at his 2nd phase he summons a god you dont have in your side
He can summon gods you do have a boon from
do you have any video of that? never had it happen (unless you mean by having all gods on your side)
Doesn’t begin with a H
No comment
THAT'S OBVIOUSLY A YES
No it isn’t
||ye, is demeter||
It’s implicitly a yes
Wow
spoiler mark it 
Trash
|| put that around the word if you wanna spoiler mark it
Haven't seen an aphrodite boon in ages
I love ares ...his boons are good...I like the cast that turns into a rift and spins
give her a
to make her appear 
Give her orange juice
Why does hades pop up on my screen and say something about mortals ?
random dialogue
Lol
When you beat the first fury and she just gets depressed cause she knows she gonna lose 😂
Patroclus or Artemis if I have 2 death defiances and 75 health?
100
Max DD?
3
Get the third death back
Huh I thought maybe take the extra damage for once or healing
Depends on how good you are at noticing small projectiles
Yeah I'll go anger Athena instead thanks
Only take the bonus damage if you have much more health and all 3 deaths
Learn from my mistakes.....don't anger Zeus
also if you even use the attack in first place
100 health is definitely not great for elysium
Hm alright I'll take the death defiances though now I feel bad about loosing that one DD
Don't anger Dionysius
Yeah but the centaur hearts hated me what can you do
Didnt pick Zeus once....man tried k.o ing me
Who's harder, Dionysius or Zeus?
That would be a terrible Trial honestly
Dionysus is nice man
il say zeus
dio is pretty easy to ignore imo
Even Zagreus wants to fight Meg lmao
And it's Alecto...
Fun.
Wait how is Zagreus not a God?
Call me cheesy but Aphrodite love spell (idk what it's called)
I use that on my dash 🤣
||Isn't Persephone a Goddess?||
Yes
Zag is a god, yeah
Dionysus
Exception
Heracles
If One parent is a God, you're probably the child of Zeus.
Lol fr
In which case your lucky
Not so lucky
Rip hercs
Zag: wants to leave hell
Me: that's heaven
My man has Achilles down there ...why would I wanna leave
Damn Alecto 8s the hardest of the Furies by far
Something something “Honey you mean Hunkules”
Lowkey think zag a immature boy with daddy issues trying to runaway from his future kingdom ...oh wait he is
I hate those red skeletons in Asphodel
But I mean, I'd prefer Olympus too.
.....nah I hate sunshine plus when he leaves pretty sure death means gone
Or maybe he gets sent back home? Hahaha
Yeah but with the amount of Olympians up there he's gonna have plenty of allies in combat
Just imagine.
"Hey athena could you just stab me real quick? Wanna visit my dad."
Id rather be hades then live on Olympus....thier own mythology says hades is richier then them 😂
Man has a whole Kingdom
Aaand I died so I guess it didn't matter after all ;-;
Don't you love when ares calls you "my fav death dealer"
Made it to elysium again, beat the minotaur, lost when theseus was at like 10% health
pain
Same
Those lightning bolts f* with me
Imo Poseidon and Artemis give the best boons. What do you guys think?
I've had 80 runs and haven't beaten the two yet....
they have a lot of good boons, ye
Artemis yes
Poseidon no
If you stand directly in the middle you can’t get hit by them
I’m on run 26, I’ve lost to them 12 times now
Hells yes, Lernie hitless
I dream abt beating the game... one day...
I packed everything I had into the bow special
It was doing like 218% damage with 4 extra arrows and inflicting weak
Directly in the middle of what? I haven't heard of this
The theseus arena, lightning never strikes the middle
Only issue is, it leaves you in the open for his spear attack
? Is that for Zeus only
Huh, hadn't noticed
It’s so funny seeing the ground get charred black with lightning
i think thats after the aid ends i think?
It would be, each god has a different effect
Oh I didn’t know theseus had different abilities
This was the first time I’ve gotten him less than 50% hp
yeah depends on the god he calls
I had the one with the two rings of gray circles and (I think) lightning strikes
zeus moment
26 runs in, reached elysium multiple times, and I still have only seen meg
Alecto is my worst Harpy
Alectos pretty fun with a strong build, you can phase her before she can do anything at all
At this point imma find a streamer, cause I’ve never seen anyone else play the game and I feel like I’m missing some tactics
I’ve only caught her like 2 times
She doesn't really have a predictable attack pattern
Just had the fortune of fighting all the harpies
What do you mean?
