also since my friend is already gone for christmas and I missed the window to borrow her PS4 to play crash 4
nah, I don't play GY exclusively, I escape all the time
Addiction's too strong
Hey

I escape a lot lately
Oh wait are we talking about winning in the game
Or like, escaping this game's community
Yeah ok
Success rate low anyway
I'm just ticking "daily astaos bully" off my todo, don't mind me
I mean the reason I play this game is because of this channel
community's nice
the actual things I can do in the game is already finished a long time ago
I might parse the game audio and listen to all the conversations I've missed but that's it
Oh yeah I'm done too for all that the game itself encourages you to do myself
And honestly, I don't know where that high heat push craze came from
In fact, I was here since the "Welcome to Hell" update came around, why did it take so long ?
Was I just that busy screwing around with the different weapons/boons/updates ?
Or what
That kind of passion usually doesn't kick in after I've done something for a while, it's usually pre-set in advance
It's weird
Either way, probably will do more 59 heat attempts tomorrow.
Today I'll simply look out to do something else
I do that on Talos.
Yeah ok you went super far in the log lmao
this should not be a thing
Makes sense tho, since the Magnetic debuff gives +50% attack
Works well with crits
Also Support Fire, Mirage Shot, Hunting Blades, Crystal Clarity, Lightning Rod. Good routes from there.
So you start with Artemis attack then ?
Or is it something you pick up in Asphodel or naturally after the cast
Still undecided if Deadly Strike or Flood Shot is the better start.
Hmm
When I play fists I do Demeter
don't play with Talos often, outside of Curse of Drowning
I want to ask for any tips for getting past the hydra in asphodel but I'm just
I see yall are busy and don't want to interupt 😅
Okay- ty
If you scale down, that's super-sampling. Should look better. Need more VRAM, though.
Why does this channel always talk about me when m asleep.
You're actually reading everything
Because I exist
m so popular. 
whats a good 32 heat setup for a first time high heat run?
planning on using either chiron bow or nem sword
HL5 LC4 CF2 EM3 BP2 MM UC TD3.
aight, will try it now. thanks @mossy zinc
Stubborn Defiance.
Wut.
oh man, td3, huh. thatll be the challenge
Heat and advice btw for your first 32 #h1-high-heat-strategies message
For Chiron, start with Eternal Rose for Heartbreak Strike and pick up Deadly Flourish or Drunken Flourish in Tartarus. Then go for the respective Duo Boon.
If you can't get either in Tartarus, take the Arrowhead in Asphodel for Deadly Flourish.
DPS in Tartarus mainly comes from your Attack because enemies die so fast.
alright, just died in asphodel. its rouuuuuuuuuuugh. i love it.
td3 is making me hurry and make bad movement
This channel was so wholesome while I was sleeping 
i just realized the korean player commented the timestamp when tail appeared on the yt replay
"He appeared"
according to google translate lol
lol
man
imma have to pull an all-nighter one night and catch his stream
sounds like it was a great time
also bright and tail achieving senpai status
thank you for the pin
man it was so wholesome its inspired me to grind 40 heat EM4 all day
Putting FO1 and DC2 as "core" just seems like really bad advice at 32.
I think given that Eris/Chiron are recommended that they make sense. DC is almost irrelevant with those weapons, and FO1 is much more forgiving with ranged attacks/hitstun
DC matters quite a bit on Chiron.
DC is awful on chiron
I agree
? the DC is gone after the first hit of the first special. Is the concern that the enemy still moves through the attack shot?
or the damage loss from the attack
FO is not more forgiving on ranged aspects. It's the other way around. Melee handles enemies coming close a lot better. Ranged aspects want enemies at range not enemies that rush you down.
