is there an ingame way to screenshot?

use f11!

and where does it send them to?

always nice to see a black out build

missed the aphro/dio duo tho

had to choose between it and dio cast shadegrief

splash dash is obviously the real MVP here

you spelled "ice win" wrong

what is that skull thing in his boons? underneath the aspect of arthur.

God Mode.

silver hinge
#

that's god mode.
I believe the symbol in the boon screen means that it was active at one point, and the one next to the victory title means it was active for that run.
pretend you never saw me here.

mighty crest
#

oh never knew that, thanks

This was a rollercoaster of a Hera bow run. Took a Chaos curse at the end of Tartarus (-health when using attack, but +1 cast afterwards), had to rely on special through most of Asphodel, at the end of it was just ignoring the curse and walking with 1 hp (Erebus gate with +50 max hp saved me).
In Elysium there were a lot of greatshields, which are the biggest enemy of crystal beam. Near the end of it finally got Crystal Clarity.
Styx is where the run finally shaped up. Got both Mirage Shot and Glacial Glare.

Crystal Beam on Hera bow - never again.

rugged horizon
#

@terse reef Pin me on that friggin list, I cannot believe I finally done it. Thanks to @dreamy heart for the spear coaching, I consequently ignored all your advice and just went on to replicate the massive attack triple dashstrike build except this time I got hardcarried by life affirmation into almost 500 HP. On a sidenote I believe this took more attempts than escaping for the first time.

dreamy heart
#

Congrats man!

silver hinge
#

On a sidenote I believe this took more attempts than escaping for the first time.
I've failed more than 20 times!

rugged horizon
#

same

terse reef
#

Congrats! I failed many times with Serrated Point only to win with... Triple Jab, which I did not expect at all...

#

Also, it seems that the Acorn is the **only **choice for the Final Boss for this challenge.

kindred sluice
#

that sounds like a challenge

#

:3

silver hinge
#

cosmic egg let's go

kindred sluice
#

y'know what

#

sure

#

I probably won't be able to play until Saturday though xD

rugged horizon
#

I treid a lot of plum runs, did not have much luck. Also Secure footing was really clutch I lost like three runs to the 150dmg urns that hades summons. this time they weren't so bad because that thing was epic and they dealt 15 dmg. thanks athena.

silver hinge
#

I'll get it (probably) by 1900 PST tomorrow

rugged horizon
#

good luck

#

may the gods not dump some thriftstore garbage on you and may you instead find epic stuff that actually kicks ass. Excuse me now while I enjoy a run with Routine inspection turned all the way off because that stuff is just not fun.

silver hinge
#

epic stuff...
you're suggesting that I should make this a Crystal Meme run

#

@terse reef how would you feel if someone did this challenge without attacks or specials?

dreamy heart
#

Lysol....

#

No...

kindred sluice
#

don't tempt me to do a dash run of this challenge

terse reef
#

as long as it's Hades Spear and one heat condition of each it's fine πŸ˜‰

kindred sluice
#

I've already beaten the entire game with just dashes on low heat

#

why not on 23

silver hinge
#

Haha lol
good
furthest I've gotten had them unbound

#

when I say I don't know how to Hades Spear I'm not kidding

rugged horizon
#

just for fun I did the get rich quick or die trying challenge. Joined the server too late, but it suits my playstyle way better. Or maybe it is just easier in general. Anyway it was a oneshot.

Don't mind me, just casually dealing 850 damage with each throw.

Beowulf is the true truck.

Beowulf is the true truck.
Take that back yikes πŸ‘„ yikes πŸ—‘οΈ

But does it smack harder?

Meh probably could

Yeah, i wish i could cap godmode to like 30-40% reduction, sucks when i die and it shows a 70%, makes me feel like i havent earned the win

this aspect is amazing

All my friends can't win with it, I find it's my best aspect, you literally can't miss.

wind willow
#

Ha! I got my first win yesterday. Fists with Shattered Shackle. No attack boons, and mostly defensive / revenge boons. It felt weird not going for the big numbers.

static cairn
#

color me impressed

sacred steppe
#

For me getting hit only once (other damage from the asphodel level) vs him is better then beating Hades

silver hinge
#

he's definitely a scarier boss
unless you have HS on

sacred steppe
#

@silver hinge HS?

