I was so happy yesterday, elated that I reached Hades AND beat him, only to have him come back to full health and end me...not cool

There’s also Charm which just charms an enemy to fight for you but it’s the only status that’s nerfed against Hades during the boss fight so it’s not something you should base your entire build on

how the hell did you know I had that

Zeus shield - this is secretly bonkers powerful and feels great to play with. take Zeus keepsake and get the lightning special. Practice with skelly to determine how far away you need to stand to land your shield directly on him from all 4 directions. Practice throwing your shield against a wall, and having it come to a stop after it bounces. Practice throwing your shield, pressing again to call for it's return early, then dashing around and having the shield chase behind you. With these techniques mastered and the Zeus special you will tear through the game.


just unlocked this, its pretty fun

The game refuses to let me get that far with him. I've done over a dozen runs now since maxing out Skelly's friendship bar, the first sword aspect, and unlocking a bunch of others, multiple completed runs, and he still hasn't given me anything to progress the quest with him. I don't know if I'm bugged or something but I've done everything the wiki says and then just did a bunch of runs since then to try and trigger him to say or do something, and no go. I just want Skelly to be my best friend dammit. :(

have you tried dying quick while speaking to him each time?

I really don't like the Elysium boss fight, specifically how Theseus is always shield blocking outside of moments of vulnerability. I can beat them just fine, but it's just more tedious than fun.

after he throws his spear he will always turn around and walk for a bit, not that bad

I used the sword yesterday, because I wanted to unlock the secret one, so I put 5 blood in the first one and went for a run to trigger Nyx dialogue. Went all the way and beat Hades! Used Lambent Plume and got at least 1 Hermes dodge boons. Its a good wep. Still didnt get Nyx dialogue...

I can only pet 1 head, although I think that has to do with ummm like animation constraints you know.

Theseus is probably my biggest run killer at this point. Especially when he starts calling for a god, having to maneuver around those AOEs plus ty to get around his shield really messes me up.

just run and dodge his spear then immediately dash to him and get some hits in, since he always turns his back and walks away afterwards. Its one of the easiest fights for me now.

A literal choice.

Meg approaches you in your room and you get the option to embrace it or back off

I think I just spammed past that...she did show up but I dont remember a choice. Does she show up in there more than once?

Got the 10th clear last night, spoilers ahead for a big cheese strategy I used:

I learned from this thread that Hades just lets you pass on the 10th clear... so I loaded up every single Heat I hadn't already cleared with (was like 16 heat total) and used the sword (only weapon I hadn't cleared with). Died first time, but second try I got to Hades, and he let me through without a fight, so boom: I walked away clearing the heat- and weapon-specific prophecies and got like 25 titan blood in one fell swoop.

Big cheese time but I don't care it was worth it.

Nice, Im gonna do that

I saved juice till after I beat Hades at about run 21...that was a mistake due to how this stuff works. Now Im pumping everyone except Gods will all the juice they can handle(till they get locked)

I am not a monster. I visit my good shade after every single victory against Theseus and Asterius.

On my 129th run, I realized for the first time you have a fan in Asterius' mini-boss room too. :ohdear:
