opal wharf
#

manic bobcat
#

😎

opal wharf
#

royal thistle
#

opal wharf
#

im forced to take a zeus boon

royal thistle
#

you can level up splitting..

bright comet
#

take it

#

its good

manic bobcat
#

so rip

royal thistle
#

water gun doe

#

water gun > zeus gun

bright comet
#

poseidon is insane with zeus

royal thistle
#

seeking fire +6 ammo water gun sea storm

#

not exactly insane

bright comet
#

absolutely insane

royal thistle
#

it just turns your build into a zeus build

#

👀

bright comet
#

if you get artemis poseidon and zeus in one run youve seen it all

royal thistle
#

fun fact: zeus special/attack has a cd but sea storm doesn't

#

use this knowledge well

manic bobcat
#

only the special

bright comet
#

add dionysis and its complete

manic bobcat
#

for zeus

royal thistle
#

attack also has a bit of an cd

#

very short but it exists

#

which gets in the way for lucifer and like only lucifer

manic bobcat
#

fair enough

opal wharf
#

i got a athena boon

#

but there's no divine dash option

torpid axle
#

lightning rod

#

HAHAHA

crude surge
#

Lightning Rod shadesmile

#

such a sleeper pick

signal aspen
#

nice

torpid axle
#

first time I ever got it

#

so good

outer yoke
#

Just had my first run with triple arrow thingy and explosive arrows

#

damn this was fun

torpid axle
#

explosive arrows is broken

#

absolutely

outer yoke
#

I didn't enjoy the bow much but that upgrade was nice

#

finally unlocked all weapons now, the final reload gun thingy seems to do low dmg on it

#

will have to do a run with it

torpid axle
#

I tried it

#

dmg seems really underwhelming

royal thistle
#

e

#

explosive arrows

#

are 100%

#

not broken

signal aspen
outer yoke
#

when will I unlock the ability to use all these diamonds and blood thingies

royal thistle
#

you just gotta use it right

#

and it'll treat you well

outer yoke
#

I've not been able to get any now, just get darkness from bosses

#

; . ;

#

if I use weapons I previously beat them with

signal aspen
#

and after that you will unlock weapon aspects

#

and weapon aspects need blood

outer yoke
#

o.O I just did them before quitting the game

#

Nice >: )

signal aspen
#

and for diamonds you can use them for work orders from the house contractor

outer yoke
#

Oh yeah I got a fishing rod

#

failed my first fishing attempt doe ; . ;

opal wharf
#

best item

#

🙏

royal thistle
#

oh yeah

#

I keep forgetting about fishing

signal aspen
#

i dont fish anymore

outer yoke
#

Where all can you use it

#

I used it in the last area I think

opal wharf
#

you can use it everywhere

signal aspen
#

you can fish in tartarus, asphodel, elysium, styx, surface, and chaos

outer yoke
#

o.O

torpid axle
#

moving onto hades once again

#

first time with sword

outer yoke
#

I thought I beat hades within 10 runs when I got him down for the first time

#

Soon realised that well he is my father and he can do tricks like me as well

#

; . ;

torpid axle
#

haha yeah...same

outer yoke
#

Ok now I was happy that I was facing meg

#

these other fate sisters are kinda cracked

opal wharf
#

yeah

#

at first they are hard

royal thistle
#

the hardest is the one who doesn't know how to speak

outer yoke
#

she scared me lol

#

my screen fading i was like ; . ;

royal thistle
#

anyways hades gets harder with that one trap heat thing

#

cause taking 100 damage from the pots

signal aspen
#

yeah

royal thistle
#

is scary

signal aspen
#

hs is really bad

royal thistle
#

e

signal aspen
#

its not worth the 1 heat

outer yoke
#

one trap heat ?

signal aspen
#

post hades stuff

royal thistle
#

yup

outer yoke
#

Oh

opal wharf
#

btw

royal thistle
#

you can add restrictions

#

or other challenging stuff

opal wharf
#

here you can get spoiled

royal thistle
#

^

signal aspen
#

yeah

outer yoke
#

Oh

opal wharf
#

if you didnt beat the Hades yet

signal aspen
#

spoilers are allowed in here

royal thistle
#

yup

opal wharf
opal wharf
outer yoke
#

I see

opal wharf
#

so yeah

royal thistle
#

anyways double approval process makes it feel like every good boon is a blessing from the lord

#

when you get a duo/legendary with double ap

#

😩

torpid axle
#

YES

#

4 health left

#

and this dumb ass is dead

royal thistle
#

are you by any chance using stubborn defiance?

torpid axle
#

yes

royal thistle
#

😔

torpid axle
#

let's hear it, what now?

