You couldnt download it off src?
I don’t really know anything about switch cross saves so I cant help there ig
I decided that I don’t have the mental energy to figure that out. Too much moving things around in my files for one day
Always stresses me out so much because if I do something wrong I’ll have no idea how to fix it
Do you want me to simplify it for you or just gonna do it the other way
I’ll just try to do it the other way for now
If it’s really not working I’ll use the SRC file
Ok actually I’m gonna take you up on this offer because it’s just not working 
Have you like downloaded anything off src yet
I downloaded the “max save with no run history” by ellomenop, is that the right one?
Yup
Unzip the file
Where should I unzip it to
Just unzip it to your desktop for example, you’re gonna copy the file anyway, there should be a ProfileX.sav in there
Copy that file and go to
Documents/ Saved Games/ Hades
Paste the file and rename it to Profile1.sav or whatever number depending on the slot you want it to take
And you should be set
What if there’s saved data already
There could be, are all your save slots full?
There you go
Np
If you want to make savestates this is also the same file that you copy
Damn it’s definitely laggy
There is a section in #h1-tech-fixes that might be worth checking out
For performance issues
Zag moves like he’s in a Twitter fan cam. Normal speed, slow mo, normal speed, repeat
But the in game timer is ticking at a completely steady pace
I think
Actually it’s hard to be sure
Man I hate computers (specifically my computer because it is not good, but also computers in general because they are a million times more complicated than just playing a game on console)
Ngl sounds like it’s gonna be just a tiny bit hard to record for leaderboards 
Forget that, it’s not even really playable. Either I fix this or I don’t play
I just realized how much time I spent on this crap today just for it to not even be playable 
Well I’ll try to fix it tomorrow I guess
Starting to question whether this is worth it because idk how much I’m even gonna play on my computer because it sucks
I just wanted to play high heat zag shield 
should probably ask about this in #h1-tech-fixes
@undone tartan
/UseSwapEffectDiscard=true /DrawBlendMax=2 /DrawLights=false /UseAnalytics=false /AutoDetectLowResAssets=true /UseLowResAssets=true /DrawBloom=false /DrawColorGrading=false
copy paste this into launch options if ur on steam
it helps with the lag
now im the only person playing unmodded 😔
Pancake enjoying modded at 10 fps rn

casually claiming WRs at 10fps?
apologies for frame drops, no audio, and frequent pausing, i play on a potato
this was: a run
run starts at 4:04
heres a really old one
his old beo wr was also like this but a little better
omg thats awful
i can count the frames
idk go ask him
The beo wr video comment section is just croven explaining why is he pausing so much 
I will try this later, thank you
hi
Unmodded gang
👍 hopefully it helps
unmodded gang 😔
Unmodded gang 💪

You dont really need one but Ferocious Guard / Sudden Rush and Breaching Rush are all good ones if you dont want Cshot
Cshot can be risky with EM4
Since no bullrush
sudden rush sounds nice
love ferocious guard though
Pstatus also very nice to take on the mirror
check
If you want to learn it/ are already good at it you can take RR
It's good
I found myself not Dashing as much to dodge attacks but moreso to reposition so I feel like it barely procs
In EM4 specifically
Might just be me tho
Also got used to 2 dashes since I stopped running high heat a while ago
I think you should get back your darkness using 1 key and keep that one unupgraded

