basically chamber with mobs = ecounter

#

i see

violet scroll Oct 30, 2020, 4:47 AM

#

heyyy quick q, anyone have any advice for dealing w the witches circle? thx

frosty basin Oct 30, 2020, 4:48 AM

#

an easy solution probably involves taking Athena boons esp. Divine Dash

violet scroll Oct 30, 2020, 4:56 AM

#

hmm I see

frosty basin Oct 30, 2020, 4:57 AM

#

attacks can delete bullets so something like bow's special can help clearing them away

cinder harness Oct 30, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

Is there a way to get diamonds besides your first clear with a weapon?

tepid basin Oct 30, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

You can trade with the big shade in the lounge. It's like 10 nectar ?

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Broker, fishing

turbid compass Oct 30, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

@frosty basin achievements are retroactive if they're tied to a non-repeatable event like the fated list ones, if it was something like the 'pet cerberus 10 times' one though, they'd have to fulfill the conditions of that achievement

frosty basin Oct 30, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

Oh glad to hear they can be completed retroactively

#

uziHappy

#

thanks

#

Is there a way to get diamonds besides your first clear with a weapon?
||use Pact of Punishment and raise the heat to get new bounties|| (if you have not yet won a run, please don't click)

turbid compass Oct 30, 2020, 5:43 AM

#

@violet scroll best way to deal with witches circle without deflect is to dash behind one of the outer witches (I usually go for top left) so you're facing them and the rest of the circle and use a combination of your dash and your fastest attacks to simultaneously deal damage and break the projectiles, rinse and repeat. going for the middle one first is a trap without deflect

violet scroll Oct 30, 2020, 5:44 AM

#

@turbid compass thank u for saving my life

#

also @frosty basin thanks for the tip!

frosty basin Oct 30, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

Oh dang I.. never tried doing that

#

SVDerp

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:32 AM

#

Hello

#

At the temple of Styx

#

There are two powers up, one cost 300g, another cost 100g

#

Does the more expensive one offer something better?

#

Or is it just that the gold cost is RNG?

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 7:36 AM

#

300 ones level up twice

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:36 AM

#

I see

#

What does the anvil do

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 7:36 AM

#

for boons, it means higher rarity

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:36 AM

#

If I read the wiki correctly

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 7:37 AM

#

anvil removes one hammer upgrade, add two upgrades
all random

oak osprey Oct 30, 2020, 7:37 AM

#

^ sometimes its good. sometimes it can really mess with you

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 7:37 AM

#

be a little breakneck sometimes :>

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:41 AM

#

I wonder if the anvil can fulfill prophecies

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 7:43 AM

#

Can
But as we know, some upgrades are incompatible with other upgrades

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:45 AM

#

Reduced Trap Dmg 75%

#

is it saying you;re taking 75% instead of 100%

tepid basin Oct 30, 2020, 7:46 AM

#

It reduces trap damage by 75% meaning you take 25% of the damage.

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:46 AM

#

thats really good lol

tepid basin Oct 30, 2020, 7:46 AM

#

It gets up to 95% IIRC if you can get it to Heroic rarity.

#

It's really good defense wise yeah.

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:48 AM

#

I personally am not really a fan of it, but I can see the use

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 7:48 AM

#

Like ||heightened security 150 damage vase||

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:48 AM

#

That is true

#

Also do spoiler tag or redacted that :P

tepid basin Oct 30, 2020, 7:48 AM

#

Oh should I have hidden that behind spoiler stuff?

#

Whoops, i'll remove it.

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:49 AM

#

Yeah basically anything past 1st run Styx is considered a spoiler in this channel

tepid basin Oct 30, 2020, 7:49 AM

#

My sincerest apologies.

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:55 AM

#

If I start with certain god's trinket, does it increase the probability of getting that god's boon

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:55 AM

#

Yes, the boon in the first room will always be from that god then

#

Maybe it can also be a hammer, not sure

tepid basin Oct 30, 2020, 7:56 AM

#

I've found it to be about a 75 / 25 that it will either be that god or the hammer.

