How's Dio's Call in terms of damage potential?

signal aspen
#

its pretty good

rapid forum
#

My whole life is a lie dusa

cedar olive
#

I read Hangover builds rack up damage fast

signal aspen
#

yeah they do

cedar olive
#

Had the pleasure of running Drunken Strike on the fists, disgusting DPS

#

And I'm sure it gets a lot better

signal aspen
#

yeah hangover can do a ton of damage

simple blaze
#

usually i like to use drunken strike, curse of pain, tidal dash and trippy shot

cedar olive
#

Curse of Pain is Doom on special?

simple blaze
#

yes

cedar olive
#

Chip damage galore

#

I'm making notes of this

is there a limit to how many times hangover can stack?

#

5 i think

signal aspen
cedar olive
#

Meanwhile here I struggle to get to Elysium reliably zaglol

brisk trail
#

then is there any benefit to running multiple things with hangover?

signal aspen
#

no i dont think so

half zephyr
#

There isn’t

stone karma
#

ive finished hades and now i probably wont play it ever again

half zephyr
#

Did you get the credits

half zephyr
#

The epilogue

#

The side stories

stone karma
half zephyr
stone karma
#

i dont think so

half zephyr
#

You’ve done a clear

stone karma
#

i killed hades

half zephyr
#

Congrats

#

More story is now unlocked

signal aspen
stone karma
#

half zephyr
#

Ye

#

The epilogue is next

signal aspen
stone karma
#

zag met his mom and then he got sent back the the underworld because he is binded to that place

half zephyr
#

No

#

That’s not the end

signal aspen
#

that is 10% of the story

stone karma
#

thats not?

half zephyr
#

That’s not the end credits

stone karma
#

then how do i get the ending

signal aspen
#

the story ends when you see the credits

half zephyr
#

You do it all over again

signal aspen
half zephyr
#

Multiple times

stone karma
#

breaks door nope

half zephyr
#

That’s how you play this kind of game

#

It’s a roguelite!

signal aspen
#

yeah

stone karma
#

thats not how i play it!

half zephyr
#

You play the game by doing it over & over

#

That’s the genre

#

You didn’t even get the end credits song

stone karma
#

eh, i dont feel like killing hades that many more times

brisk trail
signal aspen
brisk trail
#

yeah

half zephyr
#

Ok then

#

That’s an odd choice for this kind of game but ok

stone karma
#

so im not gonna play anymore,it got tedious after a while so im not continuing that

half zephyr
#

Aah, not one for the genre then I guess

stone karma
#

i like the genre

signal aspen
#

why would you buy a roguelite and play it once

half zephyr
#

How

stone karma
#

i dont like that i have to play it more

half zephyr
#

But

#

That’s the genre!!

brisk trail
#

well, in fairness, hades is one of the shorter roguelikes from my experience

stone karma
#

ener the gungeon doesent do that!i think, i never beat that one

brisk trail
#

in terms of how long it takes to beat the first time

half zephyr
#

And it’s the same

#

You play again & again & again

stone karma
#

is the end song in the soundtrack on steam?

half zephyr
#

We got lucky with all the story in hades

signal aspen
half zephyr
#

You didn’t even see the pact..

signal aspen
#

yeah

half zephyr
#

I’m sad now

stone karma
#

FINE

#

IM GONNA PLAY IT MORE

signal aspen
#

nice

brisk trail
#

lmao neasy you dont have to do that

half zephyr
brisk trail
#

cmon guys dont peer pressure

signal aspen
#

ok

#

dont play it

brisk trail
#

lmao

half zephyr
#

Ye no I don’t care if they play or not

stone karma
#

nahh

#

im not playing 360 hours of that game

half zephyr
#

You don’t need 360

stone karma
#

i did the math and i would need 360 more hours

brisk trail
signal aspen
half zephyr
#

One tends to get better

#

Learning patterns & stuff

brisk trail
#

it took me like i think about 15 hours or so to beat it the first time and only like another 5 to beat it 9 more times

#

cause by that point i had learned

craggy barn
#

360 hours? of what?

brisk trail
#

and im sure it would be the same for you

#

but again, if you dont want to play more you dont have to

signal aspen
#

or something

#

its not gonna take that long

craggy barn
#

360 hours to get to the true ending is an absurd estimate

stone karma
#

it took me 40 minutes to beat the run that i beat the game in,if i need to do it 9 more times, and im not gonna get any better, then 40 times 9=360

