Oh ye ye

#

Why do they make the game faster to beat?

willow bronze
#

EM2 makes the lernie arena smaller so it's faster. FO2 makes enemies move, attack, and spawn in faster

#

the last one is most important for FO2 but attack speed also helps proc jolted more often

torpid terrace
#

Yeah I'll put those next time 👍 Was just having fun that run trying to gain as much darkness as possible

spiral dock
#

That was really fast 😭

willow bronze
#

(Those settings will make runs pass quickly so more darkness)

True, thanks for the tips

Arthur 32 heat clear, killed some poor dude in elysium on a 4230 damage hit

at what point are you supposed to take lc then 🤔

serene phoenix
#

i have a friend who gets ice wine a freakish amount of times, so i kinda wanted to die when i got it myself and won immediately

primal crown
#

You ideally max it out from 32h lol

grave vector
#

ohh its not maxed i got it

#

i maxed it at 20 because i hated every other option

pallid sundial
#

It's pretty good to max relatively early

#

as soon as normal rooms start becoming a pain... Which, considering Elysium, might very well be 0 heat

grave vector
#

i just got used to it really easily, and it was fun

#

esp with athena dd

balmy carbon
#

this isnt that good of a victory its just me getting awful luck on chaos lol

thoughts on the build

#

Where hermes

pearl rain
#

sold his boon cause i was forced to 😔

primal crown
#

Also at most I'd swap aphro into atk/ares vengeance boon
That way you get the full benefit of Cshot

#

Also avoid dread flight (tho idk if I have the icon wrong lol)

unfortunately chaos is not fun

and sucks

#

nah it is when you get everything right

#

and the odds arent againts you

strong ravine
#

that build does not look like everything going right

#

i think actually 0% of these boons are good

pearl rain
#

why tho hedes hp was melting 😭

strong ravine
#

i guess sweet surrender is fine

pearl rain
#

huh

strong ravine
#

can u estimate how long the fight lasted

pearl rain
pearl rain
strong ravine
#

these are very conflicting statements

#

but id still be shocked if this build even hit 60 seconds

#

there’s just no damage

pearl rain
#

there is a lot tho

strong ravine
#

is there

pearl rain
#

but hades was getting cooked i assure you that

strong ravine
#

i doubt this

#

you had 1 thing and it was charged shot

ember heart
#

i mean it worked out in the end

pearl rain
#

yeah and i didnt even loss life

primal crown
#

Jazz fully honest, can you stop with this everytime a build like this is posted

pearl rain
#

i went there with 120 hp

strong ravine
#

what do u want me to say tho

#

i’m giving my thoughts

#

my thoughts are that the build is not good

pearl rain
#

for real your thoughts man

#

but sometimes its not just about killing hades in instant i had fun with that fight and it was enought

bold jolt
#

it's not particularly hard but you just choose not to do that every time lmao

Using mods is perfectly fine but dont go around trashing the builds of those who dont use mods

Haven't played the game for a month or two and came back in with this run... I think I got theseus and asterius in about 30 seconds

I DID IT

I BEAT IT WITH THE ONE LIFE THING ON FROM THE MIRROR

Oh shoot my last message had the victory screen for a very different run

This is what I meant to send (dash strike go brrr)

my first real attempt at eris rail after like over month, got decent rng but my aim is incredibly rusty

TIL having too many things on your boon screen makes the victory info get a little (or I assume possibly a lot) covered.

probably easier if you use a different everything

if you use any aspect in the game other than gilgamesh that’s a better option

Then just throw on some extra heat

ooo thanks for the tip!

primal crown
quaint raptor

an improvement

willow bronze
#

Also don’t take lrod

quaint raptor
#

nah - both my hammers only offered special buffs :(

willow bronze
#

It makes it harder to pick up casts

#

Rip

#

Also try not to dilute your boon pool so you can put as many Poms into cast as possible

quaint raptor
#

i shall keep that in mind

willow bronze
#

Common gets value through lvl 10-12

quaint raptor
#

I shall attempt another run and see how it goes with all this new stuff down :)

#

If you’re speedrunning the speedrunning server has lots more advice from people who actually play Beowulf

slowly working my way up to 32 heat i guess

why not just go for it now? it's not at all as hard as it seems

go get 'em

willow bronze
balmy carbon

#

yeah idk if i'd go straight to 32 but maybe hit 24 and then 32

balmy carbon
#

ill probably just add LC4 to whatever i just did first

willow bronze
#

seems like a plan

golden peak
willow bronze
#

FO2, BP2, LC4 is very standard for heat

#

then you can add points in HL, JS, etc

Did you get any extra casts or cast bonus dmg from chaos?

