It said it uploaded just fine on my switch. But on my PC, when I open the game with steam, it still has a super old version of the file from the last time I successfully synced

#

Does anyone know what might be going wrong?

hoary pasture
#

You couldnt download it off src?

#

I don’t really know anything about switch cross saves so I cant help there ig

undone tartan
#

Always stresses me out so much because if I do something wrong I’ll have no idea how to fix it

hoary pasture
#

Do you want me to simplify it for you or just gonna do it the other way

undone tartan
#

I’ll just try to do it the other way for now

#

If it’s really not working I’ll use the SRC file

hoary pasture
#

Alright

#

Gl

undone tartan
hoary pasture
#

Have you like downloaded anything off src yet

undone tartan
#

I downloaded the “max save with no run history” by ellomenop, is that the right one?

hoary pasture
#

Yup

undone tartan
#

It saved as a zipped folder titled “ProfileX_hshp9”

#

Ok cool

hoary pasture
#

Unzip the file

undone tartan
#

Where should I unzip it to

hoary pasture
#

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

undone tartan
#

What if there’s saved data already

hoary pasture
#

There could be, are all your save slots full?

undone tartan
#

Wait it worked

#

Let’s go!

#

Thank you Mike!

hoary pasture
#

There you go

#

Np

#

If you want to make savestates this is also the same file that you copy

undone tartan
#

Damn it’s definitely laggy

hoary pasture
#

For performance issues

undone tartan
#

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)

hoary pasture
#

Ngl sounds like it’s gonna be just a tiny bit hard to record for leaderboards bouldy

undone tartan
#

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 bouldy

#

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 ron

copy paste this into launch options if ur on steam

#

it helps with the lag

Unmodded gang 💪

hoary pasture
#

Would swap that DC for JS

#

But it's fine

frozen spear
#

k

#

will try that

#

best first hammer?

hoary pasture
#

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

frozen spear
#

sudden rush sounds nice

hoary pasture
#

Yea

#

It's very nice

#

It's what I seed on modded

frozen spear
#

love ferocious guard though

hoary pasture
#

Pstatus also very nice to take on the mirror

frozen spear
#

check

hoary pasture
#

If you want to learn it/ are already good at it you can take RR

frozen spear
#

pride, PS, FP etc

#

rmacinty says RR is op for EM4

hoary pasture
#

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

frozen spear
#

it's just you

#

jk

hoary pasture
#

It's also just more mobility

#

Chasing crap in Asphodel is painful sometimes

frozen spear
#

hm boiling or abyssal

#

this is an extremely important decision

hoary pasture
#

I think you should get back your darkness using 1 key and keep that one unupgraded

frozen spear
#

no way man I need my keys for nectar

hoary pasture
#

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

frozen spear
#

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

hoary pasture
#

Idk why but that pic isnt loading for me

frozen spear
#

ugh I hate this no images rule

hoary pasture
#

It depends a bit on the level of the cast, but Poms on high heat Beo are almost always good value

