player who has practiced em4 probably more than any of us combined
Skullring requires you to be below, HC to be above, right? So the rounding made Skullring never work with SD, but HC should always work then.
wasn't a case of rounding, but moreso how HC works from its description
for all i knew it could have specified "above 80%"
retrash hasnt turned off em4 since he unlocked it
Atticor you were gold too 
Messing with my identification process
Nah he's just using uno cards
'You draw 4' seems like a bad idea unless you're trying to mill your opponent
'Your turn is now my turn' would be sweet tho
There are literally Hearthstone decks that can do that lol
End your opponent's turn in HS? Eh, I guess there's the mage deck in wild sort of.
And Tickatus is in standard for milling
Thank you
I would love a crossover game lol
Maybe a Hades themed Slay the Spire. Anyway, yeah Hades
How about a Hades themed Hades
I think you killed the mood Foxy
What? No. Rush Kick + Demeter Aspect does 7 hits. 2 + 5 is not 10. @weak gyro
Normal Rush Kick is 2 hits just like a normal Uppercut is 2 hits. Dash-Special Rush Kick is 1 hit just like a normal Dash-Upper is 1 hit.
For a charged Special, a normal Rush Kick is 2 + 5 = 7 hits. Dash-Upper with Rush Kick is 1 + 5 = 6 hits.
I do that a lot tbh.
Yeah, his nickname is actually FoxMoodKiller.
You wouldn't understand what a mood is, though, because you're a
.
Yeah, in terms of damage it just buffs your regular Special to 40 base damage per hit instead of 30.
Dash-Special is still 40 like before.
Hey.
I do have emotions and stuff
What's up,
? You got something to say?
I know. What's wrong? Getting a little uptight? 
Lmao
Thanks for this astonishing defense
Dazzling
I also have defended Asta... Nah I can't do it lol
i like astaos
he is good-natured about the teasing and makes funny jokes
he also happens to be good at hades
What teasing?
I will defend Astaos for so long as he pays me with internet cookies.
oh great, @gaunt fiber can pay people with internet cookies and yet act so high and mighty when I send thoughts and prayers.
I despise stubborn defiance 😦
double standard smh
You can't eat thoughts and prayers
Just don't run LC4 4head
Isn’t that like...the standard thing to do tho?
It is eventually
Yeah I would start it on 40 up
Sweet lemme try that
flashbacks to that one guy who used to frequent here and react to everything with the fork and knife emoji
The combination of stubborn defiance, LC4, 5 min timer is super hard for me
So yeah lemme tweak that
where’s the pinned 40 heat guide
I’d much rather do js0 td3
Js3 ew
there should be a heat option. where enemies also get all your mirror perks
all enemies now have SD, ruthless reflex, 50 more hp, etc
Do you want the 32 heat I use to do streaks on @opal token ?
Sure Fox
Bone-rakers with merciful end
Is merciful end a mirror perk
@opal token
You can pick Damage Control depending on weapon
I tend to do HL0 and DC2 on fist and rail, for example
HS can also be swapped out for LC or something idk
you also have room to swap TD3 out
HS can also be swapped out for LC or something idk
I rarely die to HS at this point tbh
I like you too, even if you pom pressure points
Hey I turned on healing and got to Elysium for the first time lol
lmao

how are people doing 5 minutes on 32 heat? i couldn't do it on very low heats...
we have spent too much time playing a single player game
^
You have to understand your aspect (or you could play Eris, as you wish) to optimize your dps, try to kill stuff while moving towards the exist to "force" enemies spawn near you
and just force yourself to be quick. Take mid shop, chaos gates, and meet your friends
5 minutes on 32 heat would be the anyheat wr lol
i think he meant 5 mins/region
ah fair
Help them, stingy Fox
i don't have much experience on high heat, but on lower, the zeus shield has seemed super op to me, and got me a 16 heat win
why do I suck at rama so much lol
i am tempred to try it on 32 if i ever go for 32
I can't get used to not powershotting every time
zeus shield is very good. you have good instincts
the way i use it though looks very silly
same
basically "aaah someone help me this bladed shield is chasing me"
i don't think i blocked even once in the whole run
i got lots of zeus boons and the disc was killing everything
well I was gonna do all aspects 40
but then I tried nemesis
and I decided I'm never gonna do it
Yeah ngl the sword gonna be tough
you have free crits
like I can't even dash strike consistently
you can afford an owl pendant start
like divine dash first boon?
yes
arthur is ok imo
isn't arthur the strongest sword?
