and every 6 hours

raw herald
#

I got a PB the same day as my first dose

floral ledge
#

cheers

wise oasis
#

that second dose hit hard

raw herald
#

With a dead arm

wise oasis
#

hope it goes ok

wise oasis
chrome wharf
#

I'm the opposite, can only stand Zeus shield because I want to regular attack whenever I want

raw herald
#

That's a huge bonus

chrome wharf
#

and not wait for my shield to complete its room tour

raw herald
#

I had playing chaos shield because you just kinda stand there while the special bounces about

#

Especially in the EM1 fight

wise oasis
#

Chaos shield just feels like a bad zag shield to me

undone stag
#

whats the difference between shadow presence and fiery presence

#

and which one is better

wise oasis
#

Shadow gives you backstab, fiery gives you more damage on first hit

raw herald
#

Fiery is preferred for speedruns, it's not that big of a deal though

wise oasis
#

Most of the time I go with shadow unless I wanna go fast or something

raw herald
#

Both are just attack and special damage, however fiery presence also applies to your dash and cast(?) In chamber 1

undone stag
#

btw death defiance or stubborn defiance?

#

stubborn seems more op

raw herald
#

Death defiance

undone stag
#

why death?

#

stubborn is once PER ROOM

#

thats more than death

raw herald
#

Bosses are usually more dangerous

twin thistle
#

if youre dying often then youre gunna have trouble in boss fights

chrome wharf
#

Depends on how often you die

wise oasis
#

You're more likely to die to a boss, and you can die multiple times per boss with death defiance

undone stag
#

oh

#

i die to non bosses more than bosses

raw herald
#

In that case take stubborn

#

They are both viable, just for different things

chrome wharf
#

if you can clear bosses handily with no/1 death then stubborn is better

undone stag
#

man meg is the hottest character in game

plucky latch
undone stag
plucky latch
#

Dude. Priorities. Persephone is the hottest

wise oasis
plucky latch
undone stag
#

which is the best weapon early game

#

like i just made it to the 3rd floor

thorn marsh
wise oasis
#

Really depends on playstyle

thorn marsh
#

shield is good because u can block attacks though

undone stag
#

i like the shield

#

the throw is fun

#

deflect dash is so good

wise oasis
#

Of zag aspects Id say sword and shield are best but for your first clear it doesnt matter much

#

and yeah divine dash is one of the best

undone stag
#

whats the hole in the ground?

#

it says descend -21 Heart

plucky latch
#

Press it

wise oasis
#

You should head down and see

undone stag
#

i sacrificed a centaur heart, better be good

plucky latch
#

That's not how that works

undone stag
#

WTF IS THIS GOD

wise oasis
#

Chaos best them

#

Chaos helps you because its funny and asks you to use their keepsake against hades because again its funny

covert zenith
#

Chaos is great for setting up builds

plucky latch
#

Yeah I think I maxed out my friendship with Chaos

wise oasis
#

Especially cast ones

covert zenith
#

Yea did one once

plucky latch
#

Chaos and Persephone and Hades

#

Chaos because best character
Persephone because MILF
And Hades because I liked pissing him off

thick lark
#

Chaos is so cool

native raven
#

chaos is such a chad

thick lark
#

honestly their beggining negatives aren't even that hard like the one where enemies explode is just more fun than anything when u special enemies with the gloves just one shotting them.

#

Ain't bad for dome extra cash or damage

plucky latch
#

Yeah. It's a small price to pay for a few rooms. Unless you're at high heat

#

Then the negatives start getting annoying

wise oasis
#

Some of them are bad, like slippery on cast builds or attack on most builds

#

and its a high price on LC4

signal aspen
#

I still take chaos gates at high heat

#

It helps with td3

wise oasis
#

Im never sure if I want to with lc4, otherwise I do

signal aspen
#

And the damage doesn't matter if you don't get hit by anything elsedusa

wise oasis
#

sounds like effort, Im gonna go run into some spikes

plucky latch
#

Yeah. Until it hurts you for attacking and you have to use your special and cast for like 3-4 rooms

meager ridge
#

this is perfect

#

i died BEFORE the hades fight

#

from a damn sartyr or whatever those living abortions are called

#

i swear to god i hate this game

#

and i have to kill hades TEN TIMES to finish the campaign

undone stag
#

meg can go to hell

#

i got 300 nyx thingies from her

meager ridge
#

this is tedious

#

i work all the way back up to the point where i died through 20 minutes, to fall exactly where i last died

#

if there was a seven deadly sins for gaming, roguelites/roguelikes would be all seven

void vigil
#

Again, have you considered god mode?

