It may be a little non-standard

to

say the least

😁

[visual vortex]

dear god

[heavy solar]

When you have no darkness, RI is just free heat

[blazing rapids]

aww man give me a victory screen! (on 6 streak btw)

[severe seal]

I think my all-times record was around 50 win-streak. And then I got really greedy and disrespectful with a dad and he punished me good.

[blazing rapids]

https://tenor.com/view/oversimplified-gif-19465890

[heavy solar]

Tbf

what are you doing with a win-streak other than settling for too low of a heat level

[severe seal]

I mean I was farming for the Unseen One, so low heat level is what was better to do anyway.

[severe seal]

Pretty accurate

[heavy solar]

🤔

Fair enough

[bitter skiff]

SPEAR DONE. 1 more sub 10 to go for all weapons 32 heat and sub 10

[visual vortex]

Thanks to whoever recommended smair on nemesis, even though I didn't get the best supporting boons it went superbly

And that's 32h cleared with all non-zag aspects

[blazing rapids]

boom

[cyan plank]

pffft not even close, destroyed dad 😂 🔥 💯

[bitter skiff]

32 heat and sub 10 on all weapons done!

[rain ruin]

Real gamer afterall

[steady temple]

bow 32 after not playing the game for a bit

[ionic turtle]

last 2 victories, and my first streak

[mental shell]

Feels good

Didn’t know where to post this

[blazing rapids]

damn charon hits like a truck I lost 2 dds to him

[serene phoenix]

not a run w but this is now the second time ive got to unseen one, this time on hell mode

ill do one more 32 heat run then i think i can acc retire from h1 after having 100%ed it twice and beating 50 heat

[willow bronze]

Not done until 64 tbf

[ionic turtle]

this run was really damn fun at the end, even beat my pb by 6 minutes

[golden peak]

🫡

[mental shell]

Turn up the heat maybe?

[cerulean lark]

oh god i am sorry for the terrible picture but this is probably the nicest hera run of my life, exit wounds + chaos cast boons as well

[blazing rapids]

lv 14 heroic crush shot goes hard

[lunar peak]

Collected all bounties for each weapon and got the third Skelly statue on Hell Mode!

[undone zinc]

got my first swiftness of hermes

[sharp basin]

But how are you ever supposed to hit me, old man?

[worn eagle]

Should've beaten the fight AFK (other than using call occasionally ig to stay at max dodge) :]

Dad's shockwaves and pots deal damage to him

[unborn flint]

i know its small heat but i just started playing a week ago or so. what an absolutely ridiculous build.

[sharp basin]

I wanted to, and I think it might have been possible with that Hermes boon that gives call charge slowly, but I didn't have that one.

I had to attack to build up the charge. I basically stood still, attacked for 10 seconds, and activated call (perma immune).

I am still looking for that AFK fight - one day haha...

[golden peak]

Taking damage charges call btw

[willow bronze]

what

[cyan plank]

3 seconds left on timer

[willow bronze]

plus 182 health in the bank

[cyan plank]

and skelly tooth

[cyan plank]

which is why this is more impressive

[golden peak]

It's not a competition

[cyan plank]

yeah
the fact he even did a 16 heat run on mobile is insane

[willow bronze]

So here, 182/5 =36 so you’d have 36 seconds to kill hades after timer runs out assuming you don’t take any more damage

[willow bronze]

🗿

[cyan plank]

[lunar peak]

Woah i found that the blitz disc is kind of difficult to use imo

[cyan plank]

it does need some practice to learn but once you do it's one of the best aspects to run at high heat

[golden peak]

Not even close

[willow bronze]

Nope

[willow bronze]

One of the nice things is that it’s still good if you’re not playing it well

[trim basin]

YESSSS FINALLLY YESSS I DIDNT THINK 16 WOULD END LIKE THIS

actually was tilted this entire run because i have overtime on BUT ITS DONE

[steady comet]

cool!

that happened such a long time ago for me...

[trim basin]

16 heat was seriously a mental tole

im never doing overtime again ive learned my leason dearly

[trim basin]

now im doing epilauge, this honestly is going to take forever

[steady comet]

that was a random god run

[trim basin]

bc idk if i can gift every time i see the gods or if its only once per run

[steady comet]

i just did

with the plume on for all the biomes

it was surprisingly really good

almost didn't get me

merciful end

just was having some fun

[trim basin]

i forgot i need to run that and get the 20 rooms for the acheivement

not even going to fovus on it honestly

[steady comet]

oh

[trim basin]

just going to play the game a little more upgrade keepsakes and get friendships

[steady comet]

i got it without even thinking about it

i did get the achievement that run though

yep

most of mine are fully upgraded

[trim basin]

realistically i could just run guan yu for it

or the super charged fists on gauntlets

[steady comet]

i haven't even bought 9 well items in a run...

i

'm dissapointed in myself

well of charon is really good stuff

yk i used to never buy well of charon

thought it was useless

[trim basin]

i forced that in a run

[steady comet]

btw that was a chiron run

(my favorite aspect

)

[trim basin]

i never use charons stuff but i did that at some point it was a pretty annoying run bc i didnt have money for heart

[steady comet]

oh

it's funny

i buy SO MUCH HEALTH most of the time and then i never need it

idk how much money i spend on hearts for no reason

i am a 200+ hour person on hades

and 100h on hades 2

...

[trim basin]

i have 45 but realistically i have 20

[steady comet]

oh

resets?

oh lol reallistically i have 150 hours in hades then

...

