Go away nitro, i have you for a FEW reasons and stickers aint one of em!
It's moreso anything relating to a sticker
O
Im in a few pokemon servers so if i start typing Pikachu
I'll get stickers of pikachu popping up
I can't shut it off
And it's SO IRRITATING
Second Cousin (?)
Your reactions amuse me
This is why I like Discord.
Okay. Thank you for answering my unnecessary question, guys.
AAAAAAAHHH@spare tiger, I just read your About Me!
I'm dying
Did ya get the reference?
No
Is that a Pikachu with a gun?
@rapid forum ,When I click you, what's that little blue diamond on the right?
Hypesquad
......?
It's mostly promotional stuff but hey, neat little badge on your profile
It's just a personality quiz but it's neat
How do I take it?
You on PC?
Phone
I don't see anything in the settings so not sure
Pretty sure if you google Discord Hypesquad you'll get some hits pretty quick
sometimes i wish eris buff lasted for 1 or 2 seconds longer 
It used to lol
Think it was 8 sec before? Been a while
8 sec? i see why that was nerfed lol
still i wish it was 5 or 6 now
kinda a bruh moment when youve almost killed dad, did a dumb, and die
It do be like that sometime
Also yes, eris's buff used to be 8 secs
I like it being 4 secs tho
Make it a bit more strategic
Rather than dakka dakka all the way to victory
I assume it was 8 back in testing?
Still kinda is DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA lol
Never enough dakka
4sec makes me feel like i need to immediately shoot another bomb to absorb right after the previous one
Still the best rail aspect
Zag is
Well
Zag
Hestia is a sniper rifle and if you miss that shot somehow or it hits something like a greatshield that's a huge waste
And Lucifer is just... Bad
Gotta turn Aim Assist off if you wanna hit the fireballs consistently but it's way harder to hit anything else
Or you can leave it on and never laser your fireballs as intended
No actually i think they changed it in early 2012
*2021
Triple bomb is built for lucy
Plus super soaker runs are always fun
I think i bought all the furniture available to buy with diamonds... is there anything i should save for or should I just get the music?
I have like 14 diamonds lying around
sometimes it's hard to understand players' mindset 😦
a streamer beats the game 3 times, then set the heat too high and can't beat it, and think the game should set the difficulty for them, and feel bored O_O
lol
some people, man
I think the heat system is quite difficult to get used to overall
And the numbers on them are absurd
most people just randomly set things
well, at least average players
most viewers love to spoil everything though lol
like max heat reward in game or the story and post game etc
Malfons would be infinitely better if Zagreus could drop-kick wretches while wielding them
There is a hammer that does basically that.
Rush kick my beloved
You don't need diamonds for anything outside the work orders, so if you have everything you want there for now, buy music or trade for ambrosia/Titan blood.
There are the menu themes which you might not have unlocked in the work orders though, there's 10 diamonds needed for one of those.
about the menu theme
Oh wait, ranking up job title can suck a few diamonds
i knew u gotta buy almost everything to unlock, that does it include music?
But that's probably the last thing you should bother with.
I had themes unlocked before I bought most of my music.
But I don't know what triggered the unlock of themes.
also. In Hades room, there's that shade that took resources, haven't touched it yet, but would diamonds useful to it?
I just kept buying and it just kept working.
You know, I feel like I've beaten Charon a hundred times, and Hermes' favor just won't finish. What gives?
Switch version, if it matters.
Yeah that's the job level thing. Eventually they might want a few diamonds.
eh, maybe beat the game in 10 min? Gotta do it fast! 😄
Hermes wants you to beat him twice in a row
I did that.
Hmm
I can't seem to get Hermes' bond.
I don't know if any other criteria
Oh that's not related to the bond
Only the prophecy
u mean unlock Hermes heart to unlock Ambrosia, something like that?
I don't remember what triggers the bond.
Right. The Lambent Plume is the only keepsake that won't give me its bond cutscene, and no one seems to know what does it.
Someone said five Charon kills, but that can't be it.
Didn't you get the +20% dodge chance trophy?
Hermes' favor requires speaking with him while having the Lambent Plume equipped and max leveled to 3*. It does not matter how many stacks of its bonus you have.
wiki said
Ah.
tried that yet?
I probably just did that while trying for the dodge trophy.
could prollt try wiki suggestion over people sometimes
Yeah, I've talked to him with it a few times. Well, I guess that it's been a while. Maybe he just had so many other dialogues queued up, or maybe it was bugged. I'll give it another go.
There's rush kick
But I guess it's not as fun as drop kick
Hey, i recently got hades have gotten to the third boss fight any tips to help get through it? Im struggling on that
I'd get rid of mino first before smug face theseus
When you see a mark over your head, get behind a pillar
I know I do that, but usually i get deflect on my dash so i send it back to him
hey, just curious
are there mods out there that can tell u enemes hp?
or keep track of your atk/special/cast dmg?
Any weapon to use that is better then the other?
