady sierra
#

I killed myself on purpose

signal aspen
#

oh

#

with the Exagryph thingie that lets you blow up

#

yeah

#

that and chaos boons are the only way to kill yourself in those rooms

#

wait

and lava

#

and clearly not designed to be fired from the shoulder

narrow hemlock
#

i don't think that's official, usually concept stuff has hades/supergiant labeled on it somewhere

#

it's not something ive seen before of all the concept art work that's been released

warped panther
#

hmm

#

well, here's what I've observed from in game.

#

The rail seems to be pumped in order to reload, which I take to mean that it feeds from a reservoir of several enbloc-type magazines stored inside the gun that probably regenerate on their own and are ejected manually. After firing a grenade, the entire gun is folded open like a break-action shotgun so the breech of the grenade launcher can be loaded.

void vigil
#

it is official! but its not the full image

warped panther
#

you can see casings being ejected too

void vigil
#

zagreus restored

#

its from the february 2019 supergiant blast, which had a whole section about creating the adamant rail

warped panther
#

hmm
I don't see any hinges for it to break open from

grand crystal
#

i just like that theres a gun in hades

#

like

warped panther
#

if it were up to me I'd give it a side-hinge so it can be loaded without obstructing the fore-end of the main gun

grand crystal
#

the technicalities dont matter much, its a gun and thats funny

warped panther
#

true

#

not many games give you the opportunity to unload into the minotaur with a rifle

oh ok! Personally I wasn't planning on doing anything with it besides just posting it like "hey heres the ___ animation from the hades game files!"

Usually standard fair use applies but I'm not aware if there's anything you should watch out for

I'd ask Caitlin, personally, since she's the community manager, but they also have a contact form here on their website. https://www.supergiantgames.com/contact/

Yeah

half zephyr
#

Until you add multiple heats hehe

warped panther
#

speaking of multiple heats: when I first did my first EM4 run, I went gradually from silently pissing myself to loudly pissing myself while screaming audibly

fast laurel
#

just had an insanely fast run but the game ruined it by spanwing the enemies in all the corners of the underworld

unborn remnant
#

Thats unfortunate

tepid plover
#

the point of roguelikes isnt just beating the game, is playing over and over

#

lot of them dont even have an ending

fast laurel
#

yeah but i like getting the fastest time i can get

tepid plover
#

yeah speedrunners are something else

#

i respect them

unborn remnant
#

My pb is around 11 mins

#

in-game time

sullen lagoon
#

Hidden aspect for Stygius is just investing 5 infernal blood then get nyx dialogue right?

warped panther
#

And you need Guan Yu first

sullen lagoon
#

ooo

tepid plover
#

you need guan yu before you can get any hidden

#

no wonder i didnt get the dialogue xD

is there anywhere i can find some basic speedrunning tips for weapons other than eris? i picked up a few things like prioritize chaos/shops/events/minibosses over all normal rooms but not much past that

high island
#

You can also look at the top 10 runs for any aspect and check their victory screens to get some idea for the build meta.

#

And also check what keepsake they started with.

#

Usually, there's 1-2 builds that are meta for an aspect.

Do chaos rooms reroll my next rooms? I have double boon + money, will I still have those two after going for a chaos boon?

no

#

new random rooms will be rerolled when you enter chaos room.

I see

#

and does the dmg increase from enemies having a cast shard also work on bosses?

#

with tisiphone I just don't get her charge/dash, I'm just nuking her down everytime... is there any indication?

brisk trail
#

shes crouching before she does anything

#

same as the others but she has huge range so she can get you from offscreen

vague comet
#

hm I'll pay more attention to it, thanks

brisk trail
#

it deals minimal dmg anyway

#

she has one where she raises her whip too I think?