Finished my 20 heat run for Rail! It was probably the easiest Hades fight I've ever had. Can you guess why?

primal crown

Clockets moment but also

#

Why routine inspection

tawdry radish
#

Thought it would be better than upping health or damage

primal crown

Missing out on rerolls/dark foresight sucks

Early hard labor is chill/could start practicing forced overtime too if you wanna go higher

Ok, I took a break from hades, a month or so, and the first run after I did this.

With the chaos egg

#

Since I wanted to do the challange

ember heart
#

aphro spear... you were using the charge attack?

agile cedar
#

Nope

ember heart
#

bold

#

but well done

agile cedar
#

Aphro is pretty great in my opinion

#

Her damage buff is great plus she has an effect where weak enemies get more damage

agile cedar
ember heart
#

i mean +100% on 20 damage sounds awesome, but it isn't much, quick little damage weapons prefer damage boosts like zeus or ares where you get a set amount of damage on top (like lighting + jolted is very popular or ME) where as slow heavy weapons prefer percentage boosts

but yeah if it works it works

#

is the normal attack even 20? but i think you get my point

agile cedar
#

I'll definetly try diffrent combos with time, but I gotta say that I like aphro

ember heart

pretty sure i only had one hermes?

oh and the one that gives you some move speed after a fast clear

That's his keepsake

yeah one hermes then

Getting rush delivery from hermes would've been perfect

First win with the fists

mhm that's uh

very interesting

#

tbh i'm questioning how you even manage to pull this off 😭

agile cedar
#

I don't know myself😂

#

I even had 2 death defiances left, and I didn't refill them once

#

Though to be fair it was without heat

#

Since I hadn't beat hades with the fists before

#

I think what helped was the thingy that made weak enemies receive more damage

#

And the thing from demeter that made me do more damage when I didn't have my throw things

#

And then I just hit my special with the occasional attack and throw to reapply weak

How many of yall use stubborn defiance?

Ever since I could first unlock it’s all I use

I have a much more faster pace chaotic style so I think I benefit from it as I’m trying to clear runs as fast as possible and I take a lot of dmg

Oh okay

Still not using your death defiances is a crazy feat

You’re not really at a risk of dying when speedrunning so DD is taken so you can be more aggressive in bosses

What heat

Like ten heat

willow bronze

Ah I see

I mean, you can still take chaos

But it’s because honestly I’m just a idiot who likes to take dmg lmao

Just be mindful about when to pop SD for health

Asphodel magma alone

You can use troves, magma, and traps to reset

I like it for that too

#

Bc like with death defiance like yes it heals more but I’ll be like on 1 hp in the next encounter cause I didn’t buy heals or took chaos boons

#

So I like to reset my health with SD

willow bronze

Yeah sounds about right

At 3 star if I destroy every pot per room i can find one every other or 3rd room (just like a single piece of food worth 10 health)

at least for me?? bc its like 6% but i see them ALOT

I only won this because it was heat 0 and I outdamaged hades

Like, I lost 2 death defiances by just spamming the shot thingy (cast?) and getting them back with the special

#

Which then also did damage because of artimis' thingy

agile cedar
#

Won with four heat. The next heat levels will be with the bosses ugraded

#

The run did not go as I wanted. I Originally wanted aphro for my special and zeus for my normal attack, but zeus refused to give me his normal attack, so I had to improvise

This time it was the max. rarity ares special, the thing hammer thing that made it pingpong to up to 7 enemies giving them all doom, and the aphro ares duo boon making weak enemies that receive doom get half the doom damage every few seconds

#

Also this is weird, but it lets me get rewards for heat 4 even though I just did that

#

Was the one before that heat 3? Or is this one heat 5? Or is it just a glitch?