#

Or perhaps this game is just not for you if you get so frustrated playing it

#

That’s okay too

thorn marsh
#

same for hades heroes and lernie

brisk trail
#

really, use god mode

meager ridge
#

this game is like building a lego set, but if you don't place the stickers correctly somebody comes in to demolish and crap on it

#

this game is trial and error in its most tedious form

mint coral
#

thats a lot of negativity jc

modern garnet
#

Losing progress is difficult to deal with, especially if you don't have experience with roguelikes

meager ridge
#

i have some experience with these sins of games

#

i played risk of rain and risk of rain 2

tender oyster
#

I dont understand like if you dont like the game theres no gun to your head telling you to continue playing

meager ridge
#

i spent 25 pounds on this game, i might as well complete it

tender oyster
#

its tough yeah but after beating hades the first time the game gets easier because you get experience with how the game plays

meager ridge
#

do you get anything else from killing hades?? anything more?????

tender oyster
#

more titan blood so you can upgrade aspects

meager ridge
#

titan blood.

#

TITAN BLOOD??????

#

YOU GO THROUGH HELL ITSELF AND KILL THE GOD OF THE DEAD JUST TO GET THE SAME THING YOU CAN GET FROM KILLING THE FIRST BOSS

modern garnet
#

You also unlock the heat system which allows you to get more boss rewards

tender oyster
#

^

#

dude is heated like...

#

I find the game actually incredibly enjoyable

modern garnet
#

Look dont force yourself through an experience that's making you miserable. If you take a break you might be able to approach the game later and have more fun, but if you dont you're just gonna get angrier

brisk trail
#

okay i know how you feel, how incredibly frustrating it can be. turn. on. god mode.

#

it makes it so much more fun

tender oyster
celest shell
#

Yeah it sucks to play a game that makes you angry

meager ridge
#

screw this defecation in game form, i'm taking a break

brisk trail

wow

remote void
humble heath
#

Does anyone know how exactly should I complete Athena's favor? Wiki is a bit vague

#

It mentioned "Athena's remark" but I don't really know what are those

wise oasis
#

Its just rng dialogue

#

keep talking to athena you'll get it eventually

chrome wharf
#

clear a run, then talk to Athena. Might have to force her as the first god?

wise oasis
#

I think you need an athena boon when you win for it to proc

humble heath
#

Oh I see, thank you guys

wise oasis
#

Good luck dusa

Yeah. All my homies hate Medusa

well i luke dusa

#

her vc was done really well

#

hypno too

plucky latch
#

Was there a vc that wasnt done well?

brisk trail
#

bouldy

modern garnet
#

Haha

weary jackal
#

Silence heretic
Bouldy has the best voice actress

plucky latch
#

I didnt like Zag's vc, but it stopped bothering me after a while

weary jackal
#

I really want to know how many rocks were involved in making Bouldy’s rumble

#

I still find it weird how Zag and Skelly both have Darren Korb as their voice actors
And then Orpheus’s singing voice too
Now I want In The Blood with Skelly’s voice

silent lagoon
#

I need a video called: “10 hours of the chef cutting Onions in Hades” worth my time

vale smelt
#

Any news or so on getting more content?

weary jackal
#

Hades ASMR, the lounge ambience with the chef cutting onions and Dusa cleaning

plucky latch
#

Nopers

vale smelt
#

i finished it so fast 😦

weary jackal
#

You mean a run?

azure osprey
vale smelt
#

dead cells and hollow knight prepared me too good

#

😄

weary jackal
weary jackal
azure osprey
#

Also hades got nothing on this 25%

plucky latch
#

The game isnt long. I think I finished it in about 16 hours

vale smelt
#

complete finish

plucky latch
#

But there's still stuff that can be done

vale smelt
#

nah i unlocked everything

weary jackal
#

Did you get the family dinner and all that?

vale smelt
#

all achievements and stuff

#

sure

plucky latch
#

How many hours are you clocked at

vale smelt
#

mom

#

120

plucky latch
#

And you want more?

vale smelt
#

sure

#

xD

#

dlc

#

or so

weary jackal
#

120 hours is like
One full persona 5 royal

vale smelt
#

i wanna go to olymp

hearty sierra
#

Suggestions: hell mode or special runs

thorn marsh
#

is speedrun an option?

vale smelt
#

nah im not into speedrunning 😄

hearty sierra
#

Yes, it is

vale smelt
#

or randomizing

plucky latch
#

Dude wants content

hearty sierra
#

Maxed all weapons?

