You could also try to use the shield and kill everything with the special attack(the shieldthrow) if you're in trouble just block everything and dash to a safe spot if possible(I obviously don't know what im talking about, dont quote me on anything)

lone kernel
#

youll get used to it

#

if you can memorize your own phone number, you can remember this

#

it just takes time to learn to basically speak a new language

azure osprey
#

I hate everything for the spear

#

Except

#

Zag spear

thorn marsh
#

so figured them out

heady cypress
#

It starts with 1516 and ends with 110 that's itbouldy

thorn marsh
#

or just ask

limber mist
azure osprey
#

But

#

What do they mean

heady cypress
thorn marsh
#

extreme measures tight deadline and hard labor

#

EM TD HL

lone kernel
mint coral
#

Guan yu charged skewer/hestia should be good for 30% than keepsake

strong ridge
#

td more tfree

lone kernel
#

until u get to td3 lol

#

sweat

#

i gotta stick to td2 for weapons i dont know that well yet lol

thorn marsh
#

TD3 is fine

heady cypress
#

Why is hc the abbreviation for hard labor that doesn't make any sense

strong ridge
#

it’s not lol

azure osprey
#

How is special in the hidden aspect for the shield different

#

Is it just slower

thorn marsh
#

its not

strong ridge
#

high convenience

thorn marsh
#

its just slower and does beeg damage

#

and u can do a special build with it

#

thats not hot ass chaos shield

heady cypress
#

I have 3 titan blood, how should I use it stygius and malphon are my favs

azure osprey
#

Chaos shield feels clunky sometimes

#

I’m only missing fist and Lucifer

#

Which is funny because

#

They’re the HARDEST

heady cypress
#

Zags malphon is already lvl 3 don't ask why
Talos is lvl 1
Didnt use any blood on stygius

lone kernel
#

but whatever

#

youll get more

heady cypress
strong ridge
#

poseidon is the only stygius build worth anything bc u do not use the sword

azure osprey
#

One of them is talk to Zeus and get lucky

#

The other is

#

Get to the third area

#

Talk to the Minotaur twice

#

While getting two specific dialogues

#

One with the fists

#

One with any weapon

lone kernel
#

my man youll get asterius to give u the thing u need i promise

#

keep doin runs

#

itll happen

#

i think you need fists equipped to make it happen

#

you got this

heady cypress
#

Pausing the game doesn't affect the timer right?

lone kernel
#

It does not

heady cypress
#

The one for td

lone kernel
#

Speedruns pause and think about which door to take a lot lol

heady cypress
#

So I can go to the toilet before hades cuz I'm panicking too much if I don't?

lone kernel
#

Clock also stops in friend room (Sisyphus Eurydice patty) and on Thanatos

#

You can, but what I recommend is a deep breath

#

I usually let the entire opening dialogue play out and do a few breaths if I think it’ll be a sweaty fight

#

Or if you’re on switch, you can kill your dad mid duke

strong ridge
#

running into than sub 2 minutes is a great feeling

heady cypress
#

I have an important question

lone kernel
#

TD1 is 36 minutes, even if it’s close in Tartarus asphodel is shorter and will give you time back

heady cypress
#

When you go into your settings and change the volume of the music

#

Which song do you listen to

#

Since a male is singing im assuming it's one of Orpheus songs?

chrome wharf
#

Lament of Orpheus yeah

heady cypress
#

Beautiful

#

Now let me do 5000 heat and murder everyone in the underworld to get enough diamonds

chrome wharf
#

you'll unlock it eventually if you give him and Eurydice enough nectar

spare tiger
#

You guys are gonna love this

#

I got Swift Strike at epic rarity using Excalibur

#

IN TARTARUS

lone kernel
#

yeet

spare tiger
#

I basically just offset the biggest downside of Excalibur

thorn marsh
#

anything that affects the actual In game timer that is not TD affects TD

heady cypress
#

So I can't just pause and the heat will kill me?