no way man I need my keys for nectar
Also if you think you're not that good at EM4 yet, right before you enter the fight, if you have a solid build you can copy the save file so you can practice that fight over and over
Might be worth watching some top players too
so far just seems like 40 heat except traps are annoying
famous last words
I'm getting mutilated but this is fun
got just passion flare as only boon and no hermes, ambrosia or nectar?
on AP1 so no chance of forced swap
also have 3 keys
Idk why but that pic isnt loading for me
ugh I hate this no images rule
It depends a bit on the level of the cast, but Poms on high heat Beo are almost always good value
You can take poms, they're a fine pick, Nectar is also solid since Snow burst rarity is big and +3 dashes from Hermes is very nice
Yea your cast level is fine so it's a valid take
Try to just get your pstatus and save the rest for wells if you want
Because your only other forms of scaling would be Chaos or RD, and AP1 is painful yknow
Not that wells are guaranteed to give you something, but I like them more because you usually get to see more well menus
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/676266365123952689/975485985972449350/unknown.png so should I just take attack
I would take it
not worth rolls
It's your pstatus
in case u get cucked by selling
You dont really need Snow burst specifically
gimme that sudden rush baby
Hmm, this is RC3, so it's still a release candidate, not a fully stable version, things like that can happen
It's also not leaderboard legal for what it's worth
Try to fill some cores while still pomming your cast if you can
yeah play the one thats leaderboard legal
Any attack that gives you pstatus is solid
And things like Zeus Athena Dio call are all very good
k where do I find it
thanks chief
ok so post mortem I've learned that the infernal bomb curse is horrific in tartarus
and that it seems like an instant death unless you're on beo
It can be tricky
i usually dont have problems with it
prob bc i play hestia
and normal dash a lot and keep a range
Less time loss when using sd to heal 
here goes lernie
I have no experience with lernie HS
this is gonna be awful
and done
holy adrenaline
It’s an okay pick
For safety during the heroes fight it’s definitely the strongest
If you’re scared of dying to normal rooms -> Tooth
Scared of Heroes -> Acorn
The well is strong -> hourglass
And yea going for Mirage is probably solid too
god damn tiny chariot spam
thanks chief
god dammit I forgot to kill myself on athena
throwing
she offered dd too :(
Ouch
throwing again
last chamber before shop on patty forgot to kill myself again
8 hp
I'm so trash
please don't murder me asterius
You also can be unlucky and fail to proc sd before the sack
Vengeance 
ok sorry I'm being a cheater and reloading elysium boss
I can't hit the damn meg lmao
In my case the trap hitted it
thats looking juicy
acorn time?
What curse is that
tooth
worst one, can't use special
Acorn can easily be destroyed
yeah tooth
But also not
I have athena in pool so chance of DD
Acorn is more of a gamble
bc em4 spawns hella stuff right
Il gamble on good summons
Acorn too good if it actually blocks a dad hit
wait does patty effect tooth
As someome with-
No
o hm
Take hourglass 
bro if I die because I threw earlier I'm gonna be depressed
This is why I would hourglass
Into Elysium
this is the highest roll run I'm ever gonna get
Because of that well
I mean sometimes it doesn’t pay off 
oh u can buy from well and then switch off hourglass in the same room
doubt
It’s ballsy
EM4 cshot rough
Your damage is gud just go safe
You don’t need them but obv they would’ve been nice
wait holy
Acorn or tooth up to you, I usually Acorn a lot more on Beowulf
wait can I cheat by anvilling cshot
mirage shot and aphro cast
No guarantees
yeah holy high roll
my other hammer is some stupid special thing
so it would only cost me cash
then do it
Worth the try tbh
theres no downgrades with hammers right?
Not like it can brick you like other weapons lmao
u have passion flare mirage shot
Counterpoint: em4
Wrong reply
Bleh
sorry I know I'm being needy buthttps://media.discordapp.net/attachments/676266365123952689/975497881882619974/unknown.png?width=705&height=397
shop has poseidon and heart
I'm thinking athena then heart
u have mods for 2 sac right?
athena first risky bc its a room
Is that 4 mins left?
8
8
.5
I have a key for it
maybe heart first?
nah
I would probably Pom into Heart here
u cant get dd
ok I see
Can bleed all your time too
I'll athena then to play it safer
Tho once again passion + mirage is a lot of dmg
hopefully u get an easy room
please please please remind me to kill myself
||I hate to break it for you but the run hasnt started yet
||
EM4 on Beo is pretty fun
Just dont do a high heat™ moment
On some other weapons is just so rough tho
but to me it seems like it
Aka "proc sd when you dont have it"
lmao
i did that once
lucky it wasnt too into the run
yeah def
My first 40 heat died to aspho in the best way
dd 🙏🙏
o
Sure footing
Tried to pick reward, instead went fishing in lava
sure footing seems tempting
So you don't die to a pot
I feel pretty confident vs pots tbh
Oh wait is this first tunnel
yes
cuz rolling doesnt mean u get dd
Roll it
o
Roll and then get dd crossed out
lmao
Lmao
here we go
punished?
time to jump off a cliff
special, riposte, AP1 DD
🗿

