shy gulch
#

and it’s weird

#

I’m changing that rn

true fable
#

f?

honest kernel
#

Do it on like G if it isn't occupied already

shy gulch
#

F works

#

it’s unoccupied

honest kernel
#

Alright, good

shy gulch
#

good thing is I’ll get used to that quick since I have to use interact for like everything

#

anyway gonna do one more before calling it

honest kernel
#

Cool

#

Honestly, was probably looking for Concentrated Knuckles more than anything

#

If I were to guess

#

But Heavy Knuckles on Artemis attack, on fists ?

#

That's an interesting route

shy gulch
#

spread fire hestia huh

unreal pasture
#

It's quite good

shy gulch
#

never done this before

#

I really rely on the range tho

unreal pasture
#

But ... I don't ever bank on crit/heavy knuckle...

honest kernel
#

First shot is normal

shy gulch
#

well whatever I’ll try it out

#

oh

honest kernel
#

Rest is spread fire

unreal pasture
#

Unless AP is off

shy gulch
#

oh cool

#

thanks

honest kernel
#

AP2 on

unreal pasture
#

ew

honest kernel
#

So he HAS to take it

shy gulch
#

chaos was a bad decision

#

oh well I’m getting tired anyways

#

thanks for all the help today guys

honest kernel
#

AP2 Chaos is a gamble and a half

shy gulch
#

yeah

honest kernel
#

Take care Croven

gaunt fiber
#

Night!

true fable
#

baj

#

hades3234 hits his megs

#

you got the notepad out?

unreal pasture
#

man... was taking a break due to tilt and salt... but watching him play Zag fist... ron

honest kernel
shy gulch
#

LOL

true fable
#

you and me both

gaunt fiber
#

I should use Meg once

honest kernel
#

I actually tend to not use Meg early, unless I hit the Sneak or the Barge

#

you ever meg and forget you have DC

#

or am i an idiot

#

I have, a few times

#

My mind goes like "Uhm, better hit him quick or that Meg's getting wasted"

gaunt fiber
#

Sometimes I try to cast Antos before hitting to get DC off

#

well Antos is fast boyos

honest kernel
#

Proceeds to knock the Doomstone out of the Meg range

#

WELP

#

But for real, I tend to actually not meg the Doomstone anymore

shy gulch
#

same

honest kernel
#

Unless I am in danger of dying

shy gulch
#

it dies so quickly

#

I shouldn’t meg lernie either but I’ve died one too many times to lernie to feel safe lol

honest kernel
#

if I find an extra summon charge

#

I meg Lernie

#

Otherwise, keep 'em for the Elysium miniboss, for the Heroes, for at 'least 1 miniboss in Styx, and for Hades

gaunt fiber
#

when do you meg at Lernie tho?

shy gulch
#

very end

#

to finish the fight

honest kernel
#

When the second wave of heads end

gaunt fiber
#

Yeah I see

#

classic

#

I watched resqtoaster yesterday

true fable
gaunt fiber
#

He meg after phase 1

#

very strange

honest kernel
#

I could see it

true fable
#

the best one is when i do the 4 witches meg

#

and think im so cool

honest kernel
#

Head's in the center

#

And does the more threatening moveset

true fable
#

and then meg hits 4 DC hearts

#

LMAO

gaunt fiber
#

Yeah I can see that

#

Phase 3 loses patterns right

honest kernel
#

It has a different one, depending on the heads

#

But more importantly : You can lead the head on one of the islands

#

Instead of say having to reach it in the center

#

Where he stands above lava

#

Could be a good strat for fists

gaunt fiber
#

yeah

#

it was GY tho

honest kernel
gaunt fiber
#

I'd summon last phase to end the fight

honest kernel
#

In fact, Lernie tends to headslam more often at the end

#

So megging there to prevent that makes sense to me

gaunt fiber
#

without skewer

#

for sure

#

but without skewer you lose 🙂

honest kernel
#

Why you gotta be like that, Guan-Yu

gaunt fiber
#

I think it's only true for high high heat

honest kernel
#

Or for speed in general

gaunt fiber
#

yeah

honest kernel
#

Weapon wasn't made with that in mind

gaunt fiber
#

But even

#

skewer is slow

#

I mean it's fast but it's too slow

#

Serrated is faster but good luck mate

honest kernel
#

Suffers from the base spear special syndrome

#

Mediocre damage with a high lag at the end

gaunt fiber
#

It kills bosses really well

#

rooms are the problem

#

but you lag at the end you mention

#

is the n1 reason I die

honest kernel
#

The ammount of times I burned a Stubborn Defiance because I casted of all things

#

is too high

#

Meanwhile a shield slam would have just done fine lol

#

It matters a lot more than people think

gaunt fiber
#

small details that let you take a 40 dmg hit oh you're dead

honest kernel
#

This is why Dashing, and Divine dash to an extent, are so good

#

They are instant means of defense

#

Divine Dash makes more actions defensive, like dash-attacks on sword and fists

true fable
#

its hard to make GY go fast i think

honest kernel
#

^

shy gulch
#

getting divine dash with ap2 is top 1 feelings in the world

gaunt fiber
#

It's really hard

true fable
#

i tried

#

you saw me lol

gaunt fiber
#

you can speedrun anyheat for sure

true fable
#

croven i saw

honest kernel
#

When it's most optimal build is Merciful End, and it doesn't have too many fast attacks, you know it's screwed up

true fable
#

it was incredible

gaunt fiber
#

sad but true

true fable
#

shoutout to merciful end zag bow

shy gulch
#

yeah when I got that with hyper sprint I was starting to feel the run

gaunt fiber
#

It actually disgusts me that ME is optimal

shy gulch
#

merciful end zag bow wtf

honest kernel
#

on GY?