vale smelt
#

i want content

#

^^

plucky latch
#

There's nothing left bro

vale smelt
#

yeah

thorn marsh
#

cause i totally didnt go straight into speedrunning after credits and didnt bother to trigger the epilogue bouldy

vale smelt
#

that's it

hearty sierra
#

I'd say modding is your only option, then

plucky latch
#

You spent 120 hours in it. You're done

vale smelt
#

yeah

#

that's alright

#

i spent 250 on ETG

#

xD

#

best game ever imo

weary jackal
#

Enter the Gungeon has a lot more build variety but a lot less story

modern garnet
#

The 20 person game studio can only make so much game at this quality

vale smelt
#

yeah it's more roguelike

modern garnet
#

Hades is way longer than the previous SGG games

vale smelt
#

i never finished bastion or transistor

#

kinda lost interest aftera while

weary jackal
#

“Supergiant games games”
This is funny to me

hearty sierra
#

For what it costs, Hades is a steal

vale smelt
#

hades though - i bought it instantly when it came out pre release

#

and spent 8 hours

#

thinking i just was playing some runs

#

😄

#

dope game

plucky latch
#

Supergiant Games games*

vale smelt
#

immersion

#

hey

weary jackal
#

Capitalisation is for nerds

plucky latch
vale smelt
#

yeah i dont do that when chatting

#

lel

hearty sierra
#

But yeah, if you're into modding just DM me and I'll shoot you the link to the server

vale smelt
#

im on it but thx brotendo

#

have a good one all

plucky latch
#

LOL

vale smelt
#

and thx for infos

plucky latch

Brotendo

weary jackal
#

Can you imagine a Thanatos boss fight

plucky latch
#

I can imagine it yes

weary jackal
#

Tell me, Neo, what do you see

plucky latch
#

Boringness with a monotone voice mocking me

weary jackal
#

He’s not monotone

plucky latch
#

Sure he's not

hearty sierra
#

Charon fight but harder

#

Giant ass circle aoe, you're marked for death in 30 secs

weary jackal
#

Multiplayer Hades, make Than a raid boss

mint coral
#

thanatos but he is using that sprite of him facing towards you

hearty sierra
#

Than can't bring himself to hurt you so he summons 20 flame wheels with invul to take you out

weary jackal
#

Nooo

#

A fate worse than death
Flame wheels

mint coral
#

im pretty sure even an invulnerable flame wheel kills itself the moment they collide with anything

hearty sierra
#

And you have to bring him to 0 in 30s

hearty sierra
plucky latch
#

Endless arena

#

Hype

weary jackal
#

Do you think Than gets upset when Zagreus uses death defiance?

mint coral
hearty sierra
#

He doesn't want zag to die as a rule of thumb so I'd think not

weary jackal
#

Ok so does than gets upset at enemies when he does

plucky latch
#

Huh

weary jackal
#

Than just watching through Mort as Zag gets killed by Theseus
“Put me in coach, I can take him!”

hearty sierra
#

Than doesn't really get upset when you defy death, it's just annoying for him (mythology-wise)

hearty sierra
weary jackal
glossy cosmos
plucky latch
#

Chariot Theseus is easiest Theseus

#

Dude doesnt do anything

weary jackal
#

Armoured Asterius is so annoying tho

hearty sierra
#

Too bad this game costs so much to animate and produce new content for

#

I'd love DLCs

plucky latch
#

Yeah. Asterius slam

weary jackal
#

He’s got so much health

plucky latch
#

I never really noticed the bonus health thresholds

hearty sierra
#

Kite, kite, kite

#

And then beo into his face

weary jackal
#

On my EM4 run I was running Forced overtime and Aspect of Chiron

hearty sierra
#

Works like a charm

mint coral
#

nothing like being in melee distance with asterius and you hear the sfx for the bayblade move

weary jackal
#

Asterius was on me like a badger

hearty sierra
plucky latch
#

Yeah. We need EM5 where Dad summons a boss to fight with him every phase

mint coral
#

em5 but it affects tiny vermin

weary jackal
plucky latch
#

Tiny Vermin throws you to back to your house

hearty sierra
#

Iirc the bosses are tied to their soecial rooms

plucky latch
#

@weary jackal Yes. All Bosses

hearty sierra
#

So I don't think it's possible with modding but who knows

modern garnet
#

Tiny vermin in every single room

mint coral
#

"oops, all tiny vermin"

weary jackal
#

Hades but he summons 30 tiny vermin
The pots contain 10 tiny vermin each

hearty sierra
short glen
#

It's probably possible to set up several of the bosses in a different room. Really only tis and lernie seem problematic

hearty sierra
plucky latch
#

Lernie would just look glitchy. Tis can just put you on a random floor

azure osprey
#

Omg guys

#

They put morgana in hades

weary jackal
hearty sierra
#

Who?