Is there a randomness to who you fight? I’ve only gotten Tisphione for like the past 5-6 runs
furies*
😂😂
Just bad luck
So last four times were the other two
yep thats just bad luck
It's a 1/3 chance
Haven’t had the ex-missus recently
big brain statistics
I don’t think I’ve unlocked the others yet
🥶
Actually. There are two outcomes: you fight her or you don’t. 1/2 chance= 50%
Cause I have 26 runs, all meg
Maths
Oh wow
Harpies are Greek monsters that are just demonic bird women
The Furies are much more both powerful and important than Harpies
(til I’m a harpy)
Mine are 14 and all but last 4 are Meg
yeah they come after quite a few fights with meg
i shouldnt be in this channel 
Noice
same
Furtherest is getting rolled by the Minotaur
The one guy?
Yeah
woah good progress
How many unlocks do that revive can you have
Had a really awesome bow build which was essentially spamming quick Aphrodite arrows
I have stubborn defiance but the other one
3?
death defiance can go up 3
Yeah 3 but super expensive after the first one
so 3 in total
is nice :)
SD all the way
Im only at 1 😦
with stubborn defiance through athena you can have 2 DD and 1 SD
aphrodite is the main character
She my bae
do you know how to dash strike yet?
Although always have time for throwing alcoholic bombs lol
Stubborn defiance is for when you really want to use that one Ares boon to its full potential
Yeah think so
200% damage dash attack is fun
I just like DD cuz if I’m low health in Asphodel or Elysium I can kms for 30% hp
right i didnt think o that
you mean sd?
which
thats sd
Probably
15% damage iirc
after using sd/dd do x% more damage for the encounter
doesnt stack :p
pain
only the first death gives the bonus
pain.
watching a speedrunner is good
Haelian has overexplained videos on runs, although they're a bit long
I found Retromation to be really good
Lets Play stuff
I think this is excellent
Oooo love it when that happens haha
chaos early with a cast build is beautiful
Better then before first boss! Last time that happened I took the dash restriction because I am a masochist
the name of the hidden aspects are a spoiler 
this is new players channel
This recommends some questionable boons, and imo recommends lightning strike way way too often on weapons that really don't want it
lol dw
is recommending having 2 instances of hangover 
It is dangerous to go alone, here brave adventurer, take this guide.
you could have turned off the ping ww
Just saw that and yep love it!
Bouta stack drunken dash and Dio aid, final boss won't know what hit them 
that hurts even tho i just readed it
indeed meg best fury confirmed
murder lady 
I’m on run 36 with 24 successful escapes lmao
Apparently not lol
guide is kinda eh, can work under specific cases ig
i dont trust anyone to recommend 2 different boons with hangover
Shame as I am struggling to find good guides on this game
I feel like builds aren’t too hard
there is a guide in the pins too
Just choose the best option you get, it’s not a catalogue
and haelian has a guide on basic builds iirc?
Is there a way to tell which weapons I haven’t gotten blood with yet
I beat the Hydra for the first time whooo
Grats
Grats
Using the bow because bow is supreme
ofc
poge
Is Malphos any good
The Elysium boss is a double battle right
Yeah
indeed
ye, lightning strike, hangover, ME all are good on it
ME?
well ME is good in practically anything
Are you me
you
merciful end (athena-ares duo boon)
I’ve never gotten a duo
it makes deflect ablilities trigger doom instantly
How far do you have to be for duos to drop? I’ve never seen one
you can have them as soon you start the game
you need to have pre requisite for them to appear tho
Gotcha
ME needs ares attack/special and athena attack/special
do you have the codex and its upgrade?
I have the codex
its upgrade gives you a list of what boons each god offers, and what you need for them to appear in 1st place
buy work orders from the contractor in the house
And here’s the 3rd fury
Megs the easiest Fury by far
Alecto is fairly difficult
Just keep distanced and you should be fine if you're using rail or bow
Bet
careful with the beyblades 
Yeah they're fairly easy to dodge but get hard when the floor things appear too
what does giving the nectar to gods do after the first one?
for story reasons much, much later on
you can freely prioritize others in the meantime
Which gods should I take boons from with shield?
According to the guide pinned (which is pretty damn good!) any of the following
Ah wait I cannot post screenshots on this channel 😂😂
F
need to post it on other server then copy the image link
or use Imgur
Encountered thanatos for the first time

Best boy, best music
Best keepsake
I thought it was very sweet when I had it pointed out to me that Than gives Zag a keepsake that's specifically an incentive to be careful and keep himself safe
Don't run recklessly in there and get yourself hurt, you silly bag of mince 💕
You may not care, but he does.
whats the main purpose of ambroisia?
