fishing also pauses igt but you have to walk to the spot which can be time loss if it's on the other side of the tileset

indigo holly
#

you got your first sub 16 way before me kekw

#

keep it up i believe in sub 5 unmodded

strong ravine
#

šŸ—æ

limpid mountain
#

progress-wise

quiet lark
#

and im like 50-100 clears

indigo holly
#

have you considered walking faster

indigo holly
#

my hundreth clear was my first sub 12

strong ravine
indigo holly
#

wtf +200% dash strike with no core boon???

quiet lark
#

one day i will actually try to get a sub 15

strong ravine
quiet lark
#

but for now i will derust with heat 32

indigo holly
#

i notice times are the same

strong ravine
#

yes

#

no actually i just happened to have 2 458s

indigo holly
#

id believe it

#

ur a gamer after all gigachad

bold jolt
#

mainly the ones that dont start with the attack, like hestia, nemesis, rama

indigo holly
#

the clockets is really just the icing on the cake lmao

bold jolt
#

rama generally doesnt take shackle into aspho since you kinda ideally have twin shot but otherwise you can take shackle if you want

strong ravine
#

on nem shackle starts to suck ass after a while and u need other stuff

indigo holly
#

wait nem starts splash?

strong ravine
#

yes

#

or shackle

#

or ME

bold jolt
#

shackle nem lowkey kinda just splash nem except you start shackle and you pray to rng for early tdash

boreal summit
#

Isn't shack mainly just the basis for a Chaos build though?

bold jolt
#

chaos aspect? or chaos boons

quiet lark
#

shackle for speed is just a placeholder

bold jolt
#

because neither for both lmao

boreal summit
#

boons

quiet lark
#

for other play, its a meme

bold jolt
#

you dont build around chaos boons 99% of the time

#

the 1% is meme beam and trippy builds

quiet lark
bold jolt
#

that too

#

but also that isn't a build that's just resource grinding lmao

boreal summit
#

Strike is just free damage, and ambush is actually gamebreaking on Arthur and a couple others

bold jolt
#

well i mean ofc but you cant guarantee seeing chaos in your run

quiet lark
#

but the main problem is that its a side bonus, not the whole build

indigo holly
#

problem is that you can't force chaos to appear so there's no such thing as a chaos run

bold jolt
#

when you see chaos ofc you 're gonna want to get what benefits your aspect

#

nothing guarantees seeing chaos so you can't have a "chaos build"

indigo holly
#

outside of maybe like, infernal soul cast builds where you either hit +stones or turbo lose

bold jolt
#

(stygian not infernal)

boreal summit
#

Well you wouldn't really build around shackle either if you just get lucky enough with an attack boon

indigo holly
#

whoops

quiet lark
#

or a chaos build could be choosing random stuff

indigo holly
#

not a real aspect

bold jolt
quiet lark
bold jolt
#

and it's not necessarily "building around shackle"

#

it's just using shackle

boreal summit
#

Well the drawback to shackle is the flat 150%, chaos is the only way past that so if you don't bet on chaos it would just be outpaced by a normal boon

quiet lark
#

the point of shackle isnt to be used the whole time, just as a placeholder

bold jolt
#

the only "normal boon" that can outpace the 100% from shackle is rare/epic aphrodite attack or epic athena/demeter

indigo holly
#

150% is better than like most 1-2 pom epic strikes

quiet lark
indigo holly
#

shackle angle on % strike builds is not something i've considered but i'll look into it

bold jolt
#

and considering that's a pool of 4 boons (3 of which needs a good amount of poms to pass), shackle is just straight up better

quiet lark
bold jolt
#

pain and suffering

indigo holly
#

just imagine if that 250% dash strike build got arte though

#

crits would 1 shot hades through immune bubbles

bold jolt
#

sounds about right

#

that's what arty clockets are for lmao

#

arty clockets with purple rd kinda strong

bold jolt
#

shackle talk made me want to do shackle nem and got a sub8

If you're talking about "unseen one" I'm using a max save with hundreds of thousands of darkness modded in lmao

nvm its 25

indigo holly

99% sure it's 25k

#

ha

quiet lark

#

so all that and i can look like chaos?

heavy solar

Yeah

#

No resource manager required

quiet lark

just reset your mirror, and then you can do ri4 for free

you can get it in a morning if you try i guess

based af gigachad

heavy solar
#

nuh uh

indigo holly
#

just practice 64 heat

#

then it doesn't matter

ocean pollen
#

So all you have to do is have 25,000 darkness at once?

indigo holly

you also need to unlock themes

does ap2 slash purging options?

pallid sundial

I don't think so

golden peak
#

no only boon and pom menus

but since you don't have many boons, you're likelier to lose an important one. Kinda.

