I mean it's not the worst but still. I swear he picks the worst things intentionally.

warm geode
#

Zag shield isn’t the worst…

boreal gale
jade zenith
#

Trying to use beo without rebinding the cast button didn't feel fun to play at all

boreal gale
#

He just used a Poseidon Stygius without cast

#

So he could show I'm just bad

#

By beating my pb

#

Wow

warm geode
#

Yeah, it was hard for me to get into bro but it does some damages if you put the work

signal aspen
jade zenith
#

If you aren't going to use casts at all for whatever reason or can't get used to hitting the button fast enough then zag shield is better than beo

warm geode
#

Oh that’s why he’s using Poseidon: he’s showing he’s better than you at an ok weapon without using casts. Now that’s a flex

dusky wedge
#

What a friend

olive goblet
#

real quick ima butt in here what god is good for gilgamesh

mint coral
#

I remapped attack into zr (switch controls) and cast into y while playing beo

warm geode
#

He’s flexing on us with the wrong build, what chad

mint coral
#

Otherwise it feels weird to use

Do zeus dash only with gilga bouldy

boreal gale
#

Okay Imma sleep now

#

signal aspen
#

Yeah dash only runs with gilg can be fun

warm geode
#

Those big chunky swings gotta get some lighting bolts in

warm geode
#

But like I asked, do you get smthng for getting all bonds? I’m fine if u don’t, but if there’s like a prophecy I didn’t get it

heady cypress
#

How exactly do you fill the bar for your ability

warm geode
#

You attack

signal aspen
heady cypress
signal aspen
warm geode
#

Yeh, and also get hit too with some boons

dusky wedge
#

Receiving damage also fills it up

weary jackal
#

I’m starting Elysium and I haven’t seen Chaos yet.
Is this a prank? Hath I been Japed? Does Chaos even exist?

heady cypress
#

It's empty everytime I enter a room, is that supposed to motivate you to use it more often?

warm geode
#

Just fight casually and ull fill it

jade zenith
#

It resets after every encounter

heady cypress
#

Oh that's sad

jade zenith
#

So just use it whenever in normal rooms

warm geode
mint coral
#

Only save for max call during bosses and if its aphro/artemis

heady cypress
#

Wanted to save 4 charges for the bossfight in elysium

mint coral
#

Most of the calls will get better use of a lesser call

heady cypress
warm geode
#

The last rooms in Styx can fill it pretty nicely tho

dusky wedge
#

In rooms, just hit it when there’s 1 gauge full

heady cypress
#

Is styx the area after elysium?

mint coral
#

Yup

warm geode
#

Yes

jade zenith
#

Well ideally you don't do any of those

dusky wedge
#

You don’t need to fill it up for rooms

warm geode
#

You can

jade zenith
#

Since miniboss rooms exist

heady cypress

#

INB4 tiny vermin

mint coral
heady cypress
#

That thing finished me faster than Hades himself

mint coral
#

What rat tho

short glen
mint coral
#

Big one or tiny vermin

heady cypress
#

The small rat boss in styx

warm geode
#

FO2 EM4shadegrief

heady cypress

#

King vermin can be pretty bad

heady cypress
mint coral
short glen
#

Add a HS to it

warm geode
#

Forced overtime 2, extreme measures 5

heady cypress
#

Btw can aphro hit through the shield of the guy who's fighting together with the cow?

boreal gale
jade zenith
#

Well playing quickly is kind of important for higher hearts but the minibosses still feel a lot easier than the big open rooms since companions exist

boreal gale
#

Asterius becoming a Beyblade and Theseus getting a car made my day

mint coral
signal aspen
warm geode
#

Alright

signal aspen
warm geode
#

I don’t think so

#

Also his name is Theseus and I hate him

mint coral
#

I dont think aphro call is piercing

#

Could be wrong tho

boreal gale
#

The bull, and it doesn't.