#

/td

lone kernel
#

you can pause

strong ridge
#

u pause can

heady cypress
#

Tartaros in 5:27

#

Not too bad ig for my first speedy try

thorn marsh
#

ur using TD1 for speedrun?

heady cypress
#

Yes

thorn marsh
#

why?

heady cypress
#

I'm not speedrunning tho

thorn marsh
#

Td1 makes it harder to speedrun

heady cypress
#

I just didn't want to die

heady cypress
#

How

thorn marsh
#

this is for IGT categories

heady cypress
thorn marsh
#

TD1 disables a freeroom thats stops the IGT

heady cypress
thorn marsh
#

in game timer

heady cypress
#

Oh

lone kernel
#

@thorn marsh scope creep - the goal here is to learn super early game heat

thorn marsh
#

nahaha

#

was just saying

heady cypress
#

Yes

#

Exactly

thorn marsh
#

l e l

strong ridge
#

he is trying out td1 he very obviously is not worried abt that

lone kernel
#

slow it down lol

heady cypress
#

I just want to get some more blood and diamonds for the beautiful osts

thorn marsh
#

yeah LOL

#

but for future refernece

#

see

#

im helpful Kappa

lone kernel
#

@heady cypress go for it on td1

umbral whale
#

Oh man id rather have TD than deal with a 45 second room.

lone kernel
#

its only gonna be okay once you just go do it lol

#

i doubt itll even be a thing if just td1

#

if you can clear a run in 35 minutes or less

#

youre fine

thorn marsh
#

yeah

#

its fine

lone kernel
umbral whale
#

I mean TD1 dont you only get 27 min? I thought Styx didnt give you another 9 mins

lone kernel
#

it does

#

36 min total

#

28 for TD2, 20 for TD3

#

9/7/5 per biome

#

5 gets sweaty

umbral whale
#

Ah. Its been a bit since ive done one with td. Lol i did it like twice. Once to get a clear with it and once when i did my first Eris run to get to 10 heat

lone kernel
#

but eventually you're gonna say, wow, i did that in 24 minutes

#

maybe i can use td2 for 3 heat for absolutely free

heady cypress
lone kernel
umbral whale
#

I mean my usual time is 21-26 min if im not dragging my butt or checking my phone between rooms

lone kernel
#

just pause if u wanna ping the discord

umbral whale
#

And that was without Eris. I think my next run im gonna attempt a td3 with Eris but no other heat. Just to see if i can do it

lone kernel
#

yessssssssss

heady cypress
lone kernel
#

i love that

heady cypress
#

Didn't have to pay attention until now

lone kernel
#

go do your run, someone will be here

#

if you constantly shift your focus between discord and the run

#

you'll be less comfortable when it gets harder

umbral whale
#

Zeus for Tartarus, Poseidon for Asphodel (if i dont have the dash already, Artemis for Elysium.

heady cypress
#

Btw i just got the last keepsake(except for the one from persephone)

thorn marsh
#

ooh

umbral whale
#

Theres one more after that

thorn marsh
#

dad keepsake is poggies

#

ah crap what did i just do

umbral whale
#

You said a cursed thing

lone kernel
#

this is a spoilers allowed channel its fine

umbral whale
lone kernel
#

problem is, that could mean up to 6 gods in your pool

#

which is a mess lol

#

given that it's eris, you'll be fine

umbral whale
#

But i get more % damage bonus cuz the mirror

#

5% per god

lone kernel
#

thats 5 percent

#

if you lost Zeus from your god pool doing that

#

and say, didnt have jolted

#

that 5% is not gonna make up that difference

#

does that make sense? has someone explained how god pools work to you

umbral whale
#

I use zeus keepsake in tartarus and reroll to get Zeus atk and jolt

lone kernel
#

you're missing the point

heady cypress
#

Oh no

lone kernel
#

if that artemis keepsake kicks zeus out of your god pool

heady cypress
#

Should I take the demeter/artemis duo boon or the hunters mark

lone kernel
#

that takes a lot of potential energy

heady cypress
#

I'm already critting everything

lone kernel
#

@heady cypress always the meme beam

#

homing lasers

#

are cool

heady cypress
#

The meme beam sounds good tho

lone kernel
#

mark is okay, but like

#

whatever lol

heady cypress
#

I'll just take it for the achievement

lone kernel
#

homing lasers are fun

#

if you can get glacial glare too

#

and arctic blast

#

it gets nuts

umbral whale
#

Yeah but if i can get zeus arty duo boon i can just throw my bloodstones at a wall and clear hades phase one in like 20 second tops