gaunt fiber
#

yeah

#

GY speedruns

honest kernel
#

TIL

shy gulch
#

damn that’s rough

true fable
#

this fellas brain is so big

honest kernel
#

You'd think something like Deadly Reversal or Heart Rend would be best

#

Nope

true fable
#

he had tidal dash

#

sold the dash after he found ME

honest kernel
#

The Cursed build instead is optimal

gaunt fiber
#

so sad

#

Why am I playing this aspect again

true fable
#

The Cursed Build TM

gaunt fiber
#

I don't remember

honest kernel
#

masochism?

gaunt fiber
#

Idk

#

I love the feeling of dash strike, dps rotation, weaving dash strike

#

Perfectly timed spins

honest kernel
gaunt fiber
#

And killing furies with a charged skewer crit

#

Impaling them

#

it's good

honest kernel
#

ok furry hater

gaunt fiber
#

Nah

unreal pasture
#

lol I love the translation

gaunt fiber
#

I mean their death animation perfectly matches a GY special kill

true fable
#

yeah it's great

#

he's very nice

#

yall i've peaked

gaunt fiber
#

DAMN

honest kernel
#

Pog

#

Your skills transcend the language barrier

gaunt fiber
#

When you're the master of someone you can't read the name

true fable
#

i think he's left similar comments on tails vods too

gaunt fiber
#

you know you're good

honest kernel
#

Haven't had a comment like that yet lol

#

But I'm somewhat new to the high heat grind, or for anything video related in general

#

soooo

gaunt fiber
#

because Zeus looks like "Brr go spin brr"

rain sedge
#

damn the korean player is so nice

true fable
#

maybe he doesnt like zeus shield 😛

rain sedge
#

I'm gonna ping some korean friends to translate his name

honest kernel
#

Thank you for watching my broadcast.
You don't know that I am your disciple.
Watching your video and practicing Zeus. have a nice day

rain sedge
#

feels kinda weird refering to him as the "korean nemesis player"

gaunt fiber
#

Also watching your Zeus is mesmerizing

rain sedge
#

yea baj is scarily good at shielding

gaunt fiber
#

And I'm here stuck with that aspect

honest kernel
#

Some of these are pure reactions

#

And sometimes I wonder how I even saw the threat to begin with

true fable
#

woah

honest kernel
#

Since I'm focused on everything at once

shy gulch
#

yo that guy is so nice wtf

true fable
#

he did 50 heat beowulf too

shy gulch
#

bright you truly have won life now

honest kernel
#

yeah he is very wholesome

true fable
#

just hasnt submitted

shy gulch
#

oh dang

true fable
#

stygian dio beowulf

honest kernel
#

Beo players starting to rise up

shy gulch
#

wait did u do 50 heat beo, bright?

honest kernel
#

Gonna have to carry the Zeus shield flag myself lol

true fable
#

oh looks like UHDH on the src leaderboard is also korean

#

nah i havent yet haha

shy gulch
#

that sounds like something I want to watch if there’s a vid of someone doing it

gaunt fiber
#

You carry it so high it's enough mate

shy gulch
#

ah ok

rain sedge
true fable
#

yeah you dont need to prove zeus shield's viability anymore lol

rain sedge
#

I think he has a video on it on the spreadsheet?

shy gulch
#

oh right forgot that existed

vital grove
#

Alright, got the 32 Pos

shy gulch
#

I’ll look at it, thanks

honest kernel
#

nice

shy gulch
#

grats!

