Nice! I had a pretty silly build with Zag aspect + flurry slash, piercing wave, 30% attack speed from hermes, and athena attack. Just hold down the attack button and deflect everything.
This was how I got my first sword clear. I’d pretty much run out of defiance’s so thought “sod it I’ll get cursed slash now for the prophecy as I’ll never clear” and have never had an easier clear it was phenomenal!
Halfway through Asphodel I was ready to get mad that you ruined the movement speed zoom run but this ended up being way better than just maxing out movement speed.
having done a cursed/flurry slash build before I can confirm even at base attack speed you can, in fact, outheal poison edit: nvm you did it right after I posted this lmao
I had something like this against the Lernie that Spawns minions. I used it to grind over 500 gold from killing the minions and only stopped because I got bored
Pretty sure you've had a run with this build, but my favorite invincible build is Posidon Call, Aphro/Zeus Duo, Pressure Point and Hunters Instinct from Artemis, Clouded Judgement from Zeus, Rip Current from Posidon, and then just about any other boons you want. Pretty much 100% uptime on the call, get enough poms on it and you deal stupid damage. Hella fun to run.
"Can I heal through poison you think?" No. I've tried, it does more and more damage each tick, so you will die, regardless of regen. Unless you clear the encounter fast enough so that it doesn't stack too high.
@@gianlukeoni1776 Oh OK, so that would mean OP was technically wrong in that it's the rate of the ticks which increases rather than the damage of each one. (Only a pedant like me would care about a distinction like that though.)
lol, wow. i've never tried this. the game keeps surprising me. thanks for showcasing this haeiian. btw, merciful end on this hammer combo is probably hilarious OP.
Watched your videos recently and for a mistake i set the timer for 5 minutes and did 5 straight wins with different weapons in a speedrun manner. I couldnt fit the spear in for 6 weapon swap run.
>"can't take 69% more foes, I'll loose all the bops" > proceeds to obliterate every room in less than half the time required for plume, showing he could probably still do it even with 100% more foes
Ah Yes, my first win. +Aphrodite's Legendary, Charm per hit. Can't Lose. Hahah Glad I could watch Stream Haelian even though just for a while since your Lunch is my REM sleep schedule Hahahah. Great Stuff.
I am asking this here because I could not find anywhere else. He mentioned he would be reaching the max boop amount in the beginning of the run (if not I might have understood it wrong - if so, apologies for that). So is there an actual maximum amount of boops you can have whilst using Thanatos or Hermes keepsake? Or did i get something wrong. I'm legitimately curious about this. Thanks to anyone who answer me.
It's just limited to how many combat chambers you complete successfully. You can skip combat chambers by entering shops/events/fountains, which means less boops.
@@Haelian Got it. Thanks. So supposedly if I didn't get hit all the way until styx I'd be getting bonus regardless of how overpowered I would get, right?
created a new save file. And touched the stars too soon... Run 2 I get enough drops to have a death defying bonus, run 3 : I get the Daedalus Cursed Slash as the introductory boon. I reached the minotaur on that 3rd run ... my 25th ever. Had reached the Theseus + Minotaur fight a couple runs before on my other save file.... Now I dream of Cursed Slash every passing moment
The boost from nourished soul doesn't actually do anything in practice unfortunately. :( Since cursed slash only heals 2hp, the % increase from nourished soul just rounds down back to 2.
As iam a noob, can some explain me what happened there? Even without the heal, he basically just stand infront of enemies and hold donw Y. Is that due to the attack speed? And why came zerberus and meg ocassionally in?
Yeah. He had a hammer to increase attack speed and a Hermes boon that boosted it even more. Enemies were too stunned to do anything. ETA: I know the difference between a hammer and a sword, I swear.
As you progress through the game you unlock companion items that let you summon support from a friend. Meg is one of these. With extreme measures 4 on the pact of punishment turned on, Hades gets new attacks and summoning Cerberus is one of them.
You can get it offered as his first boon if you're using his keepsake, otherwise you need Flurry Cast or Quick Reload (Auto-Reload when using Stygian Soul).
How does this "losing a boon for the run" works? As I understand the game enforces a % of run vs meta room rewards. How can player choice influence the run? Asking cuz I researched this and did find the answer EDIT: Just realized he said *boop* meaning the hermes keepsake buff lmao

i remember getting this build and laughing maniacally throughout the whole thing
That's a GREAT revenge on the game :)
You made me laugh.
Me too! That was my first finished run of Hades, and it was last night. :)
Best line from the stream: "I have to say bonk a lot faster now, this is sub-optimal."
This was the combo I used to get my very first Hades kill!
Same here
Yup, same. Just facetanked everything to oblivion.
me too
almost somehow died
Yo same
Same here!
dad why did you go into a chaos rift and never come back
When I got this combo + Sea Storm on the attack it was the most fun i've ever had with zag's sword
I'll make sure to kiss Eurydice if I want a specific boon to be upgraded. Thanks for the tip.
this build was my favorite creation and made me clear my first 32 heat run with extreme measures 4, im so excited to watch you play with it
The fact that hades said the sword cant help you when those daedalus hammers made this build is so funny to me.
Nice! I had a pretty silly build with Zag aspect + flurry slash, piercing wave, 30% attack speed from hermes, and athena attack. Just hold down the attack button and deflect everything.
The Athena attack must have been amazing. Is that a jedi build? You know, because you deflect stuff with your sword?
@@Nevict I did indeed become one with the force
@@simonds3182
Nice. XD
Had a fist run with 40% attack speed and athena
Safe to say i could pretty much stand still in a corner and punch all my problem away