thorn marsh
#

mark is great

umbral whale
#

Thats what i did last time

lone kernel
#

(note for arctic blast you need a core dem boon that causes chill, which means dem attack/special/dash/call)

lone kernel
#

i find more success when i'm more focused

#

taking a keepsake of a god in your pool already for a duo you want going into elysium, sure

#

but you're restricted to 4 gods in your pool (not counting hermes) that once you have four different, other gods won't spawn

#

if you force it with a keepsake, a god is randomly kicked out of your pool

heady cypress
#

Did asphodel in less time than tartaros

lone kernel
#

if you lose the dionysus line, big deal if youre running like, strong drink

heady cypress
#

My speed is increasing most likely due to the hermes boon I got

lone kernel
#

but if you lose zeus

heady cypress
#

I can dash up to 5 times now

lone kernel
#

you're screwed lol

#

does that make sense i know that was a lot

heady cypress
#

And my dash attack is op everything is critting the poor enemies to death

chrome wharf
#

is a god kicked out? There are people saying otherwise

modern garnet
#

no I don't think a god gets kicked out

#

you just end up with a bigger pool, which means you're less likely to get an indivudual god

#

1/5 instead of 1/4

umbral whale
#

And from what you said hermes doesnt count in the pool?

lone kernel
#

Correct

#

It’ll give u the 5% from fam favorite

#

but the four god pool thing doesn’t apply to hermes

umbral whale
#

So total i can get 25% damage buff from that

#

Which makes it so with eris im always doing double damage at that point

lone kernel
#

Yep

umbral whale
#

28 more enemies and ill have hit 20k enemies slain. I have reached over 100 runs but ive done like 20 suicide runs to offload nectar onto the gods. Hermes is the only one i have left to give nectar to

#

First two rooms. Zeus atk and jolted

heady cypress
#

Dmg boosting through the elysium boss fight was my worst decision so far lost 2 stacks of death defiance

umbral whale
#

And thats Tartarus down with 1:08.95 to spare

lone kernel
#

Yep you’re fine on time

umbral whale
#

I need to take a breather tho xD i was hardly breathing through thst run. Plus i got alecto whos my least favorite of the furies lol

dusky wedge
#

Here’s a fact: Asphodel is easier to go faster, less rooms

heady cypress
#

Are Hades attacks getting bigger in his 2nd phase?

#

The shadow died due to a falling turtle??

#

The devs really are creative..

vapid narwhal
#

You should see the Aphrodite related oneshadesmile

lone kernel
#

You’ll know it when you see it lol

heady cypress
#

Do you pay to change the decorations or do you pay to unlock the decorations?

vapid narwhal
#

Just unlock

#

After that you are free to change

heady cypress
#

Btw how do you get nectar fast?

#

I can't farm keys or other resources since I still need them

#

Wait no

Damn i got a 17:49 with Excalibur

#

vapid narwhal
#

Once you have all weapons and unlocked all mirror talents feel free to trade away keys

#

Maybe keep a couple in case you want to reset mirror

umbral whale
#

OK best time: 15:15.55

spare tiger
#

Hey question

umbral whale
#

And that was my first speedrun attempt lol

spare tiger
#

There's 2 hidden songs on the list and I'm not sure how to get them

#

I assume it's Good Riddance and Don't Look Back

#

How do i unlock them?