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:57 AM

#

and then that god trinket also makes it more likely for each boon choice to be rare or better

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:57 AM

#

I just failed to beat Hades

#

1st time

#

I restarted my run, I chose poisoden trinket, I get demeter first boon

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:57 AM

#

Do spoiler tag the final boss

tepid basin Oct 30, 2020, 7:57 AM

#

It can happen @amber yoke

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:58 AM

#

How many phases does the final boss have

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:58 AM

#

and yeah, it happens. Beating redacted first try is really hard

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:58 AM

#

It's kinda nice, I just unlocked ice, I never seen it before

#

maybe it's an unlock for me reaching final boss (my father) for the first time

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

Oh yeah you're right, you might've hit a story point that forces her to appear

#

That would be like the one exception when the god trinket doesn't work

tepid basin Oct 30, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

||Hades has, 2 invulnerability phases in the first " phase " and another 2 in his second " final " phase.||

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

I see

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

Next and any following runs should work as normal, giving you either that god or a hammer

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

After beating my father, is that the end of the escape?

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

Hades is a game about playing through it many times, the story will reflect that

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

So it is right?

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

Yes, for that run

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 8:01 AM

#

cool

quaint nebula Oct 30, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

I beat the game 73 times 🙂

#

I'm here if anyone needs help ❤️

first redacted clear is really just the beginning

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:44 AM

#

How do I ||get more blood once I've killed meg with all weapons?||

#

Would "new player" apply if I've never beat ||Hades||

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 8:48 AM

#

Final boss gives one too
After that you need ||to apply post clear unlock "pact of punishment" for more blood from meg and hades||

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:49 AM

#

ohhhh right

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 8:49 AM

#

Also the broker and, ||fishing on the surface||

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:49 AM

#

So beat the game and then do it harder

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 8:49 AM

#

Ye

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:49 AM

#

Also how do I unlock ||fishing||

#

I've seen people do it but I haven't unlocked it yet

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 8:51 AM

#

You need
Reach Temple of Styx

Fountain Chamber, Tartarus

Fated List of Minor Prophecies

#

Then it should be available from the house contractor for one diamond

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:52 AM

#

Is the temple of Styx in the fountain chamber?

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 8:52 AM

#

It's the last area

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:53 AM

#

Ohhhh

#

I still haven't beaten the ||bull and Theseus||

#

That's why I want more ||blood lol||

#

I've gotten really close tho

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 8:54 AM

#

I thought you did, because you said you haven't beaten ||hades|| lol

rustic crag Oct 30, 2020, 8:54 AM

#

not really new player help but I can't seem to ||unlock 4th aspects. ive beaten the game, i have about 30 runs and 15 clears andi didn't get the spear yet||

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:54 AM

#

||Spear is so good tho||

rustic crag Oct 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

||wouldn't know D:||

quaint nebula Oct 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

@rustic crag talk to achilles

rustic crag Oct 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

i did everything the sites say

keep doing it 🙂

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

Check the pins in #h1-story-discussion
Then you have rng problem

I've gotten to like the last sliver of health and then he deals 20 DMG with ||his spear||

rustic crag Oct 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

i for sure do

#

i have every aspect||

#

GWjiangoOmegaLUL

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

Yeah you might have a lot of dialogue backed with with Achilles, if so it can take a few runs to get to the correct line

rustic crag Oct 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

yeah but its weird. ive never not talked to him

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

Worst case you could try doing a few suicide runs in Tartarus to try to trigger it

rustic crag Oct 30, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

that was my plan

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

if you're sure you've spent 6 blood in aspects and beaten the final boss

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

Is the temple of Styx ||the maze area, cos I've seen a friend get there||

rustic crag Oct 30, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

yeah. some gods like ||zeus triggered their 4th aspect conversations with me already. can't get them tho since spearman hates me D:||

little jewel Oct 30, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

||Spearman loves me :3||

quaint nebula Oct 30, 2020, 9:24 AM

#

Maybe you have it already?

sturdy igloo Oct 30, 2020, 9:40 AM

I'm running Eris Gun and I have Zeus attack + Poseidon dash. Aphrodite just popped up with Special, cast and different league. what should I choose? they're all epic

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 9:41 AM

#

I'd say special if you hit them bombs

sturdy igloo Oct 30, 2020, 9:42 AM

#

yea its between special and DL for me, just wanted to hear the logic so i can learn

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 9:42 AM

How do I get more titan blood

sturdy igloo Oct 30, 2020, 9:42 AM

one thing that popped into mind was: is Aphro the highest +% special damage?

