pastel jolt
#

oh man

indigo compass
#

think it can drop anything

pastel jolt
ocean halo
#

i got ambrosia today

pastel jolt
#

(i'm using the bow)

errant narwhal
#

trial for sure

pastel jolt
#

i don't remember what the hammer options are for bow

ocean halo
#

well he might get multishot from hanner

rocky whale
#

Triple Shot, No charge, + to powershot

indigo compass
#

hammer is good tho:p

rocky whale
#

Extra damage on distant enemies is another?

pastel jolt
#

(they, tendai, if you're referring to me)

ocean halo
#

and mutishot is much better then any boon

errant narwhal
#

also 100% more dmg to armor now

rocky whale
#

oh and twice as many special projectiles

errant narwhal
#

but still you could probs buy a hammer later

pastel jolt
#

;3; this isn't making it any easier to choose

rocky whale
#

yeah I would probably take the trial but multishot is super good

turbid needle
#

Artemis boons are gud

errant narwhal
#

sparrow what if u get sweet surrender

rocky whale
#

you could get + to critical damage AND sweet surrender

errant narwhal
#

go for it

pastel jolt
#

i'm going for trial

turbid needle
#

And like I just found put you can shoot and dash to trigger hunter dash crit

pastel jolt
#

don't let me down y'all i'm trusting you

indigo compass
#

gl:p

errant narwhal
#

yessss wishing u the best boon luck

turbid needle
#

Charon can sell the hammer too

indigo compass
#

hope its not athena:po

turbid needle
#

We prayin

pastel jolt
#

alma

indigo compass
#

she gets real mad:p

pastel jolt
#

hey alma

errant narwhal
#

o no.....

pastel jolt
#

it's only a standard one not rare/epic but Hey

errant narwhal
#

still good tho

indigo compass
#

taker what u can get:p

#

what is the other god?

pastel jolt
#

oh artemis got SO mad

indigo compass
#

ah nice

turbid needle
#

Haha

indigo compass
#

dream scenario there

turbid needle
#

Never faced her

errant narwhal
#

o yeah they fiercely dislike each other

indigo compass
#

i ahdthena and artemis yesterday

#

wish i had picked athena first:p

pastel jolt
#

more critical damage? YES PLS ARTEMIS.

turbid needle
#

In the new patch notes

#

What does "normalized base damage" mean

#

in reference to zeus boon changes

pastel jolt
#

now i have triple shot

turbid needle
#

Damn

#

true shot makes cast have a chance to deal crits right

#

Oh I got athena vs artemis in asphodel

#

Does athena deflect ?

autumn yarrow
#

yes

indigo compass
#

yes

#

go with ahtena first:p

#

her enemies deflect:p

hushed parrot
#

Kimo I think it makes Cast home into the nearest enemy and deal more damage

turbid needle
#

Well I definitely don't want a taste of one of my arrows

errant narwhal
#

i told u sparrow........ it was worth it

#

i sent u all my luck

indigo compass
#

had to deal with athena yesterday it was a mess:p

turbid needle
#

So how does divine protection work ?

#

Legendary boon yall

pearl willow
#

pretty sure athena enemies only deflect attacks in that they don't take damage, they don't actually reflect

autumn yarrow
#

^

indigo compass
#

they do:p

pastel jolt
#

i beat meg

indigo compass
#

nice

pastel jolt
#

i wonder if it's worth switching out the aphrodite keepsake for something else ๐Ÿค”

errant narwhal
#

meg's?

autumn yarrow
#

imo it's always worth

errant narwhal
#

or artemis if u wanna play it safer and keep critting

autumn yarrow
#

there's no guarentee you are going to get more aphrodite boons

pastel jolt
#

alas i am a Weenie who doesn't like being at low health

indigo compass
#

haha go for the collar then:p

errant narwhal
#

yeah i feel that

turbid needle
#

A Critical hit (usually shortened to crit) is a modifier that causes foes to take more damage than usual. A critical attack will deal 200% damage to an enemy. Artemis' has several Boons which cause attacks to have a Critical damage chance.

indigo compass
#

thats what i did till i beat hydra tho:p

errant narwhal
#

now that its 40% health it feels less risky tho

turbid needle
#

anything I should add to the crit section?

#

I think I got everything

pastel jolt
#

..........so apparently if you change away from a keepsake, it won't let you change back to it on that run

errant narwhal
#

yeaaaah

exotic hazel
#

Yeah, I always thought that was a weird effect

pastel jolt
#

THAT would have been nice to know before i started dithering between keepsakes!

errant narwhal
#

seems good kimo!

#

oh no did they all expend

exotic hazel
#

Because Ive checked and it DOES seem to guarantee that god spawns their boon first on Asphodel again

pastel jolt
#

i think i'm gonna go with distant memory

dire crystal
#

thats been a thing for awhile lol

silk torrent
#

Since when does the bow pierce ???? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

autumn yarrow
#

@turbid needle i believe artemis boons can let you increase crit damage as well? so it can be more than 200%

dire crystal
#

since this update

indigo compass
#

patch

dire crystal
#

new change

silk torrent
#

Oh I didn't see it omg

#

this is insane

indigo compass
#

:p

turbid needle
#

You are correct

#

Hm

pastel jolt
#

oh my god this loadout just obliterated the first room of asphodel,,,,,,,,, i foresee Good Things

turbid needle
#

I didnt write the artemis boons section of the wiki

dire crystal
#

goood

autumn yarrow
#

I would just mention it has the potential to be increased ๐Ÿคท

turbid needle
#

but for true shot the person wrote the damage increase instead of the chance for cast to crit??

errant narwhal
#

get em sparrow

dire crystal
#

there is an artemis boon that buffs crit damage, and another that buffs damage vs armor

#

theres no chance for cast to crit mod?

indigo compass
#

no

autumn yarrow
#

Isn't there another one that lets ALL damage have a chance to crit?

