  1. finally, Heph boons that are actually almost at the minimum possible times, I don't think we've ever had a youtube video with you getting both the attack and the special as low as you can, this'll be goooooodge

    this nachos discussion is weird for me since I'm vegetarian so I can only eat it with beans on my nachos, I really can't contribute here… but I will say that I enjoy beans on nachos 😀

  2. One funny build i use is "MEGA BONK"
    Black Coat
    – Ω attack
    – Grand Caldera
    – Rude Awakening
    – World Collider
    Basically one punch mega bonk the size of the blast

  3. I think nachos have a wide variety of possibilities, and you want 2 – 3 of them at a time. like your options are

    – cheese
    – beef / chicken / etc
    – beans
    – salsa
    – sour cream
    – veggies (peppers, lettuce, tomato, etc)

    …and then from there you mix and match any combination of 2 – 3 of these toppings depending on how heavy you want your nacho to be. when you do 4+ of the options you start running into the problem of either overloading your chip or mixing the elements too much to where they become less appealing, or things just start getting soggy

  4. pretty sure that so far all the lines about Ares are more or less "haven't heard from him in a while, but it's a war, he's probably having fun" personally I think he's also been captured, like Hades. would explain why he's not checking in with Olympus, avoids the "ares as a bad guy" trope, and calls back to a myth where he actually was captured.

  5. I know this is a skill issue at the end of the day but I'm really struggling with Medea builds because the basic special doesn't negate damage, but the omega special does. Makes Bawlders really frustrating to fight if you don't have high Magick or regen.

  6. i think it would be cool if ares could hijack a chamber like athena, but instead of giving you a boon immediately he would make you fight him for it. not as in a nemesis/heracles situation where you compete against them, a straight up mini boss encounter. he's not necessarily against olympus, but something like not being to hold himself back at all times during such an intense war or something, idk

  7. I’ve recently tried heph paired with respective appolo/hestia duos, it was a pure slamming. Appolo’s blinding cast, hestia’s magic gain/sprint, overpommed heph’s attack/special and other heph’s blast related boons (caldera for radius and vent for origination). Since cast is applying daze continuously, double blast from hestia+heph duo triggers appolo+heph duo two times!
    Weapon probably doesn’t matter, I did it with blades.

    Strangely, it was also working with heph’s sprint, although it is not a requirement for hestia+heph duo 🤷🏻‍♂️