Whats wrong with my mirror talents?šŸ˜”

indigo holly
#

Dark foresight is really ppwerful

#

More epics at hermes and chaos are better than likelier duos usually

#

Room rerolls are kind meh since its easy to force what gods you need in front of you but boons are far more random

I’ll look into those my next run then

considering only hades is a problem i think js3 is doable

strong ravine

when beo

golden peak

eris and achilles are literally the only aspects unlocked

strong ravine

get beo then

golden peak

beo would be a spoiler

strong ravine

they should get it

unmodded beo feels sucky

Probably top 1 or 2 duo boon in the game

sterile falcon

almost -14 oof

pallid sundial
#

GG !

#

very respectable for no mirage shot and not full mirror

#

oh, do you dark foresight instead of the rare boon talent though

indigo holly
#

em2 fo2 would've cleared under 14 tbh

#

ggs though

Also feather duster

Is the mirror talent
Swap the purple between the 2 yellows

limpid mountain
#

what is the usual "best" mirror perks ?

#

i have a few towards the end that are in green but i dont think i got the best list

indigo holly
#

there should be a pin in some channel (probably new players?)

limpid mountain
#

yeah i just saw it

#

ill look more in detail when i get home

#

entire day off tomorrow to grind hades a bit

indigo holly
#

generally fiery/shadow to taste (depending on if your weapon can backstab/needs breakpoints), purple all the way down, high confidence if you're speedrunning otherwise the purple options, then family favorites, dark foresight, god's pride, fated persuasion (green one) at the very end

pallid sundial
#

pride/legacy can also depends on preference and build

#

though pride is usually better yeah

Disagree with the shadow presence comment as far as anyheat is concerned, and high heat while not using damage control. Not just for the three aspects mentioned there.

It's probably easier to list the aspects I prefer shadow on instead:
All of achilles except maybe for LP achilles on high heat, which may just work better with fiery
ME builds, since doom is the third thing that hits, not the first. And even then, being able to 1-shot everything in tartarus thanks to fiery can be faster than the extra backstab.
The rails other than Hestia

heavy solar
#

I also think fiery is better

indigo holly
#

this awful build is somehow my rail pb

#

smair carry ResidentSleeper

pallid sundial
#

bruh that's a great build what are you talking about bouldy

#

only issue is pom

#

otherwise what would you want ??

indigo holly
#

it felt really awful to play for whatever reason

#

whoever told me to turn off attack at cursor is not cooking imo

pallid sundial
#

oh yeah if you're not used to it it's hell zaglol

#

but that's not a build xD

indigo holly
#

i guess i'll keep it off and just adapt

#

lightning phalanx felt awkward

pallid sundial
#

"yo rate my Hestia build"

indigo holly
#

hestia players only know reload and fire smh

#

oh god ok do not play mkb attack at cursor off bow

#

this is even worse

snow hull
#

wow i didn't even know attack at cursor off was a thing

#

i'm going to try keyboard only controls lol

willow bronze

Eventually you get a feel for where you need to be to switch targets

#

Rail is unplayable for me without aim assist

bold jolt

the speedpack is turbocheating what the hell???