#

Agies?

silver hinge
#

Heightened security, makes traps deal 5x damage

sacred steppe
#

Yea Hades killed me last run

silver hinge
#

including the final boss's urns

sacred steppe
#

150 damage from a vase

#

he had 20%

#

last form

#

I had max hp 120

#

8D with arthur

#

XD

static cairn
#

should've hit faster

silver hinge
#

jeez
were you running cursed slash or something?

sacred steppe
#

I dont remember

#

I think I just didnt get 1 heart

#

all my hp was from darkness

static cairn
#

and you were running High Confidence?

ebon swallow
#

a few sec off my speed record

sacred steppe
#

I uselly dont run High confidence but I think I did idk

#

How big is Greater Con? @ebon swallow

#

I saw it and was like "meh"

ebon swallow
#

it's really big

#

I love it lol

static cairn
#

covers both pillars in the final boss room

ebon swallow
#

Yup

static cairn
#

and a little past them, too

ebon swallow
#

And a great tool overall

static cairn
#

speed reduction is massive

ebon swallow
#

especially with the attacks being so slow and easy to input attack when you want to dash xD

sacred steppe
#

I just put the blessing in his face and never got hit by the ghosts

#

like, I am allready standing in it

ebon swallow
#

You'd have to try it to see

static cairn
#

don't forget that it gives damage reduction while standing in it

sacred steppe
#

Or maybe I died using ||Lucifer||....

static cairn
#

I lost my first 2 lucifer runs while having infinite ammo and piercing

#

and won one with infinite ammo and faster startup

frigid scarab
#

I don't really have much luck with Lucifer myself. Maybe it's because I insist on using Zeus boons on special to turn the bombs into proximity mines instead of going for actual high-damage traps.

hot hedge
#

@static cairn Infinite ammo on Lucifer is really bad - your damage normally ramps up the longer you attack, but infinite ammo turns off ramping

rugged horizon
#

feel like the only way to justify that is to have Zeus attack

#

also I just committed to pickung up some of the boons I got left on the fated list and they worked together really well. Super impressed by hunting blades.

Gotta say i'm in love with this!

Lol killed hades and died at the same time and this happened

kindred sluice
#

@lucid crest nicely done! If you haven't already, f10 . I'm impressed though, I've actually tried to do that a couple times lol :D

lucid crest
#

Definitely a first time this happened for me Lol, game definitely tripped out a bit

kindred sluice
#

Interesting to note, the heat icon in the top left is a totally different UI component than the boon menu, so it's not visible right now

lucid crest
#

that is interesting

fair gate
#

oh neat

#

i've actually done that before, but i had DD left so i just won normally

#

always wondered what would have happened otherwise

dire oar
#

How do you get a 4th death defiance?

There's a rare Chaos boon that gives you an extra. It's aptly called Defiance.

my strategy was "gun go bang BIG"

And no poms were found after that duo boon there was received.

Hey, nice job!

And no poms were found after that duo boon there was received.

Got denied that sweet sweet Cold Fusion three times, but I guess I didn't need it. My special was destroying everything. +150% from Punishing Sweep (when I bothered with it lmao), +105% from Frost Flourish, +2% from Bouldy, +40% from Privileged Status

#

@terse reef Weekly challenge done!

#

I didn't even mean to take Mort, lol. But he helped out a ton in Styx

terse reef

Nice, congrats!

kindred sluice

Now to do it again, but without Acorn, as promised :3

Take the egg for extra swag

#

long knuckle clutch, without it tempest strike is terrible on fists and sea storm + tempest strike on fists is great dps

#

sea storm has an internal cooldown doesnt it?

#

i dont think it hit a lot with aspect of demeter special + flying kick

lucid crest
#

@meager pivot i didn't think sea storm had a cooldown, had it before on a knockback adamant rail and it proc'd like crazy

meager pivot
#

i guess it's really small

#

the demeter hits are all at the same time

#

i think

not sure, don't use it often

GG !

#

First clear with the the fists which I still don't like, so 90% of the boss fight damage was done through casts and giving them the ol' poseidon love tap

@meager pivot it dont hit alot because demeter only count as one hit for it

got pretty lucky though, indeed

high voltage is also super fun, especially at high levels. i'm just imagining what it'd be like asheroic lv 5 or something

silver hinge

ambiguity 2%
not amazing, but it is a decent buff

#

for fun run to try and get black out, I got it, turned into a facetank run, where I literaly didn't have to dodge anything.