Arthur with DC and AP really bad imo
you don't take DC with arthur
Since Arthur kinda needs highroll
AP1 is "ok"
BP2 is the big spooky, next 32 attempts i'll prob try have bp1 and add heat somewhere else
I can't mentally handle cloner + speeder on wretched wizards
10
I'm still gonna try to streak all aspects
i know you'll get it
are they true streaks or do ya reset?
is it even possible to die at 45?
Why not both? 
well after experiencing the nightmare fuel known as cloner + speeder on wretched wizards, I'd rather not experience that on a daily basis 
what about the project to get 50+ on all aspects retrash?
@rain sedge I'm at 14 aspects
sword hard
enjoyment vs satisfaction ratio is a bit too low
you did fists?
I am of course, a very casual PC player
no I got ruined by dad a few times, it's hard to do it on fist
Yeah it took me some tries
I've been watching some good players too
So I had an idea on how to play malphon
Stealing knowledge is very viable
I've done all rail (typical), poseidon, GY, zag spear, chiron, hera, zag shield, chaos, zag fist
so that's 12
how was chaos?
it was very reliable
zag spear required any 1 of the 3 hammers that made it great
well actually there's 4-5 hammers that's great for it but some are harder to make it work
it didnt take too many resets
zag shield I mean
For my Zag shield I'll just heartbreak strike foes to death I think
the zeus special strat works well for me
the extra bounce hammer/explosive return/damage after catching special works with it
and you just put anything on the attack
Oh interesting
I mean you can also high roll for pulverizing blow but... yea
zeus for chaos too?
I think so, yeah. I can't remember, this was long ago
but I think dio also works? I never liked his boon mechanic though
I don't think it works
you have to stack hangover
I can't see chaos stacking it well
maybe I'm wrong tho
the special each gives hangover stack, right?
I mean, I think someone said it works
I just go zeus
I'm pretty sure I go TD3 too, so it's relatively fast
would you take DC on zeus flourish chaos shield?
I did
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/725021639506526249/799452373881061395/unknown.png wasn't someone asking about lightning strike Arthur at one point?
A guy did, I've seen it before done too. By Peachhead
Congratz btw, fun build!
He got a good time too iirc
but the damage was tidal dash
oh I'd like to see his win screen
oh it was any heat?
Yeah I think so
I definitely did a Zeus Athur meme run cause I still don't think it's fast lol. But that's impressive for 45 heat @north dove
thanks, arthur feels strong enough that anything can work on it
I'm glad someone agrees with me 🙂 haha
You will learn soon young padawan 🙂
doubles hp, reduces damage and slows opponents, that weapon does too much lol
he did indeed
Honestly I've done cursed slash Arthur and it ain't so bad because of the high starting health.
have you seen his 54 zag sword run
Thick skin Arthur is plenty to manage cursed slash
if you see high heat with a boon/aspect combo that shouldnt work, but somehow it works, that's retrash
just check his other victory screens, it's not even the best one
remember retrash's 45 heat lightning strike hestia
I mean I'd definitely take double edge, shadow slash, or breaching slash first but...if you have AP2 on I get it. Even though Retrash didn't in this case LUL
dont worry there are people here that makes us who "only" cleared 50 heat feel bad
Personal liability, hell mode exclusive
Removes the excessive damage shield
ah he plays on hell mode as well, of course he does 
No level of approval process there either, he willingly took it instead of the game forcing him to
actually built different
Willingly took what, Personal Liability?
