#

That's why I need to find he4

polar root
#

use her keepsake

whole ridge
#

XD

brisk trail
#

To give her Nectar

polar root
#

oh

#

nvm

brisk trail
#

I think she has an allergy to Nectar or something because this is ridiculous

whole ridge
#

I always give God's Nectar upon first meeting to get it then and there

brisk trail
#

Whenever I have Nectar I never find Artemis

whole ridge
#

Afterwards I don't bother with giving Nectar to boon gods other than Chaos until everyone else is taken care of

#

Because priorities

#

Like schmoozing Meg and Dusa

brisk trail
#

I'm also trying to max out my affection with Meg for her favor thing

brisk trail
whole ridge
#

ya get more than just her favor if you cap it out~

#

I wasn't sure if you had gotten to Than yet xD

#

But yes Than too

brisk trail
#

Yeah I'm all the way at Styx now

whole ridge
#

Gotcha gotcha.

forest falcon
#

How do i trade keys for ambrosia?

#

Or nectar

brisk trail
#

Still terrified of Hades' final form and I haven't even seen it yet

forest falcon
#

Or whatever

whole ridge
#

Wretched Broker in the lounge

brisk trail
#

Shop keeper in the lounge

forest falcon
#

Got it ty

whole ridge
#

Titan Blood can be gotten for 1 Ambrosia, Ambrosia for 2 Diamonds, diamond for 10 Nectar, Nectar for 5 Keys, key for 10 Gemstones, and occasionally really good timed deals

#

So always check it after each run even if ya don't have mats for the permanent ones

brisk trail
#

Can you get ambrosia any other way besides the heroes?

forest falcon
#

Fish

brisk trail
#

Because its required for favours right

polar root
whole ridge
#

Broker

brisk trail
#

Demeter cast evaporates boss health my God.

whole ridge
#

Wretched Broker in the lounge gives Ambrosia for 2 diamonds and you can get Ambrosia, Diamond, or Titan Blood from the fish on the surface in the Hades boss room onward

#

So long as you can catch them standing still it can yes

forest falcon
#

What boons should i go for with aspect of guan yu

brisk trail
#

Just melted Tisiphone lmao

whole ridge
#

It's not as handy for like, Hades because he moves around a ton

#

Tisiphone is quick anyways in an enclosed arena

#

It also aces Lernie, because he's rather stationary

brisk trail
#

Is Poseidon attack boon on Coronacht any good?

whole ridge
#

Ehhhh can be

polar root
brisk trail
#

It's between Poseidon and Dionysius

viral fable
#

if im repeating a heat that I've already done, do the rewards such as gems etc increase if I repeat higher heat?

polar root
#

get a high % boon on your special

forest falcon
#

Alr

#

Aphrodite would be good ig because damage res too

brisk trail
#

I'm trying to go for Artemis boon on my special because I'm using Chiron

polar root
#

get charged special

#

ezpz run

whole ridge
#

Regardless of heat

brisk trail
#

Into Asphodel. My least favourite area

whole ridge
#

Asphodel is the easiest once ya get the hang of things

#

Well, Tartarus is also pretty ez

polar root
#

tru

whole ridge
#

But you have decent boons for Asphodel, and Lernie is a push over

polar root
#

asphodel is easier for me because its even smaller than tartarus

#

8 chambers isnt it?

brisk trail
#

I only have two demeter boons it's tragic

wise oasis
#

You can get like half of asphodel being free chambers pretty easily

brisk trail
#

This run is awful

whole ridge
#

The biggest nuisance area for me is Elysium, especially if I get the butterfly mini boss

polar root
wise oasis
#

Butterfly boss is the best, just meg and hit it twice

#

Ez

polar root
#

asterius is more satisfying

#

:(((((

wise oasis
#

RTA time loss

polar root
#

the 4000 dmg I do with beo is just

whole ridge
#

Asterius is more fun and less annoying tho

polar root
#

more.....Nice

wise oasis
#

More time loss

polar root
#

makes sense

whole ridge
#

Who cares 'bout time

polar root
#

I'm never gonna RTA

#

I wanna get a sub 9

whole ridge
#

Not like people actually use Tight Deadline

polar root

wise oasis
#

But sub 10 took enough tries

polar root
#

XD

wise oasis
#

Td3 is pretty easy with some practice

polar root
#

mhm

brisk trail
#

Stun locking someone with Coronacht is so satisfying

#

I'VE ONLY SEEN DEMETER BOONS ALL. GAME

whole ridge
#

I noted timer pauses at the end of areas, pausing, and when collecting Boons.

