meager tiger
#

lmao unlimited amount of fog rn

lost ermine
#

dio has some tier 2 boons you might want to pick up

meager tiger
#

welp just got ares somehow

#

hehehe got the 10% overall dmg boost from ares

#

thanks lad

#

does cast dmg get calculated at the hit or at the usage?

#

cuz if i dash with achilles while dio casts drops idk if i get dmg boost

#

ok this build stomps elysium

#

never thought i'd say that

lost ermine
#

description is next 4 ATTACKS

#

so

meager tiger
#

ahhh hmm

lost ermine
#

on use not on hit

meager tiger
#

onyx linden
#

Is it the gods?

meager tiger
#

meager tiger

But it feels bad when i press the button and dad just says no

gray apex
#

When you get more clears you'll be able to use it

raven cipher
#

Is there a limit to how many attack boons you can get in a single run?
Like can i get Athenas "attack is stronger and can deflect" + Artemis "Attack damage and Crit chance" + "Attacks cause lightning bolts" + "attacks fire a seeking arrow" etc?

still glade
#

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

polar marsh
#

He got hank hilled :V

marsh ore
#

Is bad news global dmg? I heard something along those lines awhile back despite the boon saying cast dmg

gray apex
#

Bad News is global damage

#

As long as the enemy has no cast in them

marsh ore
#

Nice so ig that's a big buff to stygian soul

gray apex
#

I mean it's nice but in most scenarios you either dont get it or it's not worth forcing/going for

#

Because RD exists

marsh ore
#

What does Rd do?

gray apex
#

The main build where you actively go for it is probably Dio Beo

marsh ore
#

Also i don't usually do cast builds so I'm sorry for not knowing anything

gray apex
#

So it's scalable

marsh ore
#

Oh yeah i always liked that one

gray apex
#

Because the more mvt speed the more the damage increase

#

And it scales greatly with rarity too

marsh ore
#

Nice, i was just wondering since I'm planning on changing around my mirror options to get enough darkness for the chaos theme

#

So i was wondering if i was gonna be stuck with one of the souls for awhile

#

Which should i pick

gray apex
#

Most cast builds use Infernal

#

A few ones use Stygian like Dio beo or maybe beams with Achilles

#

If not going for a cast build then it's preference

#

Wont matter too much

marsh ore
#

I'll probably go infernal in case i wanna do a cast build

#

Thx for the info

gray apex
#

It'll be cheap to buy the other one later anyway

marsh ore
#

Yea

onyx linden
#

I use the ice beam

#

Because it looks pretty

god im still shocked at how good the credit song is

#

That sounds off actually

latent moon
#

Im pretty sure you need 2 companions

signal aspen
#

you need two companions

#

one of which works for hades

gray apex
#

oh okay

lean timber
#

rama and lucifer are a lot of fun

#

gilgamesh is cool too actually i forgot i used that one last night

So true

Easiest game ever played

Can someone help me with the queens plan

#

Cant seem to progress it

latent moon
#

You have to talk to every god or something right

lean timber
#

have to forge a bond with at least 6 gods i think

#

so get your nectar and ambrosia ready!

tired karma
#

after noticing it I can't unsee this now (chopped border)

Literally unplayable

L skill issue

brisk trail
#

Hey guys how do i get the hidden aspects for shield bow and fists? [ no spoilers on what they are though just tell me how] have a good day

rustic vale
#

do you already have the spear hidden aspect?

brisk trail
#

yes i do

rustic vale
#

otherwise for hidden bow it’s talk to artemis until you get the right dialogue post putting 5 blood into the bow, and talk to asterius until you get the right dialogue after putting 5 blood into the fists, and talk to chaos after putting 5 blood into shield til you get the right dialogue

brisk trail
#

what apects though must I put the blood into?

