#

Yes I have that one

hallow peak
#

Yeah

half zephyr
#

at max it's 5

#

and it's better

rapid bear
#

I got Patroclus' today, I have only 1 left now

rapid bear
half zephyr
#

cuz 5 hits is a lot of dmg

rapid bear
#

Also, is levelling up all sakes to 3 a good idea?

hallow peak
#

I mostly use pom blossom

half zephyr
#

I'm doing it just cuz

#

do it for the ones you use a lot first

hallow peak
#

Oh pom blossom is the one you are missing

half zephyr
#

then you can do the others

half zephyr
hallow peak
#

Don’t wait trying to get it

half zephyr

#

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

hallow peak
#

I didn’t think about it

rapid bear
hallow peak
#

Also thats not that bad of a spoiler

high island
#

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.

half zephyr
#

gems be cosmetic

hallow peak
#

To pimp his crib yo

half zephyr
#

max out keys first

rapid bear
half zephyr
#

then do gems

#

there's only a few things story wise that need gems

hallow peak
#

I just prefer hades aspect on the spear

rapid bear
# half zephyr gems be cosmetic

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

hallow peak
#

Can do much more damage

rapid bear
#

And it was the most unexpected

hallow peak
#

Same

rapid bear
#

Like I had hardly used it 3 times before

#

But that run went so good and I managed beating em

half zephyr
#

ok

rapid bear
#

I am in love w the Arthur aspect now 😭

half zephyr
#

onwards with my PALADIN RUN!

rapid bear
#

BWAHHAHAA

hallow peak

HUZZAH

high island
rapid bear
#

Thank you for your help everybody :D

hallow peak
#

I think the special for gaun yu is cool but its underpowered

rapid bear
#

Also alsoz one mor question

hallow peak
#

It doesn’t ricochet if you get that hammer

rapid bear
#

The only heart max out I've done is with Charon, and he took Ambrosia before the bond

hallow peak
#

Well it does

#

But the range is so decreased for that

rapid bear
hallow peak
#

That it will only happen with like 2 enemies

high island
#

It's far from underpowered.

rapid bear
#

For the bond**

rapid bear
bleak crag
#

FINALLY

#

I GOT ASTERIUS

#

AHHHHHH

rapid bear

#

#

dusky wedge

bleak crag
sage glade
#

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?

hallow peak
#

I THROW DOWN THE SHACKLES THAT HOLD ME IN PLACE SCREW YOU RNG

grand crystal
#

like hera is good right off the bat but something like chiron takes a bit more love to really shine

rapid bear
grand crystal
#

otherwise you could get soo much attack and evade from styx

rapid bear
#

Isn't that the +1.1% dodge chance increment one?

sage glade
#

yeah i was just doing some darkness farming runs and i felt 300 iq thinking i could use the butterfly at the end

grand crystal
sage glade
#

dammit

grand crystal
#

plume is the 1.2% evade and move at max

rapid bear
half zephyr
#

WOOO

rapid bear
hallow peak
#

You should try doing a boonless run with arthurs sword @rapid bear

sage glade
hallow peak
#

And use the shackle

dusky wedge
#

It is kinda confusing to have two different meaning for “one encounter” for than’s keepsake vs everything else

rapid bear
#

Im so bad at remembering the names of the keepsakes still😭

hallow peak
#

And get hoarding slash

half zephyr
#

damnit

#

when the athena boons are useless

hallow peak
#

3,000 obals means

rapid bear
grand crystal
half zephyr
#

I got Deathless stand, Last stand & Holy Shield - and I haven't lost a single DD

rapid bear
sage glade
rapid bear
half zephyr
#

and they're all epic

#

at least I have 1 reroll

dusky wedge
half zephyr
#

HAHAH

rapid bear
half zephyr
#

@high island I have unshakable mettle now ir_evil_devil_laugh

half zephyr
dusky wedge
rapid bear
#

It hurts the most when you reach Patroclus and you see that Kiss of Styx premium but you haven't lost a single DD....