i would like it but its at 69 likes

The opposite of One Punch Man right here...a gazillion Punch Man

That is one impervious bobber to not be melted by the lava when fishing...
It's enchanted by Poseidon.
how do you know if u gonna get hammer or what the first boon will be? in order to start specific builds
I recently had this build with Hermes epic attack and it was just ridiculous
one step from eden mentioned, swell with broken keyboards over fighting sicily
I love your little intros
this video should have been titled Bonk Run with 0 explanation offered
The fact that he got 2 heroic books in a row is absolutely crazy, I haven't even gotten 1
>"can't take 69% more foes, I'll loose all the bops"
> proceeds to obliterate every room in less than half the time required for plume, showing he could probably still do it even with 100% more foes
Honestly, used this combo to beat hades for the first time. All other weapons paled in fun after that.
14:22 I didnt think Dan was a CHEATER
999 bonks per minute, coooool! i had the same stupid idea, but i never thought it would work lol
My favourite build still has to be Dio/Zeus with aspect of hades
Spear for massive screen covering AoE
THE BONKENING.
Literally JUST got this combination like an hour ago... It was so great. Just stand on top of an enemy and hold Y to win.
Ah Yes, my first win.
+Aphrodite's Legendary, Charm per hit.
Can't Lose. Hahah
Glad I could watch Stream Haelian even though just for a while since your Lunch is my REM sleep schedule Hahahah. Great Stuff.
I use Athena a lot! For deflecting with a dash or with my attack. Or even both and then I just go full-blown dash-strike massacre lol.
Cursed slash sword doesn't afraid of anything
just tried this build and omg that was probably one of the easiest wins ive ever had
I had this combo with level six hangover strike
Fear my artic blast....
hello, how did you open the boon menu, and pause at the same time ?
13:44
i swear i tried to hit the two keys at the same time, and it doesn't work
I just hit the button to open boons and then hit Pause after, nothing fancy, I'm on PC if it makes a difference.
@@Haelian hmm weird, thanks !
How to get an option to reroll the boons ?
I got flurry slash and cursed slash in one of my early runs and still wasn't able to achieve a victory
Flurry slash kinda looks like the paint brush from splatoon
Can you do this on heat 32?
How come you always exit the room before beginning your run? You modify the Pact of Punishment, then exit, then start the run. Why?
Old speedrunning habit mostly, saves any changes I made in Skelly's room in case I restart.
Can you actually roll for rarity? Or does it default to common
"invincible build"
God mode users: Build?
I know this is an irrelevant question, but how do I get that decorative theme?
Late game unlocks at the contractor for a lot of resources
@@MichaelRigoni the only one's that I don't have are stygian and woodlands. Is it one of those?
Accidentally got this on my third run, almost beat hades on that one lol
Did you get to hades on ur 1st or 2nd run?
Roll for rarity should be a tshirt

What controller do you use?
Nowadays usually an Xbox One controller
When does Hades get 3 health bars / phases?
Extreme Measures 4 (late game unlock)
When are you usually streaming? Not that easy as european to see you online
Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays 12 PM EST - 7ish. The About Me on my twitch page should convert for you.
Someone take the sword swing bpm and put it to a song the same speed PLEASE
is this guy blazed 24/7 lol?
New watcher, what are boops?
Pretty sure he's referring to the Lambent Plume triggering its effect when he clears an encounter quickly enough.
Imagine having nourished sould with this
The boost from nourished soul doesn't actually do anything in practice unfortunately. :( Since cursed slash only heals 2hp, the % increase from nourished soul just rounds down back to 2.
What are boops?
Why do you always go back in your bedroom before starting the run, some benefit?
iirc every time you go to mirror it autosaves, so if the run was to be restarted, all the weapons, keepsakes and such are also saved
@@kikokiko8394 Ok Thx
Coolest build ever. you must get it later. I can't see any of those boons on my list.
Cursed Slash is perfect of a Vengeance build

hes also using the feather to stack passive dodge chance - which is useful damage mitigation when not avoiding attacks intentionally
How is he doing so much DPS i dont understand
What is a boop?
I guess a boop here translates to how fast we're Flurry Slashing.
Funnily enough, as of clicking this video, I have never found a Demeter boon, even though I have gotten to Asterius, but not killed him
You have to get to the hades boss fight once. It doesn't show up prior
i got the hermes legendary without the keepsake tho
You can get it offered as his first boon if you're using his keepsake, otherwise you need Flurry Cast or Quick Reload (Auto-Reload when using Stygian Soul).
@@Haelian ah yes, thanks. i had quick reload
Why do you always run out of the room and Conrad back again?
It saves when you move between rooms so if he has to reset the loadout is saved.
