Dude the thumbnail got my hopes up for a patch 😅
the way my pulse went in the 100s when I saw the thumbnail and thought there was a patch :I
ka boom boom 😀
i thought they added dio noo 😭
I actually wonder if sister blades are meant to open Static Shock rather than Sworn Strike, because it gives them an actual AoE stagger.
Edit: Blades combo base damage is 20-20-20-10-10-10-80 with a 45 dash strike. So Sworn Strike (60%) adds 12-12-12-6-6-6-48 and 27 on dash strikes. Same rarity Static Shock adds 15 per hit, and the 15 damage lightning bounces are going to be more than Hitch damage at this stage. However, if you get Wicked Onslaught (which you might need to not die), Sworn Strike goes up to 24-24-24-18-18-18-60, and Lethal Snare (10%) multiplies the average damage increase of Sworn Strike by 1.2 while not affecting Static Shock, same with Artemis amping by 100% on average. And of course, Hitch will amp any other % boons you get as the run goes on, while Static Shock falls off, so the question might be whether you need Hitch to win the run, or you care more about just getting out of Erebus and can find other ways to win after that.
Don't forget that you get one omega cast for 300 AoE damage in each room early on. You have to shred barriers first, but you don't have moonstone AoE and base damage now, and just nuking a group of armored whispers, wailers, or wastrels (big claw guys) can really help with your bad range.
Apollo on attack might take care of the short reach… And really there are multiple options for attack (Aphrodite would also be good). How about starting with hephaestus to get a mint or trusty. Then pickup whatever you can on attack. Might allow you to be more aggressive?
DIO 🔥
why do you have dio on the thumbnail
You gonna put Dio in the thumbnail, title it "A New Challenger Approaches…" then act confused when people tell you the clickbait worked? lol
king of high heat returns lol
Sometimes it almost seems like the Artemis ability is wasted on the sister blades since it is 9 crits and you have a bunch of tiny attacks that use them up before you get to a big one. I guess if you have the magic to do the omega attack repeatedly you can get a lot of damage out of that, but playing without regen and/or priming a lot of magic away makes it feel weak to me especially with the long cooldown. Blades are my favorite, I really hope they buff them at least in some of the ways you've been mentioning. Keep up the great work, this has become my favorite Hades channel.
It'd be interesting if they made the parry thing have no recharge but the damage buff only occurs if you parry within a second of the block being up.
Also thanks for the video mate.
Given these youtube comments, I think the reasonable thing to do is to quietly commission art of Asclepius in SGG Hades artsyle and put it in the thumbnail of a video called: Exploring NEW STRATEGIES for 50 Fear runs! (In reality it's just Judgement with Circe's keepsake)