#

...oh wait

#

Lament of Orpheus is don't look back isnt it

#

Yeah it is I'm an idiot lol

#

Though there is still 2 missing songs

chrome wharf
#

one requires reaching credits

spare tiger
#

I have In the Blood

#

The ??? Songs are under Lament of Orpheus and Final Expense

#

I assume the one under Final Expense is payback mix

#

But what about the other one?

chrome wharf
#

Do you have the Final Expense remix

#

the last one is locked behind the Extremer Measures purchase

#

100 gems in work orders

spare tiger
#

Extremer measures...?

#

I have The Unseen Ones already

#

But there's MORE?

chrome wharf
#

hmm that should be it

spare tiger
#

Let me get a photo

chrome wharf
#

note that hidden songs will always be ??? until you buy them from the contractor

#

so you probably have it unlocked, just not bought yet

spare tiger
#

Ok we figured it out it's Hymn to Zagreus

Yeah lol that's dope

fiery bramble
#

You can do it

final oasis
#

I'll tell you if I do

#

I didn't.

#

Lol it was a good run too that's a shame

fiery bramble
#

He's not too bad, just stay behind him, be aware of which direction the waves are coming from, and avoid the sword swipes at all costs, I'm sure you'll get him soon. It's semi rare to get that option though good find

final oasis
#

Yeah

#

I just didn't expect it to do that much damage

#

And so I was reckless

languid wolf
#

But anyway I met demeter

#

She's chill ig dusa

languid wolf
#

Dusa is my goto pun emote now

final oasis
#

It shocked me

languid wolf
#

Hades seems like a relatively easy boss tbh?

#

I got him under half on my first try and I know I can do better

final oasis
#

I got him about half

#

Yeah he does seem simple just I was being dumb and careless and also didn't know how much damage he did

#

Im sure I'll be more careful next time

umbral whale
#

I iz making a quick video to upload of my first ever speedrun o.o

umbral whale

I got cheated on the 3rd dungeon boss thats some bull he had no health should've been dead i had lightning rod and healing on hit

weary jackal

Tfw you don’t have hitting on hit

polar marsh
#

It was a typo

#

I fixed it

weary jackal
#

I know

#

Asterius can be a pain

#

Whenever he charges, try dashing behind him over and over instead of away from him
You will not outrun him.

#

Same for jump slams
Dash behind him

crude surge
#

or ram him into a wall or pillar

weary jackal
#

If you can, yeah

mint coral
#

Or into theseus dusa

crude surge
#

I always forget you can do that

weary jackal
polar marsh
#

Theseus was the problem he cheated me out

I handled the minotaur easily since theseus is more of a problem i need to deal with him first

okay got Eris Zeus legendary in Tartarus this ones gonna be spicy

Is it that revenge duo boon

crude surge

Splitting bolt is the legendary

umbral whale

I love what happened in that speedrun lol. I summoned Sisyphus during hades just to use it and get some healing for the helluvit. Didnt hit him with it but still got the voiceline form Hades: "Was that a boulder from the sky?!"

Glad i bought the boon codex so i could get the right duo boons needed

Is there a way in game to check how many runs you’ve completed, with which weapons, etc without beating the game and going to the victory screen?

crude surge
#

Have you unlocked the adamin chamber?

neat stag
#

Seems odd that I can’t just pull up my stats

#

Ah, I just did the dream sequence in the admin chamber.

#

I assume that means I’ll be getting it soon?

crude surge
#

Yes it’s a house contractor upgrade

#

I assume they dream unlocks the option to buy it

neat stag
#

Nice, thanks!

crude surge
#

You can see your stats in there

neat stag
#

Regardless, still seems silly that I can’t just look at stats without getting that far into the game

#

Players are pretty advanced at that point getting the “true” ending

Kratos is the personification of strength, Heracles was a half god iirc

He was, until the hydra blood thing, he cast himself into a pyre and became a god like right at the end

Can you really only get Athena maxed by getting lucky AFTER a successful run and getting specific dialogue in the next run?

Cuz that is dumb and so friggin specific x.x

Twin Shot Zag bow is kinda fun tbh

#

Pretty simple, but kinda fun

limber mist
#

Random question. If I play a heat level that I’ve already completed, instead of the normal rewards, what are they replaced with? Darkness?