#

git gud?

signal aspen
#

yeah you need to git gud

torpid axle
#

tbh

royal thistle
#

no

torpid axle
#

I thought it'd be better than DD, turns out not so much

royal thistle
#

just don't use stubborn defiance

#

it's like

#

a lot worse

torpid axle
#

problem is

#

using normal defiance with all 3 uses takes a huge chunk of my darkness

opal wharf
#

i

royal thistle
#

I mean

#

it's worth it

opal wharf
#

i died to the wave at the start of the 2nd phase

#

this is

#

insulting

signal aspen
#

git gud

royal thistle
#

u died to the WAVE

#

how..

opal wharf
#

i was

#

distracted by the upcoming nintendo direct

royal thistle
#

e

#

good reason

#

forgiven

opal wharf
#

yellow alert

#

pain

signal aspen
#

understandable, have a good day

opal wharf
#

thanks

#

:D

signal aspen
#

:D

royal thistle
#

talos yoyo build

#

is big haha

opal wharf
#

yes

signal aspen
#

talos fun

#

but talos bad

oak fox
#

Did Nyx just fired Dusa?

signal aspen
#

yes

oak fox
#

I just made the Night and Darkness achievement

#

Thats what I call an ungrateful situation, Nyx

royal thistle
#

talos isn't exactly bad

#

it just isn't broken

#

like the rest of the fists

signal aspen
#

except for gilgamesh

royal thistle
#

gilgamesh

#

got that OP DAMAGE

stoic flame
#

whenever i try to make a specefic build i just dont get boons

signal aspen
#

gilgamesh is actually bad

stoic flame
#

like any boons at all

oak fox
#

Really?

royal thistle
#

gilgamesh is risk vs reward

stoic flame
#

just the currencies and stuff

oak fox
#

I liked Gilgamesh ngl

crude surge
#

Gilgamesh is risk vs less reward than any other fists aspect

signal aspen
#

nice name potato

#

"there is escae"

stoic flame
#

lmao

signal aspen
#

a lot worse than pp man

royal thistle
crude surge
#

well how can anny name be better than pp man

#

uhh yes

royal thistle
#

gilgamesh got that juicy chunks man

#

and damage boosts

signal aspen
#

no

royal thistle
#

in return for taking more damage

signal aspen
#

its way too slow and clunky

oak fox
#

Also. Im one achievement away from 100%. I just have to max every keepsake

crude surge
#

gilgamesh is so slow and clunky

signal aspen
#

and the doom effect from maim takes way too long to activate

crude surge
signal aspen
#

and the damage buff from it is super low

royal thistle
#

it's not that slow..

crude surge
#

it is

#

you can do other fists build on gilga but its always worse

royal thistle
#

every fists has a specialty

#

while gilga is kinda a risky all rounder

crude surge
#

and gilgs is being bad

signal aspen
#

the attack is too slow so enemies can easily hit you

crude surge
#

it is not an all rounder

royal thistle
#

it 100% is

crude surge
#

the only thing it has going for it is the extra dashes

#

which is ruined by the terrible dash attack

signal aspen
crude surge
#

and doesn't have the stun lock combo that makes the fits so good

crude surge
#

BECAUSE IT WASN'T BAD ENOUGH?

royal thistle
#

talos focuses on: cast and attack
demeter: special
zag: all rounder but no risk
gilga: all rounder but risk

signal aspen
#

yeah

royal thistle
#

it just makes it riskier?