weary jackal
plucky latch
#

Sounds like a hot babe

azure osprey
plucky latch
#

Oh what

weary jackal
#

Cat that turns into a car into a person into a helicopter

azure osprey
plucky latch
#

Sounds almost as obnoxious as Medusa

azure osprey
#

It was a fake reality

weary jackal
azure osprey
#

Until

azure osprey
weary jackal
#

Go to sleep

#

x1000

short glen
#

Dusa is adorable

hearty sierra
#

Why sleep when HADES

azure osprey
#

Does zag call hades daddy

plucky latch
#

Yeah when they start making some cool mods, I'll play again

hearty sierra
weary jackal
plucky latch
#

Zag says Daddy in the 165th run

azure osprey
#

Can people still calling thanos than

hearty sierra
#

It's hilarious when you unlock a keepsake later on

azure osprey
#

Wait

#

His name isn’t thanos

#

Thantoes

weary jackal
#

Thanatos

azure osprey
#

Yes

thorn marsh
#

we abbreviate it to than

plucky latch
#

Thanos never has what it takes to beat me

weary jackal
#

Zag calls him than
Than calls him zag

azure osprey
plucky latch
#

Always falls short in the minigame. Silly man

azure osprey
#

So it’s confusing sometimes

weary jackal
plucky latch
#

I dint think I've bothered to listen during his encounters

#

But best instrumental for me is EM4

weary jackal
#

The thunder effects in Last Words are squirtdevious

hearty sierra
#

It's soothing

plucky latch
#

I wont be playing again for a while. I'll probably just Google

weary jackal
#

Everyone accepts the best vocal track is In the Blood

hearty sierra
#

Yeah, that too

weary jackal
#

And if you don’t
You’re no-one
And I have confirmation bias

hearty sierra
#

In the blood??? There's three different versions of Good riddance

mint coral
#

i like lament of orpheus more

plucky latch
#

I like the one other one. The one Eurydice sings. But I like Orpheus singing it

#

Good Riddance yeah

weary jackal
#

Good riddance is too slow for my lizard brain

hearty sierra
#

Hades' soundtracks are all good

#

Just thet The Unseen Ones is more memorable

plucky latch
#

I turn it on every time im in the house

hearty sierra
#

(shorter, too)

azure osprey
#

I need hades memes

hearty sierra
#

It's basically a message-only server, sadly

plucky latch
azure osprey
#

How

plucky latch
#

Links brotendo

azure osprey
#

Yo

plucky latch
hearty sierra
#

Yep, gifs are allowed because they're embed links

halcyon imp
#

What's the theme for hades first phase if anybody knows

hearty sierra
azure osprey
#

Me on my way to beat hades with 7 heat

hearty sierra
#

I believe, anyway

halcyon imp
hearty sierra
#

One sec, I'll go check

#

Yep, god of the dead

weary jackal
#

God of the dead is hades’ boss theme
It goes to his second phase halfway through
Idk if his third is on there or not

hearty sierra
#

Nope, EM4 has a separate track

mint coral
#

3rd phase is another track

hearty sierra
#

But God of the Dead is already 7 ish minutes long

halcyon imp
#

Alright, thank you

hearty sierra
#

More than you really need for the fight

mint coral
#

got triple bomb lucifer, havent done this in a long time

azure osprey
#

THIRD?!

hearty sierra
mint coral
#

nvm back to the house, forgot to change keepsake lol

weary jackal
hearty sierra
#

Lmao

azure osprey
#

You kidding me

mint coral
#

was gonna go artemis but i was using poseidon keepsake

hearty sierra
#

Spoiler alert

azure osprey
#

Wait

weary jackal
#

Spoilers are fine here

azure osprey
#

Is it with that one thing

hearty sierra
#

Still

azure osprey
#

Bosses gain new tricks

#

?

hearty sierra
#

It's better if they found out themselves

mint coral
#

yup

azure osprey
#

Guessed

#

I’m not touching that one

#

Looks too hard

#

To use

hearty sierra
#

I love the secondhand astonishment of newbies just going WHAT IS THIS BS

weary jackal
#

I think that’s called sadism

hearty sierra
#

Maybe so

mint coral
#

extreme measures is fun tbh, at least try it SuiSip

azure osprey
hearty sierra
#

Maybe I am alecto and I find joy in suffering

hearty sierra
azure osprey
hearty sierra
#

Ya want spoilers?

azure osprey
#

With magma lasers

azure osprey
#

Depending on how cool it is

#

If it’s just re used assets but harder

#

Idc

hearty sierra
#

I'll name a few changes then

azure osprey
#

But if it’s like

#

Sick

mint coral
#

listen to the ost in yt to see if its worth

azure osprey
hearty sierra
#

Lasers now also emit a wave like when you get the spear boon that lets you radiate when you charge spear attack