#

in any way its telegraphed

kind swan
#

Can I get a TL;DR on how the Pact of Punishment works?

gray apex
#

You can add heat before you attempt to escape and whatever you added will take effect in that run, when you go back to the house you can modify things from the heat menu again

kind swan
#

Yeesh, and I thought the 1st run was hard enough already.

gray apex
#

It's only the beginning bouldy

vague comet
#

watching a hear 60 run on youtube and the guy has the choice between an aphrodite room and a shop, he decides to go for the shop but just runs through and doesn't buy anything... is there any reason for this?

gray apex
#

Time

vague comet
#

hm I see

gray apex
vague comet
#

yea same for me, if you manage to do the initial run you will probably beat it much faster the 2nd time and much easier

#

also there is no need to go for the heat levels right away imo... clear the game without punishment with other weapons first

#

switching weapon types also taught me a lot about boss mechanics

high island
#

Just ping him whenever.

#

@vast junco do a barrel roll!

#

Like this.

vague comet
#

oh that's interesting

craggy barn
#

after so many runs with em3 on by default normal heroes feels so ridiculously easy

#

for em3 i have to deal with area hazards and asterius' aoe shockwaves but normal heroes i can just crap on then for a solid 10 seconds and off to styx i go

high island
#

Yup! EM2 is so much faster than EM3 lol.

brisk trail
#

anybody got any advice on how to cut down on my run times? so like get the fastest runs possible?

rapid forum
#

have you tried using FO2?

#

enemies spawn faster on FO2

brisk trail
#

alright i can try that thank you!

brisk trail
#

Except for the last shop before boss you can take the other room if u want cos no combat

#

ok bet thank you very much!

#

also why take tight deadline 1?

#

does it change anything? or is it just that it gives me a timer

rapid forum
#

no survival room on TD1

brisk trail
#

oh i forget

#

thank you

brisk trail
vapid narwhal
#

the survival rooms does not spawn if you have TD so it's faster

#

and with 9 min per map it's a lot of time, free heat

brisk trail
#

but like the in game timer stops durign those rooms

#

so for in game time it wouldnt affect it much right

vapid narwhal
#

no they flat out dont spawn

brisk trail
#

i have to ask cause i kinda cant take TD at the same time cause of my current heat level LOL

vapid narwhal
#

TD1 and even 2 are free heat

brisk trail
#

alright

vapid narwhal
#

and yes the timer stops in certain rooms like the NPC ones

high island
# brisk trail anybody got any advice on how to cut down on my run times? so like get the faste...

yah that vid helped me a ton

#

I did my first speedrun attempt today and got sub 15

#

WHAT

high island
#

I'd also recommend checking the top 10 runs on the speedrun leaderboard for whatever aspect you want to learn. Go to the victory screen and look at their builds, then see what keepsakes they used in Tartarus and in Asphodel.

thats considered a bad word!?

which one

A lot of things are

well thanks to that vid, for a few days, I did the "discombobulate" but with next moves I'll take dusa

high island
#

Then maybe, watch one of the runs for playstyle things.

#

That will give you a good general understanding of the build meta for that aspect.

There’s a lot of synonyms

But I can see which one

does anyone know how many different voicelines in the game

#

maybe you just cant tell the time the underworld

there's gotta be thousands

signal aspen
#

something like that

stark prism
#

dare you to ping a dev

#

and ask

brisk trail
#

no

#

I don't wanna get lynched

#

and I think its in the rules not to do that anyway

stark prism
#

nya pinged aphrodite the absolute madlass

brisk trail
#

or atleast most game servers have a dont ping devs rule

signal aspen

greg pinged the devs in the rules

#

that means we can

brisk trail
#

bet

stark prism
#

just checked the read-me

#

no explicit "do not ping devs"

#

though why would you unless you had a specific bug related Q

brisk trail
#

true but like, I don't rly wanna

stark prism
#

fair

#

if i was wondering your Q i'd ask though, doesnt hurt to ask imo

#

sheesh the tiredness just hit me like a truck boys

#

idk, if I see one specifically online I might ask

#

is sg american?