[trim basin]

no, i have the game open when im not playing it and if im busy i dont close game, so i only have 53 attempts with 45 hours on the game

[steady comet]

stupid resets

[steady comet]

why??

my computer can

't handle that

[trim basin]

bc i do it for every game, i dont close the game if im going AFK bc most of thie time ill come back and continue playing the game

[steady comet]

i play on a 10 year old laptop

[trim basin]

jeez

2040 GFX?

[steady comet]

so if i have anything demanding open it will lag like crazy

nahj

intel hd

...

[trim basin]

ohh, well ykw, atleast the computer is playing a good game

[steady comet]

5th gen intel

[steady comet]

yep

i play in 720p though unfortunately

cause it can't stand 1080p

but i'm used to it

still i probably get like 30 fps in 720p

but the game is to good to not enjoy

i don

t care

i have wanted a new computer for like 4 years by now

but at the same time i love this laptop

it is old and slow, but the screen and keyboard are really nice

[trim basin]

well if you can afford to put like, 5% of your paycheck to savings you should be able to afford it with time, and if your like me and you need to stop buying door dash, delete the app and put that money to savings

[steady comet]

cause it's a T series thinkpad

[trim basin]

only reason i was able to upgrade was because i stopped buying food from doordash

[steady comet]

uh

i'm 14

[trim basin]

hustle

[steady comet]

why would you do that

[trim basin]

lawn mowing shoveling

[willow bronze]

Food delivery is a scam

Make it yourself

[steady comet]

anyway i'm russian and live in france

[trim basin]

to save up for a 4080

[steady comet]

ah

[trim basin]

you can be a waiter at most resturants

[steady comet]

i don't have time for making money

stupid school

[willow bronze]

Pro tip: don’t mention your age online

[steady comet]

and btw this is the last day of the winter holidays

[steady comet]

ikik

[trim basin]

real, but i only like making food when i marinate it, so i'd basically be eating every other day bc i dont like marinating food every day its very time consuming

[steady comet]

so school starts tomorrow again... YAY!!!

[trim basin]

inless i marinate pork because thats a 12 hour

[willow bronze]

You could like

[steady comet]

don't want to go back to school

[trim basin]

you can get a job that allows you to work afternoon shifts so you can work after you get off school realistically

[steady comet]

why you talking about marinating food?

[willow bronze]

Marinate every day for the next day

[trim basin]

bc aspect said food delivery is scam and i explained why i use it

[willow bronze]

Lol

[steady comet]

i'm not even in high school yet and school finishes at 5pm

[trim basin]

why i had said "i dont like marinating every day its very time consuming"

[steady comet]

i can't legally get a job untill i'm 16

in france

[willow bronze]

Oh tru

[trim basin]

damn thats late asf, but in america we start school alot earlier so it makes sense

[steady comet]

wdym

when

[trim basin]

we start the school day at 6AM

[steady comet]

?

[trim basin]

end at 2:30pm

[willow bronze]

Uh

[steady comet]

uh

[trim basin]

uh

[steady comet]

in middle school?

[trim basin]

no highschool, middle school is 1hr later for both

America 👍

[steady comet]

we start at 8:30

for the entirety of school

from 3 years old to 18

we start at 8:30

[willow bronze]

Yeah I’ve always started at 8

[steady comet]

never thought of that actually

3 strangers talking about when school starts in different places...

[trim basin]

america dont like being like every body else, america is Quirky

[steady comet]

yep

[trim basin]

https://tenor.com/view/dima-dima-wallhacks-spin-spinning-dima-wallhacks-gif-17266124383603959559

[steady comet]

never been to the US

[trim basin]

dont recomend it most states dont have anything to do

[steady comet]

kinda want to go there someday

i mean just to visit

holiday

[trim basin]

you 100% can and nothing stopping you, i js dont like it bc im here to much

[steady comet]

NO WAY i'm living there

[trim basin]

ahh i see i see, good around the holidays

[trim basin]

LOLLLL its not as bad as people make it seem

trust

[steady comet]

giving up ACTUALLY GOOD health insurance? NAH

no offense, but that stuff is absolute crap in the US

[trim basin]

i forgot america is the only place we gotta pay for that stuff

theres people who break their bones(accidental) and wont go to doctor and just at home doctor themselves bc its to expensive type of stuff in america, wish we had free healthcare

[steady comet]

and that's just one of many reasons i'm not living there

[steady comet]

right..

oh

and i won't mention HOW MUCH GOING TO UNIVERSITY COSTS

[trim basin]

wdym?

[steady comet]

it's rediculous

[trim basin]

is it free in not america

[steady comet]

not completely i think

but cheap

[trim basin]

ik in america its you pay it off the rest of your life type of thing inless you get a really good job and make alot of money, but i thought every country was like that

[steady comet]

i'm not sure really

[trim basin]

i didnt do research on colleges because my plan was culinary

[steady comet]

or if you d*e before you pay it, your children get a lovely gift

!

[trim basin]

doesnt pass down dont worry

[steady comet]

really?

[trim basin]

nope

[steady comet]

i thought it did

anyway gtg

[trim basin]

bye bye 👋

[steady comet]

bye

[regal otter]

what is this chat for? i didn't get it

[willow bronze]

victory boasting

but it can get off topic

[regal otter]

oh, i see

what about this stickybot, he will never stop sending the same message?