FO really really sucks on Arthur though, that was what drove me to turn it off
I think people are tripping thinking DC doesn't matter on Chiron. The DPS drop from losing practically all of your Attack damage on so many enemies is huge. Without DC, you can power-shoot your way through Tartarus faster than if you focus on your Special.
yeah but this is for an easy clear, not fast clears
if you're trying to clear 32 heat for the first time, you might not be perfect with power shots
the deadline though
Hot take: AP1 wasn't that bad
You don't need to be perfect.
if anything i disagree with TD3 in core

In chiron you are trying to oneshot enemies. You can't be sticking with one enemy much time I made the same mistake. While a weapon like fists dosen't have a prob with DC since you just spam your combo until you finish the enemies
with TD3, someone trying to clear 32 heat for the first time may not have cleared below 20 minutes at all, let alone under higher heat circumstances
I think that one is definitely flexible with people's playstyles/prefrenecs, so not super "core" necessarily
I pinned the post because it's been referenced several times, and because Schad did say that they were open to revision from more experienced players but none corrected the post at the time. Please feel free to ping Schad to edit the post if you think it is misleading, or provide your own revised and consensus-approved version to replace it 
They gotta step up their game for 32 either way. TD3 is just a DPS check.
Well, it is just a general suggestion
I'd say TD3 encourages a lot of damage trading when people don't have their rotations / safety down. With a more lax deadline people can play it safer by a significant margin.
Referenced like 99% by Schad I think lol.
From TD3 -> 2, I no longer felt pressured to go ham all the time and would be a lot safer during fights. Speaking as a 32 casul.
everyone knows the true way to add heat is to add one level from each thing, starting from the top, looping through until you hit your desired heat amount

under that setup, 32 heat is HL2 LC2 CF2 JS2 EM2 CP2 BP2 MM UC FO1 HS RI1 DC1 AP1 TD1
I can see TD2 being core and 3 optional. Though in my experience TD3 at 32 is just a matter of knowing the right builds for newer players.
I'll name that "the easy way of doing heat so you don't have to think"
40 heat is that + FO2 RI2 DC2 AP2 (technically 41 but we can't break the rules)
50 adds TD2 (lmao) HL3 LC3 JS3 EM3 and CP3
That's Eris.
oh... yeah that's right... my title's too big
Whoa I went to work for a bit and this happened
I did preface the message with "in my opinion", and I wrote this somewhat detailed message because I think it'll be good for people to have a bit more detailed advice 🤷♂️
been thinking of dropping td to 2 and removing FO and just putting it on others. even when i tried thme on chiron and eris, i feel like id rather risk HL or something else
although it might be just me lacking experience
also I wrote that when I'm even more of a casual than now
maybe I'll edit it and put the heats in tiers in terms of "easiest" "will be easier than others" "try this depending on your aspect and playstyle"
aaaand tidal dash no longer procs sea storm cool
Yeah, I did recommend HL5 FO0. You'll take less damage than with HL0 FO2.
I usually go with HL2/HL3 and FO1
yeah, im starting to prefer that. i should be able to dodge and kite better with ranged weapons anyway
also just for the record: I tested TD3 with all 24 aspects and it all worked, with plenty of time left too. I didn't even roll double edge for the swords
taking 3 free heat on TD3 just by optimising your game play is so much better than taking 3 extra heat from JS/CP/FO/HL that might kill you
Yeah def recommend TD3 for 32.
im gonna remove the sea storm on eris since it's a real pain to get now and not worth for 32, especially for beginners
alrighty ill just need to work on my aim then. mouse and keyboard gets rough for me when it gets frantic
the fact that you spended time and effort to try helping other players alone is admirable even if some people find it somewhat wrong ofc and everyone has their opinion like me I can't do TD3 just because my own preference in games is playing without time limits even if it seems either for most
just trying to give back to the community that taught me a lot of things, like standing in the middle during dad laser and what starfox is
we have a very different playstyle on bow, and I believe beginners will use my playstyle more
DC2 on chiron is free
just replace the recommended heat with "32 heat is free, get good lol"
I think your pin should include RI4 Tempest Strike Guan Yu.
All the top Guan Yu players do it.
so just 2 of them
It's meta.
Quick spiiiiiiiiiiin
I love this one.
Aphro call carrying my poor skills
pog
until 4 sack and death
I'm happy.
@gaunt fiber git gud. 
