no, the flare is a 360 radius, crush shot is just straight shot

Except the bad ones

Shackle gaming

Oh

thunder flare shackle gaming

bold jolt
#

shackle beo isn't that bad

hollow jacinth
#

Maybe I’ll go for sub 8 on the bad ones

#

Sub 7 on trippy/phalanx/hunters

#

My pb had the opportunity to go hunters flare at the end

#

I had the chance of swap

#

Prob should have done that tbh

tawdry root
#

i think phalanx is sub 6:30 at least material

hollow jacinth
#

Phalanx is just small passion

tawdry root

if you're going to throw it in with hunter's

anything is sub 6:30 if you're cracked enough

The boon that did the most in that build, was surely heart of stone

And ain't that the truth

versed crane
#

I thought you already did fhat

hollow jacinth

Yeah I did

#

I was gonna try and streak ri0 ap2 eris runs

Then on the second attempt I died to dad

#

And then I got bored and started playing anyheat

well i mean those ones are good ig but spins :(

final field
# vivid sedge no cskewer 😔

i had the option for it but i went with the spins because combined with ares cast i essentially had two spins, plus the special meant i had more AOE damage than shield could ever hope to achieve

#

kinda melted hades, was extremenly close to not using a single DD

#

but i choked hard in the first phase

violet bloom

200% special damage is good tho

Damn homies a cheat engine

vale heart
#

Why is trippy used on beowulf? The aoe is fat but isn't the whole point of beowulf to grab your casts fast and throw em back out again

hollow jacinth
#

Trippy is a lot of damage

#

On beowulf, it’s pommed are bugged to give twice as much extra damage as they should

#

But because the casts take so long to pop out, you use stygian soul

#

Which in itself is inconsistent because you need a ton of extra casts for it to do well

violet bloom

Any idea of what keepsake I should throw on from here?

fallow aurora

you could just take money or something

#

also wrong channel

vale heart
#

Only one I could post pics directly into 😔

#

Getting closer to that 10 minute mark though

hollow jacinth
#

Nice

#

Turn off em3, all BO and all TD tho

#

And HL

#

And try adding some forced overtime

#

Also fiery presence is rlly good on beo, I’d use it

violet bloom
#

also use abyssal blood

vale heart
#

Why abyssal over boiling

#

I figured for stuff like nem and rama boiling was good

hollow jacinth
#

Since flares don’t lodge, it doesn’t matter which one you use

vale heart
#

Yeah, I just have boiling for other builds

#

And do the casts get the boost from the dragon rush for fiery?

vale heart
#

Especially with speedrunning aspects

hollow jacinth
#

Tight deadline is bad if you’re going for ingame time

vale heart
#

Oh fr

hollow jacinth
#

Because the pact disables survival rooms in Tartarus

#

Survival rooms pause the timer

vale heart
#

Only tart?

#

Seems odd

hollow jacinth
#

Yes

#

Survival rooms only exist in Tartarus either way though

vale heart
#

I'm not wholly focused on blasting down my times yet though, just trying to go for speed while also gathering heat

#

Ah

#

Sorry, had enough thans outside of tart that I kind of forgot he's the reason for the hella waves of enemies

#

And since I kill everything faster than him I basically just forget he's there

#

Until the end where I'm screaming waiting for him to drop the centaur heart

Now zag spear ig??

maybe ill ask for vod review on this one

#

actually nvm thats too much work to clip and upload it

Soon I'll break 10 minutes

#

S o o n

bold jolt
#

You can totally break 10 easily if you use the right pact lmao

vivid sedge
#

^^

vale heart
#

I tried a run after you guys told me the combo but the seed was abysmal

vivid sedge
#

i mean that happens sometimes, just try again

vale heart
#

Hammer first and it was trash for every weapon

vivid sedge
#

but td, bp, em3, and fo0 are slowing you down a lot

vale heart
#

So I decided to just get some more heat clears and this ME build went zoom

#

Yeah, I'll try it soon

#

Maybe once I get a few fast runs on each weapon vanilla I'll download the mod

vivid sedge
#

you can do fo1 if youre not yet comfortable with fo2 but you should try getting used to fo2 soon

#

good to do that for both heat and speed

vale heart
#

The thing that annoys me most about it is asphodel honestly

#

I guess I gotta just learn spawn manips for every room

#

Is there a per room guide for that?

vale heart
#

Thanks a bunch!