brisk trail
#

What is this

polar root
#

send help

whole ridge
#

I thought you only had 2 Demeter Boons >~>

viral fable
# whole ridge Regardless of heat

That wasn't my question. So basically what im asking, Im already heat 15, and now if I repeat heat 5 or heat 10, does the rewards in gems and such differ alot

wise oasis
#

No

brisk trail
whole ridge
#

No

wise oasis
#

If you're farming darkness go low heat

AND LITERALLY JOTHING ELSE

It's tragic

#

9 encounters = 3 Heroics

brisk trail
#

Yeah but I kinda need other boons for my build

polar root
brisk trail
#

Finally a Dio boon

whole ridge
#

Yer build is what you can make with your given boons and gods

brisk trail
#

So my build is Demeter

#

Got it

whole ridge
#

Her call is good

brisk trail
#

Yeah

#

Her call and cast are good

#

I'm looking for an Artemis boon and sat on 5 nectar because I'm not finding any Gods

#

Is demeter a separate thing from the rest of the Olympians, like Hermes?

dusky wedge
#

She counts as an Olympian

#

Hermes as well

#

In terms of god pools, she is there with the rest of the Olympians, unlike Hermes

vapid narwhal
#

she is a "normal" Olympian

#

in that she has normal suite of attack/special/cast/dash/call boons

silk comet
#

You guys have really won me over on Hera cast builds.

#

pfft

whole ridge
#

I think that odds are a bit skewed towards Demeter on the run immediately after your first clear though

#

Because beating Hades 1 time is the conditions to make her available

#

Don't take my word though xD

hearty sierra
#

wish me luck, guys

#

Ruthless reflex and FO6 do not go together lmao

silk comet
#

Hmm, one of the issues I'm having at the moment is now I'm using hera/cast I seem to just get hit a lot

hearty sierra
#

Hard choice

#

I'd say extra cast is easier

silk comet
#

I have no death defiance left

#

Hmm, maybe I'll get the guy who can reset it for me

hearty sierra
#

Er

#

Less dash distance is pretty detrimental, though

silk comet
#

True, I just went cast

brisk trail
#

should've gone with the +1 death defiance for the prophecy

#

it's really hard to get

clever thicket
#

What does Hades drop when you kill him on a heat level where you already collected the titans blood?

hearty sierra
hearty sierra
clever thicket
#

how much?

forest falcon
#

Made it to hades with aspect of guan yu and the got clapped

#

Didn't even make it to second phase

hearty sierra
sick mauve
#

more i think

#

cuz form elysium u get 140 something around this number

clever thicket
#

thanks

#

I'm at 250% darkness/treasure gain due to chaos+the weapon becoming dark, so next time when im doing a run for darkness/gems, ill pick a heat levelwhere ive killed all bosses ;/

sick mauve
#

250% ? wow so u will get so much darknes heh

forest falcon
#

How do i unlock more hidden weapon aspects?

#

I have guan yu and beowulf

sick mauve
#

u need to level up not zagreus ascpects if i know

forest falcon
#

Ale

clever thicket
sick mauve
#

wow

clever thicket
#

%'s are additive right? or accumulative?

hearty sierra
#

Additive, I Believe

#

I think it's consistent across all buffs of the sort

wise oasis
#

It depends on the buff

#

movement speed for example is multiplicative

hearty sierra
#

That's odd

#

So Hermes' speed buff would compound with Ignited Ichor and Plume?

#

Makes rush delivery a lot better

granite ether
#

not really, you could hypothetically stack chaos curses till you had 0 movement speed if it were addictive

wise oasis
#

Current seeded wr would have 0% move speed if it were additive

hearty sierra
#

Can't you?

#

I'll try it

#

But also goddamn the balls on speedrunners

#

Movement is entirely bssed on dashing?

wise oasis
#

rip my sub 10 pace run, on the 4th tunnel and no sack in sight

#

any 5 sackers

this tartarus is looking so nice though

#

Noooooo I ended my 40 heat shield run in such a dumb way

#

I walked straight into a cluster shot from the elysium witches with HL5 and the armoured enemy modifier which makes their attack stronger and I just instadied

what's better? curse of drowning, or black metal?