frozen spear
#

whatever

#

lvl5 epic passion

#

I took nectar because I'm a hermes slave :(

hoary pasture
#

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

frozen spear
hoary pasture
#

I would take it

frozen spear
#

rip

#

finally hammer time

strong abyss
#

not worth rolls

hoary pasture
#

It's your pstatus

strong abyss
#

in case u get cucked by selling

hoary pasture
#

You dont really need Snow burst specifically

frozen spear
#

gimme that sudden rush baby

hoary pasture
#

It's just very nice

#

Can also just get it later

frozen spear
#

and then I stood in lava while considering choices and died

#

fun

hoary pasture
#

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

frozen spear
#

well that was fun

#

ok time to downgrade I guess

hoary pasture
#

Try to fill some cores while still pomming your cast if you can

strong abyss
#

yeah play the one thats leaderboard legal

hoary pasture
#

Any attack that gives you pstatus is solid

#

And things like Zeus Athena Dio call are all very good

frozen spear
#

k where do I find it

frozen spear
#

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

hoary pasture
#

It can be tricky

strong abyss
#

i usually dont have problems with it

#

prob bc i play hestia

#

and normal dash a lot and keep a range

frozen spear
#

HS isn't as scary as I thought it would be tbh

#

SD makes it much less intimidating

left prism
#

Less time loss when using sd to heal dusa

frozen spear
#

here goes lernie

#

I have no experience with lernie HS

#

this is gonna be awful

#

and done

#

holy adrenaline

hoary pasture
#

It’s an okay pick

frozen spear
#

what would you recommend instead

#

I'm on cshot

hoary pasture
#

For safety during the heroes fight it’s definitely the strongest

frozen spear
#

lol wait what if I take arty

#

try for mirage

hoary pasture
#

You can

#

You have some options

frozen spear
#

I'll highroll arty

#

let's dance

hoary pasture
#

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

frozen spear
#

what's the point of being a god if you don't live a little

#

first boon mirage

hoary pasture
#

Damage lookin gud

#

Gl with EM4

frozen spear
#

god damn tiny chariot spam

#

thanks chief

#

frozen spear
strong abyss
#

acorn maybe

#

bu

pseudo kernel
#

Acorn can easily be destroyed

strong abyss
#

yeah tooth

pseudo kernel
#

But also not

frozen spear
#

I have athena in pool so chance of DD

hoary pasture
#

Acorn is more of a gamble

strong abyss
#

bc em4 spawns hella stuff right

left prism
#

Il gamble on good summons

hoary pasture
#

But I usually take it anyway

#

Otherwise Tooth is nice

left prism
#

Acorn too good if it actually blocks a dad hit

frozen spear
#

well is offering +cast% and +stone

#

idk man

strong abyss
#

wait does patty effect tooth

left prism
hoary pasture
strong abyss
#

o hm

pseudo kernel
#

Take hourglass bouldy

frozen spear
#

bro if I die because I threw earlier I'm gonna be depressed

hoary pasture
#

Into Elysium

frozen spear
#

this is the highest roll run I'm ever gonna get

hoary pasture
#

Because of that well

frozen spear
#

you're right mike

#

lesson learned

#

not worth hourglassing styx?

hoary pasture
#

I mean sometimes it doesn’t pay off bouldy

strong abyss
#

oh u can buy from well and then switch off hourglass in the same room

strong abyss
hoary pasture
#

EM4 cshot rough

#

Your damage is gud just go safe

frozen spear
#

ok

#

acorn?

hoary pasture
#

You don’t need them but obv they would’ve been nice

strong abyss
#

wait holy

hoary pasture
#

Acorn or tooth up to you, I usually Acorn a lot more on Beowulf

frozen spear
#

wait can I cheat by anvilling cshot

strong abyss
#

mirage shot and aphro cast

hoary pasture
#

No guarantees

frozen spear
#

yeah holy high roll

#

my other hammer is some stupid special thing

#

so it would only cost me cash

strong abyss
#

#

bc its a room

hoary pasture

Well that’s why I said I

frozen spear

Follow the link ig

time for RI2?

strong abyss

instead em4?

frozen spear
#

or maybe just hope for fixed hammer to actually work lol

left prism
#

If it works can i convert you to zag shield dusa

frozen spear
#

I refuse

strong abyss
#

RI2 instead em4 means u get a lot less boons and the boons u have r worse, so rooms and heros r much harder

hoary pasture
#

RI2 rough on Beo

frozen spear
#

oh no PS

#

that sucks

strong abyss
#

but it also means once u reach styx, ur run is basically done

left prism
#

Also less poms

hoary pasture
#

Less poms too overall

strong abyss
#

unless u choke like me bouldy

frozen spear
#

well time for another attempt

strong abyss
#

yeah that too

#

RI2 vs em4 is early game vs late game which one u want to be harder

left prism
#

Ri2 is just get the booms, and the poms

#

And the health

first room chaos, rolled for can't collect stones but get +stone

You arent quitting out right?

frozen spear

nope

#

god run into hades and now this

#

what the hell am I supposed to do

hoary pasture
#

Best to ask in the Speedrun discord or modding server because your modpack is acting weird in general

strong abyss
#

just get the legal mod pack

hoary pasture
#

This is the one

strong abyss
#

o uh

hoary pasture
#

But it's still not working properly

strong abyss
#

do the verify integrity of game files

#

and then rerun the mod runner

frozen spear
#

frankly I'm not as upset as I feel like I should be

#

I think 50 heat is almost consistent for me on beo

lime elk
#

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

I once started with tooth, lost it in Tartarus and the rest of the run was Gucci

The legendary Talos 50 ft. EM4

spice lava
#

Astaos the legendary french high heater 👀 ✨

next acorn
#

That run was bouldy

frozen spear
#

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

strong abyss
#

td3 is free heat

jaunty falcon
#

Yeah you can do that

strong abyss
#

wait td3 is timer right

#

yeah tight dead

frozen spear
#

I'll never get any boon I want

#

but maybe epic decent level passion flare is all you need

#

FF better for AP2?

