Yeah
I got Patroclus' today, I have only 1 left now
Ohhh
cuz 5 hits is a lot of dmg
Also, is levelling up all sakes to 3 a good idea?
I mostly use pom blossom
Oh pom blossom is the one you are missing
then you can do the others
...
Don’t wait trying to get it

Im slow ok
And should be saving up Gemstones or Keys, I need 30 keys for my next Mirror Abilities unlock but I keep using them on the 10 Gemstone for a Key trade and then the 5 keys for Nectar
Ohh
I didn’t think about it
Gotcha
Also thats not that bad of a spoiler
Guan Yu is a "git gud" aspect, simply put. But it can be very powerful, and it's one of the best aspects for no-hitting a run.
???
why do you need gems
gems be cosmetic
To pimp his crib yo
max out keys first
About to do my next run with it, it's my next Ambrosia quest, got the Arthur aspect
I just prefer hades aspect on the spear
Gotcha, I sort of understood that after 15-20 runs since I was unable to do anything w those but the house decos thtas why after that I started trading in those always
Can do much more damage
That was the first weapon I ever beat Hades with
And it was the most unexpected
Same
Like I had hardly used it 3 times before
But that run went so good and I managed beating em
ok
I am in love w the Arthur aspect now 😭
onwards with my PALADIN RUN!
BWAHHAHAA
HUZZAH
This might help a bit for Guan Yu. #h1-builds-and-combat message
Thank you for your help everybody :D
I think the special for gaun yu is cool but its underpowered
Also alsoz one mor question
It doesn’t ricochet if you get that hammer
The only heart max out I've done is with Charon, and he took Ambrosia before the bond
Is it like that with all the characters?
That it will only happen with like 2 enemies
It's far from underpowered.
The Ambrosia gift instead of regular Nectar for the last heart?
For the bond**
Yeah thats how it works most of the time
Okay👍 I'll be sure to stack up on some Ambrosia then
Once you get past the lock most characters want ambrosia
140+?
Im on around 30 now
Yooooo
Uhhh
Epic
I don't really play that much
Veterans
I mean I did get it around 1.5 months ago
150 to 200
I got it new years eve
But I am definitely gonna play upto 150 hours 100%
Because i am an addict
Gonna be the same w me at this rate 😔
I’m 205 hours in
Hi all. I noticed there wasn't a tiny vermin emoji and wanted to share one i created for my server, if it helps
And am slowing down
Do you remember/know what the next two key ability unlocks after the Olympian Favour are?
why no better boons
Yeah Chaos boons need a buff :( T_T
Yep
YES
What is the best drapes?
THAN YOU CHAOS
Also may I add you fellas as friends?
I have cobalt laurels and bonr drapes
dash -24% range, but then I get +61%spdmg
Because I thought the other drapes looked bad
I got this but +37% attack instead of the increment in sp d
?
Plus serrated point for max no dash
mine was epic
Isn't that a Sword Daedalus upgrade? Serrated point?
Spear
Oh
Also I thought the gun was trash at first
I had meg & now THAN APPEARS
But after today's use
Sure for me idk bout the others
Same.
I sent you and Shadow a request Oil God 
Ikrrr
Question question, should I focus on unlocking multiple aspects on all weapons first, or level up one aspect
YOOOO GRATZ
wooo
GODDAMN, FARMING FROM THE MORNING IS FINALLY PAYED OFF
Did you beat Elysium?
SCREW YOU HADES RNG
id say get all of them first then decide
some however take more to be good than others
YEAH
Omg ok he's 137 hours in
THANKS SHADOW AND BLITZ!!!
Focus on the one you like and farm with it

