The streak continues
First time trying damage control
This is the most boons Iโve ever gotten in a run
I was pretty loaded
Heroic Athena special, blue Athena dash, purple Zeus attack
Support fire, long knuckles, fully loaded, soldering air
Just interrupting attacks after attacks
Got my first 32 heat win with EM4 yesterday!
@dreamy heart I got hooked on Hades by @rugged horizon and secured my 1st win on my 8th escape try
so proud!
Grats on the first win @steep epoch ๐
Also @clever marsh Perfect Clear 
That's all the base weapons done.
Hey all! I just beat the game for the very first time!!! And on a weapon I was only using to get the diamond ๐ idk if this helps or was good but I did it!!
Woohoo!!
FINALLY
Not the absolute smoothest, but was pretty darn satisfied with my attempt at a dodge everything run, and some nice critting setup for the fists
sadly didn't get sea storm, but still a fun and goofy dash run
First 32 heat clear
@obsidian tide Quite unusual choice of heat. GJ tho
This was supposed to be a safe run with Chiron bow for the Dark Reflections prophecy, but ended up with the highest Butterfly I've ever gotten.
23 win streak? friendship ended, you make me feel bad ๐
@lunar peak lol
13 min
the blade rift carried hardcore here ngl
Merciful End is big pog
Think I've fell in love with casts now
YAFAP -- was my first time clearing elysium and carried on through... "now we can finally play the game!"
GOD DAMN nemesis SLAPS
So much DAMAGE
I hate dash nova so much
Never using it again
I hate dash nova so much
One of us, one of us
One of us, one of us
@clever marsh 8 win streak are u proud of me
I'll start higher heats once I get out with 1 heats for all of them.
More blood yeah?
i finally beat EM4 and all it took was almost 50%(48.8%) dodge chance 3 hermes boons and dash nova like a mad man
Nice, just finished a run with plume at 34.8% myself.
nice! i only got mine to 28.8 and the only 20 was from a boon
Got my first clear last night. I messed up changing what was showing so it looks like I did a Captain America shield-throw build, but actually it was just Zeus boon stacking until everything was lightning bolts.
congrats!
this was a great run, I enjoyed it
so many projectiles from one eris shot
and three casts of bouncing phalanx, that too
Nice! Will you try your hand at high heat?
@clever marsh what does a standard high heat conditions look like
Probably not gonna beat it but I wanna try
there isn't any set combination. high heat is usually considered at least 32
usually 40+
Currently Iโm just grinding some blood for Chiron bow
I did 3 32 heat runs today
Sheeesh
you can search my posts here to see some pact combination
Aight
Iโm probably gonna take it slow tho haha
Donโt wanna go that far up and end up losing interest in the game
fair enough, do what makes sense to you. have fun!
whew that was some hard EM4, 2nd one I did and this time with my "main" weapon, also testing around trying to get Ares with doom and having to change in the last second with Dionysius... while also doing the epilogue trigger stuff, so much stuff in a run!
and yeah I took my sweet time, I am no rusher unless I focus on it xD
Welp. XD
I had this nuts build on the Rail (Aspect of Eris) for my 10th win...and...
That was anticlimactic. XD
...Couldn't even use it on ||Hades||. XD
...congrats! xD
I would show my build but...kinda can't.
But I had the triple lobshot.
And Support Fire from Artemis.
And special damage boosts.
Do the math. XD
third completion now with funny dash spam set, kiss of styx premium saved the run
Fresh restart, Fresh game, And holy fraking dodging
@lime bane I tried your build lol
my first ten win streak
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
just completed my first clear aswell, the shield is OP
new fastest clear 
Reached the credits on my 35th run!
Finally finished the Rail bounties. Forgot how spicy EM3 gets with any amount of FO active.
I had 3 stacks of the +60% cast damage going into last fight and needless to say each Cast did enough to make an invul happen lmao
@signal nymph whoa how do you get those to heroic just like that so well built? XD
@devout heron was that a "Rail" attempt or crushing stuff with that dash haha nice win there!
@errant kettle that's one destroyer shield
50/50 I'd say. The dash did a ton of the heavy lifting, in Styx in particular.
a heck of a fun run, doing all the chambers and a thana run in
@errant kettle invul?
The blue shield when a boss reached certain hp
How do you like my run?
and hice
nice
@devout heron If I may ask.... how is my build and uhh I suck sorry
If it beats the game it's fine, really. With a slow secondary like the rail you often rather want something with % damage than Zeus, but you managed to do it, so... whatever works!
I had zeus legendry and bigger radius for lightning bolts
It was fun, probably could of done sub 20 if I didnt do all the zones in styx
yay
mb for the poor screenshot, finally beat the game on my 16th run >:D
The first of many ^_^
Gg
Trippy flare on Hera bow is so amusing to play 
tripy flare lol
oh damn that's a lot of wine
@round plover see, it's viable. On 15 heat with em4 too.