#

Or just crummy gems?

dusky wedge

Darkness, although a contractor upgrade lets you get gems as well too

umbral whale
# chrome wharf Owl pendant, and way too many people here need to realize that the story is not ...

I want to see the epilogue so i can trade my ambrosia for titan blood and finally upgrade my weapons so i can start going through with higher heat. Plus i dont like using Athena's buffs most of the time so i have to use a keepsake and boons i dont like just to advance the story cuz normally she never shows up for me and when shes an option for the toom theres almost always a better option in the other room

limber mist
umbral whale
#

Yeah just grab a thirst weapon and do zero heat runs

dusky wedge
#

Poseidon and dark thirst is now your best friend

umbral whale

Yeah i was about to say that too

Oh thank you guys!

umbral whale

Poseidon and take evey chaos gste you can and hope you get her resource booster

It’s the ONE think you can’t buy lol

Poseidon I’m assuming for the boon that drops random items?

Also my gf just showed me i can remap my buttons. So now my special is circle and my cast is L1

First thing I did once I started playing. Had to change my dash to RB 😂

umbral whale

Cuz dashSpecial on gauntlets was a pain in the butt xD this way i can fat thumb x and circle to do them

limber mist
#

Yea, I didn’t like where they had dash at all

#

Maybe makes sense in PC 🤷‍♂️

I like dash it was the special that was a pain xD plus i play a lot of Destiny 2 id rather not wear out my top buttons more

never seen anyone say "high heat" and "don't like Athena" in the same breath.

hearty sierra
#

Maybe Rin takes breaths in between each word, who knows

#

But yes, go ahead and do high heat! Optimizing isn't a must

reef zodiac
#

You can definitely do 32+ heat pretty easily with most aspects without using Athena. If you didn’t like Aphrodite… you’d probably have a harder time

burnt breach
#

high heat is easy, just drink a lot of water and you'll be fine

I prefer to use the rail. And the only time ive gotten something that was good for a run was rocket special athena cuz it just deflects everything onscreen instantly. Nothing else has been that good for me for how i play

#

Deflect dash doesnt help me wih how i play because i prefer heavier hitting dashes.

Hello! all! this time i watching with fire for shiled and to dashing? that crazy though to me since it not zeus who is strongest

#

I wondering this too much, with dash move twice, it keep from take damage?

I just finished a run with Chiron bow and got both Relentless Volley and Concentrated Volley hammers. I'll never be this lucky again!

polar root
lavish atlas
#

This might be a dumb question but I'm working my way through heat levels with the shield and I skipped 5. I can see this when I go back through my run records there's one at 4 and the next one is at 6, but when I put 5 heat into the gauge it tells me I need to go up to 7. Did I screw myself for extra bounties? Is there a way to fix this? Is this expected behaviour?

modern garnet
#

whenever you complete a run that's at your current heat level or higher, the heat level goes up by 1

#

you can never lose bounties by going overheat

tall lotus
#

I thinking that heat hard for to moving up, so low heat make less fighting for to monster, it low heat master!

lavish atlas
#

So theoretically I could do 8 runs at 8 heat and still get all my bounties :) That's excellent

Question…does completing a run vs dying at any point on the run “enable” whatever dialogue back at the house? I’ve maxed out everyone as far as I can and am simply waiting on good ol rng dialogue. Wondering if I can just keep immediately dying to hopefully trigger then needed dialogue.

modern garnet
#

you can die over and over, but if you use the give up button it won't give you new dialogue i think

limber mist
# umbral whale What dialogue do you need?