I feel like I'm almost gud at GY
Almost.
The next best thing, but not quite me. 
Thank you. 
I changed my mind about winged serpent
It's not that bad
Especially in styx, even without quick spin
Yeah, it's just not Quick Spin or Massive Spin.
I guess I could control the bounces in rooms
might work
but it's a lot of work
This aspect is so deep
and then there's Eris
idk
Why control bounces when you can go for uncontrollable Poseidon bounces?
I've updated the 32 advice for new players, ping me if you have general advices for new players or disagree strongly with what I've said
remember it's for new players, so some things that are easy for the more experienced are hard for them
Frost spins, enemies pushed and so on
no RI4 trolls pls ❤️
@rain sedge as the Queen of Malphon, I assure you Talos shouldn't be on there.
it's 50% on PC right?
Most people have no clue how to play Talos.
is it that bad on high heat? it felt not that different than demeter when I play it
hmmm ok
Honestly
I suppose talos is just a worse demeter than most people
Yeah nvm
I cringe when I see Talos play most of the time.
It took me ages to realize it increased cast damage as well
I took it out, makes sense
probably should just funnel them to demeter instead of confusing them with 2 fist
It's good, but it's not easiest to learn.
when I did my 32 I just special --> attack for bigger mobs and let chain lightning take care of smaller mobs
am I doing it right lol
Excalibur should be on there for sure at 32 with a disclaimer to not take DC or FO.
Might make cold embrace viable?
cries in trying to complete duo prophecy and only missing duos with Demeter based on casts now
@rain sedge depends somewhat on if you cancel your Special into Dash.
Schad I love what you've done for the community, thank you - what I said were merely my opinions on what heats I found easier
I've added the DC and FO thing on there
I think those are the only 2 heats that are really variable per aspect
damn
Thanks, same here, it's just my opinion on what heats are easy
I need to do something for the community too
remember the time someone came here looking for aspect advice
and he did his first 32 with zag sword
with AP or something I think
I would just put "Meg or Antos" for companion. Familiarity ends up mattering more at high heat. A lot of people will just whiff Meg lol.
Thanatos is too slow the one time I used him
yea I dont think thanatos is good advice for 32
have added it
5 should do it
Very funny
Oh you did not read?
what thing
I was at 4, then I got witched room 2
lmao
I won the run after the cursed one ofc
cool I think that's general and informative enough for new players that come here for 32
ping me if more changes
Keepsake:
- Whatever god keepsake needed for your build in Tartarus and Asphodel, acorn/spearpoint/skelly in Elysium. Acorn in Styx, since 5 hits from Hades is more HP than what skelly/cerberus gives you.
Whatever god keepsake needed for your build in Tartarus, Owl Pendant in Asphodel if you haven't already picked it in Tartarus.
aight so savior tough louts are difficult when combined with athena trial
idk about you, but if I don't get my secondary god on tartarus I'd pick it over athena there
From Schad guide to Nyaanyaa's
but let me add the owl pendant thing
i def think if you are playing shield owl in asphodel is incorrect
DDs is never incorrect. It's just an alternate path.
you're opinionated, tell me if you have opinions on the newly pinend advice
I would not recommend Aphrodite/Demeter
I'm keeping that for sure
Would take time to chill everybody
it's more for bosses
Aphro let it be safe not demeter
insta 10 chill on bosses give you so much more leeway
Yeah I guess it's good for bosses
it's more of a "last resort if you really struggle"
Yeah
Low damage too
when I started, chill on chiron was godsent
low damage is longer rooms and fights
Demeter's damage is mediocre
i think its fine. looks good to me
could fish for decay and the legendary, ravenous will
I guess
we're not saying it's optimal here, it's just the last resort for new players
I'm keeping it
Yeah I'm not against lol
@honest kernel you're basically king, lmk if you got more advices you wanna put in the pin
dont want to mislead people with my casualness
Since there is no "Don't pick GY", it can't be that bad
oooooo
I could add that
"Not recommended: only psychos pick Guan Yu. Ping @gaunt fiber for more details"
We are a bunch to play GY here
The one that jumps to me straight up is TD3
It's not just that you need to be fast : At that level, if you aren't super on point, sack rng will screw you
TD2 is much more appropriate, IMO
Beginners will struggle with that but you have to get good at some point
I mean
No heat in TD, where do you put it?