#

boom

#

wait

unborn remnant
#

After my first clear I realized how much it started to click

#

thats 360 minutes

stone karma
#

oh

stone karma
#

im an idiot

unborn remnant
#

~6 hours

signal aspen
#

see

signal aspen
#

its not gonna take that long

stone karma
#

i want the story and i dont want to play the game 9 more times,i barely won the first time

#

with 22 hp

#

and no more dds

stone karma
#

with a crap ton of resitance

#

signal aspen
#

then turn on godmode

#

once you finish the story turn it off

stone karma
#

i wish godmode was actually godmode

#

like you cant die godmode

brisk trail
#

stone karma

In the rare circumstance that Achilles has disappeared from the main hub, if you begin clicking the 'unlock' door action repeatedly on the locked door in the South West most corner of the map, there's a chance that a phantom speech bubble will pop up at the normal position of Achilles and scold you spooky

Finally getting round to playing this game, and on run 4 I managed to get to Theseus and the Minotaur 😂 I guess 450 hours in Dead Cells helped somehow
I'm absolutely loving this game!

I just bought Hades and I don't know if I am really dumb or missing something. I fought for a bit, then died of course and was sent back to the house where I picked a new weapon and some buffs. I decided I wanted to go back to fighting, found the spot at the ledge where Zagreus talks about escaping for a sec and it says to the left, 6 chambers. It doesn't do anything though and I can't figure out how to get back to fighting?

#

||ares-nyx thing after the epilogue was so awkward though||

hollow hawk
#

To something that occurs in the game

stone karma

After the epilogue

#

Its nothing too big

#

But still

#

a spoiler's a spoiler

stone karma
#

im looking at it

#

i cant not look at it

high island
#

Considering all the questions Neasyellek is asking and that they're in a channel that welcomes spoilers, m not sure they mind spoilers lol.

stone karma
#

thats nothing

high island
#

"All spoilers welcome!" is literally the first sentence in the channel description.

stone karma
#

im just concerned on what happens if you max out than dusa and meg in the same save

hollow hawk
#

Yeah but i figured I'd still warn

#

well if you wanna know for certain, ||there is a threesome between than and meg and zag, dusa's not involved though||

stone karma
#

before i look im gonna assume some sort of fight happens

brisk trail
#

No.

#

Well.

#

Depends.

hollow hawk
#

i guess you could call it a fight

#

lol

that kind of reminds me of this small budget independent film called Shrek, you wouldn't know of it
there was this one scene where the protagonist is following the secondary character, and talks about how his species, Ogres, are reminiscent to Onions, being that they are layered, complex beings, that make you cry and stink like a fresh hot dookie

I'm trying to get the onion entry filled out in the codex but... I have a problem

Onions for days

Well, just do them on higher heat. Easy.

void vigil
#

i failed on purpose for the onion entry back when you still needed even more onions to unlock it

high island
#

I've no idea if my onion entry is completed. It probably is.

stone karma
#

how do i get a cthonic companion

signal aspen
#

then fill it with ambrosia

#

and you get one

stone karma
#

does cerb work?

signal aspen
#

no

stone karma
#

who does

signal aspen
#

do you want me to tell you?

stone karma
#

ye

signal aspen
#

meg, than, sisyphus, dusa, skelly, achilles and pat

void vigil
#

i remember telling myself i will never play with heat ever again after i completed the onion entry, lol. but now when i play i never go below 20 heat

stone karma
signal aspen
#

havent you heard

#

"There is no escape"

stone karma
#

i'll do achilles i guess

warped iron
#

blood and darkness

signal aspen
stone karma
#

even though i wasted my ambrosia on cerb

#

which is the easiest?

signal aspen
#

meg

modern garnet
#

You'll get more ambrosia don't worry about it

stone karma
#

:(

signal aspen
#

or you can do than

#

those are probably the easiest

stone karma
#

still due to our last topic >:(

signal aspen
stone karma
#

i'll do than only since he is the god of death

#

but how do i get more ambrosia

signal aspen
#

kill the heroes at different heat levels or with different weapons

modern garnet
#

Skelly can be pretty straightforward he has a lot less dialog... but you do have to spend a bit of blood

signal aspen
#

or you can trade 2 diamonds for ambrosia

high island
#

The "easiest" depends on RNG tbh because conversation arcs progress at different rates for different people based on what other arcs you've unlocked etc.