exotic hazel
#

No, but there is a general "all damage" crit mod

indigo compass
#

cast is allready strong with poms

exotic hazel
#

ye

turbid needle
#

its true shot

pastel jolt
#

hey remember when you said it wasn't likely for me to get more aphro boons

dire crystal
#

yeah, that wasnt a question it was like confused at kimo what they said

exotic hazel
#

Lady Artemis is life

uneven shuttle
#

Hello yes, I'm here, I made the tables
@turbid needle True shot deals extra damage and seeks enemies, it doesn't crit

turbid needle
#

the third boon on her table

pastel jolt
dire crystal
#

true shot does not do that

#

what

turbid needle
#

oh okay

uneven shuttle
#

Not without the "all damage can crit" boon, at least

exotic hazel
#

TAKE THE RIGHT ONE

#

TIS A DUEL

dire crystal
#

it just buffs cast damage and makes it home

pastel jolt
#

BUT I'M SCARED OF GOD TRIALS

exotic hazel
#

But two buuuufffffs

autumn yarrow
#

it could be the boat

pastel jolt
#

.....oh well, i'm pretty powerful

turbid needle
#

@uneven shuttle you also had the true shot description saying "your special can now crit" which I assumed you meant to say cast

pastel jolt
#

i think i can take it

indigo compass
#

lol

autumn yarrow
#

there's the boat in asphodel too, it's not always a trial

exotic hazel
#

Aphrodite's trials are easy

pastel jolt
#

it's between artemis and aphrodite again

uneven shuttle
#

Oh, did I copy the wrong desc.?

#

one sec

turbid needle
#

you may

indigo compass
#

not with athena :p

exotic hazel
#

dont be mean to lady Artemis ๐Ÿ”ช

turbid needle
#

it was the exact same as deadly flourish

pastel jolt
#

i'm not used to having girls fight over me ;w;

exotic hazel
#

lol

turbid needle
#

thats why i was confused because it said cast had a chance to crit

dire crystal
#

lol

pastel jolt
#

oh hey it's not the boat, it's a normal room

#

phew

uneven shuttle
#

gimme 1 second

dire crystal
#

are all the images not loading properly on the wiki or are they all missing

exotic hazel
#

As far as I can tell, the boat is a specific room number, like the skeleton twins in tartarus

dire crystal
#

cuz ill post the screenshots for em if you need

pastel jolt
autumn yarrow
#

agreed

dire crystal
#

nice!

turbid needle
#

Does artemis divine protection boon (20 sec invincibility) just sometimes triggers
Don't think there were reasons

exotic hazel
#

Were you blocking?

turbid needle
#

Noice

tiny barn
#

Congrats sparrow

exotic hazel
#

Ive noticed some of the "on damage" effects trigger when blocking with aegis

uneven shuttle
#

Fixed

turbid needle
#

Well the bubble was there stallord I still dodged

ocean halo
#

dammit

dire crystal
#

mmmm

autumn yarrow
#

๐Ÿค”

dire crystal
#

watch yourself tendai

exotic hazel
#

Ah, what happened is that you probably got hit, but the new I frames for dodge didnt make you take damage

dire crystal
#

nice

exotic hazel
#

but the shield still procced

dire crystal
#

thats real cool

pastel jolt
dire crystal
#

NICE

turbid needle
#

Also I walked in lava and after 20 sec I suffered damage but it had stacked (as ewpected but loqt a defiance hehe)

uneven shuttle
#

Also, @turbid needle if it looks like the description doesn't match the data values, chances are it's the description that's wrong. I started out with the data values and then looked up the relevant descriptions ๐Ÿ˜…

errant narwhal
#

YO SPARROW

pastel jolt
#

ohhhhh

turbid needle
#

2 legendary* boons

autumn yarrow
#

wait sparrow that legendary may actually be a little more underwhelming than u think

turbid needle
#

That's madness

autumn yarrow
#

sadly

errant narwhal
#

i gave you too MUCH of my luck

indigo compass
#

clearly alma:p

dire crystal
#

support fire is pretty alright

exotic hazel
#

15 homing damage on every hit is still good

pastel jolt
#

okay but i'm already getting a crit on basically every hit and i'm not casting

autumn yarrow
#

I would just take crit here

dire crystal
#

yeah

indigo compass
#

am i the only one who never got a legendary boon?

autumn yarrow
#

ah

indigo compass
#

in like 60+ runs

exotic hazel
#

Im also not sure if support fire hits count as attack

errant narwhal
#

please screenshot your loadout when youre at the room b4 hydra

pastel jolt
#

also

errant narwhal
#

its quite literally legendary

dire crystal
#

support fire hits dont?

exotic hazel
#

because if they dooooo, omg, aphrodite procs everywhere

dire crystal
#

i dont think

#

god yeah

exotic hazel
#

ah boo

pastel jolt
exotic hazel
#

room 3?

errant narwhal
#

yep probably

autumn yarrow
#

4 death defiance :^)

exotic hazel
#

I think room 3 or 4 is still too early, its probably a mad dad room

turbid needle
#

@uneven shuttle should we make sure all legendary boons are at the bottom of the table?

errant narwhal
#

boat feels much less scary now but charon is A Friend

pastel jolt
#

iiii don't remember how many rooms in i am

turbid needle
#

idk how legendaries work

exotic hazel
#

id go charon then

uneven shuttle
#

Right now I have boons in the same order they appear in the relevant text files.

autumn yarrow
#

wait yea

#

you get charon and boat

turbid needle
#

that works too

exotic hazel
#

free break, and athena boons arent very good imo

autumn yarrow
#

at the same time normally

turbid needle
#

legs dont have common, rare, etc rarities do they?

errant narwhal
#

nope

uneven shuttle
#

I think with one exception, since poseidon has the cast / dash abilities out of order from the rest

turbid needle
#

hmm

dire crystal
#

athena is alright to get a boon or two

turbid needle
#

i may add the legendary border to those boon icons

errant narwhal
#

i like deflect, her cast is neat

uneven shuttle
#

Legendary is its own tier

indigo compass
#

i like the deflect on normal atks

exotic hazel
#

deflect on attack and deflect on hit are both good, but everything else is kinda meh

dire crystal
#

deflect is super useful versus some enemy types

pastel jolt
#

i already have boons on my dash, attack, and special; i think athena could onyl boon my cast at this point and where's the use of that

exotic hazel
#

especially if you get the money boon

turbid needle
#

should we remove the common, rare, epic thing from any legendary boon categories?

dire crystal
#

the deflect cast is incredible

exotic hazel
#

"here kid, buy yourself something good"

autumn yarrow
#

if u need deflect

indigo compass
#

athena cast is pretty good:p

autumn yarrow
#

she can also give u damage resistance

pastel jolt
#

hhhhrhrhrjhtjrh i. i can't choooose

uneven shuttle
#

Right now the table doesn't support Legendary quality. Ideally yes, but I can't do that, I don't think.