#

I guess?

crude surge
#

yes

#

you take more damage and get nothing out of it

#

all risk no reward

manic bobcat
#

what

royal thistle
#

gilga may be the worst fists

signal aspen
#

yeah

royal thistle
#

but it's still better then rama

signal aspen
#

no

royal thistle
#

and zag spear

stoic flame
#

whats a good build for excalibur

royal thistle
signal aspen
#

artemis attack, aphro dash, heartrend

stoic flame
#

alright

royal thistle
#

get your attack to hit like a truck

signal aspen
royal thistle
crude surge
#

rama great wdym

signal aspen
stoic flame
#

what are u taling about

#

rama is great

signal aspen
#

how is rama bad

manic bobcat
#

itt people calling things bad because they don't know how o use them

royal thistle
#

slow attack speed (like really slow)

signal aspen
#

just use your dash attack

royal thistle
#

you can't even mitigate the slowness in ANY WAY

stoic flame
#

just use attack like special and special like attack

royal thistle
#

I spam dash attack with bow it's just s l o w

crude surge
stoic flame
#

thats how i play it

signal aspen
#

but the damage from rama is insane

manic bobcat
royal thistle
#

oh yeah it's good with triple shot

manic bobcat
#

though i don't think i called anything bad

crude surge
#

you need to use shared suffering to make rama work well

royal thistle
#

but if you don't get triple shot

#

you're kinda

#

screwed

signal aspen
#

twin shot is the next best thing

manic bobcat
#

the worst thing i called is "mediocre" for rolling knuckle

signal aspen
#

twin shot/triple shot with point blank shot can get you insane damage

royal thistle
#

anyways charged volley is one of if not the worst hammer

#

since anything you'd want charge volley with can't get it

#

😩

signal aspen
#

nah theres worse

royal thistle
#

what is worse

signal aspen
#

like heavy knuckle on fists

royal thistle
#

everything has a use

signal aspen
#

world splitter on sword

#

flurry slash on sword

royal thistle
#

^ also has a use

signal aspen
#

whats it good for

royal thistle
#

all of them can do good

#

cursed slash hoarding slash :)

#

world splitter got the good base damage

signal aspen
#

sniper shot on bow

royal thistle
#

decent damage boost

#

but it's still better then charged volley

#

cause it CAN do something

#

to help your dps

signal aspen
#

i guess

signal aspen
#

wait wrong message

signal aspen
royal thistle
#

e

#

world splitter isn't good but it isn't horrible

signal aspen
#

dash nova isnt that good

royal thistle
#

yeah not really

#

should give a damage boost

#

but it was over balanced

signal aspen
#

chain skewer is, fine

brisk trail
#

everytime i unlock a new weapon im like "yeah this my fav"

royal thistle
#

the chad dash kick vs the virgin dash nova

signal aspen
#

flaring spin is also fine

royal thistle
#

maybe that's not true

brisk trail
#

how can the devs design all the weapons to be so fun?

signal aspen
#

dread flight is bad

#

seeking fire is bad

royal thistle
#

nah

signal aspen
#

eternal chamber isnt that good

royal thistle
#

seeking fire is decent

#

it at least gives damage

signal aspen
#

draining cutter isnt that good

#

rolling knuckle isnt that good

#

rush kick isnt good

#

quake cutter isnt good

#

colossus knuckle isnt good

royal thistle
#

e

signal aspen
#

and rending claws is bad because it is gilgamesh exclusive

royal thistle
#

quake cutter can be good

#

that is true..

#

quake cutter has really good scaling

manic bobcat
#

I mean anything out of the "meta" is sub optimal

royal thistle
#

you're just REALLY used to canceling it

signal aspen
#

its not as good as the others

manic bobcat
#

but this for fun just use whatever you want

royal thistle
#

it's got hella good damage

signal aspen
#

why use normal upper when you can use dash upper

manic bobcat
#

or on high enough heat not like AP2 gives you any choice anyway

royal thistle
#

rush kick is pog doe

#

prob my fav hammer

#

I just like blitzing across the map

signal aspen
#

its not that good

#

explosive upper is way better

royal thistle
#

it's not bad doe

signal aspen
#

i guess

royal thistle
#

since the base damage is 30 x2

#

and now it's 40x2

#

with homing SPEED

#

it's also faster too

signal aspen
#

explosive upper literally doubles your dash upper damage

royal thistle
#

true

#

explosive upper is always better

#

unless.. you are using special just to proc something

signal aspen
#

yeah

royal thistle
#

or you wanna have more fun

brisk trail
#

It only doubles your Dash-Upper damage if you've taken no other boons or upgrades.