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 9:42 AM

#

Ye

formal rover Oct 30, 2020, 9:42 AM

#

yup

sturdy igloo Oct 30, 2020, 9:42 AM

#

(but i guess even if she isn;t, maybe not worth rerolling since i got it my 3rd boon)

formal rover Oct 30, 2020, 9:42 AM

#

aphro has the highest +% damage for everything

sturdy igloo Oct 30, 2020, 9:43 AM

#

How do I get more titan blood
@amber yoke beat first + last boss = 2 per weapon per heat setting. trade ambrosia's for it, or buy it with keys as a special deal. there are some Fates unlock rewqards too

formal rover Oct 30, 2020, 9:43 AM

#

the only exception is cast (where dio is higher) and call (because her call doesn’t do damage normally; dio is highest again)

sturdy igloo Oct 30, 2020, 9:43 AM

#

oh sweet

#

wow this is a good run so far then lol

amber yoke Oct 30, 2020, 9:44 AM

#

im on hellmode

#

i cant beat last boss lol, need some upgrades

sturdy igloo Oct 30, 2020, 9:44 AM

#

anyway ty guys

formal rover Oct 30, 2020, 9:46 AM

#

@amber yoke ||if you’ve beaten the game at 5 heat, you’ll get more bounties if you go up to 6||

#

||if you haven’t beaten it at 5 yet, going up won’t help you i’m afraid||

i'm a new player
should i focus to gain darkness or key?

pastel cipher Oct 30, 2020, 9:56 AM

#

how much of the mirror have you unlocked?

muted latch Oct 30, 2020, 9:59 AM

#

key since you need them to unlock all tiers of mirror upgrades

#

both tbh

#

but keys are more important

#

it's 60 keys to unlock the entire mirror iirc so might take you about 10-15 runs depending how deep you go

sturdy igloo Oct 30, 2020, 10:04 AM

#

I'm running Eris Gun and I have Zeus attack + Poseidon dash. Aphrodite just popped up with Special, cast and different league. what should I choose? they're all epic

how much of the mirror have you unlocked?
@pastel cipher i didn't unlock any extra upgrades yet

pastel cipher Oct 30, 2020, 10:18 AM

#

both keys and darkness, with a lean towards keys early on, as weapons will require them as well to unlock

hidden acorn Oct 30, 2020, 10:20 AM

#

thanks both of you dusaHeart

no worries, hope you enjoy bittie3

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 10:23 AM

#

Even later on, keys trade up to nectars pretty well. Which is generally a resource you'll likely be hurting for

lucid elk Oct 30, 2020, 10:24 AM

#

theres the special trade of 15 keys for blood too

#

so keys are always handy to keep on you

pastel cipher Oct 30, 2020, 10:24 AM

#

that's an incredible deal

#

and always worth taking when it shows up if you have enough keys for it

hidden acorn Oct 30, 2020, 10:27 AM

#

well.. when will dark regeneration open?

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 10:27 AM

Hmm I dont remember when you get the green talents

muted latch Oct 30, 2020, 10:28 AM

#

it's about 10 runs in iirc?

it's tied to a conversation with Nyx I believe

@leaden whale Get in the habit of checking the chamber number before going down a Chaos gate!

supple linden Oct 30, 2020, 6:02 PM

#

there is a simple rule in Hades

#

If you grab a ||chaos attack curse|| then the boss will show up at 1 encounter left.

No matter how careful I be it always happens, every dang time. T_T

cursive prism Oct 30, 2020, 6:04 PM

#

Always important to check what the counter on the specific debuff is, there is both "chamber" and "encounter"

#

Chamber counts anything like shops and fountain rooms afaik

#

While encounter is only rooms with enemies

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 6:16 PM

#

Is it possible to get to and beat the final boss without boons? By this I mean mostly washing them off/selling them after every area

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

That'd be hard, but maybe it's possible with some level 5 aspects and Sysiphus' keepsake

#

Also, I assume you'd be buying all the Centaur Hearts in that case, so you'd have like 500 HP

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 6:18 PM

Naturally

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

Unfortunately, depending on how Styx works out, you might be forced to take a boon or two

I never thought I'd hear the words "Unfortunately" and "take a boon or two" together

supple linden Oct 30, 2020, 8:35 PM

if you beat the game with 60% god mode then you beat the game. Games are suppose to be fun and if you need a bit of help to have fun then that's fine.