hey, does anyone know why thanatos' butterfly doesn't increase damage clearing the encounters in the styx? it only does it in the least one of each gallery while with mom's blossom or with demeter's crop every encounter counts. is it a thought thing or an error?
I THROW DOWN THE SHACKLES THAT HOLD ME IN PLACE SCREW YOU RNG
like hera is good right off the bat but something like chiron takes a bit more love to really shine
Gotcha
balance reasons
only final encounter maybe?
otherwise you could get soo much attack and evade from styx
I think thay would make it too OP
Isn't that the +1.1% dodge chance increment one?
yeah i was just doing some darkness farming runs and i felt 300 iq thinking i could use the butterfly at the end
butterfly is the 2% attack at max
dammit
plume is the 1.2% evade and move at max
Ah gotcha
Right👍
You should try doing a boonless run with arthurs sword @rapid bear
that's hermes's feather
And use the shackle
It is kinda confusing to have two different meaning for “one encounter” for than’s keepsake vs everything else
Im so bad at remembering the names of the keepsakes still😭
And get hoarding slash
3,000 obals means
Ohhh and use that keepsake which increases attack, cast and special on non-boon
i just think of it as plume and butterfly work everywhere but styx :/
I got Deathless stand, Last stand & Holy Shield - and I haven't lost a single DD
Yess sorry
yeah cuz both the descriptions said each encounter so i was confused
Yessir
Yeah, that’s the confusing part
HAHAH
Last stand makes you impervious + 1 rep of DD right?
@high island I have unshakable mettle now 
key word being replenish
I wonder if there’s a better way to convey how it works in Styx
It hurts the most when you reach Patroclus and you see that Kiss of Styx premium but you haven't lost a single DD....
I haven't lost something to replenish
That's just pain on another level
Second time I did a boonless run I had hoarding slash and with smart purchases and good choices I was sitting on 4,000 obals and almost 400 hp

Yesss bwahahhaha
I know it’s probably fine for most people but my designer mindset thinks it’s horrendous lmao
unshakable mettle yay
and deathless stand & last stand
ahh well a way you can see it maybe is that its per encounter room reward for butterfly and plume compared to rare crop and mom pom which is just any combat
4000, 4 THOUSAND Obals?
Yep
The max Oval I've had in 1 run was like 500 so far T_T
Because no boons
Ohhhh
I bought poms
obol*
both technically the same thing but its a way to look at the difference in slight mechanics
Which just gave me more money
Alright I've to head out now, twas hella fun discussing here, cyall around!!
Also learned that hermes swift strike doesn’t influence shackle
So slow arthur got faster
yea only core boons do
i just finished a run with chiron with aphrodite's heroic special, lv.12 and relentless and concentratred volley, it did like 3500 each special oh my god
Thank you Plum, Shadow, Oil and everyone else that helped :D have a good day/night where you are

Then I did a truly boonless run and still did good not picking up any boons
That’s pretty nice. Would’ve work well enough. So, in essence, we just need a few wording changes on plume and butterfly
i was about to bust with a like 15 sec hades
AAaAhhh i was mostly just here
but see ya :3
Oh wait he can’t yet no fated ability
Wait till you get 30 keys and a good amount of darkness
nice

which aspect?
cursed slash with arthur
probalby the worst hammer for arthur
ye, but it works for me & it's fun
cool
it's just that arthur is perfect for tank
and it's just fun to add cursed slash on a holy blade
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/469943461370658838/829739592491073626/unknown.png what happens when i take massive spion with the aspect of guan yu
will the vortex thingies increase in size?
you get a bigger spin
and do more damage?
hmmm
yeah
what would be better extending jab or massive spin
massive spin probably cause imma need those heals
imo perfect hammers on guan yu is charged skewer + quick spin
especially since guan yu attack isnt that good
god idk which keepsake to take for the last fight
skelly or cerberus, i have em both maxed
acorn
the answer is usually acorn
skelly is good
i only have acorn on level 1
acorn is very good