#

cos if so they're probs sleeping still

signal aspen
#

probably

brisk trail
#

yeah I might ask later then

#

would be interesting to know because there's a TON of voicelines

#

they rly went all out on the dialogue

stark prism
#

my favorite ones are the run-specific ones

#

its almost like the game has been developed for 2 years

such as flair about weapons, the timer with hermes, etc

Hello, I have a question about an object, souvenir, in which section can I?

stark prism
#

this is general discussion, I think you're safe to ask about it here

grave badge
#

ok thank you, it's about the item "broken irons", if I put a single "benefit" on one of the attacks it cancels the buff

#

?*

signal aspen
#

oh

#

is it the shackle

#

from sisyphus

grave badge
#

yep Sysiphe

signal aspen
#

if you put a boon on the attack then no more buff from the shackle

#

on the attack

#

but you will still get the buff on the special and cast

#

but if you put a boon on the special and cast then no more buff

grave badge
#

if I understood correctly, I can put a benefit on the attack, for example, but I do not lose the buff on the "technique" and the "throw"

#

sorry for the writing it's google translate😅

signal aspen
#

if you put a benefit on attack then the attack loses the benefit from the souvenir but the technique and throw still have the benefit from the souvenir

wait do you still have the achievment?

solemn vector
#

yes on steam

signal aspen
#

well you got it before and i guess steam cant take away achievements

signal aspen
solemn vector
#

how does this game even do saving

#

i beat the game with every single weapon

#

how did it not save one time

signal aspen
#

so when you go from the house of hades into your bedroom it will save

#

you gave up

#

that resets everything

solemn vector
#

so when does it actually save the game

vapid narwhal
#

you likely lost your save file

signal aspen
#

when you enter a new chamber during a run that it will save

#

because when you give up it resets to the last time you saved inside of the house of hades

vapid narwhal
#

oh and saw the message

#

yes Give Up reverts your progress

solemn vector
#

but i beat the game with every single weapon

vapid narwhal
#

dont do that, use Quit to properly save

solemn vector
#

how did it not save at any point

vapid narwhal
#

then you have a save file issue

signal aspen
#

yeah

vapid narwhal
solemn vector
#

ill move this time tech support

brisk trail
#

how do i talk to zeus? i need to for the aspect of the gun but i dont understand how i can talk to him

#

do i have to gift him nectar when i find his boon?

#

or

#

sorry if its bit of a dumb question sweats

signal aspen
brisk trail
#

alright fair enough

#

ohhh

#

haha classic

#

non zag aspects

brisk trail
#

i only have them in zag aspects

signal aspen
#

no

brisk trail
#

yeah i thought it could

urban valley
#

i got sword hidden aspect after i put 5 into zag aspect after ||skelly's prank||

brisk trail
#

because for guan yu it specifies that it has to be non zag aspects on the wiki

signal aspen
#

then you must have put 5 more blood into other aspects

urban valley
#

isnt the requirement just 5 in total?

signal aspen
#

or just a glitch

brisk trail
#

but for the aspect of lucifer it doesnt specify that

signal aspen
#

but it is definitely non zag aspects

#

no doubt about it

brisk trail
#

that should be fixed on the wiki then

signal aspen
#

what

brisk trail
#

on the wiki it doesnt specify that it has to be non zag aspects for aspect of lucifer

#

it just says 5 or more invested into rail aspects

#

but for guan yu it says

#

into 5 separate non-Zagreus aspects

#

so it should probably be added to each of those wiki pages that it has to be non zag aspects

#

id assume its the same for the others as well

urban valley
#

uh yea the wiki says you can put it into any aspect for arthur

signal aspen
brisk trail
#

yeah i might edit that

#

cause its a bit misleading if one page specifies it

signal aspen
#

you should

brisk trail
#

and then another one doesnt

signal aspen
#

just edit them all so they say "non-zag aspects"

urban valley
#

are you sure tho? i didnt put any more titan blood into the sword but got it from maxing zag aspect

brisk trail
#

alright imma take your word for it and edit all weapon wiki pages for this

#

it can always be reverted if it turns out it isnt the case

half zephyr
#

It’s any aspect

signal aspen
#

bruh

half zephyr
#

And those are correct

signal aspen
#

god dang it

brisk trail
#

ok nvm imma just not edit it jerry

signal aspen
#

those people lied to me

urban valley
#

lol

brisk trail
#

alright ive reverted the change i made

signal aspen
#

good

#

i feel so dumb rn

brisk trail
#

hey no worries!