honest kernel
#

It's strange

vital grove
#

Turns out Lc4 and stubborn was good

honest kernel
#

There's so much more I can improve

rain sedge
#

take whatever motivation you need to dethrone tail tbh

true fable
#

looks like he's doing 50 heat all aspects lmao

shy gulch
#

I can finally move off the “screen only” page lol

vital grove
#

Got Patty too

true fable
#

nice job phoenix

#

honest kernel
#

I don't know how to function without SD anymore

gaunt fiber
#

the game remains the same

#

don't get hit

vital grove
#

Only missing fist 32

gaunt fiber
#

don't swim in lava

honest kernel
#

Don't be link and destroy ⚱️ s nilly willy

#

but i like swimming in lava

#

the only good thing i see coming out of HS

#

is having the ability to off yourself faster

gaunt fiber
#

yeah

#

Did you know

#

GY mirrorless ends in one spike trap

true fable
#

HS being good for suicide is huge for 32 heat

honest kernel
#

i am not a masochist

rain sedge
true fable
#

makes it more bearable than grinding anyheat

#

KEK

rain sedge
#

otherwise, zag fist with lambent plume

gaunt fiber
honest kernel
#

how much hp do you even have with GY mirrorless

gaunt fiber
#

25

true fable
#

25 starting

honest kernel
#

25

true fable
#

LOL

honest kernel
#

Good luck

gaunt fiber
#

How did I achieve that lmao

shy gulch
#

yeah that’s

#

pain

honest kernel
gaunt fiber
#

oh yeah, charged skewer is broken

gaunt fiber
#

feelsgoodman

rain sedge
#

dont forget a weirdchamp

gaunt fiber
#

yeah thanks man

honest kernel
#

How many of these are from Nyaa

gaunt fiber
#

none

#

actually

honest kernel
#

... Surprising

gaunt fiber
#

Nyaanyaa only motivates me

rain sedge
#

I think I contributed to a decent bit

gaunt fiber
#

and I'm not kidding

honest kernel
#

Nyaa does it in the FGC trashtalk way

gaunt fiber
#

but she would never call me like that

honest kernel
#

So there's that

gaunt fiber
#

yeah

#

and I got a ton of advice too

true fable
#

he's doing a 50 heat chaos now

#

just for kicks

#

i forgot he's also kbm

gaunt fiber
#

Does kbm makes you good

honest kernel
#

no

gaunt fiber
#

nice

honest kernel
#

i wish

true fable
#

with DDs??

gaunt fiber
#

I think he will block not to die

honest kernel
#

And there goes one already

#

What

true fable
#

OH NVM

#

it was a mistake lmao

#

weve all been there

gaunt fiber
#

yeah

honest kernel
#

Did he step on a trap or hit a bad BP room or something

true fable
#

baj especially

#

trap

shy gulch
#

can confirm kbm does not make u good sadly

honest kernel
#

Fair enough

#

*kb u mean

gaunt fiber
shy gulch
#

oop u right

gaunt fiber
#

You have my utter respect

shy gulch
#

thank u

#

I try

rain sedge
#

does he stream on twitch?

gaunt fiber
#

for what it's worth lol

honest kernel
#

twitch and yt

gaunt fiber
#

yt iirc

#

both pog

rain sedge
#

the korean player I mean

#

can you link

honest kernel
#

I'll dm it

rain sedge
#

huh, dio special

honest kernel
#

It's ok too

#

You tend to burst it anyways

true fable
#

he took dio attack last time

#

i think both are fine

honest kernel
#

Dio attack over special ?

#

He probably just wanted Dio special

true fable
#

yeah probably

#

special has very high base damage

#

yeah he gets 5 stacks on a shotgun anyway

honest kernel
#

It mostly just works well with the rhythm that Chaos Shield does

true fable
#

pretty big

honest kernel
#

Bullrush -> Special

gaunt fiber
#

Korean guy saying my name more accurately than english people

#

feels ok

honest kernel
#

By the time you special again, the Hanghover ticks

true fable
#

do i say it wrong

rain sedge
#

interesting, the numbers in the korean localisation is different than the english one

gaunt fiber
#

No yours is perfect

true fable
#

i usually try my best to say astaos weirdchamp

rain sedge
#

astoas?

true fable
#

sometimes the weirdchamp doesnt come out

gaunt fiber
#

lmao

rain sedge
#

he said astoas no?

honest kernel
#

Astao, or something like that

gaunt fiber
#

which is close

rain sedge
#

oh my god this guy does not care about that chaos curse

honest kernel
#

Hey I do that often

#

With SD you don't care in Tartarus

rain sedge
#

like zero Fs given

#

idk man I do

gaunt fiber
#

it's strange

true fable
#

nah just dont lose the stubborn until end of the room

#

ez

gaunt fiber
#

but I'm glad he got hit

honest kernel
#

And there he goes

#

lmao

rain sedge
#

ok he cares now

true fable
#

NVM

#

LMAO

rain sedge
#

I was like this guy has such big balls

#

lost SD and still playing that aggressively

honest kernel
#

Well with Chaos you kinda still need to attack

#

For the bullrush

#

So that's 2 procs each time you want to use the full special

#

With Zeus shield, you can just screw around with the special if you need to survive

rain sedge
#

two plates o.O

gaunt fiber
#

two tries I think?