Gifting
turning into titans blood
In the codex, there's a heart gauge for each interactable character. Once you fill the gauge to full, you'll encounter some sort of scene; after that, they'll accept ambrosia instead of nectar!
Also as flicknote said, it's a 1 ambrosia = 1 titan blood exchange ratio, so it's really useful if you're just a few blood short of a maxed weapon
||aaaaaaaaaaaaa I died to hades again! I even had all 3 death defiance’s||
It happens to the best of us
Get up from the blood pool, greet hypnos, and go smack the final boss in the face
Oh yeah and spoiler that, please
Ambrosia can be used in the later game to upgrade some special abilities, too!
@trim idol (for visibility)
They're a bit spoilers but they can be very handy
Lmao you just need 13 in total, really
Why even use any other ||companion|| other than ||Battie||
||Because I want to hear Thanatos’s voice more, duh||
Fair, fair
Spoilers :(
I like the healing from ||Sisyphus'||
I didn’t know he was final bosss
nope
Anyway what's better to bring to the final boss Evergreen Acorn or Lucky Tooth?
acorn should block more than the 100 hp from the tooth
||assuming its summons doesnt hit you||
Which companion should I get?
And here I was trying to save the skeleton tooth to the final boss
tooth is good for overall survival but if you're just worried about getting through a boss fight, acorn is strongest
||bouldy :D||
I had no idea there were ||companions||
arent ||companions|| spoilers
I don’t know
i dont remember if you can get them pre final boss
xD
I don’t even know how many stages there are before the final boss
I learned about duos this morning
Wait final boss?
And that there are different furies
Like the ||first time or the 10th time||?
yeah issa learning process
clicking on spoiler tags has taught me a lot of things that I then immediately ran into
wut
||companions|| are not the same tho
I mean is pre final boss just from 1 run
I have not yet completed a run
Ohhh ok
28 failed attempts, last 14 in elysium :)
lolll
bet
cheez
U legit make bosses a joke
but its boring to shield cheese
id prefer to earn my first win
Still earned trust
I’ve never used the shield before, so imma give it a go
that way i could feel like I earned it
Tbh yeah
i mean shield is a fun weapon, its just boring and easy if you spam the block
Is rail considered an earned win
I like how they have ancient weapons and there’s just gun at the end
Why would the gun be first
?
I didn’t even take damage against alecto using the shield lol
how does one unlock the hidden aspects of weapons
check pinned messages in #h1-story-discussion
yeah i did that but for some reason nyx wont give me the phrase
i managed to unlock the spear one
but the sword wont unlock at all
well i guess you have bad rng
do you have to have purchase the hidden aspect of the spear before you can unlock the sword
or does it not matter?
no you dont need to buy it
Let’s go just got ||merciful end|| for the first time
man its been 3 runs and nyx still wont unlock god damn
how low is the chance to unlock it?
is there any logic to what corridor will have the item to pass in the temple or is it just random?
random
the only rule is that it cant be the first tunnel
they use similar boons tbh
I just don’t like not being able to attack that fast
What would you say is the best weapon?
depends, for going zoom the best are the spear the shield and the rail at the moment iirc
ok
for casual every weapon works, just find something you like
that was the only weapon ive beaten the game with
gun is great with the right boons
i got my first escape using the gun with the burst fire and athena mods
Instead of Meg I just got a different fury, what?
mine was with the hangover attack. a lame strat but you just hit him 5 times for the hangover and then just dodge his attacks
there is a trigger for that, now you will get one at random
bruh
bruh
yep
Dionysius or Artemis first trial of God's?
What’s a trial of gods
you have two boons to choose from, the one you dont choose will attack you then you get his
I struggle againset dio but you go with what you want
Just died to dio
Did I make a mistake starting the game on hell mode if never played before?
No you cant
Well damn
Hell Mode enables some features that are spoilers in this channel
not recommended for first time players but you can do it
I dont mean difficulty wise i mean like will i miss out on things that are in normal mode
Nope
U can enable god mode which makes it easier
they are talking about hell mode, wich also turns off god mode
As long as I dont miss out on anything thats good
how do i get megs doll
Talk to her a lot and give her nectar and eventually ambrosia
Ive given her like alot and now i cant give her anymore
If you’ve got a locked heart, there’s an action you’ll need to complete before you can give her ambrosia again
For meg it's just talking to her more, I think
Man what
What part did you not understand
After you fight the first boss some amount of times, she shows up in your room and says sorry and then you can give her ambrosia
I just beat the duo without using death defiance
congrats 
Woo!