#

happens to everyone!

brisk trail
#

is the loyalty card permanent?

signal aspen
#

no

#

only for that run

#

so when you beat charon you get 20% off every thing he sells (this does not include well of charon) and 300 obols

brisk trail
#

OOP ok

#

just lost 2 death defiances to that fight

#

worth it for the achievement though

signal aspen
#

there's an achievement for that?

#

dont remember getting an achievement

vapid narwhal
#

there is

#

and a prophecy for ||beating him twice in a row||

signal aspen
#

yeah i know there is a prophecy but i somehow dont remember getting an achievement

Eris Rail goated for speedruns

brisk trail
#

do i need to have the gun equipped while talking to zeus to get the hidden aspect for the gun?

#

or can i have any weapon

#

the wiki said any waepon, the tutorial video i watched said the gun

half zephyr
#

But don’t think you need to have gun equipped

brisk trail
#

alriught bet

#

idk cause i got like 20 zeus boons

#

since maxing out zagreus aspect

#

and i could have sworn zagreus aspect takes 5 titan blood

modern garnet
#

I dont think zag aspect counts for hidden aspect?

brisk trail
#

idk man im majorly confused

#

cause i had this exact discussion like 4 hours ago LMAO and everyone thought something different

unborn remnant
#

i got it with eris rail

modern garnet
#

100 people have 100 different ideas about how it works

brisk trail
#

so i reverted it again

modern garnet
#

It does say that

#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

brisk trail
#

on the wiki it specifies for guan yu that zag does in fact NOT work

#

but for all the other weapons

#

it just says "blade aspects" or "bow aspects"

half zephyr
#

Guan Yu works differently

#

I must’ve had perfect setups for the HAs cuz I just got them one after the other after GY cathide

modern garnet
#

You can get a lot of weird theories when the conversation pool is so big

half zephyr
#

The pins in story channel are confirmed to be true tho according to mod

#

But in the end the dialogue aspect is still rng

unborn remnant
#

yeah

warped panther
#

I was using the shield when Asterius told me about Ekidnu

unborn remnant
#

you mean gilgamesh?

#

idk what that is

#

am i a dumbass

gray apex
#

Yea

#

Claws of Enkidu are the Gilgamesh aspect

gray apex
half zephyr
#

if you've ever watched or read anything related to Fate

you know about gilgamesh & enkidu perrielleheh

#

and when I see that stupid fist aspect - knowing that arthur is another - I keep feeling like I'm walking into a grail joke

unborn remnant

oh

ok so im not stupid

nope

Alex Moukala, a music producer and Soken stan, took a gander at Hades' In The Blood. The song is a bit of a spoiler for new players, tho that song is featured on the Supergiant YT channel. He usually likes to look at the music theory behind the music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbzATTPcfQ0

Let's listen and dissect the music of HADES by Supergiant games!
For this video, we'll go over "In The Blood", made by Darren Korb, Austin Wintory and Ashley Barrett, plus a bunch other songs, analyzed from the perspective of a Music Producer & Composer.

It’s been 12 days and I have 100 hours in Hades, holy

I have...52 hours in Hades and I got it in October 😅

i've been playing for a good 3 months and i only have 220 hours in

Got it January and have 140 hrs in

u guys counting how many hours you have played?