dire crystal
#

a lot of people can give damage resist

indigo compass
#

just throw one in the middle of a major witch spam:p

exotic hazel
#

but like...not a lot of DR

turbid needle
#

hmm

errant narwhal
#

shop! shop! shop!

uneven shuttle
#

Haven't looked into how the table format was made

turbid needle
#

might have to get pie to set that up

uneven shuttle
#

I didn't do it

errant narwhal
#

sparrow im so invested in this run dkfjgh

turbid needle
#

also question

exotic hazel
#

Her DR is better than aphros, but its still not great

uneven shuttle
#

I suggested some changes to Pie5 though

pastel jolt
#

this is my first run that's looking likely to get to hydra

turbid needle
#

do tier 2 boons only come in rare or higher

silk torrent
#

This new bow is insanely stupid op

autumn yarrow
#

no

silk torrent
#

why did they do that ?

uneven shuttle
#

They do not

autumn yarrow
#

sparrow just screenshotted

indigo compass
#

i think trhey can allways be common

autumn yarrow
#

a tier 2 that was common

errant narwhal
#

charon might sell a boon and then u dont miss out at all

turbid needle
#

alright

#

im probably gonna add the boon borders

pastel jolt
#

๐Ÿค” you're Right

#

and he might sell a pom to upgrade something i already have....

uneven shuttle
#

Tier 2 can be common, TBH I'm not 100% sure what tiers do, apart from change some 'cost' value from 30 to 60

turbid needle
#

are there some boons that only come in rare or epic similar to legendaries

pastel jolt
#

going shop then

uneven shuttle
#

but I haven't checked what that cost does

#

if anything

autumn yarrow
#

you have 200g, charon should be solid regardless of what you miss from boat

errant narwhal
#

you still have all ur death defiances too........

pastel jolt
#

pom!

errant narwhal
#

YES

#

i believe in u..................

uneven shuttle
#

@turbid needle nope; It's either common/rare/epic, or just legendary on its own

pastel jolt
#

sweet surrender, clean kill, heartbreak flourish......... i think i'm going to go for that delicious 75% critical damage

uneven shuttle
#

So if you can have 2 different type of table rows in the same table, it'd make sense to have a different type for legendaries

pastel jolt
#

oh my god this room is just ull of numbskulls

#

pierce time

#

dumb question, but, uh, indulge the noob who has never reached hydra much less beaten it

#

how do i know when i'm in the room before it so i can screenshot this loadout

exotic hazel
#

There are a bunch of hydra statues

errant narwhal
#

hydra heads on the side of the boat yeah

#

also, empty. pom or shop probably

kind marten
#

With Hunter's Dash Bow, what is better, Perfect Shot (250% DMG) or Triple Shot?

grand cave
#

triple shot is always the best

errant narwhal
#

oh also storyteller goes like "theres an awful beast waiting ahead" or something

turbid needle
#

I think we should we able to just replace the common rare etc text with an orange legendary text in that box

kind marten
#

aight cool ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

pastel jolt
dire crystal
#

the door is an elite darkness

#

but sparkly

errant narwhal
#

all the poms

grand cave
#

@kind marten because if you hit all three shots at close range then its 300% as opposed to 250, plus room clear in asphodel becomes much more bearable

kind marten
#

Jesus Christ, the crit Triple Shot is disgusting. Good Lord.

uneven shuttle
#

That'd be ideal. If you look at the source, currently I have a legendary = property in each, but it isn't displayed anywhere, obviously (I instead copied it over to the Notes, too).

dire crystal
#

yeah i just got crit triple shot

#

its great

turbid needle
#

Yeah Iโ€™m not too sure how that whole template works

uneven shuttle
#

Neither am I tbqh

turbid needle
#

Pie is a whiz at that stuff so Iโ€™m sure he can figure it out

pastel jolt
#

oh my god i have heartbreak strike up to level 5

limpid ember
#

nice!

pastel jolt
#

oh my god zagreus is so salty about the storyteller and his spoilers

limpid ember
#

I had epic heartbreak to 3 once, it was crazy

pastel jolt
#

okay

errant narwhal
#

get that hydra................

pastel jolt
#

alma asked me to screenshot my build

errant narwhal
#

this LUCK

pastel jolt
#

i cannot believe i got aphrodite and artemis trial twice

uneven shuttle
#

That's some good RNG ๐Ÿ‘

errant narwhal
#

u got this kill it dead!!!

pastel jolt
#

should i record so y'all can laugh at me flailing my buttons

turbid needle
#

unhealthy fixation is aphs leg right?

errant narwhal
#

YEAH

pastel jolt
#

yeah

errant narwhal
#

record pls

pastel jolt
#

i got both legendaries from aph and art in the same room

uneven shuttle
#

@turbid needle yup

dire crystal
#

incredible

errant narwhal
#

i am cheering u on

hushed parrot
#

I was wondering what Kimo was referring to as "leg" and now I'm laughing

#

Aph's leg

uneven shuttle
#

yeah, took me a sec too

turbid needle
#

can you post the unhealthy fixation ss again

#

๐Ÿ˜ฉ

turbid needle
#

thanks

uneven shuttle
#

@turbid needle Don't worry about the icon border IMO.

loud sparrow
#

my relationship to videogames in a nutshelll dusa

turbid needle
#

im worrying ๐Ÿ˜ญ

#

that dusa emoji can represent so many different emojis

uneven shuttle
#

So long as it only lists Legendary, maybe has a bold yellow/orange text color on the name too

errant narwhal
#

all human emotions can be encapsulated with dusa

turbid needle
#

i was thinking of adding borders to every boon

#

thought it might just look nicer

errant narwhal
uneven shuttle
#

But keeping all the icons the same size makes sense to me, so I wouldn't bother adding the border I don't think

#

Ah, maybe

silk torrent
#

So the bow has now the best dps

dire crystal
#

dusa is best

pastel jolt
#

I DID IT

silk torrent
#

And it's from range

uneven shuttle
#

But then you'd have the common border on the rest?

errant narwhal
#

YES

silk torrent
#

And it pierces

pastel jolt
#

FIRST HYDRA KILL Y'ALL

dire crystal
#

beat hydra?

turbid needle
#

just not sure what border i would do for the other boons

errant narwhal
#

YES

dire crystal
#

NICE

silk torrent
#

Wtf did they do

pastel jolt
#

I'M SHAKING

turbid needle
#

either common or epic

dire crystal
#

congratz!