rain sedge
#

this guy is so adorabel

honest kernel
#

What I like about that lad is his sheer efficiency

#

When it comes to navigating the UIs and stuff

#

In-game and out

gaunt fiber
#

kbm gods

rain sedge
#

this guy is so good

#

he doesnt know about the reload + special trick

#

someone tell him

gaunt fiber
#

oops he translating

#

rip

true fable
#

he's translating me bullying astaos LMAO

rain sedge
#

LFDMAOFA\

gaunt fiber
#

that's incredible

honest kernel
#

Why

rain sedge
#

I cant lol

honest kernel
#

bruh

gaunt fiber
#

I'm just dead

honest kernel
#

Why did y'all do this

true fable
#

what is an astaos anyway

gaunt fiber
#

Nice he got it

#

I'm so glad

rain sedge
#

he's laughing at you pepelaugh

true fable
#

LOL

gaunt fiber
#

Yeah basically

honest kernel
#

Some things never change

gaunt fiber
#

One more bully

honest kernel
gaunt fiber
#

will it stop

honest kernel
#

pain makes you stronger

gaunt fiber
#

If I suddenly change aspect and grind for 58 or something

true fable
#

yeah his definition of boonless is different from ours

honest kernel
#

That would be quite the arc

true fable
#

his special usage is incredible

honest kernel
gaunt fiber
#

I think I'm able to learn tho

true fable
#

hes saving so much time with targeting sys placement

rain sedge
#

how good is that guy

honest kernel
#

Not to mention he's crazy accurate with Hestia, on KBM, without an aim assist of any kind

rain sedge
#

oh my god

#

thats one of the smoothest furies I've seen

#

what's his "boonless"?

gaunt fiber
#

shackle into whatever

#

if he gets attack he uses it

#

but he would sell it

honest kernel
#

I saw that

gaunt fiber
#

me too

daring hedge
#

lmao

honest kernel
true fable
#

its ok

daring hedge
#

had the wrong link from a thing i was joking abt with a friend one sec

true fable
#

daring hedge
#

had to redo zag bow

honest kernel
#

Very nice

true fable
#

daring hedge
#

true fable
#

daring hedge
#

wherre

#

true fable
#

i sent u link

gaunt fiber
#

Hades3234 twitch

honest kernel
#

Hades3234, the Korean 50 heat player, is streaming

gaunt fiber
#

You can get bullied LIVE

honest kernel
#

And we are basically doing an English chat here

daring hedge
#

impossible for him to bully me he's nice

honest kernel
#

Of that stream

gaunt fiber
vital grove
#

Ooh

rain sedge
#

watching him stream makes me feel inadequate as a rail player lol

true fable
#

he's very nice

#

like everyone else he only bullies astaos

honest kernel
#

Like legit

#

He's so clean with Hestia

daring hedge
#

hades3234 versus crepes hestia fight

honest kernel
#

I'd watch it

rain sedge
#

why do people meg at lernie?

gaunt fiber
rain sedge
#

he likes you tail ❤️

vital grove
#

Did he miss that meg

gaunt fiber
#

yeah

rain sedge
#

he did but it's like

daring hedge
#

awww

rain sedge
#

idk why people do it

honest kernel
#

Either a panic meg

rain sedge
#

at the final phase it's a 5s time save if even

honest kernel
#

Or like the 5th one you do

rain sedge
#

I only do it if I'm gonna die

gaunt fiber
#

wow

honest kernel
#

yo he a fanboy

true fable
#

yeah you dont meg until the invuln goes down

#

you dont gain any time

honest kernel
#

This is actually super wholesome

gaunt fiber
#

oh actually he did not bully me

#

"you're just a guy" was for the name, not for me

true fable
#

ah ok

#

disappointing

daring hedge
#

this pace is wild he actually could beat my time

rain sedge
#

wait did he just miss an attack with seeking fire

gaunt fiber
#

he thought astaos was a word

rain sedge
#

is that possible

true fable
#

yeah seems like hes a big fan

#

also its possible

#

but hestia is also pretty slow in styx right

honest kernel
#

A bit slower, but not by too much

true fable
#

hmm

honest kernel
#

Styx's the bottleneck

true fable
#

i dont know things about the 50 heat speed meta

gaunt fiber
#

and kinda boonless

rain sedge
#

he's dead here I beklieve

honest kernel
#

That's a super scary BP room

rain sedge
#

speeder attack archers

gaunt fiber
#

kills me often

rain sedge
#

or not

honest kernel
#

#SureFootingSavingLives

gaunt fiber
#

yeah so no one knows how to deal with flamewheelers

true fable
#

the targeting sys value is insane

#

forreal

rain sedge
#

this motivates me to buy PC so I can play with KBM

#

I dont even know how it feels to be able to control where your special goes lol

gaunt fiber
#

yeah must be hard for a rail player

daring hedge
#

him and crepes are really good at actually using hestia's whole kit

#

i'd just spam empowereds

rain sedge
#

it's only hard for eris

#

since you have to chase the special

#

and it automatically lands on an enemy

gaunt fiber
#

yup spam empower is my gameplay too

true fable
honest kernel
#

I mix in the special

#

But it's often wasted so lol

true fable
#

i def try to

#

im just not all that good at it

daring hedge
#

these elysium rooms have not been great for him

rain sedge
#

uh oh

daring hedge
#

slowed pace to a crawl

gaunt fiber
#

some runs are not for you

honest kernel
#

I might have underestimated Elysium here for Hestia

daring hedge
#

same

honest kernel
#

Zeus shield, I can at 'least group up the swordsmen, spearmen, and big chariots

#

And hit them all at the same time

rain sedge
#

oooh that targetting system placement is so good

true fable
#

i was gonna say he lost a considerable amount of time in elysium

#

crepes also hates elysium with a passion iirc

gaunt fiber
#

3250?

