i beat every souls game but man this game is way too difficult lol
#h1-for-new-players
solid remnant
it's not THAT hard
but if you've not played roguelikes before, it isn't easy either
part of the appeal i suppose
pleases both camps
don't be upset at dieing
sweet brook
cuz u gotta die a lot of times to get upgrades
that's basically the genre of this game lol
die a lot and learn from your mistakes
solid remnant
all that matters is you made it a bit further or learnt a little more
also spoiler but not quite
pine bone
how do i unlock hera on the bow?
solid remnant
you get all weapons
then you have the game like
YO THE WEAPONS BE GLOWING RED
and you spend titan blood on them
I'd suggest chiron over hera though
it isn't that hera is bad
chiron is just a lot better on low titanblood imho
dusty vault
Oh
pine bone
kinda hate cast cuz of the fact that u have to pick it up again
solid remnant
the cast?
oh you get a second layer of mirror upgrades once you've spoken to people enough
the other half makes the case single but regen
it's better as a default imho
sweet brook
the other half makes the case single but regen
Infernal is better than stygian for hera
More consistent burst damage
solid remnant
true, i was more saying that their annoyance about picking up the casts can be fixed
final dune
yea but that is sort of just part of playing a castspect
stygian kinda sucks except for a few builds
or hermes odds

howd my keepsake expire?
final dune
howd my keepsake expire?

gentle juniper

it says it is
during the floor transitions
i tried to select a keepsake i had used before
and it said it expired
final dune
oh
yeah
you cant use keepsakes youve used before
you can keep them on but once you switch off you cant switch back
gentle juniper
huh ok
solid remnant
yeah it's that way so you can't cheat with one time effects and rotate back
lucky tooth being a good example of why it is the way it is
fleet ginkgo
you can keep them on but once you switch off you cant switch back
can we re-earn them by gifting nectar?
dusty vault
can we re-earn them by gifting nectar?
They are only locked for the rest of that run
Gifting nectar past the first one doesnt have gameplay changes on most characters
solid remnant
yeah you can look into thoose items that summon things if you want efficency
or you can be me
give the pupper nectar and Orpheus and Eurydice nectar because they got me feeling it

sweet brook
||what if i do a no heat run? will i get lesser darkness? say if i have cleared ...
you get the same amount of darkness for each ||heat level||
celest fox
||yes. Repeating the same heat rewards increasing Darkness (and Gems with a Contractor upgrade) on each boss.|| Farming Darkness basically involves doing this and starting with Poseidon's keepsake for his resource boosting boon, then going for Chaos for more resource boosts.
You can get up to like 1000 darkness on the final boss
Potentially more but that is gonna be your average high end
1 epic Poseidon boon and 1 epic Chaos boon should net about 800+
final dune
epic chaos 
celest fox
You get 250 base darkness from the final boss
Poseidon adds like +125% Chaos can add another +125% on a good epic
Yeah ik
Still those runs are gonna be important
May as well be your ideal
ebon sand
What combos are best for aspect of nemesis
final dune
well
there are two big popular things to do with it other than shackle
which are
-start splash dash and take whatever % you find on attack
-start aphrodite or artemis and take the other into asphodel looking for heart rend
sweet brook
if you take artemis first you can also pick up athena for deadly reversal
next latch
why does shackle work for nem
final dune
it does the damage
sweet brook
100% damage kinda good
the idea is like, start tidal then switch to shackle if you dont get an attack i think
or start shackle and rng into tidal? idk lmao
but it is a legit strat, but mainly for speedrunning
wouldn't recommend it to anyone playing casually or trying to get their first few clears
sweet brook
well yeah but like
final dune
oh but yeah
sweet brook
newer players would rather have a defensive keepsake
final dune
although tbh
shackle means you're not making awful core decisions in at least 2 of your slots
sweet brook
it also means no acorn lmao
final dune
i would simply not get hit!
sweet brook

As a newish player who only just completed their first run, what aspects should I shoot for first with titan blood? I've been too hesitant to buy any of them

