[paper oxide]

woooo 40 fists thx @lime bane 😄

also @bold jolt changed the pact some because i hate ap so much

[bold jolt]

Very fair lmao ap1 sucks

Oh cp1 doesn't sound fun tho

[paper oxide]

yeah but cf1 suuuuucks

dc maybe?

[bold jolt]

Certain aspects dc is fine yeah I'd say fists can work

[paper oxide]

i guess you can dash strike to clear and then dash upper

shield is next. obviously dc is pretty bad for beo, but what about zeus

[bold jolt]

Fine for zeus

Doable on beo tho

I did my 50 beo with dc1

[paper oxide]

does the first aoe get eaten by dc?

unless you nail them with the rush i mean

[bold jolt]

Yeah

I'd only do dc1 for beo if you can guarantee cshot tho

Otherwise a decent chance you'll time out in tart lol I had like 18 seconds left on the clock

Granted it was 50 but dc slows you down a lot

[paper oxide]

maybe i'll do it on special only rama

if you're talking about the other 5 slots there's nothing in them, it's just to fill the square

alr

[paper oxide]

40 shield clear! would have been completely insane with cshot

[autumn bronze]

and with plenty of time to spare

Yoooo delta chamber rail but bow

[random forum]

Cursed slash gaming 😱

[random forum]

Where’s your 40heat clear

[paper oxide]

Can the bow even backstab? I assumed it couldn't so it didn't matter

[random forum]

Everything can backstab if you attack from behind

[heavy solar]

“Can the bow even backstab?” Bruh what

like

[random forum]

But more significantly fiery presence only affects enemies that have never been hit

Including the hit that strips dc

[heavy solar]

The things that don’t backstab are generally aoe

Which bow happens to not be

[random forum]

Bow attacks are aoe

[heavy solar]

I think I words badly

But like

Bow can backstab

[random forum]

They’re not circular aoes

[heavy solar]

I don’t see why one would think it doesn’t

[random forum]

But they still do hit everything within the line of fire

[heavy solar]

True

Ironic chiron enjoyer spoke truth and I spoke bads

Parting shot ha gottem

[random forum]

That said this was special only Rama and bow specials are not aoe, they are projectiles

Even Rama I think but idk

[paper oxide]

I just assumed because it was a ranged attack and never really paid attention about it

[heavy solar]

I think rama can backstab on both

Ranged attacks can backstab though

[paper oxide]

Yes I understand

Based on everyone saying it

Multiple times now

Thank you lol

[heavy solar]

But you say it like you didn’t think that ranged weapons could backstab before which leads me to ask how you came to the initial conclusion

[paper oxide]

Tbf most of the damage for that build was not Rama special hits. Like oh no they could have done 7 damage instead of 5

Because backstab is traditionally a melee thing? If you shot someone from behind with an arrow it would never be called a backstab. In some games backstab literally requires a melee weapon or specifically a dagger.

[heavy solar]

Interesting

[paper oxide]

I didn't remember ever seeing the word backstab while using the ranged weapons. It's sort of hard to get behind enemies with them

[random forum]

SMH this is 2022 I can backstab with a shield and if you disagree you’re canceled

[paper oxide]

Lol the shields have stabby bits

[heavy solar]

I can backstab with a nonstabing weapon get canceled

[random forum]

#h1-discussion

[versed crane]

no it works with dc

the main issue with fp dc is that its just counter intuitive

fp relies on a strong first hit while dc's countered with smaller bursts

[random forum]

Ah I had been led to believe that popping dc marked the enemy as “damaged”

[bold jolt]

oh i thought dc just nullified fp straight up

have i been lied to

[versed crane]

its undamaged not unhit 🗿

this is a gamer moment

All I wanted was a cute lightning phalanx run 🙃

But nope. Sold riposte once even

Truly, I am blessed for all the stuns that didn’t happen to me

[bold jolt]

should've ran legacy

[versed crane]

thats why lp kinda sucks on achilles

tidal dash start is ideal so you open so much useless garbage

[bold jolt]

huh it just occurred to me that when i did my achilles run i should've went for lp instead of spamming flurry zeus atk

[random forum]

Flurry triple Zeus kinda fun

Tho

[versed crane]