Also if you want, any piercing hammer upgrades can go through theseus shield
Eris rail is up there
Okay, i have all of them unlocked, usually used the spear
Achilles spear is pretty powerful, but needs to get used to
Yeah, i usually get the doom upgrade from ares for my special when I use the spear
If you still can't get it, ask for help in #h1-tech-support.
Anyone have tips for shield
I just can't get behind it
Out of my like 50 clears so far, only 1 is shield, and I wanna try beowulf
you know cast with Beo is different?
instead of shooting the redstone, it loads into the weapon, and your bull charge will cast it
some cast boons i can think of is aphro, poseidon, or dio
then, load it and bull charge for big dmg 😄
Catch the redstone on your wayback and repeat
and if you're using heat, damage control absorb initial hit well and could screw u up with first bull charge, so DC might not be a good pact choice
oh right, i think the 3 redstone is good pick for mirror, assuming u dun use DC
the special, it could stagger enemies, unlike the other shield
not really recommend too invested on special though
With Aegis, no matter which aspect you play, you have to understand that your attack speed is not as ridiculously good as it is with other weapons.
You have to actually get behind it.
However, once you understand that you can block while charging and while rushing, you're set. Just make sure not to get shot from multiple angles, and you're invincible.
Knowing good hammers helps, too. The one that turns your charge into a beam is super strong.
You're not actually blocking during Bull Rush or Dragon Rush, you get invincibility for its duration instead.
though, not sure if any particular choice for boons other than those I mentioned for cast
All of them work, but Art is the best.
oh right, for the mirror, if you're using bull charge this way, i think u could pick the first green one that increase ur dmg to undamaged char
The Switch version runs great (definitely 60fps!), and cross save is amazing. And the price of this game is pretty unbelievable for the value…I’m loving the Switch version so far!
Curse of Drowning and Sea Storm don't mix, right?
they mix
Oh, neat. Thanks.
There's the theme but i think that's it, grab your favorite songs
anyone here actually likes Lucifer over other gun aspect?
It does need another buff to be worthwhile. It's neat conceptually, just not strong enough to compete.
Mostly the fault of Eris for being busted eight ways to Sunday, though.
felt like SUPER hard to use against butterfly O_O
i do i really like lucifer tbh
i like how it explodes and if you get the triple bomb thing
its awesome
tbf, i only find it annoying vs specific enemies
idk why it gets so much hate its a pretty neat weapon its not too bad by any means
maybe the special looks small aoe?
or not explode immediately
the atk might look cool, but i dunno, enemies seem to go down slow
I like it more than Hestia and Zag
mirrorless must be super unpopular... hardly find any videos
only this youtuber tailesque
Mirrorless really isn't fun
No dash, die REALLY early, one cast...
Routine Inspection is extra nasty but at least that adds heat
Quite the experience if you ask me
i'm struggling on hell mode fresh file, but still enjoy it
Oh christ you're doing Hell Mode with no mirror?
yeah and Elysium is hard
Masochism much?
if u mean each time i die i gotta delete file to restart, then yes
That's some new levels of masochism
as i said, Elysium is hard
but the boss fight, i think only Asterius 50%> would hit me
well, Thessus spear throw + Asterius 50%>
still trying to single dash practice on no damage the fight, or take 1-2 hit at most
Okay, Hermes acknowledged my plume, now. Really had to go out of my way to trigger that.
ha guess wiki's right this time over whoever u talk to b4
u said someone told u to fight Charon 5 win straight?
I assumed as much, but it was just absolutely refusing to trigger at all . . .
Went looking for answers 'cause I was young and stupid and needed the honey.
I think there's a decent amount of mirrorless videos in the heat leaderboard spreadsheet. Also, Tailesque is a preeeeetty good person to watch for them lol so it's not exactly a waste.
Can't recall if he did mirrorless Hades aspect too. It would be something he'd have done. @vast junco ?
tailesque has videos of all weapons up too pretty much
well, it's fine, not really trying to ask for help, just might as well look on youtube if exist
lol yeah, all his mirrorless were bow
but mirorrless people mostly play ranged
impressive feat of course to try 40+
There's a challenge run tab in the spreadsheet I mentioned with at least some mirrorless runs in it.
the asatos mirrorless gy run 
does that spreadsheet show video link?
Yeah
what's the link?
Pinned in #h1-high-heat-strategies
thz, found it
oh nyan does a lot too
odd when i youtube hades mirrorless her video does not show up
youtube search can be really ineffécient
videos with not many views wont show up at all
Only Lady Aphrodite is allowed to call me "nyan".
looking at hades or guan ya spear atm
Yeah she prefers Nyannyan Meowmeow
You're being rude.
Sorry, the second n and m are supposed to be lowercase, my b
I wasn't joking.
I was, so we appear to be at an impasse.
oh right, totally forgot mirrorless still let u have hammer
should still be easier than fresh file hell mode in theory...
Depends on how much Heat you're using.
And no, don't call me meow.