[meager mantle]

perhaps the name, try clicking on its profile to see whats up

[willow bronze]

the point is to keep people from talking about hades 2 in the hades 1 channels

[regal otter]

oh..

[shadow shoal]

Bought a Split Pad and decided to test it

[visual vortex]

Accidentally took god's legacy instead of pride

Also, hades fight was damageless xd, albeit slow

Easy run overall actually

[willow bronze]

do 40 now :croven:

[visual vortex]

Maybe tomorrow, any tips for the pact?

[willow bronze]

my pact opinions would be given with the assumption that you use the shield lol

to block*

but HL5, CF2, (JS1, CP1 or RI1 or AP1)

[visual vortex]

Sounds good

I'll tag you if I manage to do it

might use ME that time tho, will see

no cshot though

[viral chasm]

I cannot believe I just beat hades on my 5th run

[golden peak]

lmao

[golden peak]

[hardy moss]

zeus!

[visual vortex]

@willow bronze @golden peak

First try, no DDs used on hades even without acorn xd

I didn't even get any good supporting boons for doom directly
I also messed up the 2nd athena DD since I forgot to die, but it wasn't necessary

Unironically I find this build way easier than most good weapons xd

Hades call fun

also to be transparent since I'm using mods, the only non standard mod I have is first boon epic, I guess it's sort of cheesy but it doesn't detract from the point since in theory i can just restart till I get an epic ares

But even the speedrun modpack settings are all set to vanilla aside from removing vormie'd, which again is only for the first boon

CP is scary tho, without ME the hades/heroes fight would've been very slow, I might try 50 just for fun if I get an idea for a pact

[golden peak]

First 40 with sigil into dad with doom special chaos is

Idekk what

Damn

[golden peak]

Yes this is the principle behind the speedrun modpack as well

It just guarantees the stuff you would reset for anyway

50 should be fairly easy if ur willing to use a idff aspect or weapon

[visual vortex]

oh no we're pushing this to the limit, first 50 with chaos (I'll give it like 10ish tries probably), I might try different builds but this one seems to sit well with me

[golden peak]

50 with chaos is fine but with ME doom special not so easy

[willow bronze]

Me too lol

I use those plus dps meter and starting boon selector to guarantee hammer start

[willow bronze]

Interesting

You may want to just keep those changes for 50+ so you don’t get sacked

Also congrats on 40. I’m very impressed

[golden peak]

[visual vortex]

Ooh dps meter seems nice

I probably wont' try 50 heat too soon, but if I succeed I'll tag the 2 of you

[willow bronze]

i think dps meter is on nexusmods btw

lmk if you want the file for first boon selector

it's compatible with the modpack and fbe

[heavy solar]

it is 👍

I just saw it earlier while browsing

[bitter skiff]

CUT PB by 20 seconds. 6m41

[glossy locust]

(thank you bot <_<u sorry!)

Better with flurry/twin

[blazing rapids]

I do have another run with twin

[sharp agate]

Hera is a super fun weapon and has a pretty nice learning curve

I love it

[amber granite]

i made this broken-ass build while high

also note the Aspect of Hestia that's not selected

[willow bronze]

thats just a normal hestia build

[amber granite]

but it's fun

(i'm really high rn)

[simple lily]

113,388 Darkness Remains...

And if my last 50 runs are any indication, I only need 87 more.

[golden peak]

Nice and nice

[golden peak]

[sweet hollow]

nope, I just got a pretty old screen

[golden peak]

I see

[sweet hollow]

that was the build, excuse that it's in polish tho

[golden peak]

Wow

[sweet hollow]

Fists + Demeter is a wonderful combo

[lethal crest]

Fair.

I only got as far as I have because I have a huge YouTube backlog to get through in the background.

[cyan plank]

if i can do 40 first try with these awful boons then 45 should be piece of cake

tried so hard to get static discharge, even picked demeter for cold fusion 😂

[fair imp]

finally won for the first time 🙏🙏

But it’s good for sniping witches and such

[light crag]

not a clear but a personal victoy: the list is complete
i was beginning to think that the savefile was broken bc i never got the chaos legendary

[hazy marlin]

I still haven’t gotten concentrated volley after 200 escape attempts otherwise I’d have this

[willow bronze]

That’s pretty wild

[hazy marlin]

I have like 30 bow runs

[willow bronze]

Have you tried to get it?

Oh

[hazy marlin]

Send help

[willow bronze]

Yeah that makes sense then tbh

[hazy marlin]

I hate playing bow so it’s even worse

[willow bronze]

Just keep doing bow runs I guess

Yeah me too, completely get you

[heavy solar]

Nice

very cool

Am a bit tired for big

[golden peak]

Not quite a victory, but it's still a mark of how much I have played this game.

Of course, as a Delta Specter, I still need 76,500 more darkness to truly be done.

the addiction consumes 🔥

But hey, I've already died five hundred times, what's fifty something more?

The lower guy would be me if I gave up now.
I've already knocked off the 6th digit on the total Darkness I need for Unseen One.

I've come this far, I may as well see it all the way through.

(Plus, it helps a ton that I'm getting caught up on Critical Role while I'm doing this.)

I forgot I had to the roll tart midbiome well to sell Dem special because I needed damage and took aphro attack lmao

So there could have been more

[inland mural]

Finally managed to get this ares cast build! Super fun.

[hazy marlin]

This is exactly what gamblers say btw

[lethal crest]

But gamblers are constantly being dragged along for a ride without actually getting a chance to examine the behind the scenes numbers.
I'm operating on completely transparent data with no delusions of what I signed up for. (Like I said, it's been a good excuse to catch up on a series I fell behind on.)

