Speedruns are so funny to consider from a canon perspective Hecate is at the cauldron and Dora floats up to her like "MISTRESS HECATE!" She's like "Let me guess, Melinoe died in the first room again?" And Dora is like "NO. SHE FUCKING BEAT HIM"
Well from a canon perspective on fresh file there would be no "again". She would go out and come back on the first night and Hecate would be like you WHAT??? Edit: Nevermind I went to comments before watching the video
I know you skip straight through it for the sake of speed, but it's still pretty cool to know that there's unique dialogue if you reach Chronos without meeting him beforehand
There is! He doesn't recognize you and asks "Who might you be?" I haven't read through the whole thing, but there should be a couple frames with it visible in the run if you pause well enough.
Fun fact: They didn't in the first game, but when they saw how speedrunners were playing the game, they added one. So they were already for it when they made Hades II :)
pro tip, if you try using a locked exit in the 3rd region, it'll give you the arrow towards any unclaimed rewards needed to unlock them so you don't have to wander around looking for it
Yeah that a mistake to take, I wasn't aware at that point that Poseidon Legendary was locked behind story progression, so I just kept trying to find it.
Firstly, I’m very well aware of you and I’m a fan. I would’ve never considered an Eris push, I love that idea. I also love this run because I’m a big fan of the Poseidon/Hestia duo. But holy bleep is Fields a wild card. I’m guessing you would’ve loved to not see the phantom? And then you had to have been nervous as all hell the last 6 seconds. My god. G fucking G, man.
I don't actually know how much the arcana cost and which would be valuable, but I think it is unlikely to be worth it since you would need to make up any time you spend farming
Awesome run! Wish poseidon special spam wasnt meta tho lol. Question, why take the extra chamber in tartarus for poms? Did you feel like you needed more damage for chronos?
I had the Double Up boon from Poseidon, which currently works on poms, so I knew I had a chance for a quick 6 poms, which felt worth the extra chamber.
Theres still a lot of unbalanced stuff in this game really. I know first game had some OP stuff but it was ususally a near finished build, or bugs like "bad news" boon and Beowulf shield with mirage cast. here its more individual stuff thats unbalanced also the mana system feels not fully adjusted. Its early access, so we wait to see whats changed on that aspect.
It's for sure possible - another speedrunner, Sophie, has a segmented clear where she only died because of a bug with the instakill attack where she was inside the circle, and then easily cleared the fight after reloading the save. I'm sure that a full clear is going to happen soon, probably within the week. It's probably not going to be as fast as 3rd or 4th run for a while though, because of the hammers you unlock after the first run.
Do you think that a night 1 would ever be possible? You have to beat the 2/3s of the game without getting hit. I made it a few room in to level 2 on my first night but got hit once and died.
It's actually been done by a handful of people already. The run takes longer because you don't have hammers and you have to play a bit safer, but it's definitely doable.
The gold leaves dont lead to each reward, in my experience. They can help you find the first one maybe, but the other ones don't have leaves leading straight to them
It's random, but you have a limited god pool in Fresh File, so the odds of seeing a specific god are higher. I just got really lucky this run, although by the end I would have liked to see something other than Poseidon
From my understanding it's to do 3 things: -Unlock the hammers for your weapon (1st death) -Push back Eris from spawning in an earlier biome (3rd death) -Force a Hestia boon to appear as the first one (3rd death)

There are also some trees you can activate that do the same, but they take a short time to do so
@@ArgorLp pretty sure you need an incantation for that though
@@BrooklynDoge Really?
Never paid attention, but it always worked for me
Yeah its an incantation you have to unlook first
20:51 such bad luck to have all replacement boons hahaha. can see you taking a beat to figure out which one is the least shit
Yeah that a mistake to take, I wasn't aware at that point that Poseidon Legendary was locked behind story progression, so I just kept trying to find it.
Amazing achievement, well played! Cant wait to see how low this time can go
Congrats!
30:46 I would have shit my pants, on god fr fr
Zeus on a pogo stick! Amazing job my man!

You are the GOAT!
Awesome run, and a fun spin on "Fresh Start". Do you think it could be worth farming some arcana cards to get one of the damage buffs?

@@Museus7 Yeah 6 poms is crazy good

LFG!
Do you think it is possible to beat chronos on the first try?

Carple Tunnel speed run
So this is how I find out not all Posedion boons suck....someone still needs to show me Zues boons being good tho lol
axe w blitz omega attack go burrr . kind of feels like ares boons

What boon was it that was giving you that steam animation again? It’s not vent from hepatitis is it?
No, it's Scalding Vapor - the Hestia + Poseidon duo boon
bro hepatitis is a sickness
please follow the gold leaves on the ground in fields of mourning lol
The gold leaves dont lead to each reward, in my experience. They can help you find the first one maybe, but the other ones don't have leaves leading straight to them
The leaves only lead to the tree.
how do you get poseidon boons so frequent? it is random right
It's random, but you have a limited god pool in Fresh File, so the odds of seeing a specific god are higher. I just got really lucky this run, although by the end I would have liked to see something other than Poseidon
Why do you get kill 3 time before start The run ?
Dying 3 times guarantees that you start with Hestia, unlocks both hammers, and pushes Eris back to the Fields instead of Oceanus
Why the first death? couldn't you had go straight through the whole game right away?
You can for sure go through the game on the first run, but it is significantly harder and slower for now
What does death farming do?
Unlocks some stuff, also prevents Eris from giving you a progressive debuff
Mmmmh Eris can debuff you but if you dont take any damage her debuff is useless ^^
From my understanding it's to do 3 things:
-Unlock the hammers for your weapon (1st death)
-Push back Eris from spawning in an earlier biome (3rd death)
-Force a Hestia boon to appear as the first one (3rd death)
do you think this speedrun could go down to 25mins?
Absolutely, this was only my first completed run, there's a ton of room for improvement.