Does the existence of god mode imply zagreus is not a god

I see what you're doing but I think it's entirely non diegetic

supple linden Oct 30, 2020, 8:38 PM

the existence of god mode implies the existence of mortal mode

#

and mortal mode sounds like a fighting game

a combative mortal fighting game hmm?

xDD

supple linden Oct 30, 2020, 8:48 PM

Mortal mode is you play as a random dude trying to get into hell. you get a normal sword and start from styx. The first room you have to fight Cerberus. If you die the game uninstalls itself and bricks your computer

dusty gate Oct 30, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

Dying would be the fastest way lol

#

Why would anyone be trying to get into hell

nova helm Oct 30, 2020, 8:51 PM

mortal nebula Oct 30, 2020, 9:00 PM

in the mythos theseus got stuck to a rock and herakles rescued him

#

getting stuck to a rock was also punishment for trying to abduct the queen of the underworld

nova helm Oct 30, 2020, 9:06 PM

#

They ||weren't dead when they first made it to the Underworld.||

#

||Orpheus came looking for Euri, and Theseus came with a friend who wanted to kidnap Persephone away from Hades.||

#

||The friend is the one who wanted Persephone for himself so... he's still stuck to that rock while Theseus made it out.||

I maxed out Meg and Than first, but I basically just threw nectar at everyone. So many good characters.

If it's a lock on the heart it means you have to do a "favour" for them, I think someone else can help with that

dense dust Oct 30, 2020, 11:36 PM

yeah ive heard lol

#

should i just make a new profile with hell mode off? it took me around 20 attempts fpr my first clear

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 11:37 PM

#

Besides hellmode's an all new file, why farm all over. It just ||pact of punishment on heat level5 right off the bat||

#

Which you have access to in normal mode now too

dense dust Oct 30, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

oh im already in hell mode

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

imo hell mode isn't worth it in the first place, but now you're at the point of convergence where hell mode's difficulty... doesn't really mean much

dense dust Oct 30, 2020, 11:39 PM

#

i have so much trouble when i get to the 3rd realm boss

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:39 PM

#

it's purely early game difficulty, now it simply manifests as ||inflexibility in pact modifier choice||

leaden whale Oct 30, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

Ah like that I see, well whatever floats your boat MothEyez, but I'd not start a new file when both are not too different
Well Onyx better explained than I did

dense dust Oct 30, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

thanks!

#

do you guys have any tips for the 3rd realm boss?

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:42 PM

#

uhhhh, one sec

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 11:43 PM

#

do you guys have any tips for the 3rd realm boss?
@dense dust Dont get hit

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

when theseus spins or throws, he always walks away from your position, turning his back towards you. things that say they pierce will go through his shield. whenever he calls for aid, he is vulnerable from all angles and is basically a sitting duck

spins will always occur in melee. at range he'll throw his spear, which has a very clear audio cue and visual telegraph (dash a little after the reticle turns bright red)

his purpose is to facetank your attacks and be annoying while asterius pummels you into the ground. it's a fight that teaches you to have quick reaction times and tests your knowledge of boss patterns by throwing two of them at you

his tag-team attack (bull horn) has a telegraph in that he will call out to asterius beforehand and slowly walk towards the bull. however, in the heat of combat, this can be hard to see/hear, so keep your eye out

dense dust Oct 30, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

which should i take out first?

candid nimbus Oct 30, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

generally Asterius

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

^

candid nimbus Oct 30, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

There is a minority that would go for Theseus first though

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

for a challenge i try to take down both at the same time, purely bc it's satisfying 😛

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

If you're good enough to take down Theseus first, you dont really need to be asking for tips in this channel imo

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

always stay behind asterius, you need to learn his attack patterns

dense dust Oct 30, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

thanks guys! love this game and this community so far is awesome

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

when theseus is being annoying to all hell, you need to have asterius down pat so you can keep the damage up on the bull while avoiding theseus's attacks

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

I recommend taking a Call that grants invulnerability for Theseus' second phase

#

It really helps you out

pulsar frigate Oct 30, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

this generally means always staying behind asterius, and always anticipating a leap attack (which means dashing behind asterius again)

sweet root Oct 30, 2020, 11:51 PM

#

always stand behind bull man

#

none of his attacks hit behind him (maybe one of his shockwaves does? but thats really telegraphed)

cinder harness Oct 30, 2020, 11:54 PM

#

I have issues with ||Hades||, idk what to do on the second phase

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

Pray

sweet root Oct 30, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

what about it don't you know

#

its mostly the same as the first phase, with like two extra moves to worry about (||but he doesnt turn invisible anymore||)

