Hades II

Just tried it for the first time to see what you both were talking about and yeah...not doing this again for a while.

Is the basic idea to spam omega attack??

[Melena]

Nice man. He is really a step up in difficulty from the rest kd the bosses. Feels really good once the fight clicks and you can beat him consistently

My biggest issue seems to be his thrown Scythe. I can't seem to pick it up to dodge in the right direction. Honestly, biggest reason I got to second phase that run was I had the Hephaestus 200dmg on attack at a heroic boon, so it was every 2 seconds and was upgraded I think to where it was doing 400 dmg every two seconds.

I'm pretty sure that's the only way to do it. but you have to get super lucky that the map boons aren't too split up, i think you NEED the duo water ball boon, you have to take every event room and elite room possible, and not get hit to preserve your apollo damage buff. also ideally you get the Apollo daze back stab buff. it's a lot to ask

cat adds some dps to boss fight, also if one of the big yellow things start sucking you in, might as well restart.

just way too much rng. it's lame lol

If you get the opportunity, pick up the cast buff from

hades

. If you get that with Apollo or demeter cast you can just kite to victory.

It makes the bind circle track the mob as well as deal 200 damage. With Apollo cast explosions or demeter dot, he goes down safe and easy

Right now I think

Spoiler: show

Eris and Cronos

are a bit overtuned. Like they went pretty ham with her especially.That weapon can take you out in SECONDS if you make one bad move. Some of it *might* be intentional since there's no real endgame so to speak. That's a complete guess on my end, but I suspect to see them nerfed a bit by the time the game comes out, or at least adjusted.

[Krandor]

So for that fight specifically, if you can get one of the "sprint to destroy ranged shots" boons, she literally can't do shit to you as long you avoid the big AOEs.

Run around and absorb any shots she makes, get in a few hits while she reloads, rinse and repeat.

That's a good boon, but when you start getting better synergies going you're generally going to see numbers more like this for each attack.



That was my favorite build so far, mainly because it wasn't just spamming one ability. Using all three to build steam was fun (forgot to pin it but normal attack was also scorch).

[kisada]

additionally, eris has a hard time hitting you if you just keep moving/strafing around her. once you get used to her timings you can dodge pretty much everything she does pretty cleanly.

[Krandor]

Absolute God Tier Build i just got a clear with, tons of hits from the Twisting Crash effect to proc a bunch of Blitz + chain lightnings buffed to 30 damage to easily boost of Aspect of Persphone.

Just melted everything and didn't even need a single death defiance feelsgoodman.jpg

[Starby]

I'm like the aspect of Melinoe better for the skulls. Persephone needs a glory tracking icon, I never know when it's gonna happen

[Krandor]

Isn't it the icon next to the skulls? It just doesn't really track properly

[kisada]

don't think i ever got aspect of persephone? also i'll +1 the steam thing lol. gosh that was so sick when i got it, i obliterated chronos

[kisada]

is there a way to show those expanded victory screens by going back to the ghost dude in base? or is it only a screencap you can get right after winning? i can't seem to click on anything interesting in base so i see icons but i couldn't remember what's what lmao

[Odesseiron]

As of right now, I don't think there's a way of looking up past runs. Pretty sure it was a thing in Hades. It's been requested in the feedback section of their discord. It might just not be implemented right now.

[Krandor]

You can unlock it, but it doesn't give you the full detail like the victory screen does.

[Starby]

Yeah there's a cauldron purchase for it. Similar to hades 1 I bought and and haven't used it. I'm on 70ish runs so far. Still can't believe this is early access.

I had a good run with the maracas finally. I really enjoyed the aspect that the projectiles return to you when you dash. Can set them up line traps and dash 10+ back to you at a time for pretty big damage.

[Melena]

Fuck, I was so damn close to my first Chronus kill.

Had him down to less than 10%.

Fucked myself by exiting the safe circle a frame or two too early from his auto kill move, wasting my last death defiance.

Had another good run going and my kitten decided to turn off my surge protector trying to go behind my desk......

lol cats are so funny

[Melena]

lol cats are so funny

Yup, so funny I went to walmart at 9pm so I could find a surge protector that has it's switch in a location that is not on top as she's killed 3 other runs for me the same way lol.

[Krandor]

If you didn't already find one you can get something like a Tripp Lite surge protector with a cover over the power switch.