Cursed slash on Arthur
Oh, that ha ha
am I right it aiming for heart rend on arthur in high heat? 
how high is high
the low end of high, which is an oxymoron, 32 heat
ye heart rend is absolutely fine there
more attempts tonight then probably, failed my first run due to some SD issues which tilted me for the other two attempts 
at this rate I just want to see him try make the worst build possible and pull it off
he's already done heroic level 6 drunken dash

dude's just good
I just got beamed to death even though I stood in the middle of dad
is the safe spot quite small? or did I do something wrong
that was really weird actually
sorry bright I tainted beo again
either that or an urn spawned on top of me
I tried but the heroic trade was too tempting
anyone? how big is the safe spot?
You weren't running EM4, right? And yes, it's very small. Animation slide back can push you out of it sometimes
It does
well then
that was a waste of a perfectly good 40 achilles run
thank you for explanation 🙂

casting pushes you back, and you can also get shoved out by his shoulders

jaysus em4 is 10 heat, was watching some arthur runs and they all run em4 and have so many other pacts not enabled it's wild
he truly is
a professor
of hades the game
what are some tips to getting a good time with the blade?
weird thought process question,
would you take curse of longing here or reroll for chance of curse of nausea
https://i.imgur.com/K5i89X7.jpg
nausea I'm gonna use 100x more, but not like it's guaranteed
just take longing
Mmk
longing does better damage
Yeah but I'm running charged shot and playing hyper defensive
So not meleeing all too often
Would ya dump side hustle or call at the customs? 
Since your running no TD you hae time to make use of Curse of Longing, otherwise this is the prime opportunity to get curse of nausea.
probably call
Lmao yeah I attempted TD but not even close with shield
Special into 2x Dash-Strike?
okay pressure time... first time against em3 heroes... in 32 heat 
dietime
yup, got asterius down and theseus off hit chariot :c
well that's a pepehands
all the characters have dialogue about elysium, IM WELL AWARE I DIED THERE THANK YOU 
how could you die at elysium smh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn' heat 32 is tough. I somehow managed to reach Theseus in my best attempt, but I just can't clear well enough if I can't heal myself. I can't manage SD correctly, I'm still better with DD.
You don't have to take LC4 on 32
if it was lc2/lc3 would you take DD & dark regen? 
lc3 doesn't make much sense honestly, especially with cf2. Just too expensive for too little.
there is no such thing as LC3, LC2 or LC4 only
or yknow, LC0
I suppose if you have huge brains you can do LC3, use demeter keepsake, and get nourishing soul first boon
I could see lc2 with SD and dark regen to top up the health before a boss as a new player.
Hi guys, new here. Don't know if this would be the right place to ask and I apologize if it's not but I was wondering:
Are there any speedrunners with (or have had) WR times that use kbm?
@true fable
he used KBM for the beo speedruns, which was top for 32 heat at some point
or so I remember
oh nice!
Baj uses KBM and is king of Zeus
but no, this is not the right channel. there's a speedrunning discord separate from this one
ohhhhh
BAJ USES KBM???
why would shield make you want to use KBM?
I guess I wouldn't know since I don't block with shields
a man's man
I'm time after time impressed by you not knowing stuff Schad
Like standing in 360 Lasers..
he's a very casual pc player afterall 
bleh this run is going nowhere, onto next attempt 
it did not work consistently, okay. I lost an achilles 40 because I greeded and tried that
I really did not want to repeat achilles, it's quite unenjoyable as a weapon
but the shield block is just something I don't do because I'm a bad player
More of a thing for weapons that are at point blank anyways yeah
I would take healing and DD with up to lc2
Lc3 seems pointless unless you're doing Nourished or strong Drink I guess and even then not great
LC2 strong Drink is pretty nice tho, fountains giving you back half hp after a boss fight are nice
And most importantly for the final boss
Any heat WR is Lili, kbm
Tried to follow pinned message guide, but clearly I felt that LC4 is too much to handle, as well as SD instead of DD. Is BP2 really a bad idea with Eris aspect, or I may have a chance?