unborn remnant
chrome wharf
#

Poseidon marry me pls

signal aspen
#

thats the first time ive actually seen the tip of his trident

#

from the game

hollow hawk
#

It seems less detailed than the rest of his body

#

Probably wasn't a design priority since it'd be out of view

manic bobcat
#

The is the lowest Hades has been

#

For like a whole $2.5

winter pollen
#

Im sad. tried searching for a hammer/axe mod (slow melee with chonky damage) and theres just nothing

void vigil
#

modding an entire new weapon into the game seems extremely difficuly, but the swords hidden aspect sounds like what youre looking for

brisk trail
#

god damn theseus is hard

#

so much health wtf

winter pollen
#

with how long the games been out and modding has been a thing (from what I can tell) Im just surprised theres no weapons modded in yet like at all

#

maybe ur right and its just way too hard

hollow hawk
#

There is a weapon mod

#

On nexusmods

#

of like nunchuks or something i think. But idk if it even functions lol i just saw the thumbnail of it a while ago

winter pollen
#

tried searching weapon, nunchuck, stick, aspect

#

all 0 results

lunar orchid
#

omg i have 6 casts with heroic artemis and the aspect of gimme my casts back sword

#

mrrrddrrr

signal aspen
#

only six?

#

pathetic

lunar orchid
#

i have epic exit wounds

#

with the sword that gives your casts back

#

its a beast combo

signal aspen
#

yeah

#

its epic

lunar orchid
#

honestly its a fast and more crazy combo than anything with the rail or anything else

#

185 cast x6 with artemis and high chance for crit and 180 exit wounds x6

#

thats wild

#

i took half of hades in one volly

signal aspen
#

nice

brittle lotus
#

Who gives exit wounds?

signal aspen
#

artemis

winter pollen
#

ok apparently the nexus doesnt let u search for words in the description? yikes

lunar orchid
#

yeah you want it epic and level it up as high as you can

#

its basically two hits in one

#

omg i just died

#

lol

#

he had like 10percent

#

i got distracted

signal aspen

crude surge

winter pollen
#

question.

signal aspen
#

no

winter pollen
#

ok

signal aspen
#

:D

winter pollen
#

lol

signal aspen
#

whats your question

winter pollen
#

how much stronger would hades be if he didnt use spear. the worst weapon in the videogame

signal aspen
#

i dont think he would be stronger if he used a different weapon

lunar orchid
#

the spear is great

#

esp achilles

winter pollen
#

idk man. I think if hades used rail or shield Id be done for for a while

lunar orchid
#

o if hades did

signal aspen
#

i like the image of hades holding a gun lol

winter pollen
#

lol exactly

signal aspen
#

well he trained with his spear for a while

winter pollen
#

or imagine he just pummels u with knuckles monkaS

signal aspen
#

what if he just walked up and slapped you with a sandal

winter pollen
#

I mean I get why he use spear for story related reasons. just saying I thought itd be funny if he used something that wasnt the literal worst

crude surge
#

He has 6 different variations squirtheh

winter pollen
#

if only

crude surge
#

What if he could use another wepon for ||last phase of EM4||

winter pollen
#

I mean I havent played the harder hades fight or w/e but variation is cool

lunar orchid
#

i just bought a switch

#

and got hades

#

its kinda fun starting over

winter pollen
#

ah yis. just got point blank, explosive shot and triple shot all while using the hidden aspect bow

#

so now it charges slow af

#

400 damage uncharged on hades and then got wombo combo'd

shadow kernel
#

What’s the best spear aspect?

brisk trail
#

all except zag are pretty good

modern flame
#

Dude I’m so excited that this game is coming to Xbox

#

I have it pre installed and everything

#

I can’t wait

manic bobcat
chrome wharf
#

SNOM

manic coral
#

the spear is great

glossy cosmos
glossy cosmos
shadow kernel
#

I could charge for half a second and cover the entire screen with an attack which did 200

glossy cosmos
#

That's how I got my first clear

shadow kernel
#

I’ve never had so much fun

cold tiger
#

poseidon hates me and zeus gave me a 3 volt battery

glossy cosmos
#

I was connecting with spins behind the pillars in the final fight

chrome wharf
#

the spin takes forever to charge for me

#

Maybe I need to spend more blood

shadow kernel
#

You need Daedalus hammer upgrades to make it charge quicker

cold tiger
#

btw

#

where do i sell the diamond that i got from the hydra?