If only I wasn't half asleep on my way to bed, I would've remembered that pins existed. Thanks!
celest fox
Excluding some good Zagreus aspects
Sword: Nemesis
Spear: Achilles
Shield: Zeus
Bow: Hera
Fists: Demeter
Rail: Either
Zag bow and shield are good
When fully upgraded
sweet brook
for rail, eris is better atm solely because you need less investment in it to be good
celest fox
Others basically arent, though spear can be and rail works for one build
Fair yeah
I was thinking Eris first but I didnt want to upset jazz
sweet brook
zag rail also kinda noteworthy because it makes ammo management easier, but also delta chamber exists lmao
sweet brook
I was thinking Eris first but I didnt want to upset jazz
upsetting jazz should be an objective
celest fox
You can run it immediately and its really good
sweet brook
oh crap jazz is here
sweet brook
You can run it immediately and its really good
hera is good assuming you play crush or phalanx shot lmao
i guess technically trippy too i guess
sweet brook
you'd be surprised lmao
sweet brook
subreddit loves true shot for some reason
celest fox
I imagine that's just bad building overall though
Ah
True shot needs to be rapid to be good though
On hera it just doesnt work
sweet brook
true shot needs to crit to be good, but then at that point it'd just be crush shot damage lmfao
sweet brook
true shot into fully loaded into crush shot replacement based tho
sweet brook
the only valid true shot hera build
celest fox
True shot still is better than like beams probably
Can it work with ||beams||? Seems really weird
sweet brook
yeah, mainly because it's burst damage compared to damage over time
celest fox
Like there are worse casts
celest fox
Poor new players
If it were unlocked from the start the game would simply be too easy

The way the dialogue system works you wont miss those important dialogues
Basically npcs have a list of dialogues they can choose from and they will get prioritized depnding on recent events
So for example for now that you got your first win then yeah most characters will talk about that
But if you dont "advance" the plot eventually they will mention anything that they didnt say before
For example on a random save file I did, my escapes at the start were really quick that I got ||Achilles talking about my first escape well after the credits||

Alright, thanks!

Is Lambent Plume, Lucky Tooth, Evergreen Acorn, or Old Spiked Collar better
sweet brook
plume should just never be used
acorn is the best defensive keepsake
pallid walrus
I put on old spiked collar when I get to the end of a run where I'm like "ok I actually really don't wanna die on this one"
sweet brook
acorn can mitigate more damage in boss fights
with all 3 dds, collar will give 125 extra hp
in heroes, acorn can deny a lot more than that given it doesn't get wasted on small hits
in the final fight, ||each swing deals like 40 damage. the minimum damage you can get hit by is 20, and technically speaking yeah if you get hit by the 20 damage cast/skull wave each time, collar can deny more damage. thing is, that's a lot less likely and you're more likely to get hit by multiple swings||
||also you can potentially take 80 damage lmao||
grave hill
i usualy take skull over acorn.. its just easier usualy and the extra dd gives me peace of mind..
but maybe when im using a ranged weaponlike bow i go for acorn.. when i an actually avoid getting hit
i stopped using the collar when i realized u lose the extra hp after u take it off lol
dusty vault
I mean if you avoid getting hit e8ther tooth or acorn dont do anything
sweet brook
If you don't get hit, centaur hearts are worthless
pallid walrus

Is it worth reloading after every shot for Hestia aspect?
final dune
Is it worth reloading after every shot for Hestia aspect?
yes
hestia isnt good until at least level 3
take aphrodite attack
once you do there’ll be no reason to shoot normally other than maybe for numbskulls
sterile ginkgo
Is it worth reloading after every shot for Hestia aspect?
Yes. With Aphrodite it pretty much one-shots most stuff in the first level and can carry you a long way.
This of course depends of which blessing you have and that stuff, but you can definitely spend the run doing that every time
celest fox
Yeah thats how its played. Use fiery presence if you dont already
Chaos is good for more of that and attack dmg
Just reload and shoot. Dash strike too mostly I think idk it's hard to do that on controller
Just keep getting more damage boosts as you go. Just put it all on one thing, but pick up a special boon in case you get a good special hammer
A % special boon. More Aphrodite works.
analog pumice
Which god keepsake should I start each run with? Is their like a particular order like Athena for dash, Dionysus for the fountain full heals, etc...?
final dune
pick one that works with your build
poseidon for the dash is good in general
zeus for attack is good on fast hitting weapons like rail
aphrodite for attack is good for high base dmg like bow
viscid notch
Which god keepsake should I start each run with? Is their like a particular orde...
The first god you force should be something to provide you with damage so you spend less time in rooms and bosses. The second god can be some utility defensive option.
sterile ginkgo
It depends of what you want for your build.
With the exception of the Chaos and Hermes keepsake, all God Keepsakes Lock that God for your run moving forward and guarantees it will show at some point.
You usually want to aim either for something to start in attack/special/dash, or you are building towards some other boon from that specific God.
In general, don't get too broken over what that God gives you because what you want is to lock that God for that specific run
grave hill
can't go wrong with athena dash tho
especially while ur not sure what build ur goin for
just pick athena keepsake and hope for her dash
celest fox
It's good early but it offers no dmg which is important.
I would instead maybe suggest tidal dash unless you are specifically struggling with witches and even the Witches Circle miniboss
But you need to learn to do that content without Athena
Athena should just make it a breeze
final dune
idk athena dash is fine you can stick with it for a long time
lends itself very well to post game
celest fox
So if you are going for like Merciful End or whatever or just naturally pick up Divine Dash, that content/those enemies become a non-issue
Oh for sure
celest fox
It's just a tough 1st boon to take imo
celest fox
I'd rather take another core
celest fox
Yeah thats what I mean
I'd go with like divine strike sure
But its not contributing much in Tartarus
It does contribute a lot from Asphodel on
Though damage from it takes a little skill
Just deflecting projectiles at the right time. Doesnt do a ton but it's free.
Just dont let it be a crutch basically. It's more important to get your attack or special, depending on the aspect
Athena cant always be there

