teaching middle schoolers edited version of Zeus raping a woman is not valuable...id say its more akin to child abuse and is child sexual grooming. They will just go look up the full version and their parents will have to deal with why the school is leading them to talk about rape [which has happened often] you mentioned UNI...so college level students ? those are adults, choose what you want to read not little children who can barely share their crayons. ... Id also disagree you can't "reclaim" a story that's already misogynistic your just erasing the abuse of the people that lived in that time period 🤷♀️ especial woman/children/slaves....why protect a 900 year old rapist 😒 its defiantly historical information tho, but shouldn;t be altered.

Please do not assume that about me. I am not saying I condone the actions of the gods. And as someone who is part of multiple marginalized groups, I think I have some say in reclamation of these myths. I understand your concern, but as someone who grew up with these myths, would consistently check out these books in elementary school, and is vehemently against censorship of controversial stories (see the most recent controversy surrounding the banning of Maus), I know very, very well that just because something is controversial, doesn't mean we can't learn about it and critique it. This is literally why I study genocides. This is literally why I plan to get a doctorate in it. This is literally why I, as a US citizen who is also Filipino American, know the importance of learning the truth of history and literature, especially its darker parts.
If you want an honest discussion, please dm me instead. I would rather not have this in the server, especially as such discourse talk is against server rules.

I disagree think it matters if you are part of a special group or not. Its not about your "group" its about child sexual abuse which effect every ethnic group/sex/ or whatever category you want to talk about. Children's libraries are for children and child safeguarding *laws and child well being comes first before the interest of what you wish children to learn. I also already stated that their was difference between adults having access to something vs children. An adult is not a child. I don't think you can consider keeping rape stories out of children's hand a "ban" . Even with other stories like video games and movie, content has to be rated anyway and their is lawful duty of companies to be clear about the nature of the stories, and not sell to children if applicable ..if parents fail to protect their children that's another issue. If you had access to inappropriate content as a child that doesn't mean its okay to disregarded the safeguarding of other children....what you do and study as a full grown adult doesn't override children safety. You can’t show porn to children, or give them alcohol. That isn’t a ban, as adults still have access, its regulations. .... not in the rules ? I didn't curse at you, I did not insult you, an this is about mythology....which hades is based on. Ya'll were talking about the implications before...

The damage reduction is a lot

max god mode is basically lets you take 5 times the damage
so if you have hl5 then god mode is like hl negative 3

Does god mode still show up as your end of run records

It is simply just count seperately

This may be a dumb question, but do higher heat rewards also award the lower rewards if I skip a heat?

so uh, how do iuse the shield
Block forever
literally everything Hades does can be blocked
You can also camp in the southwest corner near the entrance which messes up his pathing a bit
The build I used to beat Hades was a Demeter laser + dionysus special build
I sat behind my shield as my DOTs put him away
azure trellis
depends. Do you have secret aspect
sour isle
no lol
azure trellis
ok
well first off if you can just attrition him to death like I said above you dont need damage
cause youll never get hit
However for damage you have a few options
I recommend Shield of Chaos with Explosive Return hammer
azure trellis
Or you can do the ultimate weapon-agnostic build
Smoldering Air
Zeus call, aphro, duo boon, pump poms into call
ridiculous damage every 5 seconds
alternatively you go Explosive Return, Artemis on special, Zeus cast or attack, then Lightningrod
Smack him in the back with chaos shotgun forever and never pick up your cast crystals
Seastorm build is also good
basically most of the broken weapon agnostic builds are especially good on shield

Yeah. Static Discharge and Double Strike.
Well, Merciful End with Curse of Pain probably has a higher top end, but that's a less consistent build.

Is calculated risk even worth it
I’m in elysium and I’m getting this with potential to replenish a dd from Athena, I have 2 rerolls from keys and might get screwed from approval process
gray apex
It can mess with your Muscle memory in the hades fight
polar quail
The alternative is getting bronze skin or rerolling
chrome wharf
If it's LC4 I'd grab the DD
Unless there's UC coming up and I don't have a better fodder
polar quail
I don’t have lasting consequences on
I only have calisthenics program, approval process, and routine inspection for prophecy
Turned everything else off
chrome wharf
Depends on how comfortable you are with the game, probably
Calc risk can help with stuff like Theseus spear toss
But if you're used to fighting them normally, and only have 1 DD or less left then maybe dd
polar quail
Took calc risk since I have 2 dds
brisk trail
calc risk kinda cheeses theseus
but makes hades harder with those damn heat seeking skellys

em3 isnt that hard tbh (if you are ok with em2 i mean). I never tried em4 but i will have to i suppose ^^
fathom mango
This is my first time trying out em3
imo em3 is harder than teh final boss base form but thats just because the final boss base form u can dodge him a lot
for me at least

I have about 40 wins on fists and 1 on everything do I have a problem?
I don't like anything else 😭

I have about 40 wins on fists and 1 on everything do I have a problem?