#

oh he special'd

rain sedge
#

targetting system amplifies damage from companion

honest kernel
#

Actually something I could test

#

if I get Ferocious Guard

#

Ohwait it has to be enemy takes more damage

#

Instead of global damage

gaunt fiber
#

yeah

honest kernel
#

Shield has nothing like that

#

soooo

gaunt fiber
#

just go aphro for sweet surrender

honest kernel
#

Aphrodite Sweet Surrender or bust lol

gaunt fiber
#

lol

true fable
#

"i want to meet patroclus but he is not here"

daring hedge
#

god me too re: patroclus

true fable
#

one of us

#

one of us

gaunt fiber
#

So I'm not the only one missclicking

#

at shops sometimes

honest kernel
#

Nope

rain sedge
#

he bought a boon?

gaunt fiber
#

yeah he meant to buy the heart

rain sedge
#

I thought boonless

#

oh lol

#

and he got the best boon for hestia

honest kernel
#

I'm stealing that room tech

#

That positionning is brilliant

daring hedge
#

i always think any heat speedrunners are incredibly accurate irt dashing up to what they want and getting the right thing without adjusting, and then hermes cup happens and they talk to charon

shy gulch
#

late but hestia does actually have a special

gaunt fiber
#

lol

rain sedge
#

I missed that meg technology

#

what did he do?

shy gulch
#

I usually use it when reloading but I’m not honestly sure how much it helps

honest kernel
#

BRIGHT

#

PLEASE

gaunt fiber
#

I know him

#

pog

honest kernel
#

HE MISSED A MEG EARLIER

true fable
#

he waited for satyr to lunge before megging both

daring hedge
#

doesn't everyone do that

true fable
#

do they

rain sedge
#

no

honest kernel
#

I just yolo it

rain sedge
#

I can only meg 1

#

lo.

true fable
#

LOL

daring hedge
#

i wait for the lunge

rain sedge
#

but I'm kinda bad

honest kernel
#

But I should be aiming for it

shy gulch
#

yeah I just yolo

true fable
#

we are finding out that tailesque is a better player than most

#

more at 7

shy gulch
#

lol

rain sedge
#

surprisedpikachu.jpg

shy gulch
#

who could’ve guessed

gaunt fiber
#

I antos

#

...

true fable
#

astaos weirdchamp

shy gulch
#

does antos require aiming

true fable
#

no

shy gulch
#

I’ve never used him

daring hedge
#

OOF this styx luck

shy gulch
#

oh??

gaunt fiber
#

No...

honest kernel
#

Bruh

gaunt fiber
#

I mean it's like aiming with a shotgun

#

at point blank range

honest kernel
#

The Heroes ? Extreme Measures 3 Heroes is a legitimate hard fight to get down at first

shy gulch
#

I still haven’t gotten it down

true fable
#

yeah i still dont have the fight completely down

shy gulch
#

it’s tough

true fable
#

same as when you're first clearing though

#

i think go after bull first

#

theseus will do his own thing

honest kernel
#

^

shy gulch
#

yeah I try to get rid of asterius and avoid theseus

honest kernel
#

Something like that

#

asterius charges kill me a lot

true fable
#

go after theseus when bull spins

shy gulch
#

bull is the much more dangerous one of the two

rain sedge
#

"get out of my room" pepelaugh

shy gulch
#

his charges are pure pain

daring hedge
#

astaos lmao

gaunt fiber
#

haha

rain sedge
#

astaos stop

honest kernel
#

at 'least it's not EM4 lol

#

Gonna cut it close

#

...

#

At this rate, not sure anymore

true fable
#

hes quite good at aiming the dash strikes

rain sedge
#

he got this, this fight is 1 min per phase

#

it's CP0

gaunt fiber
#

that sweep hit actually

true fable
#

is he using fiery?

#

that's gonna get a solid ??? rating from me

rain sedge
#

I think so

#

he hasnt been backstabbing this run

honest kernel
#

Ohhh

#

WOAH

rain sedge
#

or maybe I misread the korean text

#

oh damn

#

that's

#

noooooo

honest kernel
#

So close

#

That's a heart breaker

rain sedge
#

that laser greed

#

famous guys Pog

daring hedge
#

omg i'm making him nervous

rain sedge
#

@daring hedge @honest kernel

gaunt fiber
#

yeah he said that earlier too

#

Tailesque

#

when you said hi

rain sedge
#

I'm supposed to be at work so I'll go back to it

#

gl have fun y'all

vital grove
#

Did he die?

honest kernel
#

He did

vital grove
#

Wasn't watching

rain sedge
#

yeah he greeded the laser

vital grove
#

Aww

honest kernel
#

Got laser'ed

#

It was so close too

rain sedge
#

wanted to go to the middle, took 2x40 laser ticks

gaunt fiber
#

and then super fast skull hit

true fable
#

nah i think he got long distance lasered

#

that looked like a max range laser

gaunt fiber
#

really?