I’m new to the game and wondering if I take an attack boon from one god, does it hurt my chances to find another attack boon from another god?
once you take an attack (or special, cast, dash for the matter) other gods wont offer their attack, and sometimes will offer an exchange
as in if you are using athena attack common, other gods can offer to replace it with their attack and rare rarity
I see. So the exchange is more rare than if I never took an attack in the first place.
ah, just in case is worth mention: there are something called pool of purging you can see sometimes in the chambers that lets you sell your boons for money
so if you took something you dont want using those can be helpful
Ok, thanks for the help!
have fun!
I will, it seems like a great game!
||What do I get from the heat gauge||
That's spoilers here
spoiler mark it in 1st place
||you add 1 heat (making it more difficult to escape) but you can gain the titan blood, diamon, etc again with a weapon||
i fixed it
how is everyone killing last boss cause even with 2 death defiance and the tooth rev thingy and i get destroyed on it even with the gun and doing 1.2k damage per special i still get killed any tips on boons or weapon that would help me win?
- Name of final boss is a spoiler in this room, even if it is obvious. II. Get the third death defiance, C. it's a pain
My advice is go with the shield, the block can help.
thanksss
Try using acorn instead of tooth for the final boss
And even for the third boss
And yeah there's a little trial and error, you'll get it eventually
acorn? i think ive got that ill try it
should I get stubborn or death defiance for the mirror upgrades?
if you die more in regular rooms, get stubborn
If you die more to bosses, death
I find death defiance more useful, as I'm starting to get used to the game most of my deaths happen on bosses
||how do you unlock aspect of arthur on the sword?||
idk if its post final boss so spoiler
a "hidden talent" of your weapon, you unlock it with titan blood
Nah you just need to unlock every weapon to unlock the aspects
Ah I getcha
To get the hidden aspects, check the pins in #h1-story-discussion
ty
thx
What's y'all's favorite build for the Railgun? Only weapon I haven't beat the final boss with
With the default aspect I had a good run today with Zeus strike, Artemis special and Zeus cast, using the Daedalus upgrades that turns the special into a rocket and strike seeks nearby foes
cant go wrong with zeus
I'll have to try that out. I do have a few points in the second aspect as well. I think my last run was gutted when I chose the wrong hammer tbh. Should've got the multi shot special one
Zeus seems pretty solid for the default aspect so far, it really adds up with small, quick strikes
I also picked Artemis boon that launches an arrow alongside your strike, special and cast. It was pretty funny that I actually beat Theseus before Asterius just by shooting and the arrows and bolts seeking him first
So, I am trying to get ||aspect of Arthur||, but I know I have to unlock the hidden aspect for the spear first. Do I actually have to buy the hidden aspect with titan blood for me to get aspect of Arthur, or do I just need to have the option to get it
Spoiler mark the name of the aspect, but no need to buy the hidden spear
Only needs to be revealed
Alright, thank you!
Got a question about ||heat|| and bounties, do you only get new rewards if you complete a run at the previous level? Like, I can't farm the first two bosses for further ||heat|| levels?
Yup, need to ||beat the current heat with the weapon|| you cant farm it
Quick question, for the hidden aspects of weapons where you need to invest 5 titan blood, does unlocking different aspects count towards that or no?
yeah, im pretty sure it does
Got it, thanks!
jsyk that the hidden spear works differently than the rest, you have to unlock 5 non-zagreus aspects for it, not invest 5 blood into the weapon
yeah I know I already got that one, I was just asking cuz I'm trying to get the rail hidden aspect
Triple Bomb or Cluster Bomb? I'm using second rail aspect that increases damage when you stand in your own special
Definitely not Hazard Bomb lol
I personally prefer cluster bomb.
