vagrant crane
#

the cast hits dad but instantly the stone pops up

vagrant crane
#

if u still are looking for resources especially

#

but even if not the gold is nice

bold wadi
#

that was so fancy I still cant tell what happened

vagrant crane
#

and its not pommable

bold wadi
bold wadi
vagrant crane
bold wadi
#

tho in this case i would pom only the cast anyway

bold wadi
vagrant crane
#

but yea on hera u really wanna pom the cast

vagrant crane
#

more pommables csn clog up the pool and make it possible to not see the cast on a pom screen

#

so unpommables are good

bold wadi
#

thats kinda confusing

vagrant crane
#

its like

#

if you have 3 or less pommables

#

they are all guaranteed to show up on any given pom screen

#

but if you have 4, one needs to be excluded

#

5 excludes 2

#

etc

#

so on things like hera where u really need poms, you want to limit your pom pool

bold wadi
#

ohh

#

yeah it makes sense actually

#

basically the less pommeable poms i have the better

#

or a max of 3

vagrant crane
#

yeah

bold wadi
#

ngl i feel pretty smart for knowing this now even tho it wasnt my own discovery šŸ˜Ž

#

welp, should I go for demeter keepsake now in elysium?

#

and unfortunately I did use a death defiance at the very last end of the hydra bosses but its fine i guess

#

demeter it is

vagrant crane
bold wadi
#

or that

#

for the +1 cast crystal mostly?

#

i think purse or skelly, since i already have a lot of money i ll go skelly

Hey everyone šŸ‘‹

New player here and quick question

I dont exactly make the difference between Upgrading the level of a perk or Changing it’s rarity

Can someone explain ? šŸ«µā™„ļø

lucid oar
#

Difference depends a lot on which boon it is

#

Levelling up a boon is far more common in a run than increasing its rarity

#

But at the end of the day, both are just stat increases with varying strength

south sonnet
# elfin locust Hey everyone šŸ‘‹ New player here and quick question I dont exactly make the di...

upgrading and pomming both do the same effect(excluding hermes boons)
the main differences are:
more boons are unpommable(like all hermes ones, life affirmation, and sure footing)
rarity has a reasonable limit(heroic, duo, legendary)
rarity increases the base stats by a percent(so like lightning strike gets 25% more base damage each rarity)
poms get weaker the more you have, so a boon's damage might go like this: 100->160->202

tight basin
#

for a lot of stuff, the difference between a rarity and 1 pom is the same, so at eury it's generally just better to take the poms since it'll hit more stuff
a couple things do like rarity a lot, so if you dont have a lot of boons and willing to take the gamble then taking the rarity upgrade can be worth it

south sonnet
#

i generally go rarity since poms fall off

elfin locust
#

Ty very much for the explanations @tight basin & @south sonnet

#

@lucid oar also šŸ™Œ

south sonnet
#

np

icy pine
#

Yo šŸ’€
That's one insane build

vagrant crane
#

it was alright

ivory turtle
#

K question

#

What's a good build to use to go for curse of drowning? I'm thinking Beo but Idk if there's something better out there

south sonnet
#

achilles

#

or poseidon if youre lazy

ivory turtle
#

Oh??

ivory turtle
south sonnet
#

nope

ivory turtle
#

Oh lol

south sonnet
#

poseidon just has a base 10-50% cast damage buff

ivory turtle
#

AHHHH that's true

#

Yeah I'll probably do achilles

south sonnet
#

pos is a bit better before curse, achilles is far better after

#

achilles/hera/beo are the general go to aspects for casts

ivory turtle
#

And Talos, right?
... right??

#

(rip Talos)

tight basin
ivory turtle
#

Oh dw I know

#

It's just so sad that Talos is that bad

tight basin
#

it do be like that

vagrant crane
#

no other option

#

its supposed to be decent on achilles

shrewd isle
#

hey im looking to play spin to win guan yu for fun

#

ik it starts with athena or zeus attack or smth but im not sure where to go after that