TD2 as a starting point is fine
yeah the problem is the core heat is only 19, so they need 13 more
TD3 is where it gets shaky
which is why I put the "easier" in quotes
I did get 4 sacced a lot during my 32 runs, I didn't feel anything was... super bad timer wise
I think there was one sword that I didnt get double edge and it was shaky
yeah, recommended weapon is eris
I'd take TD4 for that lol
Losing to sack RNG requires less gitting gud than dealing with 3 Heat in something else.
There's also the argument to be made about Death Defiances over Stubborn Defiance
On how it can make a player play overall
I mean, if you ask whether it's easier for a new player to take 3 more HL and lose 60% of eHP compared to "if you get 4 sacced which is 1/8 time you lose" I think they pick the second one
Former's gonna make the player play safer than the latter
Maybe you should add the simple tip about suiciding to heal from SD
dunno if it's here
with FO0 its pretty manageable
It's in the second post
oh ok
I don't really get picking DDs or SD when RI4 is free heat.
definitely way harder for new players
EM4 at 32 ? nah
it's less about DD or SD, it's more about 4 heat from LC4
l,ike, I'm trying to keep the core heat small so people have flexibility, but if it's too small, they'll get confused and pick bad heat
You can have 4 Heat from LC4 and 8 Heat from RI4.
It's a good core.
Less thinking about healing or finding Patroclus, too.
More thinking about gameplay.
It frees the mind.
^
Btw I'm a Clyclops jerky select gamer now
I wish it would last more than 10 encounters to have it against dad
Hourglass new meta
would it work? since it's not technically a charon well item
I don't think so
No.
unfortunately
Just buff Jerky
Dark touch of styx is OP
lemme get that buff longer
oh god imagine
bone hourglass at elysium extends touch of styx dark
you dont even have to worry about sac anymore
(well, unless you run EM4)
Nah it would only affect jerky for balance purposes
BaLaNcE
like
have someone told amir that there's more build than those that relies on attack?
still confused why jerky only give attack bonus
"styx rooms are encounters but actually no"
Touch of Styx Dark is just I'll help you when you're dead.
Thanks, but . . . I already died.
so you're saved
Tbf, there are other well items that affect special and cast
Patty just doesn’t offer those
god imagine a patty braid
still won't make casts viable at 40+ but cool
casts are fine until 45
I'd take a Patty chimaera jerky please
beo doesnt count as cast
?
how do you figure?
and talos is good too according to nyaanyaa
i trust her talos advice
well cast is more like
my 40 was pretty free
I cast my bloodstone, pew pew it goes somewhere, I pick it up
Yeah, Talos is pretty good at 45.
beo is more like
I've almost done shackles 50 heat Demeter fists, I could see Talos being good
I put an ammunition into my portable nuclear bomb, boom it goes wherever I go
You are basically playing CS:GO but you are the one that plants the bomb
i mean i buy braids and stones, i get mirage shot, i get chaos cast buffs, i get poms
those are all staples of cast builds
And have a swat shield, somehow
... actually a more apt comparaison would be a demoknight from TF2 that uses the Pool Caber
if only this were true at 50 PepeHands
And it crits each time
yeah unlucky
I'll use it to describe beowulf next time
Don't use that one, use the demoknight one please
TF2 is dead so we should deprecate all reference to it
That one actually uses a shield and charges into stuff to nuke 'em
yeah ngl that CSGO comparison only has the bomb lol
Brain took a leap and a half for that one lol
Did you sleep?
no
NICE
That might explain why
I think this is the perfect time to do the 59 baj
It is absolutely NOT
great things happen when you don't sleep
I'm basically at the point
Where my brain's becoming a potato
That's when I usually stop playing
That's when Eris players start playing.