rustic vale
#

Any

#

it’s just 5 blood total

brisk trail
#

ok then thanks

rustic vale
#

(just like all the others)

raven cipher
#

Can i get hidden Rail aspect by talking with Zeus while i have Zeus boon equipped? Im trying to spam as many Zeus as possible but he wont give me the new dialogue

rustic vale
#

You mean the keepsake?

raven cipher
raven cipher
# patent mesa yes

ok ty, is it hard to unlock? because I've done probably like 10 escape attempt with 5+ titan blood in railgun and havnt managed to get it yet, but with the sword i got it on 2nd attempt

patent mesa
#

no more or less than any other non spear hidden

#

got 5 blood invested in non zag aspects correct?

raven cipher
#

is that required for railgun aspect? according to wiki i recall it only saying that for the Spear

#

just says "Have a total of 5 Titan Blood or more invested into Rail aspects" on the wiki

patent mesa
#

tbh no clue on that regard but might be worth trying if it's still not working

raven cipher
#

well i got it just now lmao, classic

mint coral
#

Only hidden spear needs non zag aspects

patent mesa
#

enjoy the op aspect

mint coral
#

After that is either skipped or some filler text

mint coral
#

@patent mesa did you write that when you saw the message or had it prepared from before bouldy

patent mesa
#

lmao I actually wrote that just now

mint coral
#

Amazing

patent mesa
#

not to drown in my own reflection but pretty good pasta tbh

warm nimbus
#

oh i see now lol

raven cipher
#

the first mirror upgrade "100% damage to undamaged foes" does that mean "100% dmg to armored foes" essentially since their HP is technically undamaged? 🤔

raven cipher
#

aww ok

#

i noticed the Railgun hidden aspect didnt do very good vs armor, but might just have been unlucky boons

lean timber
#

lol

#

then you're playing it wrong

raven cipher
#

was first run so yea probably

lean timber
#

absolutely decimates armor

#

pro tip: use hellfire

raven cipher
#

felt like i shredded hp but didnt do much vs armor

lean timber
#

a lot

#

hellfire is what you want to use for armor especially. take it out super quick

raven cipher
#

do you try to detonate hellfire, or leave it up for as long as possible?

lean timber
#

detonate asap

patent mesa
#

the pulse damage is pretty useless

#

its only use is applying effects like chill

lean timber
#

9/10 times no reason to leave it on the field unless maybe some form of space control is what you want. but i would never take it seriously in that regard

raven cipher
#

I see

patent mesa
#

oh athena special pulses I think deflect

#

which is lowkey useful

raven cipher
#

for heat, is there any that are easier than others? I have a hard time telling which ones i should crank up first

lean timber
#

bruh

patent mesa
#

tight deadline is basically first choice

#

at least TD2 is free heat

warm nimbus
#

if you dont feel confident you can do a run in under 36 minutes, em1 is also pretty easy for 1 heat

#

em2 takes a bit to learn but is also pretty easy

raven cipher
#

is damage control worth? feels like it shouldnt set you back that much if you use a fast firing weapon like railgun?

warm nimbus
#

dc isnt great until high heat

patent mesa
#

certain aspects it's free

#

gun handles DC very well usually

warm nimbus
#

because that means you dont proc fiery presence

lean timber
#

dc is scary sometimes very weapon dependent

patent mesa
#

also very build dependent

warm nimbus
#

i dont think dc is worth on rail bc you dont get fiery on your special unless you really try to

patent mesa
#

I wouldn't take DC at low heat on anything except zeus attack

raven cipher
#

what does "Or some additional problem" under "Middle Management" mean? lol

patent mesa
#

oh yeah I'd keep MM on permanently

#

you wanna learn the new minibosses

#

there are a few that get way worse but it's basically free heat

raven cipher
#

i see, im gonna run it now 😄 thanks for help

warm nimbus
#

minibosses get harder. bomber count goes from 2 to 4, doomstone arena has a bunch of traps, sneak summons things, etc

