Wow
the World jf adhd wasnt so Bothersome
So far I've still been enjoying not looking anything up. But I know there'll come a time
There can only be three fake bobs, so the fourth bob is always real if the first three were fake. And from what I can tell, fake bobs have an interval of 2-5 seconds while the real bob has an interval of 1-2 seconds. So if it takes more than 2 seconds, it should be a fake bob. Meaning you should look for the real bob within a short time after you start fishing or within a short time after a previous fake bob.
Your hash icons aren't default for either IGT or RTA, hence my question. 
Time to wear the Poseidon keepsake and buy those lures when I see em
I think they might be default for rta
Even if you're fast I think it's still 50/50 if it'll be rare or not
Yeah :/
yeah, i tinker with the settings all the time
but its via that one modpack
i can send u screenshots if u want, but i'm not really sure what your question is
beyond "whatever mods lando picked that run"
You can pick default rulesets on it tho
It was a real pain to install, the guys on modding discord helped a lot. Lmk if anything else u need, happy speedrunning
No, I know how the mod works. Don't worry about it. 
Fought Hades for the first time he hits like a truck
four left https://imgur.com/RDKwUKf
Hmm?
Grats on reaching him! It definitely took a few attempts before I realized what abilities would be useful and what to watch out for.
you randomly had a 40 heat run a few weeks ago without customs on
it was like...damn, that's dedication to not feeding one's self to 🐊
Oh, I was just doing EM4 runs.
Word. Try Aphrodite’s aid I hear it can be helpful
So how do I deal with hades now that I fought him? I was doing well and brought his life pretty low until I dead to one of those enemies who send a shockwave when killed
You’ll get better just by playing. Now you know what to look for and how to dodge
so next time you’re better prepared to win
well you want to destroy those skulls before they explode for one
Also that
the green skulls send a shockwave when not killed
if the timer on their head expires and theyre alive
i don’t understand the speedrun board
what about it is confusin ya?
is it like
the people at the bottom had the fastest time in the past
or it’s just like a leaderboard
leaderboard
thank
Hey how do I get the locked heart for meg?
||i think it has something to do with her sisters|| but you could try the wiki
np
Bro one of my friends got to the Elysium on his third run with Cursed Slash Zag Sword 
cursed needs thick even more
with healing u need some max hp so u dont get one shot and have time to heal it all back
Why is there a locked heart for Hermes?
need to do his favor to finish it
what weapon should i use / upgrade to get my first clear
whichever is most fun for u
i think its between the shield and the gloves
shield is considered pretty noob friendly because of the block so that works
The shield has been the most reliable one for me. Not the fastest, but all I need is that Daedalus upgrade that turns bullrush into a piercing shot and the rest is 🍰
That is very safe as a build.
beating first boss on different weapons
Furries at a guess
thats 1 too many r’s 
wait so there are different aspects to each weapon and each aspect has different levels
Yup
yea, try to buy aspect which are decent at low level
which one do u recommend for shield
aspect of zues is a good one
its good at low level if u get something like zues or dionysus special on it
try to get a win with that cuz until u start winning u dont get much blood
ill try to get to those two guys again
btw its been 7 months since i last played and i came back today
Welcome back
i got electric shot from the start i like that one
ty
if im running zeus call and have aphro attack and smair, and i get a zeus boon that offers double strike and jolted, which do i take
idk take the one with higher rarity
I say d.strike cause even with smair you arent applying jolted that fast
i second d strike cuz u wanna open splitting bolt
I would avoid hard labor for a while, extra damage is one of the harder boons. Start with feeling comfortable with tight deadlines
The pact that makes mini bosses have extra moves is basically free because there are few mini bosses and they're generally easy, especially with megs companion
Ok I’ll try that at the next heat level
If the first boss fight becomes very easy to you and you never die, then do Extreme Measures 1
It makes the first boss harder, but then you're free for the rest of the run
Hard labor makes the bosses hit very hard
You basically want to put it on once you get hit rarely
That should be good for your first 5 heat or so ! GL
Idk where to ask this, but are there any news about Zagreus figurine?
Umm, figurine? Like his clothes?
is Extreme Measures the only modifier with story stuff?
Well, I guess that supergiant has something at their page. I'll check tomorrow for you
I will be thankfull, cause all i have seen was news from may 2021 and nothing more.
Prophecy, you mean?