#

i had the game since december 2020

#

lemme check my playtime

#

how to see playtime?

grand crystal

for switch you have to go to your profile to see, steam should have it just right under the play button, and idk about epic

heavy hound

Yeah my switch tells me

dapper rivet
#

i'm trying to create a macro that combines dashing and attacking to get a one-button dash attack. i can only get the dash to work, anyone have advice?

nevermind, for anyone wondering i changed attack to a key instead of mouse button and now it works

I am insanely pumped!! Sub 14 minute run!

congrats :D

hallow peak
#

So after my save file getting deleted twice after hours of progress

#

I rebuilt it back to where I was using a mod because I wasn’t about to waste 3 hours a third time

#

And with god mode off I am holding my own pretty well in a boonless run

#

Could it be I am finally less crap for once lol

winter zinc
#

nice!

#

are u making backups now

hallow peak
#

Nope but I should thanks for reminding me

#

It seemed to be a steam problem

#

Because after I went to validate files to check i got a steam notification pop up saying couldn’t access something so it needed to install something. I clicked yeah do that thing because it was a steam notification window so it wasn’t some virus and it seemed to be saving my progress fine now

#

So it seemed to be just a steam cloud error

runic estuary
#

Holy hell that would be the worst to lose whole runs of progress

hallow peak
#

Boonless runs are fun

#

Especially when you get a perfect affluence and oceans bounty for the first time and get 6,000 flipping gold by the end of the run

#

With hoarding slash

#

Most fun and ridiculous run I ever had

#

Rngesus blessed me today

warped panther
peak zealot
#

I finally got to do a first floor chiron fight. Beat him with nothing other than an ares special boon on an aspect of poseidon. Good chance my run dies do to having too little time to beat the furies now

#

beat without losing any DD either

modern garnet
#

wow, scary

peak zealot
#

well, panicked over nothing, got through the furies with about thirty seconds to spare

bleak crag
#

just wondering, is my game bugged? like everytime i want to get a hidden aspect weapons, the conversation didn't get triggers?

#

like i need around 100 hours to get my first hidden aspect from achiles

#

after that, i get the bow and the sword

#

but then, whenever i talked with zeus, chaos, or asterius, the conversation didn't triggers

half zephyr
#

Dialogue is rng

bleak crag
#

like how am i supposed to do -_-

half zephyr
#

You keep trying

bleak crag
#

gosh i hate rng bases achievements 😦

half zephyr
#

Maybe the dialogue is lower priority compared to some other stuff you got going on

bleak crag
#

it's been 23 hours since then, didn't get a single conversation

#

it's funny when i see someone with 73 hours, unlocked all the achievements

#

@_@

half zephyr
#

I sometimes wonder if the reason people don’t seem to get the HA when they want is cuz they’re aiming to get them 😗

I jus did runs as I normally did & suddenly got the HA

#

It might seem impossible when you focus on it or smth? nyaShrug

#

Like the old adage - a watched kettle never boils

bleak crag
#

i just trying to focus on getting the max all keepsakes rn

half zephyr
#

Good plan

bleak crag
#

then i'll try to get the HA, the problem is.... it didn't showed up...

#

just that 2 achievements @_@

half zephyr
#

Can’t really help beyond that as the dialogue is rng

bleak crag
#

hmm shame...

#

thanks for the help though shadeohboy

half zephyr
#

I’ll link a video for you

#

it's fascinating

bleak crag
#

yeah i watched it haha

#

ngl these achievements are really grindy to do -_-

#

already lost my motivation

half zephyr
#

then don't do them

carmine ravine
#

Which achievement

#

I dont think lot of them were grindy

half zephyr
#

I have my own goal of getting 25k darkness & the way I make it feel not grindy is that I don't focus on it alone