Gambers operate on faulty assumptions, such as that a 1 in 12 chance means a win will always happen every 12 times they try. I know for a fact that I'm less than 60k darkness away from the apex of this mountain, which means I'm already in the final stretch of the 325k total.
And unlike gamblers, I can't lose any progress I've made. Some runs will go better than others, but there is no change in progress except positive progress.

[hazy marlin]

😭

[amber granite]

somehow managed this. i could absolutely bump the heat up even further. managed to only use one death defiance the entire run and it was only because i got careless at the end.

also yes i did keep pomming heartbreak strike past the point of diminishing returns because i wanted to get it to 200% because i thought that would be funny

[lethal crest]

Which Rail aspect, did you do?

[amber granite]

hestia

[lethal crest]

Ah, I used Eris for my 32 heat run.

Cluster Rockets + Eris + Doom + Weak is really nuts when you manage to get it all to align.

[amber granite]

fair enough! i spent like 120 runs practicing trying to get no hit and i was able to get to theseus a few times so i thought i would try 32 heat with hestia

and like. i could probably do it at 40 atp?

[sharp agate]

250th sub 6!

[primal crown]

That's a lot of sub 6s

[hazy marlin]

Is this a second profile cause it says you only have 50 clears

Nice anyways tho

[sharp agate]

It's a max save file

It's not my own

[lethal crest]

Final stretch...

My recent runs suggest it will take around 40 more runs.
But I'm this close, now.

[willow bronze]

hades' bedroom

[golden peak]

😏

[cyan plank]

dude I'm sorry i actually forgor

[cyan plank]

i can definitely do 52-53 with more hard labor

but yeah first I'll probably do more 50 with other weapons/aspects

[golden peak]

wait

this was without. max hl

LOL thats crazy

[cyan plank]

I'm still not quite used to healing only with stubborn defiance so i prefer not being too fragile

[golden peak]

yeah i mean its cool

[tawny aspen]

First win

[sharp agate]

😌

[lethal crest]

Welcome to the struggle.
We have Necter .

[tawny aspen]

Thanks

[sharp agate]

😌 😌

[golden peak]

not bad, you will reach 32 soon 💪

dont give up

[hollow jacinth]

procrastinating going to sleep

[eager steeple]

this felt so good

[sweet hollow]

First sub15 run WOOOHOOO

[surreal skiff]

one of those "stumbled upon" runs that had me at 6 stygian casts lol

[cyan plank]

another ‼️

@golden peak

[lethal crest]

Only about 25 more Runs to go...

[golden peak]

Actually insane

[hazy marlin]

Why’d u rub stubborn instead of death

[cyan plank]

100% lasting consequences

stubborn defiance is a reliable way to heal

[hazy marlin]

True

[heavy solar]

It’s uber common for high heat runs

The status quo

[lethal crest]

It's kind of nuts how close I am at this point.

It should only take around 18 more runs, and that's with some safe rounding.

[cyan plank]

RAAAAH

the fists actually made me a better player, made me realize how careless i am with dash striking

so many attempts ended at tartarus because i held down the attack button while dashing, which gave me 0 iframes

[cyan plank]

gentlemen, it is done

50 heat run finished with every weapon!

huge shoutout to touch of styx dark 🙏

[golden peak]

Damn

[hollow jacinth]

That was quick

[willow bronze]

I think I’ve underestimated how detrimental ri1 is

[cyan plank]

dark foresight is insane

you don't realize how much it helps until you reactivate it

[willow bronze]

yeah i think i've been way too used to ri2 and 3

[heavy solar]

Starting a fresh save file really helps you understand

how night and day it is

[willow bronze]

see this would be the case if i wasn't used to ri3 already

fresh save file just feels like another day to me, and not in a good way

[heavy solar]

“Ff just feels like another day to me” gives big “to a monsrer like me, monster energy is just regular energy” energy

[raven violet]

what is "ri"?

[willow bronze]

Routine inspection pact option. It takes away your mirror talents

[tawny aspen]

Sorry for hating on you bow ur op asf

I just put all my right cicks on the bow and it did 1.5k dmg i think

[sharp agate]

Smokin' heroes

[cyan plank]

doesn't theseus spend like 5 seconds just being invulnerable?

can you bypass it if you just instantly delete his whole health?

[sharp agate]

It's about 2.5

[willow bronze]

you can't skip phasing with beowulf

[cyan plank]

implying you can skip it with other aspects? 🤨

[willow bronze]

best you can do is phase instantly and only wait for the phase

[sharp agate]

Rama stuff

[willow bronze]

rama can in some funny circumstances

[sharp agate]

Run control

[cyan plank]

no way, i want to see video proof of that 😂

[willow bronze]

shared suffering can basically bypass phasing instead of having it's damage limited by the phase

[cyan plank]

insta killing theseus sounds super satisfying

[worn eagle]

layerskip rama 😌

[lunar peak]

Wait what do ranks do

[heavy solar]

They’re purely cosmetic

[lunar peak]

Oh alr thanks

[heavy solar]

To get to the final one you’d had to have spent 325k darkness (alongside other resources), hence their server username

[lunar peak]

Damn that's insane

[surreal skiff]

👉👈

[worn eagle]

hooooooooly loaded

[hazy marlin]

Imagine the infernal burst damage

[surreal skiff]

interesting thought but stygian also gave me Bad News lol

[hazy marlin]

True

[bold jolt]

https://youtu.be/n32qYIzr4C0

[surreal skiff]

this feels like a fever dream to watch tbh

[cyan plank]

i assume "run control" just means generating the seed exactly how you want it?

still an acid trip run

[worn eagle]

you've got the idea, but it's even stronger than regular rng manip, as one doesn't even need to stay on the right seed to still get the same outcome (which makes playing significantly less of a hassle).

