huh. it seems Chronos was sped up at 36:30 for w/e reason. those orbs looked like they flew faster than usual and he walked faster? trying to time it, it was from 19:30.44 on timer left to 19:26.88, so 3.6s~. comparing to previous video it was 18:35.88 to 18:31.29, or 4.6s…
I don't remember him having varying orb speeds at least, unless he does for different health breakpoints and I forgot?
this has been my favorite build for about two weeks now. the most busted I've been able to get it was with Poseidon on Special with Hestia's Cast and their duo, along with both Poseidon and Apollo's legendary. Controlled burn, Super Nova, and Glowing Coal also help with this build. I also had Hook Knives instead of Boundless Flurry, and got faster omegas from Chaos. I've tried getting the Aphro/Poseidon duo, and it works, but until you get the duo you have to be so close to everything and even with the duo it doesn't beat the DPS from steam. the only weak link in the build is having to take Apollo's gain for the legendary.
I wish there was something to block Hecate's Hex though. Maybe in the future
Pan kinda needs Boundless Flurry though, or else you won't be using its extra knives at all in a lot of situations (but most importantly Chronos.) I think increasing the starting number of omega knives in a way that it will take the same amount of time for full charge as other aspects, is one way of making it feel good without making it too imba.
As someone who is still learning and didn't play Hades 1, hearing your commentary and thought process is extremely helpful!
beast soothed @ 29 min ??? more like beast freezed… it's like you poured liquid nitrogen over cerby there 😭☠️
Wow, you got 130 percent special damage from demeter, 80 something percent from chaos, and then 40 percent from the hammer and then just doubled that lmfao
i really really like this style of video!! super helpful and your solo commentary is so so so good!!
I had this same build a few days back, but with poseidon special and it melted all guardians. Chronos never felt easier.
Every time I use the well to buy a Chaos Gate for Stage 4, it makes me choose between the gate and the special character room. I'm not sure if that's the mechanic, or I'm just unlucky. I rarely buy the gate as a result.
I think Hera could have been a really good god here. She makes the cast last 200% longer (and enemies take cast damage right as they spawn), would probably make it easier for both keeping the cast up AND for the magic regen
I hate boundless fury because technically it does nothing. You use 33% magic only but u also fire 33% of the total blades.
I wonder if they should just let some/all of the mana-regen boons work while channeling. It'd be one way to bring them up closer to hera's, even if the numbers are nerfed a bit, since mana-using builds want to spend a lot of time channeling.
Would Hera's cast work well with the Pan knives? Since it makes the circle last longer
First off, that was the fastest cerberus kill I've ever seen.
Secondly, the build could have been slightly better had you sold lucid gain to Nem and gotten born again from hera. You also could have gone for hera cast so your cast lasts longer, but I guess that doesn't really matter when you're throwing 32 knives at an enemy, dealing 210% damage each.
My favourite is pan + hook knives + concentrated flurry/dancing knives/spiral knives + posidon special + Hestia cast + slip + Hestia posidon duo boon.
This gets every buff going as soon as the battle starts and basically treats your enemy as a pincushion. Melts bosses like they don't exist.
I remember my first actual clear of the game. I managed to get the Echo third hammer, which gave me Hook-Knives, Boundless Flurry and the hammer that makes your Omega shoot in a straight line with Apollo + increased Backstab damage. I don't know if that backstab damage is increased from Hook-Knives, but I sure was impressed with the sheer unadulterated amounts of damage I did in that one run.
I've yet to get a third hammer from Echo since that run, sadly. I've gotten the anvil in the final shop to give me Hook Knives, Boundless Flurry and Spiral Knives with Pan since then, but that was just pure luck that it removed my attack second hammer and gave me BF/SK hammers. When I was already running Aphro/Poseidon duo boon. Needless to say, that was the fastest clear of Chronos I've ever had.
yea the hexes feel like the worst part of the game to me
I've already watch quite a few videos of you and I really really like them, but in this one you talk way too much for me ^^ like 99% of the time 😮 Just my thought/need, kindly. I will keep watching you ofc, but I needed to share my annoyance. Thank you a lot and keep having fun :))
I know we are all just used to playing with timer on but…if you are just doing a showcase anyway, you might just consider turning the timer off so you dont have to pause all the time while explaining? It really just doesnt add anything 😀
Sister Blades, Aspect of Pan is just so unbelievably good, esp if you get the 16 shots hammer. This game is so well done and so fun already! Also, the speed at which you just BLASTED through Cerberus is insane XD
Spiral Knives and Concentrated Flurry on Pan is insanely busted. Aphro special and a chaos special one shot phases every boss. You can also drop the cast down while channeling.