#

are there any duos or any other core boons i should aim for

ivory turtle
#

K someone correct me if this sucks but

#

If you do Athena attack put Arty on special and go for Deadly Reversal

#

Maybe Aphro dash to make Heart Rend possible

#

Heart Rend is fun but absolutely overkill lol

shrewd isle
#

ooh deadly reversal sounds hella fun

zenith fractal
vagrant crane
#

fists are not real

zenith fractal
#

So true

dusty vector
#

What are some good boons for attack on fists demeter aspect

dapper harness
#

Ares attk aiming for ME

#

or Zeus attk with more Zeus boons

#

static discharge, double strike, splitting bolt are the main ones

#

ond pom static as much as u can

dusty vector
#

okay

#

for some reason i never get static on poms whenever i have it

proper furnace
proper furnace
#

selling stuff that aren't helping much but can be pommed helps

uneven basalt
#

splash dash also important

eager flint
#

damn, why does serrating point slash you dash distance like that

#

It's not even that good in the first place

#

like, it's good, but it's no twin shot or clockets or whatever

#

compare it with double-edge, which gives 220% damage with no downside

#

also yes I'm salty because I tried a Hades spear run with serrated point and got my bottom handed to me

ivory turtle
#

Between explosive triple and point blank, point blank is the correct take on zag bow right?

tight basin
#

triple works

#

you kinda have to like

#

stand on top of them for big damage tho lmao

#

but either would be fine probably

ivory turtle
#

Gooootcha! Went with point blank lol

#

bruh got epic RD

#

First chamber in Asphodel too

#

RD applies long enough for zag bow dash strikes right?

vagrant crane
#

yes

#

just dash out of them

ivory turtle
#

Ohhhhh

#

Uhhhhhh explosive or flurry with this build? Explosive would be hilarious but Idk if it's the right call

#

My only other option is Relentless and uhh I'm not playing Chiron or Rama here

#

I think flurry is probably the best call

tight basin
#

yeah flurry

#

explosive is a good pick if you have twin/triple for zag bow

#

flurry is also good there tho

ivory turtle
#

Agh it feels weird not being able to charge lol

#

But not in a bad way

#

And after all of that I threw bouldy

quartz pebble
#

What’s the best dark mirror setup? I’m just starting to get into heat runs

tight basin
quartz pebble
#

Thanks

iron oxide
#

whats the best weapon/aspect for demeter cast builds

#

i need to get the duo boons

tight basin
#

Achilles

#

150% bonus cast damage is kinda a lot

upbeat pagoda
#

hey

#

what does the orange drink do

brisk grail
#

If you mean nectar, you give it to people to show your affection and appreciation for them.

upbeat pagoda
#

i got 8 of them fighting the warrior and the minatour

#

not nectar

brisk grail
#

That's ambrosia, same as nectar but for the last few hearts.

#

You can also level up companions with it, once you unlock them.

upbeat pagoda
#

so i should gift nectars at every chance i get?

#

or are there specific characters

brisk grail
#

I'd say to give it every chance you have.

#

If you want a specific companion you might want to look up which friendships give you each companion bc not every character gives you one.

upbeat pagoda
#

who should i prioritize

#

for damage straight up

brisk grail
#

||Meagara.||

#

Best dmg companion.

south sonnet
#

in order of importance imo, the first 2 can be swapped

upbeat pagoda
#

thanks

#

how many nectars does it take to use it ntw

#

btw

south sonnet
#

6

#

unless its dad, then ||2||

#

youll also have to complete a task for each character to start giving ambrosia

upbeat pagoda
#

im forever in you guys' debt nectar

south sonnet
#

the important ones all have prophecies though

brisk grail
#

I'm only missing Achilles and Sisyphus right now. They're also the last 3 achievements left for me to 100%.

south sonnet
#

i still need 30% butterfly and all maxed keepsakeszagsad

brisk grail
#

Finally got Aphro and Artemis favor not long ago.

#

Only missing Achilles, Patroclus and Sisyphus.

south sonnet
#

im missing all the bad ones, dad, and a few rank 2 gods like dem, dio, and chaos

brisk grail
#

Right, I forgot I havent gotten Demeter either.