#

literally just turned it on and got sub 10

bold jolt

well like

#

the only thing the modpack did for you wash cshot and 2 sack lmao

#

and fountain indicator

#

the 2 braids, epic shot, mirage, and dad call is all you lmao

#

this wasn't necessarily a speedpack diff it's just good rng

primal crown

It was the pride gaming

oh lmao yeah that too

couldve been much better, dad fight was awful, impervious foes

bold jolt
#

it do be like that

#

rip tdash poms

limpid mountain
#

got it late, and i didnt really see the point of pomming tdash that late when hermes didnt bless me with +2 dashes

bold jolt
#

tdash is still good without hermes dashes lmao

#

it's still great damage as long as you put poms into it

#

it just gets stronger with the right hermes boons, as with every boon

golden peak
#

a fun run

primal crown
#

Just the essentials squirtnya

golden peak

This should beat upto like 60

#

With hazard probably

when u get the bons but have no clue howto arthur

plume sucks its like

free ichor tho

but also dont forget the 15% from zag sword lmao

golden peak

2 ichor

which is like

bold jolt

but consider this

#

they were free

#

i think most people who run plume zag sword reset on common rd but i could be wrong on that lmao

not even sub9]

i mean no tdash poms and common rd on a stinky aspect lmao

well i'm never ever doing that again

#

also what does croven mean?

terse terrace
#

0 Muscle memory bouldy

snow hull
#

it was so janky

#

but turning off attack at cursor improves the aim assist loads

terse terrace
snow hull
#

well i tried achilles at 20 heat

#

but my second attempt with chiron was successful

#

it's more frustrating than difficult actually

golden peak
#

Sounds like chiron

snow hull
#

chiron was helpful because i could hit even if i aimed backwards lol

#

it's mainly just that you can't retreat and attack at the same time

snow hull
#

heat record!!!!

#

i was struggling so hard but first try with lucifer

#

i got potted twice by dad- sure footing is a must take

golden peak
#

pace was dead but have you seen red quick favor

golden peak
snow hull
#

wow that's like 40% of a smouldering air

granite python
#

finally, a win again. was pretty quick (for me) too, without even trying

primal crown
#

Big doom, sad rd

golden peak
#

hermes is a troll, with the other boons and rooms should be sub8

granite python
primal crown
#

Yeah

granite python
#

can't have everything, i guess. would it have made a difference, anyway? doom was doing all the work

primal crown
#

Hyper sprint with common rd is a 50% boost to doom

granite python
#

ohthanthink oooh

primal crown
#

Epic rd would've been a 100% boost with sprint

#

And it goes even beyond with ichors (mov speed is multiplicative)

snow hull
#

Never seen that before

golden peak
#

i didnt use the special

#

actually

snow hull
#

I didn't even know you could get charged launcher

golden peak
#

you are probably using achilles

snow hull
#

And gy

#

I meant charged skewer and launcher in combo btw

golden peak
#

its the best combo you should try it

snow hull
#

What about zagspecy

golden peak
#

if you have guan yu you dont need launcher

#

works better with zag special

snow hull
#

15%?

#

Sure I'll try

golden peak
#

odds of getting is pretty low especially unmodded though

limpid mountain
#

bow pb but my build felt somewhat weak

#

i guess flurry shot is makes it tougher to load casts

Flurry is the best hammer for Hera

Also use pride instead of legacy

#

Also finished with 2 HP 0 DD shadefear

after a certain point it doesnt really take any effort to get a sub6

only if you're croven

it should be good enough for a sub8 right

And charon was very kind this run

golden peak
#

aspect of charon

limpid mountain
#

does charged shot work as I think it works on beo ? basically turns it into hera bow ?

golden peak
#

yes with aoe

limpid mountain
#

alright so thats likely to be the best hammer then right ?

golden peak
#

yea

sterile falcon

alright, im definetely going a bit slower then you on that, i got about 35 hours and 20ish achievements

This run was so cursed

golden peak

i have an even more cursed run comingright up 🧌

pallid sundial
#

No hammer in tart, no boons, no heart rend, dio aid at like ely, C11 and C12 being unarmored numskulls (or similar late chambers, but I think it was really back to back), forced coin room while I had the curse of chaos, no hermes in aspho, second hammer at the end of ely, second hermes in styx, stopping me from taking an artemis boon, miniboss rooms in styx being heart and coins while the shop had only poms and heart when I needed boons sooo much

#

The game HATES me. And rn it's reciprocated.

chiron gameplay moment OMEGALUL

chiron has no AOE damage, but it doesn't influence hammers and hermes being one whole biome late

start tdash

prolly the right call

but again : that was not the issue

#

Oh, I also had zag saying "must be the last of this lot" on 2nd/3rd wave, then another wave spawns ???