#

so you should just do the same thing as you did before

zinc dagger Oct 30, 2020, 11:56 PM

#

For the ||all around beam|| get cover or get uncomfortably close to him

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 11:57 PM

And you don't have to worry about|| any more summoned minions|| either

#

For the ||all around beam|| get cover or get uncomfortably close to him
@zinc dagger OR get Ares/Athena/Poseidon call and just slam through it

aphro call works too

cinder harness Oct 30, 2020, 11:57 PM

For the ||all around beam|| get cover or get uncomfortably close to him
@zinc dagger

This is what I was having issues with, didn't know how to not get hit hard

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

Just stand behind a pillar

sweet root Oct 30, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

you can dodge it by hiding behind a pillar

harsh leaf Oct 30, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

Prioritize extra dashes from Hermes, too, that'll help with the zip zooping

sweet root Oct 30, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

there's also no hitbox right on top of the boss, so if you're comfortable with it you can stand directly in the center of the attack

#

but I would recommend just hiding behind a pillar

#

since it's much, much easier to do

cinder harness Oct 30, 2020, 11:59 PM

#

There are pillars?

sweet root Oct 30, 2020, 11:59 PM

#

there are two pillars in the fight

#

look for them the next time you do it

zinc dagger Oct 31, 2020, 12:01 AM

#

One on the left one on the right

static anvil Oct 31, 2020, 12:03 AM

My biggest obstacle right now is getting more nectar and deciding between a good run and more ||prophecies||

harsh leaf Oct 31, 2020, 12:04 AM

#

How much gems you got? Nectar isnt that hard to come by if you're willing to not buy cosmetics for a few runs

static anvil Oct 31, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

I don't buy much cosmetics anyway ~~brokegang~~ I try to buy when it sells Nectar for a good bargain

harsh leaf Oct 31, 2020, 12:06 AM

At fifty gems a pop

Really? Not for me....

harsh leaf Oct 31, 2020, 12:07 AM

The point is that you can trade gems for every other resource

static anvil Oct 31, 2020, 12:11 AM

#

:0 guess it's time to farm gems

#

Which is fairly easier

quiet silo Oct 31, 2020, 12:13 AM

#

No the conversion rate is fine but it isn't great. Let the gems come naturally.

#

To be fair, it is good advice

harsh leaf Oct 31, 2020, 12:21 AM

#

Which part is the one that gives you trouble? Are you handling Asterius alright?

static anvil Oct 31, 2020, 12:22 AM

#

Dont you have the upgrade that makes bosses drop gems?
Not yet 👁👄👁

viscid idol Oct 31, 2020, 12:22 AM

#

I can't really seem to get past the first bit of the encounter. I end up taking lots of damage from Asterius yeah

#

It's hard to not get hit by Asterius, deal damage to him, and also avoid the spear of Theseus.

harsh leaf Oct 31, 2020, 12:24 AM

#

You should be focusing on taking down asterius first

#

Just avoid Theseus, and try to learn how to dodge the spear

#

The reticle will glow red when he's about to strike, so you can dash away or get behind a pillar

#

Remember! You can dash through the pillars. The enemy cannot.

viscid idol Oct 31, 2020, 12:25 AM

#

Yes

#

What blessings and stuff should I focus on getting? Or should I just take it as it comes

#

Because rn I've been trying to get a sort of combo thing I've noticed which is aspect of Poseidon + Exit wounds

harsh leaf Oct 31, 2020, 12:31 AM

Dont worry too much about "combos"

Right now I suggest trying to take Athena's Dash and Call, which will really help you out

for blue laurels you get twice(?) the amount of reward you'd get normally

so two keys instead of one, etc

#

the longer you play in the early parts, im still there honestly, youll use keys to buy weapons
then use blood to unlock/upgrade the aspects.
blood is from redacted source.

amber yoke Oct 31, 2020, 6:09 AM

#

I'm using the Rail

#

The second aspect is called Aspect of Eris

#

Which is locked for me

Ah yes you need more blood

amber yoke Oct 31, 2020, 6:10 AM

but 2nd aspect is locked

Artemis, imo, only good for support fire

Rail's attack is better with flat damage boons like Dionysus and Zeus, special with +% buffs