honest kernel
#

Was a 40 damage hit

#

So likely another laser

#

yeah the last hit was an offscreen laser

true fable
#

weird

#

you can usually see the startup a little more clearly on zag

gaunt fiber
#

skull is not 40 too?

honest kernel
#

Might be that, or 50

#

Don't recall which

gaunt fiber
#

I saw an offscreen thing

#

maybe some green

honest kernel
#

It's that or the spear stab

#

That I get hit by

#

And they both are around that value

#

Altho nowadays I'm better at blocking them, in EM4

#

It's mostly the urns and adds that damage me

#

Or nerves

true fable
#

blocking

gaunt fiber
#

^

true fable
#

can sometimes be inconsistent

#

idk

daring hedge
#

EM4 rattles my nerves like nothing else really

true fable
#

like sometimes his spins will clip the edge of my shield

honest kernel
#

Blocking's inconsistent with big sweep arcs

true fable
#

yee

honest kernel
#

Think Asterius and Elysium swordmen

true fable
#

right

honest kernel
#

You can block and get hit at the same time

#

If you are slightly behind them

true fable
#

its pretty tilting

honest kernel
#

It's like they put two hitboxes together or something for the cleaves lmao

#

And you block both at the same time

#

But at the wrong angle ... you only block one of the hits

#

And get hit at the same time

daring hedge
#

does blocking meg's radial whip attack still send you flying across the room

honest kernel
#

Yup

daring hedge
#

good

honest kernel
#

I usually Bullrush it nowadays

#

Same with Tisiphone's 3-hit combo

gaunt fiber
#

The only times I tried to block, it was some AOE and I took the dmg anyway

honest kernel
#

The finisher does knockback

#

if I'm not sure about a block angle, I do a quick bullrush

#

Since I-frames > Block

#

You get them for the entire Bullrush

true fable
#

she also still glitches out sometimes

gaunt fiber
true fable
#

@daring hedge hows the drive sitch

#

also does a new pc mean a tailesque strim

daring hedge
#

still the same so far but i'll prob sort something out around xmas

#

and yeah i'd love to stream when i feel less wary about my drive acting up

true fable
#

fantastic

#

people will give u $ im sure of it

#

bezos bucks

honest kernel
gaunt fiber
#

Holy

#

damn that's awesome

honest kernel
#

When in doubt, Bullrush away

#

It's a legit strat, even for the EM4 laser

gaunt fiber
#

I have a strat like this one

honest kernel
#

I survived situations I should have died in otherwise because of that

gaunt fiber
#

but it implies poseidon aid

true fable
#

oh that pretty sick

gaunt fiber
#

"when in doubt, poseidon call away"

true fable
#

i think ive done that sometimes but am always unsure of the i-frame duration

honest kernel
#

That one was basically me going "Oh snap he actually went behind me I need to get away NOW"

true fable
#

this looks extremely generous

honest kernel
#

The entire Bullrush

#

Wasn't kidding when I said that

gaunt fiber
#

It's so strong

#

Ok I'm a Zeus player

honest kernel
#

Oh boi

gaunt fiber
#

(actually idk yet)

#

Stuff to finish with GY and I'll see then

true fable
#

i might try some zeus in a sec

#

seems like a pretty decent aspect

daring hedge
#

wait why did i have abyssal blood active for that zag bow run what

#

whoops

true fable
#

i meant to ask you about that

#

LOL

shy gulch
#

lmao

true fable
#

i thought it was some big brain tailesque strat

daring hedge
#

i think i was leveling up some mirror flips with darkness and accidentally didn't switch that one back

honest kernel
#

"Woops"

true fable
#

i always assume you do these things on purpose

honest kernel
#

Imagine if that's the meta we didn't bother playing around with

true fable
#

first it was infernal soul

#

now it's abyssal blood

gaunt fiber
#

I tried abyssal, don't like it at all

honest kernel
#

Need to play around more with it

true fable
#

i dont think you can afford to

#

well

honest kernel
#

Assuming I don't have RI all the way to 3 lol

true fable
#

you're an RI3 gamer

#

LOL

daring hedge
#

i didn't notice any difference during that run really in terms of them being slower, hence me forgetting i had it on at all

honest kernel
#

The damage Reduction's what interesting me more than anything

true fable
#

but yeah if you're running RI2 i think youd notice if your special did less dam

honest kernel
#

I likely would

#

lmao

#

I'm at a point where I can tell my damage output in the Lernie fight

#

Based on how fast I phase him

daring hedge
#

hmm neat, after weak and abyssal blood hades' spear thrust did 29 damage

#

at HL5 ofc

honest kernel
#

That's huge

#

Altho damage reduction being multiplicative makes it a bit less attractive

#

But as a splash, maybe ?

true fable
#

what do i name my channel points lol

gaunt fiber
#

Hmm

#

Coward points

true fable
#

also gonna have another 40 heat GY redeemable for 100K i think

#

LOL

gaunt fiber
#

100k for GY really

true fable
#

or no

honest kernel
#

^ That's actually important

#

Because of the sturdy

#

It's another 30%

daring hedge
#

wait sturdy is

#

WHAT

#

I NEVER KNEW THIS

honest kernel
#

I recall it being like that, not 100% sure

#

Actually let me check rn

daring hedge
#

i thought all it was, was no flinching

honest kernel
#

Used to be that at one point I think ?