[lethal crest]

Final stretch, guys.

Only 10 or so more runs to go, if I'm lucky.

[thin cloak]

how do you guys get to 5 minutes

[sharp agate]

Practice

lots and lots of practice

[cyan plank]

too much practice frankly 🗿

[thin cloak]

ive been practicing my fastest time recently was 14minutes

ive been playing for years and i cant push myself past 14 minutes

14 minutes In game

[sharp agate]

Have you ever watched sleepsouls intro guide?

I think it does a great job of summarizing the builds and some good tips for newer speed runners

[sharp agate]

I only have like 1200 hours lmao

Some other top runners have 3-5k

[sharp agate]

Another strong run

[lethal crest]

It's slightly less insane when you're listening to an audiobook or your YouTube backlog in the background.

[sharp agate]

I took arty keepsake into styx lmao

[sharp agate]

:(

[willow bronze]

ely 😔

[cyan plank]

so elysium is not only a big wall in high heat runs but also speedrunning 🤔

amazing area!!!

[willow bronze]

yeah

with em4 it tends to become the big delay and reason why you time out in em4, but yeah

big surprise that the longest region in the game tends to ruin runs

[bold jolt]

Tart is longer chamber wise technically lmao

[thin cloak]

i just have 80

but it feels so much more than that

edpecially since i cant get lower than 14 minutes so youd think id have more hours

14 minutes in game too, so probably about 30 irl

[heavy solar]

Even sub6 minute igt runs have like 20 minutes irl

If you watch any of them

[cyan plank]

the 2 minute rama run posted above is 14 minutes long

that says enough about the difference

[sharp agate]

Eh

It’s about 15 if there are no breaks or long pauses

[heavy solar]

I may have just clicked on a few outliers on speedrun.com then

And by a few I mean like 2

[steady comet]

no way

super fun run

was cool

(on hera)

7 casts is insane

(2 chaos casts and 2 artemis casts

)

[lunar peak]

not to flex but i beat the game on one heat

[sharp agate]

Funny build go brrrrrrrrrrrr

[sharp agate]

bleh

[cyan plank]

istg beowolf needs its own category

29 seconds hades fight is crazy

[sharp agate]

That's not even that good

It gets down to like 22 seconds on wr level fights

It's a little strong

[sharp agate]

29s styx :)

Good run too

[lethal crest]

I decided I should end my grind on a high note. And it looks like it turned out well enough.

That's that...
That's the highest Rank.

And it took no shortage of runs to get here, either.

Even Dad couldn't withhold his surprise.

And that's Zagreus for you,
Always striving to surpass what's expected of him and giving back to those who have helped him.

Indeed. And it is only those 4 Regions (6 if you count Chaos' domain and those fragments of Eribus) that we can traverse...
In this game, that is.

[slim seal]

Congratulations! Welcome to the Unseen One club!

[tepid canopy]

I'm trying to rank up any tips?

[lethal crest]

You'll want to stick close to Posiden and Chaos as much as you can.
The sooner you can get Ocean's Bounty and any Eclipse boons, the more Darkness you'll get from each boss you defeat afterward (assuming you're doing runs below the heat requirement for bounties).

And of course, you'll want to set Sysiphis as your Companion Summon, since he always drops a bit of darkness each time.

[golden peak]

just play a lot

[tepid canopy]

Ty

[golden peak]

its boring to play for darkness just play like usual and you will complete it naturally

[lethal crest]

Another protip, just because you grabbed one Eclipse boon from Chaos does not lock you out of getting a second one from them on that run. Granted, it's rare to get that to work, and the challenge of it might cost you the run when it comes to fighting the Champions or [Redacted], and those are where the Darkness payout is strongest.

But at the end of the day, you'll still probably find yourself having done over 500 runs in the game before you're done.
It's going to take a long while, so have something on in the background.

[lunar peak]

first win with hera : )

[sharp agate]

Run

[sharp agate]

I can't stand minirats

[sharp agate]

Cool runs ig

[sharp agate]

Fire styxdad

[fair imp]

 wow thats a lot of prometheus stones

[blazing rapids]

I was so close in failing the 30% butterfly achievement

[formal crow]

this was a really fun build

i just can't get myself to not click away from the victory screen

[steady comet]

i had no god keepsake for this run, had the plume on for the whole run

[steady comet]

i used to do that all the time

now honestly i prefer hera over chiron?

idk

i used to hate hera aspect

[steady comet]

i hate myself

2 seconds off from pb

it was not a very good run i suppose

build i mean

[willow bronze]

Reasonable bc Chiron is usually not that good

[steady comet]

Yeah

I thought it was powerful before i realised it’s not that good

[willow bronze]

It can be but Hera is usually a better aspect

[sharp agate]

Mirage :(

[sharp agate]

Another fire run

[viral fractal]

first time going for Merciful End build. Absolutely insane. I would like to see how this would go w/ a higher rarity Curse of Agony boon.