#

I like Asterius.

heady cypress
#

So I have to hit Theseus to charge the call/ability and kill the bull with it?

boreal gale
#

He's cool

warm geode
#

#asteriusdeservedbetter

weary jackal
#


So
I found chaos finally
And they comment on Dionysus

heady cypress
plucky latch
#

Cow gets killed

weary jackal
#

I’m going to commit homicide

plucky latch
#

Ez victory royale

warm geode
boreal gale
#

The gilgamesh convo is literally Asterius just saying he wants a friend.

boreal gale
warm geode
#

Are you here to disrespect bouldy again?

mint coral
#

I havent done the gilga prophecy on my 2nd file bc i dont want to unlock it lol

plucky latch
#

I never disrespected a rock

heady cypress
plucky latch
#

Finna mod my game so that every boss is just Dusa. Then I will disrespect

warm geode
#

You can do that but asterius has 14k I believe, you’ll charge the call with him easily

mint coral
#

Depends on the weapon but yeah asterius should be enough

heady cypress
jade zenith
#

If anything you are better off killing asterius first

boreal gale
#

Use your max call on Theseus. All of the time you'll have a max call by the time he's half health. He spends that long charging his Olympians Aid you can nearly kill him with any call.

warm geode
#

Yeah, I think he decreases like 2k health, you’ll be fine

jade zenith
#

And then using the call to skip second phase theseus

heady cypress
boreal gale
#

Some he cant

#

Most he cant

mint coral
#

Arthur sucks to charhe god gauge dusa compared to something like malphon with dash strike

heady cypress
warm geode
#

Honestly Aphrodite’s and Artemis’ call are my favorites since they’re just a burst of damage

dusky wedge
#

He can’t block a call iirc

mint coral
#

Theseus cant block during the god aid

boreal gale
#

There's you're answer

dusky wedge
#

Oh right

boreal gale
#

Your*

heady cypress
warm geode
#

For the first seconds he can’t, but then he does

dusky wedge
#

He doesn’t even block lol

mint coral
#

Malphon charges god gauge quickly

warm geode
heady cypress
boreal gale
heady cypress
warm geode
#

Ok

plucky latch
#

I wouldn't know if he blocks or not. Too much stuff on the screen and then he's dead

heady cypress
#

It's just a normal dash attack and not the uppercut right?

warm geode
#

Yes

warm geode
#

Dash- uppercut is the uppercut

plucky latch
#

Unlucky

boreal gale
#

Ooh I'm bleaching my hair tomorrow fun

heady cypress
#

Wanted to make sure, idk if a strike is a normal attack or the special thing

warm geode
mint coral
#

Ngl i like zeus with demeter aspect more than ME

boreal gale
#

Completelt irrelevant but meh

#

Zeus is fun, so is SH

warm geode
#

Zeus is fun when you get a lot of him, then it’s just lightning bolt feast

boreal gale
#

SH and ME are my favourite things on Dem

#

Dio Attack Artemis Special

#

Yes please

#

Give me that

mint coral
#

Add aphro dash for low tolerance/heart rend

warm geode
#

Dem attack zeus special

boreal gale
#

And then support fire for more chaos

mint coral
boreal gale
#

You can really rack up alot of damage quick on Malphon it's insane

#

How do I get EM4

#

I wanna fight super dad

mint coral
#

Need to get credits i think first?

boreal gale
#

I have

#

I have 16 clears now

warm geode
#

Fists can stack up 10 chill rly easy and then zeus with lighting bolts and jolted are amazing

mint coral
#

No idea what is the eaxct trigger tbh

boreal gale
#

I'm getting places

mint coral
#

I just keep playing and it unlocks

boreal gale
#

Do I have to buy it from the contractor or something?

mint coral
#

Ye

boreal gale
#

Ooh

warm geode
#

Yeah I thought it unlocked after ||getting Persephone home||

boreal gale
#

What heat is EM4, 10?

warm geode
#

Yeah you have to but it

#

Yes

candid obsidian
mint coral
#

Yeah all levels of EM is 10

warm geode
#

I mean it’s 10 heat with all of the other. Em

candid obsidian
#

Right

weary jackal
#

Em1 is 1, Em2 is 3, Em3 is 6, EM4 is 10

candid obsidian
#

My bad

warm geode
#

But honestly unless you want a death wish I wouldn’t run it, especially on high heat

mint coral
#

Alone is fine

boreal gale
#

So then I get three whipping women, a levitating Hydra Head, A bronze Beyblade with a man in a car, and super dad.

mint coral
#

Just dont add some crazy pacts to it

warm geode
boreal gale
#

I'll just do EM4 on its own

plucky latch
#

Tis has never whipped me

mint coral
#

I like the dialogue from first time em4

boreal gale
#

What actually changes about EM4?