Hi, is there any chance to see Hades on iOS later (like Bastion and Transistor)? Or is this not planned in the future?

I’m very new to the game and only got the game when it came out on Xbox, and my highest run is to Theseus and the Minotaur in elysium does anybody have any general tips?

Thanks I’ll try it next time I reach them

Hi! I'm on Xbox, and for some reason many achievements like "Is there no Escape ?" or "To Charon's Credit" didn't unlock! My Xbox is connected to internet and I'm playing in Hell Mode. Any idea?

#

Just do a hard reset, fully shutdown your console, give it 30 second then turn it back on.

#

You can do a full shutdown through the Settings menu, or holding down the power button for 5-7 seconds. If you're on Series X, I'd recommend going through the Settings menu

hermes never shows up in the first run of a file, right? thanthink

raw herald
#

Correct

void vigil

and can you find a third hermes boon in the styx tunnels or only in the shop?

should only be shop, but Im not sure

Only shop

thats what i thought, thanks!

vocal remnant
#

Finally got the first end ToT

#

It's almost been a year since I bought the game xD I'm slow af

neat stag
#

Are the bounties on a run tied to the overall weapon, or each aspect? For example, if I finish the game with Zags bow with 0 heat, can I get new bounties (blood, gem, etc) using Chiron aspect with 0 heat?

raw herald
#

Overall weapon

Gotcha, thanks!

Can you keep the Loyalty Card across runs if you don't die, or is it gone after every run regardless?

#

What do y'all reckon the chances of finding five fish in one run are? (without the poseidon legendary)

whole ridge
#

Low

#

I've found 4 before, but 5 is hard

#

4 is also not often but not impossible

#

You gotta roll a room where it even has a possible fishing spot and then roll a fishing spot

#

It's much more likely if ya get Poseidon leggo tho I imagine

brisk trail
#

if you get lucky with well of charon rolls and get 2 or even 3 lures i imagine it's possible

It's a miniboss chamber, the end reward will be better with a buffed version of one of the enemies in the final chamber

I got both the switch and the switch lite but can only access my lite right now, does the game still run well? I have it on PC and adore it but currently dont have my controller either so wondering if its worth getting on switch.

hello i wanna ask abt the fishes. after we got the epilogue (ma coming back) we couldn't go to greece, right? the place when we fight hades, does it have the same fish as greece??

Heartbreak has the highest damage multiplier for attacks, so they’re the best for brute force

She showed up in my room a few runs ago and has been straight absent

On chiron for example Id take arti special over aphro special almost always

I took atri special on stygian then got legendary aphro, kinda sad

Why chaos and Hermès

Is thunder dash useful or nah

weary jackal

Situationally

Seems kinda bad but I wanna try to use weird boons here and there

strong ridge

one of the weaker ones imo

mint coral

is fun at least

lone kernel
#

It’s obvi no splash dash or Athena dash

strong ridge
#

works better with zeus centric build

lone kernel
#

Yeah, Zeus ends up getting picked a lot lol

#

Just can’t justify taking a dash over jolted or a legendary prerequisite

strong ridge
#

if u get lightning reflex + the one where it hits again sometimes it gets a lot better

#

but that’s a lot of boons for a dash lol

mint coral
#

zeus dash is my excuse to use gilga

raw herald
#

It's good if you get all the Zeus boons in the world

#

But tidal dash with a few poms will always be better, and way easier to obtain

weary jackal
#

I love that with the natural knockback of the shield you can push enemies into the blender of Zeus

strong ridge

i like to run around with it like a kite

weary jackal

Same

But that only really works in large areas

strong ridge

i just think it’s funny

Funny, and effective at killing Flame Wheels

Dionysus' dash is pretty good at killing Flame Wheels too if you time it right

According to the numbers, she is the best for DPS on slow hitting attacks

Yeah.

Weak is a factor as well, and breakpoints

Randomness as well

True. I'd use her more if I wasn't using CHADthur all the time.

