? splitting HA is an average 15% global damage multiplier assuming max hangover stacks
they do different things imo
splitting headache lets anything crit
It's like Pressure Points
Though honestly, between Heart Rend and Splitting Headache, you also qualify for that Aphrodite/Dionysus duo boon too
Which boosts the amount Hangover can stack on weak enemies
So really, between all three of those duo boons, why not get as many of them as possible?
yeah, but it's hard to get multiple duos even if you qualify
yeah
Hence "as many of them"
usually when you go for one duo you should have another secondary one in mind
and if you want the combo you need dio or aphro on dash
yeah and you want artemis on your main damage
so i could imagine this working on rama
or demeter with artemis special
though if we're going to go for mad combos might as well just go ME
well if this is really what you want to go for
you coudl just do dem fists with drunken strike, deadly flourish and passion dash
NGL this entire discussion my mind has been using Chiron bow as a reference point, make of that what you will
but you might as well just do lightning strike and not require 3 duos for your build
yeah lmao
chiron you could run as a low tolerance build with true shot since your cast doesn't matter
but i wouldnt force artemis
You can just throw Artemis on cast or call in that situation
hmm. looking at some numbers rn. deadly reversal with divine strike looks much more tempting compared to heart rend with deadly strike.
in what way
damage output is similar. you get free deflect tho.
assuming 100% uptime for both
oh on arthur?
on everything
but nemesis exists
u know what i mean 😐
100% uptime is much harder to get on Deadly Reversal
ofc i mean everything like "everything". i know coronatch, nem exist etc
heart rend is probably better for the fist builds that run it too
spears
GY in particular
Beo shield heartrend is better i think?
It seems like it'd be hard to set up guaranteed deflects on Beo for Deadly Reversal... sounds like a not great build...
So yeah, Heartrend is better, I think
https://tiermaker.com/create/hades--all-daedalus-hammers-82372 I made this thing so you can rank every hammer
lol i barely know half the icons
Half? Damn, that's like 30% more than me 😛
the more outstanding ones, i'd know. but others are just so similar
I know maybe 20%
i would not recognize spear hammers to save my life
i know shield and eris because anyheat lol
but the others
ew
@opal lodge die
I play bow a lot, can't recognize any of the special hammer xD
listen once you play RTA enough you pick up these things
RTA gamer btw
i only recognize the hammers i pick 
lmao I appreciate it. I'll have to learn the hammers though
if you want I will list every name in order in the description
you are so right the bow hammers are so indistinct
yep a quiz would be intersting 🤔
what's that
guess
hmmm
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/392070250511728653/782837702155436032/99.png ok try to name this one
no cheating
oh god
explosive?
Foxhope, your guess?
sniper shot?
It was explosive
i guess fox's one was the projectile that does 30 damage thingy?
whatever it's called
it's like, all the other weapons I can pretty much tell what they are
the god damn bow though
I don't look at the icons that hard
Nah triple is different
Aka perfect shot?
wrong, it's charged volley 
D: D:
for most of the other weapons it's way easier
spear is hard too...
gfdi you literally just used this

yea that one is more obvious with the horns
IS IT?
yess
do i win something 🙂
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/392070250511728653/782839069356851260/150.png ok bright is going to answer this one immediately so he is banned
that looks like charged flight
D: it's impossiberu
I literally downloaded the bow images like 30 mins ago and I can't remember which is which
the sword ones are easy
bow is
impossible dark souls bloodborne Gaiden Mode
not being able to directly paste images makes this a lot more tedious
you have a 20% chance of getting this right
eternal chamber
is it flash fire?
easy he says
yes because it is literally pulverizing blow
wallop
but so is so many other shield hammers tho. they all look pulverizing
see I am a beo veteran I know this stuff
yeah don't cheat
I posted 3 very similar looking hammers
I knew what it was anyway
listen I am beowulf professional gamer
I know these
same with sword
a general boon quiz would be fun, just pick a random boon
either twin shot or flurry fire
I think twin shot comes from the left
so flurry shot
bet it's twin 😉
that one is twin
is the last one piercing?
which one is twin, which one is flurry
im lost
have fun with hermes boons
LOL
first one is flurry
one is twin one is flurry
i can do hermes boons i think
i think hermes will be easier tbh
second one is twin defo
i see them very often
but flurry cast and bad news have the same icon
cin is correct, first is twin second is flurry
but what the hell SGG
Ive never gotten a hermes legendary in like 150 runs
did they swapped the two hammers?
did they goof?