How do you so often start with hammers? Think I've only had 1 hammer start per like 68 nights, you get multiple a day lol
When will you do sprint only run?
If you want damage, you should try the Thanatos aspect on Zorephet, with the Artemis keepsake, the Aphrodite boon on the attack of course, and the arcanes set up to keep you at 30hp. Risky run but the damages are insane… I got Cronos in 8min with it, so, pretty strong.
Lol what at that Cerberus fight?
What if you dont pick the card that slows down when channeling? Will the magic generate while channeling then? Like you sacrifice regen for slowdown? Should be like that to be honest!
Edit, after watching Chronos fight i thought. Maybe i should play some other game this seems silly and unpolished xD Saw that a very polished game named Astral ascent youst released 8new weapons, im off to playu that for some while instead!
How do ensure a game seed with a specific hammer, Haelian? Do you just kill yourself over and over until you find it and then "give up" or is there a way to set the seed and save yourself the time…
Day 1 of asking Haelian how to beat Trial of Haste from the Pitch-Black Mirror
oh they reduced the god cap from 4 to 3?
I was drinking tea when you started the Cerby fight. Nearly spit it all out on my screen laughing when I saw the damage !
15 seconds ! That's got to be the most hilariously short Cerby fight I've ever seen ! Poor doggo couldn't even launch a single attack.
And what to say about the Chronos fight ! That was filthy !
I hope the devs won't nerf it too much in future updates.
Im still surprised that each god still has relatively few boons. I thought they would at least up it with 50% from hades 2, but nope.
You know, I wish that expanding ring from Appolo did some more. Like, its super funny looking, but its just really not that special to make the cast bigger with no other effect.
What do you need to do to unlock the aspect tree?
You basically did a Dio build!
"Stop" time, throw knives at opponents and throw a road roller (Selene's hex)
I actually like the hammer that makes your special shoot straight, the fan/shotgun makes you miss some knives whereas the straight shot just pumps them all in 1 direction and further and it hits harder.
Lmao this is genuinely broken !! Love it
Dude the one that makes them go in a line with pan is insane, the 4-6 ones that miss simply don't anymore
I'm hoping for a larger map with expanded God pool on the big update!
i think poseidons problem is that his cast and sprint are really niche and useless most of the time
this almost made me feel bad for chronos
The best Dagger build with the highest dps for me has been aspect of Pan with:
Poseidon heroic special(There's 2/3 chance of getting heroic special by using Poseidon keepsake and Aromatic Vial),
Hookshot hammer,
Special Flurry hammer(reduces the mana cost and quickens the special speed),
Hermes special speed boon,
Born Gain, and
Poseidon slip effect.
(Honorary mentions: Chaos boons, Hestia Omega Special additional flame, Apollo legendary, and Icarus Omega attack explosion(OP on this build btw) are nice to have if you can get them.)
Poseidon special deals a lot of dmg, especially with Hookshot hammer.
Flurry hammer and Hermes can easily bump the channel speed to near instant, so you can easily spam the special with a slight button hold.
Born Gain helps you spam the special, and Slip effect not only increases dmg, but is also half of The Origination effect; If you have The Furies then Demeter/Aphrodite cast + Slippery Slope will activate both The Origination and The Furies.
i wasnt sure when you brought it up in last overexplained video .. now i believe there is something built into code about godpool on reroll at the first miniboss .. i dont think this was the case in hades 1
Jeez, this damage combo doesn't even give you a chance to make mistakes lol
since we already had legendary and no 3rd god, i would have given up lucid gain to nemesis in oceanus and hoped for born gain
This exact build with hook knives is even better
“That was pretty good”
13:00
What a weird bug, its almost as if the frog ate the hex?? Time to f10