I’m effectively waiting on everyone’s prophecy dialogue. Every single god has full heart up until the key lock where they ask a favor, but nope no favors. It’s mind numbing at this point. Over 60hrs in, I mean I love the game but I’m not trying to spend a month on it when there are so many great games out

limber mist
umbral whale
limber mist

Right

umbral whale
#

Athena you have to get her "cleared" dialogue three times on a run after youve successfully done a run previously

limber mist
#

Trust me, I’m fully aware of ALL the requirements. I have 30 ambrosia just chilling waiting

#

They won’t allow me to give it to them

umbral whale
#

Artemis you have to just hear all of her dislogue about Callisto and how she truly trusts you, then you can ambrosia her

limber mist
#

Like I said, I know all of the requirements

#

This horrific idea to tie story elements to rng is nuts

#

I get rng with any other aspect….but not story

@umbral whale I thinking dunkmonkeys say that It done for to completioning but still not in the working

that on is the true too!

Oh gods damnit

WHY IS THE RAIL SO BAD

umbral whale
#

Ok so for Athena ik what i gotta do. Simple. Annoying, but simple

umbral whale
azure osprey
#

The attack

#

Feels so weird

#

And clunky

#

It never feels right

#

And it feels like it does 1 damage

burnt breach
carmine talon
#

the rail is incredibly based

umbral whale
#

What kinda boons are you using on it?

burnt breach
#

Eris go brrrrrrrrrrrrrr

carmine talon
#

honestly i thought it sucked the first time i used it too but then i got aspects

#

eris and hestia are both really fun

burnt breach
#

Hestia go BANGGGG

umbral whale
#

Yeah :3 i love Hestia

azure osprey
#

Why is Zeus keepsake a Rolex

umbral whale
#

And Eris is just.. godtier.

burnt breach
umbral whale
#

Ive only done one speedrun with eris and all i want to do is do more with it.

Clearing a room in 3 seconds is SOOO GOOD

carmine talon
#

yeah eris with zeus attack is super fun

umbral whale
#

I mean you basically have an attsck that does 40 damage per shot and ricochets.

#

Not quite 40 but still

#

34-35? Idk its too late for me to be doing math

#

I miss using Zag rail with a doom build tho thsts always funny just watchig bosses' health bars just chunk down bit by bit as you lay into them

The hidden aspect?

Yeah

ITS SO HARD

And time consuming

weary jackal
#

I’m missing shield

azure osprey
#

Atleast with Zeus I just used his keepsake

#

I have not used any of them in a run yet

#

(The hidden aspects)

#

But I like most of them

weary jackal
azure osprey
#

you need two dialogues for the fists

#

And there’s a chance you won’t get the Minotaur room

weary jackal
#

Same for all of them except spear

azure osprey
#

So

#

Extra annoying

azure osprey
weary jackal
weary jackal
azure osprey
#

Also out of all the hidden aspects

#

The spear feels the most punishing

#

I dislike it

weary jackal
#

It’s the only one with a downside

#

Maim making enemies do more damage might count, I guess
But -50% health and healing is dumb

azure osprey
#

It starts out as 70% aswell

#

It’s literally impossible to use without the extra health in the mirror

#

70% of 50 is barely health

What does hidden fist aspect do

#

HOW

#

Did it turn

#

Fist

#

To fort

wanton quail
#

It gives you extra dash and different movd set

forest falcon

Gives you maim on your dash special

wanton quail
#

Heavy swipes and maim on dash upper

thorn marsh
#

if u wanna know why its bad i have plenty of things

forest falcon
#

It's like doom effect

wanton quail
#

It's bad

forest falcon
#

Byt takes longer to activate

#

I like it a lot

#

I don't play on high heat yet tho so

wanton quail
#

I just don't like its move set does very little damage

stoic flame
#

its bad but not that bad that you cant use it at all

#

just in comparison to other stuff

wanton quail
#

Idk, besides the dash everything else is considerably worse with no benefit

#

To say its not that bad it would have to be like slightly worse, but its slow and has negatives, worst fists by far

stoic flame

i mean yeah, why chose hidden fists when there is

Have you tried not being killed by Charon?

boreal gale

I'll give you some tips on how to not get killed by Charon.
Avoid every attack.
Make sure all your attacks hit.