Is this one of those games like let's say enter the gungeon in which you can win every time?
sterile ginkgo
Is this one of those games like let's say enter the gungeon in which you can win...
In theory you can win on the first run yes
thick peak
Cos I'm at my 20th run and last 3 were too good not to take notice of
Granted, I did follow a ton of guides to see what boons ti pickup and how to build a set
thick peak
In theory you can win on the first run yes
Took me 15.
I couldn't clear first boss easily with sword. Even now I've gotta tank thro it using dd
And snake was difficult with bow
Now I'm little more experienced and might make it but my dmg still falls flat at one point
sterile ginkgo
The first run is the “hardest” because you go with no upgrades and a limited number of gods available, but the game allows you go do the full run if you are skilled enough
thick peak
I just bought fists
From what I gather its beat weapon
But it's close range only
I struggle with those
Last run was my first with shield but cos of hammer it was essentially better bow
Took me a while to learn what attacks I can tank thro tho. Took unnecessary dmg
final dune
Now I'm little more experienced and might make it but my dmg still falls flat at...
damage comes with learning build
thick peak
How much dmg is decent at the end
Cos I was doing like 600 or so it seemed
But then I realised its cos of 3rd floor buff for 10 rounds
That ego less warrior
On hades fight I think it was little over 200
BTW. When can I use titans blood?
And what should I use it on?
Probably Bow right?
I saw its a prerequisite for unlocking other op variants
sterile ginkgo
BTW. When can I use titans blood?
You need to unlock all weapons first

Dark foresight is probably more important that fated persuasion tbh

Srsly?

Honestly yeah
When I made a new file my biggest complaint was no dark foresight
Rerolls are whatever
They're nice but like

Ah no, I understand
sweet brook
DF means more boons and earlier hammers lmao

But I'm not playing rn to win
Tho midway through it always gets fun and I try to win
I'm doing it for resource s
sweet brook
Can save for maybe 1 reroll but other than that
thick peak
DF means more boons and earlier hammers lmao
Ye. I realises its strong
sweet brook
DF allows for better runs more consistently
thick peak
That's why I'm asking. How many rerolls should I have before I stop playing without DF
Currently I need keys for 30 key mirror unlock and another weapon anyways
sweet brook
Why would you turn it off
thick peak
It's not even maxed. It's only 10% in favour of golden
thick peak
Can save for maybe 1 reroll but other than that
You use 1 per run?
sweet brook
For context, a duo/legendary chances are about 12% per boon given you have the prereqs
And you can generally get 1 duo boon per run easily
thick peak
And what's the thought process behind it
sweet brook
You use 1 per run?
Well at max level you get 4
thick peak
Well at max level you get 4
Can't use more?
sweet brook
But if you want you can get 1 reroll and dump the rest into DF
sweet brook
Can't use more?
You can if you get fated keys on the contractor
thick peak
I already have couple rerolls but as I don't know how to build properly yet it seems a waste
sweet brook
Most builds hinge around a single duo so you can go through the duo list and see what makes sense
Granted none of them are make or break
But like it's generally good to go for a duo
thick peak
Yea. I'm starting to get the grasp of it
But it's all too slow ig
I can overthink it and get there eventually
But as I play slow anyways it's just a lot of rng worry in the end ig