warped iron
spring tapir
#

skelly was the first one i got to unlock

stone karma
#

what are the cthonic companions

clear python
stone karma
signal aspen
#

bruh

signal aspen
stone karma
#

what are they

#

do they do anything?

signal aspen
#

they do damage

warped iron
#

they're like calls except once per room

#

and limited times per run

clear python
#

Which is your fav companion?

stone karma
#

thans will be sufficient

#

now im talking like hades wtf

high island
#

Just get all of them. dusa

modern garnet
# clear python Howwww

I'm really good at focusing very hard for short periods of time, and I only run heat that doesn't make erebus gates harder, and I'm only at 10 heat anyway

clear python
#

Oooh

high island
#

Try Infernal Gates in Elysium when you're at 15 Heat. dusa

warped iron
#

no

clear python
#

I mean i got quite surprised since Erebus has always been hard even in low minimal heat lol

stone karma
#

so to get thans compainion i just get the bond for him and then give him ambrosia?

signal aspen
stone karma
#

the gold one?

signal aspen
#

you unlock the bond once you fill all his hearts

signal aspen
#

the first one

clear python
#

I love Zag's way of getting close

stone karma
#

OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH

high island
#

You get the Companion before you forge the bond.

stone karma
#

wait no

#

Erebus isn't easy, but my pupils dilate and I sweat and then the room is over and suddenly I have 50 more health

On the run I just did I used all the opposite mirror upgrades from a conventional run and beat [Redacted] with the Hades Aspect (spear is my least favorite weapon). 1 TB from slaying [Redacted] with the spear as it was my first time with that weapon. 1 from the Sturgeon. Plus 8 from the prophecy completing the mirror escape challenge. Boom. Easy 10 TB

Is lucifer's special's passive good?

signal aspen
#

The passive?

#

Like the little wave things coming from the ball?

sacred prism
#

Yes

signal aspen
#

Nah it's bad

high island
modern garnet
#

It can be alright sometimes depending on the effect but it's nothing to rely on

high island
#

The pulse damage is decent for crowds.

modern garnet
#

If you get Zeus special on lucifer, the passive effect will detonate the bomb with lightning when an enemy gets close, and that's cool

high island
#

It's also poor damage, but cool, I guess.

modern garnet
#

It's an interaction of mechanics you wouldn't expect! I wouldn't.. recommend it

#

Also with poseidon special you can get some sort of zone control, which... is a playstyle I guess

#

Probably best just to go for aphro/arte special on luci...

But I'll still avenge you. Next time I fight them, it'll be for you.

If you have 4 bombs next to each other they automatically explode

So with the hammer upgrade which allows you shoot three bombs at once its really easy to do a lot of damage

She doesn't give the dialouge

You have to talk to her in your chambers

signal aspen

Just talk to her after every run

Why is Dusa do expensive????

Is there a limit to how many duo boons you can get?

#

Is companions mort the best?

brisk trail
#

meg is the most used generally

for speedruns and igh heat

sacred prism
#

But companion mort does more damage

#

And with meg its hard to get more than one hit on bosses

brisk trail
#

meg is fast reliable dmg

#

mort takes a while and enemies might get out of range

#

its slow :(

Now that I got to Styx, is there any tell on the good door?

high island
#

Nope.

#

It's never the first one you take, after that it's RNG.

Figures

high island
#

54% chance that it's the second tunnel you take.

cedar olive
#

Useful data

#

(Also take THAT Theseus!)

high island
#

Yeah, King Theseus! Take that!

#

The strategy for speedruns and high heat is do the miniboss tunnels first because they're faster and more predictable.

#

And also the rewards are better.

#

E.g., Centaur Hearts give +50 HP instead of +25.