Isnt that like cast succession or something?
And i take chaos every run
does bad news just do almost nothing on blade rift/crystal beam
idk chaos rates. but since you need at least one chaos boon first. seems pretty hard.
or is it op because not lodging
it should increase the entire thing
the answer is yes the icons for flurry cast and bad news are literally the exact same
it's good cause not lodging
i don't know why, maybe they got lazy
Yo, whats the max lvl for each aspect?
5
Ah ok
you should try using aspects that are good at level 1
oh god artemis boons would be hard if she wasn't used so often
like GY
I'd like to see a boon quiz where it just selects a random boon image
including hammers
and you have to guess
I've gotten offered chaos' legendary exactly once but it doesn't count for the prophecy if you die before it transforms into the blessing
"Oh you're a hades player? Name every boon"
and that run was not going very well, so I died shortly after picking it
Do you basically need egg to get the legendary
here is my hammer tier list, thanks for the template
https://imgur.com/P9kpjLA
chaos
and like a chad I didn't take it
was that with God’s Leggacy
all of them on one tiermaker
why is eternal chamber so low
i am scared
based tier list
yeah, an extra death defiance doesn't seem that good, I'd take extra damage first
the damage ramp up is important, giving it up for infinite ammo really destroys your damage output
I took a glance but I mostly agree
though triple shot should be always take imo
also dash nova tier xD
colossus is solid
Cursed slash should be always take
any hammers that beowulf shield really wants?
If you get hit it’s your fault
I hate you
the beowulf exclusive looks solid, at least
but the healing only matters if you get hit
so what's the point
it's so counter intuitive
also it doesn't even work on dash strikes
it’s so you can take more chaos gates obv
4 head problems require 4 head solutions.
cin zag sword 51 heat is with cursed slash it must be good
zag sword on 54 heat is with flurry
automatic S tier
same with Repulse Shot for Rama
going to be very picky with always take
I mean hammer is aspect dependent. So hard to find anyone that is always take.
The only one I can think of is Breaching Cross.
take the bow special hammers
where should I put concentrated volley
or relentless
they are great on chiron
but pretty meh on all the others
except maybe rama
hammer is aspect dependent.
Maybe a separate tier called "Situational S"?
instead of just S
apparently breaching isnt a must take on gilga
It's not?
not according to people who play more gilga than i do
it's still good
but rending claws seems better
Other than rending claws?
I put targeting a tier above cluster because targeting is better for non-eris
rocket is pretty nice even not on eris
Explosive shot :(
I buy it. I am not too well versed in Gilga
explosive shot is absolute garbage
Double Edge isn't a must take on Arthur imo, you are better off with Breaching Slash (which is B tier at best for other aspects).
you mean shadow slash
also it's almost always take, being incredibly powerful on 2 aspects and a nice supplement to damage on the third is good enough
dash nova isnt that bad honestly
if you've been playing for a while it really is that bad
I mean it's also a meme target.
Much better in beta branch
It's better now than it used to be for sure.
Hell it's not even the same thing anymore
its not run ending
Remember Snap Nova?
I think it still does more harm than good
I member
I cant stand world splitter
world splitter is... like the default sword combo but a bit better
no arc
world splitter double nova is very good if youre doing no dash zag sword 🙂
I would put flurry and world splitter in does almost nothing but that would be boring
fun fact: world splitter activates breaking wave lmao
sword is relegated to dash strikes
1 2 special is better but spamming dash attack is better than both
this is also something that is only relevant in no dash builds
yeah because the standard combo is kinda ass
and double edge exists
double nova is pretty solid, since on a heart rend build you take aphro or arte special
which both are good damage
and not knocking enemies back can be good
I willingly took explosive shot on rama and it was funny bc I basically just had a melee weapon at that point
rama always is a melee weapon
power shots are massive damage, making them take longer is horrible
also serving as a pseudo range down
power shots on rama take 10 years
even on the other bows explosive shot isn't very good since you dont have any business being in melee range
yeah which is why I put it in the sabotages your run tier
explosive shot takes away everything good about bow
charged shot is shield's rocket bomb
however it really only shines on beowulf
charged shot is how you get value on rama
I would much rather spam dashes like crazy
minotaur rush is absolutely horrible
it is one of the closest hammers to just doing nothing
just time 4head
if u can time a power shot u can time minotaur rush
minotaur rush looks useless
and rush already does good damage
who has the time to time power shots?