glossy cosmos
chrome wharf
#

keep it to spend on story stuff and advanced upgrades

cold tiger
#

oh ok

chrome wharf
#

that sounds so rng though

cold tiger
#

and once i kill meg i can keep on using the weapon that i used to kill her right¿

chrome wharf
#

yeah you can't change weapon during a run

cold tiger
#

nono

glossy cosmos
cold tiger
#

cause skelly said that i need to use another weapon in order to get more elder blood

#

or smth like that

chrome wharf
#

oh yeah you can, but the reward gets changed to darkness

cold tiger
cold tiger
chrome wharf
#

yeah once per weapon

cold tiger
#

alright

#

and what do i use the blood for?

chrome wharf
#

To get blood with the same weapon, you need to fully clear a run first

glossy cosmos
#

You can unlock bounties for them later on after your first clear, I think

chrome wharf
#

Once you unlock all the weapons you can spend blood to make them stronger

glossy cosmos
#

The blood is to upgrade the weapons and their aspects

cold tiger
#

thank you both a lot

#

i started playing today and i had no clue what to do

chrome wharf
#

yeah once you finish a full clear, the extra reward system sort of explains itself

glossy cosmos
#

Welcome! Such a good game

cold tiger
#

oh ok

cold tiger
#

and ive played like 2 hours

#

and i can say its awesome

#

the characters,combat everything

chrome wharf
#

YMMV but you might want to stick with one weapon and learn it well before using another

glossy cosmos
#

And you made it past the Hydra, nice!

chrome wharf
#

Extra darkness is more useful than blood in early game

cold tiger
glossy cosmos
#

Yeah those mirror upgrades are great stat increases

cold tiger
#

ty

glossy cosmos
#

Reflect projectiles on dashes makes the game ez mode

#

It's usually my first boon every run

modern garnet
#

athena dash for if you hate projectiles, tidal dash for sheer damage and also getting enemies out of your face

#

at some point projectiles become a lot less of a problem

glossy cosmos
#

It's habit for me at this point, I'll admit. I've dashed into so many projectiles without Divine Dash lol

cold tiger
#

i just got sucked in the floor for 25 of my health

#

wha

#

who is this guy and why are his upgrades so bad

modern garnet
#

oh, did a green pot explode in front of you?

void vigil
#

thats chaos, and their boons are actually quite good, if you can live through the curses

modern garnet
#

oh i misunderstood hehe

#

chaos boons can seem underwhelming but they're unique and they have nice synergies

#

like, once you have an attack boon you can't really increase your attack damage significantly, except for with chaos

cold tiger
#

oooooh

#

alright

chrome wharf
#

I find chaos boon quite fun bc they make you change fighting style on the fly

modern garnet
#

for chaos boons, I first check to see if there's any boons that would do anything for my build at all, and of those I pick the one with the least bad downside

glossy cosmos
chrome wharf
#

*flashbacks to all the times I took chaos too late and fought furies with nerfed dash

#

though one time that was with Achilles Spear so rofl

glossy cosmos
modern garnet
#

ohh the dash curses are the WORST

opal wharf
#

@cold tiger also i saw you are new to the game i advise you stay in #h1-for-new-players because in the other channels you might get spoiled, in this channel there's a special anti spoil rule

glossy cosmos
opal wharf
#

yeah me too

#

thats why i tell it to new people

#

so they dont get spoiled into infinity

high apex
#

hi people, anyone know how i can find an enemy with the burner perk? got 2 pact of punishment points into it, but cant find one?

modern garnet
#

that seems like the one that everyone gets stuck on

#

burner only appears in asphodel iirc

high apex
#

yh thats all the information I have /:

modern garnet
#

keep going I guess, you'll find one eventually

high apex
#

I see

glossy cosmos
#

Ooh it that for the fated list? I never seemed to need to seek out specific enemies, weird

signal aspen
#

Yeah it's a prophecy that needs you to find enemies with a specific buff

high apex
#

yup thats the one

viscid swan

chrome wharf
#

What's the trigger to unlock the uh...room with bunch of shades doing paperwork

#

I'm halfway through the story on hellmode and still haven't gotten the prompt for it

queen kite
chrome wharf
#

Oh I mean the trigger to open up that option in the first place

torpid axle
#

finally got the 2nd trove upgrade

#

these gems took a while

brisk trail
#

Guys

#

Is the game better than launch

#

?

manic bobcat
#

that's a loaded question

#

but what problem did you have at launch?