So it should be fine for low heat with a level 1 chaos shield
Fastest run yet
What are the gold circles on the books to the left ?
First consecutive win!
Un-upgraded Guan-Yu is fun and reasonable
Mad respect, my dude.
Lost 1 live on hydra and 1 on tesseus, then got lucky with kiss of styx and +3 dashes
Amazing how much stuff is dodge-able with 5 dashes D:
such a good duo to get early on
I was thinking to rest for the day after my first win on hades
woops
I call it "This is my boomstick.. literally" build
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/408273025583022082/760082654879547402/unknown.png?width=873&height=475 since it is my first run I finished with god mode open
The ultimate Beybladeโข๏ธ run. Zeus shield + all blade rift boons (except for Black Metal)
sheild special attacks and doom implict goes well
Extreme Measures 4 spoilers
Speed
Last successful run on that streak. Also, looking in this channel, I see no one else with that clipping issue, I reported it in game, just wondering if maybe that's just me affected by it..
@vagrant locust the clipping issue only appears if you have more than 4 rows of passive boons, this cause the boon descriptions to become misaligned and pushed to the side a bit
that makes so much sense. I should stop hoarding those, that happens in over 80% of my runs. I'm addicted to those things :p
Nah man, happens to me as well lol, especially if you're running the talent that gives you more gold laurel rooms
Sorry about poor quality my camera sucks
The stubborn roots clutch
First time using Eris and first time I cleared without losing any Death Defiance!
Rama is not bad
rama is indeed not bad
finally maxed out aspect of chaos, also sweet nectar is pretty good
@signal nymph whoa how do you get those to heroic just like that so well built? XD
@glossy locust The run started really bad with a common and rare. In order to try to save it I put the demeter keepsake in Elysium in hopes I get the "X boons become common then upgrade every 3 battles" demeter boon. So I got it just in time for the boons to upgrade to rare right before the boss, and the run was saved.
that boon is so good
1 hit away from defeating hades but died
With his sigil
Literaly it was 1 or 2 hits away so oof
1 hit away from defeating hades but died
@reef minnow I was like that too in a run where I forgot to take tooth in styx. feels bad ๐ฆ
I had 3 life basicly and used them all man I suck
dying is extremely common
Turns out rama special plus ares is pretty nice
Not a bad run
Level 25
Salute
Now for attempt #2
lmao y tho
why not?
this time with drunken flourish
Sheesh I almost lost this one
Still need more practice with spear
Got hit wayyyy too many times trying to spin or special
But I finally got ||hades keepsake and guan yu aspect||
nice!
now clear with your new spear at level one
did a mirrorless run
was hoping to get arctic blast at some point seeing as my main means of attacking were both inflicting chill
I beat Hades with extreme measures and 5 minute timer!! Look at my HP and time haha, so damn close.
@restive cove Don't be
But pressure xD
eris aspect 30 heat, 3 more to go, i feel like i won't do it with the sword i don't know how to play it ๐
45 with shield nice
thanks ๐ was before 1.0 but it's pretty much the same
am i the only one that is trying to go through all the heats one at a time with each weapon? XD
that's from a couple days ago
My first bow victory ^^ Triple + Flurry shot is fun
first bow win, got lucky with rare boons
So I have found out what my heat block is-- turns of heightened security
Just beat Theseus and the Minotaur for the first time :D
Same! And then I died horribly that same run after getting the next boss to half-health...
Finally got a clear
Got calculated risk and greater recall from charons shop in styx, really came in handy
Only gets easier from now
unless you decide to make it harder instead
which is more fun imo
Finally eked out a Guan Yu aspect win. Shame there isn't more stuff that effects your collectible shards, that's a really neat duo boon.
mighty zeus
My first win!
Congrats
Spoiler is sword aspect 4
This was my first merciful end build, and while this weapon isn't really suited to merciful end it still got some stupid damage
Two pictures here because I mroe or less had two builds going. First the Ricochet BounceaRama build I had going with extra lightning.
And the Mass Doom build I had during the same run.
I swear, Rama is toooo damn strong on damage (Double shot and perfect shot hammers)
not sure where to post this but i feel like this is the correct choice for the purge value for this boon
Sorry the poor quality. Tried a hermes call dodge build after learning how this boon worked
It was absolutely hilarious this adds up to like 74% dodge
As long as I keep dropping calls, and with Athena and Zeus I could basically constantly spam it
I feel super big brain but I actually only managed to do it because some absolute heroes that told me how dodge adds up
@viscid salmon Hey, you could also try other mirror upgrade for dodge, instead of second dash you can get 50% dodge for 2 sec
I think I'm too bad at timing my dodges to get that consistently, but yeah maybe
Worth a shot
Maybe I can get up to 100%+ dodge
it's actually impossible to reach 100% dodge with how it stacks
and also that would be incredibly broken lol
Nemesis sword is so strong itโs insane
My fav weapon in the game now
The trap damage +400% cucked me so hard
Lost 2 DD to temple traps thankfully Athena gave me one back
Aphro attack, Athena dash, double edge
All you could ask for tbh
If only I didnโt get the sack at the 4th tunnel, I prob couldโve beaten my best time
Finally beat it on my 38th attempt!