#

So no more hugging dad

#

Cerberus is now in the boss fight

azure osprey
#

WHAT

hearty sierra
#

Hades gains a second DD

azure osprey
#

FINALLY

#

I HATED THAT DOG

hearty sierra
#

And that's basically the good stuff

weary jackal
mint coral
#

he works like a summon

hearty sierra
azure osprey
#

I prefer cats

#

They should’ve made a three headed cat

mint coral
#

that means hades has a cerberus plushie

weary jackal
hearty sierra
azure osprey
#

Hades has a hades call

hearty sierra
#

Or it would be a dog biscuit

hearty sierra
azure osprey
#

I know

hearty sierra
#

It's amazing

azure osprey
#

It seems weird

hearty sierra
#

FATHER

azure osprey
#

How does that work in the boss fight

hollow magnet
#

Is Urge to Kill actually good ?

weary jackal
azure osprey
hollow magnet
#

It seems good but I don't know if it actually adds anymore damage than say, your weapon applying Doom

hearty sierra
#

Special interaction, basically

mint coral
#

hades call against dad is fun

#

FATHER! SON!

modern garnet
#

Urge to kill is nice to have

azure osprey
hearty sierra
mint coral
#

is rare for super dad to summon the dog more than once

hearty sierra
#

That's the gist of it

azure osprey
#

No thanks

mint coral
#

the best thing being the triple spin dusa

azure osprey
#

The healing sounds so annoying

hearty sierra
#

In particular he can now do that achilles spear thingy

azure osprey
#

No way I’m doing that if he heals

mint coral
#

you can stop it by breaking the pots

hearty sierra
mint coral
#

or just outdamage him

hearty sierra
#

You can charge your own call by just hittinh him

hearty sierra
#

And I quote dragoon from 7 hours ago

azure osprey
short glen
azure osprey
#

Also I have not tried it yet

hearty sierra
#

And now you're wussying out on EM4

#

Go for it

mint coral
#

em4 alone is worth a total of 10 heat too

azure osprey
#

Hmm

#

I’ll do that for my final ten heat run then

#

To make the epilogue cooler

thorn marsh
#

oh

#

LOL

hearty sierra
#

Oh you'll need to actually purchase EM4 btw

azure osprey
#

What

weary jackal
#

100 gems

mint coral
#

is a work order

hearty sierra
#

Yeah

weary jackal
#

Extremer Measures

hearty sierra
#

You want dad to kill you harder, you better pay for it

mint coral
#

is worth it dusa

hearty sierra
#

If only for the soundtrack alone

azure osprey
#

I feel like the music thing is over priced as hell by the way

#

Why do you pay in diamonds

hearty sierra
#

Also the dialogue is great and when you beat him the feeling of achievement is even better than the first time you beat him

mint coral
#

there isnt so much uses to diamond in 1st place

hearty sierra
#

Why grind for soundtracks in game when you can just listen

azure osprey
#

Probably

hearty sierra
#

Actually, no, purchasing music (except for one specific piece from Eurydice) doesn't really help Orphy

mint coral
#

worst betrayal was buying the songs with vocals only to be instrumentals dusa

hearty sierra
hollow magnet
#

Sorry

hearty sierra
#

Oop

azure osprey
#

Watch your language

#

That’s funny

#

Doesn’t the guy with the shield in the third area say s hit when he misses his spear

hollow magnet
#

I lost two defiances to her

azure osprey
#

I swear he says that

hollow magnet
#

First time I've fought her

hearty sierra
azure osprey
#

I’m guessing you’re talking about one of the fury sisters

hollow magnet
#

Her moveset is insane, especially when she's in rage

hearty sierra
hollow magnet
#

Yeah the red Fury

azure osprey
#

Correct

azure osprey
hearty sierra
#

Lmao wot Alecto?