half zephyr
#

I haven't lost something to replenish

rapid bear
#

That's just pain on another level

half zephyr
#

and the reroll gave me

#

of all things

hallow peak
#

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

bleak crag
rapid bear
dusky wedge
#

I know it’s probably fine for most people but my designer mindset thinks it’s horrendous lmao

half zephyr
#

unshakable mettle yay

and deathless stand & last stand

grand crystal
hallow peak
#

Yep

rapid bear
#

The max Oval I've had in 1 run was like 500 so far T_T

hallow peak
#

Because no boons

rapid bear
hallow peak
#

I bought poms

half zephyr
#

obol*

grand crystal
hallow peak
#

Which just gave me more money

rapid bear
#

Alright I've to head out now, twas hella fun discussing here, cyall around!!

hallow peak
#

Also learned that hermes swift strike doesn’t influence shackle

#

So slow arthur got faster

grand crystal
sage glade
#

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

rapid bear
#

Thank you Plum, Shadow, Oil and everyone else that helped :D have a good day/night where you are

hallow peak
#

Then I did a truly boonless run and still did good not picking up any boons

brisk trail
#

signal aspen
#

brisk trail
#

and do more damage?

signal aspen
#

yeah

#

yeah

brisk trail
#

hmmm

signal aspen
#

yeah

brisk trail
#

what would be better extending jab or massive spin

#

massive spin probably cause imma need those heals

signal aspen
#

massive spin

#

i like it more than extending jab

grand crystal
#

imo perfect hammers on guan yu is charged skewer + quick spin

signal aspen
#

especially since guan yu attack isnt that good

grand crystal
#

massive is nice on it but not my go to

#

but compared to extending take massive

brisk trail
#

god idk which keepsake to take for the last fight

#

skelly or cerberus, i have em both maxed

signal aspen
#

acorn

half zephyr
#

the answer is usually acorn

brisk trail

lmao

brisk trail

signal aspen
cunning cradle
#

signal aspen
grand crystal
#

brisk trail
#

hmmm

grand crystal
#

half zephyr
#

myrmidon bracelet not that bad

brisk trail
#

cunning cradle
#

dad is kinda slow, but it can be confusing the first times

brisk trail
#

isnt it better with cerberus though since i have a chance to heal

brisk trail

signal aspen
#

grand crystal
#

yea no take acorn

signal aspen
#

cunning cradle

grand crystal

brisk trail
#

if its considered that good

half zephyr
#

Oh is it a song

What does em stand for

signal aspen
half zephyr
#

if someone had told me the music was THIS

#

I just

#

I love it so much

grand crystal
#

my favorite track is lament of orpheus :3

#

thats more so my genre

half zephyr
#

it reminds me of a combination of dragonforce & babymetal

grand crystal
#

it slaps

hallow peak
#

Why doesn’t orpheus sing along though with the songs that have lyrics

grand crystal
#

like

half zephyr
#

cuz it's instrumental

hallow peak
#

Sort of upsetting to not hear that great sound again

grand crystal
#

i wanted to have him sing lament on command so i got the song

hallow peak
#

From in the blood

half zephyr
#

if you wanna hear them sing

#

Or how do you know what that means

half zephyr
# hallow peak Where did you learn german shadow

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

grand crystal

there's no words to describe

half zephyr
quaint pagoda
#

Tv show? What do you mean

compact badger
#

Just realized that the head chef is skinny shadeohboy
I want to trust him, but...

red gust
#

he’s got a high metabolism leave him alone

digital python
#

u ever buy a boon in styx and it gives you not one, not two, but three different duo boon options

compact badger
#

He stands and cooks all day (or night), so maybe you're up to something

half zephyr
#

mhmm

#

I've also been offered 2 duos & a legendary

digital python
#

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

signal aspen
#

its a scam

#

there is no difference

digital python
#

really?