#

I know dad gets armor

#

Does he become a Beyblade too???

warm geode
#

If you go em4, never EVER put hard labor and forced overtime together. If I do that I’m asking for death

mint coral
#

I wont spoil em4 for you

warm geode
#

Yeah let’s not

mint coral
#

Just go there and get your ass kicked by dad, or not

plucky latch
#

All he does is combo and summon Cerberus

boreal gale
#

HUH

#

DOGGO

plucky latch
#

Its not as cool as you think

warm geode
#

Bruh you just spoiled the one cool thing

boreal gale
#

He calls dog?

#

Hell yeah

warm geode
#

It was a hide surprise for me when he did that tho

mint coral
#

Friendly reminder, dad should have a plushie to summon cerb the same way we summon meg and the others

boreal gale
#

Can I summon Cerberus

warm geode
#

Nah

boreal gale
#

Oh please tell me that's somehow possiblr

#

Hades needs boons

plucky latch
#

Yeah. Just gotta make it to Styx bro

warm geode
#

As much as id like it, I think Cerberus like dad more than zag lol

mint coral
#

Hades has a boon dusa

#

That is also a keepsake

boreal gale
#

Oh cooool

warm geode
#

It’s not really a boon tho

#

It’s like a special effect which you can only get from his keepsake

boreal gale
#

How do I get access to Hades' keepsake? Just keep chatting?

plucky latch
#

Think thats what the Dusa emote is for

warm geode
boreal gale
#

I can't give him another Nectar tho

mint coral
#

If the lock is still there for dad keep talking to him

boreal gale
#

He's locked at 1 affinity

heady cypress
#

Thanks to your advice I finished the boss without dying i have 2 charges of death defiance left(3 with the keepsake)

warm geode
#

Play some more and you’ll unlock it

boreal gale
#

Now to duel with father

warm geode
#

It usually just pops up trust me

heady cypress
#

Now I can die to daddy peacefully

heady cypress
mint coral
#

The best spoiler for em4 is that the ost is amazing for it

boreal gale
#

Who in the house do you not like?

#

I dislike Nyx.

warm geode
#

Also I got it confirmed from an email with supergiant: you can only get the dusa bond once Thanatos and Meg are in the house at the same time. It’s not rng

boreal gale
#

She didn't give me my sword

warm geode
mint coral
#

Im fine with everyone in the house

boreal gale
#

So don't blast out Final Countdown during the EM4 fight. Gotcha

mint coral
boreal gale
#

Is EM4 even more surprising than Beyblade and Car Man or can I chill out?

heady cypress
#

Rip I already used skellys keepsake in this run, didn't need the charge but the game doesn't let me re-equip it, which keepsake would you recommend for daddy? I have cerberus keepsake on lvl 3 that seems like a good idea

boreal gale
#

Acorn

#

If you have Acorn I'd go for that

#

But Cerb is a solid option

warm geode
#

Acorn is good if ur skilled, which I’m not. Get something like nyx keepsake

heady cypress
#

Is acorn eurydice's keepsake

warm geode
#

Yea

boreal gale
#

Yes.

#

It's amazing

warm geode
#

It grants like 5 free hits from a boss that doesn’t deal damage

heady cypress
#

3 for me it's lvl one

warm geode
#

I just don’t like either dad since he has 2 phases (3 with em4)

hearty sierra
#

Acorn or hourglass for styx

heady cypress
#

Are 50hp better than 3 hits?

mint coral
#

If you have problems with all of styx i would take cerb

#

If only dad is the problem take acorn

heady cypress
#

I'll just avoid the rat

warm geode
#

Not with dad imp

hearty sierra
boreal gale
heady cypress
boreal gale
hearty sierra
#

Dad has more health per phsse, too

#

It's bs

boreal gale
#

So Ill be using acorn thanks

mint coral
#

Em4 is a bad choice for acorn tbh

warm geode
hearty sierra
#

Yep

#

Except for last phase

mint coral
#

Some summons will destroy your charges compared to normal dad

warm geode
#

I thought he just regained his usual 17k health

boreal gale
#

Is or just me or is EM3 Theseus easier to beat, just more irritating?