#

I just need to unlock the locked heart but haven't gotten the right dialogue yet.

brisk grail
#

I was talking about the full hearts medal lol.

south sonnet
#

for full hearts all ive got left is 1 ambrosia on cerb

brisk grail
#

For the 30% butterfly I think I used either the bow or the rail and just played really slowly and carefully.

ivory turtle
#

Wh

#

I just got epic RD and hyperdash twice in a row

#

(exclusive access helped but... um)

ivory turtle
#

I have an addiction and it is tempest flourish on aspect of Zeus

#

is it supposed to be good? no

#

Does it actually kinda work for some stupid reason? yes

zenith fractal
proper furnace
#

Zeus shield kinda really good

#

You can make any of the specials work

ivory turtle
#

I love Zeus shield it's just such a good weapon
Gotta have explosive return tho

vagrant crane
#

athena special is the worst

#

because of that god forlorn noise

#

it clacks super loud every time it spins

ivory turtle
#

I've never done athena special Zeus shield

vagrant crane
#

its usually when ur doing ME with doom atk

#

i prefer doom spec

analog mauve
#

ive never done special zeus shield

wind glen
#

does the hermes' attack speed boon make you charge a bow attack faster?

vagrant crane
#

only standing strikes

wind glen
#

thank you

summer wadi
#

so whats the best aspect for the Rail? or at least the most fun. its the only one I have left for master of arms and I've tried escaping with Eris but it was dreadful

lucid oar
#

Hestia is the aspect that plays the least similar to eris so u might like that

south sonnet
# summer wadi so whats the best aspect for the Rail? or at least the most fun. its the only on...

dashing makes you immune to damage during the dash, but that immunity is removed when you attack during a dash(dashstrike). that may have been your problem, or maybe just some build issue.

on eris, you want to get zeus on attack, and get splitting bolt(his legendary). youll also want poseidon on dash. from there, you can do whatever. the gods that are most picked are: demeter(ravaneous will, nourished soul), artemis(crits for damage), and aphrodite(damage reduction, more special damage for if you get cluster rockets, and smoldering air)

for hammers, you want delta chamber(no more reloading, and you no longer lose immunity frames, or iframes, when dash striking), cluster bomb+rockets(big special damage), not spread fire or hazard bomb(those mess things up, and lock out good hammers)

for combat, you want to shoot until you have no ammo, reload, and quickly special to cancel the reloading animation so you can move again. you can also dash to cancel reload animation

barren horizon
#

any fun builds with the aspect of eris?

eager flint
#

zeus attack, clockets, and then kinda whatever you're set already

barren horizon
#

I was thinking about a sea storm build if I take Zeus at the start

eager flint
#

iirc tidal dash doesn't open sea storm

#

so it's kinda hard to get it

#

you could take flood shot I guess

barren horizon
#

yeh but at that point it wouldn't really make sense to go for sea storm

#

Zeus+whatever_the_run_gives_me then

analog mauve
#

Start ares and go merciful end

tight basin
#

but yeah since all the poseidon cores suck except the dash, you'd generally never aim to get sea storm unless it was on accident

eager flint
#

flood shot is tolerable ime

tight basin
#

no aspect really uses pos special tho

#

like yeah you can pick it up but like why lmao

analog mauve
#

chiron trollgebusiness

tight basin
#

oh true i guess

#

where are you putting the zeus core tho lmao

#

flurry attack?

analog mauve
#

aid and dash good for double strike

tight basin
#

i forgot call exists fair enough

eager flint
#

zeus call is my core for him 99% of the time

marble fiber
#

why cant i post pictures here to discuss builds? i feel like that would make it a lot easier to see why my build isnt working haha

south sonnet
#

you can put embeds though

marble fiber
#

what is an embed? šŸ™‚

south sonnet
#

a link basically

#

so you post the image to a server/alt, and copy the link

marble fiber
#

oh what do u use for that mostly?

south sonnet
#

or you can use things like imgur

south sonnet
south sonnet
marble fiber
#

great tip thanks!