My name is right there.
atm planning on 33 heat, might drop to 25
personally I think its easier bc I dont like sword
sword to deal with armored elysium and styx minions with one dash is insane
lmao tail does have an effectively mirrorless hammerless run iirc
With 2 non-hammers
lol will see
only thing i wanna avoid is hermes dash upgrade
and skelly
should be more than fair to have those limit for myself
u mean sword mirrorless?
Lol it's ambiguous. The statement applies to either mirrorless sword or sword compared to non-sword.
Can I ask something
Am I doing something wrong
After 10 runs I should be able to gift nectar to hades right
I see
it's after 10 wins
It's been 15 runs now
and then some RNG luck
More than actually
You mean wins, right?
Well wins after the ending
it should be total wins
Oh wow you ahve 15 run clears after the epilogue? Interesting
sometimes closing and reopening the game helps with rng
How i could unlock Aegis hidden aspect?
Check the pins in #h1-story-discussion
Thx
could use some help trying to get heat 32 done. made it to last boss once, depending on heat i use i normally get stuck at bull/king fight
#h1-high-heat-strategies is a better place for that. 
Have you talked to #h1-high-heat-strategies about your pact? 32 heat is much more manageable when you have a good pact
thanks
Finish the main story and then you can give him nectars
His keepsake procs on the second nectar and it swaps your call for invisiblity
Can't take call boons while you're using it
Just got hades my dudes. So far really loving it!
I’m not a great player tho. I keep dying whenever I get to boss fights
That's the game 🙂
Keep at it, and we're here to help if you have a question or something
Yes I have the question.. why this game so good

Because you can pet the doggo 
THATS THE BEST PART!!
Three headed doggo the best dog
yes i was very happy when i was allowed to pet the doggo
bc
exists

Because I can keep challenging myself by increasing the heat. Until 50 heat, everything after that just isn’t fun for me 
Daily reminder that we do not deserve Artemis and she is a truly perfect godess and best girl
Aphro permanently naked, therefore better
It took me like... 100 hours into the game to figure out she wasn't wearing a skimpy pink dress
DIsclaimer I'm gay
she is the hottest godess but not the best girl
Did that a long time ago
Idk man, being nude is part of being best
I'm seeing online that it's a problem for switch version of the game
if there was more nude i would be swayed
but its just hair bikini
Moddable
📸
We all have a nude person inside [of our clothing]
I too carry a naked midget under my shirt, yes
I am being true to the horny of supergiant character design

ye
Probably depends on your pacts and mechanics. It's a hard aspect, but it goes surprisingly fast
i played the game on xbox game pass on pc a while ago and have recently bought on steam since my subscription ran out. is there any way i can transfer my progress?
I have EM3, FO2, MM and TD3
Hmm, can you open the game at all anymore? If so you can upload to a cloud save
FO2 on Arthur before you get your mechanics up is really really hard
If you aren't precise you're just going to get stun locked and die in the middle of your combos lol
Arthur should have a poise mechanic
Or at least armor frames
i dont think so but can i go into the files and get my save from there?
Yeah, if you extract your Profile1.sav (or whatever number) that should be sufficient
ok ty
yeah i think so too
it just feels so much worse than the other weapons
its hard to play and also not the best dmg wise
lore wise or gameplay wise??
what is funniest
just put aphro atk on hestia and reload shoot spam
hair covers all of the good part, therefore worse
Eh it’s manageable
Not really that bad
I did Arthur 40 with TD3 and time wasn’t even an issue
i did it td4
You did not actually
Hair covering > wearing full hunter attire around the clock
plus, artemis is asexual
so therefore i declare dusa as the best girl
Ew
Cant say a full sentence without stuttering to oblivion
Wdym ace
i never said there was something wrong with it
asexual
ya i did actually
Who was phobic towards asexuals lol
You literally said "She is ace, therefore can't be the best"
If anything its respecting that they are asexuals
ya i did it so ez
He didnt say that
Prove it
Based on my heart
isnt dusa also ace
I think dusa just isn’t in to Zagreus I thought
Aphrodite is better regardless of asexuality
They literally said "She is ace, therefore I declare dusa best girl".
could be I just interpreted her as ace
i meant like, if you wnna base it on romance, you cant put someone who doesn´t feel romantic love at all.
tami the ace comment was in refernece to who would be best girl; which is a concept 4ppl to crush on fictional character
so wht was bein said was since she is ace she cannot be my(not me) best girl
but it doesnt rly read that way
I think they meant in a horny/dating way yea
I have literally never heard of "best girl" being used to mean that
exactly
how it mean thn
I'm out
ok
thre are several kinds of "best girl" but they mentioned aphrodite being naked so i assumed it was love based
me also as well as
ok, and?
It comes off as acephobia tbh
bruh l literally have an ace friend
Is this real
yes
why yall talking acephobia in hades-discussion lmao
It was very clearly a misunderstanding. Just move on.
:/
because mr. igobynonstandardpronouns said i was acephobic because i didn´t qualify artemis as best girl
Jesus Christ
Did you really just misgender me after checking my profile?
What a total waste of time

If this is the standard that's set on this discord I'll just leave.