BP2 isn't a problem for me because I don't remember not having it turned on
So I find it difficult to quantify how hard it makes the game for someone who doesn't use it
man BP2 is SPOOKY to me, numbskull clones with lasers zooming at you
Same for FO2
If you're doing TD2 and Eris I would consider JS3
You're just gonna plow through everything anyway
I see I see. Usually I use BP 1, I rarely use BP2, I did for heat 32. Maybe I'll train some combinations before a new 32 try.
Haha. That's precisely what I tried yesterday, I just put TD3 instead of 2, but I guess td3 was a bit too much. (and not getting a tech until Elysium, too)
You can try AP1 too. It will be a bit limiting but you don't need that much boon power for 32
I tried it, never again x)
Prevented me to pick Poseidon dash twice, and Artemis special twice too,
Yes, Eris is the best result I got, Chiron was a bit tough with DC2
I think my favorite Eris is Zeus attack, Aphro special and Flood Shot, Tidal dash
If you can get Billowing and Smoldering together 🔥🔥
Haha that's exactly what I tried to do, just Artemis instead of Aphrodite, it's really about Pact's combinations
my best run was "play as defensively as humanly possible" with chaos shield 
pity my boss kills take 20 mins each
Try Zeus
Smoldering is the 5 bombs if I'm right (I play in French, so I don't know the English version), and what is Billowing?
Zeus shield will let you be defensive while killing them.
Smoldering is the Zeus and Aphro duo boon.
Oh
that's actually a point... I'd have to practice zeus a bit though
I thought it was Deadalus
Billowing Strength is a Zeus boon that increases your damage when you call
Ooh. Thank you
So you can see the insane power of having a constant call
Guess I'll turn English mode on the game to get used to English names. c:
Start with Thunder flourish
yeah im just diving in, all I know about zeus shield is go hard on zeus boons lol
It's the most consistent and best way to learn it.
Then you can see about merciful End or artemis special
curse of pain + dire misfortune could work, deadly flourish is only good if it's maxed
The sneaky power of having Zeus Special is that it triggers every single time your disc deals damage which is 0.3 seconds
wait, start zeus flourish but switch to ME/artemis?
Zeus Special and Zeus boons is one thing. Merciful End is like, get doom special and divine attack, pick up ME and impending doom /dire misfortune.
Artemis special is something else entirely
I believe you try to and get Aphro attack with it and angle to a heart rend
Hmmm, I may have found something that could work I guess?
HL 2, LC 2, CF 2, JS 3, EM3, BP2, MM, UC, FO 1, DC 2, and TD2.
(Eris aspect)
The highest skill ceiling build by far is Poseidon special which I won't even go into
Seems okay!
You could even just do Fo2 and cut away the HL and a point of CF
Fast enemies that don't hit hard are great for learning FO2
Yep, I take note, even if, I admit, FO2 is a bit too much to handle for me right now. c:
Oh
I give a try then
Yeah you'll get hit but the damage is low and you have some healing
And you will learn the enemies with FO2 so you'll get hit less and less.
Just, uh, one thing
I agree
That's the main reason I try to avoid FO2 / EM3. :D
Well, give it a few runs and see how it goes.
I take note, thank you for your advices! c:
Good luck
Thank you!
I'm sure you'll do it soon! Maybe not on 1st try, but every run will be better
The first time in Elysium and getting pounded by some sword guys was rough
But now you laugh at them
Yep, eventually I'll manage, I reached Theseus once, I can do it again. c:
weird question, does sunken treasure count as a boon you can sell 
damn that would have been 300iq 
free health, coins n darkness then sell it off as customs
same reason why boons like premium vintage, rare crop and the like aren't sellable
they do something on pickup
it would have been a 300iq play for sure 😂
huh TIL
well that was nice, a non SD lernie fight
onto the nightmare fuel area
aaaaaaand another L, entire room of seeker bows 😄😄😄😄


a room full of seeker longbows is a very scary thing to think about
I did it!! I cleared Heat 32! o/
there's like 5 people shooting at you doing 10 damage per hit, 3 arrows at a time and the arrows also track you
yoo congrats
i haven't done 16 heat yet myself
Thanks!
v nice alu, i'll be there one day 
This, with FO on. :D.
yup, literally how I died, they kept flanking as well so I couldn't even send out my shield and block :c
Good job Alu 😎
Thank you, you gave great advices!