signal aspen
#

i feel no difference

digital python
#

but can u prove that like. mathmetically

#

did someone like datamine & find that out

half zephyr
#

there is one

signal aspen
#

i dont care

#

its just rng

#

and rng is a scam

half zephyr
#

but there's also this thing called bad rng

digital python
#

well that's stupid that's how how rng works

compact badger
#

Do Chaos +rarity boons also apply to duos?

signal aspen
#

im pretty sure

brisk trail
#

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

half zephyr
#

mhm

brisk trail
#

oh i just got the perfect trial

#

zeus n athena

signal aspen
signal aspen

oh

what a moment

you can't get duos from trials

NOOOOOO I GOTTA WORK FRIDAY NIGHT, I WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE IT OFF.

RIP Hermes Cup.

rip

brisk trail

whats the hermes cup

signal aspen
brisk trail
#

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

signal aspen
#

idk

untold geyser
#

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

signal aspen
#

talos? 600 damage?

untold geyser
#

not sure if so much damage came from just those three, or also Poseidon's knockback boon

signal aspen
untold geyser
#

but the Special was Artemis

#

was critting and dealing 600+ damage from like the first area or so

signal aspen
#

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?

untold geyser
#

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

signal aspen
#

no

untold geyser
#

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

signal aspen
#

i dont think the explosion knocks enemies away

grand crystal
#

knockback does stupid damage :/

untold geyser
#

yeah constant 600-800 damage crits by just using Artemis special

grand crystal
#

if you slam them into a wall

untold geyser
#

so how does Talos trigger knockback?

#

without Poseidon?

grand crystal
#

but wall slams cant crit unless you have pressure points

grand crystal
untold geyser
#

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

manic moat
#

it does actually

#

talos special pulls it in and poseidon on the special knocks it away

#

unless it got patched out or something

untold geyser
#

yeah but I had ARTEMIS

signal aspen
#

"artemis special"

untold geyser
#

no Pressure Points I don't think

signal aspen
#

unless the game calls the pull a knockback

untold geyser
#

even if I had PP, it wouldn't crit ALL THE FREAKING TIME

signal aspen
#

im just surprised you can hit a crit all the time

untold geyser
#

me too

#

no mention of Knockback here

#

can you Knockback without Poseidon?

manic moat
#

shield attack

untold geyser
#

iirc

grand crystal
#

shield does a bit

untold geyser
#

the sword special

manic moat
#

yea

grand crystal
#

^^that too

untold geyser
#

there's a hammer upgrade that stops it from knocking back

manic moat
#

both have a hammer that makes the knockback moves not knockback and hit twice instead

untold geyser
#

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

signal aspen
#

so basically its just better zeus

untold geyser
#

doesn't sea storm cause Poseidon moves to inflict Jolted?

terse seal
#

so when are the rats getting removed lmao

signal aspen
#

yeah

signal aspen
terse seal
#

BRUH LMFAOO

untold geyser
#

the game stats

untold geyser
#

it gives electric effects to knockback moves

brisk trail
#

Sea Storm causes Poseidon knockback to drop a lightning bolt.

untold geyser
#

sword special / shield attack are knockback moves

signal aspen
#

it causes knockback moves to make a lightning strike

brisk trail
#

It will share most/all T2 effects that Zeus has.

untold geyser
#

including the two weapons above?

half zephyr
brisk trail
#

Last I checked it's specifically Poseidon knockback.

terse seal
#

i hate the poison tho

half zephyr
#

then don't stand in it

signal aspen
untold geyser
#

besides bows, is anything good for hangover builds?

signal aspen
untold geyser
#

okay gotcha

#

with any specific hammer upgrade?

signal aspen
#

and also chaos shield

signal aspen
untold geyser
#

can you hit the same enemy multiple times with the chaos shield?