mino rush is probably S-tier on zag shield
only one other shield uses rush
or at least A tier
what
yes
oh
wait why isn't it as good on chaos
ive never tried cursed slash w arthur
I have
it's less bad than the other swords
shadow slash and greater consecration are my go tos
I think it's one of the worse swords for arthur IIRC
the only problem is arthur attack slow, so you need to hit multiple enemies to really stack the healing
ye
speed wasn't fast enough to beat final boss
but it's hard to not hit multiple enemies
but it does way better with cursed slash
than the other sword
s
cursed slash + flurry is legitimately insane
bc its usually less reliant on dash attack
my first time making it past the boys I had that combo lol
you want to special a lot more
true
died to dad bc it was my first time fighting him ever
zag shield seems really fun lol
so sudden rush or explosive return are go to's
I would use it if not for beo
that is indeed a unique opinion i think
truth be told I haven't done much with zeus shield
actually I don't think I have done a single run with zeus shield ever
I really wanna try out Hestia but I cant use rail
in my over 300 hours
ill probably start a new file or something
😮 why a new file just to rail
bc I want to keep this forever lol https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/328246239160434691/782853485120323624/unknown-89__01__01.png
oh I know a speedrunner with like a 30+ minute best time on spear who refuses to touch it
I am not a fan of spear
I think spear is my least favorite weapon
like every run ive had with it has been annoying/slow in some way
agh
the triple jab hammer is really awkward and I don't special much
guan MF Yu
im angy
i got a chamber 4 heart rend on GY
and somehow finished with a 13 minute time after some stuff
I wuv nemesis
nemesis fits my playstyle of constant extreme aggression very well
true
die
now u can see why I dont like spear
rama is just chiron but reverse
I had stacking+impending doom on rama special
I didnt even need to use my main attack
at least you have to time your dash strikes with zag bow 
another ping out of anger
LOL
are you saying zag bow is better than nemesis
im saying zag bow is just as engaging as nemesis 
I actually... Why do I talk to you?
I like to mash
this is the definition of insanity
doing the same thing over and over again and expecting something to change
in this case talking to bright
well rama is just better zag bow
so therefore
nemesis is rama
but rama is also arthur
im ok with that
so rama is nemesis and arthur
to hurt me youd have to insult beowulf
so arthur is zag bow
which i know youd never do
I like using beo's normal attack to hit cornered enemies
that is what special is for
beo special does some damn good damage
flashbacks to old charged flight
like what 85?
old charged flight was +400%
oh 45
it did over 2k damage
nice
now it's only 200
well the % is only 200
charged flight is still very viable, you can probably clear 32 heat real easy with it
but imagine it twice as good
well not really because the damage is additive and not multiplicative therefore the damage of pre-nerf charged flight is not actually double the damage of post-nerf, instead it simply just added +200% base damage over post-nerf
its 1.667x better prenerf
well it's 2 am on a school night I will be going to bed
Hi, if i choose bonus for like 2% damage everytime i clear encounter without dying, and then change it to something else on elisyum, does +damage stays with me?
nope
So it's only reasonable to keep all the run?
it's better to just use something else honestly
its not without dying btw, its without taking damage
I usually use Zeus or Artemis first and then switch to Athena later
Am I the only one who honestly really dislikes Hestia Rail?
its not for everyone
it’s eh for me personally
Like I can wrap my head around the concept of it fine, I just think it's how it works in practice that throws me off
i miss way more often than i need to
Mainly because none of the other aspects on any of the other weapons require me to actually rebind my controls to use it comfortably
Keyboard
oh?