#

welcome to the club!

uneven shuttle
#

Probably common if you did that

errant narwhal
#

I WANNA SEEEEE

dire crystal
#

๐Ÿ˜„

pastel jolt
#

okay so i haven't even watched any hydra video

#

so

uneven shuttle
#

I'd just leave it as-is

pastel jolt
#

so i had no idea what i was doing??

dire crystal
#

yeah!!

#

you did it!!

pastel jolt
#

god i hope that recorded

dire crystal
#

๐Ÿ˜ƒ

uneven shuttle
#

dusa๐Ÿ‘

errant narwhal
#

my heart still hammers in my chest whenever i get to it

#

i beat meg consistently after 50 runs now but i only got the hydra twice and got to the hydra like 5 times

turbid needle
#

@uneven shuttle its up with the border

#

Thoughts?

errant narwhal
#

nice!!

#

i think the legendary should be last tho

#

and also just have legendary listed in the rarity, tho i assume ur already on it

dire crystal
#

woooo

pastel jolt
#

that was escape attempt #29, btw

dire crystal
#

ive beaten hydra 4 times, gotten to em like 30 probably lol

#

though i presume ill be able to beat it more consistently with the changes

errant narwhal
#

YO

dire crystal
#

cuz ive beaten it 2/3 of the time since the changes went live

errant narwhal
#

thats amazing sparrow

dire crystal
#

yeah!

uneven shuttle
#

Think I still prefer borderless, but I might be weird here ๐Ÿค”
@errant narwhal Probably, the list is currently just in the order it appears in a file.
As for the legendary row's formatting, the name ought to be gold/orange, like it is in-game, matching the quality color.

lost ore
#

Yeah, I'm usually able to consistently get to Hydra these days, but I'm excited to see how the changes affect my win rate

pastel jolt
#

i can pretty consistently get to meg, but that's my first-ever time getting to the hydra

#

i barely ever get boons on my runs so asphodel just............. eugh

errant narwhal
#

๐ŸŽ‰ ๐ŸŽ‰ ๐ŸŽ‰

pastel jolt
#

IT RECORDED

errant narwhal
#

YES

pastel jolt
#

seeing total completed runs: 1 feels pretty darn good

proud storm
#

my GOD this wiki is gorgeous

lost ore
#

Yeah it does! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

dire crystal
#

niceeeee

#

woooooo

#

yeah it feels good lol

errant narwhal
#

i have 2 but the first was before it counted the weapons :((

dire crystal
#

same

errant narwhal
#

it was varatha tho

dire crystal
#

its funny to see that i beast the game 3 times without a weapon

#

lol

indigo compass
#

yeah for me its 8 with 1 sword kill and 1 bow:p

errant narwhal
#

so i have varatha and stygius

turbid needle
#

Fellas! were almost done with icons for aphro

#

does anyone remember what icons go with which>?

proud storm
#

i have different league's icon i think

errant narwhal
#

yess ๐Ÿ’ช

turbid needle
#

Dying Lament?

#

if you just describe what it looks like

#

i should be able to get it

proud storm
errant narwhal
#

heres sweet surrender, thanks again sparrow for the screen

turbid needle
#

Were almost

#

4 to go!!!

uneven shuttle
#

@turbid needle did it turn out that the filenames match the trait names in code?

dire crystal
#

wooo

errant narwhal
#

if u have the remaining unused icons we could try to fill in the blank by what makes the most sense

turbid needle
#

I didnt check

errant narwhal
#

if no one happens to have ss

uneven shuttle
#

e.g. <Text Id="ZeusWeaponTrait" DisplayName="Lightning Strike"

dire crystal
#

alright time for me to kill hydra

#

good luck

turbid needle
uneven shuttle
#

bleh, lemme see some things

proud storm
graceful bough
#

Guys I just beat Meg without getting hurt. I feel AMAZING.

indigo compass
#

๐Ÿ˜ƒ nice

errant narwhal
#

oh i think u got unhealthy fixations icon mixed with wave of despair

turbid needle
#

did i?

errant narwhal
#

yes check that screenshot

turbid needle
#

someone posted the legendary and it had that icon and name

proud storm
#

no they're identical

turbid needle
#

oh...

proud storm
#

wait a sec

errant narwhal
#

but see

#

in the tab menu theyre different

proud storm
#

no hold on somethings wrong

#

yeah

static field
#

does anyone knwo the precise mechanics of how epic/rare boons are rolled. This is what my imagination is telling me. As soon as we actiavte a boon to recieve its reward the list of boons are populated as follows: (a) the space of options are all the unowned and unlisted boons, (b) first roll for a legendary boon, if it fails then roll for an epic, if it fails then roll for a rare, if it fails then output a normal boon. Now the boon listed is considered listed and the whole processs of (a) to (b) repeats until 4 options are listed (if possible). Then after sellection of one of the options, that option is considered owned and effects all future acquisitions.
Is this information known?
also what are the base probabilities for each tier?

regal falcon
#

First Bone Hydra wohoo

turbid needle
#

oh yeah

#

i wonder which is which

indigo compass
#

gratz

proud storm
#

the tab picture is a more recent version than the one with just the boon

dire crystal
#

yeah this hydra is way easier lol

errant narwhal
#

i feel like the tab menu is correct

dire crystal
#

way better tho

proud storm
#

yeah tab is more recent

#

use this one

turbid needle
#

alright i'll switch em around

proud storm
#

i keep my hades screenshots as "hades x" x being the xth picture i took

#

thats why i know

turbid needle
errant narwhal
#

ok i checked

#

and i think the legendary boon is always listed last in the files

dire crystal
#

ooo

#

pretty

proud storm
#

left one is empty inside i think

turbid needle
#

Oh wait

errant narwhal
#

so the correct unhealthy fixation is probably the one in the tab menu

turbid needle
#

I had two of them

proud storm
#

yes it's the tab one that's correct

pearl willow
#

@static field i would wager that's mostly correct except that legendaries are generally subject to prereq boons as well and they're not really a 'rarity' exactly. i'd guess the prereqs are checked first, if they're met then there's simply some roll to determine if the legendary appears or not, and if not then generate three boons as per usual. or it may be checked per boon or they're just displayed in a randomized order as they don't always appear first.