Yeh gotcha

Charged shot moment

Final boss is a spoiler lmao

All calls give iframes on activation and that already makes them decent
thick peak
Just like dash tho
dusty vault
Always good to have more iframes
thick peak
Too much thinking
I have bad reaction times
dusty vault
Also Zeus/Dio calls can do the most dmg from the calls
Zeus gets insane with more zeus and on dio just pom it
Also dont wait for full charge in most calls
thick peak
Zeus got me killed more than once
dusty vault
Is not worth
thick peak
I usually take hunter/beauty gods call cos it does significant dmg when full so I just use it a bit on boss
I should probably get more comfortable up close cos that's where zeus (and half the games content) shines
dusty vault
Can also just have something like athena/poseidon as a panic button
thick peak
I thought poseidons was great and fun when I first got it but now I hear only Athens is good cos u can do a lot more dmg that way
sweet brook
I usually take hunter/beauty gods call cos it does significant dmg when full so ...
Full call isn't practical or used in smaller normal rooms lol
dusty vault
Athena can be used for both
sweet brook
Zeus or Dio will help a lot more in normal rooms

On slower weapons saving athe call for free dmg is good
But mostly is just a get out of jail free card
For me
Also most calls get even more ridiculous with smoldering air duo
sterile ginkgo
I thought poseidons was great and fun when I first got it but now I hear only At...
Nah poseidon is still a solid pick.
thick peak
How does call charge work
I thought its time based but then I got that duo
I thought its dmg taken/recieved but then i sae boom for that
So now idk
dusty vault
Dmg done/how often you do dmg/dmg received
That Poseidon boon you mentioned boosts how much call you receive by being hit for example
thick peak

How often you hit generates calls faster

None. all of them have multiple possible hammer upgrades with different bonuses. all of them depend of what you find the best.
thick peak
Max you can get is 70% bonus dmg which would be fine if it wasn't impossible and slow
But it means you'll have much harder time getting necessary duos and so on
Can't believe it was ranked so high on tier lists

Many hidden aspect hammers are bad, the best ones are like sword, fists, rail,
Fists are considered the worst of the bunch but it actually has the best hammer imo. It acts like Targeting System on Rail.
So very simple.

In my experience, dash strikes come naturally as you try to dash around and atta...
but on some weapons you don't want to be standing striking

Ergo why Dash Striking will present itself. Or you die because you were standing.

I'm trying this out on a dummy and seems odd
Why do I do two dashtrikes again?
sterile ginkgo
space -> click
Yes, if I try to do space -> click, that's when it feels awkward and I dont think I acomplish it. when I dont worry about wether I am doing dash strike or not and just move around, the Dash Strike comes along on itself.

Most likely but player experience of even knowledgeable people can be wrong. I was using this guide for a Hyrule Warriors game and it said something can't ever drop, that did drop for me.
Incredibly rare occurances
Still more likely that 2 is hard coded but eh I'll believe anything until I see the code myself.
Unless someone else can really show me what and how something works concretely.
Like I'm fairly certain I've gotten a duo from a 2 god room.
Can I confirm that? No, I dont really remember and havent seen one since.

General rules still apply though. Game devs might just want ultra rare occurances to be a factor.

Hello all gods in Hades game!
I can't beat THESEUS and ASTERIUS....I need your help.
onyx finch
Those are pretty though the first few times you encouter
them.
Using ranged weapons could help you with avoiding attacks.
Learning their attacks is key, dodging a lot, you have time, no
need to rush.
I usually focus on one at a time, Asterius, personally, is easier
to deal with first
I also only use sword at the moment so for me learning the attacks
and dodging was pretty much all I had.
Up close and personal is just fun for me 
outer zodiac
Those are pretty though the first few times you encouter