^
bullying
dang, i cant even get past tartarus consistently, even with eris. i have a lot of learn hahaha
I think my first 32 took me like a week.
Real talk, Eris takes some getting used to before the autopilot kicks in
It won't save you from getting hit constantly
And I don't mean "autopilot" in a bad way
idk I played it 5-6 times at low heat then one shot 32
that 5-6 times is, to most players, still a bunch
eris players know anything other than autopiloting?
I mean it's a rogue lite but I guess
what's your heat and build, I can help probably, I'm somewhat good with eris
I'm saying this because it's a risky weapon by nature, compared to say Bow, Spear or Shield
eris is risky compared to spear? damn
Going from those to Rail will take a bit of time to adjust
When starting out, I'd say yes
I don't know if everything in the room dies in 3 seconds is inherently risky.
Risky for your fun
your existence is risky to my fun
When Eris isn't like maxed, it can take some time to actually kill later rooms
HLmax LCmax EM3 BP1 MM UC FO1 TD3
zeus keepsake then get the attack asap
I don't think we're talking non-maxed aspects.
Maxed aspect, yeah sure
Do BP2 instead of FO.
HL2, DC2, and JS1 instead
DC is free on eris
it'll give you 60% more effective HP
Tbh JS3 is also free on Eris.
do zeus keepsake for attack, aim for jolted, hope for legendary
and use owl pendant in asphodel so you get divine dash
and extra DD (see pinned post)
alright, will try those. i also think i need to be better at timing the eris buff. sometimes when i special i dive str8 to an attack just for theh buff
holy crap i shouldve turned off attack at cursor all this time
Wait why turn off attack at cursor for eris?
So you can play more akin to controller
And just go guns blazing
Assuming aim assist is on
Since you don't have to re-position the cursor constantly when you dash over enemies
Can be a lot easier this way
Ah that makes sense
yeah
it helped me a ton cause i can focus on kiting. i dont play on controller cause it hurts my thumbs a lot
damnit. got to hades and clumsily dashed to a green vase
but attack at cursor off did make the difference
i feel a lot more confident taking on 32 heat now. thanks everyone 🙂
I wanna see some numbers. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12_2L5sZGreuR-1MElSpPiVK6893SIq_oXp8AelLVvco/edit?usp=drivesdk
Sheet1
Rank,Player,Time in ms,Take the test here:,https://humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime
1,Nym,145,🥇,Apparently, the test from arealme multiplies your result by 0.8 to make it appear lower, so we'll just correct the numbers here!
2
oh ima be awful
233 is within monitor error of the median though
i appreciate it but i have a 144hz monitor
same
also keep in mind that the "average" that they collect is from people who use the website. I imagine people that go to a reaction time website is going to be a little self selecting for people with good reaction times already
are we supposed to submit these
lmao
i want my rightful place at 10+ on the reaction time PR
nah
m not smart
strimmer download obs streamlabs and hit go live button
is it just for background recording?
sure
Are you accounting for age
What? No. I just wanna see response times.
No that's for the site I linked to before. The new link has accurate numbers.
Oh
Reaction time on this kind of website is kinda bs

i mean these reaction times are just fun benchmarks
they are indicative of almost nothing

Nah it's just that reaction time alone is not enough
it might give you some idea of a person's reaction time but at some point it becomes about training for the benchmark instead of improving reaction time
they are fun to do tho
Practice effect on simple response time tests is not very high.
sure but what is simple response test training? its not actively improving your skill in a game
there's something to be said for priming effect in game
i think astaos is right
but it's a fun thing to have
they are fun benchmarks but there are just too many external factors
Pin that
? priming applies whenever you do something multiple times lol
also i did
m slow
233ms
Guan Yu players move fast
Hmm
@true fable I already added you yes.
Idk aiming in OW has nothing to do with slow fps
180 is 🐢
180 is enough for 40 GY mirrorless
🐢 
How are you a bot with turtle reactions. 
cross out the people complaining about GY on your weekly SGG bingo cards
i think you two are being summoned
"try not to die" die
Mediocre healing lmao
theres ur GY quick start guide
does anyone play with controller and PC?