I pass down the knowledge 😁
What would a good way to build heat up? Go to 8, 16, 32 and bite the bullet everytime?
Or just add one lvl and slowly build up?
Just do Heats you wanna do. Some go one by one, others manage to jump. There's not really some objective advantage.
Yeah, i am doing 1 by 1 at the moment, but the runs are really similar (difficulty wise). Would be probably more fun to take a few big steps and crank it up
You could check the pins to find some staples
Yeah, have read those, but not yet put into practice. Thanks!
em2/td1/bp1 is a good start
fo1 isn't bad but not recommended if you're using a slow weapon
Yeah, i m mostly playing with Arthur. Also mentions that in the pins
i wish there were pinned guides for anywhere between 16-32 heat, i don't think 8 heat really needs a dedicated guide since it's not very difficult but it can be intimidating
The biggest adjustment is probably relearning how hard you can push

You would know.
You're right
ah yes, I do love using zeus' keepsake and not getting a single other zeus boon in a run 
just suicided at lernie cause I had no synergies going whatsoever
we go again 
32 heat complete, thanks all for putting up with my whining 
gosh, I keep trying to power through 32 heat with Extreme Measures 4 on, I'm so stubborn lmao
I really ought to not
EM4 is rlly hard
It certainly makes it harder
the video above politely pointed out to me why this is hubris
I did everything possible to avoid em4
I almost tried to go down to em2 
em3 wasn't too bad though, at least with my stupidly bonkers build
EM3 is fine after you get used to it
yup, just like TD, just like BP etc 
I'll probably start running EM3 just to make my runs harder and so I can practice
I want that last skelly prize already dangit!
I will prohably go for em4 32 heat next
New poe league today though, so idk when I'll try it
Em4 is fun but I don't like it on high heat
i like how at max LC stubborn defiance becomes your source of healing
zag voice oh nooooo don't kill me nooo [ abuses stubborn defiance
The game is a lot different at 32 heat, it's much harder at 40, 50 isn't Hades anymore and 60 is insanity.
Do any of you who play on heat 30+ use mods?
well given my recent runs, you could think I run a "no Patty no Than 4 sack only" mod, but I do not
i've seen the 60 heat run on youtube, jeez
it has to be a pixel perfect speedrun essentially
just powershot lol
Tailesque is that you
tailesque has such an eerie percentage of powershot, that I had to go to the game to check if he's doing powershot or normal shot all the time
because I had such disbelief that anyone can pull it off that consistently

getting powershots with rama is... surprisingly difficult
astaos, do you pay for discord premium just so you can use meme emotes?
I don't know what's wrong about that
anyways i'm gonna go for merciful end on fists because i don't feel too good about getting a sub 18 on that weapon when i got a sub 15 with the gun
Powershots I find are easier with dash shots
yeah dash shots are generally better
you get to do it frequently so of course you can easily get a feel for it
rama feels clunky though
I don't use mods, it would stop being Hades.
Powershot, you get into a rhythm and then you just nail them
I can't get mad about a fair mechanic that I succeed or fail at depending only on my own skill
you should always be dash striking lol
except if enemies are spawning in and you arent running DC
guess i'm one of those cases where i'm practically unable to get the rhythm right
practice on skelly
except for when i get that perfect rush hammer for shield for some reason
you'll get it pretty quickly
somehow i can't do it with bow but i can do it pretty well with power rush + sudden rush
So
I wasted 4 tries on Zeus, could not keep up with TD3
Only to get on TD3 pace with TD2
I do 
Epic flourish start into common Curse of Agony rare cropped
why artemis start out of curiosity? if you're going ares as well
or did you keepsake the athena dash in aspho?
I wanted damage without duos or w/e
I think that's divine dash at least, i'm partially colourblind 
so I went arty and athena (for the extra DD that I did not get)
ah fair just ignoring the blade rift stuff
I was trying Zeus build but I timed out 2 times on dad after 3-4 sack
so it got me a bit upset and I turned off TD3 and went the crit way
yo wait stubborn roots hella stronk with SD
astaos pretending he has emotions again
lmao
^
Yeah I tried to make it work as a crutch
its so bad lol
But you will either : lose time in an encounter to get hp back, delaying your death because playing safe vs a boss
I will do another one with TD3.