#

So wait, I haven't been paying attention; does Unhealthy Fixation use a different icon on the left from the one in the store?

proud storm
#

the two pictures i posted are from different versions each

#

the one with the tab is the correct one

#

i just didnt realize

turbid needle
#

second one is all we need

#

Must be dying lament

static field
#

that wouold make sense waffle. has anyone gotten a legendary boon after having Only 1 boon ofo the type? I beleive every time i encounter a legendary boon, its because i have owned 3 boons of its type and therefore the pool is limited just enough for the legendary to mandatarily appear

proud storm
#

yeah it's the only one missing

#

counterpoint

#

zeus' legendary doesnt always appear even though there's a free boon slot

dire crystal
#

true

static field
#

okay ty for ingo

uneven shuttle
#

So in code, the icon is given as Boon_Aphrodite_10, which is obviously somewhat different from the filename

#

Is there an aph 10, again?

proud storm
#

theres 10 aphro boons

uneven shuttle
#

Alright, looked up, yeah, that's it

turbid needle
#

APHRO BOONS ARE DONE

#

THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS

fluid moat
#

Legendary boons have pre-requisits, unless that was changed in the patch that launched yesterday

uneven shuttle
#

@turbid needle You can probably get all the filenames from TraitData.lua, more or less. But they won't necessarily be the same, since the Icon format probably itself references the file (hopefully with the same name/number)

tiny barn
#

Okay

#

I'm finally done with school

turbid needle
#

now we just need to add a legendary category

tiny barn
#

What weapon should I use first

errant narwhal
#

bow

tiny barn
#

When I get back home

#

Except for bow because I hate it

fluid moat
#

From a friend who looked at code for legendary pre-requisits (note from previous patch):

athena - one of the base 4 and "your deflect attacks deal more damage"
poseidon - one of the base 4 and either bonus damage on wall slam or stun on wall slam
ares - one of the blade rift traits and either the blade rift aoe or blade rift homing
aphrodite - one of the base 4 and sweet surrender or weakness duration
artemis - one of the base 4 and one of increased crit damage or increased crit damage vs armor```
errant narwhal

:3ccc shield

uneven shuttle
#

I'll send you all the name/file combos for the rest of 'em

tiny barn
#

Shield it is, then

#

After that I'll do spear

uneven shuttle
#

@fluid moat I already put that stuff on the wiki

turbid needle
#

I'll add those to the notes @fluid moat

errant narwhal
#

jk its bugged do spear

turbid needle
#

What does base 4 mean here though?

fluid moat
#

ahhh cool AE just saw someone ask

tiny barn
#

I won't do the ares curse

proud storm
#

base 4 = attack/special/cast/dash boon

tiny barn
#

Also if the ares curse only applies onto the special

#

I'll be fine

uneven shuttle
#

@turbid needle check the small tables under the boon tables.

tiny barn
#

I never use the special

uneven shuttle
#

Pie5 wants to merge them into one table, just listing the requirements

#

but the table is already so WIDE ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

turbid needle
#

I think the table is decent rn

fluid moat
#

base 4 is one of the 4 attributes; Primary Attack, Special, Cast, Dash

proud storm
#

ye

turbid needle
#

Compared to before

proud storm
#

wiki looks weird in firefox btw

turbid needle
#

When it had a row for each rarity it was way too long and got smooshed

#

can you send screenshots @proud storm

uneven shuttle
#

Yeah, that's one reason I suggested the current format

#

The issue is if I include a long description in notes, it squashes the other columns

dire cedar
#

@uneven shuttle Maybe we should have a Notes section below Boons

proud storm
turbid needle
#

We do

uneven shuttle
#

I don't know, I'm not in charge of formatting, just nitpicking

proud storm
#

it works fine in explorer

uneven shuttle
#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

turbid needle
#

Wrong wiki @proud storm xD

proud storm
#

wait there's two wikis??

dire crystal
#

lol

turbid needle
#

Yeah were using the gamepedia

dire cedar
#

Fun fact. Fandom just bought Curse, who owns gamepedia.

turbid needle
uneven shuttle
#

@buoyant obsidian That's the upgrade paths table

proud storm
#

sgghsdgf

dire cedar
#

So funny there are two wikis now owned by the same company.

turbid needle
#

Does it look good on firefox?

proud storm
#

yeah it does

dire crystal
#

incredible

pastel jolt
#

@turbid needle please don't send multiple links in rapid succession; as you can probably work out, the bot eats the extras

proud storm
#

i was just on the wrong wiki because i had it bookmarked on firefox and discord links open with explorer

turbid needle
#

Yeah I just realised that haha

pastel jolt
#

also i'm going to trim down the hydra video and put it on youtube

#

nobody's allowed to laugh at how bad i am

turbid needle
#

We just decided to use gamepedia for a few reasons

proud storm
#

is anyone going to be brave enough to screenshot every npc's lines

turbid needle
#

the fandom owner is inactive on the hades wiki, im guessing they just snagged it be owner

proud storm
#

and post them in a dialogue page

turbid needle
#

and gamepedia is more built around games

proud storm
#

ye fair

turbid needle
#

yeah ill probably set up a dialogue page

graceful bough
#

Ugh, the hydra is what you call a skill wall.

turbid needle
#

i can grab dialogue from the game files

graceful bough
#

And it is the biggest detriment to the roguelike genre.

turbid needle
#

but i dont wanna spoil myself too much righ tnow

proud storm
#

don't spoil yourself too much

#

ye

pastel jolt
#

oh nooooo i just realised i didn't look at my loadout in the video before the kydra kill

dire crystal
#

lol rip

pastel jolt
#

i brought it up after but not before :c

proud storm
#

technically we're not really supposed to see hades' full codex entry

#

cuz we have to talk to him a hundred times

#

i mean unless you're REALLY motivated

dire crystal
#

lol

#

im workin on it ๐Ÿ˜›

errant narwhal
#

i mean hes there every run

#

so u just gotta do 100 runs

#

unlike the npcs who are sometimes not there

proud storm
#

they do also need a hundred conversations

errant narwhal
#

i talk to everyone before going out every time anyway :P

proud storm
#

i'm brave but this is too much effort for me :c

errant narwhal
#

i could theoretically just do runs where i die asap to talk to everyone

dire crystal
#

sisyphus is the one i wanna do 100 first lol

errant narwhal
#

but wheres the fun in that

proud storm
#

sadly there's no dialogue for dying in the very first room of tartarus

dire crystal
#

lol

hazy mauve
#

Yes. The lack of dialogue is what's sad about that.

