also purging unneeded boons is a bit risky due to uc, but ig on hestia its fine

willow bronze
#

no they were purged at mid biome

#

I don't think I sold anything otherwise

#

Well bc two of my athena boons were extra SD

#

and I mostly went for health and poms

Did you take plume, get epic Rd, then take off the plume lmao

i was trying to catch hermes' favor dialogue

Unfortunate

honest vessel

no dialogue kekhands

#

w8 how do you know i picked plume from that screenshot

bold jolt
#

you have rd without either prereq boon greater haste or hyper sprint

but taking plume is also a prereq for rd

i bet jolted isnt even of any use for fighting dades

#

I mean with electric shot alone, kinda lol

honest vessel
#

electric shot doesnt even lodge half the time kekhands

#

is the better spell for lodging poseidon cast?

primal crown
#

Aphro/athena usually

honest vessel
#

aphro kinda tricky to lodge unless maybe its suitable for poseidon sword combo

primal crown
#

Aphro is good cuz dmg but I don't like her cast cuz of the short range lol

#

I just do athena's

honest vessel
#

damn turns out i also got 0 fish this run

#

i could have just gone achilles spear too probably if not poseidon sword

honest vessel
#

guan yu snagged all the good stuff for poseidon sword kekhands

Common boons all around but I've always wanted to do a crit build and it was super fun having base damage hitting for 450 and crits all over the place for 1.5k+

in the mirror swap privileged status to family favorites and fated authority to fated persuasion

boreal wolf
#

I know this is supposed to be "Victory" boasting, but uhh, I got pretty close. Was a really good run, lots of damage output.

#

I just need to take less damage during the final fight.

strong ravine
hot dagger
#

If only you'd been 0.04s faster zagsad

boreal wolf
#

I picked some random boons but I have actually no idea what won me this round. Like, the lightning strike is nice but it lacked just a little oomph by itself.

strong ravine
#

also

#

like 50% global

#

with jolted and zeus attack and call

#

and sea storm dash

boreal wolf
#

I thought that would be a nice-ish combo

leaden stag
#

FINALLY
A legit sub ten with proper modpack

little prairie
#

48 heat Hera thanks to this junk and 2 nem crests and a braid. So like 227 at 542% when ideally from behind. Casts doing over 1k, I'll take it.

Em2 actually makes the game faster where mm makes the game longer

strong ravine

your honor sentence him to beowulf

heavy solar

Honestly

#

Other improvements include

#

Your build (it just looks like you took whatever you could find)

strong ravine
#

you can fit all the problems right here

What you put your poms in

if u have beo unlocked i have faith you can go way faster

heavy solar
brisk flume
strong ravine
#

well

heavy solar
strong ravine
#

they have at least (number of aspects they have minus 1 if they have chiron) faster aspects

heavy solar
#

In plain english

#

Gilgamesh is not the fastest aspect in the game by a longshot

#

not to say you can’t massively improve on your time by just changing your build while still using gilgamesh

brisk flume
#

No but I like the dashes and wanted to see if I could get 8 in total with Zeus’ dash

heavy solar
#

You would have a better shot at it but if you want to stick to gilga and get faster then #h1-builds-and-combat might be a better place to talk

#

And you definitely can get faster

#

Don’t say “this is the fastest I’ll ever get”, you have room to improve and grow

Hazard bomb is fun too

super fun build, I highly highly recommend it

there needs to be more deals for darkness

there are a few more uses

who even is that i dont think im even at that part yet'

at least 10?

post end-credits

#

Yeah is post credits so 10 clears

honest vessel
#

gigadades with arthur is still pretty hard hitting on my lifes

#

besides arthur and beo im not sure what other builds im good enough to dunk em4 dades with

#

"dunk" barely got dades with arthurkekhands

woven fox
#

What do you think about my vengeance build? I think i did not too bad on this one. There is room for improvement (it is sad i didn't get zeus vengeance boon) and suggestion are welcomed. I'm still not to shure if in a revenge build abyssal blood could be stronger than infernal.