did i stutter
lmao

if you have all DDs, cerebrus isn't that bad
bruh that is a reason acorn is a good choice for you
yeah lol
yeah but 3 hits and its over...
The meaning of acorn in ancient Greek
i get hit like 20 times in that fight
but thats more than what skelly gives you
Look it ip
skelly gives you a 100hp dd
*17 times in that fight
dad deals about 30-40 per hit
oh no youre kidding me
hmmm
once you level acorn it becomes better
myrmidon bracelet not that bad
wait im confused
dad is kinda slow, but it can be confusing the first times
isnt it better with cerberus though since i have a chance to heal
chance to heal?
yeah aspect of guan yu
oh
yea no take acorn
i guess
yeah def
25 health is not that much
OH COME ON
it is, especially in elysium
give me a date event than!!
lol
what
🤨
I got both meg & than during my run
but instead of date dialogue, I get than talking about nyx
you'll get it
and just basic dialogue from meg TT
dw
i dont even know what im using rn
epic link bro
that looks great man
im jealous
the azure is better
you have to copy image link
epic embed fail
oh sheise
i prefer azure drapes
how do I wait
I just like the look of bones everywhere
?????????????????????
I can't figure out how to copy media links on computer
you've waited
so let me switch to mobile here
might just lose this run cause of time
nice
bones pretty
I've been to the bone church in prague 
It was beautiful inside
amazing what the artist could do with bones
where is zagreus
thats also how you look at the house like that
maybe he really is batman
what bats
in the cage
This makes me want to get the Nyx painting
you gotta buy the bats from the contractor
I now see him
yeah
hello
hello
im gonna wait like a couple seconds before I post my next pic of the azure drapes
just in case
alright that was a lot easier than i thought
got hades, lost 1 DD only, at the very end just before killing him with my Aid
also thank you mods
elysium was harder than hades
I agree
its been like 10 hours you can post them now
gaaaah why is ||unseen ones|| so epic
elysium is often harder than hades tbf
at least it feels like it
go with bones
which one?
i like the bones more
🦴
I was leaning towards bones
i like azure ;w;
also nice pfp plum
calcium is good for you
M I L K