thank you for your advice 😄
I try to observe them and learn how i avoid attacks.
I usually use shield to block the attacks. But I'm always defeated by Theseus' God power.
onyx finch
I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.
It also took me a few tries to deal with them
How many escape attempts you had so far?
proven pivot
When God power starts, just spam dash. Not dash attack, just dash. If you do that, you're fast and invulnerable 90% of the time
Or if you get Athena's aid, charge it on asterius and use the greater call right when he starts his call, so you can freely wail on him while he's not blocking and you're invincible
sweet brook
theseus is also completely vulnerable when he first summons it right after the invulnerability bubble goes off, so you could attack him while his god call is going off
kinda not safe but can be worth the dps
celest fox
Yeah
I attack usually and just dodge
Too good of an opportunity to end the fight fast
I'm more likely to get hit by a lunge or throw or spin if I dont do dmg now
And the call only does serious dmg if you stand still and get hit by a bunch
I also use dark regeneration for a reason tbh
Best bet is a like Rail probably
Range but fast enough that you can maneuver
A harder to play but other good aspect would be Zeus shield
You can sort of just leave your Blitz Disc on Theseus for the duration of the Call
Shield also allows for blocks of Asterius and Theseus' attacks
AND if you get charged shot, you can ignore shields
Zeus is hard to play but very good for challenging content
sweet brook
zeus isn't too hard to play if you dont care about like dps cycle optimization
celest fox
True
sweet brook
if you want to play it well then it gets a lot more challenging
celest fox
Still that and its versatility and block are why it excels so well
Any shield will do solid anyway. Charged Shot will carry you.
It's both very high base damage regardless of charge, and ignores shields and provides range.
Very useful if you need a carry through Elysium
Just remember it is a very low dps weapon without Charged Shot
outer zodiac
I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.
It also took me a few tries to deal with the...
almost 100 times I did! There is no escape yet...
sweet brook
Zeus because it's halfway there to opening smoldering air tbh
Even without supporting boons it's pretty strong too
And your next Zeus boon has I think a 50% chance of getting static discharge so sure why not
sweet brook
if you're doing ME, just ignore the call
having a call gives you worse hermes odds
and ME scales great with good hermes
more dashes or hyper sprint + rush delivery is a massive boost
sweet brook
avoid calls until you get your second hermes really
or avoid calls until you get your third hermes in styx lmao
sweet brook
50/50 for it to show in styx, 1/whatever to get whatever you need
actually 3/whatever
celest fox
It's also a boosted rarity Hermes. I got an epic RD last run.
Top 5 calls are like
- Zeus
- Aphrodite
- Dionysus
- Athena

1 and 2 because they open smouldering air

Small call disrupts ||dad||
sweet brook
i'd put aphro 4th tbh
zeus, dio, athena, and aphro should be the order

Bought the game 2 days ago and I’m hooked. Finally got to the last story boss (I presume it was the last) but died. I’ve read that it’s best to focus boons/abilities so you’re a strong with 1/2 attacks instead of putting minor upgrades in everything. However I realised I hadn’t used a single upgrade for my cast. Is this a viable thing? Or should I always look to upgrade it once so it’s not the basic red dart?
dusty vault
If you arent focusing entirely on the cast dont think much about it
Base cast is enough if you only need the +50% atk/special buff from the mirror
Can also use it to fill the requisites for duo boons
Or sometimes just grabbing a cast like zeus/athena/pos for aoe or defense is aight
But there are builds focused on your cast being the main dmg

how do you unlock hearts? do I keep giving them ambrosia or talk to them a lot
Some of them have different pacing of dialogue to allow you to give them nectar again, also certain ones are locked behind quest progression(such as a certain court musician). Also in case it was unclear the hearts track how many times you’ve given them stuff, and as I said certain ones will be locked behind completing more dialogue or completing a quest.
fathom lichen

so a combination of both depending on who?

Yeah, for instance some of them will require x amount of nectar then will require an ambrosia(if other requirements have been filled) then might have one more ambrosia after that(most of them are 2-3 ambrosia if I remember correctly)

dusty vault
listen for a "ding!" sound at the end of combat or when entering a room and look a for a bright spot in the water
press interact and wait for the fish to bite (will have a white flash) and press interact again
if you do it too late it will get away and the faster you react the better the fish
fleet willow
Thx bro
dusty vault
there is also this
Nyaanyaa's Fishing Guide
There can only be three fake bobs, so the fourth bob is always real if the first three were fake. Fake bobs have an interval of 2-5 seconds while the real bob has an interval of 1-2 seconds. So if it takes more than 2 seconds, it should be a fake bob. Meaning you should look for the real bob within a short time after you start fishing or within a short time after a previous bob.
Personally, I just look for the white flash above the bobber and ignore the bobber itself. Some players have said they have better success when putting their thumb on the bobber to not get distracted by that, so maybe you could give that a try.
A Perfect Catch means catching a fish within 340ms. Perfect Catches are 50/50 on being a legendary or rare fish. Any other catch is 50/50 on being a rare or common fish.

Sound for fake vs real is also different

does anybody have a strategy to beat theseus and the minotaur
Pay attention to the marker on you getting brighter when Theseus is about to throw the spear
Dash through Asterius attacks instead of dashing away gives you more room to attack
To atop Asterius charge you need to make him crasg with a wall/pillar/Theseus
Wait next to one and when ge is about to hit you dash through him
If you dash to the sides/through a pillar he will have more time to react and dodge it
Also deal with asterius before Theseus reaches half hp