lean timber
warm nimbus
#

but its pretty nice because it only affects 3 small rooms in your whole run

patent mesa
#

power couple sucks hard on MM tbh

patent mesa
#

hate them

warm nimbus
#

power couple is a run ender with mm

lean timber
raven cipher
#

wtf my first boon-offering in a run is only offering me 1 boon which is some Legendary fishing boon? cool

warm nimbus
#

lmao

lean timber
#

WHY does the pulse do 30???? (or is it 15 i can't remember)

patent mesa
#

one bad dash = frozen by gorgon then slam + wave for like 80 damage

warm nimbus
#

huge catch gaming

patent mesa
#

so messed up

rustic vale
#

it’s the best legendary

warm nimbus
signal aspen
#

power couple isnt that bad tbh

#

im just built different

raven cipher
#

how rare is it?

lean timber
signal aspen
#

no

patent mesa
#

flex smh

lean timber
#

ok

warm nimbus
#

yeah stop flexing on us

signal aspen
#

im just too good

warm nimbus
#

power couple is the worst miniboss on mm by far though

#

well except barge

#

but barge doesnt count

patent mesa
#

I prefer MM barge by a lot tbh

#

it's fun

#

modded makes you miss barge

warm nimbus
#

mm barge is more fun tho ill say that

lean timber
#

barge was rough for sure. but power couple actually killed me so they win

warm nimbus
#

i turn it back on for like <40 heat now

patent mesa
#

I feel like I don't take any damage on high heat MM barge

#

even though it's a massive rave party on the barge

warm nimbus
#

maybe ill turn that on

signal aspen
#

you ever see super barge tho

patent mesa
#

super barge is easy

signal aspen
#

worst miniboss imo

warm nimbus
#

super barge is easier than regular barge

#

which hyper delivery was that in again?

patent mesa
#

super barge is op because it lets you heal to full with draining cutter

warm nimbus
#

dude im so smart

warm nimbus
#

ah number 4

#

yo flayed flourish gaming

#

i love when that happens

#

so funny

lean timber
signal aspen
#

deez nuts

#

🤣🤣🤣🤣

patent mesa
#

lol tbh hades is like the 1 videogame you can have a stream for that kind of charity and not get death threats

raven cipher
#

wait, its because i earn 0 gold

#

obviously

lean timber
signal aspen
mint coral
#

Same

signal aspen
#

Are you using mods?

latent moon
#

isn't that because of a chaos curse

#

because it's making sure you know that you're gonna sell it for 0 coins

mint coral
#

I've never seen the ! Icon tho

chrome wharf
#

Me too

warm nimbus
#

i feel like ive seen that before

raven cipher
#

btw, do u have to have a weapon equipped to unlock its hidden aspect? or just the 5 titan blood?

mint coral
#

Just 5 titan blood

#

But may need the character to mention the weapon first

rustic vale
#

Uh

#

That’s big mans keepsake

raven cipher
#

nvm i figured it out, was easy to find in codex

mint coral
#

Skull earring from meg and 2 behind credits

brisk trail
#

Hey guys what aspect of the fists is better Talos or Demeter?

latent moon
#

demeter

brisk trail
#

really because i am on a run with the talos fists and it's pretty fun to use

modern garnet
#

better weapons arent necessarily more funn they just win more

lean timber
#

i've never used talos. only demeter and gilgamesh

brisk trail
#

ah ok

lean timber
#

chaos theme goes hard. love this. best investment

#

hmm today i think i will win the first of skelly's prizes for a prophecy

brisk trail
#

is that the one for 8 heat?

lean timber
#

ya

brisk trail
#

oh no

latent moon
#

8 heat is cake walk

#

16 is eh if you're not too experienced

lean timber
#

8 shouldn't be an issue at all. 6 was fine

latent moon
#

32 might slap you around a lot lol

lean timber
#

just gonna jump right into it i think

#

yeah 32 is gonna hurt

brisk trail
#

good luck

latent moon
#

On the other hand if you straight up start at 32 you can get all 3 at once

lean timber
#

oh...?