Just Varatha gives me the bonuses this run so I'm just kinda using it as a reason to learn its playstyle

raw herald

Oh, I thought you said how to unlock Achilles spear, my bad

Well, a cast build is a good place to start

I also am gonna give Chaos Ambrosia to get him maxed

I only need to give them one more, but had to break away from the game to get ready for work

Wanting to get these ones outta the way before hitting on the Gods just because they aren't guarantees to show up in runs (with my luck, Sisyphus esoecially)

Her call is kinda mediocre compared to the others too

BOONS

weary jackal
#

People seem to really like merciful end

azure osprey
#

What does that do again

#

Bad memory!!

weary jackal
#

It makes Doom effects trigger instantly and I think do more damage

azure osprey
#

That actually sounds

#

Really OP

signal aspen
#

Things that can deflect will instantly set off doom

azure osprey
#

So if I reflect an elite mages attack

#

Doom triggers

#

Three times instantly?

#

Or something like that

weary jackal
#

Divine Protection (Her legendary) is just a slightly better Acorn

raw herald
#

Athena is top tier for high heat

wise oasis
#

If you have doom on the oponnent and hit them with a deflecting boon the doom gets triggered

raw herald
#

And still has a few broken boons for speedruns

weary jackal
wise oasis
#

Lightning phalanx is pretty good

wise oasis
#

Deadly reversal is also good

#

Merciful end is incredibly op

raw herald
#

Merciful end is probably the best duo boon in the game

mint coral
#

You can also pair with impending doom for free extra doom damage

wise oasis
#

The defence she offers is super valuable and her percentages are honestly not too bad

azure osprey
wanton quail
#

Naw there's a boon that makes doom take longer

#

But do a bunch more damage

wise oasis
#

You're not understanding how merciful end works

wanton quail
#

And you insta dash anyway

raw herald
#

You apply doom with the attack, then instantly deflect with the dash

strong ridge
#

if u already have doom on a target and i hit them w a deflect it will trigger the doom

wanton quail
#

But you need to get Athena special to get duo boon

raw herald
#

Doom goes from occuring every 1.1/1.6s to every dash strike

strong ridge
wanton quail
#

But you want ares attack so don't do that ^

azure osprey
#

Which isn’t consistent

strong ridge
#

no it’s deflect

wanton quail
#

You get Athena dash for the build

lone kernel
#

You need ares attack athena special and dash

raw herald
#

Every dash strike = every deflect if you have divine dash

strong ridge
#

look ik the optimal one but it is an option

lone kernel
#

Special required for getting it to pop

wise oasis
#

Any Athena boon hitting counts as a deflect

lone kernel
#

But the dash makes it pop

wise oasis
#

You don't need to deflect an attack

lone kernel
#

So punch dash punch dash

#

ares go brrr

raw herald
#

No just spam dash and attack

#

That's it

azure osprey
raw herald
#

You can unga-bunga all you want bouldy

azure osprey
#

So that sounds good

#

Now

lone kernel
#

And the boon that makes doom hit harder becomes like 65% more doom damage for free lol

wanton quail
#

Its absolutely the dumbest feeling ever

craggy pumice
#

Hypnos is a man 😲

wise oasis
#

It works with literally everything and is so strong

wanton quail
#

Also doom stack

craggy pumice
#

Mr Hypnos was mentioned

weary jackal
wanton quail
#

XD you didn't know?

#

But I think heart rend is more consistent than merciful end

craggy pumice
#

Hypnos has a very feminine voice

wise oasis
#

Heart rend is a bit different imo, it wants things that can use crits

wanton quail
#

Nyx has 3 daughters and the rest are her sons

wise oasis
#

Merciful end just destroys

raw herald
#

ME shreds when you get it though, heart rend is just meh if you don't have innate crit

#

And solid when you do

wanton quail
#

I just mean as a duo boon that you're trying to get

strong ridge
#

hypnos is the stoner of the house

plucky latch

You think Hypnos sounds feminine?

wanton quail

Maybe when I upgrade my mirror a bit I can more consistently get me

compared to the incarnate of death and king of hell yea

Orpheus is the female

Orpheus is a man

non-mutual-exclusive statement

Nyx in my opinion

Heart rend is easier to make happen, but it’s like anything, depends on weapon. Merciful end Excalibur is a total meme, but merciful end is also the tool of choice for first run clears