Transphobia is not okay
No, that behavior is not acceptable here.
the hades discord incident begins now
My friend I think we should just slow down a bit
I don’t believe anyone was trying to be harmful
my guy the standard in discord is worse than that.

yeah stop it
oh boy
kinda facts ngl
Also, to be clear, this is a really bad defense. I want to believe that it’s a misunderstanding, but you are really using some concerning defenses. Let’s just move on
Lets stick a fork in this conversation and call it toast
Lets wrap back around to Artemis being a cute goddess
anybody ever use the eris rail with zeus attack
it's pretty based
especially if you get jolted
pro tip
no i for one think we should focus on the drama
nah, zeus attack better
I havent tried Rail yet

i have, still prefer lucifer for that tho
it is
I thought Zeus was the go to build for Eris
that would be deez
you can also do hangover eris
deez what?
wait are swears not allowed here?
The bot keeps getting mad at me when I try to say f word
wonder what the workaround could be hmm
maybe gift ambrosia
Ambrosia only for Artemis
and meg companion
Is hunters flare beowulf total crap or is it doable
Aphro attack for heart rend
And splash dash ideally
take athena attack for deadly reversal instead 
then you got a laser plus a a regular rail 
epic
Yeah it’s pretty decent
How do you unlock the hidden gun aspect
#h1-story-discussion in the pins
unlock secret spear aspect, talk to zeus
also need 5 titan blood in rail upgrades
Ok
How much darkness do you need for nyx's favor?
man I wish it wasnt such a stupid amount of darkness for the ranks
It was just the only thing I did not want to do
But i understand their purpose as just something to do if you are bored
Then don’t do it
I wish it would be possible to get the darkness back wasted about 4k there

Are their any mods for Hades?
you can check nexusmods for hades or check out the modding server pinned in #self-promotion
cool! thanks
Shield secret aspect + curse of drowning is weirdest build i've had yet to be honest
I cant see that working well with Beo at all
Unless it works
It's mostly QOL stuff
Changing Hades on a larger scale would be a huge undertaking
It was weird as all heck, but its kinda-sorta worked
mostly because i had smoldering air + ares aid
So after every bullrush the Zag turned into red and blue mess of AoE damage.
Hades was losing around 1\3 of its HP per rush easily
I just want mods that let me dress up Artemis is that too much to ask
i dunno about larger scale, but there's things i kinda hope would exist
like enemies hp, charon's higher appear rate etc
the armor vs unarmor hp is also a bit unclear to me, like those Hades minions, takes forever to take down armor, but once down they die in 1-2 hit
Does Lucifer exist in hades?
not as a char you can interact, like all other hidden aspect
Only referenced through a weapon's hidden aspect
99.9% of Hades is Greek
Things in the future are referenced though, like Beouwolf. I like how they wove those in.
Oh
i dun think Beouwolf myth origins from Greek?
they said that future
the dialogue when u fought Hades with Beo first time right?
that's in the future, the aspects are referenced as from the past and future multiple times. Yes, Beowulf is not a Greek story, it's from England, written in the 11'th century
Idk what happened, I was lvling my keepsakes for the achievement and my pb went from 14:37 to 11:05 within 4 runs or sumn was using 9 heat
i see. i just thought they referenced from other culture or non-greek myth.Thx
Just beat hades with spear with 8hp remaining
That was stressful
Maybe I should just stick to gun and bow
I specifically do not like playing Flurry Jab or Hera because of this lol
I live in perpetual fear that I'll get Fully Loaded or Hermes' legendary and my fingers will fall off
And with flurry jab i'm kind of just permanently pressing dash + attack for the next 20 minutes as fast as possible so that's not great.
heh wheneer i play the fists its always a sweat fest
if it helps, flurry jab and upgrades like it, as well as the fists by default, will let you just hold the attack button and not have to mash it
Yeah, I'm aware, but it gives me more granular control to press both at the same time. If I'm holding the attack button indefinitely it's kind of hard for me to transition to say, doing an empty dash for iframes.
fair, fair
as a bow main this game is absolute [tisi voice] murrrrrderrrr on my hands/wrists if i play it for too long, lmao
i never really grew out of the habit early-early-early access gave me re: artemis's old dash :')
so i spend like 90% of the time dashing before every. single. attack. i know i shouldn't but it's such a hard habit to break,,
Yeah I get hand pain from Zag bow for sure
Lol I don't think this habit is that bad. I probably intentionally standing attack with any bow like once or twice an entire run
it is bad when i end up with hurty wrist ;-;

Can a chaos room be the room before the boss?
when offered 3 ares/athena in elysium but no ME
can be before end shop. in which case end shop will be after it so you get another free chamber
really good due to the free chaos but a little risky having a curse into the boss
kind of phenomenal for attack based crit builds or cast builds though
room 13 Chaos is just like, the best feeling lol
The hardest choice for me is always chaos vs duo boons
trials you mean?