#

can u tell me what im doing wrong from the boons ive chosen? i thought this hammer with 200% strike dmg would benefit from artemis dash, but overall my damage and defense is kinda weak

south sonnet
#

and finally, you want to use the flip version of olympian favor(dark foresight), which gives you LOTS more gold laurels

valid dagger
#

your build is actually decent

marble fiber
valid dagger
#

just very minimal, would like more scaling

marble fiber
south sonnet
#

pom

valid dagger
#

ways to increase your damage, could be lots of things

marble fiber
#

oh yeah for sure

valid dagger
#

rarity/ poms/ mirror/ chaos/ hermes

marble fiber
#

beat him with 15hp left PHEWWWW

quartz pebble
#

Which gods work best with each weapon? Kinda confused on what to take

eager flint
#

depends on aspect, if you're that far

#

but mostly you can find everything here

quartz pebble
#

Im trying to max all my keepsakes so I just have to rely on luck for the first rooms ig

eager flint
#

some weapons are not as dependant on specific builds as others

#

I'm mostly thinking of Hestia tbh

#

if you don't have aspects, then bow is probably my go-to

quartz pebble
#

I’ll try that

marble fiber
#

Okay this has to be the most OP run ive had out of the 28:

#

first time getting hunting blades, heartrend or vicious cycle. Achilles spear as well this is nuts.

eager flint
#

GG ! yeah this combo is stupidly broken

marble fiber
#

yeah i had never taken down bosses THIS fast

#

so much fun ahahahha

south sonnet
quartz pebble
#

is there a recommended guide to easiest pact options

proper furnace
quartz pebble
#

ok cool

marble fiber
#

Sheesh

#

first time using zeus shield its kinda odd to use but it definitely does DAMAGE

marble fiber
proper furnace
#

Tidal dash poms are great

eager flint
#

Yeah, I was just making an inside joke about that time jazz asked "where dash poms" on reddit

crimson ether
#

The shield is the last weapon I need for a sub 10 on all of them but I can’t seem to be even remotely fast with it, any suggestions for builds?

ornate folio
#

hmm does anyone know what the typical combat combo is for the sheild, for example for the sword it's dash attack if people are attacking and special if they aren't for more damage.

vagrant crane
#

for shield it's called have cshot

#

otherwise do dash strikes and standing strikes for damage

ornate folio
#

like mostly you go: dash attack x2 -> simple attack -> special

#

and special?

vagrant crane
#

on shield?

ornate folio
#

yeah

vagrant crane
#

there is no reason to press special on base shield

#

zag or chaos aspect

#

on zeus and hidden there are

ornate folio
#

yeah talking bout zeus

vagrant crane
#

on zeus you can manipulate it during any combo

#

keep it near you

ornate folio
vagrant crane
#

?'

ornate folio
#

in sheild i mean

#

iirc you have to hold and then wait for it to charge

vagrant crane
#

no

#

thats bull rush

ornate folio
#

haven't played in a while but that's what i remember

vagrant crane
#

which you do for defense

ornate folio
#

AHHH

vagrant crane
#

because it blocks

#

unless you have charged shot hammer

#

in which case just spam that

ornate folio
#

my bad

vagrant crane
#

this is what a decent zeus build looks like for rotation

ornate folio
quartz pebble
#

if i had all the best aspects on all of my weapons (including the hidden ones) which ones should get titan blood first? only maxxed one is zag fists but could level demeter

plain river
#

Nyaanyaa mewmew had a really good table for describing how your blood actually impacted the strength of the aspect

#

Looking for it now

#

I can’t seem to find it in any of the pins anymore

quartz pebble
#

i see it in new player pins but it dosent include hidden aspects

plain river
#

For hidden aspects

#

Luci and Rama really want the blood

#

arthur works as arthur without much blood

#

GY ā€œneedsā€ blood to be usable

#

you can use it w/ out if you don’t have a skill issue

#

beo doesn’t really care about blood, more blood is better but the main focus is casting

quartz pebble
#

only hidden aspect ive heard is worth is shield, bow is sometimes useable over hera

plain river
#

gilga is gilga

#

Wdym by ā€œusableā€

#

Every weapon is ā€œusableā€

quartz pebble
#

i mean optimal sorry

#

rama and hera are tied for best bow aspect ive heard

plain river
#

Rama & Beowulf are great, Lucifer and Guan-yu are good, and Arthur is fine, Gilgamesh is bouldy (for ā€œoptimalityā€, not for blood investment)

#

like for spear I think GY is second after achilles

#

The hp nerf isn’t that bad if you just don’t get hit & built-in piercing explosive skewer is just beautiful

south sonnet
plain river
#

Zeus shield gets a relatively big boost in base damage

#

which is not what zeus shield really needs

south sonnet
#

beo doesnt really need blood to be good unless youre trying to go for a good time in tart
rama is quite nice
guan yu becomes useable
arthur is mid
gilg is useless
luci becomes really good(with triple bomb)

quartz pebble
#

I could do Rama but I already maxed hera so I feel like I should boost another weapon

plain river
#

Any other weapon in particular?