stoic flame
#

i literally got the worst tunnel rng ever

#

i was in the second last tunnel with no bag and then tiny vermin decides to show up when im at 30hp

crude surge
#

#

Guys do you think that I should get hades because it looks really fun

stoic flame
#

it is

#

and there is infinite gameplay

hearty bramble
#

i just noticed hades store page on steam still has screenshots from pre-launch

#

like an outdated patroclus 3d model / chaos boon symbol

hearty bramble
grim raptor
#

Thank you

bleak bobcat
#

just beat this game for the 10th time

#

idk how it doesn’t get repetitive lol

manic bobcat
#

that's the charm of roguelites

#

i love games that make replayability its core identity

cinder blaze
#

Is there any way to make Orpheus sing that song called Good Riddance? the song that Eurydice sings, and the song "Lament of Orpheus"?

#

idk if I should mark it with spoiler

#

please let me know

pulsar ridge
#

I believe he just randomly starts singing

#

and I don't think you can force it

cinder blaze
#

oh :/ ig i'll just repeat it on YT

#

thanks!

chrome wharf
#

For good riddance you might need to get the score from Eurydice which may or may not involve giving her (or both of them) enough nectar, but you definitely need to talk with them a decent amount

#

I have a rule that whenever Orpheus sings good riddance I have to stay and harmonize with him for the entire song :)

cinder blaze
#

I love seeing Orpheus singing, is like another person

chrome wharf
#

Can confirm music helps the mood

#

those 2 songs are half the reason why I bought this game

cinder blaze
#

also I figured out that the VA of Zagreus is the one singing Good Riddance

cinder blaze
#

He being happy it's just

#

amazing

chrome wharf
#

In my regular file I maxed him and Eurydice before anyone else lol

cinder blaze
#

lmao I'll do that rn

opal wharf
#

when i unlock all the mirror

#

what do i use the keys for

cerulean ferry
#

You can trade them at the broker for nectar

opal wharf
#

ooooo nice

outer yoke
#

Alrighty

#

I have 3 revives, 213 hp and a good build

#

time to clear the game for the first time >: )

cerulean ferry
#

Good luck!!

outer yoke
#

Finally

#

Defeated him

#

Let's goooooo

pulsar ridge
#

dad is dead 🥳

#

now you can play with heat

outer yoke
#

I see

#

Is there any more depth to the ending the more times I clear it ?

pulsar ridge
#

yes

#

10th victory you finish the main story

outer yoke
#

Ooo

pulsar ridge
#

After that, winning more times doesn't progress the story whatsoever I don't think

outer yoke
#

.< Is there any ending cutscene or epilogue

pulsar ridge
#

But you've still got the epilogue and side stuff to do

outer yoke
#

Oh nice

#

I managed to get a doom boon on my basic attack to level 4 then got the attack bounce upgrade from hammer boy

#

Carried me throughout

#

I feel like if I attack my fellow shopkeeper too many times, he might retaliate shadefear

pulsar ridge
#

You're fine, just don't "borrow" from him bouldy

outer yoke
#

Is it possible to defeat Theseus before the Minotaur, has anyone done it thanthink

signal aspen
#

ive done it many times

#

mainly during speedruns

#

because i just try to kill them as fast as possible

#

and theseus has less health

#

so sometimes he will die first

opal wharf
#

dusa.

#

that is all

unborn remnant
signal aspen
opal wharf
#

glad you understood

wraith ginkgo
#

signal aspen
#

#

uh

#

yes

opal wharf
#

#

to make the game prettier

#

i always forget

wraith ginkgo
opal wharf
#

oh

#

the smart guy

#

who makes everything

signal aspen
#

im pretty sure thats a hades thing

#

because hes not a time traveler

opal wharf
#

yeah

signal aspen
#

just like how zag has a gun

opal wharf
#

in mythology he's just a guy who loves doing maze

wraith ginkgo
#

he knows how to make guns if he upgraded the chariot

#

since*

#

ik he's not a timetraveler in actual mythology but in the game

opal wharf
#

maybe

#

he did work on guns

#

and he knows missile

signal aspen
#

tbh i didnt even know that daedalus made the chariot

opal wharf
#

the chariot?

signal aspen
#

the chariot in em3

opal wharf
#

what

#

em3 ?