If I'm not mistaken, there's another prophecy besides the Sea Gods Spite
I mean Pact of Punishment
Oh, right. Then I guess is the only one
If I play on 1 heat does it also unlock the 0 heat bounties?
No, you get the bounties of 0 heat and then can do another 1 heat run for the 1 heat bounties
Oddly no
But also you can have zero heat unfinished on a weapon and a non zero heat run unfinished.
So zero heat is slightly special but not in a way that matters much
Yeah 0 heat bounties can be skipped
@polar quail if you want to do a non default sword aspect run, I recommend Poseidon aspect with a big crush shot cast
poseiden is kinda like a worse achillies
Yeah but they said they wanted a sword run
The only sword I go with normally is Arthur
Poseidon is great if you hate the sword 
But I doubt they have it yet
Like me
So when you beat hades and reach Greece for the first time do the gods really not know when it happened? I beat hades and I’m barely getting any mention of it when I get a boon
Then pick your favourite other weapon and go a farming
Sounds good, I’ll do another eris rail run
There are some prophecies which drop a bunch of Titan blood too
Might be worth clearing one of those if you're close
There’s the one for clearing with all infernal arms
Reaching the surface only
Oh really?
I don’t think I’m close with the others but I’ll check after this run
If it says "escape the realm" then you only have to get to Dad
nope !!!
Yup it said reach surface
I don't remember the exact conditions for the one with all weapons
I can get ten titans blood from it
There you go
I’ll do that after I do farming since I’m not sure I’ll reach it with the base sword
Wow, so rumors no reach them?
Just grab splash dash and ignore sword
nopeee theyre not supposed to jnow or theyll get suspicious yk
i dont know if they can exactly See that too but idrk
Or
It's explained in dialogue
There are plenty of cast builds or dash builds where the weapon doesn't matter much
Splash dash, flood shot, Zeus on call, sea storm, double strike and jolted
And razor Shoals
Or Dionysus cast, Scintillating Feast, splash dash etc..
On zero heat a dash only run is quite doable
Just get smoldering air
On Poseidon call
Then you don't have to attack again 
I did that for my first fist clear cause I didn't know how to fight with them, never attacked 
Or even just do dash strikes
Just get double edge. Tidal dash should still let it hit right?
But yeah tidal dash + tier 2s or even duos is enough dps especially if it's just base aspect of zagreus sword
Just pom your dash a lot
4-6 is usually the end and breakpoint but a common tidal dash may need a little more.
Epic and its easy
Like tidal dash makes Styx rooms, not the big rooms as much, ridiculously easy and quick
Get Breaking Wave and Typhoon's Fury and enemies will pinball to death in room corners
Razor Shoals for bosses mostly
It's the easiest dash build
And Elysium. Most enemies there run around a lot, so RS is really effective
Yeah true
All bosses move around a decent bit. Except maybe the Furies oddly
Ig because they're the first boss
A good RS will actually do a LOT of damage
RS plus jolted from sea storm is devastating in Elysium
And Hermes for extra damage on splash dash
I’m at the midpoint of asphodel and I only have 2 boons
Are they good ones?
Rip
So hope for sea storm from either of them
Ok
Not necessarily rip. What did you get instead? Health? Non core boons
Yes health.
Razor Shoals and sea storm are priorities probably in that order. Splash dash too or any good dash at this point
Don't hold out for a perfect build forever
As long as I make it to the surface I can get ten titans blood so hopefully this works out, im kinda running out of time but I got 4 minutes left so it should be fine
Stygian blade is..not my favorite weapon
Me neither in default aspect
Yeah
Remember to switch keepsakes after hydra
Sea storm appeared
Also maybe skip hammer room for gods you want at this point since you're betting on cast
Yay
Now you can take advantage of double strike and jolted
On your cast
Take Poseidon dash if it appears now
Tidal dash appeared
Nice. It's late but it's coming together. Now focus on 2nd tier Zeus or Razor Shoals.
Let’s hope I don’t die to tight deadline though, I have 1:50 left, this went much slower since im not used to using Stygian blade
Now you're just dashing everywhere. Put the weapon away.
Ok
Razor Shoals and jolted will make the build really viable now.
Hermes might even bless you with an extra dash or more speed (damage of splash dash depends on speed)
Well, and casting
I was so close to losing that I lost all my dds and got to really low health
But I did it
Replenished one
To Elysium or out?
