it is actually good yeah
like he starts ares keepsake
then takes attack or dash by rarity
lmao
god gamer
he really is
it's also just a really fun boon
setting up the blades before an enemy spawns is satisfying
that's definitely true
Is it as satisfying as lining up a cast with an enemy spawn tho
I very much enjoy dropping a cast in an enemy right as they pop up
Oh wait I'm talking to beo players never mind
That's something that happens on other weapons š
that is cheating but its also true
honestly probably better than dem cast
can't really argue
lmao
yeah you might be right haha
although if you can sell the duo you now have the best cast for beo and a lot of money
so its not the worst situation to be in ig
I was looking while doing the episode with Tyler for the first beo run we have on krashercorr's sheet
And it is horheristo with icy flare
The video is titled "torture %"
They really really really didn't
wait
he actually forced icy flare
Yeah his other runs at 40 look like he's trying
So this was... something he thought was optimal
he's actually trying to find a good build yeah
The legends of snow burst go back years
quote from vid description: "I like this new aspect a lot, but fml I can't figure out how to make it do work fast enough in Elysium under these conditions, so I had to reduce the boss tier."
mood horheristo
wtf is that video
i can't get through elysium with icy flare either
That is the first recorded beo run we have on the spreadsheet
It was brand new at the time I think
This is how people thought you had to play beo
aaaaaaa
beo genuinely baffled everyone when it came out
I can see the argument of feeling like you need to force snow burst
But yeah the strats were sub par
just get a decent cast and force snow burst in asphodel lol
or go for mirage like we would now ofc, but if you haven't thought of that yet
pseudo you did 50 with zeus cast
i think you already did torture%
Torture%?
That is some Modern Warfare
i need to see these runs
entirely fair
Jerds%?
Yeah he has all his abilities mapped to the zxcv row
that's controller and mouse right?
with beo??? no chance
Jerds% is controller mouse
ohh
yeah but I have neither right now
Croven% is all your abilities are on the bottom keyboard row and you use actual arrow keys
Ideally on a laptop keyboard
woah that's way worse than i thought
yeah it's bad
its honestly shocking how much better at this game i got when i switched to a real keyboard
laptop keyboard stinky
what does a switch run at?
I think 30
oh oof
On docked it might be faster, closer to 60
But it struggles sometimes
Plus a TV is much further away than a monitor
laptop keyboard is how u ascend to god gaming
There it is
Oh man ZXC and AS
did you not have a mouse
Summon was SPACE?
I do not have a mouse
summon as space is my favorite part yeah
I have a trackpad
thank god
if you just did that for fun i would have been extremely concerned
I guess when you wanna summon you don't wanna find the button
nah thatās unironically what I thought was optimal for me
and it was!
until I got a controller
I think I did like
honestly i respect it
32 all aspects and sub 10 all weapons on those binds
Wow
I just thought of something: convenience fee interacts with tight deadline 3 because convenience fee makes shops less useful lol
i remap all sorts of stuff in most of the games i play
playing out of the box bindings is usually a mistake imo
but this is taking it pretty far
I like low heat practice runs because I can actually buy stuff
I rebound dash to bumper
Oh yeah convenience fee is secretly the devil
And reload to another bumper
look oho I had to find what worked
Dash on bumper sounds like a lot of trigger action
I can see special on trigger but the amount of dashing I do would be awkward on trigger
I still use those binds for hestia
Itās not trigger
since Iām just so used to the reload muscle memory
Itās a button on shoulder
I'm not going to do it for beo though
Yeah I call those triggers
that sounds like pure pain
I think that's what they are
itās not that bad for beo
I had some decent success w it
it is definitely "that bad" for beo
lmao
I can dash attack easily
maybe u need to game better pseudo
Isn't that harder on your hands/wrists?
you have 8 directions for bull rush my dude
thatās enough
8
itās easy
For the default bindings you just jam your thumb diagonally to dash attack
My hands and wrists are never the problem
Standing Hades??