Ah yes, the "you are already dead" build, with a built in crit nuke special for when they don';t actually die.
Ah yes, the "you are already dead" build, with a built in crit nuke special for when they don';t actually die.
@pine nova thatโs some insane stuff
Poseidon shield build, pretty deadly
I'm getting faster
iabngdsbvuhaerwbvjawdvughowdbcvljksnwd voguswbvaklsjhv ajuhAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
i didnt even see his health in phase 2 it was shockingly quick
finally did a run with the spear
@viscid salmon almost 100% dodge with call
So much damage man, so much
My best and fastest run yet
So many good boons itโs insane
Dear lord I love nemesis
5 more conditions to go before my 15 blood
Cast Run!!

Woah! That UI change of the end screen
Is it because of the high Heat @noble bay ?
Wait, no. You only have 5
@round seal ||The themes can be bought from the house contractor||
Thank you
Going through heats without breaking a sweat, and I gotta thank blade rifts for it all
Quite possibly one of my best builds in a while, and I went into this planning on doing a dash build
Anyone have a cast only win, that sounds quirky ๐
I've definitely done that
could've done that with this build, actually
Mirage Shot + Fully Loaded is one of the more powerful cast builds
only way to make it stronger would be either adding another Cast Duo
cast builds are one of the best
My posideon sword gets a lot of work for sure.
Imo Achilles aspect and Slicing Shot is the best way to go, getting Hunting Blades and Vicious cycle means you'll be decimating bosses really easily
like I said, I wasn't planning on a cast build, the cast build just kinda happened xD
but yeah
But is it cast only like, go for a build and limit yourself to just the casts 
yeah, I've done that
Sounds quirky, I like it
I've done that for every core ability (attack, special, cast, dash)
Iโve been, well trying to win at all, but I keep having really good special builds that get me all the way there, I just seem to choke at the end ๐
you'll get there ^.^
Any trick to phase 2? Am I just going to gung-ho and thatโs probably the downfall ๐ค
Mmm yes, I probably need to slow down, what works everywhere else does not work there
Did... is that literally just a dash build
yea
next time play it on gilgamesh ๐
(see mine, just without nearly as good of a dash-focus)
with 1 scuffed blizzard shot for sea storm, but i usually forgot it and just dashed
valid
ideal build is Tidal Dash + Second Wave + Splitting Bolt + the rest of Pos & Zeus
yea i dream of the day i get all poseidon/zeus boons
If youโre going for a 2 god build suppose you can find it scuffed by a 1 room choice being another god ๐ฎ
i think tidal dash build still does more dmg
but its good to know zeus dash works iguess
ares dash next 
I actually have video of that one
I think the zeus has that option for increasing while Poseidon doesnโt does he? Like the boon that enhances all lightning
Is that a duo ๐๐ I shouldnโt be here but itโs so interesting to see all the ways people are winning
yea that, and poseidon also has splash, rupture, and double knockback for double sea storm
yes it is ^.^"
My almost win earlier was the rail with hammer for rocket and 3 rapid fires of special, plus a Hermes to increase special speed ๐ and arty for crit chance + marking an enemy upon a crit hitting... that just kind of destroyed its way until I flopped
First clear woohooooo
Congrats
does this count as victory boasting
yes.
@sage yarrow what did you do to get the greater call in trial one
@molten lantern o i think i probably used athena's greater call when i was facing her during her trial
if that makes sense
Yeah i just cant get the trial to naturally last long enough im basically gonna have to to to elysium farm out the gauge there but its so strange that all the other achievements you get naturally
So I was looking at my permanent record...
good
How is my fastest run so far with Arthur?!
It felt so slow to wield it lol
Arthur + Crit
git those artemis boons up in there
i think i saw like a 1.1k crit in there somewhere
felt magical
Gilgamesh + max Aphrodite aid = a boss getting deleted from the game after their last phase activates
Whats gilgamesh?