Pretty much but take what you can tbh since it's still underpowered
Putting something on attack or special still opens up tier 2 boons and duos
So don't take unwanted coins over gods
I skipped the hammer and I got Demeter room. Frost strike, flourish, or ravenous will?
Ravenous will is the one that boosts when you have no casts?
If it's rare or epic, take that tbh
It’s common
Urgh, probably flourish then.
Slows enemies slightly in an area
And does a bit of damage
Whichever is rarer of the others then
Lightning strike, static discharge, or high voltage? Probably the first but I just want to be sure
Hang on, why do you have TD on for getting out first time with sword?
Static discharge
Ok in hindsight that was probably a bad idea
100% static discharge once you have sea storm on a wet build
That's just free damage to everything you go near
I’m just trying to make it to the surface for the titans blood reward so I probably should’ve turned it off
You know that the heat thing is different per weapon right?
You can be 20 heat on one and be getting rewards on 2 heat for another
If you get razor shoals or a good double strike or Zeus legendary you can probably get out altogether
... the suspense is killing me 
Good luck!
Pat wasn’t there unfortunately
Killed them just as I was about to take deadline damage
Wooot
Remember your call too. Zeus call is best used in small chunks rather than waiting for it to get full
Yeah I used him during the battle
Yes
I think you might be sorted then, for getting to Dad at least
I think that’s my first time not losing a dd to that fight actually
Pom things like static discharge as they scale well
Splash dash too
If you didn't get razor shoals yet, that's the biggest missing piece
But double strike also really good
I got cold fusion
No razor shoals yet
I was able to replenish one dd
Do I roll for razor shoals? I found the sack
Oh wait it’s Poseidon
You mean go another tunnel?
Yeah there’s no Poseidon anywhere I think
Billowing strength, double strike, or lightning reflexes?
Double
Billowing is okay but you're betting on constant jolted damage
Yay!
Good luck!
(note to self, it'd be hilarious if this was 10th Dad fight)
Defeat dad by dashing through the snow
YO I WON
See, stygius is best weapon after all 
He kept taking damage from the chill, lightning and dash at once
Synergistic combos are the key
My very first streak of two runs in a row
Well, congrats and I'm of to bed now. Save some of that Titan blood btw, there are some hidden aspects you'll want to use later
Goodnight!
Hello
I have my first win as well
Congratulations
Remember to post a screen shot
Just so y'all are aware, in 30 minutes or so GDQ is starting their Hades race, All Weapons run between cgull and tounis.
Which is bound to be awesome so check it out.
is there a way to check your win streak?
oh lol
Let’s go I have 12 titans blood now
Idk what I’m going to use it on but I’m done playing for today
See you all tomorrow
Cgull got full ME setup (tart) in the race rn 
It's nuts.
Ayyy you guys did it!
I’m on a 5 win streak 30 something runs in
But not playing tonight I’m 4 gin and sodas in
Boutta be Dionysus vs hades if I play
They are just tearing the game apart ❤️
How do you sign up for these races?
this
lol
Siiick y’all gonna see me there sometime
Imma be the first person to speed run the game while taking a pee
i kinda wanna try that tbh
Give it a run
I think it’ll break tos so I can’t do it on stream unfortunately lmfao
Good rooms beat good builds more often than not anyway in races.
And tounisu beats everyone more often than not.
Does cpu run faster than console generally?
InfiniDD, they get penalty time if they lose SD but run doesnt end
Ah good to know
It was one of the changes
Racing safety
i didnt see any other players
is there a lobby? guys
a lobby that i can see other players?
it's a party in the speedrun server
@chrome wharf what do RTA and IGT stand for
Real time attack (ie irl time) and In-game time (use the in built timer)
why is "attack" in a measurement for time
time attack is a synonym for time trials
anything that involves going for the fastest time
just started using aspect of hera recently, having a ton of fun 😌
using aphrodite cast
My favorite so far is nemesis
Very funny big numbers
Zag bow does the same but less often
I wanna max out poseidon and do some funny cast only runs
gods legacy or pride?
if you really need a specific duo boon for the build to work, god's legacy, if not god's pride all the way
~~merciful end||
I honestly don't remember the last time I got offered ME.