signal aspen
#

yeah

untold geyser
#

I got disappointed with the shield

#

it was my first investment to skill level 5

signal aspen
#

for hangover builds you should always try to get weak, and doom

untold geyser
#

and it just resulted in laughable damage every time I tried it

half zephyr
#

pinball 2 is fun

#

pinball 1 too

#

and beyblade is hilarious

#

great fun

signal aspen
#

beyblade is the best shield

half zephyr
#

mhm

untold geyser
#

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

grand crystal
#

its all just luck

#

iirc

#

like sometimes you just get a perfect pool

slow plank
#

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

sage swift
#

Hades

hollow hawk
#

Its just that after you get 4 gods in your pool, you won't see any more other than those 4

slow plank
#

that was bad phrasing, i mean like it draws a random 4 gods at the beginning? thats how i assumed it was done

hollow hawk
#

no

half zephyr
hollow hawk
#

The game rolls almost everything, from boons to sack rng, on the spot

slow plank
hollow hawk
#

Yeah

half zephyr
#

so if you don't go for a god at the start, you essentially reject that god

hollow hawk
#

You can just avoid gods you dont want

half zephyr
#

sometimes your hands be tied tho

hollow hawk
#

Take health instead of the god that is offered, e.g

slow plank
#

i guess that explains why ive had scenarios where i rolled so many gods in rerolls in tartarus

half zephyr
#

so

#

the room reroll

#

if you use it on a god you'll only get a god

hollow hawk
#

Or a pom

slow plank
#

thats not true

hollow hawk
#

Or gold

#

Or health

#

Or hammer

slow plank
#

yeah

#

ive gotten all sorts of stuff

hollow hawk
#

But yeah, gold laurels cant role into blue laurels

grand crystal
#

if its a miniboss reward thats a god

#

you only get a god iirc

hollow hawk
#

^^

#

Yeah

half zephyr
#

I've been told they only roll into the specifics, but I guess they didn't explain well enough

slow plank
#

havent tried that yet

half zephyr
#

I haven't touched authority since I used it for the prophecy

hollow hawk
#

Gold laurels are poms, gold, boons, hammers and health

slow plank
#

sounds like a good rng manip tactic in tartarus tho if you get lucky

hollow hawk
#

Things you use for the current run only

half zephyr
#

it's not worth giving up persuasion

hollow hawk
#

Blue laurels are everything else, darkness, nectar, keys, gems

half zephyr
#

I can live with using any god

#

it's more difficult having to use any boon

simple moat
#

for the steam ||clear elysium with em|| achievement do i need to put on ||em3||?

half zephyr
#

idk

#

I'd do it anyway

#

em3 is easy

slow plank
#

yes pretty sure

hollow hawk
#

i dont know anything about steam achievements, but id assume so

#

Didnt you already clear em2

#

stella

simple moat
#

yeah

hollow hawk
#

yeah, then just take em3

simple moat
#

that's why im thinking it myst be 3

#

yeah

half zephyr
#

you might get taken down first go at em3

hollow hawk
#

dont take any Forced overtime with em3 btw, asterius scary

half zephyr
#

but it's so easy once you get used to asterius

#

theseus is more useless

slow plank
#

bring earplugs for theseus

half zephyr
#

can just ignore him

hollow hawk
#

Its still harder than the normal fight by a large margin

half zephyr
half zephyr
hollow hawk
#

but yeah, like every boss fight, it gets easier the more you play

half zephyr
#

I lost a dd

#

to theseus

slow plank
#

rather commit toaster bath than listen to theseus talk which is how you know he was written perfectly

hollow hawk
#

Theseus blocks like 30% of the arena in em3

half zephyr
#

cuz I forgot he attacked me during phase 1

slow plank
#

meant to be annoying, does it well

hollow hawk
#

And asterius charges at you with supersonic speed

#

And spins

half zephyr
#

and he's super easy to evade

#

and you can just tail theseus

#

he's super easy to ignore

#

asterius telegraphs all his moves

hollow hawk
#

idk normal fight is just so much more easier

#

They attack slower, they have less moves

#

The arena is bigger

half zephyr
#

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

slow plank
#

i know people say shield is good but i can not for the life of me enjoy playing shield for some reason

half zephyr
#

have you tried zeus shield?