4th Fist aspect
Ah i see
Im new to the game
How do you unlock the 4th aspects cus i unlocked guan yu randomely once is it a certain number of kills?
check pins in #h1-story-discussion
Invest 5 blood into a weapon
you want the second pinned message
Then you gotta get a random interaction with someone
finally got my first win after 25 runs!
rama is pretty good, 1600 attacks against final boss. couldn't find a good attack boon so.. level 2 shattered shackle ๐ also, with winter harvest, there's a special kill animation with the final boss and demeter has a voice line. sent chills down my spine
I absolutely hated everything about this run. It was so bad. It was an uphill battle the entire way through. That's sort of why Exagryph is one of my least favorite weapons:
70mins?dng
i think that's the longest run i've seen posted here
i'm impressed that you pushed through to victory regardless
a little cramped at times isn't it lol
yea
The only reason I survived was because, before I used the anvil to swap hammer's, I had the rocket special, otherwise I would almost have certainly lost against the heroes, and it was incredibly tedious nonetheless lol.
The speed Asterious moves makes it particularly difficult to deal damage with my special as it normally is, which was my main source of damage.
hazard bomb probably helped me survive against Hades too tbh.
minor suggestion, if you're open to suggestions, is to avoid ares attack boon for the rail since it doesn't stack and the rail fires quickly. i'd suggest demeter to build up chill stacks and make it easier to land the special
just my two cents ๐
yeah, unfortunately the only useful demeter boon I got was the chill for dashing, which I find to be one of her better ones if I'm being honest, aside from attack chill or special chill in certain circumstances.
your run likely would have gone much smoother if your gods on attack and special had been swapped
rail attack likes zeus and rail special really likes aphro
B a c k s t a b s
Yeah, I was unlucky for most of my run lol. That's a pretty solid backstab build.
the people must know your highest backstab crit numbers from that run
God Mode.
oh, right, thanks
got my 16 and I think that's it for me because 32 seems way out of my league
Highest crit was around 1.8k I think
hot giggity that's a lotta damage
Wait, Piercing Volley works with Chiron now!?
yeah, but I'm sure it makes the arrows go through the enemies until they reach the targeted enemy
build wasn't great, lost 2 death defiances at the end but it worked out somehow lol
Finally got my heat 0 clear with the shield. To be honest after I got charged shot the run was won, but the minotaur rush helped get through it faster, I face tanked pretty much the entire fight lol. Wasn't even really worried about blocking or anything. I keep that skelly tooth in the final fight for a reason, even if I don't need it. I came into the fight with almost full health and all my death defies still intact, that's how much I face tanked lol.
My perfect boon crit build for Coronacht bow Zaegrus aspect
I'm starting to like Rama.
how tf do you get that much hp
finally, finally, managed a full clear on my 107th attempt!
I would have lost again if it wasn't for Bouldy coming in in the last-minute clinch.
Congratz! First of many!
this build was very fun, i basically didnt even basic attack
I did it boyos! I got all skelly statues! ๐
lightning phalanx is pretty fun to use
First 8 heat, no sweat with dodge spam ^^
the "sea storm" build with chiron
Finally after 23 runs my first victory!
26 min is pretty good, even
it is? Thank you ๐
First run with aspect of arthur, honestly super impressed. Might be my new favourite.
First Extreme Measures 4 clear
yeah, but I'm sure it makes the arrows go through the enemies until they reach the targeted enemy
@glad drift chiron does that at base, i believe the only thing chiron piercing volley does is the armor damage
Thanks for letting me bring the girlfriend to work today dad.
Also my god new bow is fun.
i shredded in this run, the stacking backstab damage is so effective!
And that was the very last bounty I had to do. Pretty meh run, but still.
current streak = 70 , thats incredible
current streak = 70 sounds like someone is grinding for metaresources
Mind you, like 15 of those runs were at any notable heat (i.e >15), the rest was, as Lysol rightly mentioned, farming runs.
My lone 32 was within that streak though.
nice!
possibly the easiest run i've had of any heat
15:47...my best but got really unlucky with the satyrs, the sack was in the last tunnel
First win with the bow is a proud accomplishment!
really weird build but hey it sort of worked
I did really well this run, didnt lose any lives at all
You appear to be favoring a certain weapon.
yep, i was struggling with the game trying to find a weapon for me initially
was using shield and was trying to play super cheesy by using the block a lot
just randomly put some titan blood into chiron and loved it
first win!!! not really sure how to manage with other weapons/strategies bc i just blasted everything down with this though lol
so got to the surface for the first time
and got him to his second phase
not a win, but yesterday i was struggling to get past theseus so im happy
same 2 days ago and then finally finished a run last night. felt great. keep going!
heat 16 win
pretty cool build 
My first win
Congrats
First of many!
ok so i know its not as good as all the wins on here, but i've gotten to stage 2 of the big guy on the surface 3 times in a row now
im gonna kick his ass one day
cant wait ๐
yeah i think i've figured out how to build my runs a bit better
zip zap zoom everything goes boom
and i've still got to get a third deaths defiance and forgot to switch trinket now that I think about it
gz
also finally caught a sturgeon pog
that looks like such a fun run ๐ฎ
That's the type of run where I wished I finally turned up the heat a good bit
tartarus was literally only Zeus boons with 1 demeter in there
Turns out the 10th escape didn't give the stat screen, but oh well, here it is, my best time yet.