Like I don't want to have to rebind anything just to use one particular aspect in general
are you using arrow keys or somethin
its not hard tbh
WASD
just put reload on RMB or left shift
reload on R doesnt bother me
you have to change attack at cursor for rail anyway
I reiterate my previous statement
whatever floats ur boat
Like, maybe if Hestia kept the empowered shot but instead had the mag size automatically set to 1, I'd feel more comfortable with it
IDK
I might be at a disadvantage but I like having full control over my inputs
I do too, but I also don't want to have to rebind some stuff just to use one particular aspect somewhat comfortably
Is it possible to get a 100% dodge build?
yes
smoldering air second wind
ultra_instinct.mp4
how do you even get that much dodge
zag fist, plume, greater evasion, second wind, smoldering air.
that's way more than 100%
wait, how does smoldering air help
you can call every 5 seconds
constant second wind upkeep
ohhhhhh
second wind gives you 6 second of evasion after using call
athena special effects are top tier though
like, divine flourish on bow? one of the prettiest things in the game
deflect > everything
divine strike on GY's spin
(except chill if you have decay)
Does Greater Recall proc Exit Wounds instantly?
Divine strike on arthur is soooo pretty
greater recall doesn't interact with exit wounds per s ay
greater recall only works when the bloodstones are already on the floor
you'd want something like quick reload
Oh, its the return timer on the floor, i see
you still need the stones to get out of the enemy first
Greater recall moves your stone towards you when they're ready for pick up
big fan of side hustle
Ah but Quick Return is one of the prereqs anyways so i guess that might be a thing to go for
side hustle is kinda sad
its good
Love side hustle for stacking with golden touch
who needs quick return when u just kill the enemy instantly :pppp
ive gotten so much blood+diamonds from styx bc of it
i mean. it depends where you get it.
if you get it early it's basically a free 500+ coins
yeah
one time I picked side hustle from the 500 Hermes boon in styx
just go flurry cast -> greater recall with something like crystal beams
then I realized what I did
then you don’t have to worry about dislodging
But if i go crystals i cant spam true shot 
I am not a smart person
cant get flurry cast with the superior mirror option
go crystal clarity and pick up fully loaded :p
We all make mistakes
lol same
Does the legendary Hermes boon for doing more damage to enemies with no gems stuck in them work for casts that don't even get stuck?
Uh... "Bad News"?
Yes.
No wonder I was doing so much damage with Ice Wine...
Do y'all prefer ice wine or electric wine?
I've died 4 times in a row to Hades' second hp bar. I just want to progress for story sake 
What is the easiest to clear with generally? I am most comfortable with Twin fists (talos) but I am still unsure what the easiest to mess up build for it would be.
I've only tried coronacht I think but I got a broken combo, would've lost otherwise.
Some type of curse on the cast or attack?
Flood Shot with Blizzard Shot and Mirage Shot if you want to use Talos.
So its a cast based build?
Probably with Deadly Strike and Frost Flourish to unlock the Duo Boons, but might work out well the other way around.
Is this for Talos or Chiron?
Talos.
But it sounds like a lot to get. Do you mean either of the two approaches?
No, I mean all of it. But getting just one out of Mirage Shot or Blizzard Shot would already be good.
You can also sidegrade to Sea Storm if you see that instead.
So I'd need to start with poseidon keepsake, get flood shot first and then switch to either demeter or artemis?
I'll give it a shot
Lots of flexibility there.
Breaching Cross, and if you go for Deadly Strike, Heavy Knuckle.
Explosive Upper is nice, too.
Makes sense, ty.
splash dash is also really good on talos since you can keep pulling them in range of your dash
but may be harder to control
You could also start with Pointed Arrowhead for Deadly Strike or Flourish and take it from there.
Lots of good potential for casts: Mirage Shot, Hunting Blades, Crystal Clarity, Fully Loaded.
I've already gotten an epic flood shot, will see how it goes. I'll come back and read. Ty again both of you.
She has Support Fire in her pool, which is great for Malphon.
good luck!
tbh i only use special to apply status and effect
i never actually uppercut
Good luck! 
not sure if that's how you're "supposed" to play talos but since i only do zeus attack splash dash it work lmao
probably doesnt hold up at high heat at all
i tried blizzard shot. it's hard to play
it does so much when it connects, but i've problem connecting the blizzard shots
i used infernal, not sure if right choice
It's not a problem with Talos.