signal aspen
#

heat

wraith ginkgo
signal aspen
#

oh cool

opal wharf
#

i mean its basically a reflavoured "shh its magic it makes sense"

wraith ginkgo
#

yea

opal wharf
#

just slap it on to everything

signal aspen
#

its just the pact of punishment

opal wharf
#

there's a chariot in greek mytho

#

the chariot of the sun

wraith ginkgo
#

that apollo/helios rides

opal wharf
#

yes

#

i like the idea of the sun being a dude that just rolls in the sky

wraith ginkgo
#

same, an immortal dude who can easily create music

#

(apollo)

opal wharf
#

apollo was

#

the god of many many things

#

like

#

phew

wraith ginkgo
#

medicine, music, prophecy, sun

#

archery

#

I think that's all of them

opal wharf
#

yeah

#

its funny how its not artemis the goddess of archery but her brother

wraith ginkgo
#

well both of is the god/goddess of archery

#

they share the role

opal wharf
#

oh yeah

#

i forgot

#

i thought artemis was only the one of the hunt

brisk trail
#

NO

#

i hate thesues

#

i came so close ;-;

#

why does he have so much health

signal aspen
#

F

brisk trail
#

qq
is 200 gemstones for ancient blood a good deal

#

it's limited time

opal wharf
#

yeah

signal aspen
#

you should take it if you have a lot of gem stones

opal wharf
#

if you have nothing to do with your gem stones

signal aspen
#

more blood is always good

brisk trail
#

i currently have... 14.

opal wharf
#

blood for the blood god

brisk trail
#

gemstones that is, not blood

#

opal wharf
#

#

signal aspen
#

opal wharf
#

win win win win

signal aspen
#

yeah

#

just win

#

git gud

brisk trail
#

i knew someone would say that eventually

opal wharf
#

the objective of the game is to win

brisk trail
#

what is the canonical motivation for zag to keep doing the escape over and over

#

just cuz he feels like it?

signal aspen
#

i guess

#

later in the game he finds out that ||nyx isnt his mom so he tries to get to the surface to find his real mom||

#

tbh i forgot most of the story

brisk trail
#

i played the game for 10 hours straight yesterday

signal aspen
#

nice

#

good for your health

opal wharf
#

you can spoil at will

signal aspen
#

well i dont know how far they are in the game

#

and i dont want to spoil the game for them

opal wharf
#

but seriously

#

yes

#

i get what you mean

#

just saying being here and expecting to not get spoiled is a bet

outer yoke
#

also dad annoying

brisk trail
#

so he does it over and over just to piss off his dad

#

i like

opal wharf
#

and to see his mom

#

he likes his momma

brisk trail
#

god i love the entire cast of this game

manic bobcat
signal aspen
#

we already explained it

brisk trail
#

yeah, but what about post game?

manic bobcat
#

Oh ok

manic bobcat
brisk trail
#

for once, i'd rather not have it spoiled

#

the game is that dope

opal wharf
manic bobcat
#

Yeah

#

The game does a good job tying up lose ends.

brisk trail
#

i can't believe i got this for 7 euro

#

best bang for your buck i've ever experienced

manic bobcat
#

Did you get it on Epic?

brisk trail
#

yessir

manic bobcat
#

Nice

#

That's the cheapest I have seen Hades on sale, ever

outer yoke
#

I beat the game for the first time today

#

total 12 runs so far into the game, felt I had it much easier than most people

opal wharf
#

nice

#

now make the game harder

signal aspen
#

nice

opal wharf
#

i dare you

signal aspen
#

now make the game harder

dusky wedge
#

Definitely

outer yoke
#

Alrighty

#

Still need to beat the game more times to get the ending I see

signal aspen
#

yeah

dusky wedge
#

I guess most noobs here like me is doing it with God Mode even

onyx skiff
opal wharf
outer yoke
#

Lol the first run I did with the gun weapon I managed to beat the game

opal wharf
#

nice

outer yoke
#

praise the lord for getting the auto-attack doom boon and the RNG of it getting buffed everytime

dusky wedge
#

Gun is strong, probably the strongest so far for most people. Of course it depends on play style and “every weapon can be good”, but gun is really good to be fair

outer yoke
#

I thought it would be quite weak, considering the damage numbers on the basic attack

#

and the reload mechanic

opal wharf
#

somehow i won 2 runs with the gun even tho i hate it

#

i hate using the gun but i always do good with it

outer yoke
#

I've enjoyed the spear and fists, though I'm not very good with them

#

Me happy with fists
Enters room with witch coven who unleash 5 million orbs at me
pain

opal wharf
#

coven?

