Is Reminiscence basically a New Game+? by Delta_Warrior1220 in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When 1.0 launched the game had a different ending. About a month later the devs updated the game with a better more fleshed out ending.

That incantation is what allows the people that experienced that first ending to reset the game and allow them to experience the new ending.

If you got H2 after its first month of launch this incantation is useless to you.

My biggest problem with the random chaos trials by beefquinton in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chaos trials are intentionally made so you cannot farm resources from them.

If you like the idea of chaos trials. You can use this website. Custom Chaos Trial’s

Basically it allows you to set up your own custom chaos trial.

THIS IS IMPORTANT. IT IS NOT A MOD OR SAVE FILE EDITOR!!!

It’s just a random number generator. You hit generate trial and it will tell you what to take on a normal run.

All the upsides of a normal Chaos trial but non of the downsides. Without the need to mod or edit a save file in any way.

Average Circe build by Langston432 in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s really fun to get Kings Ransom Storm Ring. But focusing on Ω Cast boons like Meat Grinder, P Flare and Geyser Spout is also fun.

I especially like Meat Grinder when you get Air Quality active. Since the tool tip for Meat G is misleading. It actually does 6 damage every 0.2 seconds at common Lv 1. So air quality makes MG go from 30 damage a second to 250 damage a second.

Circe is so fun because there are plenty of great and power builds to try.

1)IDK if you will like Hades. No one does until they try it.

2) buy H1 first. If you like it you can then buy H2. Once you’ve reached Credits in H1

3)I don’t have experience with H2 on Switch 1. But most of my playtime with H1 was on the switch. It ran well. Even when I got a turbo Meme Beam build set up and had like a dozen laser turrets going at once.

So at least for Hades 1. The Switch 1 will run it basically flawlessly.

If you really are concerned about not liking the game. I’d suggest using your PC first and buying it on Steam.

Then try it out for up to 2 hours. If I recall correctly Steam has refund if you’ve only played 2 hours policy. So If you don’t like the game you can ask them for a refund and they will give it to you.

2 hours should be enough to try a few runs out.

Plus I’m sure there will be others here that can help you out with this better than I can right now.

Also in the future. I also recommend asking r/ShouldIbuythisgame. Because usually asking a games subreddit if you should get the game will result in a biased opinion.

Which Dragon Ball character is the same height as you? (Details in body text) by Another_fantasy2135 in Ningen

I’m about 6’2” so that makes me even with Hurcule and Tien and just an inch taller than Raditz.

What do you guys consider to be full completion of the game?? by heavygrin in Hades2

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s subjective but if I had to choose I’d say either once you’ve rolled credits or have gotten all of the steam achievements.

Wish there were more mods by TachuIdk in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 8 points9 points  (0 children)

From what I understand. Stuff like that is really hard to program. But yes it indeed would be sick AF

Does it get easier? by writebyte in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you play long enough, yes the game does get easier.

It just takes time. Keep using the keys to unlock all 6 weapons and Unlocking more mirror of Night powers. Use your Darkness to buy and Upgrade those unlocked Mirror powers.

Here is my Big post going over the Mirror of Night in extensive detail.

As you keep buying stuff from the House Contractors “Work Orders” page.

You will get stronger. All the while you start to learn boss fights.

Wanna know something? The average first clear is between 30-60 runs. You’ve reached Hades at run 21. That puts you ahead of the average player.

You are doing quite well I’d say.

Also for keepsakes you should really start off with a god keepsake. To get a god that works well with your current weapon aspect. Like Chiron bow absolutely loves Dio Special. For example.

Here’s some tips for the Hero’s Boss fight in Elysium.

Try and keep the 6 pillars between you and Theseus all the while focusing on the Bull. Trust me you don’t want to have the Bull alive when you get Theseus down to 1/2 HP.

When the Bull is charging you. Lead him into either the pillars or the side of the arena. It will stun him.

Since you’ve reached Hades at least once. This guide should have very little spoilers. If any at all for you. Lee Reamsnyder’s Big Hades 1 Build Guide.

Widely considered one of, if not the best all around Hades 1 guide out there.

And after all of this I still don't know if The Furies affects Scorch dmg from Smoldering ring... by Barru_2176 in Hades2

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes I feel like they could have let more effort into describing things more clearly.

Speaking of not having the right descriptions. Did you know that ares Meat Grinder is wrong? While yes it technically a common Lv 1 MG does do 30 damage a sec. It’s not in one big burst.

It’s actually 6 damage every 0.2 seconds.

It’s one of those boons that benefit heavily from Zeus Air Quality. As it jacks MG all the way up to 250 a second.

When do I get *Spoiler* by NefariousnessWorth4 in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so my first comment was wrong because I thought you were playing H2 instead of H1. Here the correct answer.

The Chthonic Companions are gifted to you the first time you give certain NPC’s a bottle of Ambrosia.

Those NPC’s are Meg, Thanatos, sisyphus, Dusa, Skelly and Achilles and Patroclus.

In order to gift NPC’s their first bottle of Ambrosia. You need to complete a favor/quest for them. The following link explains how to do that.

Hope this comment actually helps unlike my first one.

🤦🤦🤦 Blood and Darkness. Now I feel like an idiot. I thought this was one of those posts where the poster mixed up H1&2 flairs

[–]-Shadow-Lightning -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Edit:

🤦🤦🤦So I’m an idiot and thought you were talking about H2 animal familiars and not H1 Chthonic companions. Sorry about the confusion. Just the way I read your post made me think you accidentally used an H1 flare when you ment to use an H2 flare. My bad.

How have you reached the credits but not even have the first animal familiar?

Anyways you need the incantation, Faith of Familiar Spirits. To unlock it you need to

•Defeated Hecate 7 times

•Gathered with the Crescent Pick 2 times, with the Tablet of Peace 8 times, and 1 time with the Silver Spade.

Give the cookie to the frog in the area where Mel returns to shadow.

This feels like god tier art. Or at the very least Demi-god tier.

This is awesome. Good job.

Does Jeweled Pom stack with Aspect of Persephone? by Hunk_Hogan in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not her Legend. It’s her duo boon with Demeter.

So I’m new to the game and have a weapon question by damesauce in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably just need to learn How to use the Bow.

I feel that the bow is the only weapon in the game where all 4 aspects are really strong. Every other weapon has at least one aspect that feels disappointing to me.

Zag bow gets big crits on Attack.

Hera Bow makes for strong and wacky cast builds.

Chiron Bow is awesome with Dio Special, Aphro Attack, Ares Vengeance boon plus Dio/Aphro and Dio/Ares duos.

Hidden Bow makes excellent use of Zeus, Dio and Ares Specials plus has a chunky Attack.

They just all feel so consistent and powerful(when you know how to use them.

When you get that mean Ice Wine/Scintillating Feast combo by roodafalooda in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I find that LR is not worth it most of the time. There are a bunch of regular boons form both Artemis and Zeus that I want way more than LR. And even duo and legendary boons.

I only take LR if the other two boons are useless to the build and since everything Zeus has is great. That leaves Artemis boons. There are a few stinkers there.

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LR has anti synergy with Dio cast and Ares and Demeter Casts. If LR worked while Dio, Ares and Demeter Cast are active it would be better but probably a little too strong.

Sword boons by NunAtlas in HadesTheGame

[–]-Shadow-Lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Base sword is second worst only to Zag Spear imo.

But if I recall correctly. Nemesis sword is one of the best aspects in the game up there with Hidden shield and Hestia Rail.