Gotta get some hades workouts
DDR pad hades time
lol
I would do it
I appreciate the consistency
I don't have a DDR pad though
if call% is possible anything is
Peekingboo is insane
But basically for now I do 30 mins then rest at leat an hour between
Physical therapist suggestion
Smart
Sometimes I do 45 if I feel frisky
But thatās rare
I feel myself tightening before then
I had to quit JRPGs lmao
Because 30 mins doesnāt accomplish anything there lol
Octopath traveler would take you a year
It legit would
A year would be a fast pace I think
If I liked the game and wanted to finish all characters lol
I donāt have it because it was like 40 bucks and I knew it wasnāt the game for me at this time
But I bet itās very good
I didnāt realize how much I hated convenience fee till recently
At 16 it felt free lol
Or almost
CF is not free
I know that now
you lose quite a few boons with it
the first is harder than the second I think
Don't ask beo players about cf
^
nah I use CF
lmao
same
it's still bad though
^
I totally agree that CF sucks and is surprisingly impactful
It feels free at 16 and it's really punishing beyond that
using it just means we fully appreciate how bad of an idea it is on beo
Why do so many people like beo
beo is fun
and a good high heat weapon
I like it a lot too

It is probably the most unique playstyle out of all the aspects
no pseudo
I did beo for 16
It's really, really different

i like beo because its weird and does big numbers
But I have no idea for 32 lol
that's my entire reasoning
Yeah
itās a very fun weapon tho and when u get a full build, nothing else in the game compared to its power
Yep
Fair enough will do
and aspect dependent imo
But yeah for my vods Iāll look at where I got hit and how
FO1 HL5 is easier I think but I haven't done either in a long time
At a certain point it's "where do you think you have the skill to deal with a less forgiving game"
Iāll focus on dodging and worry about time when I actually turn on TD3
Or what I feel like learning first
Is it just max both now
Even for Arthur?
but I don't play arthur
i maxed both for Arthur at 40
There's no hard and fast rules for this game
People take dramatically different pacts based on what they play and what they're good at
here's the secret: if 40 heat is doable, every subset of that 40 heat is too
I either max both or Iām speedrunning LUL
so lots of pacts are fine
You can build some really crap pacts that are obviously subpar
But peach could probs clear them anyway
the prophet of Arthur
is Peach ever gonna do Arthur 50
oh fair
it's tough
heās gotten close I think
i can believe it
but it is indeed quite tough
yeah he's gotten to styx a few times I think
Time to do a practice run
I know he was streaming attempts when the barrel roll was at 50
Conditions:
(1) To barrel-roll, submit a run that is one Heat higher than the previous submission OR a run with a faster clear time that's on the same Heat as the previous submission.
(2) The very first run submission must be at 0 Heat.
(3) God Mode is not allowed for this particular challenge.
(4) You may submit multiple runs, but you cannot barrel-roll your own runs.
(5) You may submit runs that were completed up to 24h before the previous submission was submitted.
(6) Runs before February 1, 2020 are not eligible.
Some weapons have some pretty major pain points that limit the heat progression
currently it's at 53 I think
Like it's real hard to take RI on Beo
I want to do one, but redoing 54 heat seems like a waste
And for arthur DC2 is just a nightmare
So @shy plinth when I see my vods now I should think about how I felt and what I got hit by?