Maybe arthur I would like

I tried Achilles maxed and didn't like it

If it could be guaranteed I would play it all the time
long range fists hmmmm yes delicious
proud pilot
long range fists hmmmm yes delicious
I understand you, i love fists too :D. What's your fav fist aspect? Personaly since i tried gilga i think its my fav weapon in the game ^^
zag fist with plume is fun but its just.. stupidly cheated i would say xD. You dodge a lot and then you don't get better in the game (trying to dash to make a true dodge etc..)
thorn gust
demeter fist is hilarious when you get the right hammer to make your special 1 shot stuff
polar quail
What boons aren’t purgable
polar quail
Ok thanks
fiery crow
Most of the time Zag so that I only have to push Attack down and never use special
I've played zeus attack a lot
proud pilot
yeah that works rly well
fathom mango
shoot 3 casts (wait) shoot 3 casts (wait)
lets say u get 5 casts with plus 30 percent cast damage from chaos or ares then have like flood shot that does 250 dmg thats almost +200 percent lets say its 200 percent thats 750 each x 5thats 3750 dmg then get hermes drp time lke 3 seconds to 3750 dmg every couple of seconds
for a build thats not too hard to get
with artemis legendary its even more insane
and even more poms
steep comet
does the game still bug out if you reach 999 esacpe attemps on a save file?
high island
Has nothing to do with 999, just after a large number of attempts, you can experience minor lag when leaving a chamber and things like that.
steep comet
oh
high island
Unless you're going for an RTA WR or something like that, it makes practically no difference.
steep comet
fair enough
proud pilot
To people who speedrun the game, you use TimeSplit (edit: Livesplit, thanks rmacinty :p) for your runs?
proud pilot
yeah livesplit that's what i meant ^^
raw herald
A lot of people use it to easily track if you’re on pace
But I’ve either never bothered to install it, or not needed it
proud pilot
^^ ok. Yeah the game already has a timer thats cool
im far from making crazy fast time as some people here can do, but i wanted to learn how to use the software, maybe for later, when i'll be better ^^
i watched a video and the software seems very easy to use, and highly configurable

I like the autosplit feature for livesplit when it works

What is different about modded and how do I know a run is modded?
proud pilot
its when you use "mods", simple as that ^^
you can find some mods on nexus (google it)
their is a special server for modding hades
devout terrace
you can tell by the modded game text at the top right
twin thistle
well generally its specifically referring to the speedrunning modpack when we talk about modded runs
hearty mural
you can tell by the *modded game* text at the top right
I ask because I was watching your run and there are god icons in the corner, only one offered hammer, and aphro offered 4 boons
proud pilot
i was looking on nexus a few days ago and 90% of the mods i saw are just to make the game easier or make you invincible/make billions of dmgs.. that's sad 😦
only thing i found that could be "fun" is the randomizer
twin thistle
that or it'll say zeuwus https://imgur.com/a/6ickiUT
twin thistle
dont think modders can add assets and stuff very easily
polar quail
i was looking on nexus a few days ago and 90% of the mods i saw are just to make...
That’s unfortunate.
proud pilot
yeah 😦
i love modding games i play but i think hades is one of those games i'll not mod. Or at least not for the moment
polar quail
I can’t use mods anyway but it’d be interesting to see
But the game still has enough to offer without mods
So it’s fine
proud pilot
yeah totaly agree
polar quail
yeah totaly agree
Which pacts do you have left to do the prophecy
proud pilot
hmm don't remember exactly. I know for example i never tried HL/LC/CF
but as i'm now starting to do heats lvl12+, i'll have to try them soon or later ^^
polar quail
hmm don't remember exactly. I know for example i never tried HL/LC/CF
HL was the first one I tried
Good luck with approval process, calisthenics program, and routine inspection
proud pilot
the first i seriously focused were TD and EM. TD has never been an issue and EM3 just needed a few runs to learn the moves but thats not a huge difference. I would love to be able to use TD3 but i'll need training for that one for sure ^^
ahah yeah true
polar quail
I’ve only completed with tight deadline 1, I’m not very fast but I’m practicing to be able to clear in less than 20 minutes
proud pilot
easy thing you can do to gain some time is to use the pause (when you're thinking what the door you will be going for example etc..)
polar quail
I do that already
proud pilot
personaly i know i could be faster but if their is a fish i have to go for it and i also do a lot of chests xD
thanks time is not running when we'are fishing
but sometimes i loose precious seconds when i try to see where the fishing spot is lol ^^
but tbh i'm not focusing on speedrunning for the moment. I try to be fast yes, but not focusing on the timer
okay i'm going back to the game, still have some blood to farm ^^
see ya later! GL for your runs 😉

the common strat is avoid using all 3 casts at once unless you know it kills the last enemies

big brain strat is bullrush into your casts and spam the cast button

yeah it was my first run so i was most of times using 3 casts all the time

then somehow pick up the first 2 that are drifting down

with training i'll know when i need 1, 2 or 3 casts

three casts usually overkill anyways

it comes with practice don't worry