The ones with two gods yeah
Yeah. If my timer is fine that is often a really hard choice. If timer is not fine, blegh, Tartarus trials have a huge variance lol. Could spend 2 minutes killing one armored Thug at a time forever
I don't think I can go above the first level of the timer since I like to do a run around of the room to make sure I'm not missing anything and I feel like the timer penalizes that but I also feel awful knowing I might be missing out on Chaos or a health trove lol
Just keep playing, you'll get more comfy with it. I think hitting comfy TD2 should be a reasonable goal for anyone, it's just a mechanics check, and you have plenty of time even then to do the things you mentioned
Even at 50 I'm not skipping Trials I want or gold troves (if I don't think they'll kill me lol) with TD2
Playing with a deadline helps give you motivation for playing more efficiently too
probably close to 1500 hours in and I still hate playing with TD3. A lot of people like it but for the reasons you mentioned, I like making sure I have everything and I get to pick rooms I really want to do.
wish gem troves are more useful in late game though
so happy to see there's those who does not enjoy TD lol
my first Zag bow 32 was AP2 TD0 lmao
my issue with TD3 is not having to play fast and take free rooms whenever possible
it is the fact that tartarus just becomes painful
just give me an onion reward in the end if i fail TD
Ely TD3 makes me cry
if TD just gives u trash reward, i'll take it
Yeah I might try TD once I get a bit better, I feel good just slowly pushing up the heat with all my weapons for now
it would become free heat once you're used to it
well, at least, i guess until high heat?
High heat where you start doing JS and CP
TD3 is an issue in tartarus (and styx with EM4)
is CP1 bad for TD3?
and cry as enemies just won't die
hell mode force u to always have CP1
just wondering if hell mode means the TD's always very bad vs normal mode
if people tend to avoid CP and DC
well CP obviously doesn't help
👀
usually youd start picking up cp and js at or beyond 40 heat with td3
how bad it is depends exactly on the weapon you are using
I think Hell Mode's only utility is basically the question of "Is it worth it to you to play with CP JS to have 1 more heat total?"
So if your pacts would naturally include at least CP JS it's free lol
oh right, those both
could be a reason why the heat run i did with TD were frustratin
sure, when u go for real, and purposely play around TD, it's easier
but even casually, hell mode would always give u those
so yeah... not liking TD one bit
What was in the latest patch?
Kind of a funny happy coincidence that we really arbitrarily decided 50 is the cool kid number for very high heat, and you need Hell Mode to be able to do EM3 JS3 CP2 RI2 AP1 TD2, which is probably the most... consistent (?) pact? It's not the easiest, but it's the one that has the least likely chance of screwing you to RNG
when u say need hell mode, u mean that 1 exclusive point help u raise it to 50?
No Hell mode means you need to pick either EM4, AP2, or TD3 womp womp.
Yeah that pact is 49 heat without hell mode
and hard to put that one point to somewhere?
is that with or without DC?
man RI2
i see
Lol, "easy" is relative. It's still 49 heat LOL.
But not having to pick AP2, EM4 or TD3 is a huuuge help
Man having Aphro's greater call target a skull instead of Hades is such a bad feeling
well, when i said fresh file normal is easy compare to hell mode fresh file
🇫
But I'm personally super sensitive to resets. When I start a run I want to be able to finish it if I play well. Feels bad if random garbage happens too many times.
someone did take it as i said fresh file is easy
Most people would much rather deal with TD3 with JS0 CP0 and be okay with sack resets or bad tartaruses
Hell mode too, real gamer
to be fair
once u invest on normal mode, u probably won't switch
unless u wish to give up all the darkness/gem u unlock
I have both just to bounce around for fun
it was miserable doing everything again in 1.0 but kind of cathartic I guess, hearing all the dialogue and stuff again
i give up playing normal mode file pretty early
always a trip switching from hell to normal and going "oh yeah Chthonic Vitality actually heals 3HP per room"
lmao, right?
I have decor and themes set up so that I know at any point in the game which save I'm on
It's kind of funny, I would probably yolo LC0 runs a lot more often if not for the fact that I can't. And with LC1, since Vitality only heals 2, it's like, well, I may as well just go LC4 I guess, f it.
oh right
I played most of my normal file in English and switched to Chinese for the whole of hell mode pre-credits to keep that part fresh
normal file I played up to first escape in Chinese bc I was showing some of it to my mother who's not great at hearing english
nice to see.. basically all of the localization bugs I found patched out
does the Chinese version of the game still have the Patroclus bug?
what's that
You'll see it in every Chinese heat run lol, you're only given 2 options for Patty, so if you want Touch of Styx Dark you need to leave the game, switch to English, pick the first option, then go back to Chinese
using another persons safefile for running heats in hellmode is also an option so u dont have to grind again
lmao nah there's no bug there
That's good. It was always mega janky to see people have to do that for leaderboard runs lmao
leaderboard wants people to not quit, right?
Right, we had to make a rule exception for that one situation lmao
yeah record in one go
wouldn't that mean chinese version would have a harder time than others? assuming only chinese version did it
yeah when I got into it, it's mostly only typos and kinda off dialogue translations
Shrug, it was a known bug so it's not like "a harder time." It's a tedious step but yeah
Once we were made aware of it people adjusted both on our leaderboard here and on speedrun.com
yeah time pauses in that room so it'll only affect RTA
was the option there but not selectable, or just not there?