#

i do not wish to do that i don't think. lmao

latent moon
#

Think about it this way

#

If you start at 32 now it'll take approximately the same amount if you were to start later

#

We're just saving time here lmao

lean timber
#

yeah but i want to see all the dialogue individually 🥺

#

also my highest heat is 6. i don't feel like grinding myself into the ground

#

just got offered epic strong drink in a fountain room. lmaooooo

mint coral
lean timber
#

bananer wants my head on a silver platter

#

tbf 6 is really nothing to me so far but i guess i like taking the game super slow

#

currently being offered an erebus gate, 2 doors, and a chaos gate. decisions, decisions

latent moon
#

i think i jumped from 16 to 32 and got it with a pretty bad build lol

patent mesa
#

why do some rooms spawn infinite crap and some rooms spawn three pests and a wringer

warm nimbus
#

idk i think 16 to 32 is fine tbh

warm nimbus
patent mesa
patent mesa
#

at 32 heat you're still taking pacts you should already be pretty familiar with

#

that or pacts that don't change the game fundamentally with the exception of maybe LC4

warm nimbus
#

yeah. 32 doesnt really have any of the bad stacks that make 40+ a pain

#

i definitely dont recommend doing 32 if you havent done 16 though

patent mesa
#

100%

warm nimbus
#

like esp bc you dont have to take fo2 and hl5

patent mesa
#

speak for yourself

warm nimbus
#

didnt you come from the reddit community originally?

#

what was your 32 pact lol

lean timber
#

i don't like that pact.

mint coral
#

Doesnt seem that bad

patent mesa
#

I also used SD

#

but yeah it was fine

warm nimbus
#

is that rama or chiron lol

lean timber
#

chiron

warm nimbus
#

ok

#

i dont agree with dc then lol

patent mesa
#

so DC2 suboptimal but not run ending

warm nimbus
#

also wtf

#

cf2???

#

what were you thinking

patent mesa
#

I repent for my sins

#

all hail CF0

lean timber
#

that one is scary.

#

i don't like it.

#

i like cheap goods

warm nimbus
#

its so funny bc cf isnt actually that awful but its just so annoying

patent mesa
#

so demoralizing walking into midshop with 150

warm nimbus
#

its like wow yknow im walkling into tart midshop with 260 and you still cant buy the boon

#

thats so painful

lean timber
#

side hustle gaming...?

warm nimbus
#

bruh

#

side hustle overrated

#

you go through asphodel only to get 2/3 of a boon by the end of it

lean timber
#

epic side hustle tho... gives you sixteen cents per room for just the cost of losing one of your two minimum hermes boon appearances... pretty worth...

warm nimbus
#

even just like +1 dash is so much better

patent mesa
#

I'm trying to run a charged volley build at 40 and just the attack is kinda stylin

#

I might try 50 zagbow tbh

#

this weapon is good

#

hot take

mint coral
#

More like cold take

lean timber
#

room temp take

patent mesa
#

steaming take

#

DAE zagbow good??

warm nimbus
#

zag bow kinda nice ngl

#

feels very clean

lean timber
#

just like zag sw

warm nimbus
#

can you take ri on zag bow?

patent mesa
#

should

warm nimbus
#

yeah seems like ri2 ap1 territory

#

honestly you could highroll for the 2 other boons you need and do ap2

patent mesa
#

then again AP2 ruins chaos

warm nimbus
#

truee

patent mesa
#

and ik zagbow loves chaos

warm nimbus
#

yeah

#

attack and dash strike boons are great

#

ok so like... em3 ri2 ap1 dc0 cp1?