#

and I know that after that the goal will be to get around 300k darkness

brisk trail
#

hades is a grindy game

bleak crag
#

wait, i can't post pictures o_o

half zephyr
#

wow, it's almost like it's a roguelite hehe

half zephyr
brisk trail
#

pretty much

#

although its a lot more grindy compared to some other ones

bleak crag
#

these 2 are grindy -_-

brisk trail
#

I mean just do more runs should be ez

half zephyr
#

maybe I just have that kind of personality

my greatest pleasure from minecraft was never building stuff - it was just collecting stuff from the world around me

brisk trail
#

I dont have the keepsake one either

bleak crag
#

already doing it rn -_-

carmine ravine
#

That's not grindy tho

half zephyr
bleak crag
#

the keepsakes is just 3 more

#

the problem is with the rng of the HA D:

brisk trail
#

the keepsake one is def grindy

#

but no one forces you to do it

bleak crag
#

eh i like 100% games :3

half zephyr
#

I've got 2 keepsakes left & I don't even have achievements

brisk trail
#

fair enough

carmine ravine
#

Hades is far less grindy than other roguelites thothanthink

brisk trail
#

idk what rouge likes you are thinking of but

carmine ravine
half zephyr
#

I just don't find myself wanting to use the keepsakes

brisk trail
#

hades is a game that wants you to grind meta resources before you can even play it normally

#

while other rougs give you all the tools you win from the start

half zephyr
#

you can play mirrorless tho

brisk trail
#

you can

half zephyr
#

you can win mirrorless

bleak crag
#

my goal is to 100% game then uninstall it haha

#

most of my games like that

brisk trail
#

its not only the mirror its also titan blood, gems ect

half zephyr
#

there's even dialogue from hades for winning on your first ever run

brisk trail
#

I know I did fresh file runs

half zephyr
#

but you can play it normally before getting the items too

bleak crag
brisk trail
#

also I thought there was no dialouge for that

carmine ravine
#

You do know the difference between roguelites and roguelikes right@brisk trail

brisk trail
#

not rly

carmine ravine
brisk trail
#

ok bye

half zephyr
#

wow

brisk trail
#

I mean game genres are just buzzwords at some point ppl throw around

half zephyr
#

but they are actually different

carmine ravine
#

Yeah what even is rpg

brisk trail
#

so whats the difference

carmine ravine
brisk trail
#

tell me oh wisdom

#

man

half zephyr
#

basic one is permanent or semi-permanent upgrades

bleak crag
#

this is like the situation of dead cells, where people didn't know metroidvania and roguelike shadedisgruntled

half zephyr
#

roguelikes don't tend to have them

#

you can unlock characters maybe, but nothing that'll permanently upgrade anything

rapid agate
#

permanent upgrades is rogue-lite

sand nest
#

Lol before your edit I was confused

rapid agate
#

is isaac a rogue-lite tho then

brisk trail
#

I see thats fair

half zephyr
brisk trail
#

you unlock items and progress in isaac so I'd say yes?

#

okay

rapid agate
#

yeah but you can unlock permanent upgrades

half zephyr
#

you unlock other stuff that shows up in the dungeons, yes

rapid agate
#

like holy mantle on the lost

half zephyr
#

but those are temporary

brisk trail
#

because you cant go all the way through on your first run

half zephyr
#

only for the run

brisk trail
#

in isaac

rapid agate
#

what about the D6 or the holy mantle

brisk trail
#

how to see playtime?

half zephyr
#

you can get to 1st ending I believe

#

but isaac has multiple endings

rapid agate
#

yes

#

delirium haha

sand nest
#

Ok now I know I suck at roguelikes

brisk trail
#

you can only get to mom but you need to unlock the dungeon actually opening up by playing more

rapid agate
#

dogma haha

sand nest
#

EtG kicks my ass

rapid agate
#

we all just suck less at a different rate

brisk trail
#

the charm of these games is that they are hard and you gotta learn how to beat them