hoary pasture
#

If you don’t want to reset

#

You’ll reset a bit for poms anyway

frozen spear
#

I feel like even FF is hard to build up at 50

#

often had like two boons leaving asphodel

hoary pasture
#

It can be

#

I’ve had 25% at 55 heat

#

Which is all of it

frozen spear
#

spicy

hoary pasture
#

And it was a 3 sack

frozen spear
#

hm what would be the best last heat

#

maybe the accursed DC1

strong abyss
#

whats ur pact?

hoary pasture
#

DC1 probably

frozen spear
#

let me look

#

where's that website again

jaunty falcon
#

DC1 isn’t that bad tbh

hoary pasture
#

DC1 makes Cshot kinda sad

#

But yea it’s workable

#

DC2 actual cancer tho

jaunty falcon
#

Yee

strong abyss
#

there should be a way to avoid dc1

hoary pasture
#

Yes

#

it’s cp2

strong abyss
#

maybe not worth tho

frozen spear
#

I feel like I could handle CP2

strong abyss
#

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

frozen spear
#

I can't stand OF simulator

strong abyss
#

oh ok nvm then yeah dc1

hoary pasture
#

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

hoary pasture
#

Yea

strong abyss
#

holy

hoary pasture
#

Looks about right

strong abyss
#

nah i feel like RI2 is worth here

#

idk might just be me tho

hoary pasture
#

It’s not

#

Not on Beo

frozen spear
#

get that nasty crap out of my face

strong abyss
#

what does beo lose?

hoary pasture
#

Poms

frozen spear
#

FF/PS

strong abyss
#

oh yeah

#

JS3 CP1 DC1 tho 😩

frozen spear
#

I was reaching dad in like 16min consistently though

hoary pasture
#

It’ll be fine

#

Just go for it

#

To see how it actually is

frozen spear
#

beo seems to have just about 0 issues with JS which is awesome

#

lmao wish I could just start running 50 with a trackpad

hoary pasture
#

Will probably have a bit here with DC1

frozen spear
#

oh well

hoary pasture
#

But again, shouldnt be too tight

#

Just reset for some poms out of Tart

#

And that’s it

frozen spear
#

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?

hoary pasture
#

Well miniboss

frozen spear
#

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

hoary pasture
#

Can be

frozen spear
#

what's best keepsake otherwise

#

athena?

hoary pasture
#

Earring / hourglass is my pick

#

I wouldnt take Athena on Beo personally

frozen spear
#

earring is a nice idea

strong abyss
#

earring is weird on sd tho no?

hoary pasture
#

No

frozen spear
#

earring is best on SD I assume lol

hoary pasture
#

it’s perfect on SD

strong abyss
#

oh

hoary pasture
#

Because SD heals you just enough to proc it

strong abyss
#

i thought there was a bug

hoary pasture
#

So you’re always within SD range into Asphodel

frozen spear
#

what's max earring +%?

hoary pasture
#

I mean earring

hoary pasture
frozen spear
#

wow who needs PS smh

gaunt fiber
#

so you had to lose SD + take dmg to make earring active

strong abyss
#

oh yeah that explains it

#

i remember hearing u had to take a hit

gaunt fiber
#

yeah that was awful

strong abyss
#

yeah it seems like it

lime elk
#

i got deathless stand 50 heat ap2 but i didn't use my sd

jaunty falcon
#

😔 happens to the best of us

lime elk
#

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

strong abyss
#

em4?

lime elk
#

i lost all my acorn charges because hades spawned the stupid bow enemies who shot me over and over

strong abyss
#

if em3 then rip

lime elk
#

em3, 50 heat

strong abyss
#

bouldy damn

lime elk
#

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

pseudo kernel
#

Block is like that

lime elk
#

i tried doing it twice and both times that happened

pseudo kernel
#

Some attacks just go through your block

#

Pretty un

#

Fun

lime elk
#

the second time was the time that killed me

#

also hs off makes for way easier runs lmfao

strong abyss
#

hs?

pseudo kernel
#

Why did you turn HS off at 50 lmao

#

What did you take instead of it

strong abyss
#

oh hell

lime elk
pseudo kernel
#

Wait what's your pact

strong abyss
#

u didnt have cf2 before??