That's what I'm thinking, less input on my part, more spaces for increased damage
makes it so I don't have to pay as much attention to where I stand
Oh wow it fires so cool, perfect for this aspect
also usefull fact, the bombs bounce off walls in the air, so if you line it up right you can bounce them into one area and get a ton of damage
Sick
I recently did the ares quest
And if finished it I had liek the conversation and I got the rewards but the hearts still locked
Idk what to do
the prophecy? That's different from the favor
Wait what
The quest has nothing to do with opening up the hearts
Bruh the wiki lied to me
What can I believe in anymore
Wait than how do I open the heart
Get a certain dialogue
Aka wait
Bruh
keep playing
Who
Megeara
talk to her a lot
The hearts open after certain dialogues
Also I’m using the spear I got all the darkness uograded but I can’t beat the final boss
my advice for almost anything heart related: keep calm and let RNG come to you
Like all my extra lives r usually depleted from Theseus
ok then you need to work on Theseus
Well you know where to improve then
Ya but I also just get bets by both
Liek when I keep two extra hearts I still die cuz idk he’s hard
random stuff off the top of my head:
Asterius does grunt - swing - swing, so take the grunt as a cue to get out of the way, or right behind him since his swings don't hit there. mind the shockwaves when he does the jump attack
When Theseus aims at you, there will be a crosshair on you. right before he throws, the crosshair turns red and there's a sound effect. his shield blocks front-facing attacks, but if you throw your spear and recall it quickly, it's guaranteed to hit him once. The pillars will block his spear toss
Shock waves are only with ||EM3|| though
Tldr
Take Asterius out first, stay behind him to hit him while staying safe. Avoid Theseus' spear throws, you can tell when he's about to throw, use pillars to block it
And when he's calling a god his shield is inactive. That's why you want Asterius out of the way, you can kinda go ham so long as you can move to avoid the god attacks
You'll find out later
Nothing you can do now
Saving up for max god gauge is incredibly powerful but not possible except for in 2 fights
Can't get it in a room
Ya I go for the minataur and for the most part he’s ok and Theseus and the spear people like u said they’re a red icon but I never se eit
Wait what two fights
The two you struggle with
Pretty much the only ones long enough to get the gauge to max
Theseus' spear when targeting puts a pink icon on Zag. Idk about it changing colour when about to be thrown, I just know the timing bc it doesn't change
yeah I tend to use the sound cue to dodge the spear
Oh I play without volume
Me too
And nyx mentioned that to sue liek access’s to the administrative offic for whatever I had to do it when the time was right and i don’t want to mess something up
That's how I tell
Also can u just liek circle hades around the one rock
Sue liek?
To use liek's access to the administrative chamber
First attempt with Chiron, I'm expecting to breeze through it. And we're off
Have fun
Though better to use #h1-discussion
I still feel like a new player lmfao but you're right
Nah ||Heat|| is a spoiler
Very true my bad
Also just realized that u can get the spears different forms from buying it I thought u unlocked and then upgrade it
Nope
Also yo get the nymoh to get to go to Orpheus
Ik I just thought that thing next to them for for uograded only not buying
What’s the best version liek achilies or hades
There isn't a "best" weapon. They're good at different things
Really up to preference
And isn’t guan yu soemone form chain what’s he doing in this game
But ya how do u get the nymoh out of there
Oh heck ya it’s letting me give ares ambrosia
What keepsake would you guys recommend
I’m currently using the one that Cerberus gives you and it’s maxed out
I want to get the pierced butterfly but the Thanatos guy doesn’t appear for me
Yeah, he's super rng
can he spawn anywhere?
the farthest I’ve gotten is the bone hydra in asphodel but I didn’t beat him
He can spawn in most areas
he can spawn in any of the first 3 areas as long you meet him for the first time in elysium
Acorn keepsake strongest for dealing with later bosses
Is elysium right after asphodel
yup
Do I gotta beat Theseus
Nope
Meg is the only one admitted in the house
Tis and Alecto are crazy
Finally beat the game
Also no spoilers but is they’re soemthing I need to do to get the true ending to what ever
beat the game more
Ya this so
Thanks
Also what happens liek I beat the game and soemthing abt new orange windows to skulls
Skully
that's considered spoilers here, but basically ||you can make the game harder to earn more premium currency. There's a help window that explains it||
Ye the rewards for beating the bosses
titan blood, diamonds, ambrosia
Keepsake
You should spoiler mark that name
||Her keepsake is post credits||
Oh how
How to spoiler mark? Put || at start and end of what you wanna mark
||thing you wanna spoiler||
Otherwise highlight text and click the eye icon on pc
Oh man got spoilered
Oh cool
And the answer is ||beat up dad more times||
So I talked to megaera || and like I confessed steeling and she just said nah and liek idk how to progress it and stuff||
Ooh I’m smart
If I have hoarding slash is taking Kiss of Styx worth it?