heavy solar
#

You should have the effect of immediately proccing and dropping doom

#

when hit

#

order matters since that’s the order the vengeance boons will take effect iirc

#

Avoiding openning curse of longing, it really isn’t effective

summer cove
#

first sub 10 wooo

#

also rip dash/jolted poms

was gonna ask where jolted but ap2 explains everything

honest vessel
#

hold down m1 --> ??? --> 400+ damage every shot

honest vessel
#

not even em dad but idk rama doesnt feel as good to use for me, super dio bomb does the heavy lifting during the boss fights against theseus and dades

#

is this just some lack of dash strike skill issue or do i need to tack even more attack dmg boons

#

vs armor is also a pain

pallid sundial
#

dash strike is even more important on Rama than other bows. And it's vital on other bows already.

#

also your build is LOADED on dio side omg, no surprise you rely more on that

honest vessel
#

what additional boons could i have loaded for rama bow?

#

eitherway maybe this is a sign i should take on superdad with herabow instead

#

does leveling it up make the dio bomb dissipate and drop the cast stone faster or something?

#

afaict without zeus or dem duo the bomb doesn't have any dot

heavy solar
#

the fog stays for a set period of time

#

It only works for casts that lodge

honest vessel
#

so hera level does nothing

heavy solar
#

Well

#

It does

#

Because

#

You don’t use trippy shot bouldy

#

/flare

honest vessel
#

idk i had like a couple good runs with trippy hera

heavy solar
#

heartbreak shot is the one you really want to be working with

honest vessel
#

aphro flare?

#

does it have aoe

#

i guess it lodges

heavy solar
heavy solar
#

Trippy flare is the only flare hera has

honest vessel

how does aphro cast work on hera
it makes the wave spread on impact?

ME build without ME

#

explosive upper did a lot of work though

white mesa
#

no boon run with probably the worst rng ive ever had

#

after 49 total clears, the only time ive had to go through all 5 tunnels for the sack is when i have no boons in this run

honest vessel
#

greedy almost got me killed kekhands

#

no chaos cast or stone buff is probably only bad rng in the run

primal crown
#

Tbf at least you were using infernal

honest vessel
#

i mean more drops more dmg right

#

would be deader if i only drop one stone at a time

#

also maybe id have preferred to play it safe with artemis call

quiet lark
#

you want to have stygian as it works well with glacial glare

woven fox
#

Damn beowulf slaps, if you manage to play with his slow combo.

strong ravine
#

on infernal

woven fox
#

Infernal?

strong ravine
#

infernal sou,

woven fox
#

Yeah, i heard about the bug that make the second shot as strong as the first with beowulf

#

I will probably try for my next run

#

Apparently you also get twice the upgrading pom value displayed on trippy flare so this was worth trying too.

strong ravine
#

on trippy u still want mirage

willow bronze
#

Charged shot also speeds up the combo

#

More so than sudden rush

woven fox
#

Or even at all

strong ravine
#

yeah thats the issue with trippy

#

its so rng reliant

quiet lark
#

swift strike is the one that makes you start blocking faster

willow bronze
#

Wait really? I could have sworn that it increased the charge speed

quiet lark
#

it increases the speed at which the charge extends

willow bronze
#

I c

vapid moon
#

i know alot of people have beat way harder challenges but i just did 100% damage which i think is cool

snow hull
#

then god's pride and fated persuasion are much better

#

there are also easier pacts

vapid moon
#

no because big shiny super cool legendary and duo are flashy

snow hull
#

fair enough

vapid moon
#

the flashier the cooler i feel

woven fox
#

God pride is the one that increases luck for epic boons?