#

Or did I do heat 4 and it gave me the rewards for heat 3?

#

But I think I did heat 3 already?

willow bronze
#

Yeah

agile cedar
#

Ok

agile cedar
#

Because I don't see it

ember heart
#

in the administration you can look at all past runs (failed or not)

willow bronze
#

I don’t think that datapoint is saved

#

But yeah you can look at total run history and count I guess

ember heart
#

that's the closest i'd say

agile cedar
#

Alright thanks

#

Ok I know what happened

#

I never beat the game with one heat

#

Then I beat it twice with 2 heat

#

And I also never beat it with 3 heat

#

Just once with 4 heat

golden peak
#

do 32

agile cedar
#

Ehhhhhhhhhhh

#

I don't think so

#

At some point maybe

#

But I'll work my way there

golden peak
#

yes

pine dust
#

Finally got heat 40 done and I'm pretty proud about the build I got: I've been trying to use Hestia's aspect but found it difficult to deal damage during the reload so I tried using Ares' doom and it worked. 🙏

primal crown
#

Damn

pine dust
#

I didn't know that battle rage took effect when breaking Hades' skull projectiles too

do you have the demeter boon that makes healing heal more

pine dust
#

yeah I got nourishing soul

#

was pretty lucky, I got it right before the fountain at the Styx

#

the strong drink I mean

summer cove
#

ok yeah i was gonna say

#

the secret 33% lasting consequences

pine dust
#

indeed

left mist
#

i HIGHLY didn't expect to make it out alive

pine dust
#

ooh flurry slash

#

I always want that hammer upgrade but it never shows 🫠

strong ravine
#

dont worry its really really bad

#

the best sword hammer is double edge

#

flurry slash is actively negative

#

and p much run ruining instantly

left mist
#

I never played a round with the blade since my first few before I unlocked the spear
and somehow I managed to make it thru

pine dust
#

I just want the feeling I got having that and attack healing with hermes attack speed :,^)

golden peak
pine dust
#

was a crazy run

strong ravine
pine dust
#

I'd show a clip of me using it but I don't think we can right? Just photos here?

golden peak
#

you used literally wrong

strong ravine
#

flurry slash is literally unplayable

left mist
#

I mean i made it through with it- soo?
granted my playstyle is acting like the floor is literal lava at all times

strong ravine
#

and completely run ruining

#

it ruins every dash strike

left mist
#

i never dash strike regardless
at least on purpose

strong ravine

Oh no! Y'all are murdering jazz zagcry

left mist
#

granted I dash more than i walk so it probably just happens without me knowing

golden peak
#

i prefer flurry slash

#

it is the best sword hammer

left mist
#

that looks crazy
tbh i had to choose between cursed slash and flurry
but i was like
already struggling with health so I chose it instead

strong ravine
#

cursed slash is also completely garbo

pine dust
#

Fair enough, it was hail mary kind of build anyways :,^)

opaque nebula
#

i rlly wanted to fight hades with it but i think i got cut down in the elysium boss

#

Holding a prayer circle so u will find it in ur next daedalus upgrade

Bro, you were zooming thru those chambers

compact basalt

trying to find a screenshot of my best run and found this

pine dust
compact basalt
#

well I cant find the actual end screen which is a bummer

opaque nebula
#

Tbh i was fine fighting things from the front

#

Like I’d stand right in front of purple lernie and deflect its wave attacks back instantly

left mist
compact basalt
#

a strat I found was to take the shield, go aphrodites charm, and then go for nothing but poms

#

then try and get pulverizing blow

#

it worked a lot

opaque nebula
#

U madlad

compact basalt
#

ive gotten a couple times under 14 mins with that strat, its my #1 go to ever since I saw it somewhere

opaque nebula
#

That’s insane 😭😭 i tried the heat challenge where you have 9 min to clear one layer of the underworld and still couldn’t make it wdym you cleared it in 14 min !!!!