Depends how many dd you have
I ended up taking it and regretting it cause I ended up getting Patroculus ;-;
I mean, I rarely use the bow aside for certain stuff
Or when I'm bored
I usually stick to Stygius and Varatha
zeus aspect with a lightning boon on it
Perfection
spinny lightning beyblade
I accidentally put my first game on Hell mode. No wonder it's so hard
Went from 15 runs to beat Meg on Hell down to 2
Hell mode makes bosses easier
It does not
Is the anvil worth it?
it depends on what hammers you have already
I beat Meg on second run and I don't have access to putting Titans blood on my Coronacht. Why?
Oh. Do I need to actually be able to use them all first, or just have them in the courtyard?
you need to be able to use them all yeah
||how do you counter thesius||
||i can kill the other guy easily without taking anydmg almost but thesius blocks 90% of my hits and his sweep attack i can only dodge hlaf the time and its enough to kill me||
keep you distance
he always turns his back to you after a spear throw
you idealy never get into his melee range for him to sweep
If you empty dash through the sweep you can also get some hits on him (yes ik this is ultra late ww)
Hey, kiss of styx premium replenishes even your skelly's tooth death defiance, right?
Does refreshing nectar give a higher chance of getting duo boons?
Yup
Thats sweet nectar
Lol
gaem too beeg
is there anything that triggers the nix dialoge for ||aspect of arthur|| or is it just random after you get the requirements?
random, just keep talking to her
ty
Spoiler mark ||heat||
||Tl;dr if you do 1 heat with bow and you die, you wont be able to do 2 heat bounties until you go back and complete 1 heat||
Oh boy. OK thanks
How do you get the acorn?
to eurydice (asphodel ! room)
Ohhhh okay thanks
How come everytime I start a run Poseidon is the first boom it’s always him then sometomes when I choose a different boon he sends out like a wave that hurts me ha idk
Rng be a cringe
You could try another god's keepsake when starting the game!
And also try picking Poseidon in Trial of the Gods
O ok the keepsake I forgot and yea why does he attack me if I don’t pick him I think I picked achillies
I uh... Hm. How do you pick Achilles?
In the Trial of Gods the other God you didn't pick will be mad and attack you. There isn't a right answer
Are ||companions|| spoilers? I’ve heard them mentioned but never seen them in game
I don’t have any clears
You can get them before the final boss i think, but is spoiler marked anyways bc its rare to get one before the final boss
I'd consider them spoilers, yeah
It was two choices to choose a boon from Poseidon or achillis
You mean Artemis?
I’m pretty sure it was Achilles why is he hard to find or something ?
O maybe it was Artemis then he’s the one with doom agony or something
Thats ares
On the left of screen where you can see what boons you have and all that do I have to click on what I want to use or they are all automatically on cause I noticed when I click on them a gold circle appear on it
theyre all automatic
that circle is just deciding which boons you want to display on a list after you beat the run
which makes it easier to take screenshots where you can quickly highlight what made the build op
O ok thank you
I love the game. I really do. Is there a realistic end to the game? Like a heat level when you don't start discovering new stuff (story wise and also feature wise)?
I guess i should has here instead. whats the best strategy to farm darkness from 0 to Max? like how should i progess
spoiler mark ||heat|| to develop the story you dont need it, only escapes (until the credits) then nectar/ambrosia for each character own story
wait this channles says no spoiler, wait is only story meaby
Thank you.
ofc there is some dialogue there and there depending on ||the pact of punishment you have but wont get main story||
I had the lighting dash then I got to the second area asphodol and I don’t have it anymore where did it go
Does the boons reset or@something
did you use the red pool in the area before aspho?
turned the bow into shotgun 
Yea I did
Yeah thats why you dont have it anymore, you sold it
itll take over 100 hours before that starts happening
since theres insane amount of new dialogue and hidden lines for things like what weapons your using or keepsakes.
I saw something about the script being 30,000 words
thats actually not that much
witcher 3 has 450k for example, most books have atleast 100k
games like kingdom hearts 1 or assassins creed 1 have 30k. but for an indie game written by a single person...
the real strength is how those words are distributing into dozens of thousands of self contained interactions tied to gameplay progression
rather than dumped in long cutscenes
Rdr2 has like an 8 foot tall stack of pages worth of script. This game has a lot of dialogue, and a lot of it is like really well done and impactful, buy overall word count isn't super high
I feel like that's what makes it so good
The ability to make incredibly charming dialogue with a very surprisingly small amount of words
yep, quality over quantity
And yet this game is both high quality and high quantity
There's still so much dialogue, yet none of it really feels like filler
anyone using bandicam on this
trying to use game recording mode on it,but it doesnt work///
should I spend my darkness on chance for the boons to be epic or legendary/duo?