i need to watch magus bride actually, a friend wanted me to get into it and elias is a mood sometimes
calcium to overthrow the human overlords
its a good show I liked it
ye, but I've seen all the big parts in yt highlights 
fair
one of my oc's is named elias and then i remember magus bride exists ;w;
I KNOW NOT OF WHICH YOU SPEAK
idk tbh in game i like it on a personal level i dont :/
like design wise its epic, but im not a fan of it personally
ah, you can't answer cuz it's not your genre is it
mhm :3
one day, you shall unlock
May I have a hint
idk
Because 200 hours
em4
Oh is it a song
yeah
em4 is just better music
Oh i got those all unlocked hang on
you only got this one if you've done em4
Well most
it's just
What does em stand for
i dont listen to the music in hades so i just guessed what you meant by that
no
pact of punishment
extreme music
it reminds me of a combination of dragonforce & babymetal
it slaps
Why doesn’t orpheus sing along though with the songs that have lyrics
idk that made me sad ;w;
like
cuz it's instrumental
Sort of upsetting to not hear that great sound again
i wanted to have him sing lament on command so i got the song
From in the blood
But im broke
but it was just a remix instrumental ;w;
Well no
it's on yt
But im saving
for free
spotify is free
Fair
Wait
and i mean he sings it with eury sometimes in asphodel
if you have apple music, it's there too
Isn’t the soundtrack buyable though? Or am I thinking of something else
yes
Buyable on steam
and that stops the artists on spotify how
it's an option to buy it
IM GOING TO SHANK MYSELF
ok
to support the artists & sgg
Tiny mobile keyboard
i got it for free since im EA boy from epic 😎
SCHEISE
you swear
it's not allowed
tax evasion 😎
Where did you learn german shadow
just cuz it's in another language
Or how do you know what that means
I'm from Norway, my mother was married to a german guy for 9 years, my half brother is half german, I took german in school for 1 year before I quit it & I've been to germany more times then I can remember
lol imagine
i knew it lmao
and I've watched Werner
Cool
I grew up on werner
ik bits a pieces of german since my brother took the class when he was in high school
Europe is a soup
and that's not for kids
yeah
What’s Werner
(kinda getting off topic 👉 👈 )
I knows, sorry
Tv show? What do you mean
Just realized that the head chef is skinny 
I want to trust him, but...
he’s got a high metabolism leave him alone
u ever buy a boon in styx and it gives you not one, not two, but three different duo boon options
He stands and cooks all day (or night), so maybe you're up to something
yeah
then again the game literally does give u the ability to tweak ur odds of getting duos so maybe i just need more darkness lmao
it doesnt
its a scam
there is no difference
really?
i feel no difference
but can u prove that like. mathmetically
did someone like datamine & find that out
there is one
but there's also this thing called bad rng
well that's stupid that's how how rng works
Do Chaos +rarity boons also apply to duos?
guys if i have the correct prerequisite boons for a specific duo boon do i have to like pickup another boon from one of those 2 gods for a chance to get the duo?
so like i have phalanx shot and thunder flourish, so to get lightning phalanx i need to get either an athena or a zeus boon and hope i get lucky
mhm
nah you actually need artemis because she is in control of most of the duos
you actually cant get duos from trials
rip
whats the hermes cup
im pretty sure it is a speed run competition
oh im stupid i thought i was misssing a dire snakestone thing, i was missing the king vermin
ah ok makes sense
are there different like levels or is it just 1 tournament with the fastest people
idk
Damn didn't get as lucky with fist boons and lost the run
on my Hell Mode run
on my previous run, I used Talos + Artemis special + explosive catch hammer thingy for like 600-800 damage per special
talos? 600 damage?
not sure if so much damage came from just those three, or also Poseidon's knockback boon
90% of poseidon boons are knockback boons
but the Special was Artemis
was critting and dealing 600+ damage from like the first area or so
that doesnt tell me how you got that much damage every special
do you mean demeter?
the one that makes your special hit multiple times?
I think I had Breaking Wave
Slamming foes into walls or corners creates a watery blast in the area.
could that have been triggered by Talos special + explosive?
sometimes it looked weird
no
my combo would finish with 200+ damage (a crit) and then I would Poseidon Dash and got the 600 damage thing
no clue how it worked
i dont think the explosion knocks enemies away
600 damage?
knockback does stupid damage :/
yeah constant 600-800 damage crits by just using Artemis special
if you slam them into a wall
but wall slams cant crit unless you have pressure points
it cant :/
well I was dealing that much damage for the second half of the run
gonna keep running fists and try to achieve the same effect again
it does actually
talos special pulls it in and poseidon on the special knocks it away
unless it got patched out or something
yeah but I had ARTEMIS
"artemis special"
no Pressure Points I don't think
unless the game calls the pull a knockback
even if I had PP, it wouldn't crit ALL THE FREAKING TIME
im just surprised you can hit a crit all the time
me too
no mention of Knockback here
can you Knockback without Poseidon?
shield attack
iirc
shield does a bit
the sword special
yea
^^that too
there's a hammer upgrade that stops it from knocking back
both have a hammer that makes the knockback moves not knockback and hit twice instead
if you use the sword special and get Sea Storm Duo skill, can you apply electric effects like Jolted without either Zeus or Poseidon on special?
right I remember now