Wow, that's a huge change in timing.
personal best
ty @old wharf i beat hades so fast in this run
each auto attack was like 600-800
Merciful End build on Zeus shield was pretty fun.
@summer stag so you would special then activate merciful?
Yeah
op
With Blade Dash and Zeus Aid, the screen got really chaotic
anything zeus related should come with an epilepsy warning
if you're consistently making bolts it's so BRIGHT AA
Was a bit hard to distinguish between the Blade Dash effects and the Zeus Shield special lol
So Exit Wounds didn't decide to show up until Elysium:
I just beat hades for the first time! With a lightning build!๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ
Nice.
Just tried focussing on speed for the first time and got 16:27.04
NO clue what a good time is lmao. Probably something insane.
This spear build was a real face melter
Oh god I'm so bad with the spear. Gg
I mean this was just dash strike: the build
Bullying people into corners with Tidal Dash and dash striking and wall bouncing
Serrated point is definitely one of my favourite
I believe I also had a purple chaos boon for dash strike in there
weird accidental talos build, worked out great
Oooo dats nice
Does making friends with Bouldy count as a victory?
Dio+Athena combo on fists is too good
yeah i couldnt get athena attack unfort
I guess I thought you'd rather have Dio on attack anyway because of stacking reasons
My first EM 4 without Death Defiance lost
Huh. Zag aspect sword with Dio works decently then?
with flurry slash yeah.
How do you take screenshots again?
Thanks that's what I've been pressing but no visual feedback, let me see what's in the folder... ps, I got my first clear in a long, long time!
nice!
ooh, nice!
I was so hoping I didn't die on this one! Bow is one of the hardest ones for me, but autofire with aphrodite's attack seemed to be the way to go!
I think I got the sniper hammer too
I forgot even to highlight the best boons!
lol
ka BOOM as the guy says in Warcraft
yea
nicely done Pat! And that's a solid run Gecko!
yea
that really doesnt show the extent of it though
cuz i had the chaos attack up
and i got the uh, +4% dmg per fountan on the first floor
I did it! Got my first clear! Finally got a run where I had enough cheat deaths to power through last boss :x
My slowest clear, but that time is too perfect not to share anyway.
one-click wonder
Doooooom
Finally beat my fastest run
Congrats!!
first 8 done, working on pushing higher!
Finally completed the prophecy of clearing with every condition in the pact
Maxed out my nemesis and hades, Chiron and Demeter sitting at level 4
FeelsGoodMan
Chiron with sea storm and a purple level 6 Poseidon special
Sheesh
Melted everything, fastest time yet
I know itโs not high heat, but Iโm proud of my 17 win streak
Think I'm getting the hang of it. Very last boon was Exclusive Access, which gave me a chuckle.
@inner bane thatโs a perfect looking record
2 clears with each weapon, all 1 heat, 12 wins and 12 win streak
Woo, beat extreme measures 4 for the first time
This took me way too long
Forgot to take a screenshot at the end, so the records room will have to do
This build's okay, I guess. ๐
3-streak on 32 heat ๐
Quality over quantity, baby, let's go! Not a speck of Titan Blood in this build!
My first successful go ||at EM4, on top of being the second consecutive run I beat Charon||!
fastest run yet with my worst weapon..! that special was super busted and just melted through the bosses health bars
Started getting into Hera's aspect for the bow and I gotta say, this was a REAAALL hot build

pretty cool build, did big boi damage with doom
the most op run with arthur i have had so far
lol
i know, i just had to for the full duo ridiculousness
i kept forgetting to spam zeus call smoldering because i could do everything
overall, iโd rate it red ๐
and getting winter harvest stemming only from snow burst is... silly
winter harvest is so rare but itโs so satisfying when it finally procs
yeah, still one of the absolute best animations and presentation on boss procs tbh
first time using ME, super strong
I love it when a build comes together
Zeus aspect is actually nutty with merciful end

I utterly hate this run
and as you can see I almost didn't make it
I love the word "almost" sometimes
First clear!
congrats
@sharp elk just put zeus autos on it and pew pew everything!
really good synergy with flurry fire or the 3 round burst infinite ammo one
also goes good with PP and support fire
First blood
First of many!
the gun is so much easier
close call is right... the healing really came through clutch in the end...