strong ravine
#

if u practice u can get under 6 or 5

opaque nebula
#

I might try it next time i played because i’ve just been trying to get boons for the prophecy list but it’s starting to get rare to see untouched boons

#

Mr Speedrun i don’f have the soul for that just yet

compact basalt
#

also just find a build that works quick for you

#

I personally could never get the bow or the rail sub 20 mins, but some people go crazy with those

opaque nebula
#

I will remember these words the day i decide to do a speedrun but for now i love fishing too much

compact basalt
#

fair enough

#

funnily enough, out of the very few things I have never been able to do, I am still missing 1 fish

opaque nebula
#

Brooo

#

Do you know which one

#

The ever elusive underworld fish…

#

Or overworld

#

I’ve still yet to find a fishing spot in the overworld so if it’s from there i get u

compact basalt
#

Underworld one

#

1st layer I think, the rare one

#

Ive caught over 100(i think) fish, never seen it

opaque nebula
#

That thing has heard of ur reputation and is hiding from you

#

You have to seek it out

#

A bot in here did not like me referencing a certain infamous whale so i guess i’ll just call you that fish’s Ahab

agile cedar
#

This worked relativly well

quartz sand

it REALLY did

vagrant bloom

wayyy too lazy to upload this to my phone but i was looking through my switch screenshots and found a pretty silly run

i think the crit chance was funny though

Deadly strike at home

This is was actually the highest damage ive ever had on beowulf, and it happened to be on a 32 heat run 😭

I think im ready for 40 heat

You got this!

plucky spruce
#

what is the best aspect of all weapons?

#

oh sorry wrong channel

balmy carbon
#

this was scary !

primal crown
#

Didn't even use SD dusa

#

Also for beo swap to fiery presence (or in general lol)

agile cedar
#

Aphro supremecy!!! No, in all seriousness I didn't want a basically all aphro boon run, but luck dictated it to be like this

balmy carbon
#

i mean beo can get backstabs right ?

#

like the casts

primal crown
#

No

balmy carbon
#

ah

#

well then ill use fiery presence next time

agile cedar
#

Although it doesn't really work that great I've tried

willow bronze
#

It’s best hammer on Zeus

agile cedar
#

My first 40 runs were shield runs

#

Then I switched to spear and I beat it in like 5 after that

willow bronze
#

Well how were you playing shield

#

Zeus is arguably the safest since you can have something do damage while you’re blocking

agile cedar
#

I find it to boring to just sit behind the shield blocking until every thing is dead

agile cedar
#

And that was the one I've tried that didn't work like I wanted it to

willow bronze
vagrant bloom
#

not high heat but this is the kind of build that makes me wanna take a break because it’s not happening again for a while

#

oh that’s a pb for shield cool

sand verge
#

Arthur is super fun, got the best hammer combo (I think?), went for heart rend / deadly reversal, only heart rend came up but it was crossed out. Somehow got fully loaded again today.

vagrant bloom
#

ooh i should try arthur

sand verge
#

I feel like it's mad underrated - it hits like a truck and gives you extra hp too

vestal pagoda
#

I like Arthur solely for the fact that it forces you to think a bit before you swing since it's not so rapid in dealing damage

#

the extra HP is nice too

willow bronze
#

and dedge still king unfortunately

#

breaching after that

floral jay
#

My best run so far LOL i like the fists a ton

primal crown

I'm a bit surprised you went overtime with that build

but lvl 3 common doom kinda sad

Guan Yi is so fun to play with, my second favorite aspect rn. And i had to actually dodge the attacks this time, did not get carried by the run (just by the Guan Yi, lol)

just throw on aphro on attack and you'll be good to go

i do like my hestia

I just beat EM4 for the first time! And got to try out a powerful build. Feels great!

tripe duo boon

idk how i managed to get them

#

also artemides call is just op

lost venture
#

Third one is probably the strongest there, 4th one is for story

#

iirc

sharp agate
#

What is that clear time bouldy

raw swan
#

any percentage attack works at a decent rarity you don’t really need to bother forcing it

bold jolt
#

Tdash start hestia is better if you're confident in your abilities imo since you're playing much closer and more dangerous for more damage