DC on hestia :(
so I want someone to do 54 so I can do 55
Yeah that's subpar too
DC on Hestia just no
@unique zephyr I'd see if you can identify your panic states and what caused them
if you do 55 beo with be tied for 4th highest aspect
But yeah I mean just figure out where you didn't like what you did and where you would want to do something different
If you attack and whiff that's probably just as bad as getting hit
Because dead enemies can't kill you
I sometimes feel the auto aim messes with me
But I will probably do worse if I turn it off
That is true yeah that whiffing is a huge mistake
I also have a recovery animation in addition to enemies existing longer
next time tail streams I'll try to trick him into doing 54 heat I guess
I just finished a run and posted a vod with it
luckily zeus shield can still work well without maxing it out
eh it can
you just need to use like zeus special
but maxing it out is big damage
That is what I did lol
Oh sweet Iāll try it out then
but itās not completely useless at lower levels
Maybe my next practice
Yeah at max you can make thicc heart rends
I have plenty of bounties at least
I was gonna say ālike chironā but chiron is actually worthless at all levels
it goes from 8 to 32 per tick
32 per tic? Awesome
level 1 chiron
maybe 30
chiron
But neither do damage
100%
but it's big
chaos gets charged shot
chaos is a shield
and gets charged shot yeah
Hard to beat baby guan yu
lv 1 chiron is the same as lv 5 chiron I don't get it
Lmao
Nah max level chiron is called "rama"
no max level chiron is called pure sadness
dad died to a hangover tick crit of 1221
woah
shame the earring wasn't up for that
i was gonna complain that there's no splitting bolt
but i will accept a 1221 damage hangover crit instead
i love earring
earring with 8 mins left to flex
WHAT
WAIT false alarm i'm too tired
the crit was maim
but hangover crits happening were like almost 500
You must have had bad influence permanently active
why does rail special feel weird to aim on controller
94% jeez
i miss it a lot
Lmao. I was about to say. You can get those numbers with Dio call though
i never aim it
with hestia though i mostly use attack anyway
yeah rail special I've heard is weird on controller
you should use special though yeah
yeah how do ya'll play like eris and lucy on controller
I don't play lucy
where special aim is super important
You press the x button and the special goes where it goes
i s till have lucy at level 1
just press it
lmao
rail special is tuff, I just let auto aim do itās thing
let the bomb decide
i think luci good
Yeah I just smack it and go about my business
just press it and hope lmao
the special is a lot of damage
imagine aiming rail special with croven binds
luci is quite fun
You just do? It takes some practice to quickly get the reticles to go where you want yeah.
it just goes
Triple bomb on lucy is crazy
itās the same as controller tbh pseudo
I donāt have any more control over it now that I have a controller
I would assume all of the rails are
http://puu.sh/Hl7vd/dba1903e50.jpg dad upset about these hangover numbers
Oh man that's like a fireball shots hangover
It doesn't take much with a crit. He had base 60 hangover 5 stacks
could it possibly be the peer pressure glitch?
didn't take peer pressure
ledger i was thinking more about the 73 damage single tick
what's this peer pressure glitch?
if peer pressure is the only stack on an enemy
it does 8x what it says on the tooltip
Lmao
wth
I didn't know that.
that's random lol
yuh
Peer pressure meta
i think that might have been a tick from right before the stack count dropped
so the number for more stacks is there but the stack number updated after that showed up
Did you have a chaos boon or whatever
I'm trying to do the math and that number seems very large
i mean, there aren't any chaos boons that increase hangover
Oh right
I was thinking cast damage
So yeah if a base hangover tick was 60 damage
How did we increase that 9 times over
like i said, pretty sure the damage number is not from a single hangover stack
A critical is triple so 180, even if bad influence is active that's just 180 * 1.94 = 349
So mabe it just accumulates
it's just the damage that appeared right before stacks dropped
low tol?
I'm going by the calc on the wiki
Base * (1+crit) * (1*reg +dmg)
Minus damage reduction
Order should be irrel
yeah that's what i'm saying
and FF
but im assuming mr fox here is RI2 gaming
The bonus damage is multiplicative and not added to reg damage?
And yeah FF would be +25% in the reg damage I think
ah ok let me check
I'd assume bad influence is additive
yeah it is
60 * 3 for crit * (1 + 0.94 + 0.20 + 0.70)
That's the equation right
Order is irrel
here the global damage mods to consider are FF, Bad influence, and possibly ruthless reflex proc
he hasn't got a full god pool
ah yeah, ruthless was happening frequently
FF's only doing +20% here
Ah ruthless is probs the thing
god im such a nerd
i mean, sure if you put it in brackets like a smart person
close enough
Yeah that makes 547 plausible
yeah 511 gets you there really
Also that's a lot of purple damage
numbers aren't exact if you do the math in this game
i assume there's rounding going on somewhere
nah probbaly just forgetting about some random boon he has
like strong drink or something
i've seen my numbers be randomly off by a small amount when i've had really simplistic builds
there's definitely rounding or something somewhere

Gotta be bouldy
bouldy can't grant bonus hangover damage lol

but yeah its him for sure
Bouldy believes

That was the ambiguity bonus all along
Also it's possible the game just threw Tail a bone for finishing the run with after party
Did you reroll for it
If you're looking for that boon you must leave no stone unturned
yes hermes gave me garbage
you had the wrong cast as well

get black out on this
lol
Yeah let's be realistic
so for the bullet hell attacks like witches circle and yellow lernie shooting stuff is it better to dodge or to try to break the projectiles?