That's like half the reason zeus atk works

Aspect of flurry jab or explosive + charged

I was dreaming of explosive charged since my last zag run only had exploding and was sad

[heavy solar]

Just play guan-yu so you only have to find charged skewer

[vivid sedge]

just play gy and get cskewer and be better anyways

damn it too slow

Plus guan-yu special kinda better than explosive launcher

Due to the way they work

you didn't have to take rod tho

I wanted it out of the pool in case I saw Zeus again

that's normally fine but it also makes castpects a pain

I mean it doesn’t hurt you to have rod I just hate it being open before I get LP

It kinda makes it easier to find stones I’ve lost sometimes

[vale heart]

why? just pick em back up

Lightning rod makes the casts a bit harder to pick up

[tame spire]

aspect of hera is cool

also being able to put 3 casts in one attack is op

50 is just the game but not fun. Plus I'm too awful :p
Thanks! Now I gotta figure out where the sweet spot for heat is that I want to play in

or just do speedruns I guess. Or maybe all aspect 32

[bold jolt]

start recording runs and submit to the speedrun leaderboard lol

going for sub10 all weapons seems doable enough

fresh file is always an option

[heavy solar]

Bro has like 80 more runs then I do holy

When did you overtake me

[paper oxide]

probably when i died in tart a billion times on sword

[heavy solar]

True smh reseting is for nerds

[vale heart]

Super doable I've accidentally gotten sub10 while doing prophecies

[lunar peak]

was this a good build

[random forum]

Hunter dash useless on beo

Trippy flare beo wants Stygian soul mirror talent

Otherwise beo likes flood flare and Artemis on attack or special to unlock Mirage Shot

[obsidian harness]

world splitter is not gaming

imagine timing out in elysium with 7 minutes

[random forum]

It very much is not but it’s cute for pre-clear play

[obsidian harness]

yea good thing i haven't cleared yet

[random forum]

World splitter dc2 even more gamingn’t

[obsidian harness]

divine dash is great for dc

finished 40 heat with all weps but skipped the fists victory screen 👍

[heavy solar]

Scillanting feast kinda useless on trippy flare, if your trippy flare isn’t killing everything instantly you should be grabbing mirage shot or something instead

[heavy solar]

The problem is you weren’t using zag sword

[bold jolt]

wait i just realized you haven't changed your mirror from high heat lmao still using SD and dark regen

[heavy solar]

Based

[bold jolt]

get fiery presence and high confidence then you got a proper speedrunning mirror

[heavy solar]

I think the main problem is you didn’t anvil into dedge piercing wave hoarding slash

And weren’t using zag dword

[bold jolt]

or use the guaranteed hammer from the mod lol

[heavy solar]

Oh bruh they’re playing modded

[bold jolt]

they have been

[heavy solar]

That is very clearly the only reason they have a better pb than me

And it’s definitely not because I’m bad

[bold jolt]

obv

[paper oxide]

Crap did I not have fiery on?

Whoops

[heavy solar]

Smh

[paper oxide]

The rest doesn't matter I never used an SD anyway

[heavy solar]

That’s why you didn’t sub10

No fiery

[paper oxide]

Lol I donno if fiery shaves off a minute and a half

[bold jolt]

true but also DD lets you go more unga bunga on bosses and takes stupid curses the chamber before a boss lol

[heavy solar]

It’s the combo of you not using zag sword and not using fiery

[bold jolt]

high confidence would save you a lot of time in tart as well tho

[paper oxide]

I did unga bunga all the bosses

Lol

[bold jolt]

unga bunga harder

[paper oxide]

High confidence plus fiery I could see being a problem

Oops

[bold jolt]

i mean DD is just safer overall on the off chance you get wombo comboed in a boss lol

[paper oxide]

Tbh zag sword really might be better. Not like my crits mattered

[bold jolt]

you didn't build around the crit tho

[paper oxide]

My favorite part of this run was purple sure footing in tart so aspho I just stood in lava

[bold jolt]

if you're gonna FDS it then zag sword is def gonna be better tho

[bold jolt]

based

[paper oxide]

FDS?

[bold jolt]

flat damage soup

only works with RD

[paper oxide]

Ah I basically just found aphro before artemis

So flat damage soup was the answe

What am I gonna do not take purple aphro strike?