Yeah just 5 health bars through the run
because I'm losing the fidelity of the movement from PC, but would like to keep my mouse-special-aiming
^
"pad"?
hmmm
maybe I just need to get used to the keyboard movement
I'll hit skelly for a bit
wait astaos did u do 40 GY mirrorless?
when you're forced into an elysium hammer and it's flurry slash 
Yes sir or madam
(sir) and damn thats impressive
i might try GY mirrorless
being able to put LC4 sounds really nice
You really should
the thing with hestia is that its a super good weapon but it kinda forces certain pacts
like u absolutely cannot take DC
is this on the dedge seed
so other pacts start to get tight
Ye
Forced into hammer oof
hmm
quite hard to make the transition to PC
I need to do some stuff to get used to I I guess
Don't hesitate to check my youtube 
yeah i also like to have a universal name for all my accounts
unfortunately croven is taken on twitch so i had to add numbers 😔
it just ruins the vibe
i probably couldve thought of something else but i was lazy so
just tacked on a few numbers
Pfff, who would pick a number like that
Totally random
No Bright it crosses duo
Priority
@true fable what's the meg timing for sneak thing you mentioned?
can you link a guide or somethin
yeah
also flood flare beo feels pretty free
i died to asterius spins because im a bad player but if you want to clear 50 heat beo it seems like the way to go
idk man
the controls feel quite weird
I'm considering the controller + mouse combo but it's awkward
You can probably just use your Switch pad.
lemme check if you can do that on pc
i just wanna do 50 heat :^)
glad people are converting to flood flare beo
might just AP2 and reset for flood flare to have the big five oh
and then just do other things
stream it
No I mean just your Switch pad, not pad + mouse lol. Since you're used to your Switch controller.
this is literally that gloomer meme
"time for your daily 7 hour strim" "yes astaos"
maybe in a bit

oh
I have a controller for PC, that's not the problem
so I want the movement fidelity from the joystick, and the accuracy of special aim from the mouse
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/599449585710006288/790683743773261844/unknown.png do I just dad's keepsake? 
so you get charge relatively quickly
so if you fish for athena proud bearing
tyler im sad lol
you'd just get charged at the start always?
lmao that sounds like high heat
stream it
lol fish for a specific boon with AP2 and no rerolls.
LOL
@rain sedge you have to change your name
@abstract wraith it's on pin
name is accurate
hmm
So now

is it
you're grinding a hell save I assume
@mossy zinc ty for the big brain advice, my left hand is using the switch joycon which is small, and right is on the mouse
this is amazing
soooo... this is actually doable https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/599449585710006288/790684780994887741/unknown.png
This might be the most cursed setup
good luck
No
cool because that might be your maddest achievement yet
it's only 10 encounters
I can't differentiate between the 2 jerkies
is it possible?
I think you got this retrash
a lot of EHP from weak and damage reduction, plenty of dps from dedge and epic aphro attack
and EM4 is just a walk in the park for you
so ye
Lady Aphrodite carrying another high heat run. She's truly the best. 🥲
Ugh got speared :(
ah, the controller has the same problem the PS4 controller does, it always acts as if it holds up
hmmm problematic. I might have some solutions
Y'all need to stop posting screenshots and then die. Stay focused, don't get distracted by chat. 
you're not dead are you
They don't.
The successful runs usually come out of nowhere with no posts before that.
You better be
Mods this person is threatening to burn me. Please help.
i'll purge some Tartarus witches to quench that bloodthirst
Yes.