#

Doesn't really benefit from fiery presence, I think

like wow having more boons is good

#

who knew

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 9:12 AM

#

I have been turning off dark foresight because I want more fated keys

#

Too many boons might hurt when pomming so I will purge my lesser used boons when I can

#

hurts more if you run ||pom blossom||

quiet cypress Oct 31, 2020, 9:14 AM

#

the issue is that also decreases the number of pom rooms you get

#

when you could just do fated authority to avoid bad boons

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 9:15 AM

Tbh just give me twin shot and rapid fire on zag bow, that combo feels so nice

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 9:16 AM

@nova owl check the pins in #h1-story-discussion

#

Spear really depends on how you wanna use it, but generally Aphro and Artemis are fine until you get flurry stab then zeus attack is very good

#

Unless you are a madman like me and like using spin attack

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 9:53 AM

From my experience with the spear it's fairly god agnostic

You can usually run whatever and make it work

I don't always take Chaos if the next chamber allows me to get a boon that I can use to build towards duo/legendary, or a hammer/Hermes boon, etc. It's case-by-base honestly

Beware the fancy glowing bozos on your quest

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 12:27 PM

i'm mostly a turned based rpg player (othercide, troubleshooter, darkest dungeon) and ive been trying to try bastion and hades out. its hecka intense so i was wondering if anyone had tips for the skelly glowing dudes w bombos

fossil spindle Oct 31, 2020, 12:27 PM

#

Dash in, one or two hits, out, same again

amber yoke Oct 31, 2020, 12:27 PM

#

yeah game is pretty tense lol

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 12:27 PM

#

The spooky bombers' moves are telegraphed so honestly it's down to learning when they throw a bomb then jump, when they throw three bombs then jump

fossil spindle Oct 31, 2020, 12:27 PM

#

Atleast thats my take

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 12:28 PM

#

Also you can't stunlock armoured mobs with attacks as you can with unarmoured

#

Sometimes I still get caught by their triple bomb move honestly

nova helm Oct 31, 2020, 12:29 PM

#

Yeah, that sometimes gets me too sometimes.

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 12:30 PM

#

good thing I haven't run with ||HL on|| yet OuroborosSlain

#

FWIW they'd be easier to deal with using ranged weapons if you aren't confident enough to close in for melee

#

More room for error when dashing out of the bombs' way

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 12:31 PM

#

The most dangerous move they do I find is when they decide to hold the bomb over their heads, then they'll slam it down on the ground a split second later

#

Doesn't give you as much time to respond

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 12:31 PM

#

those are a different mob I think

#

slam-dancers

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 12:31 PM

#

Oh they might be

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 12:31 PM

#

they don't even attack outside of their self-bomb move

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 12:31 PM

#

Oh really? I guess I'm just dumb

frosty basin Oct 31, 2020, 12:31 PM

#

zero range unlike the other skelly bombers

#

iirc

fossil spindle Oct 31, 2020, 12:36 PM

#

I fricking hate Doomstones

trim thicket Oct 31, 2020, 12:37 PM

#

orange ones = throws bombs that explode after landing
green ones= throws a (kinda) homing projectile
purples ones = slams down in place (not ranged)

#

^ for the skelly bombers^

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 12:39 PM

#

That homing projectile destroys my hopes and dreams with the Thanatos trinket

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 12:42 PM

#

idk what the name of the one that throws yellow(?) ones on tartarus are

#

inferno bomber

mental widget Oct 31, 2020, 12:44 PM

#

Yeah you're talking about the orange ones

#

As long as they have the yellow glowy thing around them you should be careful

#

You can't really stun them when they have their shield on

#

Just get a few hits at a time in and keep dashing to get away from bombs

#

Once their shield is down you can just spam attacks on them

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 12:45 PM

#

so hit and run?

mental widget Oct 31, 2020, 12:45 PM

how can i gain god's aid call stock?

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 12:55 PM

#

Hm?