#

that sounds reasonable

#

imagine ap2 tho

#

cp0 pl0 cf1

patent mesa
#

bruh I have aphro keepsake and legacy on

warm nimbus
#

lmao

patent mesa
#

two aphro rolls and no heart rend

warm nimbus
#

what

patent mesa
#

I hate duos

warm nimbus
#

duos suck

patent mesa
#

don't buy them

warm nimbus
#

i just realized how amazing zag bow is lol

#

it needs 2 hammers and 2 boons

#

and maybe some chaos

#

feels like rama lol

signal aspen
#

Zag bow just tiny rama

warm nimbus
#

exactly

rustic vale
chrome wharf
#

my first zag bow 32 was AP2 TD0 lol

#

anviled into perfect twin

warm nimbus
#

damnnn nice anvil

quartz tendon
#

Getting something good out of an anvil?

#

But that's impossible

chrome wharf
#

I vaguely recall a Dio Eris get anviled into clockets + spread

#

Which turned out to be not awful bc max stacks is 5 anyway

patent mesa
#

the true meta is doing beo cshot EM4 then anvilling cshot off

latent moon
#

Based

warm nimbus
#

sounds so based

#

imagine you get hermes lol

silver fern
#

I did not realize you could have 5 gods help you in a run (not counting hermes and chaos)

latent moon
#

i think someone here said they got 8 total gods at one point

warm nimbus
#

yeah its possible

silver fern
#

Jesus how is 8 possible? I got 5 accidentally so i thought it was rare lol

warm nimbus
#

if you get 3 before tartarus midshop, a 4th can be offered by charon that is different from the one in the next room

#

so if you buy the boon youll have 5

#

and then you use keepsakes to force the other 3

latent moon
#

oh i was thinking 3 before asphodel midshop and the two gods are different

#

and then force next 2, and also grab hermes

warm nimbus
#

well thats not counting hermes

#

if you include hermes you can get 9

#

and if youre going for 8 including hermes you dont have to do any midshop shenanigans, you can just use keepsakes in all 4 regions

lean timber
#

lean timber
royal fern
#

royal fern
#

is 40bonus damage to my attack better than cursed slash?

royal fern
#

?

gray apex
royal fern
#

got 800 money

gray apex
#

Whats the third option

royal fern
#

cruel thrust

gray apex
#

These are all awful I’d take Hoarding slash probably

#

But it wont matter because it’s barely any damage

#

And you should spend your gold

royal fern
#

damn alr

gray apex
#

If you’re feeling ambitious you can take Cursed slash, although if you’re playing sword properly it is considered straight up harmful and a potential run killer

royal fern
#

why is cursed slash bad tho

#

I dont play properly so ig its fine

gray apex
#

It’s bad because it cant outheal the damage that you take especially in bosses, and it doesn’t apply to dash strikes

#

And proper sword play is strictly dash strikes

#

So you basically end up with a hammer that reduces your hp and gives you nothing in return

royal fern
#

oh ig I do play it properly

somber rapids
#

PS is just better because of the funny sound

you don't really want to be saving money right before a boss

if you want to get as much gold as possible to buy the titan blood/diamond in the styx shop then golden touch is better but that's like the only scenario lol

why is it the hardest attack to dodge in the whole game?/??

patent mesa

yeah it seems to have a lingering hotbox

like dad pot or something like that

warm nimbus

i get hit less by every other damn attack

#

til dad pots can actually hit him btw

#

never realized that

patent mesa

yeah someone did like 50k to him with shard abuse

but it means that if you have 3 stygian shards you do 6.5k

hey guys so today something, weird happened so I was on Styx just gotten out the door ready for the boss fight but, nothing happened instead he just gave me my gems and titan's blood and i was on my way, later i realised that i actually beat the game which was awesome, also i have 2 questions, 1 who is talos and 2 who is rama because i got the bow hidden aspect earlier today so yeah good run.