Depends on rarity/pom level/aspect and a bunch of things
where are you in the run
like location
mark
it'll make you go a lot faster
still mark i think
pomming deadly strike doesnt really do that much tbh
if only it pommed the crit chance, though that would be too powerful i guess
it should do that tbh
doesn't have to be much but 1-2% more crit chance would make it feel a lot better
PP pom does 1% per pom
pp is also global
i'd be fine with it if they ditched the attack boost altogether and just made the crit chance big. You could even it out so it's the same effective damage (1% crit chance is ~2% damage boost), but crits enable all the secondary artemis boons
what's the second hermes boon?
losing with guan yu is never a throw
other than the epic hyper sprint
that's either attack or special speed
what's the hammer?
charged skewer
and i just checked it's special speed form hermes
if you lose this might as well retire astaos
oof! spear 32 down. sword is all that's left... any advice on aspect/build to make this relatively painless? spear took foreeeever haha
yeah I suck too much at FO 😛 if I ever try to push past 32 heat I might try to learn it, but for now... not worth it
merciful end beowulf
Sure Footing is good.
well
Or take it to have a better chance at Unshakable Mettle or to sell it.
You might not get to sell it, though.
Oh.
Roll for DD sounds good.
Or Call maybe.
arthur 32 is "free"
but poseidon 32 is pretty free and much more fun
also got last stand though
I do prefer Poseidon, but 'free' seems like a stretch haha
like... arthur isn't fun, at ALL.
well
Excalibur is fun.
x doubt
you want to run a lodging cast on poseidon i think
poseidon 32 build will go something like
hunting blades is a mistake
Only person I've seen here who doesn't think Excalibur is fun must be Schad.
flood shot, into an artemis core (I'd take special if I can, but attack works too), so you can get mirage shot. exit wounds for SURE is priority, and take pressure point or support fire to allow you to get fully loaded
and you can just get other supporting boons like rupture, wave pounding, etc on your flood shot. 20-40% damage vs bosses is super nice
chaos boons etc as you need it
it's really good
out of the 24 aspects I played at 32, arthur must be bottom 5, even bottom 3 in terms of fun-ness
But you're an Eris main, so your opinion doesn't count. 
maybe less fun is lucifer? but I was doing soaker. gilga is definitely absolute bottom, zag spear might be bottom 2 as well
I forgot eris mains lack the masochistic tendencies of guan yu players
no. you shouldn't even be offered it
you can get it
you just cant get exit wounds with nonlodging casts
it does work
dont sell
they take the damage a fixed amt of time later
No, it's Charp.
WHAT
what's a "fixed amount of time" later
When the bloodstone dislodges.
is it the 15s of the standard dislodge time
i guess so if thats the standard dislodge time
Not retired I guess
I wanna say something mean but I think I've done the daily quota
so... good job astaos
Do it
is it cheating to buy from well with hourglass and then swap in acorn
nah i used hourglass for elysium
lmfao didn't matter
4 sack into triple bfly ball
ah well
thats the fight
Flood shot or any lodging non-Aphrodite cast? You’d start Poseidon over Artemis?
flood shot is optimal. yes poseidon over artemis
the reasoning is kinda complex, lmk if you're interested
can i know as well
nah
played sloppy
GGs maxy
mightve been possible with perfect play but i got frustrated with low dmg
breaking wave doesnt really do anything vs dad
it was gonna be hard in 1:30
well, with the cast options, here are your options
dio, ares, demeter is non-lodging
zeus doesnt consistently lodge (and therefore, make you lose exit wounds damage)
aphrodite is quite short range which can be dangerous for beginners, and have no supporting boons
athena is cool - but kinda slow, and have less good supporting boons than poseidon. You have to fish for lightning phalanx to bring it to parity with poseidon. You could make the argument that it unlocks athena for divine dash + dd, but at 32 that's not really necessary.
artemis is good damage, good supporting boon, but ultimately single target. You might get away with it with JS0, but poseidon is so much more consistent.