This run does not count
How can I forget things I can do

If you average less than 20 minute runs then TD3 is free
If you're not quite sure then do td2
if i actively did td3 then i'd be getting diamonds and titan blood way slower so uh no thanks
maybe if i decide to do 16 heat
hi, heat strategies
hi~~
hi rigged
TD2 is basically free for me, but I can’t get sub 20 minute runs consistently
Even my fastest tend to be like 10 seconds longer
just take the 50 damage
though I tuned on TD2 recently
so I can open troves and farm for darkness
damn badges takes so much darkness
what
LOL
Oh yeah lol
Barge is joining?
Not joining so much as barging in
Damn it this bot is good xD
I lost context for most of those typos tbh
It's not that old
Ik, goldfish memory
The team is too big anyway
Yeah release the pokemons

And you, you want a ban, too?
I would not refuse a banana
And a lovely weekend to you! 
Is it still feasible to do Erebus gates on 5 min timers? Like I just tried one and it took a full minute bc it was just a million mobs. No jury summons
Just like 6 rounds of respawns
if you're on decent pace yeah i find they're doable in tartarus or asphodel at high heat TD3
elysium though i would not bother
elysium there is just a chance you get hit
just a chance
Double down ;)
I beat an Elysium Erebus gate with Talos fists one time and it might have been the proudest I’ve ever been in this game
it's still situational of course, you can have a run where you're tight on time and taking the gate would put you more at risk of going overtime
No I’m not terribly smart, why do you ask?
you learn to gauge it
Risk of getting hit by stray butterfly too high
I took a centaur heart gate in asphodel for my mirrorless GY
4 hp at the end of the run
yeah if i'm running RI2, erebus asphodel heart is huge and i will likely take it if it doesn't take the place of a shop or miniboss
he enjoys curses
oh right of course
also who in the world thought it was a good idea to make the titan blood bonus reduce a penalty
just make it scale the special or somethign
Yeah, the other titan blood upgrades generally make a weapon better, not make it less worse
thats a fine change
i wonder if the initial titan blood cost makes people wary of it in the first place
5 hp per hit but -70% hp still pog
Just make it -50% hp from the start and have the titan blood upgrades just upgrade the lifesteal
Give it a special Call where you get Liu Bei and Zhang Fei to show up so you can get drunk together
And then Zhang Fei can kill everything in the chamber before passing out, I guess.

are we playing the same game?
Have you not gotten drunk on Ambrosia
It's orange juice 
It's orange juice 
... Sure buddy, that's what it is.

In Greek myth nectar and ambrosia basically are made from honey
Yes, mead
gah! Got to hades but lost out on time trying to make back death defiances I lost to HC
I was so close too, agh
are you going for completion or time
standard speedrunning pact is HL5 LC4 EM3 MM BP1 FO2 HS TD3
some people prefer EM3 BP1 -> EM2 BP2
what's the setup for completion?
A lot of people refer to 32 heat as the "dont get hit" version of any heat
Completion is HL5 LC4 CF2 EM3 BP2 MM UC TD3
^I might be forgetting something obvious I haven't run it in forever
Looks about right, some people run FO1 instead of something else
I play on fo1 since fo2 is too hard for my smoothbrain
FO2 is a bit of a doozy but 1 just feels normal
gosh, Lasting Consequences and Hard Labor both scare me
Don't be afraid of hard labor. Its really not bad until you crank up FO2
Lasting consequences: just use SD to heal
Hard labor: don’t get hit lol
yuh
I see kasdfjsdhajk
HL is just like having 50% less health, so not so bad 
FO0 HL5 is really manageable
UC is free for completion and god awful for time
ah
I'm on Hell mode, and Personal Liability is huge F
You probably have a very particular hatred for bp2 witches
Mmm, yeah.