god dammit
run still alive
I told you
oh nahh
Prediction god
Get ap'd
Your timer is fine so you just have to play well
riposte?
And you have pat
heart time?
I think mirage makes up for my lvl4 cast
Wait did you take non miniboss first tunnel
yeah he gambled for dd
Nice
Stop discording 🔫
you are gonna get cursed
yeah I'm big moron
Already got cursed
pom picked up
Didn't get dd
I have enough for poseidon heart or pom
u actually playing it risky
sorry meant heart
oh alr
I'm also tempted to take pom room
Can still be cursed for em4 summons
because I'm stupid
Take the big heart
i would go heart room, but im also bad at the game so idk whats best
wait sorry misunderstandings
Damage pretty good already
my rooms were athena no DD then big heart
the other big room is pom
I have enough cash for pom or poseidon heart
go hades
I have 6:40 left
uhhh
Just go to dad
yes
idk if worth gambling for it
You are barely generating call with beo
true
so you vote big pom
Unless you eat a big hit to the face lol
what can pom give u
Levels
pom on attack wouldnt be bad bc cahot
yep lvl1 artemis
pom on cast would be 🙏🙏
god I can't believe I threw with earlier athena
most free DD of my life
ok taking pom
dash and blinding flash
k
lmao
wth is even blinding flash
time to get clapped
gl 🙏
+backstab dmg
u got this
thanks chief
I'm almost tempted to record
After hitting enemy with deflecting abilities
nah dont
k
might make ur game lag or smth
Can be worth if you want someone to review
well yeah
Just get parting shot on beo 
so far so good, acorn full and onto first summon phase
i forgot not everyone has dogwater pc
demeter is so clutch man
bro get off rn
and just play
Bro discording mid fight
lmao
It’s ok this run is already 2 hours rta
lmfaoo
sorry pausing again
first phase down, full health, 2 acorn
missed the meg because I'm insane at this game
dont pause
Lucky summons at least
Goated summons
My first attemot at 45 got triple B.ball lmao
lmfao
Nice
dog’d
Did you take the full 200 damage
dead?
almost ended phase 2
Sick
Wait where did you stood to dodge dog
I was in bottom corner but shielded up the moment before
was being launched across the room
then he speared me through shield for 100 damage
bruh
Nice
Something something block reliable
why did I roll that sure footing
what heat are you playing
my first 50 attempt
😩 bc dd
god that was the most highroll run of all time
idk i feel like pausing mid room/mid boss is rlly bad unless u need a breather
it ruins ur flow
maybe thats just me tho
Yeah you got the discord curse
lesson learned
unless ur about to get a heart attack pausing is 😩
discord trolling me and vid wont play
Follow the link ig
Sadge
time for RI2?
instead em4?
or maybe just hope for fixed hammer to actually work lol
If it works can i convert you to zag shield 
I refuse
RI2 instead em4 means u get a lot less boons and the boons u have r worse, so rooms and heros r much harder
RI2 rough on Beo
but it also means once u reach styx, ur run is basically done
Also less poms
Less poms too overall
unless u choke like me 
well time for another attempt
first room chaos, rolled for can't collect stones but get +stone
went one room before realizing how dumb that was