I kinda gave up on Ares after a while
Yeah, Ares has good boons for magical damage, but at some point those are the least important to survive a run
Unless the build is focused on special attack and high damage over a few secs
I like battle rage on Arthur
Doing a crit with battle rage on the 3rd strike of Arthur's combo and taking it 6 enemies in Elysium from full health to nothing is so satisfying
Never tried this. I'll put on a note
I'm switching weapons constantly to complete the prophecies
It's more reliable with Artemis on attack, but Aphrodite gives bigger base damage and you can aim for Hunter's Mark
So Aphrodite attack, Artemis special and Hunter's Mark and Battle Rage
Hunters is insaaaane. Got my first try today, precisely to the duo boon prophecy
Hit with special and plough through everything with an attack combo
Got it
I feel bad that Ares isn't that good for some builds. Is my fav god (and the only one that I can cosplay lol)
i like his dash vortex thing
i dunno, i feel like i don't really mind seeing Ares ever on a run
but it's true he doesn't have a lot of secondary synergies with most builds
the bigger problem is blade vortex feels lackluster unless you build for it specifically
vortex is way better on dash than cast
since the dash circles don’t care about environment like cast does
i keep getting lag spikes for some reason
@last veldt so what should I spend my titans blood on, I’ve got chiron bow lvl 1, zagreus bow lvl 5, aspect of talos, aspect of eris, zeus shield and I think that’s it basically
What's your preferred play style?
Chiron is flexible and powerful at full unlock, but it'll eat most of your Titan blood of you only have it at level one. Eris also very good at full unlock.
Personally I like Talos, but most say Demeter is far superior, so maybe hold off on maxing that if it's not your favourite.
dump blood into eris and win
Chiron has more combinations of hammers that work for it than Eris I think, but you can't really go wrong with either.
Just max out the one of those you think you'll enjoy playing most, since you'll be using this to farm a lot of Titan blood for the other aspects 
eris does global damage buff to everything
chiron has like 2 or 3 builds that really shine with it imo
that said i am an avid chiron supporter just that eris is deadbrain and global damage buff
I know, I just have a personal preference for bows really.
it’s my favorite non-cheesy aspect (chiron)
honestly, i prefer zag to chiron
just feels cleaner to play
maybe im weird
and bad
anyone here?
are we
i hate bow atk lol i live for chiron special dopamine delivery
The arc from murder to zagreus kinda wholesome tho
fair enough
took me a while to get into zag bow
and its super hammer dependent
but it gets me into that flow state
like a good zag bow run is a power fantasy
well, so is a good every run
but idk i get into a rhythm
feels good man
i feel like bow falls apart with dc but barring that it can be awful fun to run around 1shotting like most everything
rama deals well with it
because you special then dash strike
but yeah other ones really struggle with it
big if true
Do i HAVE to go to patrocolus again for achilles to spawn
I voided the contract talked to achilles and he left
Do i have to go to patrocolus?
i think so, yes
youll get him
Achilles hunting blades is insane, I didn’t even get vicious cycle or engulfing vortex
Gods, vicious cicle is SO amazing
Got that for the prophecy. I legit became a cutting machine with it 😅
What’s the best cast for beo? I just got it after 80 attempts
flood also gets you halfway to mirage shot which is insanely op with beo
So they keep their respective damage and effects buts it’s like an explosion at the end of the bull rush instead of a projectile?
there's a bug where with beo the mirage shot does more damage than it's supposed to
I heard it’s bugged and doubles damage instead of 30%
Also beo is a broken aspect
I’ve heard which is why I’m annoyed to get it as my last aspect
Trippy flare also receives double value from poms on beo
Chaos would talk about everything but my shield
BIG MOOD
mirage cast is bugged on beo and causes you to do 2x more cast damage
so you want to get at least artemis and poseidon
i’m not sure what the mets is for the bloodstone preference but for infernal soul if you get auto reload>bad news that’s another 2x damage.
then use chaos to get more stones or damage
probably try to work aphro in there to get pom power
Wait and the titan blood bonus is just cast damage or the cast loaded rush damage bonus?
Bad News is Stygian Soul exclusive.
xd idk names man
Woman.