Gotta go fast
Somehow ended up with vengeful mood with just the athena and ares revenge boons. Also didn't even lose my acorn shield against hades 
also rare crop is so good
deletion I guess, used aspect of nemesis
My fastest run yet
nice
also hit my fastest run with tight deadline
made me hit times I never even expected
yeah that deadline made me panick a tiny bit
My first successful run
congrats
thanks
Tail what beats me is the fact you had a 52 heat run
i got all the cheevos
but also got the bugged one for max all trinkets as the first one i got
pog!!!
theres actually a fair amount of stuff i havent complete, like maxing relationships, buying furniture, maxing aspects/companions, doing all the prophecies, but no achievos tied to those
You getting all cheevos makes me wanna buy it again on steam. Epic store has no way to see your achievies
@lunar peak if you press shift and f3 it should come up with achievements
@north ember will do!
first 32 on rail, first 32 since 1.0
good ol' cluster rocket bomb
that was my backup plan lol
i was going to go merciful end, and got SIX chances at it lmao
but cluster rocket pulls through
damn lol
cluster rocket was probably the first really op combo i've experienced in this game
like just absolutely ridiculous
My first 32 ever, using crit build.
nice, never gotten twin shot and flurry shot before
Its actually bonkers @meager pivot
I didn't even know you could get em together, that's a lotta dps
You can stunlock encounters and melt everything
Finally
really love that i felt like i played better as well and didnt just get super lucky, tho i also did lmfao
Thought guan yu was unusable at level 1 but guess you can pull off a win, I had to sell all the boons I got after tartarus since none were working in my favor, had to scramble together a build near the end haha
Had the most legendary build, had the pre-reqs for Artemis' legendary as well but was not lucky enough to get a fourth
I face tanked the heroes and redacted with this build
It also shredded them
I had 7 dashes and athena dash and sturdy while dash-striking which I was constantly doing. Also had restore HP if you dash after getting hit. I was constantly dash striking with the gilgamesh claws. It was also my first time attempting the timed pact, which I destroyed. Very fun run!
hoarding slash is pretty insane if u never spend any gold
dash strike did what, like 300?
First time escaped using Bow after many failed attempts! It ain't much but it's honest work
Just holding down special
Finally got my first run complete ๐
Just got my second win with this overkill survivability build. Also featuring: broken resolve, empty inside, after party, premium vintage, greatest reflex and divine dash.
Cold back stabber build!
if only your god pool could have allowed for parting shot 
haha chiron go brrrrr
poison galor! XD
finally managed a below 12 minute run
goddamn
Under twelve minutes...
and here i was thinking gilgamesh was the slowest fist aspect
did you intentionally cut off your health bar? i'm curious about it
ah yea I did, ||wasn't sure if the Warden part of the health bar is too much of a spoiler to be posted here||
I had three death defiances still, one was purchased after I lost it to the hydra, and I think I had around 180 max health?
oh i wouldn't worry about titles here, they get posted in victory screens all the time. pretty sure it's not an issue
but that's very considerate of you 
good to know, thank you
Can't be bothered to link an account to post screenshots so you get crappy photo of the most fun build I've had yet (only about 40 runs deep tho)
Didn't even notice I only had 145 health until right now 
ugh. all achievments achieved! still haven't maxed Hypnos, Demeter, or ||Persephone|| yet but it sounds like it'd take forever
First win... Yay!

My first win btw
congrats!
way too close whew
joining the dash train
Probably the dumbest run I've ever done
https://i.imgur.com/i79GTCd.jpg
I wanted to do a funny poseidon aspect slicing shot run but it devolved into this
How much fun?
the great thing about eris is that, even if splitting bolt doesn't work out, literally anything can work on it
in this case, zeus' aid was doing hella damage it had no business doing
oh, very, very fun
i posted a small clip in #h1-builds-and-combat 
Universal damage bonus almost as strong as the final Keepsake? Yes please.
sooooo busted
I love this game
all these eris screens making me want to get back on the eris train 
come back to us
It's the only fun way to play the rail
Neat dio cast build with eris
Big chunk of damage
Maybe as much as merciful end
If not more
I actually like rail now
Shield has become my least fav weapon
I think as a goal I'll go for a sub 15 with Coronacht, wish me luck. Also nice victories.
Congrats on your first win, honestly! Not bad a build also imo
very nice, very big booms
yes first sword win i think
kinetic launcher is pretty fun
What is that not the ideal weapon?
I'm kind of starting to get used to high heat runs
Zoom zoom
Feather is a good incentive to go fast
Wanted to knock the achievement outta the way haha
My pb before was ~22 mins so it felt good to sub 15
Might try and get some quick times more often now, it was fun
Thanks mate!
Was a bit blessed on the RNG to get lightning strike and support fire on a lambent plume run
If only the zeus attack was higher rarity haha
The thesius fight in particular went really well
Proc'd both sub 50 at the same time and then murdered them with dio call during thesius' call bit
Haha I just realised the Hades fight was within the plume timer too since that just went up
I did it guys after 45 runs not giving up is the key.
nice
Just sword? That's dedication
Lol I stubbornly wanted my first win to be the sword
I mean, looking at that username
congrats on first clear!
Nicely done!