Yeah, of course, but I'm saying people just looked the other way with that one exact scenario because it was a known bug
kinda convenent it just happens at the turning point lol
And honestly, it's basically impossible to track if someone actually save state + splices footage perfectly, and there's no money in any of this, just bragging rights and people pushing personal metagames so we're not overly concerned with cheating prevention.
well, a certain breakfast food cares O_O
yeah like it seems pretty easy to splice a death into a seeded run, no?
mmmm, that is a bit harder to do. you have meta resources that show up between runs
darkness, gems, etc.
and if u pay attention to the ambient sounds
you can give up and splice at the transition from Zag's room to the courtyard
i think the whole run should have sounds on
do we know what the latest patch is about
are there even moments that's complete silent?
if there isn't anything in the patch notes channel it's mostly minor fixes
As I said, out of practicality, we don't really concern ourselves with perfect cheating detection. It incurs more suffering than it actually helps anything
sometimes SGG twitter talks about it
It's kind of toxic to expect every video you watch to verify might have cheating in it too
Just not a great mindset
i wish they would document these patches better :x
as i said, a certain breakfast food loves that O_O
I don't understand the reference lol
was it about that long argument sometime ago on whether that routed 64 was "cheating"
well, we will see
but not that lol
he will prolly speak again when i finish hell mode clear
which country's breakfast food though
very important
mcdonald sells it, at least
This feels similar to a sphinx's riddle lol
muffin?????
yeah i wonder, but u could put that thought on hold for now

oh lol, it's like, not even remotely close to a secret you two have massive irreconcilable beef with each other you don't have to be cryptic about it LOL
that's why I just block on the first sign of hostility lol
i usually just get the popcorn
hm breakfast foods
Though I somehow found myself in the middle of a pointless hour long argument yesterday about Doom Rama somehow lol so clearly I'm not immune.
I used to be a That Guy kinda person so now I just bail out of convos like that
best breakfast food is dumplings
how do complete strangers create massive irreconcilable beef between each other over a videogame
check their chat history with each other LOL. poetry in motion.
is it just a matter of "unbreakable shield vs spear that can pierce anything" but with people
Sorry alma, I'll behave :3
Lol
i would prefer that people not encourage arguments between members of the server
no popcorn allowed 
👍
Not even to give to the supporting shade, darn 
"wars were started over much less" - Persephone
i'm a bit confused with the "Olypmians would start a war if they found out Persephone is with Hades" part
sorry for extremely late response that probably doesn't matter now but i don't think i ever uploaded a hades spear mirrorless
i might've done a 40 heat mirrorless with it at some point but probably not recorded
thank you 
Must have been some number of light years away 🦊 🚀
but was looking for mirrorless video at the time for spear, so we evetually mentioned u
no worries though, i got what i want, so it's all good for now
ah gotcha
for now
ominous
lol
depends on when i start RI4, i might have more questions or complain lol
one of the biggest pieces of advice really is that you pray for hermes to be nice and give dashes
ah that one is out
Discord drama got me to play Hades again and enjoying it lol. Need to get back to up speed so I can take up Schad's mantle doing dumb Rama runs
Did a 50 Curse of Agony seed yesterday
i plan to not take skelly and hermes double dash
"how do I learn this power?"
oh no
How do I max friendship with artemis
End it with Mudakar
talk to her a lot
wait for certain dialogues where she mentions Callisto the Nymph
i think hermes dashes are fine for mirrorless; it's not like you're running fresh file, which sounds closer to what you want out of mirrorless
after giving her some nectar
Rama is really really really good. Curse of Agony was there for memes it may as well have been nothing.
yup. Rama won my third 32 heat, probably my second favorite bow aspect
Actually nothing would have let me use Shackle, so yeah Curse is a downgrade from empty slot
it's really powerful
do you try to power shot much on Rama or just do whatever you can
It's super case by case lol, that's a lot of why it's hard to learn
A lot of learning Rama is just learning the enemies. Their downtime, their effective threat ranges, etc.
You can usually get a free shot off if you time your dash during their attack and start charging during the recovery
This is a lot easier said than done obviously
so, I'm guessing for the special, you try to get it on as many enemies as you can then focus one until they all die?
Then you get to Tail level positioning where you know enemies have to converge a little bit onto your position but you're safe so you can get safe multi-hits on Rama's attack, which is pretty much always good enough to clear entire packs in one go
great vs Jury summon, yes?
like all the sword/spear/shield guys love to stick together
Yeah Rama is one of the only aspects that does more single target damage with more enemies
isn't 100% 50 heat runs won't have RI4? lol
Yeah, the special debuff is 7 seconds long, and charging is about 1 second, so conservatively for repositioning usually it's fine to special for 3-5 seconds, but sometimes less if you need to clear the room
Tail did 50 mirrorless
round up to 100%
lmao fair
I think @vast junco probably agrees with me that people who play Rama do not special enough between attacks
change of topic, what are yall's favorite boss
3rd phase dad is lit
Hades for sure, worst is butterfly
EM4 dad
second phase is actually fun but doggo is so scurry and random
butterfly is either incredibly short or painfully long depending on your build
hades with a gun = EM5
I used to be Hunter Dash gang with Rama until I started practicing EM4. Now I'm a Divine Dash casual again. Butterflies are the worst.