#

damn

strong abyss
#

o uh

#

damn JS1

pseudo kernel
#

Kinda confused on why you would take cf2 when you could do cf1 hs

lime elk
pseudo kernel
#

And yeah js1 50 kinda interesting

strong abyss
#

oh wait hs is heightened im dumb bouldy

lime elk
#

when i hadn't been able to beat heroes before

lime elk
pseudo kernel
#

Damn don't you hate it when you die to a trap in the heroes fight

strong abyss
#

i would go js2 and hs instead of PL and CP1

lime elk
#

well i got three runs that got to heroes before i turned of hs

strong abyss
#

cp is just bouldy

lime elk
#

i died to lernie nearly every time

pseudo kernel
#

Nah you should def do hell mode at 50

strong abyss
#

rlly?

pseudo kernel
#

Yeah at 50

strong abyss
#

hm

pseudo kernel
lime elk
#

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

pseudo kernel
#

Breh

strong abyss
#

play with hs em2 on at non-50 heat

#

and just practice

#

with F02 tho

left prism
#

I only did it non hell mode cuz laziness to import a hell mode save from pc to my switch lol

lime elk
#

modded bouldy

left prism
#

Cant use the built in swap on switch dusa

lime elk
#

i have no idea how (or why) anyone would do 50 heat unmodded

left prism
#

Cant access any of the configs

#

So im stuck Than less zaglol

lime elk
#

but then again my build needs a hammer for it to work so idk

pseudo kernel
#

I think I've done it on 5 aspects

lime elk
#

wow

pseudo kernel
#

Two of them were on shield so kinda cheating

#

Wait no 4 aspects

#

Not as good as I thought 😔

left prism
#

Cant believe pro at keyboard would cheat by using sh*eld

pseudo kernel
#

Not as bad as the people cheating using mods

#

||talking about damue||

#

Also he speedrunning modpack

I'm a pro at keyboard

jaunty falcon

Proof

pseudo kernel
#

Here's me using the keyboard

#

Can't see it but I was typing using the duhvohrack keyboard layout

lime elk
#

wow, you really are pro at keyboard

pseudo kernel
#

Yeah I know

jaunty falcon
#

wow !

next acorn
#

wow !

shy plinth
#

Woah

#

I thought I was fast

frozen spear
#

back to the 50 grind

#

lord bless me with AP2 snow burst

spice lava
#

(3 clears at 50 Heat, 1 at 53 Heat)

shy gulch
#

50 heat unmodded isnt the worst

#

just dont go too much higher bouldy

dapper schooner
gaunt fiber
#

Lernie is such a well thought fight when you think about it

#

You can miss a lot playing modded at that heat

quartz mantle
#

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

frozen spear
quartz mantle
#

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

frozen spear
#

I hope I'll grow to feel the same way

#

for now dodging HS lava while lernie seems to randomly groundpound is a nightmare

forest token
#

the more i do EM Lernie the more i hate it lmao

#

and i'm not even doing high heat

quartz mantle
frozen spear
#

yeah I know

quartz mantle
#

It’s an attack cycle, and yea there’s variance but it’s not unpredictable

frozen spear
#

but it still constantly catches me off guard

quartz mantle
#

That comes w/ experience

left prism
#

Most runs for me just resulted in meg use on lernie tbh

#

Snake hard

frozen spear
#

I guess I can't hope to get 50 heat down in under 20 attempts

#

time for more grinding

gaunt fiber
quartz mantle
#

True yea

#

Red on red is annoying

quartz mantle
#

Basically lol

#

I just wanted to see a victory screen again

frozen spear
#

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

ashen garnet
#

Feels like 2:30 mins for CP2 normal Dad with a meh build is a good estimate at 50

frozen spear
ashen garnet
#

dw, just feels like the right margin. You will get it dusa

quartz mantle
#

Did you even read my nickname

strong abyss
#

oh bouldy

quartz mantle
#

CF does not exist

pseudo kernel
#

cf0 is so comfy

next acorn
#

Uno

#

Why do you do CF0 with RI

quartz mantle
#

I will never pay 270 for a boon

#

You can't make me it won't happen

frozen spear
#

is it idiotic to consider running authority with AP2 to roll into nectar

#

I also feel like boon rolling is really weak with AP2

frozen spear
#

:(

left prism
#

You still want to avoid replaces/bad purging options

frozen spear
#

fair

#

AP2 authority chaos would be wild lol

left prism
#

Tho i think rmancity has done authority strats

#

On chaos shield

hoary pasture
#

Authority strats are cool on ap1

#

On ap2 idk feels like it doesn’t do much

frozen spear
#

@jaunty falcon stop playing btd6 and tell us about them

hoary pasture
#

I don’t think it was them

#

UnAnanas did it

left prism
frozen spear
#

oh well pinging him is fun regardless

left prism
#

Yeah wrong person lmao

#

My bad

frozen spear
#

holy 57% double strike

#

and that stat is bugged to underrepresent actual +% right?