errant narwhal
#

not yet

turbid needle
#

So uh

#

Yall got some zeus boon screenshots

proud storm
#

hardcore mode where you just fall to your death if you don't do a perfect landing after jumping through your window

What is the location of the game on the disk?

dire crystal
#

god

proud storm
#

i have no other picture with zeus boons

#

besides the spare wealth thing but that seems common to every god

turbid needle
#

Damn

#

I think I can cross reference with aphrodite

#

many of the boon icons use the same motiffs

pastel jolt
#

what're you looking for, kimo?

uneven shuttle
#

The first 4 always do

pastel jolt
#

pretend i didn't mess up the name

uneven shuttle
#

Attack/Special/Cast/Dash, that is

#

Also Retaliate, I suppose

turbid needle
#

Every boon for zeus

uneven shuttle
#

Chain Lightning is the zig-zag one, Splitting Bolt I don't know, the others all match the generic cases I mentioned

#

He only has 7, so that's all of them

dire crystal
#

okay killed the hydra with the spear, just gotta do it with sword and i have a flush

errant narwhal
#

its weird how i mained the shield but never beat the hydra with it

dire crystal
#

lol

errant narwhal
#

i play all the weapons now but still

dire crystal
#

i love the shield

#

first one i killed hydra with was the bow tho

pastel jolt
#

the bow is so much fun now

turbid needle
#

All Zeus boons up!

#

๐Ÿ‘

#

โ›ˆ

errant narwhal
#

ayyy

pastel jolt
#

it's saying something that despite all the times i tried to use it, i never even got to meg with it OR unlocked its codex entry

#

that's how bad at bow i was

turbid needle
#

Which boons got renamed again?

pastel jolt
#

and then the game gave me seven billion boons and i was like alright then let's be a coronacht main for ever and ever

#

i know the surges did

turbid needle
#

Surge dash > tidal dash?

dire crystal
pastel jolt
#

look in patch notes @turbid needle

errant narwhal
#

tidal surge

#

its now tidal dash

dire crystal
#

tidal dash is great btw

errant narwhal
#

aha is he not there or just invis

#

like can u talk to him

pastel jolt
#

tidal dash is so much fun

grand cave
#

is there any specific conditions to get orpheus to sing? i asked him to sing to me about eurydice because mythology but now he wont sing to me...

errant narwhal

it seems to be random now

thats odd

I have the files up for a few of poseidons boons

hey who wants to see my hydra kill

#

(pls excuse video quality it literally JUST uploaded)

#

(there we go i think it has the Good quality now)

#

when you have the bow and the hunter's dash, moving normally is for Losers

#

All Dash All The Time Gimme Them Crits

regal falcon
#

Is there a case when moving normally is an option at all?)

#

well i guess

#

not enough shade stuff for second or third dash

#

But yeah, Awesome)

#

Thanks for the idea of the build

#

I was using mostly Ares for bow

pastel jolt
#

that run got so broken by the end, i blame getting an aph/art trial twice

dire crystal
#

4 hydra runs in a row lol woo

#

nice

vestal snow
#

Just beat the Hydra on my first try!

dire crystal
#

nice!

regal falcon
#

Uhm total 7, but 1 each

#

math is broken

pastel jolt
#

the weapon stats were only added in the latest patch

vestal snow
#

Protip: Life Drinker (the sword upgrade that gives you HP on hit) is incredibly good, especially with Artemis Dash and some Weak effects

#

and several Centaur Hearts

fallen lintel
#

dashing is moving normally

dire crystal
#

i got the sword upgrade that made you attack really fast, combod with arte dash

#

incredible dps

vestal snow
#

That's a good one too

fallen lintel
#

flurry blade

vestal snow
#

But yeah, with Life Drinker, I finished the Meg fight with full HP and 3 Death Defiance left

#

Like, she would get me down low and then I'd just kill the minions to get back to full. It was super fun

dire crystal
#

lmao

plush blaze
#

Still haven't gotten life drinker :<

dire crystal
#

i tend to be able to dodge all of meg's attacks and have enough hp to take the ones i dont in the hydra fight

vestal snow
#

Life Drinker (since the latest patch) is definitely my favourite weapon upgrade

dire crystal
#

nice

Alright lads

I'm home

Now, just to defrost my fingers and then we'll get started

nerfed sweet surrender

i never even got it before

#

gosh dang it to heck

exotic hazel
#

fun little maths I did, if you max all the current hearts possible, youll need 66 ambrosia to max the rest when they eventually unlock

#

so dont turn your nose to ambrosia even after youve maxed all the gifts currently in game

dire crystal
#

god

tiny barn
#

Time to farm

exotic hazel
#

still wouldnt reccommend buying ambrosia from charon...ever

ocean halo
#

Actualy... Do you plan to do save reset after some major updates or global release @wintry tulip

exotic hazel
#

faq says no

ocean halo
#

Hope so

minor axle
#

I hope not

#

i would never play if they did that i hate that above all

#

I despise progress being taken away

dire crystal

its too pricy tbh

tiny barn
#

Or, you just play after the game's out

dire crystal
#

also

gee

@ocean halo yeah, we plan to do everything in our power to make sure your save data continues working with any major content patch. We'll do our best!

@pastel jolt 2 things

#
  1. you have 666 subscribers
#
  1. that hydra was AMAZING i wouldnt have guessed that was ur first time fighting it.... ur so good
minor axle
#

@wintry tulip i don't suppose you could share the hot insider info on planned future weapons

tiny barn

They're gonna stab the badmen

And they'll be pointy

aaaaa thank u alma,,

I just learned the hard way that Poseidon boon for shield throw is kinda dangerous because it could push enemies towards me on the way back ๐Ÿ˜…

i like how at about 3:10 you can see me realise how little health i have and just hide for a little while ;n;

Should I record my own vid

Because I think I'm decent-ish at the game

im in this room and there is this translucent jiggling cube what is this i don't even

errant narwhal
#

๐Ÿค”

tiny barn
#

Can you describe the cube further?