I like pos special on Zeus aspect without sea storm, but to make that work you have to have a LOT of support (razor shoals, hydraulic, Chaos boons for special, poms, RD, and/or Pos lego) and explosive return is basically a requirement

That's an avoiding td3 problem lmao

i wouldn't use ap if it was particularly boon dependent, normally i use cf2 js1

i wonder if i wouldve earned that anyway

Tbf Styx tends to have a lot of gold pots I think

I think that's like 60 bucks worth of ichors and jerky

before december i had 2-3 per day

i get so tired after one run i need a break before i do another one usually

for me the average run length though is 1 to 3 min

but my runs are like 20+ igt so

and a completed run is like 14 16 rta

also ive been playing since EA start and people who have been playing way after release have waaaay more runs than me which is pretty nuts

You can't get 64 before the credits

You don't unlock em4 until afterwards

It also isn't considered a valid run since you never get the run complete screen

smair shield stall

#

also minotaur rush underrated

limpid mountain
#

minotaur rush is eh

#

i thought it was strong when i first started but it actually is underwhelming

dense wadi
#

It’s kind of fun for a joke run with sudden rush or something but definitely not a good hammer

#

Most shield hammers are duds imo, especially compared to charged shot, explosive return, and sometimes sudden rush

bold jolt
#

charged shot, mino rush, and sudden rush is bow at home

#

or rather better bow

snow hull
#

Power shot is fairly consistent I found

#

480 damage without boons, is great

#

Plus bow range and shield safety

bold jolt
#

The issue is that if you miss the window because you need to block damage then it's a drop in damage

#

And you're better off getting better positioning and using iframes and spamming min charge cshots

snow hull
#

For speedrunning purposes, sure

#

Safety wise I found it good just for an early clear

bold jolt
#

I mean sure but also since it works for speed it's still just better lmao

#

It's still really safe too

that's what I care about. Suffering squirtdevious

strong ravine
#

where are these from though

#

seems very ancient

#

unseeded means there was nothing known about the run

#

seeded is when you find a good seed and give up to keep it

#

or route it out

#

while unseeded has deaths before

#

whats wrong with modded

bold jolt
#

if your goal is to just do unmodded runs then that's fine, but modded runs are still valid as long as the modpack used is valid

#

or rather just mods used being valid

That looks very outdated

#

LETS GOOOOO heat 32

heavy solar
#

It’s not adding much to a dio build

#

And artemis really just dilutes your duo pool

still shadow
#

imo it'd add quite a bit of damage, as the only source of crits i had before was pressure points just adding 3%

#

the crits were doing work

strong ravine
#

splitting headache sucks

still shadow
#

artemis can be insane with the right boons

strong ravine
#

not worth it

heavy solar
#

You need too much for splitting headache to do anything notable

#

crits are good, yes, but your chance is so low even after you add in splitting headache

strong ravine
#

although i guess its chiron so any ideas of a good build are out the window

#

do what you want

heavy solar
#

and so you dilute the pool of duo boons you can get by heart rend and splitting headache, when the biggest boon you could possibly get is low tolerance

still shadow
#

after splitting headache i would be getting a 15% chance instead of 3%, that's a fairly big increase, especially because i had heart rend

strong ravine
#

mark would be better

heavy solar
#

With splitting headache, heart rend, and pp

strong ravine
#

and you aren’t getting many procs of splitting headache anyways

#

it can’t make hangover crit

heavy solar
#

3 boons for less effectiveness then 1

#

2 of those boons actively get in the way of you finding the 1.6 multi

#

and 2 of those boons don’t matter to your main source of damage if you don’t have pp (hangover can’t crit without it)

#

and 1 of those boons doesn’t matter to your main source of damage if you don’t have splitting headache (or a far better crit chance boon like hunters mark)

#

Hmmm

strong ravine
#

and all of these boons will not help the fact that they are on the aspect of chiron

heavy solar
#

So personally I would just avoid arte, as much as she can be extra scaling, she’ll usually end up just being a hinderance in your low tolerance search

#

This goes for all hangover builds btw not just chiron zagpls