Damn that's a dope build

Aspect of Poseidon has to be one of the best in the game

also got like 6 things for premium vintage

@gritty vapor also damn dude, that damage

gritty vapor

Pure Luck I got 2 Chaos boons for cast ammo AND one for cast damage, All the Ares Boons for blades at Epic, Heroic Slicing shot, AND Hunting blades

#

It would have been 100% with demeter in the mix

cluster + extra special damage = huge damage

oh man thats sick

damn dude i only get a legendary or duo every other run

#

how do yall do it

tough mirage
#

fated persuasion + god's legacy has been a game changer for me on that front

#

but there's some bias going on here too of course, where runs with better boons are more likely to get posted because they're more special

fair gate
#

how do yall do it
on high enough heat, you only win if you get them lol

#

or at least that’s true for me

rigid quarry

pretty happy with this one.. first time against the extreme measures theseus too πŸ˜„

I must admit I was going cast build when I got it. Never expected to be able to proc extra damage with it as well

unkempt sequoia

second time lol

#

it seems my first clear was on 12 now 13 and shaved off like almost 10 mins

#

auto hold spear + athena deflect was pretty cheezy tho

thick pier
#

I didn't know that the sword is so strong, I actually dealt so much damage that I killed the last boss in 2 minutes, usually it takes me 4mins

silver hinge
#

dash-strikes can get a little OP

thick pier
#

I had that one sword that increases crith chance after using special and that allowed me to see some huge numbers which was super epic

fossil fractal
#

I defeated hades for the first time while trying out the sword.

meager pivot
dreamy heart
#

LMAO GG DAD

robust bobcat
#

each shotgun blast dealt 1710 damage lol
@meager pivot I wanna try this build

silver hinge
#

Build is right there. Try to get it!

#

cluster bomb+rocket bomb, basically

#

with ubercrit attack

#

looks fun

tough mirage
#

cluster rocket bomb is my favorite hammer combo in all of hades

robust bobcat
#

Cluster bomb is a hit or miss to me

#

The reduced dmg makes it too weak

#

I guess the rocket makes it good again?

tough mirage
#

with the rocket, you can just get right up against an enemy and hit them with all 5 bombs instantly

#

dealing 3.5x damage of a single special

#

plus rocket boosts the base damage from 60 to 80

silver hinge
#

it makes it stronger and a little easier to use
with standard cluster you have to aim on top of yourself for good single-target damage

robust bobcat
#

Ahhh

#

I have always found rocket or cluster alone are not strong enough

#

I usually opt for the triple special one

#

Which shoots the same spot three times

meager pivot
#

never again taking EM3 on sword

silver hinge
#

did you get double edge?

meager pivot
#

sadly nope

#

2 hammers and no double edge

silver hinge
#

better than doubles your DPS

meager pivot
#

i won EM3 fight with 9 HP left(no defiance)

#

and hades fight pretty much same

#

22 hp

#

lol

#

not good for the heart

#

FO makes it really hard to dodge the bull's charge

thick night
#

Had a pretty cool build
Kinda sucked and then I got the duo boons

#

Funny thing is I never got offered Drunken Strike for any Poms for the entire run

#

Which is the only thing that really wouldve made the build way better (besides a call)

quick marsh
#

The "Fun for the Whole Family" run. Takes some setting up and a lot of luck/resets in Tartarus.

meager pivot
#

damn, nice

#

have no clue how to work with this aspect honestly

#

as you can see from the time taken

valid jewel
#

i REALLY leaned into Athena and Aretemis

#

mm, that divine strike + hunter dash into deadly reversal

very nice

stubborn roots kinda SCHNICE

i've always wanted to lean into hoarding slash, but i can never resist spending all my money

I always get it near styx, so I usually dont have the wiggle room to get some funds. >_>

fair gate
#

yeah when you get it with an anvil in styx and its like "welp guess this'll give me checks notes 3 extra damage vs. hades"

#

beowulf special build i guess

#

kinda sad i didn't die more; i had stubborn roots and didn't get to use it

plucky dragon
#

Let me guess, you took tooth before getting roots?)

dense spindle
#

Judging by the order of boons this was one of the earliest actually

fair gate
#

yeah... i actually forgot i had it until after i won lol

lament hemlock
fair gate
#

nice

#

got your money's worth there

plucky dragon
#

Is that a vampiric slash (or how is it called)?

#

Cuz that thing is a trap imo.

dense spindle
#

Cursed Slash, and, well, its' name is fully justified lel
Still, it's quite potent

sullen marsh
#

Just got my first clear using the cursed slash last night and it was a powerhouse for me

west torrent
#

kinda depends where ur heat is at tho any low heat i find cursed slash to be really good

rugged horizon
#

I also used to love cursed slash but especially with HL ramping up, ||Hades|| can actually just one clap you if you get hit by the old sweep while having blood boil on you. I moved away from it, nontheless that's a victory and we take those, good job.