#

The god gauge charges up automatically as you deal and take damage (I think it's hit-based mostly)

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 12:57 PM

#

deal or take damage
Athena has a boon that grants some before every fight
Hermes has a passive regen
Aphrodite+Zeus duo boon limits is to one bar but charges up fast automatically
Poseidon has a boon that increases charge rate everytime you take hit

#

It'll revert to zero after every fight

#

Artemis provides boosted charge gain on crits

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 12:57 PM

#

and weapons that hit more times like the fists charges up the gauge faster than the bow from my personal experience

hidden acorn Oct 31, 2020, 12:58 PM

#

wow thanks guys

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 12:58 PM

#

Charon's well has an item called Aether Net, provides charge like Athena's boon

Hey whats up with that thing you get for beating a boss once per weapon

#

Ive got 2 of them and have no idea what do to with it

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 12:59 PM

#

Unlock all weapons and it shall be made clear

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 12:59 PM

yeah it seems you're too early in for it to matter now

carmine dragon Oct 31, 2020, 12:59 PM

#

Oh alright

#

I do like how the combat feels alot like the one in Bastion just a bit more polished, so getting the keys shouldnt be hard

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 1:00 PM

#

For now just hang onto them, so you dont toss em away at the trader or something

carmine dragon Oct 31, 2020, 1:00 PM

Quick question - do you get anything for maxing an npc’s affinity?

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 1:08 PM

#

There's two stages of affinity with every NPC

dusty gate Oct 31, 2020, 1:08 PM

#

I know that

#

I just want to know what happens when you hit the max

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 1:08 PM

At the maximum amount of hearts you can get, you get ||a cosmetic little thing in the keepsake locker||

Yesterday I had such an OP bow build that I was super close to beating || theseus || on my first run against him. I would’ve won if it wasn’t for the stupid || Artemis arrows || he started using out of nowhere

hidden acorn Oct 31, 2020, 2:05 PM

#

Is there a tip for beating theseus and asterius?I've been playing for 8 hours and still haven't get through

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 2:06 PM

#

Whenever you see that he’s locked onto you, spam dash

#

Especially if you have multiple

nova helm Oct 31, 2020, 2:06 PM

#

My advice is to focus Asterius first and try to fight him behind the pillars. The pillars will block Theseus's spear.

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 2:06 PM

#

I unfortunately didn’t figure that out until I had already used death defiance twice

cursive prism Oct 31, 2020, 2:09 PM

#

Yeah Asterius should be the first one dying, otherwise fighting both of them with the god rage going out will be rough

sour kite Oct 31, 2020, 2:44 PM

#

@hidden acorn ||you can dash through pillars to stop his endless charge at you. Try to learn their attack patterns so you can dodge them. They all have telegraphed attacks that are similar to foes in Act 3||

Double Nova is the one I think is best from those

#

I think Dash Nova is actively harmful, but it's certainly fine at low heat

pulsar frigate Oct 31, 2020, 3:33 PM

dash nova is fine lol

just gotta know the dash length and it’s perfect for safe positioning

fossil spindle Oct 31, 2020, 3:45 PM

#

Is there a common understanding here about the best weapon? I heard the shield is considered to be one of the best

dense laurel Oct 31, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

if u mean safest, sure

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

I thought the shield was OP at first, but now I know it's not as great as I once thought

#

At first, it feels amazing, but then later on you realize it doesn't deal enough damage to be considered the best

dense laurel Oct 31, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

u want great weapons, just look at speedruns

harsh leaf Oct 31, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

Shield is definitely easiest. Currently, Eris Rail is the fastest for speedruns, so that can be one answer for "best" weapon

leaden whale Oct 31, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

My favorites are the Rail and the Bow

dense laurel Oct 31, 2020, 3:48 PM

my fav is hidden fist and eris

You need to unlock five aspects, not invest 5 blood

After Asterius is dead Theseus shouldn't be too difficult

every time he does his spear throw, he walks away from you. thats your window

formal rover Oct 31, 2020, 4:58 PM

theseus only has a couple of different moves, so he’s pretty manageable by himself

He just wants to show off for the crowd.

@nova helm indeed; to truly defeat him, you much win in an extremely flamboyant fashion that puts even Theseus’ antics to shame

sand pond Oct 31, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

does pierce go through his shield

worn galleon Oct 31, 2020, 5:02 PM

the big key is that you have to hit after he attacks, not before. learning to jump in during those windows is key, especially since this is the first fight that requires it

@static anvil That doesnt reduce your range, it increases damage at short range

since his health is pretty low

harsh leaf Oct 31, 2020, 5:13 PM

#

Yeah but I wasnt even trying to zaglol

formal rover Oct 31, 2020, 5:14 PM

the high skill strat is to go for Theseus first; Asterius will follow you so they’ll be in the same place and you can fight them both at once more

#

it’s only us noobs that have to kill them one by one lol