ocean halo
#

just in case

tiny barn
#

That's probably a boon

minor axle
#

it's from the torches

#

the light forms a cube above them

tiny barn
#

Ah

ocean halo
#

it just a light effect

errant narwhal
#

oh its just the light then

#

i thought it was like

minor axle
#

that would be funny if there were torch mimics and all of a sudden gellatinous cube enemy

errant narwhal
#

a new Secret Enemy from that description

autumn yarrow
#

@errant narwhal you ruined the 666 by mentioning it btw... :^)

thin glacier
#

Im gonna stream some of my build attempts at hydra today.

pastel jolt
#

actually recording fights is really useful bc i can see where i hecked up

#

for instance, dashing right underneath a head as it stomps ._.

thin glacier
#

The last miniom that kills you, will be glowing, while the deathscreen rolls up

#

Only you and your murder should be displayed during the animation of your death

plush blaze
#

Ok I got lifedrinker for the firs time

errant narwhal
#

when fighting it with the sword i was just yelling and spam clicking until i got lifesteals

plush blaze
#

suddenly games easy

errant narwhal
#

ahaha exactly

plush blaze
#

first sword win with 5x death defiance left

errant narwhal
#

5????

thin glacier
#

lifedrinker? Theres leech now?

errant narwhal
#

there always was iirc

tiny barn
#

He got 2 extra from Charon's things, alma

plush blaze
#

yeah 3 to start and then I got 2 from shops

errant narwhal
#

just for the sword

#

oh

#

right

thin glacier
#

Yeaterday I managed to pull a damageless Meg.. You should get a boon for pulling that off imo

errant narwhal
#

buying 2 death defies u wont need just to flex on the hydra

plush blaze
#

Anyway, beaten the game with every weapon now

errant narwhal
#

๐ŸŽ‰

thin glacier
#

Congrats. Now to farm up the passive traits and max em out :^)

plush blaze
#

Yup, maxed out everything up to the starting money upgrade

dire crystal
#

same alma, same

#

i have 50% rare chance up and 10% epic chance up

thin glacier
#

I got rares maxxed also

dire crystal
#

nice

south comet
#

I wonโ€™t lie I went into a hydra fight with 4 defies and lost

#

Iโ€™m hopeless

thin glacier
#

I basically farm stuff for future content now

pastel jolt
#

i haven't got either of those unlocked yet, nevermind maxed

#

i really gotta stop avoiding keys,,

dire crystal
#

same bossly lol

thin glacier
#

more then 120 keys right now. Evwn though I avoided then

plush blaze
#

I've done that before with 5 Madcar

#

But I had a weak ass build

dire crystal
#

how many runs youve done bossly?

thin glacier
#

I've been playing this game inbetween my magic and artifact games. Now I play artifact and magic inbetween Hades games. :/

autumn yarrow
#

gotta be at least triple digits

thin glacier
#

I can check for you, when home. I've killed hydra about 7 times now

#

I think I got 100+ deaths

errant narwhal
#

i only have the boon rarities and deep pockets to max now

plush blaze
#

I really want to make a 2x enemies 2x damage mod

#

Damage part should be relatively easy

#

(Both player and enemy)

thin glacier
#

Game supports modding?

errant narwhal
#

sounds hectic

thin glacier
#

2x speed mod would be dope

plush blaze
#

Scripts are all in lua, and the damage information / UI is all in .xml files Bossly

thin glacier
#

Glass-mode. One hit and you die. lmao

autumn yarrow
#

Hardcore*

plush blaze
#

I already messed with the sword damage values when it was 10/10/10 instead of 10/20/30 to see how easy it would be to mod

#

And you just change the damage values for each of the swing animations

tiny barn
#

@thin glacier one hit and you die but you get viciously more powerful boons and upgrades

thin glacier
#

Ye

plush blaze
#

Buff every boon to legendary tier

100% damage reduction from persephone plix

wind vortex

data mining shows that there's Dionysus with a slow effect

wind vortex
#

Glass mode

tiny barn
#

@wind vortex boss rush mode

plush blaze
#

And references to elysium, which I assume is the 3rd area

wind vortex
#

No boons/Daedalus upgrades

tiny barn
#

before doing the boss rush

thin glacier
#

Boss rush mode? Kill Meg, Kill hydra. Win

tiny barn
#

you get 5-10 boons in one room

plush blaze
#

3x meg

tiny barn
#

(this is once all the other bosses are out)

plush blaze
#

fight all 3 furies at once

thin glacier
#

Im aware. Just was fun

plush blaze
#

But they're all meg

grand eagle
#

A idol system would make farming darkness more fun

autumn yarrow
#

I'd like the boss mode even now just to practice hydra fight...

wind vortex
#

6 bombers in the Tartarus encounter

thin glacier
#

Hydra needs good dps. Race her or die.

#

Bombers are friggin weak imo.

#

On the other hand.. I hate skeletons in stage 2

#

you dash, they turn around and slam you

#

I hate them with a passion

tiny barn
#

yeah, they have way too much tracking

autumn yarrow
#

why not dash after they attack?

thin glacier
#

I usually dash twice and end up in lava :/ 1 dmg is better then getting hit

#

Because blue crystals need to die asap

#

I usually dash into all enemies to focus them down

minor axle
#

i have come around on poseidon his cast boon is not bad

thin glacier
#

So, dash in, hit, dash out twice, repeat.

autumn yarrow
#

you can kite them out of blue gem range

thin glacier
#

But I need them all to be shieldless so I can bash them into lava :^)

#

Im just way too offensive on this game.

autumn yarrow
#

๐Ÿคท just a different playstyle i guess

#

I mean yea I too try to do as much damage as possible but blue gems are just that kind of interaction

thin glacier
#

Yep. Im usually the person to initiate. If enemies have armor, I dash-attack them, to get distance.

vestal snow
#

My guess for the Idol system is that it will be "Labors"

#

Like the Labors of Hercules

tiny barn
#

what's the Idol system?

#

is it like the optional challenges in every sgg game before this

errant narwhal
#

yes

oblique karma
#

random question: empty inside (aphrodite buff) and bronze skin (athena buff) do the same thing right? why is empty inside so much stronger
they both reduce damage dealt by enemies

proud storm
#

i dont know the specifics but yes

autumn yarrow
#

is there a rarity involved?

rocky whale
#

aphrodite also give you weak?

oblique karma
#

no rarity

tiny barn
#

@oblique karma aphrodite is close range

#

athena is all damage

thin glacier
#

idk. But theres a shield upgrade that also gives 20%. I had 90% with all combined

oblique karma
#

ohhh i see

rocky whale
#

oh ok

oblique karma
#

thanks @tiny barn

vestal snow
#

@tiny barn yeah, there's no indication yet that there will be one of those systems in the games, but since every SG has had something like that, I figure Hades will too

tiny barn
#

maybe

#

before you start a run

#

you can apply those modifiers

vestal snow
#

Yeah, that's what I figure

uneven shuttle
#

On the Aphrodite buff: It only applies to enemies within 400 units of you.

tiny barn
#

how close is that?