I hate using non-heavy shields
sea storm acts like lightning
so basically its just better zeus
doesn't sea storm cause Poseidon moves to inflict Jolted?
so when are the rats getting removed lmao
yeah
when you kill them all
BRUH LMFAOO
the game stats
Not directly.
it gives electric effects to knockback moves
Sea Storm causes Poseidon knockback to drop a lightning bolt.
sword special / shield attack are knockback moves
it causes knockback moves to make a lightning strike
It will share most/all T2 effects that Zeus has.
including the two weapons above?
can't remove the rats! what are you gonna bribe cerb with then? hmmm
Last I checked it's specifically Poseidon knockback.
good point
i hate the poison tho
then don't stand in it
shield and sword thrust and special are affected by sea storm
besides bows, is anything good for hangover builds?
hidden rail
and also chaos shield
infinite ammo
can you hit the same enemy multiple times with the chaos shield?
yeah
for hangover builds you should always try to get weak, and doom
and it just resulted in laughable damage every time I tried it
beyblade is the best shield
mhm
are any of the boons more likely to appear during a run?
I get Zeus and Ares all the time, but barely ever get Aphrodite or Demeter
I also always get Zeus on the same runs I get Poseidon, and vice versa, so I wonder if they're tied together somehow
i think there is a pre-set 4 that you will get most in each run iirc
i think that u can manipulate that with the keepsakes tho too but not sure
Hades
Its not pre set
Its just that after you get 4 gods in your pool, you won't see any more other than those 4
that was bad phrasing, i mean like it draws a random 4 gods at the beginning? thats how i assumed it was done
no
not pre-set, but the first 4 boons you pick up from different gods (not including chaos or hermes)
The game rolls almost everything, from boons to sack rng, on the spot
does this mean you can theoretically pick and choose ur own pool
Yeah
so if you don't go for a god at the start, you essentially reject that god
You can just avoid gods you dont want
sometimes your hands be tied tho
Take health instead of the god that is offered, e.g
i guess that explains why ive had scenarios where i rolled so many gods in rerolls in tartarus
Or a pom
thats not true
But yeah, gold laurels cant role into blue laurels
I've been told they only roll into the specifics, but I guess they didn't explain well enough
havent tried that yet
I haven't touched authority since I used it for the prophecy
Gold laurels are poms, gold, boons, hammers and health
sounds like a good rng manip tactic in tartarus tho if you get lucky
Things you use for the current run only
it's not worth giving up persuasion
Blue laurels are everything else, darkness, nectar, keys, gems
for the steam ||clear elysium with em|| achievement do i need to put on ||em3||?
yes pretty sure
i dont know anything about steam achievements, but id assume so
Didnt you already clear em2
stella
yeah
yeah, then just take em3
you might get taken down first go at em3
dont take any Forced overtime with em3 btw, asterius scary
bring earplugs for theseus
can just ignore him
Its still harder than the normal fight by a large margin
his laugh is the best part of em3
I find the normal fight harder now after em3
but yeah, like every boss fight, it gets easier the more you play
what
rather commit toaster bath than listen to theseus talk which is how you know he was written perfectly
Theseus blocks like 30% of the arena in em3
cuz I forgot he attacked me during phase 1
meant to be annoying, does it well
and he's super easy to evade
and you can just tail theseus
he's super easy to ignore
asterius telegraphs all his moves
idk normal fight is just so much more easier
They attack slower, they have less moves
The arena is bigger
with normal fight I've forgotten how it is so it's much harder for me
I'm still so annoyed I lost a dd to theseus of all beings
no, em3 is better
i know people say shield is good but i can not for the life of me enjoy playing shield for some reason
have you tried zeus shield?
i did
zeus shield w either zeus or artemis special is great
idk ive been riding the rail train for so long
and add support fire
beowulf was decent for me though
If you're on keyboard/mouse, i would highly recommend using attack at cursor for shield
still dont even have secret unlocked on that one, im on at least 5-7 heat with most other weapons
i play controller
ah
It also helps seeing other people play
Dont be too passive with shield
Blocking is good, but dont overdo it
was thinking about getting one of those keypad/joysticks tho., i think itd be crazy optimized to do joystick movement with mouse aim
I dash-strike all the time & forget I can block 
bull rush is not part of my move set
I usually dont block in shield unless its an armoured enemy or boss fight tbh
Or if i have charged shot, in which case its just bull rush all day every day
i played so much BOI/ROR2 plus adc in league so i just end up having that mid range but aggressive playstyle and shield makes me change pace
things to get on zeus shield - empowering flight, support fire & a sweet special
as long as i have athena dash anything is possible tbh
wait so does extreme measure on the hades fight just add the cerberus thing and the 3rd revive where you have like limited vcision?
He also becomes faster and has new moves
im having some problem where my game isnt saving...
im 60 hours into the game
I noticed because of the same dialogue and events in that run
whats happening?
idk
every time I log off its just like I never played until a certain save I did a few days ago
and im using the exact same method ive always done logging off
Make sure when you logg of, you can click the quit button from the pause screen
