Golden Rule with Engagement Ring is bonkers.
I had it with Zeus cast and was doing just over 800 damage on each strike... I didnt even put atemis' keepsake for last zone cause I wasnt going for speed and I knew it would be overkill af. I love me some golden rule, can suck getting the RNG for it tho :P
Edit: I also had around 7100 gold, and an epic zeus cast (no poms). With dmg buffs applying to the original cast plus 710 damage from golden rule, I know see why it did so much XD. Im sad cause i tried to recreate it with cyclone sprint but learned it does not apply to sprint dmg, might still work with cyclone cast lol.
Damn this is what Hoarding Slash wishes it was in H1.
"Wait, the best boon in the game is Side Hustle?"
"Always has been."
The Golden Rule of Hades is that Side Hustle is the best boon
I can empathize with the "it's too easy" angle. The fear options that really add difficulty are almost all restrictive in some way. Many make it harder to get the build you want or make it so only certain builds are viable. That's a different experience than playing the game at 0 fear, and some players (myself included) like it less. So having a sufficient challenge at 0 fear is a worthwhile goal imo.
I do think this gets fixed if/when they add an extreme measures fear equivalent. In Hades 1 I basically always ran with EM4 on and nothing else because the more challenging boss fights were fun and I didn't enjoy feeling restricted in my build by other heat options. EM also requires by far the most dev time though, so we'll just have to wait for it on hades 2 to up the challenge level of the "no fear" game.
You can also use faster enemies and more health fears too for more difficulty which is not restrictive, I think.
Personally, I really don't like custom difficulty settings. It feels bad choosing the way your run is going to be worse and usually you try to take ones that aren't going to affect you anyway or you have to take things which make the run less fun like you said. I just want the devs to define the challenge and then let me figure out how to overcome it.
@@darthelmet1 So, just to make sure I understand, you just don't like the heat/fear system in general? I'm not trying to be sarcastic, I'm just not 100% sure I'm clear on what you mean.
@@rock21611 Yeah.
Half the fun of taking double up for me is Poseidon’s laugh! 😂
Right now for me, my meta is Hestia, Demeter, Aphrodite, and Poseidon. Their boon combos are way too nuts.
"So how do you win"
"Well you see, you get Elementary Particles and then you kill Chronos and you win"
@@PhilipAlexanderHassialis Chronos hates this combo! See how this one-stop boon can turn your runs into complete cakewalk!
@@f3nn3lgaming i think best boon kinda vary per weapon/aspect. Zeus for example is extremely strong for Aspect of Momus staff. you'd be crazy to not choose him. the blitz has insane synergy with double casting omega's.
Poseidon+Appolo is still best way to play Dagger because of two reasons. 1) Poseidon hit-on has extreme synergy with daggers weakness in clearing and high damage and Appolo's boon where if your dazed, you can backstab enemy for 100% damage is practically made for Dagger. +legendary double casting the dagger throw for aspect of pan is no brainer.
For torches, Hestia is by far best user for Torches. Pyre technique and Primary burn is literally only two boon needed to win. The rest doesn't even matter. Air quality for scorch is nice side bonus. everything else is meaningless. Demester duo for fire extinquisher doesn't really matter as long you pomming pyre technique.
Axe: Axe is best user of Hitch in this current patch. Engagement ring on axe clears every room. even rolling it on special is sufficient for most of the run. Offensive boon are pretty subjective. there is like many ways to build it. "Chain reaction" which is Hephaestus+Hestia duo is one way to build axe with legendary Hephaestus boon. Another way to play axe is Aphrodite's primary attack and going for her legendary. The other way is to pick Demester and go for like Spin to win Freeze build with Weed killer, Aim for Appolo's legendary on special, Lucid gain and any of those connecting boons.
I hate playing skull so i have no real builds with it. What I like to do with Skull is build cast damage. I always aim to get Ionic gain mana boon as opening or Zeus cast. After that, I aim to get Zeus+Demester's Hail storm duo boon. Weed killer is good for omega attack. After that, I go for Glorious disaster and attempt to get Appolo's legendary. that's ideal build path for me on skull but getting those boon is difficult. I also prefer to spam omega primary at range over what most people do with skull which is use Aspect of Medea and roll for that broken Possessing Array Hammer, Often opt for Aphrodite's attack boon.
gonna try this
Golden Rule with Apollo's omega cast is so much fun
I've been real big on "Heresy" since the most recent patch.