So harder enemies and less of them

signal aspen
#

For a speedrun you prioritize damage

So one big enemy is a lot easier than a bunch of enemies

sacred prism

Which boons would you chose?

signal aspen
cyan sundial
sacred prism
#

Are you talking about ambrosia?

cyan sundial
#

no, nectar

#

the round bottles right?

sacred prism
#

Also why are the areas letters in the save files

#

Yes

#

Is your next heart a lock

#

In the codex

cyan sundial
#

no it's not

sacred prism
#

Oh

cyan sundial
#

i read somewhere that if he appears in the house after you gift him on a run he won't accept another one, but this is the 2nd time?

sacred prism
#

2nd time?

cyan sundial
#

2nd time in a row i havent been able to gift him i mean

signal aspen
#

And if you give him nectar during that time you can't give him another one at the house

sacred prism
#

All the npcs in the save file have 01 after their name like NPC_Dusa_01 So maybe there is another dusa

cyan sundial
signal aspen
#

Did you give him nectar after your competition

sacred prism
#

But the Gods are called upgrade like AresUpgrade

cyan sundial
#

i didn't have the option to

#

dusa clones

signal aspen
#

This is a dumb question but do you have nectar

cyan sundial
#

no worries ahah, yeah i do

#

and ambrosia as well

signal aspen
#

So there is no locked heart on his codex page and you have nectar but you can't give it to him?

cyan sundial
#

yeah

#

i'll double check in a bit but that seems to be the problem, maybe itll work after another run?

signal aspen
#

Ye

cyan sundial
#

anyway thanks for the help wawa_owo

sacred prism
#

How do you get the bond with dusa

#

I have max hearts

signal aspen
#

Just talk to her more and more

#

After a while she will ask you to talk in a private area

sacred prism
#

To do private things

signal aspen
#

Then after that you get the bond

signal aspen
high island
# sacred prism How are they faster?

It's only 1 enemy + continuous adds spawn until you kill the miniboss, but you can often just burst the miniboss before any of the adds even spawn.

#

At most you deal with 1 or 2 of the adds.

#

Whereas in the other tunnels, you're dealing with large groups of enemies in three waves, so you have to wait between waves for new spawns on top of having to run all over the place to kill the enemies.

stiff musk
#

is there any way to control the hammers you get

#

or will it always be random

sinful reef
#

Random I believe

high island
#

@stiff musk some hammers are incompatible with certain other hammers, so if you take one of those on your first hammer, you can manipulate the available pool for your second hammer that way.

#

But that's the most you can do.

sacred prism
#

What is the timestamp in the save file for

hollow hawk
#

timestamp?

#

The last played timestamp you get when you load it?

#

Or the timer in the options menu

sacred prism
#

Can you not attach files here?

hollow hawk
#

Nope

#

You can upload an image to another server and link it here

high island
#

Or imgur etc.

hollow hawk
#

thats last played im pretty sure

#

Cgull might know more though

sacred prism
#

So is it necessary to change it when you change the save file?

hollow hawk
#

if you're digging into the code btw, id recommend joining the hades modding server. They have plenty of info and would be glad to help you out

hollow hawk
sacred prism
#

I am not digging into the code I am just cheating

hollow hawk
#

cheating for what

sacred prism
hollow hawk
#

oh

sacred prism
#

Actually I was trying to skip dialouges

hollow hawk
#

Uh there's a save editor for hades that'll allow you to get darkness.

#

not sure if you can do it in code yourself

#

there's also a maxed save file that you can download

sacred prism
#

I am only changing the darkness to test

#

Can you link the save editor

hollow hawk
#

In the resources tab

sacred prism
#

I don't see anything

#

I only see save managers

hollow hawk
#

not sure then. Again, asking in the hades modding server might get you more info

Can you give a link to it

how many rooms are in one floor?

hollow hawk

in tartarus, there are 12 rooms, with 13 being the end shop

#

Asphodel is 10 rooms, with chamber 23 being the end shop

#

Elysium is 10 rooms, with 35 being end shop

#

styx is variable since you can get anywhere from a 2-5 sack, which changes the amount of chambers you have to do

Billowing Strength says:

After using Call, you deal more damage for 15 seconds.

Does that 15 seconds start as the effect of your call ends, or does it start as soon as you trigger your call?

#

In other words, does its damage bonus also apply to the call itself?

rapid forum
#

it procs as soon as your call starts

#

as for the second one

#

I never test them

second one?

Saw it go for 19.90 just last week, and now its back to its og retail price, so I was just wondering if it was a random thing or does Supergiant have offers during specific events