I'm not used to dying to furies
bruh I had a great run going entering fury and game crashed
I rerolled and it went back to 3 with AP1 active
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/676266365123952689/975510189446922240/unknown.png?width=705&height=397 ok this is getting really weird
You arent quitting out right?
nope
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/676266365123952689/975514398758174810/unknown.png?width=705&height=391 ok this is getting ridiculous
god run into hades and now this
what the hell am I supposed to do
Best to ask in the Speedrun discord or modding server because your modpack is acting weird in general
just get the legal mod pack
This is the one
o uh
But it's still not working properly
frankly I'm not as upset as I feel like I should be
I think 50 heat is almost consistent for me on beo
nothing like losing your tooth in the first encounter in asphodel because heightened security is a lot of damage and you have 60 max hp
Me when I don’t take any health on RI2
The legendary Talos 50 ft. EM4
Astaos the legendary french high heater 👀 ✨
That run was 
4 options 
I'm thinking about it
what if I run AP2 and some random heat somewhere else instead of EM4
that gives me cshot
and I've never had issues with TD3 even on 50
td3 is free heat
Yeah you can do that
I'll never get any boon I want
but maybe epic decent level passion flare is all you need
FF better for AP2?
I feel like even FF is hard to build up at 50
often had like two boons leaving asphodel
spicy
whats ur pact?
DC1 probably
DC1 isn’t that bad tbh
Yee
there should be a way to avoid dc1
I feel like I could handle CP2
wait r u running any amounts of RI?
Beo damage is good, I did CP2 for my first 50 but honestly I don’t like it
I can't stand OF simulator
oh ok nvm then yeah dc1
Like if I were to redo it I’d take DC1
I mean just try it
If CP2 isn’t giving you issues then why not
Yea
holy
Looks about right
get that nasty crap out of my face
what does beo lose?
Poms
FF/PS
I was reaching dad in like 16min consistently though
beo seems to have just about 0 issues with JS which is awesome
lmao wish I could just start running 50 with a trackpad
Will probably have a bit here with DC1
oh well
But again, shouldnt be too tight
Just reset for some poms out of Tart
And that’s it
nectar chamber 2 is broken tbh
prioritize hearts and poms over boons so that poms and slices are consistent
then pick up something near the end to feed UC
game plan?
Well miniboss
reset until demeter miniboss smh
oh and I assume taking demeter is still worth into asphodel if she's already in pool
just to force
Can be
earring is a nice idea
earring is weird on sd tho no?
No
earring is best on SD I assume lol
it’s perfect on SD
oh
Because SD heals you just enough to proc it
i thought there was a bug
So you’re always within SD range into Asphodel
what's max earring +%?
I mean earring
Its 40%
wow who needs PS smh
it was patched long ago. Not really a bug, but you needed to be below 30%
so you had to lose SD + take dmg to make earring active
yeah that was awful
yeah it seems like it
i got deathless stand 50 heat ap2 but i didn't use my sd
😔 happens to the best of us
i got to the last 10% of dad's second phase and i died
i just can't
such great rng and i lost it
em4?
i lost all my acorn charges because hades spawned the stupid bow enemies who shot me over and over
if em3 then rip
em3, 50 heat
damn
why aren't i able to block the skull-skull-spear lunge attack that he does
i somehow get both boiling blood and that 63 damage from the lunge even though my shield's up the whole time
how does that work
Block is like that
i tried doing it twice and both times that happened
the second time was the time that killed me
also hs off makes for way easier runs lmfao
hs?
oh hell
cf2
Wait what's your pact
Kinda confused on why you would take cf2 when you could do cf1 hs
that's what i was doing, i turned it off for this run to see what'd happen and i made it to hades
And yeah js1 50 kinda interesting
oh wait hs is heightened im dumb 
when i hadn't been able to beat heroes before
yeah i entered hades fight at like 15 minutes i can probably turn on js2
Damn don't you hate it when you die to a trap in the heroes fight
i would go js2 and hs instead of PL and CP1
well i got three runs that got to heroes before i turned of hs
cp is just 
i died to lernie nearly every time
Nah you should def do hell mode at 50
rlly?
Yeah at 50
hm
Isn't this zag shield? Don't you use standing strikes so you won't be in the lava that much?
yes
it's the stupid wave things that knock you back a million miles
and i'm still not quite used to no dash at cursor
so when that happens i kinda just
die
Breh
I only did it non hell mode cuz laziness to import a hell mode save from pc to my switch lol
modded 
Cant use the built in swap on switch 
i have no idea how (or why) anyone would do 50 heat unmodded
but then again my build needs a hammer for it to work so idk
Hey
I think I've done it on 5 aspects
wow
Two of them were on shield so kinda cheating
Wait no 4 aspects
Not as good as I thought 😔

Not as bad as the people cheating using mods
||talking about damue||
Also he speedrunning modpack
He
The
AAAAAAAAAA