I have 2k to spend
whats the best bow aspect other then the hidden one?
and what build or boons do you run with the bow
still havent beaten the game with the bow yet
I use legend/duo more often
ty
Pretty subjective, but Hera is really good. Crush shot on it, ideally mirage shot and a bunch of chaos boons to buff it
most people dont but I like to use chiron, just get hangover on the special
Chiron turns the game to easy mode, almost any Special boon will serve it well. Seriously, Chiron is incredible. Get the hammer that gives you +4 arrows in your special, maybe the one that pierces and you're good to go
Zeus and Aphrodite's special are probably my favorite for Chiron
Relentless volley (+4 arrows) and Concentrated Volley (+3 Base damage per consecutive hit) are stupid together
Yes, concentrated volley is waaaay better than the piercing one, forgot about that
If you stay close, you're hitting multiple enemies anyway
If you manage to roll perfectly on the anvil of fates and get Piercing, Relentless, and Concentrated together, you’ve won the game
concetrated is nice but it doesnt help that much if you are doing hangover special for example
Then use Arti instead
I wasn't a huge fan of hangover on Chirons, I'll have to try it again
sometimes you get bored of arti special 
Aphrodite's on Chirons for some extra deflect might be the most satisfying image in the game
You mean Athena?
Right, always mix them up, even in game lol
Aphro is for the big damage
Unhealthy fixation with Aphro Special Chiron’s is dumb
Aphros Call...I didn't realize how powerful that thing is... Took out the final boss in almost one hit it was insane
No that's Artemis
Ugh lol
See? I'm still a new player lol
Dionysus’ and Zeus’ are better
Arti special is good too but it’s effectiveness is determined by luck
last time i used aphro call was to make theseus god aid hit asterius
How’d you do that through their 5 health gates lmao
BIG OL REDACTED CUZ IM ON MOBILE GREAT GAME THOUGH RIGHT
i think you should spoiler mark the ||2nd phase|| btw
Oh, it's in the blood 😩
*hands you the new player graduation certificate
That song was so damn good
How do you do the blackout thing I’m not sure if this is a spoiler or not but I wanna be safe?
|| on either side of message
|| on the mirror the perma upgrades have a button on the left of them that switch what they do should I care about that or not? Like they do different things so are some better than others||
Okay thankssss
||some are better than others, and some are circumstancial. The bottom 4 are better as green almost always. You should experiment and see what you prefer||
the one i most recommend is dark foresight (green side of olympian favor)
|| I haven’t unlocked all of them but the bottom 4 for me are Olympian favour privileged status thick skin and deep pockets||
Ah I mean absolute bottom
Ye this is the only one that should never be red
is not purple?
Okay so I’ll unlock all of it before I do anything crazy like reset it thanks 
Idk I'm not a smart man ok
I've been using the wiki for reference, they have it as red
The text is red isn’t it? Or am I colour blind
i said puple bc the icon of each skill
the last 2 skills are expensive, unlock all the weapons first before bothering with them
|| I’ve got all the weapons I just trade my keys in normally so I haven’t unlocked the mirror stuff lol ||
if youre a new player definitely epic tbh. legendaries and duos have specific prerequisites that you need to plan around. not only to get them at all, but for them to be meaningful to your build. (like half the duos only effect your cast for example)
epic caps at 20% and will be useful for literally any build
legendary/duo caps at 10% and youll still get 0 of each plenty of runs (compared to getting multiple epics)
so its one of those things where its better to start with epic just for the better stats now, but once you become familiar with the different epics and duos available and what the requirements and prereq boons are, that becomes better since theyre more transformative to your run
Honestly the only god that rarity genuinely matters on is Hermes, and getting to know the game is better than not. Without gods legacy I get very very few duos, with it I often get 2-3. There are prerequisites but they're often really generous and easy to meet
is not like you need to memorize the requisites too
codex is there
I think I beat the final boss twice before I realized the Codex was a thing lol, I was just winging it with boons for the most part
Actually what does rarity do? I used Eurydice to up the rarity of two boons but I noticed the damage didn't change. Do they just get higher number level upgrades?
better base damage
Late to the Hades party, starting the game up for the first time tonight on stream. Any basic tips or advice that would be helpful? Thanks in advance my friends!
enjoy! 🙂
Hey I’m no expert at the game but I’ve been playing it for a bit so I could come to your stream and help if you want?