assuming no easy deflect
also I finally found the zeus legendary, it was a fated list lol
it depends
if there is a clearing in the bullets, dashes are better to get there
but if there is no clearing you need to attack
it also depends on the weapon
for rama is special good to clear it with
it's what i use
but i want to make sure I hve the right idea
I don't know
what would it be for beo
I mess it up when I try that a decent amound
I actually am interested in learning beo
because the other shields seem boring other than zeus
for beo I typically try to just bull rush in
which is at level 3
beo is max
in terms of blood
does beo need any special consideration for pacts?
you did say it hates CF
for 32 avoid CF yeah
For my hypothetical pact what would be good instead of CF
but other than that pretty standard
Hard labor 2
Lasting Consequences 4
Convenience Fee 2
Extreme Measures 3
Middle Management
Underworld Customs
Benefits Package 2
Forced Overtime 2
Tight Deadline 2
I need to look at a pact to think real quick
let me pull up hades
and you hate td3
yes
so I'll make a td2 one
nice
is aphro cast the best start
for beo
i normally like aphro or dio cast for beo
but i dont know much about beo lol
I would start pos cast
then go arty attack -> mirage shot
athena is good because it's high heat
and dem is fantastic
dem cast???
snow burst is great, and rav will is quite good
Poseidon cast is good bc of easy lead into mirage and poggers aoe
good damage too, not the best but good enough
either is fine
legacy is more consistent for mirage, but pride is just generally good
I tend to do pride, but I go either way
ah ok, are you figuring out pact now
Sounds good
idk I would usually just do td3 instead of JS2
or FO2
but those might be harder for you
yeah TD2 timer is basically free
especially with pos cast
if you lose TD2 it's not because of JS
nah if you lose this td2 it will 100% be because of js haha
js is quite slow
it loses several mins
not 8, but several
I'm getting more and more used to FO2
looking at a vod I've gotten much better at dodging than before
overall
I'm learning I think
so by doing JS2 instead of td3, you trade harder normal rooms for ~5 extra mins (assuming JS2 loses you 3 mins)
yeah that's why people do it for speedruns
btw someone told me if I die at furies I have a long road ahead of me but I feel like that happens at high heat sometimes
because I die in all kinds of random places
no you're fine
I die in tart all the time
most of my deaths are tart tbh
hardest biome
they only say that because they are thinking DDs probably
yeah nah furies are rough at high heat
if you die in tart with DDs you have a long way to go haha
important thing to know for beo is you can load your casts during the charge
wanted a truly off the rails zeus dash gilga so https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/654076105321480226/815855164383952917/20210301015641_1.jpg
most satisfying thing on earth to dash around and just effortlessly have these numbers pop up constantly http://puu.sh/Hl83U/fff80615bc.jpg
This, High heat and EM makes furies a tough job
That is a Zeus build alright
Nah I use SD now because LC4
Even on practice SD now
oh I know
I'm just saying why I think they believe that
they probably use DDs, and so never die in tart
Ah ok makes a lot of sense now haha
Hestia is worse than sniping, it's having a rifle with only one chamber that matters
of my last 10 runs (not counting resets, various weapons, all 50+ heat), 6 died in tartarus, 1 died in asphodel, 2 died in styx, and 1 was a victory
so don't feel bad about dying to meg from time to time haha
if you count resets way more died in tart haha
2 died in styx and none in elysium?