mint coral
#

Thats the general opinion

hearty sierra
mint coral
#

He just chills around for most of the fight

boreal gale
#

He doesn't really attack

weary jackal
#

EMThreeseus is easy

warm geode
#

Yeh, but with asterius em3 he’s a pain in body

mint coral
boreal gale
#

EMThreeseus. I love that.

plucky latch
#

He attacks....just never at you goaKEKW

hearty sierra
mint coral
#

Em3 theseus can destroy your acorn charges if you are careless but he doesnt do much

warm geode
#

Yeah but then asterius just keeps ramming into you and jumping which has a bigger area of affect

boreal gale
#

Does Asterius replace his Bull Rush with Beyblade or add Beyblade to his whole kit?

mint coral
#

Adds it into the kit

warm geode
#

He just adds beyblade

boreal gale
#

Because EM3 Asterius didn't bull rush once in our fight.

warm geode
#

Lucky you

boreal gale
#

He bloody well did use Beyblade though

warm geode
#

It’s not a guarantee he’ll ram

mint coral
#

The beyblade is annoying when your casts are inside the AoE or you are using melee

plucky latch
#

I actually forgot about his Beyblade move.

mint coral
#

Cant do anything except wait or try careless dash to recover

warm geode
#

The beyblade is annoying since it forces you into another spot which might have Theseus

boreal gale
#

Ram is so easy to counter. You see him charging it up, and you stroll up and punch him in the teeth.

#

Problem solved.

mint coral
#

I just block the ram lmao

warm geode
#

For me I actually kill Theseus first in em3 just to get that chariot out of the way

hearty sierra
plucky latch
#

Guess every boss is ez to counter

#

😈

boreal gale
#

The main scare was that I usually chase Asterius when he slams the ground and then he said "Surprise! Shock wave, boy." He then proceeded to annihilate half my health. I do not like that Miniboss.

weary jackal
#

Having Thanatos or Meg just nuke Theseus from orbit is hilarious

warm geode
#

I honestly hate Alecto with fo2 since sometimes she just spams beyblade and it’s so annoying

plucky latch
#

Yeah. Alecto has taken more lives than Hades

boreal gale
weary jackal
#

Alecto is easy

plucky latch
#

Hades is also easy

boreal gale
#

Who's the easiest Fury for you guys?

weary jackal
boreal gale
#

For me it's Tisiphone

warm geode
#

Also can we just appreciate the growth that tisiphone has at saying zagreus?

weary jackal
#

Tisiphone Appreciation post

plucky latch
#

Tis definitely the easiest boss in the game

boreal gale
#

Because every time she gets 33% off her health she makes it easier for me to hit her

Oh yeah sry

boreal gale
#

Charon has a wider vocabulary than Tisiphone

warm geode
#

Nah man

#

He just mumbles

#

And grumbles

boreal gale
#

Is there any logical reason why Tisiphone is only capable of two words?

mint coral
#

Also @ leo
Have you borrowed from charon already?

warm geode
#

He’s like “nnnngghhgngnhjng I like money nnhnnghnghhnghh

boreal gale
#

Have I... Huh?

Charon doesnt talk. People just assume what he says and he doesn't complain

hearty sierra
warm geode
hearty sierra
#

Enter charon's shop whenever you can

boreal gale
#

Do I have to fight Charon

#

I'm down for that

hearty sierra
#

Charon will have a free sack of 300 gold sometimes

warm geode
#

Yeh, just not in the last room before a boss fight

warm geode
mint coral
#

Yeah you can throw hands with charon

hearty sierra
#

Just for you <3

warm geode
#

You definitely have to pay a price to get that sack

Are there any other secret bosses?

Can I throw hands with my mother

“Hey, free money” The naive zagreus says as Charon pummels him into the ground of Erebus and drowns him in the river styx

mint coral

#

Good luck

boreal gale
#

I reaaaly wanna backhand Persephone.

mint coral
#

Charon is the only secret boss

boreal gale

Damnit

So I cannot backhand my mother

#

What a shame

heady cypress
#

How much hp does death defiance give me

warm geode
#

Unfortunate no

hearty sierra
#

If you have 400, it regens 200

boreal gale
heady cypress
#

So 2 stacks are basically doubling my hp?