# versed crane frostbitten horn in styx?

I can tell you're a newer player who's not too familiar with all the game mechanics! No worries, let me help you out on learning about Demeter's Keepsake.

The next Boon you find will be from Demeter. Her blessings have +10/15/20% chance to be Rare or better.
So this Keepsake ensures that the next offering from one of the eight standard Olympians will contain Demeter. This effect will also persist until you collect one of her Boons. It has the additional effect of increasing the rarity of her boons in terms of Rare and Epic. Note that this effect increases with level, from level 1 to 3, and has a fixed +10% chance for a Duo or Legendary Boon to appear, if you have the necessary prerequisite Boons.

I hope you enjoy the game as a new player and feel welcome to ask any questions about basic game mechanics you might have!

and also some movespeed that doesnt work with hyper sprint correctly a lot of the time

"invisible" is the name of an effect which has its own mouseover description

can only highlight 5 but i also had explosive return + smoldering air, so i just sat right in Hades face the entire run throwing my beyblade and instantly catching it for all the damages while i tanked his damage with my 3 DDs (he only managed to rob me of 1 because i just killed him way to quick lol)

vivid sedge
#

very very nice zeus build

#

also since it looks like youre going for faster times, turning off tight deadline will make you a bit faster since having it on disables survival rooms in tartarus which pause the timer

scarlet gyro
#

oh i'm not really going for fast times, i just sort of get those times as i get more experienced at the game

vivid sedge
#

ah ok, just looked like it bc of pact and the fact that you already have a higher heat clear than 15 lol

scarlet gyro

yeah haha. i wanted to do the 32 heat clear for the skele statue

now it's just clearing bounties and doing fun runs rather than stressing myself lol

rama 40, almost threw dad fight lmao

#

yes dc2 would've been better but i tried it an realized that i hardly lead with special and was too lazy to learn that

#

Also probably should've starting with Zeus special but didn't want to pass up purple Aphrodite atk

final field
#

zeus special is good, but for dc2, would ares special not be better?

#

with dc2 zeus special will only do 90 increased damage without poms

#

with ares, youd lose the damage of the second special arrow hit, but the doom would chunk for a lot, right?

bold jolt

Zeus strips DC faster, the special isn't meant for damage

#

Also Zeus chains to other enemies as well as rama arrows so it just clears DC really fast

final field
#

the special isnt meant for damage sure but its better if it does more, no?

#

ah thats tru

#

fair enough

#

ares spec may or may not be my most used boon in the entire game

bold jolt
#

Damage is good but also shared suffering + epic aphro atk twin shot can kill a lot of things very easily

final field
#

i really like ares hes got fun stuff

grim peak
final field
#

ares special is a super nice find in any run since most weapons use special sparingly, adding a powerful doom effect into a rotation with an already strong attack is kinda crazy

tawdry root
#

ares special on rama is quite good but i would usually take zeus because 1. strips dc like no other 2. can hit more enemies 3. jolted my beloved

#

given the choice of course. i'm never given the choice anymore.

that would just be UC + CF2 + JS1 or UC + FO2

good luck then

sorry that sounded sarcastic I promise it wasn't meant to be lol

🙂 it's just progress i can feel while prolonging the fun. once i stop progressing it'll still be fun but not as fun and i'll probably play less

personally i got way more fun jumping from 8 to 32 to 40 because i feed of reactions from other people and attention seek hard

it should not be your first heat source

i would do [checks pact]

lunar peak
tawdry root
#

what's your goal heat, 5?

lunar peak
tawdry root
#

middle management, underworld customs, tight deadline 1

#

middle management only affects minibosses, so you can skip them sometimes + doesn't affect asterius at all, underworld customs just makes you sell something before you leave to the next floor (and you should have something to sell most runs anyway), tight deadline 1 is a 36 minute or less run, so should be easy

lunar peak

36 minutes? Yea I can do that

Thanks

flurry fire and seeking fire are not bad but i really wanted that sweet cluster rockets... oh well there's always next time

also btw, you want to be putting more of your poms into dash/jolted instead of attack

summer trail

i usually avoid poms naturally thus persephone's keepsake is best for me

just one shotted any boss phase from very early on
