i just got obliterated by the bull and the other guy

#

i hardly got the bull to half when i died

#

any tips?

crude surge Jun 30, 2021, 2:38 AM

#

focus the bull first

#

hes pretty heavily telegraphed so if you learn the tells you should be able to dodge most of their moves

#

Try to not get Theseus under half before you take the bull down. You wont want both of them around when Theseus is at half

#

if theres a pink reticle on you that means Theseus is about to throw the spear

#

you can hide behind the pillars for the spear and when asterius charges make him ram into the wall or a pillar

modern garnet Jun 30, 2021, 2:41 AM

#

learn your favorite cue for the spear throw and you'll feel it within your soul

#

you'll know he's throwing the spear before he does

wet dawn Jun 30, 2021, 2:41 AM

#

Well, you have the pink reticle, and then when it becomes a deeper pink he's like a second away from throwing

#

Samething with the longbow guys in elysium

modern garnet Jun 30, 2021, 2:42 AM

#

i go for the audio cue personally

#

dodge spear throw with eyes closed 😎

Asterius attacks like long grunt - swing - swing

#

So you attack while he's charging up, get out when he swings, then get back in afterwards

The dashes are really short compared to normal ones, the dash strike deals like no damage so the two bonuses of the aspect clash (you are given more dashes, but your dash strike sucks)

Not to mention that the game devs have mentioned that they tweaked the game's genre so it could be accessible. Honestly, I think it might be one of the many reasons why it got so much acclaim: it appeals to a wide skillset of gamers

#

I myself am a very casual gamer who actually doesn't like games focused heavily on achievements. What drew me to Hades specifically was its story and how they told it (in fact, I plan on taking a class in my uni that talks about video games narratives as a form of literature, AND I have a writing mentor who specializes in writing for games and interactive fiction). I grew to love the achievement aspect later, and a lot of it was due to the fact the achievements were accessible for me.

#

And of course, "easy" is a subjective term, and arguably, so are achievements. What may be an achievement to one person may not be to another. To me, the beauty of Hades is that it appeals to so many people because it is welcoming of all kinds of gamers.

on the topic of unlocking aspects, i talked to asterius with the fists and he said something about height bare handed, does that count towards unlocking gilgamesh?

does it have italic text?

crisp fractal Jun 30, 2021, 7:51 PM

no

warm charm Jun 30, 2021, 7:51 PM

because the italic text means that zagreus would have to say it to the weapon

Nah, that's Dash-Strike into the first Attack of the normal Attack combo. You can't do two Dash-Strikes in one dash.

You can actually press Dash and Attack at the same time for a Dash-Strike.

Depends on how you think about it, isn't Double Edge just 2 dash strikes in one dash?

high island Jun 30, 2021, 8:18 PM

No. It's one Dash-Strike that hits twice.

manic bobcat Jun 30, 2021, 8:19 PM

sounds like tomato tomato to me xD

high island Jun 30, 2021, 8:19 PM

Two Dash-Strikes would mean there are two separate hitboxes for each individual strike, but it's just one hitbox that hits twice when it makes contact.

If you wanna unlock all the aspects then Titan Blood

If you wanna get better relationships, Ambrosia

stoic flame which move are you struggling with

Every move, let's be honest here

stoic flame Jul 1, 2021, 3:03 AM

#

sad

#

in the first phase the main moves are the thrust and the spin

#

the thrust is pretty straight forward

#

just dash our of the way

#

the spin might be a little hard to dodge but there is a trick

#

you need to dash behind him because when he spins he goes forward

#

hyper sprint is a good boon to help with dodging the spin

#

the slow wave is probably the easiest to avoid

#

when its coming to you just dash into it

#

in the second phase he gets this combo of swing-swing-spin

#

again the trick is just to stay behind him

#

then he does 2 types of laser attacks

high island Master Chaos's pronouns are they/them.

ah ok

high island Jul 1, 2021, 11:45 AM

#

Chaos boons can be pretty amazing, especially since you can stack them.

#

Like a Nemesis build with Deadly Strike, Hunter Dash, and 3x ~75% Dash-Strike damage from Master Chaos.

#

Things like that.

#

Cast builds really want +1 ammo or bonus Cast damage from Master Chaos.

#

Although in the case of +1 ammo, that is unaffected by rarity. It's +1 at common and still +1 at epic.

what do you guys think about the gun?

Exagryph leads speedrun leaderboards and is up there with the best on high heat leaderboards, so... I dunno about weak.

#

It's not RNG. It's very possible to do 16 Heat TD3 with time to spare 100% of the time.

#

Good RNG can make that easier, but you can still try to look at what you can do differently to speed things up.

if there is a weak effect when doom expires, doom reapplies

Yes, but you don't have to. Doom will much more reliably kill off enemies, and you'll do more Doom damage to bosses while you're evading stuff.

like every consecutive hit it stacks for half the last hit damage

craggy barn Jul 1, 2021, 12:37 PM

Passion Dash pom scaling is so good, too. It gets close to Tidal Dash damage quickly, just that it lacks knockback for wall-slam damage and the t2 boons he has. But early in the run, it's actually very comparable.

Dash-Strikes get the same effect from Dash boons around Zagreus that empty dashes get, and the hitbox at the tip of your sword or whatever gets all the effects from your Attack boon.

not fists

high island Jul 1, 2021, 9:00 PM

We were just earlier talking in #h1-builds-and-combat about how the hidden fists are very clearly the worst aspect.

#

Perfectly viable, but also the worst.

#

But they can still be a lot of fun to play if you're not pushing for high heat or speedruns.

karmic hare Jul 1, 2021, 9:01 PM

but i was saying not fist because it plays too different to other fists and if you like fists its not too similar almost a different weapon entirely

I do believe the power of developers is so strong that even proximity to their dots in messages gives people superior grammar, and often times more developed prose.