willow bronze
#

Pride/legacy is context dependent

primal crown
#

Yeah

willow bronze
#

So is authority/persuasion but 95% of the time you want persuasion

snow hull
#

legacy use is pretty rare i think

#

like chiron, achilles maybe? i might be wrong

primal crown
#

Beo mostly

willow bronze
#

Beo speedrunning

snow hull
#

you could justify it on me maybe

willow bronze
#

Yeah that too

#

Common ID is kinda bricking the build though so it’s really a tradeoff

woven fox
#

Beo wants mirage shot too much

snow hull
#

pride is nice for chaos % though as well

primal crown
#

Pride ME is for hermes/doom

woven fox
#

I am realising that I might be taking legacy way too often then.
I play it on most build where I want specific duo, which mean in a lot of cases.

primal crown

We should move to another channel first

what is tiny flare

#

chill beowulf build?

bold jolt
#

tiny flare happens when you sell your attack or upgrade the flare rarity on demeter or aphrodite flare

#

it reverts the radius to base cast radius

#

so rare crop not hitting it is much better lmao

I'm done. most I'll play the game is a few runs of freshfile every so often because I can not live without, as well as a few more runs on the 21st of february which is the whole reason I have the status I currently have, "French File"

someone should balance this game

for real balance this aspect

i just did that run zagcry i didnt even plan on doing it

# pearl rain i call it the vaporizer

So fun when it comes together. Try it out with stygian soul. Requires lucking into some extra casts to really feel good, but having 16 beams going at once is pretty lit.

rama and hera are much more technical than zag bow esp on kbm lmao

zag bow is a lot easier

#

to play at least, idk about sub8ing

pallid sundial

I can't imagine playing another bow than rama seriously. But that's just me. Still surprised all rama haters don't go for hera instead

It looks like the gear summary is overriding the victory summary. I supposed i found a new bug.

The victory summary moves so it won’t cover the boon menu

It sticks right to the side of it so when you have way less boons it’s way further left

is ri4 basically like fresh file but more weapon options and randomness?

ahhhhhh

that actually sounds worse ngl

you at least get hermes and hammers tho

and keepsakes

so like less randomness but more weapon choices

oh i didn't know there's no hammers and hermes at all in fresh file

yeah the stuff introduces over several runs

first hammer comes on run 3+, second hammer is introduced on run 4

and calls don't exist there either, get introduced as soon as you've met all gods once (I think) and played your last run with poseidon?

when i first played beowulf

i had just grinded for about a month to get a sub7 on hestia

it was a 6:57

my very first beowulf run completed was a 6:04

#

My goal list that I set one day before going on holidays (came back today):

  1. Sub 9 unmodded fists
  2. Sub 8.30 modded fists
  3. Sub10 a second unmodded weapon (probably shield)
  4. Sub9 that second one
  5. Sub10 all weapons
  6. Heat 32 all weapons
#

Done 1st goal this morning after SOOOOOO much work, and 2nd one after 2h of trying xd

#

are those in any particular order

bold jolt
#

well if you're going for sub10 shield, beo is the way to go lmao

ruby spade
#

I am trying for a beowulf sub 10

strong ravine
#

cause you can most likely knock out 32 heat all weapons in one run each at this point

fathom ember
#

So basically Ive never played modded before today. Cause I promised to myself I wont try goal 2 before I complete goal 1

#

Now I completed goal 2 but I will push it to sub8 instead of sub8.30 (with not too much pressure though, I will go to goal 3 whenever I want)

fathom ember
fathom ember
bold jolt
#

the other shields are pretty horrendous for speed lol

#

sub10able for sure but not great for unmodded since they have no firepower without cshot

#

beo wants cshot as well but at least it'd still have damage without it

fathom ember
#

BTW my 4th goal is wrong. I forgot to write "modded", just realized

#

I dont think my goals are very hard (except for the 1st one, wow I tried so hard)

if you're running IGT speed, disable TD3 in the pact

TD disables survivals, rooms in which the timer is otherwise paused

# burnt ember what is poing final in english

Rolling knuckle. I see this one as a pun.

It litterally means "final fist", like the last punch that will kill the enemy. But in French, "Point final" is also an expression to say "that's it", "end of the story". So Poing/Point final, same pronunciation, different spelling.