#

Which is fine but could be difficult

#

High risk high reward type of thing

raw swan
#

yeah but what happens if you get a 40 elite numbskull room with no tdash

#

tdash is also lower variance is all because you won’t just get destroyed by certain rooms

bold jolt
#

I mean that is only tart so you're not exactly losing that much of a run

raw swan
#

i think high % attack force is fine but feels worse to play

bold jolt
#

It's unfortunate but epic aphro atk start would give better bossing in the future

raw swan
#

true

bold jolt
#

Both work tho

willow bronze
#

Idk I take ricochet so that’s not much of a problem

raw swan
#

for dps artemis is generally better anyways

willow bronze
#

Not really

raw swan
#

if you’re consistently hitting then yeah

#

but it’s a moot point anyways all 3 work

willow bronze
raw swan
willow bronze

And since you don’t know whether you’re going to hit a breakpoint or not, you can’t plan your way through a room

i've been chasing a sub 10 for a few months now 😭 never got this close the seed always held me back even tho i'm sure i could improve a lot skill wise too

this seed was so good i cannot even believe it

#

idk how to screenshot 😭

alt f1 if you're using nvidia i think

but dude i had ares item thing but i got a hammer right out of the gate, followed by athena right away

ember heart

keys than and 2 sack? perhaps even a hades challenge room?

#

ykw makes me sad rn?

sand vessel
#

2 sack, than in Elysium

ember heart

if you used FO2 that probably would've been a sub 10...

sand vessel
#

im not that good 😭

primal crown
# sand vessel

Use fiery so you can one shot witches in tart (tho it may need high confidence too I don't remember)

ember heart
#

yeah it does

sand vessel
#

i struggle pretty bad w FO2

sand vessel
#

im using high confidence

ember heart
#

i understand, but i'd say it's arguably better to get used to FO2 straight away so that you don't have to get used to it twice

sand vessel

i had like 3 chaos gates

and once you do it's pretty easy imo

Is there anything else I could use to really make the Hestia rail shine? Maybe just a skill issue, but I've read it can do great stuff

i had a 145 streak and "ruined" it to die 50 times in a row so i can get the unseen one rank 😭

you dont really, but you can only do one rank per run

50 ranks, so

I had such a bad streak for so long cuz I reset a lot but then I learned there’s a title for a 10 streak, so I got that and then gave up on my streak again lol

Ranks are separate from streaks

You have to spend darkness and other meta resources for ranks

Ohhhh, my bad. I just misunderstood the previous msgs, sorry!

Don’t worry about it

why dark regen

if you want to go fast, use nemesis, turn on high confidence, don't use dark regen, and play with FO2 and EM2

golden peak

i started out with arthur

charred belfry
#

Still leveling up Nemesis on this file

charred belfry
#

On level 2 nemesis and sack 4, got a 20m run

agile cedar
#

Ok, I said last time that it was my easiest run. I was wrong. This is my easiest run. Normally I have ~30 min per run. This time it was 21.

compact basalt
#

I love the german names for the boons

#

also, thats quite a jump

agile cedar
# compact basalt also, thats quite a jump

I know, right? And the run didn't even start that good. I originally took the Zeus boon for my attack and the poseidon one for my special, but then I got their duo boon in the charon shop before the first boss, so I sold the Zeus attack took the poseidon keepsake, and changed the reward to the first room until I had poseidon. After that everything went pretty great

compact basalt
#

Yeah, that checks out. The duo is quite good looking to me

#

that with the rückendreckung is practillz 3 hits for 1

agile cedar
#

Yeah, everything worked out just right to be a perfect build

#

I walked to hade s with full life and 3 death defiances, so I just stood there anihilating his hp, until he was dead.

#

Didn't even bother to dodge a lot.

compact basalt
#

i just noticed the stichtgestöber too. The spear just got turned into a drill

agile cedar
#

Yeah, the build was perfect

agile cedar
#

This turned into 3 half-builds but it worked.

I am a big fan of heartbreak strike + shield

so i’m just doin some easy clears to get it to 100 for the screenshot and then i’m doin higher heat

Oh nice

#

All this is giving me the itch to boot hades back up