hollow magnet
#

Yeah

hearty sierra
#

You'll get used to her soon enough

hollow magnet
#

She's much harder than either Meg or Tisiphone imo

hearty sierra
#

Just stay far away and fight like you'd fight meg

azure osprey
hearty sierra
#

Tis is the hardest for me

hollow magnet
#

Meg is like a joke compared to the other bosses

hearty sierra
#

The first real challenge

hollow magnet
#

I beat her in like my third run

hearty sierra
#

But as you progress, she becomes less and less of a challenge

hollow magnet
#

Since then I've never lost to her

hearty sierra
hollow magnet
#

But maybe that's cause I'm an xX_69Darkness_EpicGamer_Darkness69_Xx

stable glen
#

1st day playing Hades: "Oh no time to fight meg"
3rd day of playing Hades: ||"Please be meg..."||

modern garnet
#

Alecto is still the hardest fury to me, I cant keep track of all those spinning blades. But mostly I just try to outdamage her and that's how I win

stable glen
#

Especially when tis shows up and makes you blind as hell

hearty sierra
#

Tis has her stunning move and the space is so goddamn small at the end

#

Can barely avoid their AOEs

stable glen
#

Believe me, we all struggled with meg when we first got the game, all of us

hollow magnet
#

So far my weapon tierlist is Aegis >> Bow >= Spear >>>> Stygian Blade

#

I haven't tried the fists yet

hearty sierra
#

I... Alright, then

hollow magnet
#

But I feel like range is way more useful than anything else in the game almost

hearty sierra
#

Won't argue with your personal opinion

short glen
azure osprey
#

I haven’t tried to

#

But

stable glen
azure osprey
#

Can you?

stable glen
hollow magnet
#

I'm very bad at being at close range in this game shadegrief

hearty sierra
stable glen
azure osprey
stable glen
#

Varatha is spear

hollow magnet
#

I'm also biased towards Aegis because I almost beat Hades with it on my 5th run

azure osprey
stable glen
modern garnet
#

Shield really strong

stable glen

It took me 26 runs to beat the game

hollow magnet
#

I'm pretty consistent at getting to Elysium

#

The King and Bull though

#

Oh boy

hearty sierra
#

I prefer weapons that can scale with aphro's boons lmao

stable glen
#

The king and the bull are def a major obstacle for new players

#

Always focus on killing asterius 1st

hearty sierra
#

Which is not shield and not fist

arctic oasis
#

I beat hades on run 16

hearty sierra
#

Asterius first

stable glen
#

ASTERIUS

#

Sorry

#

sorry

hollow magnet
#

I haven't tried fists yet
Because I do as the Dark Thirst demands

plucky latch
#

Thirsty

stable glen
#

Fists were my favorite

hearty sierra
#

Theseus has his invul god call which will mess your day up when asterius comes in

stable glen
#

until i discovered rail

#

Anyway the strat for theseus and asterius

#

is to focus down asterius 1st

hearty sierra
#

Why punch when you can SHOOT

chrome wharf
#

because reload

hearty sierra
#

Heck, you can animation cancel with the reload pretty easily

#

And you need the eris buff anyway

azure osprey
#

The guns main weapon feels so bad

plucky latch
#

Yeah. Once I run out of a magazine, I just lob rockets until the room is over. No reload

azure osprey
#

I just don’t like how it feels

stable glen
#

Zag rail?

azure osprey
#

I think

hearty sierra
#

Lmao zag rail

#

Extra bullets

azure osprey
#

It’s the one where you gain damage

stable glen
#

Zag rail is awesome I don't care what you tell me

azure osprey
#

When you’re in the blast radius

stable glen
azure osprey
#

That’s what I use

stable glen
#

You hestia fanboys and fangirls get outta here

hearty sierra
stable glen
#

I stand by it

hearty sierra
#

Hestia has amazing scaling

#

Punches bosses in the face

plucky latch
#

This dude doesnt care about that

#

Thats all nerd talk

hearty sierra
#

I also like how this game follows mythology

stable glen
#

Idk, not a hestia fan

hearty sierra
#

Zeus gets javelin, Poseidon gets sword, Hades gets helmet; on the women's side, Hera gets the bow, demeter the gloves of malphon, and hestia A GUN

plucky latch
#

Thought Hades gets a Trident

hearty sierra
#

Nope, tridents are glorified forks and have three prongs

#

That's Poseidon

plucky latch
#

Poseidon gets a sword

#

Hades gets a Trident. He's basically Ariel's dad

hearty sierra
#

Varatha isn't the main equipment he gained when he went into tartarus to forge weapons to take down the titans

hearty sierra
#

So I think The Little Mermaid is in some form or other, related to Greek mythology

plucky latch
#

Probably. Like many stories

stable glen
#

Hear me out guys

#

max zag rail + spread fire

#
  • flurry fire
#

You can get that in a normal run, right?

signal aspen
#

No

Infinite ammo on zag rail lmao

#

that one is fun

#

but on zag rail

#

it's not that good

#

on eris

#

heheheheheheh

#

heheheheheheh

hollow magnet
#

Man, I'm really amazed at how much stuff you unlock in this game

#

Every time I think I've reached the "endpoint" of "Ok, know I now everything I can get, here's all the stuff I can dump resources into" a whole new wing opens up

#

Like I just unlocked the alternate Mirror talents, when I thought there was only one tab of them

stable glen
#

Not to scare you off...