As in if there's a Hera I see I don't think much beyond that. Her best boon got heavily nerfed and she's somehow even better in spite of it.
And honestly Born Gain is still super good. Definitely some of the best regen boons
Born Gain is still busted lol
"I've been real big on Heresy"
"Yes Imperial Inquisitor, it's this guy Logain Wolfe, he has confessed to his sins"
Love that LOL
You can call it the Blasphemy build. Hera-see? Hera-take(tic)!
Dude, that was utter stompination.
On a completely different note:
You know, I wouldn't stop gathering meta currencies for now even if I don't need them anymore now.
I'm almost sure that we will have something like "8888 darkness" quest, or themes, or ranks in the future. Something that'll be some colossal grind.
I thought Hestia's burnt offering could raise your hp with white antler. I was doing the Chaos trial with Moros's axe and bought her boon in the shop right before Scylla. It gave me enough health to just barely beat the trial on my first try.
I just finished a run with Golden Rule. Got it in the Mourning Fields when I had like 400 gold. Ended up with 1800 gold at the end lol
Damn ! These damage just don't make sense anymore !
Question : So the Golden rule damage buffs ALL types of damages (boons like Blitz, splash, scorch, etc), or only the base attacks, special & cast ?
No, golden rule applies a flat amount of damage that scales with your gold. So it adds a flat amount on every hit like Poseidon's attack/spec. This damage cannot be increased through other sources(maybe some arcana) but it can crit
@@michaelvandermerwe9320 appolo exceptional talent+poseidon/hera duo on axe is dream build for golden rule. spin to win with double scaling on golden rule per hit. you can easily do like 6000 damage in 1 spin.
@@michaelvandermerwe9320 Umm... no, that's not correct. It's a percentage damage boost. According to everything I can find, it's always been a percentage boost, so I have no idea where you're getting that.
(Edit) Hold on, no, I know where you got that, that's how Hoarding Slash works in the first game. Did you just assume that it was the same and correct someone else based on that assumption?
@@rock21611 got changed in patch 4 to be a percentage damage boost. Theres even a vid here on the old one that shows how it used to work
Does engagement ring apply hitch when it's casted on a foe that is already in the encounter?
It does, but only ones in the circle
love your pfp, Your Infernal Majesty
Yeah, it applies Hirch to any enemies in the circle, even if they've already spawned.
I just did a "maximum health" run with Melinoe's axe, Demetr and Afro duo and all that things like incantation and chaos boons. Max health in the end was 554, Chronos does 999 dmg with his ultimate at second phaze, i wonder if u can tank it with just health...maybe a video idea?
I think the thing about the boss songs is that they stand out because of lyrics and you hear them every run, compared to the background music which just... fades into the background. I can definitely see how people might find it repetitive, especially if they end up playing a long time, as you often do with a roguelike.
Can’t wait for the inevitable Judgment run
Judgement happened already
@@oonanoodle2896 oh shoot my bad, what’s the title for it?
Really enjoy the videos, the speed runs are fun but I'd like to see you try get as stupidly strong as possible in a run, taking absoutely everything. You might have done this already or on stream but I dont get much time to watch streams. enjoying regardless.
Can you be more specific? I basically do that every run as is unless I want to test something else out.
@@Haelian When I typed this you was on the final area and was taking the express route, which makes complete sense for speed, similarly on the cerb area you was doing what you needed to do to open the doors, again makes sense for speed. This run you was incredibly strong, but what I'm curious is how much further can that be pushed, what is the absolute highest raw damage you can do in a run, regardless of speed.
@@shaun1705 I hear ya then, I'm sure we'll revisit the gold record some day (we have a video here already getting way more gold but it was before patch 3).
nice thumbnail
Imagine with 12k gold like the run before the patch
King and Queen's Ransoms also got buffed!
It's tomorrow >.
I had rerolls get Doubled Up earlier today!
Why does he press pause so often?
It pauses the timer.
To be more specific than the other two replies, the timer vow (aka you have 9/7/5 minutes to clear each zone, any leftover time is added to the timer for the rest of the run) pauses when you pause the game but whatever is not hidden by the UI is visible so you can check stuff like exits and think without losing time.
@@WizardofWestmarch thank you :)
Real dont pay to win build
New god ?

Fiiiiirst
beat you to it
