Awesome 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
Really nice 👌 😍💋 💝💖❤️
I usually see no reason to take Pom Porridge from Eurydice when the other two options are so much better.
Great video sir
Here take my like, sub and respect
Your voice hair & u so handsome sexy hot 🔥
Thanks so much for this, very helpful! One thing I also found useful is giving my first nectar to Skelly for the Lucky Tooth keepsake.
Hi Matt, hope you are having a good Christmas, almost 1000 subs! well done mate. Quality content once again. Cheers, Ian
As a new player. Find this super useful thanks to your calming voice. Keep up the great work
Hi Matt, would you mind make a video about how to use Demeter's Boons like those 40-50 minute long videos explanation? Also, a video about the pact of punishment will also be great.
Great guide(s)! I've made a number of Hades guides myself on my channel, but I love how you get "into the system" and dive into the numbers. Subbed!
Answering a couple of questions in your video:
(1) IMO Eurydice's pom is often the best choice actually. It really depends on the boons, but many times the jump in the early levels is greater than the jump in rarity (and you get 4 of them as opposed to two Ambrosia). A note for your viewers: if the Eurydice's option you select doesn't upgrade the boons you want, you can simply quit and choose a different gift.
(2) I think you may have touched upon this, but there are prerequisites to even be offered many of the boons (e.g., duo and legendary boons). These can be found in the codex.
(3) If you already have 4 basic gods on your bench and don't want one, you can use the Pool of Purging and then equip the keepsake of the god you want. Note that in this way it's possible to have 5 basic gods on your bench.
(4) The absolute best source for "all" damage boost is the Hyper Sprint + Rush Delivery combo from Hermes (up to +100% boost).
Anyone else watch this right after picking Pom porridge?
Good content. Earned my sub.
In regard to re-rolls, a more approachable option is to purchase the upgrade from the contractor that makes getting keys as room rewards also give rerolls. I'm not sure when this becomes available but I find I get more keys early on when there aren't as many good options for doors to take so they become very valuable for shaping my build later on.
this guy def an engineer
Does selling one god's only boon takes him out of the gods pool for that run? For example, you only have the call from Athena and she was the 4th god to enter the pool, does that mean that you can now get another forth god?
Could you please show a couple of scenes from gameplay where you explain why you decided to dash or to attack on a certain character. How you choose to be in a certain location or when you commited to an attack. I find hard in Elysium and Styx to take considerable damage.
this was extremely helpful, thanks!
Here's my use for Pom Porridge:
Essentially, when I get to Eurydice, I'd really like to get Ambrosia Delight, so it hits my main boons that my build revolves around. However, if I don't get it, and it hits stuff I don't care about, I just quit the run, go back in (it puts you back in the beginning of the room), and, since they fixed it so you can't "cheese" this by retaking Ambrosia Delight and thus getting a different boon Rarity Up, since I know which boons get it, then I just take Pom Porridge if I just want more power overall. (it has more chance to hit my main boons, plus, after all, it is like getting 4 Poms, so that's neat)
I also take Refreshing Nectar if my build isn't complete yet (if I'm going for specific Duo/Legendary boons that I haven't gotten yet), and wanna increase my chances at finishing it.
So, so far, I've been liking all 3 options in their own separate right.
NOTE: The thing is, I'd take Pom Porridge over Ambrosia Delight IF I wasn't able to "check" what Ambrosia Delight hits by quitting and going back, but since it's an option, I go for it.
ALSO, it seems you can quit after taking Ambrosia Delight ONLY once.
If you do it, and try to roll Ambrosia Delight again thinking you'll get different hits, not only will you get the same boons upgraded in rarity, but the Quit option will be greyed out.
You can then try to quit the game by closing it in Task Manager, but I don't suggest this. It's kinda buggy, and sometimes it works, and sometimes it just Abandons your run, so it's not worth the risk.
I love your guides. thanks a lot
I only pick porridge if I want one specific thing to be upgraded and don't want to risk the lower odd of the rarity increase because I have too many boons.