#

But it took me 200 hours

#

to get all the unlocks

#

minus ranks which are just titles, and a badge

#

I didn't really grind for any resources, but yeah

short glen
#

I love how 3 of the four rail aspects are not good with delta chamber. Well one of those three just can't get it but still

plucky latch
#

I did it in about 69

stable glen
hollow magnet
#

Well I don't plan on getting ALL the unlocks

#

At least right now

#

My goal for now is just to beat Hades shadesmile

plucky latch
#

Pretty commendable goal

hollow magnet
#

Holy fudgesickles Zagman, the fists are fast shadeohboy

#

I like these

fiery bramble
#

I've beat Hades with every weapon like 5 times except for the Railgun, I am not good with that thing at all. Gonna upgrade it's second aspect tonight though

hollow magnet
stable glen
plucky latch
#

Yeah the gun takes some getting used to

narrow current
#

ayo

#

should I get stubborn defience or death defience?

#

for the mirror upgrades

manic bobcat
#

Yes.

plucky latch
#

Do you think you need 2 lives for bosses or 4?

narrow current
#

idk as many as possible

plucky latch
#

Then do Defiance for now

narrow current
#

okay

#

I just got to upgrade it then lol

hollow magnet
#

Oooooo upgrade adds the dash strike to the base attack shadeohboy

#

We got combos

#

I like these a LOT

Dusa is a sweet pumpkin pie

#

10% attack speed
On fists

fiery bramble
#

I still use Death Defiance, but am I crazy for thinking Stubborn is better in every way? It feels like I may be using that on higher heats, as I typically don't have too much trouble with any of the bosses

stable glen
#

When I was a new player

#

I was good at rooms, but bad at bosses

#

So I used 2 death defiances for hades

#

and I still sometimes use 2 if I'm running EM4 and my build is weak, or I'm just bad

#

But for high heat, since I cannot heal, I use stubborn defiance and the acorn keepsake in elysium and styx

#

and that's what works for me

hollow magnet
#

Nooooooo

#

Hades crashed

#

It was such a good run too

#

Hope I haven't lost all my progress

modern garnet
#

Should save in every room

hollow magnet
#

Oh

#

Oh god

#

My save file says last played 2 hours ago

#

It's right back at the beginning of my run

modern garnet
#

There might be something you can do with the temporary saves

hollow magnet
#

Whyyyyyyy it was an incredible build

modern garnet
#

Check the tech support pins

fiery bramble
#

2 hour run?

hollow magnet
#

Idk it says last played 2 hours ago

fiery bramble
#

Ah

hollow magnet
#

But it's right at the beginning of my run

#

Weird

near dune
#

Yo I have a question about making a keepsake

#

What does it do

#

Bc I did Charon and I have no clue

mint coral
#

if an item last for 3 encounters, charon boost it for +4 encounters (at base level)

near dune
#

Yeah but like when I give him all the nectar

void vigil
#

What do you mean? Do you mean forging a bond?

near dune
#

And we have a unspoken bond

mint coral
#

oh the stickers

near dune
#

Yeah my bad

void vigil
#

It does nothing, just adds a sticker and a little text

hearty sierra
#

Lmao that just signifies your bond with him

mint coral
#

you are his bff

near dune
#

So I don’t need to give everyone a bunch of nectar

hearty sierra
#

Just a lil chibi to remember him by

#

Nope

near dune
#

Who do I give nectar to that actually does something

hearty sierra
#

You can give nectar to whoever you like

near dune
#

So it never does anything

#

😐😂

hearty sierra
#

And you have to max out the heart gauge for like 5 gods to get the epilogue

#

So get gifting!

near dune
#

Gotcha thanks

void vigil
#

It’s 6, but Demeter can be at the lock and still count

near dune
#

I recently unlocked Rama and it’s so good

hearty sierra
#

Hah

#

Sure

near dune
#

3000 damage on level 3 without a crit

hearty sierra
#

Maxed sharinga is really nice

#

Chargeup for power shot is painful, though

mint coral
#

take triple explosive rama ron

#

believe me its fun

near dune
#

Especially with the 300% damage one plus twin

#

Takes so long

#

How do you get secret stashes? I’ve never gotten one

mint coral
#

i agree explosive rama takes long but normal charge up is decent

mint coral
hearty sierra
#

What are secret stashes

void vigil
#

By gifting the people defiance mentioned above

hearty sierra
#

Ah

#

Companions

near dune
#

Ahahaahhah

#

You guys are so helpful

#

Who’s is the best so I know who to nectar up

mint coral
#

meg is the most used for speedruns at least

hearty sierra
#

Speedrunners use meg's the most

#

Than and Achilles aren't bad either

#

Not like any of them are bad

I love Sisyphus'