[sharp agate]

Sea Storm 😌

[golden peak]

o yeah thats like equivalent to a lvl 3 epic doom

[sharp agate]

:)

[sharp agate]

5:17 is clearly my time

[sharp agate]

Cooking

[grim cove]

first time beating 32 heat!

[sharp agate]

Yay

[sharp agate]

Furies wr and a new PB!

[cyan plank]

sub 5 🤑 🤑

[green leaf]

Decent build I just got

[fair imp]

would’ve gone faster but I spent most of that time talking to people in this discord lmao

[blazing rapids]

12 heat, new heat PB
I refuse to take EM3 until 14 heat

[sharp agate]

:/

[sharp agate]

Tres the second

[sharp agate]

:)

[sharp agate]

Most meh runs to ever meh

[sharp agate]

Great dad fight

Nice styx

[small comet]

The jump from Heat 20 to 32 couldn’t be felt really. Maybe I had God Mode…

(Controller had Stage 3 stick drift btw )

I’m so used to using imagur I didn’t realize I could just post it in here lol

Passion flare dad wr lfg

Also an insane dad fight

[sharp agate]

2,3,4

epic rd in tart on the 4th one

[fair imp]

4th win in the bag les goooo
also new PB :D

[golden peak]

screnshot

[worn eagle]

Fresh File HellMode in 22:02 (second place)

[heavy solar]

Is there any particular reason why FF is an RTA category?

[worn eagle]

used to be run as multirun

[heavy solar]

ah

[cyan plank]

Some players find a single key in the first run, suicide, unlock the bow and play with bow instead

[heavy solar]

Pretty based

That’s how I would do it ngl

[willow bronze]

rta moment

[viral fractal]

jerking off w/ this new weapon and absolutely strumbled into this crazy build. Never though posiden had any potential until I read what Sea Storm does

[heavy solar]

P.S. Posiedon has tons of potential on other weapons with tidal dash and sometimes flood shot/ flood flare

His strike and special not so much thou

But Super Soaker is an enjoyable Lucifer build

[viral fractal]

literally when I got posiden's attack boon "I HAVE A WATERGUN HAHA"

[heavy solar]

Oh gosh I didn’t even clock in that you had zeus special on Lucifer

silliest special to use because the lightning immediately blows up your bombs if only it didn’t really lack the damage of the other specials

[willow bronze]

Who up soaking they dad

[viral fractal]

I was just pressing buttons man. I wanted zeus attack.

[fair imp]

my first sub-25 run :3

[heavy solar]

Sweet

[willow bronze]

fooni

[heavy solar]

Goodness I can’t remember the last time I saw the animation for a full call

First meme beams build I’ve seen that didn’t turn out mid and you literally hit everything

[pseudo basalt]

Also hit arctic blast as well
Chaos cast damage and 1 extra cast as well
Very awesome

[heavy solar]

Chaos cast damage isn’t as huge on achilles as everything else you hit but yeah fr

additive damage buffs go

___——

/
/

Sorry that’s a really awkward demonstration

[pseudo basalt]

Yeah, just icing on the cake
Billowing strength for a bit more
Of course diminishing returns with percentage bonuses but it's there! It's more damage!

[void wolf]

https://imgur.com/E8uthUQ

from very long ago but I had to save it for posterity

[willow bronze]

i mean

that only matters for upgrading a single boon

if you get 150 achilles additive and 50 chaos additive, that's still 200

also that's epic grasp so 70+ cast additive is kinda big

[heavy solar]

yeah but it’s not as big of a jump as hitting other supporting boons like mirage shot /glacial glare

[willow bronze]

🤔

[heavy solar]

think about it

[willow bronze]

220/150 > 1.3

[heavy solar]

You start out with a base of 100%

[willow bronze]

i'll give you glacial because dem cast is dog without it but epic grasp is very nice anyways

[heavy solar]

It’s really 330/250

[willow bronze]

still more than 1.3

[heavy solar]

Real

[willow bronze]

🙏

[heavy solar]

I wonder what the total additive is here

Cuz there’s also bad news and glacial glare

380 + 40 from pstatus

[willow bronze]

yeah

[heavy solar]

I guess beams are decent when you have 8 trillion of them doing 5* the damage with long enough duration to go positive with your casting/ cast expiry

For single target damage

[willow bronze]

yeah

[willow bronze]

big call tbh

[hazy marlin]

Arctic blast is a bonus too

Ravenous will

[heavy solar]

Arctic blast isn’t additive damage?

I can hardly add it on

[hazy marlin]

If you have a bunch of beams u get it often

[heavy solar]

yeah but… it’s literally not additive damage

That figure underneath

was the sum of the additive damage numbers I could find + the base 100%

So see how much additive truly was goin on there

glacial glare unfortunately also has a cooldown

[heavy solar]

You can only reinflict chill after like a 0.2 maybe 0.3 second delay which is pretty noticeable

[sharp agate]

Fun runs

[worn eagle]

lmao ok

going fast is free or something

[pseudo basalt]

First ever attempt at 32 heat
Managed first try

[hazy marlin]

13 mins fresh file 😭how the hades

[worn eagle]

fresh file is measured in rta, this was a 20:24 (ended timer slightly late)

[cyan plank]

good grouping and clearing skills
complete mastery over the champions and hades fight
some luck to get merciful end and impending doom asap

sub 20 isn't hard but every minute less than that needs crazy skills

[supple ruin]

I now conviced than Dad Call is the strongest in game, just loaded this with Artermis cast and 2 shot hadees phase 3.

By the grace of god that was so much damage.