#

Talos was a giant bronze guy that protected crete in greek myth and rama is an incarnation of Vishnu

#

ah ok then thanks zonk

hey just want some opinions here who is your favourite person to meet in hades is it the court musician Orpheus, or is it the fury sisters or anyone else

# pale tinsel Hey guys, does anyone here know why Hades doesnt't have the LGBTQ+ tag on steam?...

tags are in part community applied i believe. maybe if enough people would apply that tag it would show up on the store page. for example, i dont think that "perma death" and "souls-like" are tags that supergiant actually applied to the game, since theyre at the bottom of the taglist, and also not... correct, lol. as to why lgbt+ isnt in the tag list when there are lgbt characters and romance options, no idea, but its not the only game i can think of that features major lgbt characters and doesnt have that tag. for example, disco elysium

Rama is all about powershots

royal fern
#

thanks bro

royal fern
#

trip shot or twin shot?

#

same run

gray apex
royal fern
#

@gray apexIma use twin shot then

gray apex
#

Twin Perfect is arguably the strongest hammer combo for Rama

royal fern
#

Ima see how much damage it does

gray apex
#

It should be around 1k

royal fern
#

waitttt

gray apex
#

If you have nothing but a strong attack

royal fern
#

brooo I can get maimed strike

#

51% more attack

#

but every time I attack I take 4 damage for 3 encounters

gray apex
#

It's good

#

Just have to not die

#

Dash strike damage is also very good if ever offered

royal fern
#

can I still dash strike?

#

nvm

gray apex

It's the only thing you should be doing

I can hit 1.5k each shot

thank you

you're playing bow so maimed doesn't affect you much if you know what you're doing

triple shot technically has more damage potential but only if you’re good at the game

gray apex

Majority of the time it'll be less damage

vague mesa
#

I'm using the guan yu spear based on Nyaanyaa's guide, and is there a specific cast boon to get, or any that works?

gray apex
#

You dont need a cast just make sure you have access to boiling blood

#

If you happen to pick up a cast

#

If not then no stress, it's not your damage

vague mesa
#

ok, thanks!

#

would i be better to get higher rarity boons, or have them get pom upgrades?

gray apex
vague mesa
#

yeah, i am

gray apex
#

Nectar is almost always a good pick

vague mesa
#

thank you so much!

lean timber
#

nectar is one of my favorite bonuses

#

they're all pretty great

vague mesa
#

ok, ill have to take that all into consideration, again, thanks!

gray apex
#

Nectar can boost upcoming Hermes, Chaos and if you're hunting for a certain boon/duo it'll also get boosted

#

Just really good value all around

median cosmos
#

is Hades OST available on CD?

south mountain
#

Can someone confirm or deny that you can get the Splitting Headache duo boon with Hunter's Flare (the Aspect of Beowulf Artemis cast)?

#

the game's data seems to imply you can't

#
            PoisonCritVulnerabilityTrait =
            {
                OneFromEachSet =
                {
                    { "DionysusWeaponTrait", "DionysusRushTrait", "DionysusSecondaryTrait", "DionysusShoutTrait" },
                    { "ArtemisWeaponTrait", "ArtemisSecondaryTrait", "ArtemisRangedTrait", "ArtemisShoutTrait" },
                }
            },
#

it only lists ArtemisRangedTrait and not ShieldLoadAmmo_ArtemisRangedTrait which is the beowulf variant

#

this is seemingly the only exception in the game where it makes no sense at all for the beowulf shield cast variant to be excluded

#

because you can still get this trait all the same even with beowulf shield equipped using one of the other boons (artemis attack, secondary or shout)

#

is this an oversight or am I missing something?

latent moon
#

I think flare and cast are technically considered two different things

#

On the wiki it says you can get the duo through true shot (cast) but it doesn't mention hunters flare

mint coral
#

You can check the codex to see if its a requisite too

south mountain
latent moon
#

But on other duos it specifically mentions whether flare or casts works

mint coral
#

Also devs dont like the code being posted here from what i remember here

#

Can prob ask in modding server/speedrun server too

latent moon
#

At the same time tho there's better flares to take lol

south mountain
#

supposing it is an oversight, where should I report it?

latent moon
#

No clue

I don't think I'm ever getting rid of Dionysus' blessings. He always pops up at the start of every run for me if it's not an upgrade.