This was a lot of stabbing
FIRST CLEAR. Felt great to finally stick it to the old man
First attempt EM4! ares doom stack is crazy with chiron
positively dashing my dear Poseidon
can you say FIFTY CLEARS
3 duos before elysium
blade rift is actually kinda good
Nice! Join the club!
My 5th victory. I have never not gotten down to my last death defy. Huh, Aspect of Chiron + Relentless Volley seems REALLY good. It feels like it handed me the win.
I know I'm also definitely getting better at the game, but that's a really really strong combo.
that crit with the support arrows + the crit + the Ares dots + the Urge to Kill
I was trying to min/max some dmg
@nocturne bronze Sounds pretty pog.
so sometimes I picked Dio first
to get the % dmg fountain bonus
there was a run I got it during the very first chamber rofl
stacked like 25% dmg just by healing in fountains
plus the pierced butterfly
plus the crit
roftstomped theseus and minotaur
in like 25 sec rofl
Woohoo!
Congrats
and another to end off the night
gratz
That's a new subtitle
aphrodite legendry was so good with this bow
legit canceled hades attacks many times xD
Arthemis with Support + Crit + Dash Strike is op, you should try it @peak blade
i will i have been using aphrodite boons to see how they are not gonna lie they are pretty good and her call is awesome too when u get full gauge
yeah, 2500 dmg is neat
i like to proc Dio Call with + % dmg when you use call with the hangover debuffs
there are some many combos on this game
bow record yay
still kinda mad i didn't get ice wine
i... i didn't need it
but i wanted it
First time playing with 5 rockets. You could say I had a ||blast
||
rocket shotgun best gun
Hestia just chonks the world.
Easiest superdad run of my life. Divine Protection is a livesaver
Second win with Bow, and it's apparently the fastest one now O_O
hera + point blank + explosive = pretty good stuff
Broke my record
And that is EM4 clapped. Rama is a beast.
Anyone tried Festive Fog Build? It's insane, first time Hades didn't even touch me
my favorite thing that occasionally happens is when i stand still and bull man charges in circles around me
Managed to try out and make hoarding slash work
cant believe i actually won with this jank
the bomb dealt over 2500 a crit
this one was pretty stupid
and this is the most fun run ive had in the game so far
vengeance build is so fun
32 heat lets go
Another good Eris run.
My 5th streak. Longest so far. before getting rekt on the attempt to get 6th.
My first sub 20 on Hera of all things. that 1200 damage four gem strike really made quick work of Hades
Perfect Clear Zag Shield (low heat and Acorn charges used up, but still).
This was the weirdes build, even more so since I aimed for legendary boon of Dio... But the early Poseidon legendary made dashing the main source of damage for everything except bosses. This was insane... but fun. 
I was going for Artemis's legendary and ended up with a pure laser build
Damn, just realized that I included Flash Fire instead of the triple shot that turns it into a three-way beam fire
that's a lot of lasers
Most of the final boss was right-clicking a bunch and then hiding behind one of the pillar stumps
valid strat, tbh
lmao
i love that you went so hard on hoarding slash you didn't even get an attack boon
i think maybe you should spoiler tag that, tho?
sorry, i thought about it but figured since i wasnt meantioning any conditions or anything about it other than it happening it might be okay. sorry
no worries
i didnt get amny boons that run. and I was looking for an attack boon in last area, didnt get one from searching and wasnt going to buy one. i also didnt grab one before cause i was using the broken shakle as a pretend one to see if that was an alright replacment
fair enough
yeah i used to think it was weird to get to hades with an unfilled core boon slot, but now it seems to happen to me all the time lol
I tend to avoid cast altering ones if I can, personally
I just use those for the debuffs they slap on enemies, so when you have stuff that slices their range or messes up who ends up with the stone like zeus's lightning it gets in the way more
i actually favor the opposite. the ones that dont get stuck in people so i can use them more often. but i oalso forget i have them for large parts of runs sometimes.
cause when i remember them i like to spam them
I dont get cast boon unless its Poseidon, it sticks in people ( I cant stand to leave the 50% damage boost on the floor) and I like the knock back all the better if I can get some Zeus duo on it
Beo is pretty nice
Does a big chunk of damage
But Iโm not sure how to feel about standing there and waiting to retrieve the stones
Had an awesome run last night with the Zeus shield, Ares special inflicting Doom and the Athena attack with Duo boon meaning every attack popped a stack of doom from the spinning special. It was so good.
Machine Gun build
Wow that looks insane
@tardy hamlet that is the like the Exodia caster build haha
Yeah, and that with aspect of Poseidon really made the build that much broken
Only needed Exit Wounds to truly break the game
crystal beam is good
just got my first hades victory and i have to say that is the most satsfying victory ive had in any game in a long time!
46 runs to get to the family secret achievement, probably quite average
These were some of the biggest numbers I have ever seen.
wow thats some crazy backstab damage
Zag, you're drunk. Go home.