jaunty falcon
#

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

frozen spear
#

begone btd6 player

jaunty falcon
#

ok

frozen spear

average geraldo spammer

jaunty falcon

Average rof enjoyer

frozen spear
#

icy flare is a trash beo option because it's a ring of ice

jaunty falcon
#

Ok I agree with that

pseudo kernel
#

Icy flare is good tho

hoary pasture
#

I’ve done 50 heat with it

#

Must be top tier

pseudo kernel
#

I got my first beo win with it

frozen spear
#

beo flare tier list when

pseudo kernel
#

Must be good

hoary pasture
#

I’ve done beo 50 with no flare at all

#

Was better than icy flare

jaunty falcon
#

I tried that and died to em4

frozen spear
jaunty falcon
#

At 32

left prism
#

50 been done with all flares right?

hoary pasture
#

sadge

#

Yes

jaunty falcon
#

Pseudo did it

hoary pasture
#

Pseudo did it

frozen spear
#

lmao

jaunty falcon
#

Wow nice I didn’t kno

hoary pasture
#

Except boonless flare

frozen spear
#

this is proof that all high heat players share one brain cell

hoary pasture
#

I did all except slicing

jaunty falcon
#

And it’s not the right one

frozen spear
#

how do you even do boonless

#

I guess with FF you can do like 500 damage with 3 casts

jaunty falcon
#

Merciful end

jaunty falcon
#

Snow burst kinda mirage shot

hoary pasture
#

This is why you take hourglass

jaunty falcon
#

Bablos first sub 7 beo was ME right

frozen spear
#

actually though someone should make flare tier list

#

slicing S?

jaunty falcon
#

Def

#

SS even

hoary pasture
#

For what

jaunty falcon
#

Everything

frozen spear
#

64 heat

jaunty falcon
#

For speed

jaunty falcon
#

Heat is similar just with passion flare higher and some other slight adjustments

hoary pasture
#

Idk if Slicing is same as Thunder

#

Slicing is just ass

pseudo kernel
#

It is

hoary pasture
#

Thunder can get scaling atleast

frozen spear
#

does thunder zap every enemy in range or something

pseudo kernel
#

Oh wait you talking about the other one

hoary pasture
#

Like dstrike jolted

jaunty falcon
#

It zaps one enemy

pseudo kernel
frozen spear
#

bruh

pseudo kernel
#

Pretty gud

jaunty falcon
#

With the same damage as flood flare

hoary pasture
#

It zaps mosquitoes

pseudo kernel
#

And doesn't scale with cast damage

jaunty falcon
#

And no mirage

frozen spear
#

bruh

jaunty falcon
#

The cast does 0 damage it just summons a bolt

left prism
#

Random backstabs are worth tho

jaunty falcon
#

You’ll see that if you get a replace

left prism
#

Trust me

pseudo kernel
#

So true

#

Bestie

frozen spear
#

lmao just before entering dad I took a zeus boon on AP2

#

had a cast replace crossed out

#

still lost though

hoary pasture
pseudo kernel
#

Nice

frozen spear
#

lesson learned regardless

hoary pasture
#

Only buy essentials

#

On ap2

frozen spear
#

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

lime elk
#

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

left prism
#

also any RI?

lime elk
#

ri2

#

someone in the speedrunning discord explained to me how it happened already

spice lava
cursive portal
#

Its a meme

#

Someone said thats its a huge mistake to play kbm and that you have to play controller

pseudo kernel
#

As a pro at keyboard I can confirm that it is a huge mistake to play keyboard

spice lava
#

🤔

#

KBM should be one of my next moves in the future but I don't have a comfy desk for mouse

hoary pasture

Time to meme a little more with the heat mod

Apparently this is what ap3 does bouldy

Can you even exit this and move on to the next room?

hoary pasture

yes
