Hades is a roguelike action role-playing video game developed and published by Supergiant Games. The game was released for Microsoft Windows and Nintendo Switch on September 17, 2020, which followed an early access release from December 2018. Players control Zagreus, the son of Hades, as he attempts to escape from Underworld to reach Mount Olympus, at times aided by gifts bestowed on him from the other Olympians. Each run challenges the player through a random series of rooms populated with enemies and rewards, and the player uses a combination of their main weapon attack, dash power, and magic ability to defeat them while avoiding damage to progress as far as possible. While Zagreus will often die, the player can use gained treasure to improve certain attributes or unlock new weapons and abilities to improve chances of escaping on subsequent runs.

Try Artemis with Ares as a duo boon 😛
Skipped the ranged upgrade for the sword… lel then complains about his melee skills
I just had my first win today actually using the sword. Athena deflect on special with a focus on the special is op
ares/demeter duo boon. get something from demeter that chills and ares cast. blade rift travels slower and inflicts chill…just sayin
irregardless is not a word
I'm terrible at this game…but one of my best sword runs was with a hammer upgrade that makes the attack heal everytime you hit with it…I feel like you'd enjoy it so keep your eye out for it
Pally, when you get the blade rift cast, the crystals don't stick in enemies any more. That makes the Aspect of Poseidon on the sword pointless.
"Deflect on dash would go well with this."
Passes up two Athena boons
You ran into my own problem with sword runs. I stand my ground and then get hit by everything, which you also had happen, beyond of course just standing in damage AOEs
Note, armor acts as a damage gate, even if they have 1 armor remaining and you deal 2000 damage, you will only deal damage to the armor, not to the underlying health.
I've been saying it and will say it again, embrace diversity in this game. Always take boons whenever you can. Always use everything in your arsenal. Always optimise for the mirror bonuses (i.e. Stick crystals in foes, backstab, etc). If you want to tackle higher punishment, you need to change your playstyle. You can't hope to stick to 1 or 2 gods and get good outcomes every run. If you want to win consistantly, embrace diversity. Takes a bit of work to get used to it, but trust me, once you're there, you can't stop.
There is an ares boon that has your blade rifts pull in enemies. But in over 80 escape attempts, I've still not gotten it.
STOP KILLING SKELLY WHEN HE WANTS TO TALK TO YOU!!!!!
the sword is officially my fave after i unlocked the last aspect. also using the sword you're always living on the edge, best to take the life steal hammer buff honestly. i found it makes the sword alot easier to be hyper aggressive aswell as replacing the extra lives with the 1 extra life per room (is the alt version of the +3 lives in the mirror) like if you do the math it's just flat out better in every way it's like having a life you can throw away every room because it keeps refreshing when you complete the rooms
Viewer engagement ♥
yoooo
hold on
Ares cast doesnt stick on enemies
so the sword kinda useless tho
Like sideshow bob in a field of rakes.
I'm v v bad with the sword too Pally! Don't know what it is… Maybe lack of a viable ranged option? (without a hammer upgrade at least)
Day #3 of begging Pally to try Aspect of Chiron
Pally hates fishing i guess. Walked right by a fishing spot.
Love the Hades Content! ❤️
I find the knockback on the swords dash attack and last hit to more of a hindrance. My best runs have been when I get the hammer that turns it into a fast attack speed 25 DMG a hit
Hey Pally, still loving the Hades content!
Quick tip: the final weapon variations with ???? names are revealed after you unlock 5 or 6 of the other variations in total, so it may be wise to spend a few titan bloods to unlock the other weaps even if you don't use them!
Pally, please use your cast more. Your damage could have so much potential, and enemies won't be so tanky
Hey Pally, really loving the content!
If you were gonna try blade rift build again, definitely try some Artemis boons in there for no reason at all
Also kinda small but you never checked the other mirror trait on the higher epic chance.
Hint: I f you use the aspect of Poseidon, try to get the Artemis boon that does damage when you extract a gem from enemies. Easy combo there 😉
What was in the satchel he ignored in the first shop behind the shop keeper ?
Why not doom on your special and then throw it in once every time doom aint there and something else that stacks on your main weapon attack like the posion or the chill effect that is getting better by hitting much.
If you're going to take the "take less damage and do more damage when you have no cast" you be putting those out asap every time. It's 20% more damage and 10% less damage while you have no cast.
Pally: I really love how the story is told through repeated dialogue and conversations in the game
Also pally: skips conversations relatively regularly
Another thing you could work on pally is keeping your cast on targets especially bosses. There's a mirror talent that either gives you more damage or causes them to do less damage bases on the number of casts in them.
FYI Pally :3 The dash attack with the sword stabs, but you can stab sideways and slide next to enemies and this way you stab in an aoe :3
I personally hate the sword… Yet my clear record bellow 20 minutes is with a sword.. because it increases movement speed and stacks nicely with Hermes locket
Can someone please tell him about the sound that dings when there's a fish…you don't need to visually look for fish.
Please for the love of all that is holy.. SLOW DOWN!!! You miss so many fishing spots and urns with gold etc. You don't need to speed through it all unless you have the timer on.
Please stop picking up the boon that gives you % damage when you have no casts because you NEVER use your cast; even after picking it up.
in the mirror there is something called "Privileged Status" where you do up to +40% damage if the foe is afflicted by two "curse status" effects.
Hey pally there is a duo for the blades with Ares and Artemis called hunting blades
Small trick with those little exploding chariots – you can kite them into the wall (like Asterius) , they will explode aand you dont have to take unnecesary damage 😉
And regarding guided ares cast, they are possible, but they require duo boon (with artemis i think), i would recommend to check codex so you knopw what to take to have chance to get it
Hey pally! Would you like a little bit of spoiler free coaching?
I think you might have hit the wall most players hit while playing this game.
It would take you to the next level of enjoying this game 😁
hey pally idk if you know but there is a perk in the mirror that lets you recover health every time you pick up darkness and I find it to be very useful on a lot of runs. Also if you look in the contractors menu you can buy a bed for cerberus. seems like it would be on brand for you to do that haha. enjoying the videos!
7:56 that's mostly a gun secret
10:44 at max rank posidon sword has +50% cast damage. It is in fact ridiculous
You really need to unlock Priviledged status on the mirror, it would have done miracles for you this run.
pally is simping for Meg.
that's a great build you got there
42:59 that's what artemis duo does
"ARES!!" (in Kratos voice)
We both need to get some sleep <3
You gotta stop playing at 5 am and making piss poor decision my mate, it is painful to watch you pick shite boons and skipping the good ones
Keep going man, there is romance option for meg.
And thanatos too 😀