so we're left with poseidon. Supporting boons give extra damage from rupture, + damage to boss, if you slam to barrier you might get more damage from boons. and it unlocks mirage shot
oh Gz
grats
@true fable straight up idk if its possible but i figured i'd encourage you in case it was
in terms of why poseidon over artemis first, ultimately the reasoning is you want to get a cast boon as quickly as you can in tartarus, since you are at your weakest point. artemis you want for mirage shot, exit wounds, and fully loaded - none which you need in tartarus yet
90% of mobs will die in 3 poseidon casts in tartarus, so exit wounds is not necessary
it's used to finish off mobs with more HP that have 3 casts lodged in them
the only hard fight is furies
so yeah, poseidon into artemis is the best keepsake combo for 32 poseidon
I'm definitely curious, and oh you just typed ot
you got me excited, I'll try it now
holy shoot lol
hazard bomb hestia with divine flourish
can insta phase tis
by deflecting a whole volley of projectiles
for Poseidon sword, what hammers are good...?
woah. got piercing wave, epic poseidon cast, and immediate exit wounds haha
I mean the hammers are veeeery secondary, you can go entire run without attacking even once
maybe the one where your special is bigger is convenient? double nova maybe?
@rain sedge go stream so I can fall asleep and take a nap to eris gameplay
that makes sense, thanks for the explanation schad
I'm still getting used to my setup
@lusty mirage Sorry for the last couple runs lmao
We were talking about it earlier, but the GY attack dream build died in Elysium (epic swift strike, triple jab start) @daring hedge
noooo
budget hades aspect
But I got a terrible bp bow room
i actually know that pain
high density BP strongbow rooms are really dangerous
basically those and JS boosted speeder greatshield rooms are among my most dreaded for elysium
they were 4 in this side of the river, nowhere to hide
Death was not painful, it was quick
And I'm the psycho
now just need to rebind pause into a joystick button
but I think that's not possible
nevermind I did it
I'm pretty proud of myself
does zag always cast in front of himself?
okay.. Poseidon swordi s suuuuper strong. didn't get mirage cast, but got it my first attempt with Flood cast
told you it's free
why was spear so much harder than the other weapons? am I worse with it or is it just harder?

FeelsBadMan retrash
oh no
now that you've seeded dedge, why don't you just mod it to always give 2 sac
I think there's something that does that
the deadly strike and epic hunter dash 
at least hermes cup people modify their sac number
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/599449585710006288/790715318145908786/unknown.png oh excuse me not a 4-sack... a 5-sack LOL
There's a daily quota for mean? What's the point of that? 
poor astaos 😦
I'm trying to do the pierced butterfly achievement
and now when I hear the "ga-dong" I get PTSD from the TD3 damage from the sacs
has the 2sack mod indulgence begun lol
i'd imagine a 5sack experience like that would tempt it

@true fable ello is after your beo 32 👀
someone was saying that the controller movement overrides the mouse aim
nooo I was gonna do the 32 WR
np do it
I havent experienced that so far
isn't ello an actual speedrunner
instead of a casual
The only difference between an actual speedrunner and a casual speedrunner is that the former takes low heat too serious. 
i am 👀
the flood flare strats
not more than GY attack build dying in Elysium
@sly remnant @gaunt fiber you two should take the response time test so we can sort you into your houses.

I got 178 earlier
It's not
That's exactly what a liar would say if it was a lie. 
True
https://puu.sh/GZLXG/3ea7661993.png not bad for a first attempt after not trying it for a while
arent you gonna congratulate me on 17th place 
I'm sure I'm slow. Put me in slow house
Nope
It's nice to react quickly
but what if your reaction is a dash in the lava?
nice, you would be able do dash in the lava quicker than anyone
Theoretically this would also help with then dashing out of the lava faster
If you don't then you can more quickly realize that you're gonna take a bunch of damage
And then when your other dash comes up you can very quickly dash straight into a gorgon rock
yeah that's my point dear Hat
And by you, I mean... me
ridiculoushat
That's not what simple response time is about, though. That's a much more complex reaction you're describing. 
your reaction time is pretty quick
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/392070250511728653/790727690474618900/unknown.png lets goooo I was getting like >220 and then this
lmao
i dont know what old man reactions you're talking about
@formal gust post that in PBs
LOL
I maintain it's an error with the site
what are the verification standards
can try to anticipate to get lucky and grind it
^
i got a 174 just now and i'm slow
show death in response time test
yeah but getting one 85 lowers your average, once i got a 22