[bold jolt]

lmao fair

[paper oxide]

Although I guess I could have taken Athena special and brought Arty into aspho

Then just been happy with deadly reversal or heart rend

Donno if that would have ultimately been better dps than what I got

[bold jolt]

no clue

[paper oxide]

One thing I didn't do was take Zeus call early

Maybe I'm just supposed to take that going for smair instead of waiting to find RD

[heavy solar]

Zag sword better because the bulk of your damage was coming from sources other then attack + rd

[paper oxide]

Yeah I get that but I just started with splash dash because it's the best. I didn't plan to go smair until I found aphro

Maybe I should start with Arty or something

For nemesis I mean

[heavy solar]

Obviously best nem build is arte attack athena deflect aphro dash

[paper oxide]

I didn't know that was obvious tbh

[heavy solar]

Deadly reversal, heart rend and parting shot 💪💪💪

[paper oxide]

It's so much worse if you don't find like two chaos buffs

[heavy solar]

lmfao

[real plover]

Maybe I was building it wrong. I would try and put zeus on special, but I never seemed to be dealing enough damage by late game

[heavy solar]

They’re joking
It’s easily the worst shield aspect

[real plover]

I have a feeling that it used to be really good when I first started playing, but there was a balance patch or something

[heavy solar]

The problem with zeus special on chaos is zeus boons have an internal cooldowns per enemy so lightning bolts can only be dropped on an enemy every .2 seconds

So if you shotgunned chaos shield with zeus it’d only be 1 maybe 2 lightning bolts if you had double strike

[real plover]

ah that makes senes

[obsidian harness]

chaos is a good mid tier aspect but most users here tried it once at level 2 then decided it was bad

it’s also a shield.

[heavy solar]

It’s a mildy upgrade to aspectless shield

The only reason it’s good is that it is a shield

At least in my opinion and I have used it once somewhat recently

Bruh @ lvl5 heartbreak strike being the same as lvl1 epic

[tired shoal]

Lovedrunk Fist.

[heavy solar]

hangover stacks will override each other once you hit 5

so your drunk strike from attacks would've been rolling over your huge drunk flourish stacks

should only run 1 source of hangover for that reason

[tired shoal]

Ah, F.

The Support Fire and Mistral Dash must've covered me when that happened.

[heavy solar]

should be drunk strike and aphrodite special because aphro special is bigger damage and will open up the low tolerance duo allowing you to stack more hangover on weakened enemies'

[tired shoal]

Thanks, I'll rember that for next time.

Fermented Lovedrunk Fist.

[heavy solar]

I think that what covered you was god mode really

because neither support fire nor mistral dash are good damage

[obsidian harness]

support fire is good for fists attack

[tired shoal]

I mean when I got them they certainly helped with mob clearing, and the chill stacks definitelly noticeably affected Hades as well as the chip damage from support fire.

Every little added up.

I explained it to them dw bout it

[heavy solar]

Hangover legit one of my favourite builds

[obsidian harness]

new hangover will always override old hangover btw, even if it’s worse

[tired shoal]

Indeed.

[heavy solar]

I said that already

[obsidian harness]

hangover on fists special isn’t really ideal anyway

[heavy solar]

Even on demeter special just no

[obsidian harness]

hold on let me see what else frost ripper said

[heavy solar]

Not much

[obsidian harness]

probably want like aphro special for the duo

[heavy solar]

Alternatively you could do a crackhead build like dio attack ares special aphrodite dash for curse of nausea, longing, and low tolerance

since you won’t be specialing that often anyways curse of longing might actually do work

[tired shoal]

Huh, I might actually do that, but do I need Duo's or anything?

[heavy solar]

Would not recommend this it just seems neat i. Theory

[heavy solar]

You don’t need duos

But they are helpful

[tired shoal]

Oh.

[bold jolt]

curse of vengeance works fine tho and probably preferred so you can have heartbreak flourish on the special

i'm assuming dem fists btw

[heavy solar]

low tolerance lets you stack hangover up 8 times on weakened enemies increasing your potential dps by 60%
Curse of nausea lets hangover proc every .35 seconds so is a 37.5% dps boost

Yeah curse of vengeance is prefered and aphro flourish is also prefered

Even on non-dem fists as well

[tired shoal]

This was actually Zagfist.