Damn 1,500 crits feel good
Congration!
Finally, heat 32 is done.
Get away from me!
had a lot of fun with dio cast on 4th shield, EXPLOSION!!!
@slender salmon ive never even played that aspect, let alone did 32 with it. what are you looking for as your build?
@slender salmon ive never even played that aspect, let alone did 32 with it. what are you looking for as your build?
@lean frigate The damage boost you get from manually reloading is BIG. It's almost fullscreen too. Demeter is ideal for the main attack because you don't stagger foes, so slowing them is a big plus. Other than that, just get Athena's dash and try to pump your attack as much as possible. Triple special is REALLY good too.
Just don't try to rush it. I didn't die until I got to the final boss.
demeter attack over artemis tho?
@lean frigate I usually prefer big base damage over the crit chance. Wouldn't be bad at all, though.
aight, ty~
Do share results!
Second win! Almost sub 20, probably would've been if I got Flurry Shot sooner rather than right before the end.
I got to hades with aspect of chiron and lost all 3 death defiances to him and his adds and died so it's encouraging to see these chiron wins!
having to stand still to charge my attacks is still something that I haven't gotten used to, or I'm not picking my shots judiciously
I've pretty much only been dash striking, makes the hit charge faster from what I can tell.
I finally got the final boon I needed. Demeter is so elusive!
@lean frigate That's great!
How do you change your victory window?
contractor will offer it some time
I got both Poseidon and Zues legendary's with their duo boon. My first time beating hades and i did with only using one death defiance!
nice!
Congrats!
Wolverine is best ;d
definitely my favorite now
first heat 32 win
First Heat 16 victory. I now respect the power of Chiron's Aspect a lot more.
@slim berry 4th aspect of the Bow will make you happy
40 heat win, couldn't have done it without Patroclus' help
finally can unlock skelly's last statue
16 heat, under 18 minutes. Feels nice after failing so many 32 heat attempts
I think rather than jumping straight up to 32, I'm gonna move it up to 16 on all weapons, then go up by 4 heat each time
New to roguelikes, but I finally got my first clear 
gun.
yeah took it because dark bonus
Hi this is my first run but I beat the game already :0... kidding this is my 1st win.
anyways what do I do with this screen? I received no instruction so i dont want to mess up what I click
well, first of all, you can choose which boons to display by clicking them
U can pin 5 boons or hammers or aspects
For viewing purposes
And then thatโs it
You can close the screen
^
And have a cool moment of lore
oh, i thought Im going to retain them for the succeeding runs :((
hahaha no such luck
too bad anyway thanks! wanted to do a risk of rain barrage of powerups
a compendium of completed runs would be cool in a future update
have all of them saved while being able to favorite specific ones like your best times
yeah, the security log is kind of lacking in many respects
I'm in rare form tonight!
fun variety death build
where are my three duos and a legendary in my heat runs? Super fun I bet lol
Ah ha! Victory! For the first time! Apparently, I just needed to go all in on Zeus...
||No damage Hades flex. (granted i did use acorn but whatever)||
Finally! ...44 attempts later 
Posting to show off how i turned into a Raiden shooter
Fairly slow and with low heat but the Athena + Guan Yu spin combo was possibly the safest I've ever been.
papa wooped my ass in phase 2, so close
finally got a hidden aspect victory!!!
cast damage is fun, but exit wounds is also fun
Mainly Zeus+Poseidon boons, picking up Aphro for Smouldering Air. Very quick fight vs final boss.
finally getting more wins in
That was one of the most fun runs I've ever had with the shield. New Chaos aspect with Charged Shot and a ton of Poseidon on the Attack was just awesome.
First victory!!! New to rougelikes, and I got stuck on Hades over and over again for a while. But I made it!
First of many!
Yes! thank you! :3
Forgot to print screen when I finished cause I was so relieved, but my 32 pact run with Aegis for the last ||statue||
First 16 Heat run! previous highest was 9
Best streak so far.
I'm so happy but ugh so mad at 3 chamber Styx...
Literally would've had a sub 15 if Hades didn't summon 3 times, or if it were a 2 chamber, but I'm still happy to pb by a whole 3 minutes.
Mm yes, the claws are pretty good actually
46 heat Chiron
Finally, my first win with a fist weapon. Incidentally my fastest too so far.
lets go first dub
haha laser go bzzzz
Well this was fun. Right click next to final boss and watch one third of his HP just vanish over a few seconds
I didn't pick up a single daedalus hammer when it became obvious that it wouldn't help me lol
finally got the demeter legendary! Only one more to go to complete the legendaries prophecy. So frustrating when i have to choose weaker boons/rooms just to try and complete the prophecy
Extreme Measures 4 
just beat Hades for the first time
congrats!
I also escaped for the first time yesterday