[golden peak]

i am convinced it is among the worst calls in the game if not the worst

[hazy marlin]

It’s the worst

Especially since it eats a keepsake slot and a call slot

Doesn’t have synergy

Or a upgrade path

[golden peak]

yes

[supple ruin]

It doesnt need to tbh

its there to support cast builds and 2 shot anything in its way

[golden peak]

except it doesnt do that

idk where you are getting that info

[agile parcel]

omg i saw this and thought once you beat the game a certain number of times hades would give you boons

i was so hyped

still cool that its a keepsake though

my new opinion is that aphrodites is one of if not the best call in the game

+2500 damage is crazy

[sharp agate]

Rats

[agile parcel]

won twice in a row yesterday

[hazy marlin]

If you 2 shot with the call something else is doing the heavy lifting

It also isn’t active consistently which makes the dps kinda low

[supple ruin]

lol ok

[surreal skiff]

my first sub10 woooooooooooooo

[heavy solar]

Mm

“Every minute less than 20 needs crazy skills” is an interesting take

Oh wait this was in reference to fresh file

😔

[worn eagle]

every minute less than 25 (rta) needs crazy skills tbh. For reference, only 37 ff normal mode src times are that fast.

[surreal skiff]

yooooooooooooooo

[blazing rapids]

what happened?????

[blazing rapids]

man TD2 would be free 3 heat
but I don't think I'm surviving HL1 for 16 heat 💀
Heroes still deleted 2 of my DDs

[willow bronze]

Heroes is really hard on hera

Do you know about wallbugging

[blazing rapids]

what is it

[willow bronze]

If you shoot an enemy that’s next to terrain, your casts will do damage but not lodge

So you can pick them up and use them again

https://youtu.be/UCXz7A3IMOQ

[blazing rapids]

so I aim my bow a bit off into walls

[willow bronze]

Looks like this

Kinda. Your shot should be parallel to terrain

[blazing rapids]

WTF

[willow bronze]

You won’t have that damage necessarily since he’s speedrunning but you can have pretty good damage and not have to wait for your casts to drop

Theseus should be an easy pick when he’s stationary since he stops near the wall

Asterius might be a little harder but he also can be around pillars

So I would focus on dodging his attacks until he’s next to a pillar and then kill him

[void wolf]

Full powered Artemis call, 100% Hyper Delivery…and idk what else because this was years ago I think lol

[cyan plank]

why didn't he become invincible at 50%?

oh nevermind that's phase 3

[supple ruin]

Honestly pretty damn good id say.

Athenas call surely seals the deal with the build, just allow the lasers to do 8k damage by doing nothing but sitting still

[smoky wadi]

Just beat 32 heat!! my final milestone for 100% completion

Im thinking I should buy hades 2 but aaaa maybe i should wait for offers?

[willow bronze]

you should do 32+

[smoky wadi]

Tried hades' final form just for funsies and i think i got a better run than the one i got for 32 😭

[digital knot]

Whew got back into H1 with a Hestia 32F win! I forgot how tricky this game can be 😬

[smoky wadi]

ooh that looks fun. crit rockets and powerful shots

never tried hestia myself, 150 sounds crazy

[digital knot]

It’s kinda funny cuz I was expecting to just Reload and shoot over and over but after getting the 5x Rockets, they ended up doing more damage 😂

[hazy marlin]

Unseen one

Those who know

[smoky wadi]

I do not 😔

[hazy marlin]

325k darkness

10 ambrosia

10 titan blood

10 diamonds

Like 50 keys

Maybe 50 nectar?

[void wolf]

This was during R2 on a different run, but after 50%, but I had to clip it just for the damage

[smoky wadi]

Wow

[fair imp]

sub-23 for the first time 🙏 and another win in the bag

[steady comet]

NO WAY

i don't care if my pb is bad i love it

insane merciful end on achilles

with 4 dashes

i wanted to get triple dash strikes but unfortunately no:(

but still i melted hades

[heavy solar]

I'm so washed

[sharp agate]

any washed gamers?

[cyan plank]

me!!

staying at my cousin's house for the holidays
don't have access to my savefile, already played a good amount of h2's current patch

I'll be drenched by the time i get home!! 😃

I've fallen victim to the classic "Hades lets you through when your build rocks"

[willow bronze]

i'm kinda washed ngl

[steady comet]

sorry i mean serrated point, didn't remember the name of the hammer at that moment

[willow bronze]

🫡

[golden peak]

about time fr

[willow bronze]

just took a few days of beo runs

[hazy marlin]

[agile parcel]

This screen doesn’t show the 3 duo boons I somehow got

Nvm I only got one

I swear I got 3

[fair imp]

just beat my old record by 4 minutes, feelin good

(also my first sub-20 run 😌)

[proper hill]

Skellys first statue acquired

Might just spam rama for a while tbh

I'm having a way higher success rate than with anything else

[fair imp]

that’s what i do 😌

(even though I don’t use it much)

[heavy solar]

that photo practically shows your full inventory and it's only 1

maybe 2 other ones came up and you didn't take them

[simple lily]

as soon as i saw dark thirst i was wondering how they fit a duo on a core slot

[blazing rapids]

16 heat with zag bow
no DDs lost on dad wooo

[polar cosmos]

less go, ez speezy

also let me share this (the best and most recent run was with the fists but this was fun too)

[heavy solar]

my fists plays are so rough

[magic iris]

32 heat, it was painful, but now I have all the statues :))

[hazy marlin]

Use twin shot and point blank shot for free win

[proper hill]

I'm a triple/point blank enjoyer

It's nice cause there's a lot of workable combos though

Any two of triple, double, point blank, and explode do it

Or if I get Zeus I just run Zeus special which is also a banger

[hazy marlin]

I had relentless volley+splitting bolt

It was so fun

[proper hill]

Yeah!