#

Not 100% sure

true fable
#

no it's huge DR lol

#

sturdy is incredible

daring hedge
#

does the tooltip ingame mention this?

true fable
#

yeah 30% DR

#

lol

honest kernel
#

Yup

true fable
#

sir

#

you have the heat WR

#

there is a certain level of expectation

daring hedge
#

i thought sturdy wasn't good i can't believe this

true fable
#

LMFAO

#

are you serious

honest kernel
#

But eh

true fable
#

never

daring hedge
#

yeah at some point in early access for some reason in my head i registered sturdy as just flinch resistance and nothing else

#

no idea if that ever was how it was back then, but still

#

wild

true fable
#

so you just thought it was a worse unshakeable mettle

honest kernel
#

^

true fable
#

when in reality

daring hedge
#

yes lol

true fable
#

it is a better unshakeable mettle

honest kernel
#

I think the duo was introduced first, before Sturdy

#

So that'd make sense

true fable
#

if mettle were a larger % reduction itd make sense

#

but as it is it's just perma sturdy with less upside

honest kernel
#

DR for bosses only

true fable
#

yeah

honest kernel
#

And it barely matches a rare Bronze Skin

#

lol

daring hedge
#

love to pom bronze skin to get 1.8% more damage reduction

honest kernel
#

Like, why is it so little

daring hedge
#

yeah it's so funny

honest kernel
#

When Different League, Positive Outlook, are pommable for like double that

daring hedge
#

like it does nothing from there

true fable
#

enough about those

#

let's talk about why you can pom frozen touch

#

just

#

why

daring hedge
#

ew

true fable
#

also per ello theres a pretty funny use for peer pressure

#

apparently if the hangover stack is the only stack on the enemy

honest kernel
#

Is that with Rib

gaunt fiber
#

Sturdy has more than flinch res?

honest kernel
#

oh

true fable
#

they take 8x the damage mentioned on the tooltip

daring hedge
#

thank you astaos

honest kernel
#

Yeah

true fable
#

so if peer pressure says 4 they take 32 per tick

daring hedge
#

oh yeah i watched that hangover testing stream

#

extremely weird

gaunt fiber
#

Damn

true fable
#

yeah it's super strange

honest kernel
#

Like

#

what

#

Sounds like a mega bug

true fable
#

you just punch one enemy once with drunk strike

daring hedge
#

yeah it's broken

true fable
#

then hide in the corner

cinder cave
daring hedge
#

lmao

cinder cave
daring hedge
#

i will never live this down

honest kernel
#

It's almost as if we weren't all living encyclopedias for an indie game

cinder cave
#

I mean

#

that's why I'm called Codex right

daring hedge
#

we're pretty close though

cinder cave
#

to usher the noobs through

#

on that note I still think it'd be worth cataloguing all the "high heat paraphrased Codex" entries

daring hedge
cinder cave
#

for posterity

honest kernel
#

awww

#

That's so wholesome

#

I think this community needs more of it

#

For high heat, that is

cinder cave
#

Honestly

#

let's just gift Hades to someone who will love it this christmas

#

then shove this discord invite down their throats :devil:

true fable
#

thats what i did

honest kernel
#

Yeah that won't be in my family's proximity

true fable
#

one of my irl friends is just unlocking all aspects before climbing heat

honest kernel
#

They either play shooters or whatever popular game they come accross on Facebook or whatever

#

And I don't have many acquaintances, let alone friends.

true fable
#

you have friends they just all play hades squirtyay

honest kernel
#

If I'm being real here, I consider y'all acquaintances

#

And nothing more

true fable
#

people find games on facebook?

gaunt fiber
#

I have friends that play Hades but they stop too early

honest kernel
#

Adds are a thing

#

Yeah

cinder cave
honest kernel
#

^ Oh it's still very popular

true fable
#

i have one because its the thing to do

#

but i dont really use it

cinder cave
#

xd fair i barely use it now

true fable
#

other than to steal memes

gaunt fiber
#

"it's the thing to do"

#

Hm

true fable
#

im told thats the case

cinder cave
#

I guess older people still use it? I know students were basically avoiding Facebook like the plague

#

cuz their parents are all on it

honest kernel
#

When your classmates literally don't want to use anything else then Facebook, you're bound to create an account

#

I don't even use it

#

But it's there, when peeps don't want to use anything else for communication

cinder cave
#

I stopped using it because it was making my mental health worse

#

stupid social media xd

true fable
#

yeah most of my social media is just for stealing memes now

#

its not for actual comms

#

if i want to find out how my friends are doing

#

i ask them

gaunt fiber
cinder cave
gaunt fiber
#

Works

true fable
#

oof

true fable
honest kernel
#

nowadays I use programs made for this kind of communication

true fable
#

i hate whatsapp

honest kernel
#

like Teams and stuff

cinder cave
#

I don't mind whatsapp, only that facebook bought them out too

#

Tbf, my experiences growing up has made me sceptical of all AAA companies by default. Indie games 4 life

honest kernel
#

facebook is like a must have where i am

gaunt fiber
honest kernel
#

cause everyone's on it

true fable
#

ive just been forced onto it

honest kernel
#

and you basically use messenger to communicate

gaunt fiber
#

It's like social media but it's not

honest kernel
#

instead of texting or whatever else

gaunt fiber
#

That's why it's good

true fable
#

hmmmmmm

cinder cave
#

I'm inclined to agree with that assessment

#

Social media is toxic cuz it encourages you to sit staring at news feeds

#

that are tailored to show off their stupidly refined and curated version of themselves