Also I came here to boast and that's what I am about to do (full context I am not boasting about murdering a defenseless final boss while on 0 heat with a lvl 9 Aphro aid, instead I am boasting about having cleared the fated list. Needed one duo boon, and here it is, Ice wine for the completion.

silver hinge
#

Ice Win

#

is the best build

rugged horizon
#

should prolly post that

plucky dragon
#

You actually used the call not just as a nuke?

silver hinge
#

It's 56 whole seconds of charm. That's worth a lot more than 2500 damage

#

per full gauge

plucky dragon
#

Perhaps, but to my caveman brain pushing a button and seing Theseus fold himself in half way more statisfying. zaglol

rugged horizon
#

it is 12 seconds of not having to deal with dad, I was going for the no hit perfect fight, unfortunately I got hit by the friggin butterflies 4 times, once by a skullwave and then by a laser right before he went down.

meager pivot
#

i hope there aren't no-hit achievements

rugged horizon
#

I was pretty mad. but luckiely I got to use the fated list to dry my tears

meager pivot
#

hermes prophecy is impossible for me

rugged horizon
#

waiting for bad news?

meager pivot
#

both legendaries

rugged horizon
#

ahh, well there is a duo boon between Dionysus and Poseidon that makes you get only epic or rarer boons and once you got that you use the old fated pursuation to roll into whatever you still need.

#

exclusive access I think its called

meager pivot
#

does that really affect legendary/duo chance? I dont think so

rugged horizon
#

I actually dont know but that is how I got Frozen Vortex the run before

#

maybe its voodoo

quick marsh
#

7.77 seconds left? I feel lucky just to have finished this run. Feels bad not to have gotten either of the duos I wanted and Divine Dash only in Elysium.

this was the fastest of my (few) final boss wins so far, I can't believe how many boons I was able to get

#

basically the ideal zeus run except low rarity on flourish and no call

silver hinge
#

sub 30 πŸ₯³

cold moat
#

could have been a lot faster but I was having a lot of fun exploding entire rooms so I did an extra lap of styx

silver hinge
#

now go get sub 20 my guy, I believe in you

cold moat
#

would be super easy if I just got exactly the same build as this run except instead it's chaos shield

silver hinge
#

accurate
chaos shield with zeus flourish is scary

night cape
#

zeus chaos shield is hella nice i agree

silver hinge
#

ah, that's only the zag shield

night cape
#

is chaos not zag shield

silver hinge
#

chaos aspect is even scarier

night cape

is chaos the big eye that splits

yes

the shield of chaos having an aspect of chaos kinda bugs me ngl

@merry fox
If you're talking about aspect of beowulf, you actually had the right boons (aphro on special, poseidon dash, aphro/poseidon sweet nectar duo boon). However, naegling's board is at its best with charged flight hammer upgrade (which scales damage to big numbers) plus dread flight (which applies it quickly to 3-6 enemies). You can easily do 900-1200 damage against 3-6 enemies per throw of the special.

Try for that combo when you've unlocked more things.

merry fox
#

Oh wow OK

#

Thanks for the advice, hope I can get those boons again to match with upgrades

#

.>

charred prairie
#

@merry fox
I saw that. lol. 🀣

Yeah, naegling's cast-loading is actually fool's gold. naegling's special combined with charged flight hammer upgrade + dread flight is incredible. charged flight is a must. dread flight is nice to have to further bolster it.

As you play the game more, you'll realize that the hammer upgrades can either massively improve your build or kinda weaken it. Most hammers range from positive to super positive. A few should be avoided depending on weapon aspect and/or boon combo.

You didn't know it but getting aphro special + posiedon dash (preferably with razor shoals)+ their sweet nectar duo boon is probably the optimal combo for naegling's board. But because you haven't seen what those 2 hammers do for naegling, you didn't realize how ideal that boon combo is for beowulf aspect (especially for extreme heat runs which are 40+ heat).

merry fox
#

Damn I was on like heat 3

I should use that mirror upgrade to increase my chances of gold laurels then?

cast builds for beowulf are actually quite good, but the playstyle is definitely harder than charged flight

It's fully routed, but this run fell off the route at the end of Elysium

If executed perfectly, we think it can get down to 3:45

merry fox

Also how did you get so many high rarity boons?

hot hedge
#

Routing - you run the same seed over and over, manipulating RNG to get the boons you want

merry fox
#

OH that's what that means

silver hinge
#

they flipped off RNGsus and mugged him for the perfect build

sharp igloo
#

You can chance what seed you play on?

#

change*

#

or like restart the seed

hot hedge
#

Giving Up restarts the run you're currently on, without generating a new seed. The old way to find a seed was to just die over and over until you get the start you want, then you never complete a run or respawn in house, you just Give Up if the run ends or you die. There's now a mod though, that lets you select the seed you want, which can then be saved and run on an unmodded game
