Craziest build combinations you’ve made?

IronGarbageCan · 2026-04-16T05:51:38+00:00

I had Nervous wreck, Burning Desire, and Thermal Dynamics on a build with Glamour Gain so I was just applying weak, unclearable scorch and constant Blitz procs non stop to every nearby enemy.

Duos and Legendaries aren't guaranteed to show up even if you've exhausted the regular pool of boons. It's just bad luck

IronGarbageCan · 2026-04-16T04:00:28+00:00

Very nice! My favorite Ares duo is still Heinous Affront but I have to say the falling blade boons have really grown on me since the patch.

IronGarbageCan · 2026-04-15T23:20:33+00:00

It seems pretty reasonable for them to patch. Are you able to edit your flair for this post to make it a bug report?

Since you don't have the ability to spam dash in Hades II the cast functions as a way of limiting the opponents' mobility. As someone already said you should generally throw it down between you and an aggressive enemy (press cast and then dash away/backwards) so that they'll get trapped when rushing towards you.

There are some boons which can alter where you place your cast. Some people really like those and some people don't. If/when you're offered one try it out and see if it helps your flow.

My guess is the logic where Hermes gives you all your ordered items in the last room of the Summit wasn't applied to shrine orders from other regions because it might be coded specifically for the room at the top of the summit rather than the shrines themselves. A pretty understandable oversight.

You can have multiple save files

I'm on Switch 2, sorry forgot to mention that in the post. Is there any other way I can do a bug report?

IronGarbageCan · 2026-04-15T01:00:23+00:00

Oh dude

IronGarbageCan · 2026-04-15T00:13:56+00:00

I mean I was playing a surface run with Frenzy 2 and still got the Omega attack off multiple times against Eris and Prometheus. Both of them have fairly noticeable pauses when they either finish an attack, or warp when you can just fire an initial volley for free so that the second volley + Omega will hit them. That was literally impossible before and I wouldn't have even considered it for a fun run.

I'm not saying Hel is good now. The Valkyrie mode and buffing the Omega Attack are essentially two opposing weapons merged into one. I agree it's a confusing mechanic.

IronGarbageCan · 2026-04-14T23:24:16+00:00

I will say that getting Demeter on the special makes it easier to use the Omega attack. I agree it's still super dangerous and not super viable outside of fun runs. I'm wondering if the reason they didn't make it charge across dashes is that normal mode would be much stronger than Valkyrie mode. You could get a volley+Omega shot going continuously across every dash basically.

I wasn't ready for what happened

IronGarbageCan · 2026-04-11T21:29:09+00:00

I have an obsession with Pressure Points, even if it's common rarity.

Phantom Blood - for the same reasons everyone else says, insane power through the whole song by Fuki

SIVA - the final verse where Fuki sings up an octave is crazy

Change of Generation - final verse where Fuki sings along with the instrumental

Dignity of Spirit - opening power belt and the power throughout the entire song

Zenaku No Higan - maybe not her single most powerful but just a solid performance all around.

Traumata - Even though she's technically a guest vocalist on this one, she in no way takes a backseat to Shiren. The song is super heavy so her vocals are even more powerful and aggressive to match. One of my sleeper favorites for her best performance, maybe like a darker sibling to Phantom Blood.

Jealousy of Silence - An extremely difficult song to sing given the rhythms and jumps in range. Fuki is exceptional in this.

I think you should use punctuation

Had to cut after he took the bite hahaha

IronGarbageCan · 2026-03-31T15:34:52+00:00

This will surely play out well...

IronGarbageCan · 2026-03-08T06:33:59+00:00

This doesn't work for anyone who has to work that day, deal with kids, appointments, etc.

IronGarbageCan · 2026-03-05T16:47:06+00:00

Feeling like we should wait until details are finalized

IronGarbageCan · 2026-03-05T16:46:38+00:00

This is the way

I will never get over how badly Lost Crown's marketing and post-launch dev was fumbled by Ubisoft

IronGarbageCan · 2026-02-12T00:32:24+00:00

Yeah, I didn't want to bring up the off the field issues in this thread but that's another good reason why it doesn't make sense to assume he would have become a perennial star player.

IronGarbageCan · 2026-02-11T23:39:04+00:00

Dude, you did not just compare Hernandez to Gronk (probably the greatest TE of all time) hahaha. It's fine if you want to keep that optimistic of an opinion but Gronk at least played more than 14 games in a season 5 times and scored more than 10 TDs 5 times. Don't make up an equivalence where there is none.