#

I have 450 hp then

warm geode
#

No, they work one at a time

You basically have two health bars, yeah

Oh that’s what u meant lol

I want to smack mother.

heady cypress

boreal gale

I'll settle for Charon instead I guess

plucky latch
#

On the lip?

More accurately Charon will settle for me

hearty sierra
#

I mean... Go ahead

plucky latch
#

Yeah. Persephone is a babe

mint coral

I still like that ||dad gains a second dd on em4, just proves he is a spear main zag|| <- em4 spoilers

boreal gale
#

As he drowns me in the Styx

hearty sierra
#

We'll see who wins between Charon and you

boreal gale
#

I really wanna fight Charon now

hearty sierra
#

Wish they upgraded his cast tho

#

His moveset's all special but his cast is just cast

boreal gale
#

If we were to list who I wanna smack, Alecto, Nyx and Persephone are at the top of the list

warm geode

“Mother, I have put up with your obedience for too long, and want to duke it out with you right her and now to show you what I’m capable” zagreus says, not knowing that a god older than even his father should not be tempered with

Nyx, and persephone, though? I can see the appeal of Alecto after you get together with Meg

boreal gale

Nyx didn't give me my Sword

Has anyone ever gotten a Satyr sack at the first path? Is it even possible?

Not possible

Coded that way

It’s always the second or later

It's only possible to get a second

Or a third

boreal gale
#

It's always 50/50

I figured, otherwise i'd be an extreme exception

warm geode
#

Yeh

boreal gale
#

If I were attempt to backhand poor boatman Charon how would it go?

strong ridge
#

since thanatos can be assumed to be a more direct (albeit scaled down) version of nyx
nyx would have than aoe death ability but stronger + teleportation

Huh

The true boss is not EM4 Dad.

hearty sierra

It is max heat Boatman.

Just EM4 by itself

I wish Thanatos would have a more concrete way of showing up than just random chance, since I still haven’t gotten the Meg +than scene

#

this is a joke

#

I still respect you if you have 50 mins

My only clear on another weapon is 32m lmao

#

Thats Stygius Arthur

Arthur was my on at a time

boreal gale
#

What can I say, Dem Malphon is where I shine.

mint coral
#

i think all times i played arthur i would have timed out with TD3

boreal gale
#

But at least I have a clear on another weapon

hearty sierra
#

Imagine not having +15% dodge chance while playing fists

stoic flame
#

I tried td3 for the first time like last night

#

it wasn't as bad

#

tarturus was a bit too close for comfort tho

mint coral
#

i can do it with other weapons, just not arthur ww

boreal gale
#

I'm gonna try TD2. I'm getting times between 22-16m now consistently so I think I can manage TD2.

mint coral
#

my average is normally 14-17 mins

#

my average with arthur was 22 mins dusa

boreal gale
# boreal gale Thats Stygius Arthur

Bear in mind, this was also my first EM3 run, and I went AFK for a while, without pausing like an intelligent person. So 32 is forgivable.

#

TD2, EM2, DC2 seems easily doable.

hearty sierra
#

Wait you've only played increasingly higher heats on a single aspect?

plucky latch
#

Yeah all my times are long cuz I just afk talk to friends

boreal gale
#

All my clears have been dem Malphon

hearty sierra
#

Fascinating

boreal gale
#

Aside from the one on Arthur

plucky latch
#

Got like 50+ minute runs on average

hearty sierra
#

Seems pigeonholing yourself a bit

#

But hey I'm not gonna judge

#

Dem malphon rocks

boreal gale
#

I'm going for the Aspects before I use them.

mint coral
#

I mean if you can rack easy wins with the weapons might as well get the titan blood

#

Better than learning other weapons dusa

boreal gale
#

I'm gonna max out Nemesis, Achilles, Beowulf, Chiron, Dem and I'll leave Rail for now.

severe pelican
#

yeah i like the titan blood grinding

#

means when i do switch weapon it will be evne more powerful!!!

boreal gale
#

I prefer Nemesis to Arthur

What's pidgeon holing

hearty sierra
#

Not poseidon?