DD saves DD's
me knowing acorn isn't optimal for em4 but too lazy to level up spearpoint 
goodest boy needs to take a nap after his walk
bestest boi needs rest
Lol Charon is such a cool feature they put in the game but they didn't really do the greatest job of making it... appealing to do
300 won't pay for two KOS's
it's like fighting Akuma in recent SF, cool boss, why do I want to fight him
really? i think he's unique enough to stand out from other chars
other than bragging rights ig
Besides just dying even if you're good at the fight, Charon is a beefy chungus that takes a ton of time to kill, and usually the room you're skipping for Charon is miniboss, so you're missing that fast room + rare boon
you lose a possible duo/legendary for 20% off
Is the membership card permanent?
for the run
yeah
doesn't Charon fight drop you into the miniboss room when you're done?
but when you die it goes away
nope
it did that to me
Unless the miniboss room would be +2 past the midshop
no, he drops u to a random room
Which is not terribly likely
not unless the next room after the mid-shop was miniboss
beat me to it
yeah I always get dropped into Asterius at Elysium Charon
it could happen, but not always
O no
Elysium Charon feels like rolling poopy dice lol. So little time to even benefit from it
I have no death defiances against Elysium bosses
EM3 Asterius whenever I play a slow aspect
he just keeps running
he never stops
i took it for boonless at one point
They improved it, but before if you used an invincible call, Asterius would just start doing terrifying tight loopdy loops in the middle of the room then continue chasing you after the call ends
w h y
In general you should be looking for situations where you can "Ole!" bull-sempai into a wall or pillar (pillars are a LOT harder)
he would stop after like 5-10 sec after non-stop running
EM3 Asterius charge is my least favorite boss attack in the game~~ unless I'm playing shield~~
try put on FO2
no
Can I just beat the game with gun 10 times?
you don't even need to do that
well, if you want the bounties
yeah they didn't mention bounties
and?
but when I want pash dash, she makes me roll 3 times
pash dash is fine, but infuriating when I'm offered it 20 times on a build where I need literally anything but her dash
how... often could you possibly want passion dash lol
fists w/ low tol, curse of nausea, splitting headache, and heart rend
it's in #h1-victory-boasting somewhere
oh my, i deigned to suggest that an aphrodite buff is suboptimal in any given situation. I know better than that.
big words to say "I almost said an aphro buff was less than good" 
*crocodile noises in the distance
How many weapon aspects have cleared max heat?
1, Zeus
Actually?
cgull was in the process of making a route for Rama for Tailesque to do but I think he lost interest in the project
I have expected the bow to have that honor
Shields get free mobility and free... not getting hit by things, so it works out
I have no doubt a route could be made for Rama to complete it but someone actually has to... make the route. And Tailesque would still have to execute to complete it lol. Lots of ifs there
Max heat on another weapon is dead in the water for now?
Ok so i went to see if there was any max heat dialogue
Someone beat Charon at max heat
In Tartarus
just dont get hit once in like 3 minutes. ez
Should i send the video?
yeah pls
Charon got mad at us after we beat him so fast to show off for speedrunners, so he upped the difficulty a little bit...
00:00 Faffing about in the house
00:18 Grinding through Tartarus
03:14 Charon Fight
Sorry the video cuts out regularly, this was streamed to Twitch and my upload speed is truly terrible.
lol, cgull memed about that for a long time. So many of those heat points do not apply to that speedrun
when no em5 for charon
Even if 10 points dont apply it's still imprrssive isn't it?
i think if u just remove TD, u could still try for similar experience, if Charon is the goal
More like 50 something of them, but yes it’s definitely still impressive
Maybe depending on how you look at it. 10 from EM, 6 from TD, 2 from UC...
Still impressive but the meme was max heat for a 3 minute run lol
Oh wait is it a Charon speedrun?
Yeah
Ohh ok
hello i would like to do a French version of Hadès whith friends voice-actor just for fun, can i use Fmod studio for that ? i suppose the accord is important ? if anyone can help me ? ^^
LOL fellow Frenchman @full nexus also weirdly wanted to do this very specific thing as well
I think he called voicing Aphrodite though
(sorry, don't know how to help)
you might want to try asking in the modding server. an invite is pinned in #self-promotion
i'm from this server yet ^^ , and i found how to extract voices from Vo.fsb but i don't how to repack .wav to new Vo.fsb, and i don't know if this change is legal ^^
Wait Hades isn't dubbed in French?
hades only has english
Huh.
most of the voice acting was done in studio, up until the pandemic
voice acting is also expensive, moreso if you want to add additional languages
anyway the modding server is full of a bunch of folks that work on various hades mods and are better suited to assist with the voice issue
Good point
hmmm i'll find myself, i begin Fmod tutorial for that lol
i love charon keepsake lmao, bringing 2 braid of atlas to dad fight
If I fight Charon, do I still get sent to the next chamber that was previewed in the shop or could it be another one?