Lvls give more dmg/aoe to attack after loading cast
Dragon rush*
So a wider rush but not more cast damage
Beowulf levels are definitely worth it, but it's still very powerful at low levels.
i don’t use man as a gendered term but sorry if it bothered you
flood beo is the speedrun wr
Beo L1 can do like, 70% of what L5 beo can
pro tip: call everyone fam or buddy
Hera is the wr unmodded
it has beo speedrun wr but not overall wr
ah, i misread the leaderboard
How do you not use man gendered? 
non-literally. imagine a surfer accent
side note but this is the internet full stops at the end of message read insanely passive aggressive
allow me to modify my statement. beo is the shield aspect that speedrunners use
The runs are fairly recent, if you haven’t checked the leaderboard in the last week or 2, you wouldn’t have known.
Beo was WR for like 4 months before
ohhhh ok thats the issue
Rama was like 2 weeks ago and hera was 3 days after that
yeah i haven't checked the leaderboard in a few weeks, the last wr i watched was the beo 5:32 with 22min rta
Modded has Achilles 4:55 too
yes!
there are certain languages where the male pronoun doubles as the gender neutral one
whether that's desirable or not is another question
Funny how it's always the male ones. 
even cooler languages where language is divided into animate and inanimate, and a lot more stuff is in animate than you'd think it's very cool
Wow, that's actually nice!
wait why was this brought up lol oops
Hahah it happens
German is the only one I know where they and she are the same, and even then they're conjugated differently
Oh I also have eris rail. Forgot that one
I did enjoy playing with eris rail
Is dionysus’s call good?
Yep
It’s not something you can really build around like how Zeus aid would be, but it hits hard enough that it’s a totally valid choice
Just don’t use it at the same time as other hangover
Note that aphro dio duo is useless for it tho
Cause they don’t stack
It's not useless.
Yeah it’s pretty good
I never used any aspects on the spear. What’s a good one to start with
With Achilles maxed out it's very good. Only minimum level is okay but not amazing.
Hm, so should I try it or farm for more titans blood first
Maxing it will probably take a lot of it
So I should probably take another one?
About 15
Yeah
How much blood do you still have?
Spread it out before committing to an aspect
Then Eris or Chiron based on what we were talking about earlier.
A couple of levels in each maybe?
Sounds good
Chiron didn’t make a difference at level 1, but putting a few levels in it should help
Achilles is a good spear aspect for people who don't like playing spear
At level 1, Dionysus is the only viable god for special
how so? call expires around 3-4 stacks of hangover
it's def amazing on charon, i meant for the call use case
Is lvl 3 chiron good enough?
I have 7 titans blood left
getting to 5 arrows so you can get a full hangover stack
is the magic break point number
idr the level offhand but
do taht
It's going to feel much better at level 3. Aim to get Relentless Volley
Or concentrated Volley
3 gets you to the 5 arrows i think
6 I thought
It said six in the description
Level one is 4
Wats in the room in the house of hades u unlock after true ending
word. been a while lol
Samey cloaks
||resources director, place to spend ur money after u unlock everything. more or less a prestige system||
(spoilers for courtesy to others)
kk
I got concentrated volley in the first room
Nice
That'll buff the damage output
It doesn't add more arrows but the last one does a fair bit more now
Ok that was kind of embarrassing 🥲
Lost time at the furies
I’m using tight deadline and extreme measures 1 since that fight is still easy
td1 is free
td2 is a little sweat
td3 is required to join team sweaty tryhard if thats your goal
ts 36/28/20 min total so
once youre getting 28 reliably enjoy your two free heat
im a casual tho 
You first. 

real talk tho, i need to just do the same run multiple times
that will help me get better
Hows it useless? it gives more hangover stacks
because dio call wont last long enough to get to 6 stacks
it's not useless
that was just for that one use case
i've had many quality runs about love, alcohol and centaurs
with that duo
that were stonks

@high island is our resident aphro expert and im sure knows if its possible to get 6 stacks of hangover via dio call only
👀
yeah, i mean the quarter-bar signle call
i guess that would work
but is hoarding the calls worth it
i cant think of a reason unless its like
meme beam or something
where call generates mad fast
and i forgot to use it lol
then its like oops

just because Smair/Dio call is solid
smair/anything except ares or artemis is great
literally ever play mario kart with a star the entire game
Hmmmm true
you need to know that hades is going to repeat his last move if you aphro aid him
Poms are fun in smair aphro too
and if you get a high level call
like, three poms or so
hang on i have a clip somewhere
If you have a good charm use it on theseus vs asterius while he is calling a god
ooog
Peak funny
Well that was my first time dying before thesus and asterius in a long while
Yup
Anyone else hate like Aphros angry when you pick between 2 gods?