If you can't that means the game hasn't saved
ik its what ive always done
and it always says saved like 1-2 minutes ago
make sure you see the save button go off before you exit
might want to ask at #h1-tech-support if you can't find a fix
Ummm how do I manipulate the first hammer upgrade again?
I keep dying to traps until I get the hammer I want
restart with the right Goddess' boon once I get the hammer I want and...
I get a different hammer?
why was I even trying so hard?
uh thats not really how seeding works?
how do I make it work to start the game with the hammer I want?
you reset until you get the hammer you want
or use mods
once you got a seed with a starting hammer you want you have to give up when you die and you get it again
but if you switch keepsakes it might advance the rng again if you dont get it then
but if I reset, I get the same hammer
you die
you don't give up
you go & die & try again until you get the hammer you want
I can't die fast without the right pacts
does changing the pact change the hammer?
is that hammer really so important?
yeah
why
with fists, I get 600-800 damage crits with the right hammer
obviously a huge deal
I dont know for sure, try it I dont think i'd change
what hammer?
explosive damage with the magnet thing
you can always try without it
maybe you'll get it with your second hammer
it would probably be faster then trying to get it at the start
i gotta say gilgafists are some of the most fun ive had doing runs
if not, I guess you could always check out the modding server (pinned in #self-promotion if I remember right) & see if there's something to help you there
I don't like gilga much
me no like maim
so the odds are that bad huh
I'm playing on the Switch
its not Gilgamesh
I've never seen a need to do it
it's Talos
yes, I know you're using Talos
I'm early into my Hell Mode run
but that doesn't mean fluffs can't say they like gilga
its just that the chances ain't so bad to see the right hammer in a run or even win without it
vs resetting forever
but if you wanna seed you gotta do it the hard way sadly
ye i was just throwin out there that gilga fun becausee dash dance big fun
so if ive got all the chthonic gods at the favor stage will i automatically fulfill their favors by just playing n talking to people?
and eventually fulfill their favor?
you have to do some stuff
2 have prophecies you need to do
1 needs you to use a maxed keepsake
1 needs you to have 2/3 love interest bonds
uhm..
1 is very dialogue based
and I can't remember the rest 
though one is locked for a while
perfect catch again
AND BASS AGAIN
i swear to god getting sturgeons is gonna kill me
also they're technically WORSE THAN BASSES
if you get a bass you get ambrosia
if you get sturgeon you get blood
BUT YOU CAN GET BLOOD WITH AMBROSIA
and the blood to ambrosia price is 2 BLOOD FOR ONE AMBROSIA
you only need so much ambro tho 😗
anyway i beat 9 heat bow
you also only need so much blood
ye, but it's so much easier maxing ambro
also you can't buy ambro in charon shop
what
what's special deal day
oh i don't mean broker
broker is good
but like
you can buy blood with 1200 obols
don't have the money
not when I don't have the money
and I need the money for boons when I'm doing heat runs 
I'm not gonna lose my streak until I have to
it's at 62
I wasn't gonna keep a streak
but when I got to 20 I was just "eh, why not"
and now it's over 60 & I kinda wanna see it hit 100 before I lose it
Dusa
hers goes up
you have to give her 10 to max her hearts
total
if I remember correctly
you can get them back if you want to
how
I decided to let her keep it
she asks you if you want them back..
I told her no
I don't need it
I'd rather my snek platonic soul mate have it
on one hand i want to spite the guy that says that dusa sucks
because there's one in this server
have you done all prophecies?
not yet
get hidden aspects & do those
already did that
o_o
rama is fun
first time I beat game with fist was first time I beat hades
explosive shot rama is the stupidest slowest thing ever
first 5 times i beat hades was with BOW
2nd time was no aspect fist 26 mins
3rd time was no aspect rail
I can't even remember when I beat the game w bow
but it took me ages
I don't really like gilga cuz I don't like maim
and me & bow don't get along - the less said the better
:<
but that's the point
thats...
I don't use special on fist
i only run ME on it to be funny
to get maim
I only dash-strike & attack
and deal more damage
and maim ruined that
maim improved that
I used maim & nearly got killed right away
my MO is to dash into attacks
if you've been warned once.. don't try & do it again right after

if you're muted it's 5 mins
talk to a mod if you wanna get it manually unmuted, not me
Woo~! 💕 
I had the BEST paladin build
the holy sword excalibur, with cursed slash & then I got divine protection 
I beat dad with basically a full hp bar 
Nice! Fighting for the light and the good like a fallen angel. 
used the bracelet keepsake cuz I was lvling it & it worked real well for me that run 
there's a reason Luci is the patron!
Making all the souls in the afterlife suffer. A true paragon of virtue.
nods nods Makes sense.

Oh yeah. 

There's gotta be a mod for that, right? ;_;

seriously, what prevents them from letting us reach it again? Just have persephone not spawn, have something to interact with, and interacting causes the "game over" narration that says he had time to water some plant or whatever
also 
My thoughts exactly. But maybe that's a statement "Sunrises aren't everlasting"
Funny death concepts
some of the funny deaths don't even make sense; one is about dying from old age/waiting long enough, but doesn't this imply he could have made it?
someday the narrator will run out of ideas
Just you wait
Its gonna be any day now
and then we'll go back to Greece
(that was the joke, yeah)