skelly is kinda eh

hearty sierra
mint coral
#

oh yeah bouldy is a fun one

hearty sierra
#

Wish he actually moved away from the player

near dune
#

What about dusa

#

Just alright

hearty sierra
#

Would've been nice as a temporary distraction so you can take a breather

hearty sierra
#

It's cute, though

void vigil
#

Skelly? Moving? bouldy

hearty sierra
mint coral
#

skelly is never moving on its own
at least we can bonk him to the corner of the house

thorn marsh
#

using his legs to move is against skelly's religion

hearty sierra
#

At least he behaves like his punching bag role from the house

#

You can bonk him across the room with poseidon

mint coral
#

somehow even with cast and dash without boons, trying to roll for artemis dash got me heart rend

hearty sierra
#

Can't believe Poseidon dash doesn't negate lava damage smh my head

hearty sierra
#

Now go do that

mint coral
#

with the power of spread fire and zag rail i will

stable glen
#

Yk what, I'm confident to say

#

I can consistently run 32 heat now

#

on most weapons

#

still kind iffy on sword

limber fossil
#

Are duo boons supposed to be really rare or something? I’ve got the two prerequisite boons for the correct gods but I can’t seem to find the duo one :/

mint coral
#

yeah they are kinda rare
mirror skill gods legacy, yarn from charon well, eurydice nectar all help

chrome wharf
#

initially rare, eventually you get skills that up their rates a bit

stable glen
thorn marsh
#

u cant force a duo boon

#

u can force the prereqs

#

but actually getting the duo boon is RNG

limber fossil
stable glen
#

Increasing your chances, better terminology

stable glen
mint coral
#

ye, the 3rd option

limber fossil
#

I’ve been working towards maxing the mirror talent for making boons rare

mint coral
#

boosts rarity for next 3 boons

stable glen
#

God's legacy is useless, change my mind

mint coral
#

god's legacy feels like a scam most of the time

stable glen
#

because it is

thorn marsh
#

so does pride

mint coral

I've seen the effect of god's pride when seeding my runs, god's pride helps

beat the final boss ||10|| times

loud plume
#

i dont care for the story

plucky latch
#

I see. Well, you are officially done winning after 10 clears, but you've already basically beaten the game. There's not much else to it besides Heat, if you dont like the story

near dune
#

Is chain shot good for 4th aspect bow

#

I know twin is but that’s not an option atm

granite ether
#

It's not all that great imo, what other options do you have?

Sniper and point blank

Not much, some localization patches here and there

Bug fixes

In terms of balance?

Nothing?

if you played Hades any time since December last year, the game right now is not any different

robust hound
#

Cool

#

Thx

vapid narwhal
#

Almost everything since December has been exclusively bugfixes and localization improvements

#

I currently have 9 blood and am thinking about purchasing Chiron for the bow. Do I need to max it out immediately, or is it ok with the first rank or two?

#

Would be my first heat run

vapid narwhal
#

you want at least lv 4

#

Chiron is one of the few aspects that is actually quite ineffective at lower levels

neat stag
#

Dang, hate to use so much on a single weapon.

#

I know I’ll get more, but I’m still pretty early on.

#

How about Chaos for the shield? Similar story?

#

And Demeter for fists?

weary jackal
vapid narwhal
#

"at lower levels"

short glen
#

chaos is a pain to use in my experience

vapid narwhal
#

Chaos is unfortunately another aspect that wants high level to be really powerful

#

Hera is a very good bow aspect that is good from the get go, Talos for fists

#

both Eris and Hestia are great at lv 1 as well

Poseidon can be one point wonder too

Before Olympus?

Last I checked the closest you get to Olympus is the boons from the Gods up on it and the surface

untold geyser
#

why exactly is the recent Switch update 1.6 GB in size?

#

According to patch notes, all it does is fix things

vapid narwhal
#

patch size has nothing to do with content

#

there might be code and asset fixes that requires the patch to replace what is already in the game

untold geyser
#

so the game's size may not necessarily increase by 1.6GB?

vapid narwhal
#

almost certainly not

#

most patches replace things they need to fix/change

untold geyser
#

great to know

#

You know, it's quite appropriate that Talos gives magnetic cutter, considering he's apparently credited with the invention of the compass

modern garnet

? Isn't talos a giant metal robot?

Yes

He was also apparently a rival inventor to the hammer guy who's name I can't remember well enough to spell