I did a TD3 JS1 run once and learned that you don’t use JS very quickly lol
Js1 is fine until elysium
I kinda wanna try that now
aksdfhasjkdasjkdks
Not
Its an unfortunate abbreviation
Yeah everyone mixes it up with Copy/Paste
yu p
yeah i'd believe it
just 99% sure somoene mentioned doing it
what i have learned:
- i am very out of practice with chaos
- i am very bad at hades with 1 dash
given those two facts, i think it says something about how good chaos is for playing it safe that i still managed this on the first try
lol that final fight was embarrassing tho
only pulled through because i remembered that you can cheese hades with charged shot by just hiding in a corner lmao
um i honestly don't know
it isn't that dim for me, i'm pretty sure its something to do with my hdr settings
after 20 heat i'm simply unable to get more bounties?
20 heat per weapon yes
If you do prophecies you should be able to max basically everything before you run out of bounties
i should go for harsh conditions
it can't be that bad considering i've already crossed nearly half of it off the list
Each pact on its own is honestly pretty manageable, especially when only a single point is put into it
not having any rerolls could be problematic but i've been off worse
just a shame i don't get as many chances for duo boons
I mean, fair, but I think most people probably get their first clear well before their mirror is complete anyway so it's not like it's too punishing
yeah, i mean i got my first clear way before getting fated persuasion anyways
Gah, came so close with an achilles serrated point build
It's okay, I have Eris lined up next
any tips for 16 heat? i have fo1, em3, td2, bp1 and mm
thinking of going arthur since hallowed ground nullifies forced overtime but i could just try merficul end on fists and go full-on "play lame win game" for the third time in a row
i'd consider taking some HL instead of FO, other than that seems fine
FO is a good pact to avoid on arthur especially
i could just go with hl and lc
sometimes i feel like i took one too many centaur hearts by the end of a run
LC generally isn't used at 16 either
i guess i could just put on hl1 and ri1
if you don't like the sound of HL3 then UC or or some CF will be easier to manage than LC
RI1 is actually way more annoying than it looks
Dark foresight is really really good
but feel free to experiment
i've been off worse
at least i beat hades before unlocking the last 4 mirror talents
well i've been running RI4 for fun on half my runs lately so i can't exactly stop you lol
honestly trying out a bunch of the pacts and getting a feel for them is pretty useful anyway
anyone else think EM3 theseus is easier than without it
RI4 for fun, impressive
i mean, i haven’t been winning with it regularly
it’s fun because it feels very different to “real” high heat stuff, but still interesting because there’s still a good chance i’ll die
i wanna do mirrorless soon but i don't think i'm good enough for it
this is actually a pretty common take, which i share
at least i'm used to having only one dash thanks to fists
i use ruthless reflex with fists most of the time
interesting choice
i just don't like using greater because i end up double dashing away from the enemy by accident
good mirrorless training tho
it happens more often than you think i swear
i want all the i-frames i can get on fists tbh
plus greater is obviously best in slot for ME
if i'm using a ranged weapon like rail or bow i'm definitely using greater though
i've gotten so used to being able to dash once sometimes i don't even pick greatest reflex if i'm already using greater reflex lol
i always use LC4 even though i suck at not getting hit
when doing a 32+ heat run that is
i still havent gotten past 30 haha
me who hasn't gotten past 16 because bad rng
@edgy arrow proud of you
what did i do
Emancipate from the mirror
i'm gonna have to do ri1 at some point because i gotta get the harsh conditions achievement
and also titan blood
It's nice that we see high heat interested players here
Rather the usual bunch of masochists
imagine if hades fans were like hollow knight fans
what’re hollow knight fans like
i played that game a bit, but haven’t really delved into its community
Modded Hollow Knight levels are finally here! With the new CustomDecorations mod by sawyer, you can place objects like spikes, sawblades, platforms, and more into pre-existing levels, and then share them with others. It's not exactly a new level, but you can essentially redesign rooms, as long as they fit within pre-existing rooms in the game.