I'm a pro at keyboard
Proof
Here's me using the keyboard
Can't see it but I was typing using the duhvohrack keyboard layout
wow, you really are pro at keyboard
Yeah I know
wow !
wow !
This may sound like a purist but I speedrun since 2016 so I play unseeded/unmodded because it's a natural habit to me: Taking any game the way it is and working on it without modifying anything
(3 clears at 50 Heat, 1 at 53 Heat)
pro at keyboard confirmed
It's a very fun way to learn the game again. For example, I beat Lernie with Guan Yu, 40 HP total, no charged skewer.
50 heat forced me to refine my skills and to get the best out of my boons. Also, adaptation
Lernie is such a well thought fight when you think about it
You can miss a lot playing modded at that heat
Yea I started playing unmodded Rama because playing modded felt like it took away one of Rama’s best features which was its hammer flexibility
I know you're right but after several 50 heat attempts that lernie ended last night I'll temporarily disagree with you on emotional grounds
EM Lernie is all about space allocation and quick thinking
The more I do it the more I do enjoy it
At least on weapons that aren’t named sword and fist
I hope I'll grow to feel the same way
for now dodging HS lava while lernie seems to randomly groundpound is a nightmare
It’s not exactly random to an extent
yeah I know
It’s an attack cycle, and yea there’s variance but it’s not unpredictable
but it still constantly catches me off guard
That comes w/ experience
I guess I can't hope to get 50 heat down in under 20 attempts
time for more grinding
lmao, I understand. Blue head red on red indicator is quite bad
bruh
40 heat ragequit?
man I even made it to EM3 dad last night with 2.5min left
but AP2 left my cast cycle doing 500 damage and I ran out of time
Feels like 2:30 mins for CP2 normal Dad with a meh build is a good estimate at 50
was DC1 CP1, I'm just really bad
dw, just feels like the right margin. You will get it 
no cf??
Did you even read my nickname
oh 
CF does not exist
cf0 is so comfy
is it idiotic to consider running authority with AP2 to roll into nectar
I also feel like boon rolling is really weak with AP2
Yes
:(
You still want to avoid replaces/bad purging options
@jaunty falcon stop playing btd6 and tell us about them
oh well pinging him is fun regardless
I used authority for my gy 40
And ended up getting ME in tart anyway lmao
But yknow what’s better
Muddy puddles chimps with really big bomb spam
begone btd6 player
ok
average geraldo spammer
Average rof enjoyer
icy flare is a trash beo option because it's a ring of ice
Ok I agree with that
Icy flare is good tho
I got my first beo win with it
beo flare tier list when
Must be good
I tried that and died to em4
you must be a r/hades user with that argument
At 32
50 been done with all flares right?
Pseudo did it
Pseudo did it
lmao
Wow nice I didn’t kno
Except boonless flare
this is proof that all high heat players share one brain cell
I did all except slicing
And it’s not the right one
how do you even do boonless
I guess with FF you can do like 500 damage with 3 casts
Merciful end
Snow burst kinda mirage shot
Bablos first sub 7 beo was ME right
For what
Everything
64 heat
Heat is similar just with passion flare higher and some other slight adjustments
You kick puppies
god gamer
It is
Thunder can get scaling atleast
does thunder zap every enemy in range or something
Oh wait you talking about the other one
Like dstrike jolted
It zaps one enemy
Zaps one enemy
bruh
Pretty gud
With the same damage as flood flare
It zaps mosquitoes
And doesn't scale with cast damage
And no mirage
bruh
The cast does 0 damage it just summons a bolt
Random backstabs are worth tho
You’ll see that if you get a replace
Trust me
lmao just before entering dad I took a zeus boon on AP2
had a cast replace crossed out
still lost though

Nice
lesson learned regardless
yeah I didn't think about how so many items can be downgrades with this damn heat
AP2 forced me into a demeter boon which I rolled twice for rare crop that took epic passion to common
another lesson learned
on the one hand, 190 max hp out of tartarus with ri2
on the other hand, why didn't i get a hammer???
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/506234269287448577/976297132459982909/unknown.png?width=1585&height=991
wasn't even offered a hammer, it just didn't show up
chamber 20 and i still have not gotten a hammer
has the modpack glitched or something?
i am about to fight lernie, i have gotten great rng so far
but no hammer
no hammer has been offered to me in this entire run, not in shops, not as room rewards, not anything
aaand i died at lernie
why is rng like this?
i had 220 hp, got super lucky with premium vintage and erebus gates
but never once got offered a hammer
aren't they super priority? i always get offered them at the beginning of asphodel if i don't see them in tart
what are the odds of that happening
modpack doesnt guarantee hammer shows up early 
also any RI?
What do you recommend if KBM is a huge mistake? 👀
Its a meme
Someone said thats its a huge mistake to play kbm and that you have to play controller
As a pro at keyboard I can confirm that it is a huge mistake to play keyboard
🤔
KBM should be one of my next moves in the future but I don't have a comfy desk for mouse
Time to meme a little more with the heat mod
Mike 64 arc
But maybe Hades doesn't require large moves for the cursor
Can you even exit this and move on to the next room?
yes
you just leave the menu
ill just do ap0 because I want a cracked build
this is not so easy tho 
ever seen a speeder wringer with FO4
Wait did you beat 64?
this -ap3
almost got 52 yesterday
but got hit for 191 in EM4

Now add js
Does deadline become shorter
Td4 is 3 mins yes
yea
120% JS 🗿
Yooooooo
1 projectile = 61 and I dont have mirage
Is that like 500 damage per shot
Note to self : if boonless modding attempts fail, go for AP3
maybe
few frames before disaster:
Do they have like 800% movespeed
Imma need a house offset where there's no speeders and sluggers in the run 
I am
They have 80% supposedly
How much does speeder add to that
Also i cant meg doomstone

ill upload yesterday's dad fight
Dad fight
Skip a bit because I didnt cut it properly 

where LC8