Bosses get completely destroyed by Blizzard Shot.
just do ice wine talos 
It's easy to keep them within the AOE because they don't get knocked back very far.
i love blackout ice wine talos even if it's bad
That doesn't sound bad.
sounds decent
too much work to get going
but once it gets going you press a lot of buttons and see some big numbers
i've never gotten talos. feels very awkward
i love it
Is it just me or playing a Special build with mouse+keyboard is painful for fingers?
r e b i n d
I tried Aspect of Rama and I lose lives in standard rooms in elysium
where
w h e r e
settings
nah i mean the keys
everything feels weird
ooh that's big brain
i have two spare buttons there
so i got cast on MB4
think is good
thank you
good friend
o sounds good. I've standard mouse so..
mine is glowing
also mouse wheel down is handy on hera/beowulf
bow aspect
I find playing games on KBM can get painful either way. Xbox One pads work best for me. The next Xbox pads look like an improvement, though, so I might try getting one.
also any way to get rid of the cat glitch?
what's a cat glitch.
im bad at controllers. I've so much muscle memories on kbm. :C
same
You can link clips if you upload it to gfycat or something.
same (1). i've only ever used a controller for fighting games
i guess ill just pm
you can ask in #h1-tech-support
lmao
she just killed me at hades when i had no extra lives
D:
just bumped her head in my mouse
she wanna play
she stinky

whats good from demetra
boon*
i tried the cast one and im not interested again xDDDDD
Her curse is generally just nice for bosses... 40% slow (or 55% with killing freeze) to help learn the game especially
Or activate Privileged Status
Decay is really strong.
i did a stubborn defiance run at low heat with high confidence, but since i didn't just let myself die i'm at river of styx now
i feel dumb
btw if you lowroll boons early is not that good
whelp time to see how this goes
and i go for famring things than finish the run till the end
i went for a lightning thing sword and i didnt find anything about it xD
i have poseidon call passive electric special uprades and nothing else kekw
between sea storm duo and electric strike u choose seastorm right?
oh god
chaos just offered me a deal, -48 hp for special damage until i complete the boon
i have 50 hp
yes always greed
1 HP is all you need.
Ambrosia for titans is worth to trade ?
yes no?
One ambrosia per run
it is worth it in the short run to play more aspects,
but not really in the medium run, when you still need ambrosia, but no longer need blood.
but doesn't matter anymore since you've excess of both in the long run
hello! I have a few noobie questions:
1)does Aspect of Zeus apply multiple stacks of Doom?
2) does its damage (the shield special damage, not the doom damage) benefit from chaos boons?
I kinda wanna get a build that applies multiple stacks of doom and proc them with merciful end
doom doesn't stack on a single enemy.
don't understand second qn. which chaos boon, what?
the chaos boon that increases special damage
does it work with the aspect of zeus ticking damage?
yes.
i mean, there is a boon that allows that, am i wrong?
yes? no.
You still have a single stack on the enemy. it's just due to deal more
i must have misunderstood Dire Misfortune then
if you want merciful end, you really don't want to use dire misfortune
uhm, i see
i am really trying to get this aspect working but i feel like i am doing the wrong thing xD
merciful end is really strong on it. doom on special, deflect on strike
Or you can go the classic zeus special.
it is. yep
is there a build that plays really well into this aspect strengths?
it works esp well on zeus tho. since the special ticks well
you could just do special zeus on zeus shield, that never goes wrong.
if your aspect is maxed out, you could even do deadly flourish, it's decent too
nah it's just lv 2
just another thing, since apparently i am misunderstanding doom's scaling a bit: does impending doom work with merciful end?
yes
it does, it's good
niceee
I think merciful end isn't that good without impending doom
how so?^^
it can almost double your doom damage (or more)
I mean merciful end is still a great boon
honestly i am expecting a nerf
it's so good
Ares duos are so good, like, Poseidon/Ares and Artemis/Ares are busted imo
hunting blades is pretty incredible
but it's hard to get the pieces together
which is why I'm not too worried about it getting nerfed
Wasn’t ME nerfed already? It seems so hard to get now
Yeah you need Divine strike or Divine Flourish now
what's the best combo for aspect of arthur blade
to spam
for regular sword i go: dash>dash attack>attack>attack>special>dash>repeat
but that feels awkward on arthur
weave dashes between your attacks
First, on sword you want to special dash strike dash strike
i do
But on Arthur it won't work
Make good use of your special
Double edge is an amazing hammer too
so on regular sword: special>dash attack>dash attack>dash>special?
