How long have u been playing?

# tired shoal Have you been grinding 24/7?

I actually cant: been having trouble focusing due to health issues so I eventually have to step away and chill so my brain doesn't explode, and that is usually two to threee runs max.

I guess I'm good at the puzzle solving aspect and learning to roll with what the chambers give; that along with how playing fists can be pretty low maintenance mentally (as in I did not play optimally at all), and it just tooknsome practice.

tired shoal
#

Tbf I’m slower cuz I focus more on being based rather than good but I also use God Mode, which I assume u don’t.

mellow wave
#

Nah; Im a stress masochist 😛 (actually tried a new file on Hell Mode with everything but Tight Deadline maxed ... I wiped two to three rooms in).

Also it's a game so as long as you're having fun go for based ^_^.

As for untapped potential not sure what to say: I remember passing up Smoldering Air on the pre-Furies shop for another Aphro boon (probably because I was going to sell something after anyhow and wanted something more tossable). If anything catches your attention, feel free to ask.

Ah.

#

I see, we’re opposites, that’s why lol.

when you get ME it's so good but when you don't you just feel sadge

it just how it is. even if I don't get ME, atleast I can still get more practice in with demeter fist since I'm still not used to it yet.

these two builds i did a while ago (still did them today)

as always the chiron build destroyed dad shadesmile

I mean for the hestia build there's a lot of fluff that doesn't need 2 be there

you can guess who you have to talk to based on the weapon

I mean it's true for shield, less so for others

tired shoal
# hidden lake (Do you talk to hypnos?)

Aspect of Beowulf. Unlock the Aspect of Guan Yu, then invest at least 5 Titan Bloods into any Shield aspects. Speak with Chaos while having Aegis equipped at least once (they must comment about it) OR speak with Chaos about weapon aspects. Chaos should tell you more in another conversation soon after that.

Ohh okay thanks

[OlympusExtra] Absolutely blessed Achilles darkness farm Hestia run trying out the new Hestia dash duo while using the Achilles spear ember shot build.. oh my goodness.. the amount of damage Dad just took standing in the fire and lava... I made a gif of the last part of P2 Hades just to show the damage from both the lava pool on the cast and the fire from the dash. Fair disclaimer, it takes several lucky picks to set that up (at least the lava pool part, the dash fire is just the duo and the regular fire dash), but I'm glad I got to experience it at least once and I can probably get something close to that again

i would rather a volley hammer than explosive tbh it would take too long to adjust tae given you only have like one in 5 runs to actually practice

yeah it was common and i used like 2 rolls on it, still super lucky though

#

hammers were deltachamber and targ system, i dont mind either of them but targ w/o cluster or rocket is really annoying on controller when the special goes somewhere random. didnt get splitting bolt or any blade rift buffs (which is to be expected w/ ap2 tbf, attack and dash rarity were lucky enough). i got tons of zeus boons thru shops and a couple trials but had to sell a few

hollow jacinth
#

delta is my preffered for high heat since it gives you iframes when you dash strike

oh i didnt even know that lol

prob helped me a lot then, blade dash + delta made it so i was using my call all the time

# dapper vapor Literally HOW

Early chain skewer + breaking wave = free and fast room clear. Just aim at a wall and it will autotarget to close enemies.

#

People sleep on Poseidon and only focus on a couple of his boons, but most of his kit is good imo

tired shoal
dapper vapor
#

Like, I assumed zag spear was one of the worst weapons and here you are giving me tech i never would've thought

#

(even though i already knew, occasionally, to aim rama special at walls)

#

Now im curious to try zag spear, thanks!

Chiron, Poseidon Special, Sea storm , with Jolted, Rupture and Priv Stat also go brrr
You probably got so many Call uses for EM4 heh

haughty quartz

definitely had like 6 greater calls against hades

Almost choked at the end tho

almost dead to hydra but we are not going to talk about that

Had sudden rush too so I was basically playing spamrush

I forgot take screenshot

I love play with flying kick

#

I think its too op

and I have %200 special damage boost from aphrodite

finally finished 32x24 (I have done all the Fists and Zag Sword only on 40 but I didnt wanna redo them at 32, I dont remember which Fist I used when I did 32x6 months ago)

dapper vapor
#

Oh wow congratulations

main pivot
#

Such a broken build that I beat EM3 Asterius without using a singlw Acorn charge, sadly I used 2 against solo Theseus tho bc he got Demeter when he used his aid

main pivot
dapper vapor
#

Ugh i hate losing acorn to chip damage

#

Hades summoned archers in the one i just did

main pivot
#

lol anything but crystals I'm fine with, archers are annoying tho fs

bold jolt
#

Also btw sea storm doesn't proc on flood flare and rod makes picking up casts harder, which makes it hurtful on castpects

main pivot
#

wait what i swear i kept getting jolted from my casts

#

yeah i got rod at the end of my last styx tunnel, just figured id pick it up bc i had a lot of zeus stuff and it's funny to have like 3 duos and a legebdary w/ gods pride

dapper vapor
hollow jacinth
#

It doesn’t kb very much at all

barren vessel
#

it does a little

hollow jacinth
#

Not enough to trigger sea storm

#

Think about it

dapper vapor
#

Oh wooooooow

barren vessel
#

but sea storm still doenst proc ye

dapper vapor
#

That's a bummer

hollow jacinth
#

If it knocked back too much then enemies would be knocked out of the blast radius of subsequent casts bouldy

dapper vapor
#

Flares are weird

barren vessel
#

indeed

main pivot
#

i definitely got jolted a bunch from my beo cast, and i never had thunder flare during the run

#

i only got zeus aid back in elysium or styx after i sokd it in tart so the jolt couodnt come from anywhere but sea storm

bold jolt
main pivot
#

i thought it's just poseidon knock backs that proc it

do other gods have knockback stuffs that can do it too

I love Beowulf so much

I do good with it especially since I main Aegis

ah

I mean you can tell by seeing which weapon I have the most clears with haha

timid saddle
#

here’s a build i did with chiron a few days ago

#

look how many clears i have on it 💀

kindred adder
#

Looks like the standard chiron build

timid saddle
#

yep

kindred adder
#

Aphro on Attack, Dio on Special, Arti on Cast, and then you get the Ares revenge boon, and go for Low Tolerance, Splitting Headache, and Curse of Nausea

timid saddle
#

just a thought, do u watch windette?

kindred adder
#

yeah thats where I got that from. It's also how I got my first clear with the bow

timid saddle
#

lmao same

kindred adder
#

Yeah I can thank Windette and Haelian for giving me weapon builds to absorb

timid saddle
#

^^

#

i can try using weapons without their assistance but i wouldnt do as good i think

kindred adder

Haelian is why I have spear clears

I forgot I had cold fusion on my first hades defeat run

cunning loom

first ever 32 run!

#

i stopped using the bow and swapped to the only good weapon and beat it first go

#

with PS and Eris, the call was doing over 300 per tick lol

#

i wish i could have pommed it more but the fates were not kind

bold jolt
#

lvl 9 dio atk is way more than enough lmao

#

quite the pact but it works

versed crane
#

2 src of hangover 🙁

bold jolt
#

oh that's why they wanted more poms

so that drunken strike would do as much as the call, so the override wouldn't matter

yeap, or be less reckless too, thankfully i only have time problems i tartarus, and not much even

It's 4 free heat with SD

Also you wouldn't have to take em4, which typically isn't taken until 50+

not by deciet i tell you

it was truth, first hand experienced

just 30% hp?

And knowing when to Dodge

Hades isn't the hardest boss i think

You can also use touch of styx and Athena 1ups