#

which can only make you more annoyed

true fable
#

that is why

honest kernel
#

i only see memes

#

Social media normalizes what are highlights. That isn't healthy in the long term for most, if not everyone

true fable
#

i think linkedin is the most distilled version of a social media

#

it is social media at its purest

gaunt fiber
#

Only have WhatsApp

true fable
#

its so funny

honest kernel
#

Gonna have to mess around more with LinkedIn

#

For professional purposes

true fable
#

linkedin has never pretended to be genuine

daring hedge
#

ah yes social capital dot com

gaunt fiber
#

Oh I guess I have LinkedIn too

true fable
#

exactly

gaunt fiber
#

Useless

true fable
#

i love the inspirational posts

gaunt fiber
#

If you don't use it like I do

honest kernel
#

linkedin has posts?

true fable
#

yeah there are people who write whole essays on linkedin it's wild

honest kernel
#

If it's anything like what I write here, oh boi

#

the weirdest for me will always be imgur

#

people hang out there for some reason

gaunt fiber
#

"Today an applicant was thirsty, so I asked if they wanted some water. " "Wow you're so human"

#

This LinkedIn

honest kernel
#

...

#

What

true fable
#

LOL

#

thats exactly what i mean

honest kernel
#

Is it advanced ass-licking or what

true fable
#

please say sike though

gaunt fiber
#

That's it

true fable
#

yeah that sounds about right baj

gaunt fiber
#

And self satisfaction about being just a decent mannered people

#

Disgusting

rain sedge
#

I'm gonna cry in the corner there if that's ok

gaunt fiber
#

We're messages in a channel dude

rain sedge
#

you're messages in a channel

true fable
#

i am green name

rain sedge
gaunt fiber
#

You could not know if I even exist

true fable
#

astaos isnt real he cant hurt you

gaunt fiber
#

Lmao

rain sedge
honest kernel
#

Even saying that is a lot lmao

#

Don't know any of you IRL

rain sedge
#

also yeah, linkedin is so sycophantic it's nauseating

honest kernel
#

Same for the reverse

true fable
#

yeah that's fair

#

idk

rain sedge
#

the time I had to use linkedin to find a job made me feel filthy

true fable
#

i dont have a high bar for friendship

gaunt fiber
#

Nice

#

Let's be friends

true fable
#

pogu

rain sedge
#

pogU

#

also people's usage of facebook depends largely on their geography and background, like most people I know only use it for messenger

#

I've barely seen people posting anything that's not memes

true fable
#

yeah i use it purely for a messenger GC i have with two buddies from college

gaunt fiber
#

This is the only reason I could use social media

rain sedge
#

also if you wanna use social media you gotta be smart about it so it's not toxic

gaunt fiber
#

No smart no media

rain sedge
#

instagram? if you follow e-girls or influencers, you gonna have a bad time

#

following cute comics, dogs, and views and arts? that's cool

#

I remember when Nyaanyaa was like "off topic"

true fable

Sleep schedule also went on a break

true fable

I'd like to

rain sedge

honest kernel
#

8:17 AM here

gaunt fiber
#

9 am

rain sedge
#

WTF

honest kernel
#

Yup

rain sedge
#

it's too late baj

honest kernel
#

timezones are a lie

rain sedge
#

just stay up until 10 and reset schedule

gaunt fiber
#

And 5 am too

honest kernel
#

Not sure if I have enough energy for that

#

Is the problem

rain sedge
#

nah that's how you reset the sleep schedule

gaunt fiber
#

He's right

honest kernel
#

I'm awaaaare

gaunt fiber

Oh Nyaanyaa is here, american people are waking up

Game: "Good day . . . or night."

honest kernel

"According to this sundial, it's 8:20 AM"

rain sedge
#

iT's 7:48 🤪

#

I'm slightly mad it's not showing the real time

honest kernel
#

"But it also said that a while ago, HELP"

rain sedge
#

because us switch players only got the sundial last week

#

I was quite excited tbh

gaunt fiber
#

Lol

rain sedge
#

it's ok, I got the new skull earring and shackle

#

very happy with that

gaunt fiber
#

PC transition when

rain sedge
#

honestly? probably this week

#

seeing how rail is played on PC by the korean guy motivates me

gaunt fiber
#

No, I don't like when people are honest

rain sedge
#

I've lined up some projects like eris 56, and a few more aspects at 40

gaunt fiber

What time do you expect a sundial to show underground where there's no sun?