Yes. Oh that makes a lot of sense now.

Because that guarantees his boon at the very start of a run lmao

You can change keepsakes between biomes with a contractor upgrade btw

He allows you to disengage with enemies earlier if you let the hangover do the work

#

And scales with poms really well because it's always by a constant of 1 at higher levels

pulsar widget
#

Any gods you would suggest I use with him?

latent moon
#

Aphrodite and ares are good

#

Artemis is pretty solid depending on the build

#

Aphrodite makes hangover stack to 8
Ares makes the hangover tick at .35 instead of .5 seconds
Artemis gives you +1.5% crit chance per stack of hangover on an enemy

#

A popular hangover build is Chiron bow

#

Aphrodite atk and dio special

#

Generally don't need Artemis or ares duo for this build but if you happen to find them then you could get it if you want

is arthur even good?

warm nimbus
#

its ok

royal fern
#

its so slow

#

like damage is good tho

brisk trail
#

yeah arthur is good

lean timber
#

arthur is one of the harder hidden aspects to be successful with

#

but it also has terminal stygian blade disease so that's a big part of it

#

but it's sick i like it a lot. i just can't perform with it at the level required to make it look skillful

latent moon
#

Arthur is probably one of the easier hidden aspects to learn and use

#

And it's not bad either

#

Reduced damage field and bonus hp is great

lean timber
#

yeah but to really git gud and start shredding bosses and such takes some trial and error

#

at least it did for me

royal fern
#

beat hades

#

with arthur

#

hey guys what's your favourite hidden aspect and why? mine is either arthur for the insane health pool or lucifer for super soaker

rustic vale

They all go hard

brisk trail
#

rustic vale
#

I tend towards gilgamesh though

#

not sure why

brisk trail
#

ah okay then i unlocked rama a few days back and it's fine not the best for me

#

the longer charge is weird

#

but it at least looks cool

rustic vale
#

Rama works really well once you learn how to use it

brisk trail
#

ok then will try it

rustic vale
#

Dash striking is your key rather then standing there for the charge up

lean timber
#

i like rama, lucifer and gilgamesh the best (in that order)

#

they're all really cool

#

makes for a lot of playstyles

warm nimbus
#

gy, rama, and somewhat beo

short kernel
#

beo is my fav hidden

#

even though I'm bad at it

tall holly
lean timber
#

gy is cool but i have a serious skill issue with it so i don't use it too much

slim geyser
#

beo is the right answer

#

but im a rama stan

pastel monolith
#

the beo glitches make it insane.. poms are double and mirage shot does 100% more damage

#

i did over 16k damage once and 1 shotted phase 3 em4

signal aspen
#

the double poms glitch is only on trippy flare

#

there are also some bad glitches

#

like no iframes while your casts are exploding

#

and tiny flare

pastel monolith
#

does the mirage shot glitch happen on other casts?

#

i prett much use dio cast every time i take beo.. ocasionaly ill use aphro instead

#

i rly should try other ones but it seems like those 2 are by far the best

gray apex
#

Flood is considered the best

pastel monolith
#

interesting.. ill have to try it

#

whys it considered the best? surely trippy is the best with all the insane glitch power

gray apex
#

Trippy is inconsistent

#

It's not good with Infernal so you have to run Stygian

#

And with Stygian you have 1 cast only, so you have to reset for another

pastel monolith
#

i see

gray apex
#

And on top of that you need Mirage

#

Flood Flare is halfway through Mirage

#

You just need Artemis afterwards

#

It's just consistent and has good aoe, goes through walls etc

pastel monolith
#

i probably wont play beo for a while anyway im trying to increase my heat levels on every aspect till i can hopefully get 32 with each aspect