You're using you're special while your dash cooldown is refreshing
that's why Divine flourish is good tho
also don't spam too much either
it's easy to get damaged, observe before dash striking like a madman
but this is is the most damage yeah
i've been easily clearing the game by doing dash>dash attack>attack>attack>special>dash>repeat
while also mixing it up as to not get hit
no dash before the last special
everything kinda works as long as you're attacking constantly,
but there is always gonna be an optimal rotation
And the optimal rotation is not always optimal 
if you've more dashes, add in more dash strikes.
ty for the tips, i'll try to incorporate special dash strike dash strike into my gameplay, i'll just have to build up muscle memory
for arthur starting your attack before dashing can be very helpful.
allows you to easily lay down special.
And also lets you double poke with 110 base damage
arthur is one of my favorite weapons
yesss
dash strike build with double edge is horrible tho
why would you ruin a weapon
just for a speedrun
big swings is where it's at
just hitting with the very edge
just attack -> dash -> dash attack
greater consecration is one of the best hidden aspect hammers
i always pick it
I may pick shadow slash over it
me too. depends on heat
pretty sure it is literally the best hidden aspect hammer
lucifer tho
gilga's hammer is really good
if you get it with quick spin you have a lot of spins on screen
I once got quick massive spin with the winged serpent via anvil
rama's hammer is just underwhelming
some of the others are fine, but greater consecration is practically best in shot for arthur
solid competition from shadow slash tho you’re right
it's just bad colossus knuckle
true lol
colossus knuckle is practically constant sturdy
why does rail get 5 hidden aspect hammers btw lol
because if it didn't, it'd have like, 3 hammers max
most of the regular attack hammers don't really make sense for a laser
i mean, flash fire at least isn’t a hammer
it’s a baseline QoL feature they accidentally put in the wrong place
any build for Heart-Seeking Bow and aspect of zagreus ?
and with what keepsake can i start the run
i wanna beat hades for one time i necer did
Yo, is their any build for the Lucifer aspect?
zeus
Yeah, i figured that
there's also the legendary super soaker build
Hmmm
actually there’s a third build which revolves around special, usually with artemis
dunno how good it is as i’ve never used it myself, but i see it crop up now and again
I think Dionysus is good on Lucifer’s special too, actually.
Hm, well imma try going for the thunder sig at tartarus than try the conch in asphodel and see how this works
Any daedalus stuff i should look for btw?
flash fire is just really nice
as is eternal chamber for zeus stuff
idk i’m no lucy expert
The hammer that makes foes targeted by special weaker is pretty nice with Hangover or Doom. Probably Rupture, too.
targeting system?
Yeah.
that’s one of the best rail hammers full stop, so presumably it’d be good on lucy as well yeah
Fair
charged voley>sniper shot ?
which aspect?
on aspect of chiron absolutely yes
how is the high confidence mirror option on aspect of arthur?
it seems like it could be good
nope i have only zagreus aspect
available
charged volley isnt better tho i picked it and i guess is not
oh whoops, I confused it with concentrated volley
arthur is the freest high confidence
i don't think i would ever take it otherwise
i still don't with arthur but i might try it sometime
like ruthless reflex with gilgamesh fists
I like ruthless reflex with arthur
i accidentally did this once, and didn't notice until later
fortunately i had gotten extra dashes from hermes
so it all worked out in the end
Well from first impressions from Lucifer is, meh
Im just not well with having to aim something and wait for the enemy to be in its radius just for it to explode
But that would just be most of the rails
Imma just stick with Eris
lol you and 90% of the hades playerbase forgetting non eris rail exists
(me as well not judging)
Nice
Well from looking at hestia, really it only starts getting good when you invest in it tbh, and usually the Zagreus aspects are just there
I pretty much haven't invested in the zagreus aspects of most of the weapons and I don't feel like I'm missing out
except sword, spear, and fists
I think I will eventually when I get enough titan blood, but I'm in no rush
why does bow chainshot change the arrow. lol. that's so weird
what boon or passive upgrade can i pick from demetra?
i play bow with zagreus aspect xD (lightning/doom) thing
should i ignore at all?