Cast builds ftw

I like poseidon but that just my mindset after playing with hera/beo for a little too much

Nah. I'm not the biggest fan on Poseidon

Casts good

Who's the hardest of the Furies for you guys? I'd say Alecto.

void vigil
#

I really didn’t like rail until I started doing bounties and had to learn how to play it

severe pelican
#

yea its probs alecto

void vigil
#

Even now it’s still my least favorite, but I’m probably okay at it

boreal gale

I'm not leaving rail out because I don't like it, it's fun but I don't have a clue what I'm doing.

Love attempting a max heat run and getting stopped at room 3

#

Why do Armored enemies have like 4x health???

manic bobcat

because they are armored

mint coral
#

BP2 and CP2 moment

boreal gale
#

I came across a grabbing thing with a health bar that was 4x larger than normal.

#

Confusion

#

BP2?

mint coral
#

Benefit packages has a benefit that increases their max hp
Calisthenic programs lvl 2 adds 30% more hp

boreal gale
#

Wait

#

Would BP affect the Armored enemies in the Hades fight

mint coral
#

Nope

boreal gale
#

Thank

hearty sierra

lmao max heat runs

boreal gale
#

Max heat scares me

#

I made the heat gauge cry

mint coral
#

BP is fun until 6 numb skulls get savior and your dps is meh

hearty sierra
#

I can't even get past tart in time with max heat

boreal gale
#

Wait what's max TD time?

#

20m?

hearty sierra
#

5 mins

stoic flame
#

I feel like my tarturus keeps becoming worse and worse as I play

hearty sierra
#

5 mins per biome, 20 total

boreal gale
#

So there were 2 runs I've done that were TD3

#

Cool

hearty sierra
#

At least OP stuff like Chiron/Hestia + Shackle works

boreal gale
#

Imagine Max Heat Charon fight

#

I would die

hearty sierra
#

TD3 valid, yeah

mint coral
#

Not so many things affect charon

hearty sierra
#

Even if time runs out, it just starts draining your health, 5 at a time

#

It's not insta-death

boreal gale

CP Charon

severe pelican
#

ive found my elysium getting sloppy

mint coral

HL, CP, DC, FO and i think that it is?

severe pelican
#

like pure naff positioning on my part

boreal gale
#

I'd say my Styx is my best

#

Asphodel makes me want to shoot myself

mint coral
#

Aspho is my worst
Enemy on the other side of the map goes brrr

boreal gale
#

And Elysium I just hate shielded enemies

#

And butterfly balls

#

Whoever made them can burn in the depths of Asphodel

hearty sierra
#

Overall I go through asphodel the quickest but asphodel also has the fewest encounters of the three biomes

severe pelican
#

i am getting a lot better at styx

#

since realising that the boss rooms are reallyyyyy fine

hearty sierra
#

Butterflies are pretty and fine

boreal gale
#

I'm quite often losing alot of time in the back of Asphodel/Front of Elysium

mint coral
#

Butterfly in erebus just to annoy everyone

boreal gale
#

Like I'll get to Megagorgon in 5m and then idk what happens.

severe pelican
#

i havent done erebus gates yet

#

are they worth

hearty sierra
#

They are if you're not taking TD3 IMO

mint coral
#

If you are speedrunning they arent

high arch
#

They are just an extra gate but with an extra objective

hearty sierra
#

The rewards are pretty good

boreal gale
#

I'm not even using my contractor for the benefits. I just want Orpheus to sing for me.

mint coral
#

Otherwise double reward for poms/hearts/money and rarity for boons is great

boreal gale
#

Is there any specific trigger to get Orpheus to sing?

hearty sierra

Just keep playing

Why is Zagreus so short

Didn’t Poseidon kill Icarus technically too

Or was that just Daedalus

Actually no Icarus fell into the ocean, so yeah Poseidon did that

Drowning is poseidon's fault??

sooo apollo's fault?

Everyone who has ever drowned is Poseidon’s doing

Poseidon watched Icarus die. That's not cool. Not allowed. But Icarus wouldn't have lived long anyway

hearty sierra

Technically it was the wax holding the feathers together, and they wouldn't have melted had icarus not flew so goddamn close

Athena is prideful, spiteful and pretty goddamn evil, Poseidon really doesn’t have a good relationship with cities (he destroys dozens with earthquakes), Zeus is well, Zeus

To be fair, a lot of the Greek mythos has gone through many iterations and changes even during the time of the Greeks themselves.