...
hollow knight is very fun
the path of pain is the most fun part of hollow knight imo :)
Sealed vessel 💗
pure vessel 💗
pure vessel is quite fun, but abs radiance is disgusting
honestly i enjoy absrad fight a lot
i bet you genuinely enjoyed path of pain
no i never did path of pain LMAO
i like combat challenges more than platforming challenges
so godhome spoke to me way more than path of pain
path of pain was enjoyable at the second time i went through it
nobody tell him about ascended markoth 🙈
radiant markoth lmao
chooo chooo
I need to use stubborn defiance, on high heat I cant build up enough death defiances to make Cerbie's collar worth more than a skelly tooth
SD will be great once you'll be used to the bosses
^
been speedrunning too much, forgot how much enemies hurt in 40h lol
What’s a good 8 heat setup?
Also, does convenience fee mean that the Styx blood/diamond is also more expensive?
Diamond and Titan Blood prices stay the same, covenience fee or not
Oh good
Zaegis always starts out feeling wack, then turns out to be awesome
whats a good starting build for zag shld?
Artemis attack -> Aphrodite dash
Shoot for Heart Rend
Pulverizing Blow is your main hammer
charged shot is a good consolation
As is Dashing Wallop
What did you go for ?
Heartbreak strike, special on doom, explosive return, dashing wallop
Interesting
But Arty attack on a base 40 damage attack/dash-attack is actually huge
Arty gets more of wallop and of getting heart rend, but Aphro attack is completely fine
^
Nice name fellow casual bright
i simultaneously dread and look forward to the day i do 32 heat
good morning heaters
I will return to lower heats until I've maxed out all the weapons, I cannot take the heat, I MUST stay out of the kitchen
now that i got the last of skelly's prizes
i wanna max out fated persuasion and authority but i think at this point i don't wanna go below 11 heat
how many aspects is that astaos?
hes catching up
he's already ahead, I havent been playin
I'm not trying to get Zaegis with Deadly strike too, no rush
What is left is : swords, 2 spears, chaos
damn
I'm left with 3 swords, achilles, hades, 3 fists
and of course, stupid beowulf
I'm literally face taking rooms to go fast
oooh wait zag bow and rama too
I've been failing at the beowulf runs badly, I hate this aspect
I got mine first try, quite easily but blessed run
I've been kinda unlucky but inherently I'm just bad at the weapon
I've handled worse RNGs on the other runs
I had CF maxed and AP1 UC
gilgamesh I have no idea what I'm gonna do
It depends
If you just wanna clear, go ME
I did not want to go ME for fists
Since playing ME is not playing the aspect to me
isnt the attack too slow for an effective ME run?
I was gonna retrash it up and blade dash
This was part of my plan
Yeah I hate that attack too but it should work
well I'll retrash it up then high roll for ME
if I fail
meanwhile, I gotta deal with beowulf... sigh
What is it?
Hadesprofessor afaik did all aspects at 50 heat
I mean I just want an easy way since I am a casual
let me try beo one more time
you gonna push heat soon astaos?
50 GY?
Curse of longing passion dash Doom on special, special only
I feel like tartarus is the tightest on time using tight deadline
If I get past tartarus on TD2, the rest of the deadline is easy
Yeah I'll do it. Don't know when tho. I'm clearing 40 heat all aspects, then prolly a bit of GY speedruns (32 or 40 imo), then maybe
I just change plans frequently for something funnier
Maybe I'll push mirrorless GY
But mirrorless requires so much energy
Interesting
64 GY :p
do the impossible
Tailesque got very close
On GY I mean
Just need to either learn how to do it one dash or hope hermes gives you extra dashes
it's the RI4 LC4 that's the barrier
at least lifesteal still works on LC4
just get a healing hammer
Yeah and that's huge
none exist on bow
But spin GY is too slow
Even with seed, I would need more practice. Not good enough yet
Just git gud bro
Yeah
Big brain strat :D
Oh yeah mirage shot
are you running flood flare
I went crush shot Heartbreak flourish charged flight
yeah the certified bright01 build ™
I dont need hammers right
pretty unnecessary for hammers yea. but sudden + mino or charged + sudden
are quite good
charged shot in general is S+ tier