That homing heart is so 
I always pick the other god
so this is exactly what not to do with aphros aid lol
but
it's still the minotaur murdering theseus in like 15 seconds
(reason it was a mistake, shoulda spread out the charms on both)
Also witches destroy themselves if charmed
deadass?
based
its a link to an old message on this server
why am i so bad at this lol
I think is only elysium witches tho
The oned with the big orb that explodes into smaller ones
Not sure, but he will target asterius
#h1-victory-boasting message @digital slate click that, itll take u to a post in victory boasting channel, scroll down, there's the clip
Links me fine in mobile
ah rip my win streak finally ended
rail gun is so trash imo, my build also sucked tho lmao
One of the best weapons in the game... with a good build.
Try Lightning Strike, then get Static Discharge and Tidal Dash. With a bunch of poms on Tidal Dash and maybe 1-2 on Static Discharge.
That should shred everything.
Yeah max the attack aspect of it
Also you can use your Special or Dash at the same time you reload.
So you go can empty your clip > reload + Special > repeat.
I think the other weapons are still better
Usually with aggressive dashes while holding Attack.
Though maybe the hidden aspect of the gun will change my mind
Well, it gets some of the best results in speedruns and in high heat. But that doesn't mean it always clicks with everyone, of course.
Delta chamber good when you’re learning it imo
I think I just need to practice with it a bit, its also my least used weapon
If it's getting the best speedrun results cant really argue against that
Not the best, but it's up there.
Early on, speedruns were like 99% Eris lol.
luci aint as good as eris and hestia
beo comfy
Some genius Hestia player also just got a 9:27 at 41 Heat. Pretty amazing stuff, ngl.
Wish I was that good.
Whoa that’s insane

My best time is 25 minutes so I can’t imagine beating in less than ten
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/725021639506526249/931974101323645088/Hades_4831.png wonder who it is. definitely not some aphrodite lover 
Aphrodite simp
Nah you could probably do it with hundreds of hours + you know how to speedrun
modded helps too
My average time is like 20 usually but that's like doing everything for extra resources and stuff
Spread fire nice
My pb is 13:58
aint that targetting
Bruh, people do not know Rail hammer icons apparently. 
Oh it is
Just beat the game and I’m kind of crying
I could probably do sub 10 if I practiced a bit and really tried
Or just looking at ammo count
I forget boon and hammer names all the time
bruh exagryph special spam can cheese megaera
It's because I'm a casual gamer
Imma get a sub 10 at some point
Almost 500 wins? Whoa
There's so many and they are small similar icons
i don't know over half of the icons total

I gotta farm the actual weapons and keepsakes first tho
Yeah, that would have been a lot more than 3 resets in unmodded lol.
I have like 350 wins
no its not
Easy, just refer to the wiki without telling anybody.
exagryph spamming zeus attack and specialing while reloading cheeses meg harder
I'd have to read the wiki a lot yeah
Anyone know how many times you need to escape for ||the ending where persephone comes home?||
I just got it
10
Then maybe I could memorize everything
kinda mad work ngl
How did I achieve that?
I should try that
I suck at thus game
Clearly not
win 10 times or something idk
You accidentally got 10 wins so you have actively improved
It was rhetorical
Evidently so
Don't beat yourself up over being "bad" or whatever, just enjoy the game at your own pace.

I tried chiron but I didn’t find it fun playing with it
Is chiron in this game?
Yeah
Really?
It’s just a weapon aspect
Oh
Never tried Rama before
Hidden aspect
It plays differently but it has by far the highest attack damage potential
I only have one hidden aspect unlocked and I haven’t bought it yet
Because its special is rapid concentrated ricocheting arrows that make all enemies hit by them share damage taken for like 10 seconds
Then attack is a wide slow shot
It clears rooms in one shot. Or waves at least.
Some some stuff can reach 5k dmg in one hit like Arthur attack, but Rama technically is almost always doing thousands of damage because 60% of attack damage applies to the entire effected room
I finaly unlocked guan yu and I have the nastiest biuild now
Guan yu is a really good spear
Exploding launcher built in
Higher base damage all around
Spin is much more useful
What's your build? Post in #h1-builds-and-combat
Why do you slap rats?