It will be a different one
also cant chose what room
Which is pretty stupid imo
Oof then I guess I'll be skipping the fight lol
Charon is fun though
fight charon then plopped in front of high heat asterius lol
I usually fight Charon in my low heat fun runs
The fight and card isn't worth the health loss and god trial room xD
I never fight high heat Charon though. Takes too long
yeah. not a great idea
the fight isn't that hard. he's just hard hitting.
his paddle has same damage as hades spear
and has almost as much hp as a dad phase 
the big problem is usually at phase 2-3 when he summons those purple skull and overlap with his paddle
question
if u guys see 5 greatshield + hp and speed perk, do u just feel like giving up? XD
Always
What weapon
And why 33? I see you play at 33 a lot but I don’t really get why. Just to be 1 heat better than everyone who runs at 32?
cost 2 DD to just clear these kinda room XD
and THEN the next room is still 5 shield O_O
the RNG is relentess sometimes
speeder teleporting mini chariots
sometimes i think maybe 2 armor perk is worse than 1 armor perk + FO1 lol
Interesting you dont have both maxed out
What do you usually run?
just trying out random perk lol
but USUALLY i dun use sword a lot
with posideon sword though armored perk enemies like shield and sword give me huge problems
very hard to get the cast back without charging in
and well, 5 greatshield, gl getting ur cast back XD
hp and speed perk
just such situation
Aspect of Poseidon is so fun, then the greatshields come in with JS and you die
what heat?
33
then why not use SD
when you start losing DD's to rooms, try SD with Touch Of Styx from the well, or Touch of Styx Dark from Patty
increases your HP per SD
i would prolly pick SD and when i use LC4,
Elysium rng has alot to do with that
LC4 w/ dd sounds like such a pain
and yeah, Patty RNG is still rng
Shields make it hell but those witches are so easy
the witches die to a single reflect
but for real
(if you have athena)
if those are not speed, i prolly would have a bett3er chane
Ares DM+Zeus Shield+doom on both attacks, epic level 5 on normal and normal level 2 on special+epic hyper sprint+deflect dash+Blue Greatest Reflex+ice wine=flattening the entire damn run

just do lc4 with hestia and sell all your boons. ez gold for dd refills 

Two sources of doom is really bad 99% of the time
didnt get athena attack/special for ME?
No, actually
I had Blue Dire Misfortune with Zeus shield, I felt like I had to, and god it paid off. stubborn defiance didn’t activate against hades for the first time.
ME would be a lot more dmg tbh, especially with that greater relfex and divine dash
Plus I saw Athena super late into the run, and by then I already had double doom, so not like it would’ve worked anyways
well keepsakes ya know
Probably, but the dopamine rush from the idea of having lots of doom with DM made me give in
impending doom too couldve been pretty funny
What is DM?
Agreed. Would’ve been hella funny
Dire misfortune
Oh 
That boon would need to do at least double what it does now for me to literally ever consider using it
well its 3 heat? anyways, dont need a super optimal build
exactly, it's 3 heat lol
Yeah, I’m just having fun for now
True
But DM just feels bad
It’s impossible to build around because it doesn’t actually do anything
DM has anti-synergy with the best doom boon in the game 
Eh I wouldn’t call it anti-synergy
Since DM doesn’t actually reward you for applying doom twice to the same enemy
It just gives you a pitiful amount of damage to attempt to make up for the damage you’re losing by not waiting before applying doom again
Why of course it has synergy, more time for you to apply extra dooms!
so exciting
I think they meant Merciful End
Oh
I can see why that's confusing, ME is a duo, ID is an Ares boon
it's synergy, not amazing synergy, but synergy nonetheless i guess
I wish DM was replaced with a boon that helped the doom build instead of a boon that does nothing
Eh, I’m no 32 heat god but i still like seeing DM when I have things like aspect of Lucifer or ID
it's meh
Having only 1 T2 for doom builds is kinda bad tbh
wish it was better
Meh is definitely an understatement
there are two though
And what is a 32 heat god?
32 heat is god?
No, there’s 1 T2 and one worthless piece of garbage that unfortunately becomes available when you take a doom boon
Hell no, I’m just saying I’m not the best
It can’t hurt and it’s useful w impending doom but ares is mid tier
Skelly might just be a 32 heat god considering the unveiling events
You
why is 32 heat so popular
Skelly beat 64 heat while alive so Charon made him Zagreus' training partner but couldn't tell him to actually train him
Ok, I thought you did like, 50 heat or something like that
new headcanon
I did, got my second 50 today
But why does that make me a 32 heat god?
50 is a lot more than 32
And I’m definitely not a god at 50
Nor at 32
skelly gives you a funny decoration from doing it
I mean like your mega good at the game, as in 32 should be a cakewalk
what's 50 24
Yeah true, it is