#

in visual terms

uneven shuttle
#

For comparison, that's the same radius as Tidal Dash

tiny barn
#

ah

uneven shuttle
#

You can find info like that on the wiki, by the way. Pretty sure I have all major damage ranges and radii listed.

#

No visual guide for what number is what, though

turbid needle
#

has anyone figured out wall slam damage?

toxic sinew
#

"I always wondered what would happen if you just kind of stood around while all their bombs went off!" Wow Hypnos needs to stay in his lane

turbid needle
#

it seems inconsistent

tiny barn
#

i think it scales with momentum

uneven shuttle
#

Not sure. Not a boon specific thing, so haven't looked into it yet

autumn yarrow
#

^

tiny barn
#

and distance from the wall

turbid needle
#

Ah

#

Looks like I cant exactly get specific stats for it

vestal snow
#

That would make sense

turbid needle
#

Ill just say thats what they scale with

#

Are there any boons that enhance backstab damage or is it just mirror upgrades?

tiny barn
#

mirror only

turbid needle
#

๐Ÿ™

#

thx

errant narwhal
#

i think i said this today already but bless you for putting this wiki together

proud storm
#

im gonna play hades for a little while so if you need anything you tell me

turbid needle
#

No problem!

#

And thanks to everyone else who has helped out either through directly editing the wiki or just providing us with info and screenshots ๐Ÿ˜„

uneven shuttle
#

Alright, I think I found the wall slam damage

#

CollisionDamagePerVelocity=0.01

#

It always seems to be either 0.01 or 0

#

It's enemy specific, though.

buoyant locust
#

guys i guess ive found a bug

uneven shuttle
#

So no guarantees.

buoyant locust
#

it might as well be a feature

uneven shuttle
#

@turbid needle

buoyant locust
#

when you pick ares's enchanment on your shield special, which causes enemies to suffer damage a moment later, it is possible to damage yourself if you catch the shield too early

uneven shuttle
#

Assuming the name's accurate, Poseidon's abilities should do max 20-25 damage on Wall Slams.

that is indeed a....... very well-known issue

uneven shuttle
#

(some set velocity to 2500, some to 2000)

#

k thx just wanted to inform

proud storm
#

UH HELLO ARES???

#

you've changed ๐Ÿ‘€

buoyant locust
#

that just got me killed twice in a row and now i actually hate ares so i really wanted this to be a known issue you know

#

ah well ive missed a channel as well

vague hearth
#

It is a known issue, so it should be fixed soon

uneven shuttle
#

Also, @turbid needle , there's a minimum proc velocity. It seems to be 1000, on all enemies that actually take Wall Slam damage.

#

Again, no guarantees, though.

#

Info's from Game/Units/Enemies.xml, by the way.

welp

#

shield run didn't work out

#

died at hydra

graceful bough
#

I've never gotten anywhere even close to the hydra without the shield

tiny barn
#

i've beaten it with the bow

#

this run just wasn't good, though

graceful bough
#

Hydra has stopped being fun for me.

#

It's just an insane bullet hell.

tiny barn
#

yeah, the final phase needs to be toned down

fluid moat
#

have you tried it with the new patch?

tiny barn
#

it's too big a mess

graceful bough
#

I literally just came to the discord right now to complain about it, playing the new patch.

hi guys, I was wondering if any of you knew how poseidon buff works ? the one were you get 70% more of gold/HP/shadow, does it only works on drops or event with Charon ?

fluid moat
#

ahhhh

graceful bough
#

I'm starting to be like Zag.

tiny barn
#

it works on anything that gives you stuff

graceful bough
#

I'm having fun, great run.

tiny barn
#

just more stuff all around

gleaming void
#

Ok thanks

fluid moat
#

would it be helpful if I made a video for each weapon to explain a nice consistent ADC build for each?

graceful bough
#

Get to Hydra, "Welp, time to go die again."

gleaming void
#

Never got past Hydra tho

proud storm
#

wow the hydra boss fight is... much less chaotic now

graceful bough
#

You shouldn't need external strategies to figure out how to kill something.

#

I feel like that's bad game design.

#

The shieldbug isn't limited to the Ares boon

thin glacier
#

I figured out, if hydra is aiming at you (if you stand on the right side of the arena f.e.) you can avoid massive arrows when you go on the opposite of the map. But you only have 3 dashes, so thats practically undoable.

You can pull it off, when you are near the main-head. But its shielded until the other heads die.

gleaming void
#

Yeah the shieldbug works with poseidon too

hushed parrot
#

but I guess it's most noticeable with Ares so people keep reporting it like that

gleaming void
#

I got many times into lava because of it

graceful bough
#

What's the shield bug?

gleaming void
#

when you use the special it can affect the buffs on you

#

Like the curse of Ares

fluid moat
#

hmmmm well any Primary Attack boon I could defeat hydra with, so I dont think external strategies is necessarily at work

gleaming void
#

and with Poseidon you get knocked back upon reception of the shield

graceful bough
#

I often have builds that focus on using special a lot, but haven't noticed anything weird about it.

fluid moat
#

yeah special feels a bit on the weaker end right now, except maybe a wonky bow build

#

or even spear

graceful bough
#

I mean the shield special.

gleaming void
#

I got killed by it with Ares Boon, feels bad

fluid moat
#

oh shield special doesn't do much yeah

thin glacier
#

Idk, I killed hydra with a buff zeus spear

gleaming void
#

It got nerfed tho

graceful bough
#

Which is kind of OP but I don't want to report to feedback in case they nerf it.

gleaming void
#

Only 15dmg now

graceful bough
#

Ah.

thin glacier
#

special build that is

graceful bough
#

Well I got a buff earlier today (I think Daedalus?) that made it more OP than usual.

#

After every bounce doubles damage.

#

That was like, daaaamn.

#

That was a good run.