Ill post it after this run I'm at hades now
Fists are fun. I really like a good gilgamesh build where you actually work in backstabs
Honestly I dont take that much more damage than I usually do with fists
And athena attack just helps a ton
Whats the best weapon?
you're mom
Your*
What have you become ppman 
how you upload images to this server
I posted the build over there if ya wanna check it out
👍
Better question: what's your playstyle
Bc it all depends on how you want to escape. High damage, tank, dogde
does cereberus his favor (pet him 20 times) have to be in different runs or can you do it all in 1 go?
Different runs
You can't pet more than once per visit in the house as far as I'm aware
well you can
Really?
i petted him like 11 times in 1 go and then started to wonder if i was wasting my time
Oh okay, I'm used to interactions being rate limited
but it registers as 1 i guess
Well you can tell us in 9 goes
i did while i was waiting, but it doesn't count, i already had the pet 10 times achievment
im currently trying to 100% this game (as in achievements)
Still, nobody should need excuses to give pets
true
currently 40 out of 49
Go in with no regard for health and murder everyone
sounds like any weapon
i meant the no regard for health
if he has no regard for health its in my opion better if he has some damage reduction
or just have enough dps to kill everything before they damage you
which a lot of other aspects do better
fair excalibur hits hard but slow
All other aspects. 
try aspect of nemesis
you kinda want to know how to play sword
my general playstyle with sword is dashing and attack like there is no tomorrow XD
thats why i do excalibur, so i think more while i play
id say playing recklessly with arhur is easier than the oyher swords at low heat
Sword hard
bow hard
damn I didn't realize they incorporated a end to the actual game with the credits and all
badass
What’s the best aspect for sea storm?
Do you wanna specifically aim for it
Because you can grab it on something like Eris and it would do good damage but you don't really try to get it
If it shows up you just take it and that's it
If you wanna strictly build around it/ have it as your main damage source you can try Sea Storm Chiron
Or supersoaker 
Like on special and it’s 8 bolts?
Like I know it’s a strong thing but with merciful end I don’t go in looking for it with rail I go in with fists
Alright now i gotta do one last run to see if anything changes after I bring back momma persephone
It wont be 8 bolts due to internal cooldowns and what not
persephone back in 38 runs not too bad
But yea something like Tempest Flourish Sea Storm Static Discharge Double strike
Would melt bosses especially with good hammers
And most likely Zeus Call
possibly splitting
This made me super mad when I got chaos shield Zeus special double strike and it did not melt bosses with 6 bolts at once
But it makes sense for balancing
What do the chapters before a run mean?
When it's a closeup shot of hades and it says judged or whatever

gotta educate people about superior builds 
What have I done. 
Guan yu looks fun
only problem is you need quick plus massive spin, seastorm, splitting bolt, double strike, high voltage, jolted, and bad news or rush delivery 
immensely based
Why bad/rush?
why would you not want 50-100% increased zoos damage 
bad news is 50% global damage because they forgot
instead of just 50% cast damage
nah you cant have it lodged
less useful on stuff like hestia
but zeus/ares/dio stuff really benefits
But the bonus is meant to be on just casts and it’s a global debuff
So an opposite boiling
ngl if bad news worked how it was supposed to itd be kinda crappy when hyper delivery exists especially with how rare it is. tbh hyper delivery is better anyways if you get rare or epic
yea
even non bugged mirage shot is better if you have like more than +50% cast damage 
Hm idk what run I want to do next, I don’t want to do the same runs over and over
32 Heat.
Really? I haven’t even finished a 2 heat run yet
32 is just 3 more heat then 
I’m totally a casual player and I can tell you 32 heat is easy
me too 
I could try it with my favorite aspect I guess
Definitely not at this stage
32 heat on all weapons was a perfect challenge for me
I’ve only cleared 6 times and I don’t have all aspects yet
I only have the second lowest reaction time out of anyone in high heat, and even I have done 32 Heat.
You need 32 to clear all achievements
You don't actually need 32 for any achievements.
Oh I thought you did for skelly prize
You just need it for the statue right
You need it for skelly prize but not for steam achievements
Oh I thought they were tied
Have you fully upgraded all of your keepsakes yet?
If not, do that and you'll have plenty of build variety.
Yeah, I just don’t want to end up using the same weapon and build over and over when practicing higher heat. I’ll probably do another eris rail run.