[hazy marlin]

Explode kinda sucks

For the charge time

[proper hill]

It's better if you get Hermes fast attack

[hazy marlin]

Personally I use twin shot for better one shot

[ivory sky]

rama win

[hazy marlin]

Lightning rod and crystal beam lol

[heavy solar]

Hermes attack speed only applies to the standing strikes on rama and at best brings it up to the speed of a dash strike

[blazing rapids]

💀

[heavy solar]

Read that as “16 hours on Nemesis” and was severely concerned about how you spent your day

[blazing rapids]

I may actually spend 16 hours on nemesis if I lose my sanity some day

repost 16 heat with nemesis
wanted to run ME but game filled my god pool
sold artemis attack mid run because I rolled a pool of purging

[heavy solar]

You wanted to run ME but didn’t start with Ares?

[blazing rapids]

I started with athena 💀

[heavy solar]

That may have been your first problem

[blazing rapids]

:(

I thought me special deflect wee I get protection and went for athena

lesson learned

also special is slow so I can't reliably deflect, another lesson learned

[heavy solar]

?

Special is reasonably fast

[golden peak]

ive had 16 hour hades days befre

for weeks

[blazing rapids]

it's me sending special when enemies are in point blank and I get hit and stunned

[main glade]

Finally did a boonless run. Now to try it again with higher heat.

[worn eagle]

challenge-run -> high heat pipeline is real

[main glade]

I've beat 16 heat before, but still working on 32 heat.

[fierce whale]

just had my first escape after 17 attempts

[proper hill]

wow, thats pretty quick

mine was with stubborn roots too lol

[fierce whale]

yeah that really saved me in last phase

[fair imp]

first win after bringing Persephone back 🙏🙏🙏

[hazy marlin]

17 attempts with no special or attack boon how on earth

[fair imp]

God

[glass acorn]

They have an attack boon, just no special or cast

[hazy marlin]

Oh u right

[fierce whale]

is it really that rare to get first escape after 17 attempts?
then how rare is it for the second escape right after first XD

[willow bronze]

It’s on the faster end of normal but not super rare

Escapes snowball after the first one so streaking is very common

[weary nimbus]

yeah to when u escape the first time you pretty much get the hang of it (from my experience at least)

[heavy solar]

This is quite common regardless of how soon your first escape came

Typically things just click when you get your first win in a roguelite

And then, if not your first, somewhere in your first handful

[ivory sky]

32 em4 beo

got the entire build

[lunar peak]

My 2 most recent runs.

[tepid canopy]

28mins is cute try 21 mins or lower

[viral fractal]

Balanced!

[golden peak]

to be fair

[supple ruin]

Guan Yu cleared.

[worn eagle]

hehe 20/24 aspects 50

[hexed echo]

got lucky

[lunar peak]

Challenge accepted.

[viral fractal]

is broken resolve good? like what does it even do

[cyan plank]

yes

weak is already a 30% damage reduction, broken resolve makes it 40%
it saves a good bunch of hp throughout the whole run

[viral fractal]

IT ADDS ON?

doesit work w/ the boon that makes weakened foes more susceptible to damage?

[cyan plank]

i think so? let me check the wiki

the wiki doesn't explicitly mention how broken resolve affects weak so now I'm not sure

[willow bronze]

it's fine

weak is already a very significant dmg reduction

[worn eagle]

from #1310628615507021967 message :

Regular damage:

• All defensive reductions are multiplicative, so if you have a 10%, 15%, 20%, 45% from weak and broken resolve, then you will take approximately only 34% of the damage you expect to.
• This is independent of Hard Labor and beowulf +10% / chaos curses. Additive values are computed together then act as a single multiplier at the end.

Trap Damage:

• Traps are mostly their own unique source, the only things that affect trap damage are heightened security, chaos trap damage, and sure footing. Other means of increasing / reducing this damage do not apply.
• Heightened security and chaos trap damage are additive, so HS is as if you have a permanent +400% trap damage curse.
• Outgoing trap damage with Stygian Shards, however, are multiplicative (but is not affected by HS / chaos). So Dad's pots can deal upwards of tens of thousands of damage with just a few items.

(in this case, only the "regular damage" section is relevant)

[proper hill]

YES

[heavy solar]

Broken resolve is additive to the damage reduction of weak, but doesn’t do anything for sweet surrender

It’s the only case of additive damage reduction

[proper hill]

My heat distribution between weapons is so funny

[cyan plank]

how did you unlock the whole mirror with just a single run beforehand

cause i see ri2 there

[lunar peak]

This just inspired me to try harder.

[lunar peak]

You should post that on reddit.

[willow bronze]

It wasn’t a single run

[heavy solar]

It wasn’t a single run

You may notice how I have enough titan’s blood to get my rail to level 4

Or the fact that I was using the rail at all

[golden peak]

you dont have to clear there couldve been a hundred deaths before first clear

[heavy solar]

Which requires more than a failed sword run and a successful bow runs worth of keys to get to

[golden peak]

why

[heavy solar]

I think this was run 20-30

[lunar peak]

Good run.

[willow bronze]