#

oh

#

yeah

#

get divine dash

signal aspen
#

you dont need divine dash

opal wharf
#

with fist its a must have

signal aspen
#

just git gud

outer yoke
#

Yeah, one of the reasons I stopped playing with shield

#

too much handicap

opal wharf
#

?

#

how so

outer yoke
#

Need to become good at dodging

signal aspen
#

what

#

what does that have to do with using the shield

outer yoke
#

Idk I could just hold bull rush and all attacks will just deflect

dusky wedge
#

The gist with every melee weapon, you have to get close to hit

outer yoke
#

No need to move

opal wharf
outer yoke
#

Yeah

opal wharf
#

damn

outer yoke
#

I do get stuck with those small wagon thingies sometimes

#

keep chasing me around

dusky wedge
#

It’s what on the mind of less experienced players

opal wharf
#

little wagon crash on the walls if you dash enough

dusky wedge
#

Of course, the right way to play with shield is bull rush your way to winning 😝

signal aspen
#

just dash through something

outer yoke
#

Yeah I realised I can dash straight through walls

opal wharf
#

you

signal aspen
#

you

opal wharf
#

thats a good think to know

outer yoke
#

I figured it out after my first encounter with theseus

opal wharf
#

ah

#

yes

outer yoke
#

with the minotaur chasing me

opal wharf
#

yesyes

#

you can dash in the bull

#

if you have 2 dash

#

you can keep going

#

cant hit you

signal aspen
#

just kill him

opal wharf
#

tru

robust scaffold
#

haha

opal wharf
#

robust scaffold
#

i had smouldering air and aphro call

#

asterius defeated theseus for me

opal wharf
#

ooo

signal aspen
#

nice

opal wharf
#

nice

#

he deserves it

#

i really like asterius

robust scaffold
#

i like both of them

opal wharf
#

great guy

robust scaffold
#

theseus is cool

signal aspen
#

bull man is cool

outer yoke
#

Is there a different boss in arena 3 other than the 2

signal aspen
#

theseus is dumb

signal aspen
outer yoke
#

cuz there are different variants of the first 2 bosses

#

I see

signal aspen
#

well technically there are 3

manic bobcat
#

Well technically if you count variations of Theseus calls

signal aspen
#

and there is also the em3 versions

manic bobcat
#

You have as many variations as there are gods

#

Though that's being generous in term of counting

outer yoke
#

lol

opal wharf
manic bobcat
#

Yeah I'm being half facetious

outer yoke
#

Be me
Gifts charon nectar 4-5 times

green maple
#

opal wharf
#

signal aspen
#

no to play hades

green maple
#

signal aspen
#

hades is a fun game

green maple
#

playing hades is

#

worth a failed test

opal wharf
signal aspen
#

no its fun

opal wharf
#

dont tempt me

#

what if

#

you there was a weapon aspect

#

for every NPC

signal aspen
#

that would be cool

#

what would aspect of bouldy be like?

opal wharf
#

take less damage

#

or

#

its a shield aspect

#

and when you do the bul charge

#

you cant get hit at all

#

you become a boulder

signal aspen
#

thats like

#

normal bull rush

opal wharf
#

yeah but

#

its on all sides

signal aspen
#

thats like

opal wharf
#

not just the front

signal aspen
#

normal bull rush

#

i dont think you can get hit while using your bullrush

opal wharf
#

yes

#

if the attack doesnt come from the front

#

you get hit

signal aspen
#

really?

#

i never noticed that

opal wharf
#

just be dumb like me

signal aspen
#

opal wharf

its so rude to say to anyone that you are glad they died

signal aspen
#

but its hypnos

#

hes allowed to say anything he wants

opal wharf
#

its funny cause its like that in game too

#

he is inneficient

#

and sleeps all the time

#

but for some reason

#

Hades lets him be there

signal aspen
#

because hypnos is cool

opal wharf
#

do you think hypnos could beat zag

signal aspen
#

easily

opal wharf
#

do you think

#

hypnos could beat Hades

signal aspen
#

easily

brisk trail
#

he just puts everything to sleep 2 op

dusky wedge
#

Do you think Hypnos could beat Meg?

signal aspen
#