Athena’s, acorn, artemis, Zeus, Aphrodite, are maxed out
You can do 32 heat on whatever tbh. I did it on gilgamesh
Athena attack + splash dash
So do the others then.
And try out all of the different pacts.
There's plenty to explore.
2nd skelly trophy is an acheivement but not 3rd
64 is twice the heat and 100 times the difficulty
maybe a bit more than 100
9001 times
Is that the last aspect? Idk how to unlock it
Secret aspect unlock requirements are pinned in story thread
one dash and zag sword is not pog
It kinda is yea
main problem is you usually dont play ri4 zag sword 
having no dps and no dashes means you gotta be really patient
id do fresh file if ME was guaranteed 
actually could just install a mod for that 
i got divine strike but ares gave me slicing shot 
Haven't made it to the second phase yet either
i forget whats the furthest ive gotten either champs or got murdered by dad 
I got to dad once but left Heroes at like 10 hp so it was going downhill from there 
Also it being like slowish compared to regular hades stuff makes me less fun to practice for me
So never got into it
ngl dodging spins with fo0 one dash is harder for me than fo2 

Heroes and Hades are very tough on ff yea
Actually pain
Just not used to it, ff players seem to have no issues with that but yea
Just like we’re too used to fo2 spins and whatnot
How do I give hades more nectar? He already has 3 and the option hasn’t been there for a while
And when I no longer need darkness should I run Olympian favor or dark foresight?
heat 32 is so rough
I guess in fairness I had +20% mob spawn
- keep escaping, will solve itself
- always use DF, chamber reward darkness is meaningless
Just do a heat you already did to get darkness from bosses
Or darkness troves
Oh wait you already opened dad heart lock
I have an ambigiuos quality pact of punishment component idea, causing killed enemies to shoot off a projectile at you.
There’s a Chaos curse for that
Congrats on that win
thank you
tbh I wasnt even trying to win
was just doing a run for gems
and I'm still missing Artemis keepsake lol
how do you unlock the shields hidden aspect?
#h1-story-discussion pins, basically you need hidden spear unlocked, then have 5 blood total invested into the shield, then talk to Chaos
thank you
I'mma be doing some speedrun practice on stream 16:04 is pb out of 2 attempts so far
jolted very based
Alright I'm doing bow tutorial stream now
whats a good poseidon sword build
i think many use arty cast
but i like poseidon cast + artemis special
aim for mirage shot
and the artemis leg + as many chaotic shots/grasps as you can get
alr
dont have Poseidon’s keepsake (keep forgetting to give him nectar) so im just gonna pray to rngjesus
chain lightning: "allow me to introduce myself"
oh god i forgot about chain lightning
so bad that i have erased it from my mind
its fine as a stepping stone for splitting bolt when im running eris but its just really not worth it if youre not going for the legendary tbh
high voltage aint that bad. hitting a bunch of enemies with every jolted proc melts groups
also. peer pressure
honestly im just using Poseidon sword because i need more titan blood and havent done a sword run on heat but this isnt terrible i actually like this a lot
pos sword op
you ever get a run thats cursed
no matter how many times you reset and use a different weapon you are only ever offered common boons
yup
you resetting wih give up?
that
LMAO WAIT SPOILERS ||I ACTUALLY GOT HYPNOSES AUTOGRAPH||
think messing with the pact or mirror can too
I DIDNT KNOW YOU COULD DO THAT
aint it asterius' autograph
yeah
i mean his autograph for hypnos
and then asterius kicked my ass but hey i got mirage shot so
yeah think the autograph questline thingy requires you to die to asterius and theseus a couple times each
im aware
it was a hammer start
so each weapon would have diff option
but they were all poop everytime
lol
losing to theseus will never stop hurting will it
yeah i dont want theseus to kill me so sorry no autograph for hypnos 
also, curious, whats a good beowulf build
I got kinda screwed in the end but I had a funny trippy flare build going
I had the prereqs for fully loaded, nectar, rerolled, still didnt get it
Because you do infernal. The recharging cast.
I did manage to get my cast to do over 1000 dmg
I had +73% cast dmg + a cast stone from Chaos, and a like lvl 7 epic Trippy Flare on Beo
And Trippy Flare pom scaling is bugged on Beo
So its busted
meta for beo is flood flare arty attack mirage shot
I also got bad hammers.
Yeah
You can also do passion flare or phalanx flare
Most other options are too tricky to be worth your trouble