slow plank
#

i did

half zephyr
#

zeus shield w either zeus or artemis special is great

slow plank
#

idk ive been riding the rail train for so long

hollow hawk
#

I had a hard time getting into shield

#

Samee

half zephyr
#

and add support fire

hollow hawk
#

beowulf was decent for me though

half zephyr
#

shudder

#

I do not like that one

hollow hawk
#

If you're on keyboard/mouse, i would highly recommend using attack at cursor for shield

slow plank
#

still dont even have secret unlocked on that one, im on at least 5-7 heat with most other weapons

#

i play controller

hollow hawk
#

ah

#

It also helps seeing other people play

#

Dont be too passive with shield

#

Blocking is good, but dont overdo it

slow plank
#

was thinking about getting one of those keypad/joysticks tho., i think itd be crazy optimized to do joystick movement with mouse aim

half zephyr
#

I dash-strike all the time & forget I can block hehe

#

bull rush is not part of my move set

hollow hawk
#

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

slow plank
#

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

half zephyr
#

things to get on zeus shield - empowering flight, support fire & a sweet special

slow plank
#

so my brain is like "time to shut down"

#

is chiron the go-to for bows? or rama?

hollow hawk
#

All the bow aspects are amazing

#

try all of them tbh

slow plank
#

as long as i have athena dash anything is possible tbh

brisk trail
#

wait so does extreme measure on the hades fight just add the cerberus thing and the 3rd revive where you have like limited vcision?

heavy hound
#

He also becomes faster and has new moves

ebon horizon
#

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

heavy hound
#

whats happening?

ebon horizon
#

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

heavy hound
#

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

ebon horizon
#

ik its what ive always done

heavy hound
#

oh

#

hmm

#

idk then

ebon horizon
#

and it always says saved like 1-2 minutes ago

heavy hound
#

make sure you see the save button go off before you exit

red gust
untold geyser
#

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?

brisk trail
#

uh thats not really how seeding works?

untold geyser
#

how do I make it work to start the game with the hammer I want?

brisk trail
#

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

untold geyser
#

but if I reset, I get the same hammer

half zephyr
#

you die

#

you don't give up

#

you go & die & try again until you get the hammer you want

untold geyser
#

I can't die fast without the right pacts

brisk trail
#

yeah giving up keeps the seed

#

you need to die

untold geyser
#

does changing the pact change the hammer?

half zephyr
#

is that hammer really so important?

untold geyser
#

yeah

half zephyr
#

why

untold geyser
#

with fists, I get 600-800 damage crits with the right hammer

#

obviously a huge deal

brisk trail
#

I dont know for sure, try it I dont think i'd change

half zephyr
#

what hammer?

untold geyser
#

explosive damage with the magnet thing

half zephyr
#

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

slow plank
#

i gotta say gilgafists are some of the most fun ive had doing runs

half zephyr
#

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

untold geyser
#

I'm playing on the Switch

half zephyr
#

aah, me too

#

I have never tried manipulating it like that so I wouldn't know

untold geyser
#

its not Gilgamesh

half zephyr
#

I've never seen a need to do it

untold geyser
#

it's Talos

half zephyr
#

yes, I know you're using Talos

untold geyser
#

I'm early into my Hell Mode run

half zephyr
#

but that doesn't mean fluffs can't say they like gilga

brisk trail
#

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

half zephyr
#

plus you might have the anvil at the end if your hammers are total busts

brisk trail
#

but if you wanna seed you gotta do it the hard way sadly

slow plank
#

ye i was just throwin out there that gilga fun becausee dash dance big fun

brisk trail
#

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?