zag aspect is extremely meh but i would def build demeter boons - especially those that buff crit and those that give more crit chance to attack/dash
for naeling board, is cast damage up better or extra cast? Going for trippy shot infernal soul
extra cast is almost always better
okay ty
Yeah, extra cast
is spread shot good
i just tried curse of longing and merciful end build
it actually only works, if you got dire misfortune
i finally did it 😉 xD
guys what you recommend to pick up? eris or chiron upgrade ?
chiron really benefits from upgrades but eris is really good
get both. get the one you like to clear more first though
okkk thank uu
i imagine one build one guy said yesterday with poseidon/zeus and special upgrades
on eris
Zeus attack, specifically
Poseidon dash, specifically
Not just any zeus/pos boons
Is Zeus boons really that good? like over Demeter or Hermès or aphro
depends on weapon
if its a fast weapon with low base damage, zeus is better => fists, rail
Lightning strike is really good for the rail
also what would the best starting boon be the best for sword
which sword?
i kinda prefer dionysus on fist
Forgot the name but it is the 2nd Branch
but as it is right now it sucks
so i just only do it for the PS amp
id go artemis dash strike
yah but dionysis the problem is after 6 stacks you dont deal any more damage
you maintain the debuff after
I usually always use Dionysius as support for health or something
Strong drink has saved me a lot in my runs
unless you get low tolerance
ye
I like dionysus a lot in general, but with low tolerance is even better
wait, i can't check browser nor game rn but is ares' call included in the requirements for curse of nausea
it's also great
no
lmao
curse of agony, pain or vengeance necessary for curse of nausea
ooh, vengeance
yeah thats the fun choice
i can take it on my next demeter fist run
i got enough fun with pepegamesh run just earlier
😂
i plan to do a 5 god dot/crit run
Y’all know a good build for Hera?
Dio cast
Well idk what the Dio cast is but ok
Might go for something Athena pr Aphrodite of some sort
Festive Fog
Oooooh, nvm i know what Dio cast means 
have anyone a good build for the shield i rly like it but dont know how to build it probaly?
which aspect?
tbh i didnt play it very long and did the mistake to put almost any blood in the Gun so without any atm i try to get more blood atm
but i would play Zeus
or can i somehow farm blood?
Heat
so only through complete Runs and new runs then ?
Basically you can get it from prophecies and the broker but main way is raising heat level
mhm ok understood
whats a good build for arthur sword ?
Deadly Strike + Heartbreak Flourish + Heart Rend. Divine Dash is fine if you get it. Hammer doesn't really matter. Breaching Slash is good. Shadow Slash is good.
ty
Dash Nova is good.
First impressions of Hera, its baller
Concentrated Volley + Relentless Volley on the Charon Bow seems quite good. Thanks Daedalus. 
What's the best darkness farm strategies.
Do a heat you’ve already won, force Poseidon and hope for chaos farming boons
I think bow works well, if you get knockback+rupture on either attack or special and some other condition on the other like weak or hangover.
shield benefits from the natural knockback boons
wave pounding and sea storm both apply to shield attacks
same with breaking wave
The poisoedon Demeter cast duo boon cast is the worst.
Nah, the worst is Aphro/Demeter. The dem/poseidon duo can wreck things pretty well.
Speedrun strats with Poseidon boons would be Flood Shot on Hera.
Blizzard Shot is amazing.
one build for eris ? i have lightning strike and hazard bomb hammer rn
Get Tidal Dash on Eris.
Lightning Strike + Tidal Dash and just double-down on all their t2 boons.
Deadly Flourish is good, too.
lul i just god this deadly flourish xD
so next keepsake i think i pick poseidon to roll a tidal
ares aid or battle race ? i got a room of ares
What's the third option?
Battle Rage is alright. Not a fan of his Call, that's a big DPS drop on Eris.
@cunning urchin how do you make blizzard shot good? It doesn't seek doesn't implant and moves slow and the activation of the frost is slow.
battle rage is quite good, just not really on eris unless you get rockets
Is it best to just napalm and drag enemies into it?
its i got battle rage ty ty
KEKW this game is so free with this special
Blizzard Shot is strong because it moves slow and does massive AOE damage meanwhile.
It's a boss killer for sure.
Pretty sure blizzard shot doesn't damage you.
The only actions you can take that damage you that I'm aware of are hazard bomb, and actions linked to the damage-on-use Chaos curses