Nice
nice
That would be great! I am aiming for around 7:00 CT time. I will reach out to you when I am on. Appreciate it!
Does dark thirst have any logic or is it just random? I've been wandering about that
Np I’ll be there
Well done 
Uh I can tell you in a second
yea, I keep waiting for it to go back to the sword...
It seems to be the weapon that you used the least in my experience but I'm not sure if its just a feeling or if its really like that
haven't had a clear with the sword yet
Oh yeah I think it’s random? I’m not sure it goes on random weapons for me no matter if I use them a bunch or not
got ||the final boss|| to like 20% health then died :(
:(
and I'm 8 darkness short of my 3rd defiance :(
"just one more run" then 😉
Rip
I think I got 700 around that in my last darkness run cause of chaos and 3 sunken treasures with oceans bounty
Yo what’s with like ||guan yu and Arthur having aspects in this game|| liek why
Dam I just can’t get past the second area I got to hydra once but I keep dying by those witches and they shoot these purple balls 100s them and I always die I’m using now how do I get through those witches
its just a reference to other myths and religions
It’s almost impossible to nit get it by
Any attack (except cast/call i think) destroys projectiles
Athena deflect
But like why in a game abt Greek gods is that in it
who knows
Uh normally I just get real close and spam my dash move cause I use spear idk how to help with what weapon you use
Also what with || Achilles having an aspect when he’s never the spear||
Even with the regular sword I use too
With the sword the special has a lot of AoE to clear projectiles
Pretty sure it relates to the fates and time being a big timey wimey blob or something
Cool
And Achilles spear was his spear when he was alive
So I can see that there are ||hidden weapon aspects|| are they like the 'ultimate' versions of each weapon? Or just a fun extra?
They change the weapon a lot more than other aspects
(and all of them feel "slower")
Are they worth going for?
Do we have a pinned guide for them here, in terms of unlocking them?
#h1-story-discussion pins
Thank you!
so i got to the end then died so im sad
You'll get back there again much easier than before, the end is tough
In the early days when your struggling with them witches I'd recommend Divine Dash (athena boon)
Those brimstone are so annoying
How do people use the bow in this game? It's so slow and I feel like using the range would just make boss fights take forever
It hits really hard
dash striking makes the charge faster and having a bit less damage
and depending on your hammer you change from fighting from range to hugging enemies 
Ah yes the good ol twin/ triple shot + explosive and /or point blank shot
pog
I showed that fight to my coworker and her reaction was "are those roombas she's sending after you"

Gayby jail
How do you get more unlockable equipment
What do you mean?
Best weapon is the weapon you like
But idk
Or shield
Shield is great against bosses if your goal is to not get hit
Blocking a boss can be easier than blocking a whole room of enemies
Idk how to block..
try the fists
I don't know which chat to ask my question in.
if it's about something you can discover before meeting the final boss, ask about it here
...
14 hours in and i find that you can, in fact, see your upgrades when picking a new one
Shield is the best beginners weapon imo
And later on you can switch to the bow because it takes awhile to unlock its final aspect
i found that out on run 40ish
I totally forgot I picked up the fishing rod. How exactly does that work?
You can find fishing spots along a run and you can trade in those fish to a chef in the longue for stuff like gems/darkness and nectar
How do I...find these spots?
they're glowy white spots in the water
Good work! There's three types of fish in each section of the underworld, and chaos as well
They all grant rewards when you turn it in to the head chef
Neato!
Ok i done everything to get the hidden weapons
What are the requirements exactly
For the fist and the rail
check pins in story discussion
deaths keepsake seems pretty dam good but kinda hard to pull off consistently
And remember when you take it off you lose the power
just gotta hold onto it the entire run as it gets stronger and stronger
does any body knows how the odds of boons of the same god's re appreciating
Once you have boons from 4 gods (besides chaos and hermes) you'll only see boons from those gods
So it turns into 1/4
what if i sell the boons do the odds change
No
is it just me or are herme's boons pretty bad?
I think Hermes has some good ones
bad news, recall, extra dash
hermes boons i love some are great
hermes have A LOT of meta choices
and to be honest, you cant go wrong with anything he offers
it's just a matter of how good it is, everything he offers is a bonus
hermes dash boons combined with other dash boons i can never take dmg
i like nearly all his stuff
besides jsut simple extra move speed