vagrant crane
#

just do beo

#

ez

plain river
#

the thing is

#

the blood -> value ratio on beo is low

vagrant crane
#

just level once

#

and then u dont need any other aspect ever

plain river
#

beo is so strong from casts that boosting the attack isn’t that big of a deal

quartz pebble
#

So any are good with me

vagrant crane
#

if ur maxing just do like hestia

plain river
#

You have no personal preference?

vagrant crane
#

maybe achilles

#

luci if u wanna play that

plain river
#

nem, gy, achilles, demeter, hestia & luci all get big value from levels

#

So does eris but eris is eris

vagrant crane
#

nem already starts out pretty good

plain river
#

what’s the base rate on nem?

vagrant crane
#

15%

quartz pebble

the banner ads

#

and the X is so tiny

#

same with if you ever decide you want to maybe filter anything

plain river
vagrant crane
#

yeah but its not like hestia where you get a 200% boost

plain river
#

true

#

But Hestia means they won’t be checking the sword hammer tierlist

quartz pebble
#

Hestia and Eris seem to both end up good at max level

#

Eris sooner than hestia

#

But I’ve heard a lot more about hestia than eris

plain river
#

Eris is super strong

#

Don’t get me wrong

#

But I think it’s a bit more satisfying to run something other then fds while hunting clockets

quartz pebble
#

Is hestia better or are they equal?

#

Same question for ramas and hera how tbh

plain river
#

Last I checked (7 months ago) eris was better if your goal is speed and hestia if you’re pushing higher heat

quartz pebble
#

Im not really a speedy clearer but maybe I should if I’m running tight scheduele pact

plain river
#

same thing with Rama and Hera iirc where Hera is speed, Rama is heat

#

Tbh without much time investmenr you should be able to fix up your runs to easily land you under 20m w/ any weapon

quartz pebble
#

Should I go for the higher heat aspects if I’m not really a speedrunner?

vagrant crane
#

thats what i did at first

#

and then i got bored after 50

plain river
vagrant crane
#

oh aspects

plain river
#

Hestia is in that area because it’s safer while being big damage

vagrant crane
#

most aspects are good at both if they are good at one

#

beo

#

hestia eris

plain river
#

eris wants you playing in melee & damage boosts are fast so works well for speed

vagrant crane
#

those are the only good aspects actually

#

all the other ones suck

#

and also hestia and eris suck too

#

use beo

plain river
#

Stop poisoning them

#

Use aspects regardless of their viability

#

It can be way fun to mix up how things go

#

W/ out being concerned w/ results

#

Hestia is higher heat then eris because it’s playstyle is safer, & Rama because it’s just consistent

vagrant crane
#

eris has 62

plain river
#

It has it

vagrant crane
#

just get dp

#

and +3

plain river
#

Like

vagrant crane
#

and everything else

plain river
#

actually I’m not that qualified to talk given it’s been about 7 months since I stopped keeping track of Hades

vagrant crane
#

rama also has 62

plain river
#

But just because someone has done something w/ x aspect

#

Doesn’t mean it’s necessarily the best aspect to attempt that with

vagrant crane
#

just like how hera sucks

plain river
#

did you change your name and pfp or

plain river
#

I would’ve kept them in my regular name but since they were doing away w/ account #’s I figured my name actually had to be typeable

#

Alr

#

Clearly if I boot up the game now

#

I’ll get the perfect zag sword - flurry, piercing wave, heroic swift strike run

vagrant crane
#

is that perfect

plain river
#

Uh

#

As the sword hammer tierlist guy

#

obviously

#

It lines up w/ everything outlined in the tierlist

plain river
#

(I was about to put in a disclaimer about it not actually being perfect when you asked)

plain river
south sonnet
#

all it takes is 30x20(600) monies and hoarding is better(unless attack boons trigger from wave)

vagrant crane
#

hoarding slash is not affected by literally anything

south sonnet
#

i know, talking about wave

plain river
#

Obols are meant to be spent

#

& you’ll get far more value from spending that 600

#

Also, no, attack boons don’t trigger off wave

#

Wave is just free damage

#

Hence why it’s so high up on the aforementioned tierlist (that can be found in Bananas 32 heat guide #notsponsored)