interesting
I feel like every time I enter styx I exit it
well I guess barring TD3 and a 3+ sack which mightāve happened
so nvm then
one was em4 death with ares cast beo
the other was dad fight choke with 50 heat nem
usually I die more in elysium, just variance of last 10
oh you include dad fight in styx
oh yeah
that makes a lot more sense
I don't die in styx tunnels
yeah I was a bit confused
I think I could beat styx with 0 mins tbh
like could win through 5 dps from timer
maybe not normal rooms
just to see how far I could go
oh yea those r annoying
usually when I see those I instantly just let myself die
bc I hate doing them
so much
but a 3 sack with 0s? shouldn't be too bad
ye esp since you can just reset SD in front of a door whenever u want
speaking of things like this
I think one of the most impressive challenges haelās done was this but for the whole run
that was p cool
after party stonks
it finally did something
over 1000 pushups were added from that run alone iirc
Man getting to 40 heat will take a llooooong time
Do you guys only farm on weapon
Or let the thirst guide
You can farm bounties in the range of 20 (no bounties afer) if you like. Most of the time people will jump from 20 to 32 and then to40
Hm
Maybe after I finish farming 25000 darkness
I'll rush bow or malphon to 40
Probably Malhpon
Gilgamesh aspect is still on of the most fun
made it to hades on 45 but twin shot+explosive shot rama made the fight waaaay too hard for me :(
I somehow cannot like short range hammers on bow
it was fine up till then but fo2 hades just destroyed me for having a longer windup move
The only time I went for s short range build was with triple shot and explosive
At that point I was melee
yeah thats what it does
50 is a handful
"build" is a mood lol
its funny how when you start playing this game you just use random boons, then slowly you start making better and better builds until you're using the best ones in the game, and then when you hit 50+ its just like "oh i got the second worst attack boon for my aspect, lets go this is the run"
"shackle is a build right"
not sure if I wanna push up to 50 now it seems messed up
yeah ap gave me awful hammers
perfect is pretty good
but sniper is a joke yeah
especially on rama
45 to 50 is definitely a massive increase in difficulty
gonna upload the run
I got super sloppy at hades last phase but I stopped caring bc I saw how much health I had
super lucky to get 2 sack otherwise it would have been rough
I wasted a lot of time in elysium
50 heat runners : "With this rare boon, maybe I can finish this run"
Any heat runners : "If I had this boon to my full pockets I would save so much seconds"

"With this rare boon, maybe I can finish the run"
the rare boon: common flood flare

on High heat triple shot is better than twin shot for Rama right?
I like twin shot more its more dmg
Ah
i see
btw Chiron with Artemis special is better than using Dio special?
or it depends?
I would say it's different dps
I mean isn't Chiron is all about damage? which one would do more?
With dio you can shoot an ennemy then you can go directly to another one because you know the poison will do its job
i personally liked dio chiron more for the room control on higher heat
Artemis dps is higher when crit
though heartrend chiron shreds bosses and single enemies
ah
for dio, you want curse of nausea (ares), low tolerance (aphro) and maybe splitting headache (artemis)
for arty, you just want heartrend
so generally speaking Arty would usually more reliable since less duos to care about?
If you're talking about high high heat, most of the time with RI1 we don't have the luxuary of the additionnal chances for duos š
Artemis can have a snowball dps if after the special you find support fire or hunter's mark
so yeah i'll take Arty tks boiz
Dio deals poison damages, but the rest of his boons is also about control and support
Artemis has a really offensive set if you gather them all
3
With no rolls a core boon on AP2 is 1/4
you play the game enough these things are bound to happen
Iāve seen people use coin purse in high heat. When is it used and why?
Iāve seen it as a tartarus start
Coin Purse is used only in Tartarus start for extra money in order to get to shops easier
What do people buy in shops? Mostly boons or centaur hearts too?
Usually I donāt have enough money to get both with CF on
Also nice job finishing 32 x 6 poke
yeah
Thatās my current goal
thanks!
Boons probably
One message removed from a suspended account.
HP is generally easier to get (cheaper than boons on shops, Thanatos, etc.)
yeah, on high heat, HP is always top priority
it's partially why Aphro is so powerful
thanks to Life Affirmation
I would say it depends of the aspect
Tart and aspho are usually used to gather the build then elysium is hammers/hp rush
Shout out to elite styx heart doors
all my homies love elite styx heart doors
I sometimes pick purse in asphodel to buy a boon but
forcing athena turned out better for me in the long run
Hypnos purse means your dps is good enough to stand the first rooms, it's a risky bet at high heat
We tend to have a god item in order to manipulate the RNG : At least this god will keep me company during the run, I know I'll see their other boons later
I'll take purse in Asp if I saw Athena in tart
Beat FO2 hades without Divine Dash, getting better š
Nice!
Lol that's actually the #1 takeaway from doing 24x40 I've gotten. I've memed so many runs with Tidal Dash that I know for certain I don't need Divine Dash to win runs anymore
Came back with a vengeance I see
Yeah DF is a godsend because faster hammer = good. And boons for UC selling.