half zephyr
#

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 bunnygirlroll

#

though one is locked for a while

rapid agate
#

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

half zephyr
#

you only need so much ambro tho 😗

rapid agate
#

anyway i beat 9 heat bow

half zephyr
#

I need more blood

rapid agate
half zephyr
#

ye, but it's so much easier maxing ambro

rapid agate
#

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

half zephyr
#

ooh, charon shop oop

#

misread

#

I never buy that

rapid agate
#

y

#

easy way to farm

half zephyr
#

don't have the money

rapid agate
#

you can also beat the game+get blood

#

so good when you do that

half zephyr
#

not when I don't have the money

#

and I need the money for boons when I'm doing heat runs hehe

#

I'm not gonna lose my streak until I have to

rapid agate
#

damn

#

you keepin a streak?

half zephyr
#

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

rapid agate
#

wait i just gave

#

2 ambrosia

#

to someone

#

and it was dusa

half zephyr
#

Dusa

#

hers goes up

#

you have to give her 10 to max her hearts

#

total

#

if I remember correctly

rapid agate
#

JESUS

#

10 AMBROSIA???????

half zephyr
#

you can get them back if you want to

rapid agate
#

how

half zephyr
#

I decided to let her keep it

#

she asks you if you want them back..

#

I told her no

#

I don't need it

rapid agate
#

frick

#

it's a moral dillemna

half zephyr
#

I'd rather my snek platonic soul mate have it

rapid agate
#

on one hand i want to spite the guy that says that dusa sucks

#

because there's one in this server

half zephyr
#

I think of it as rewarding her hard work

#

cuz she is one busy gorgon head

rapid agate
#

on the other hand i don't wanna spend more time

#

i mean i do

#

but really it's hard

half zephyr
#

have you done all prophecies?

rapid agate
#

not yet

half zephyr
#

then see if any give ambro

#

and just do that

rapid agate
#

technically didn't reach the epilogue

#

so i have like

#

20 ambro

#

to get

half zephyr
#

get hidden aspects & do those

rapid agate
#

already did that

half zephyr
#

wao

#

I saved those for last

rapid agate
#

first time i beat the game with fists was gilgamesh

#

gilgamesh is awesome

half zephyr
#

o_o

rapid agate
#

rama is fun

half zephyr
#

first time I beat game with fist was first time I beat hades

rapid agate
#

explosive shot rama is the stupidest slowest thing ever

half zephyr
#

no aspect fist

#

29 mins

rapid agate
half zephyr
#

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

rapid agate
#

i love maim

#

risk reward

half zephyr
#

and me & bow don't get along - the less said the better

rapid agate
#

i know

#

but i love it to bits

half zephyr
#

I don't like it cuz it doesn't fit my playstyle

#

maim

rapid agate
#

maim+ares on special

#

double whammy

half zephyr
#

but that's the point

grand crystal
#

thats...

half zephyr
#

I don't use special on fist

grand crystal
#

interesting

#

tbh im not a fan of gilga

rapid agate
#

me neither

#

i use it just once

grand crystal
#

i only run ME on it to be funny

rapid agate
#

to get maim

half zephyr
#

I only dash-strike & attack

rapid agate
#

and deal more damage

half zephyr
#

and maim ruined that

rapid agate
#

maim improved that

half zephyr
#

I used maim & nearly got killed right away

rapid agate
#

for me

#

just maim+ dash around and attack

half zephyr
#

my MO is to dash into attacks

rapid agate
#

it helps that gilgamesh gave like

#

+2 dashes

half zephyr
#

I don't really dash around

#

I dash into enemies

#

so maim was not fun

rapid agate
#

oh btw

#

there

#

but

#

aight

half zephyr
#

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

i want to go back to the persephone area 😦

new game time

compact badger
#

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

willow root
sacred tendon
#

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 dusa

compact badger
#

My thoughts exactly. But maybe that's a statement "Sunrises aren't everlasting"

modern arch
#

Funny death concepts

sacred tendon
#

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?

hollow hawk
#

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

sacred tendon
#

well, he technically already did

#

it's canon that he's re-using them

(that was the joke, yeah)