#

and was made by yours truly

plain river
#

My time speaks to that

south sonnet
#

rip

#

just zag sword being bad

plain river
#

The run time compared to my other runs is explanatory enough

plain river
#

since crit isn’t applied to hoarding

south sonnet
plain river
#

The only thing I think I can call myself an expert in is using shackle

south sonnet
#

im good at rav will

plain river
#

~10% of my 249 clears have been done w/ Shackle on the entire run

#

24 or 25

#

No actually it would be 26 I think

#

Because 24 of them were 20 heat or lower(lower was w/ spear) & 2 of them were 32

keen siren
#

is a 10 duo build possible or just really rare? I guess what I'm asking is, is if there is a duo cap?

plain river
#

You just need the stars to align w/ a 5 god pool

#

There isn’t a hard cap on duos but there is a limit to how many boons you can get at all in a run, since there are only so many rooms

crimson ether
#

AAAAAH I’m trying to get a sub 10 on shield as my last weapon for sub 10 on all, and my run was 10.00.44

#

AAAGH

proper furnace

Just one time save away

crimson ether
#

What’s funny is I think I stopped to fish in Tartarus

#

never thought I’d lose a run to fishing

eager flint
#

fishing pauses the timer

#

it still counts the time that you take to like go back and forth to the fishing spot

#

but while actually fishing the timer is paused

Chaos is just aspect of cshot splash dash

Aspectless shield is a good description of chaos aspect

zag shield right here

flat dmg upp

You still use it at least dusa

ocean cliff
#

people do?

#

iswear shield playrates are 70% beo 30% zeus

proper furnace
#

I mean both are aspect of Cshot at the end of the day

#

But you at least can use the +15 base dmg bonus

ocean cliff
#

:(

proper furnace
#

Also zag shield gets pulv blow which is funny

wind glen
#

aw cmon lets not be too harsh

its fun throwing 6 shields

jst realized i havent swapped keepsake from last runn so im running charon in tart

#

My 50 beo was without cshot, my current beo anyheat pb was cshotless bouldy

#

Sudden rush kinda safer cshot on beo ngl

wind glen

dang

ocean cliff

doesnt srush on beo equal more dmg

wind glen
#

idk if ill ever be able to do 50 heat

#

maybe one day the fates will let me

proper furnace

I did 50 with zag shield dusa

#

I'm like actually bad at beo

ocean cliff
#

same

#

lol!

wind glen
#

i feel like im bad but at least time wise i still do kinda well

plain river
#

Sudden rush isn’t really necessary since cshot is fast as is & you’re already firing @ point blank

zenith fractal
zenith fractal
#

Cshot removes bull rush iframes

#

Whereas sudden rush just makes you go fast

wind glen
#

hm

#

ig for high heat you could make a case for sudden rush being better than cshot

#

but for time id say cshot wins any day

sudden rush only makes it go farther faster, which is actually a timeloss since youll spend more time in the bull rush

If my anyheat beo got cshot at any point, it would have sub8-ed

(God damn FF is such a better category Bedge)

ok nvm

wind glen

šŸ‘€

wind glen
#

btw just remembered smth

#

zeus is rly good w cshot bc

#

unlike other shields

#

u can charge a bull rush whilst the special is out

#

so zeus cshot > chaos cshot ig

ocean cliff
#

yea yea

#

cshot on chaos is bad tbh

#

you cannot rush into enemies and shotgun them at point blank

zenith fractal
wind glen
#

thats mainly bc explosive return exists

zenith fractal
#

While for chaos, cshot is near-required for chaos at any difficulty or goal

wind glen

that or sudden rush ig

# ocean cliff dan haelian running ice chiron on 32heat

Alright, thing about haelian is that
1: he is very mechanically skilled
2: he orients his content to be more entertaining than informative, so he occasionally intentionally doesn't give some pieces of info because it would sound too rambly or would not fit with the style of the video. It also means he regularly showcases meme builds to show how varied builds can be in the game as opposed to showing the best options. This has qualities of its own, but should not be interpreted as genuine advice.