#

Foolproof plan.

ember cypress
thorn marsh
#

well if ur looking for something stronger than ME on fists u wont find it

#

but

#

ZAA works pretty good

#

ZAAP

#

zap fists

#

zeus attack and tidal dash

#

u start zeus attack because it needs alot of zeus to really really work

#

things like jolted and splitting bolt help a ton

#

then if u find natural poseidon in tart i think u take tidal dash and then u can force artemis for special or poseidon for t2 poseidon boons

ember cypress
#

yeah maybe it's because I don't have Darkness to max out God's Legacy yet (and only 2 fated persuasions rn), but last run I missed ME so I just wanted to try other builds to see if I can find something consistent

thorn marsh
#

well

#

its all RNG

#

sometimes you'll get it sometimes you wont

ember cypress
#

so ZAAP means Zeus attack, Artemis special, Artemis cast(?), Poseidon Dash?

thorn marsh
#

aphrodite cast iirc

#

i think poseidon dash is in there yes

ember cypress
#

if I don't find Poseidon in Tart, do I still go Artemis special keepsake like that image said?

thorn marsh
#

artemis special isnt as important as tidal dash imo

#

but i dont play ZAAP fists i play ME fists

#

so just go ham with the build

ember cypress
#

How often would you say you hit ME with your maxed mirror? percentage of ME runs

thorn marsh
#

idk but thats not a very good average because it gives u a % right there and its all rng

#

it would depend on how fast i get the prereqs

#

and thats RNG

ember cypress
#

Actually wouldn't maybe Poseidon cast or Poseidon call early could be an idea just to increase the odds of Sea Storm

thorn marsh
#

no

#

no not at all

#

sea storm doesnt really matter

#

but

#

u could

#

and poseidon call just loses u dps in this build

#

u can definitely take out aphrodite cast for flood shot if u want sea storm thats an option but if u see tidal dash take it

#

sea storm helps dont get me wrong

#

but taking a sea storm prereq over tidal dash is just wrong imo

azure osprey
#

I got my first companion

#

Dusa

thorn marsh
#

noice

ember cypress
#

ok I see, too greedy perhaps, I have been punished for being greedy lately, like entering Hades with entire slots with no boons because I wanted the perfect slots and they didn't come

thorn marsh

i mean u can certainly do it but get tidal dash first

I HATE HIM

JUST GIVE ME THE ASPECT

Actually, I'd like a dlc where i can play as someone else, maybe Achilles

heady cypress
#

Since someone ended my run in elysium by sending me to the Charon fight yesterday (blind) I wanted to ask if the reward is even worth it

#

I want to beat him but sacrificing my run hurts me too much

burnt breach
#

beat him later then

heady cypress
#

So it's not that good?

burnt breach
#

he gives you a loyalty card when you beat him

#

reduces the price of everything he sells (including the well) by 20% for the rest of the run

thorn marsh
#

doesnt he also give u 300 gold?

burnt breach
#

you just keep the gold you stole

thorn marsh

oh right

does anybody have a good rama build?

Yay 2 heat 33:57 windusa

if you want more titan blood, etc increase that heat

Do you get more darkness for more heat

Or is it the same amount as before

How do you get mommy's keepsake

for rama remember to tag all enemies with your special then blast away with the attack

and best hammers being twin/triple perfect shot and the one that increases damage to close enemies

@grahamstanding @frequentbeef @PrivateDivision Due to a variety of technical constraints, we were unable to implement cross-saves in the PlayStation or Xbox versions of Hades. We don't have plans to add this feature later due to those same constraints.

in the pact of punishment, what does it change if i have one heat or more

heady cypress
#

Heat is not the change itself

#

It's some kind of way to measure the difficulty

#

The handicaps you choose are the only changes

distant granite
#

i mean do i get better bounties if heat is higher

heady cypress
#

It doesn't work like that

mint coral
#

you need to add heat to get the bounties again with a weapon you escaped already

heady cypress
#

If you have at least 1 heat

#

You can get the bounties with 1 heat

#

Each weapon iirc

mint coral
#

yup, each weapon is tracked differently

heady cypress
#

After that you need to increase the heat to 2 to get more