Anyhow, happy for ya.
whats ur pb
I used Artemis dash for the dash strike goodness with Rama
i just saw it and picked it up
46 š³ I pre one-up ya.
damn
hunter's dash probably works the best with bow
it can also go well with serrated edge or maybe fists
shackle basically is cheating in tartarus, but later on the enemies can cheat harder
FIST
i usually force athena but im happy to see any athena core boon really, esp on AP2
any dash boon is honestly a godsend on 50
since it doesnt break shackle
and helps a ton with DC
also buying poms and centaur hearts is a big big scam on CF2
poms esp on AP2
It costs so much
if only you could sell centaur hearts :^)
price of midas
yeah lol
You can sell two hearts for a spear
weirdly enough
i dont like buying centaur hearts
but will almost always buy centaur souls
brain machine broke
it's probably the over/under 200 gold
ye if i had to guess
:psychiatry:
2 attempts made it to Dad today!
or else
wait
In about an hour or so I'll probably start streaming meme Zagius runs. We'll see if we can prove how much luck is needed to compensate for 0 skill.
Well to be fair I think I demonstrated the luck hard carry yesterday
Have you checked the pins ?
rama is fun
Iād say Rama
hm, thats a lot of pins
I will give an alternate opinion to Rama and say "not gilga"
Rama is definitely top like 3 aspects at high heat
although anything can preform well at 32
I really like Rama and I played too much Arthur last week
Dont try gilgamesh
but I'm not mad enough to try Gilga at 40
for your first 32
evntually I will
sure thats fine
Star Trek references compels me
Gilga was my first 32 and I do not recommend it lol
I need an off work day for 40 and 32
That's a bold choice. Must have given yourself a much harder impression of high heat than you should have gotten lol.
It was AP1 Gilga
Got proc blocked on ME 3 times
So yes I thought 32 was way harder than it actually is lol
Gilga is my most used weapon I think, I do enjoy it quite a bit... but it's not the best
Meanwhile I did a zeus run yesterday and cleared without popping SD despite not having played the weapon in months
The more you know
Good news is I can play for longer at a time next week (1 hour) if physical therapy progresses
word
what would be a good 32 for beo
EM2 DC2 RI3
CF2, pain
pacts at 32 are still flexible so if youāre fine with FO, you can trade CF2 for FO1 or something like that
alrighty then
^^^
@bright mango strimming
I wasn't comfortable with fo2 at the time so I took it
epic
In trying to be careful I play so slowly TD2 becomes a problem now :/
It's hard to play fast AND not get hit
And then I got hit and died, time was out already when I died though
I wonder if doing a run low heat where I just go as fast as I can with no regards to anything else can improve my overall speed
yeah i think it was bright who said high heat has an interesting balance of aggression and safety
which i do agree with
I just don't know how to meet that balance really
I thought I had a good run going too
I want to be good enough so 32 will be easier for me but I know that will just take time
How do I dodge seeker witches consistently?
get divine dash
this is chamber 4
I took a lot of damage
For all you 40+ heat runners did many of you never think that you'd do 32 consistently?
just could use encouragement lol I guess, I am doing my best but still, I still don't really know how to learn from vods
since everything is fast
32 heat rama feels far off right now š¦
hope people don't mind me venting about how far I am from where I want my skill to be, this is the channel to vent too I assume
It's such an improvement on old high heat where there was no TD
So it was all safety and taking a million years
Partly also because of +500% hard labor equivalent
honestly taht sounds like such a slog to watch and play
It was
My 153 heat pre pact rework record was like 45 mins, and that was before styx was even added lmao
heat used to be counted differently
Tailesque is just crazy with it
did it go to 160?
He exceeds the pact
he actually stacked like 4 pacts on top of each other
Mans is using EM8
MaN
Can someone watch my lernie fights and EM3 fights sometime when I make a video just of those
I have trouble with those
FO2 lernie surprisingly hard
it is only hard due to Lava
FO2 bosses don't mess around
I just need to be mindful of head slam lol
what's wrong with Fallout 2
Same as the Witches Circle - it isn't that hard - the lava is hard
Personally wasn't a fan and it didn't live up to the hype
you always get better
@quartz mantle don't make me hurt your feelings