#

so its normal to be bad

rapid agate
#

yeah

sand nest
#

Hades works for me cause the storyline is awesome

#

I tend to be story driven

half zephyr
#

with hades you get mirror upgrades & weapon unlocks & weapon upgrades

sand nest
#

My gaming skills aren't great

rapid agate
#

i tend to be fun driven

half zephyr
#

roguelite

rapid agate
#

and hades works

sand nest
#

Took me 40+ runs to beat hades

brisk trail
#

hades also gets really easy once you get more meta resources

rapid agate
brisk trail
#

plus you have godmode

half zephyr
#

and that's why it's a roguelite

bleak crag
half zephyr
#

not a roguelike

sand nest
#

Yes I'm on 100+ hours and still enjoying it

brisk trail
#

I understood it thanks!

rapid agate
#

and 50 hp no dd's

#

and no healing

bleak crag
#

i beat 32 heat and i still think that was hard -_-

brisk trail
#

it is

bleak crag
#

let alone 63

half zephyr
brisk trail
#

hey

#

i have a question

gray apex
#

Hey

brisk trail
#

is there any skins for weapons

rapid agate
half zephyr
#

uhm, not really

rapid agate
bleak crag
half zephyr
#

you have the aspects?

brisk trail
#

i played so long and its kinda boring

bleak crag
#

aspects counts

half zephyr
#

but they change how the weapon works

gray apex
#

Aspects change the appearance

brisk trail
#

i have everything

rapid agate
#

every what

half zephyr
#

so it's not really a skin

brisk trail
#

maybe you can find some funny mods

#

but nothin ingame

gray apex
#

yea

half zephyr
bleak crag
#

so it's still counts

#

imo

half zephyr
rapid agate
#

technically skins

#

also

brisk trail
#

every aspects every upgrade for sources i

half zephyr
#

and the person said they have everything

rapid agate
half zephyr
#

they want actual skins

brisk trail
#

every aspects

bleak crag
#

oh i get it

brisk trail
#

i want skin u know

#

black spear

rapid agate
#

but aspect of arthur looks so gooood

bleak crag
#

:3

rapid agate
#

yes

#

chunky hits

bleak crag
#

using that to finish the run faster

half zephyr
#

I even said early on that you have the aspects, but noooo you just pay attention to how I said that they change how the weapons work TT

rapid agate
#

yeah but

half zephyr
#

check out the modding server

#

they might have something for you

rapid agate
#

gameplay changes+skins>skins

half zephyr
#

but not classic skins

#

a classic skin only changes the look

brisk trail
#

this chat is really being on a semantics train huh

bleak crag
#

i still stand with my points that aspect is counted as a skin

#

:3

half zephyr
#

and I'm not saying it isn't

#

I'm saying it also changes how the weapon works

#

I know it's a skin too

but it wasn't the kind of skin the guy was after

bleak crag
#

yes i know what you meant shadow haha

#

he wants a skin like those in csgo, dota, or ghostrunner where it doesn't affect gameplay

half zephyr
#

when someone already has all aspects & asks for skins, saying the aspects are skins won't help

brisk trail
#

Nah, Infernal Arms Aspects aren't skins, they're variants.

carmine ravine
#

Skins is cosmetics

half zephyr
#

yes, classic skin is cosmetic

brisk trail
#

A weapon skin is a cosmetic change.

half zephyr
#

in this game we don't have classic skins

brisk trail
#

Don't even have to say "classic," in modern gaming "skin" is cosmetic.

half zephyr
#

the closest is the aspect changes

bleak crag
#

true2

half zephyr
carmine ravine
#

Its like saying a pistol and a laser pistol which uses a different ammo is a skin

half zephyr
#

that's why I said it changes the weapon too TT

cuz it's not really a skin, but in this game it's the closest we get to it

bleak crag
#

okay then.. imma just go do more runs, hopefully the HA conversation is occurs

#

thanks for the help earlier shadow

#

ok, so i noticed that i need to spend blood on some weapons like the fist, the bow, and the gun

#

that's why i didn't get them

#

why cant i take nyx 's mirror achievement?_

brisk trail

use a key to reset your mirror and level up each tier once
