@@jackshapiro4668 They were tricked by Apollo IIRC. And their Norse equivalents were tricked by someone stealing their eye. Tricking the fates is a pretty common motif through a lot of mythology.
So it was my first time fighting him. Having had regrettable experiences previously with Bosses, I tried to keep it slow and observe his kit. Turns out he was so apeshit so I went apeshit too and what do you know, it worked.
Charon in mythology: I am a humble man who simply takes people to Tartarus, there’s no need to fight me Charon in hades: see that bag of money? Touch it and die
I discovered this fight right after my first successful escape attempt and I died within minutes. So, I guess Charon is more powerful than hades himself lmao
@@NeatPick your gameplay got really good in your last episodes of the game, it was really thrilling to watch you play on hopeless scenarios. Thank you for playing the game for me and the others! * w *
I think Charon has Hoarding slash equipped on his oar. Think about it. He uses his oar as a sword. It even has that AOE secondary attack to it too. And he has a lot of obols on hand, so 5 percent increase times a LOT gives him a huge attack bonus.
I just got this myself. "What's his symbol behind me for? What does borrow mean?" I thought. Then Zag said "Wow!! Thanks Charon!!" with complete and utter sincerity and I thought "Wow u can buy a lot of gold for only 300 gold" Then I got completely and utterly dominated and humbled. A bad time to have SD equipped over DD.
this fight is my favourite fight and I found him to be one of the best Hades boss attack are fair and easy to read yet deadly if you mess up, I've always fight him when I got a chance 20% saving can jack your run lmao
I use Charons trinket all the time, his wells are OP, his shop saves games and he gives a sure fire way to farm titan blood and diamonds. He's also the first character i 100%'ed, gave him all my nectar and Ambrosia,etc. Why did i steal the gold from my bro for life then? For the memes.
Wait a minute, Hardest, or one of the hardest fights in the game coming from someone you wouldn't expect to be powerful Fights you because you sinned (Stealing is in the ten commandments) Skeleton Blueish eyes...OH NOOOOO
@@MV96_Also, rewatching and replaying, he actually isn't a skeleton, idk why I thought he was, but you can clearly see flesh on his arms albeit they're a bit pale.
Agreed! At first I was like, Oh man! 20% off!?! For the rest of the game? Nice." Nope. I've fought him once and he wiped out what otherwise was looking like a good run.

I just discovered this yesterday and I'm still laughing at the record scratch.
The record scratch part gets me everytime.
It's like the game itself is saying "dafuq man?"
:) Yeah, that was funny
Hahaha same
I love it
Zagreus: *touches a random bag of gold*
Charon: So you have chosen... death..
Zagreus: Well...I mean I'm immortal mate, sooooooo...yes
Bruh ik
Thantos, "I'm honored Zag, but I don't think of you that way."
@@XX-sp3tt This is the complete opposite of what happens in canon 😂
I love how he even makes throat slitting motion just to emphasize how screwed you are
Who knew Charon would be one of the most powerful beings in hell. Even Nyx said Thanatos would not be so bold as to challenge him to a fight.
Yeah, I was so surprised when i first fought him
@@fishyman9089 It would be almost impossible, because, you know, it’s kinda hard to fight someone who knows exactly what you’re about to do.
@@jackshapiro4668 People have tricked them before, though
@@mikewaters2126 Really? I didn’t know that.
@@jackshapiro4668 They were tricked by Apollo IIRC. And their Norse equivalents were tricked by someone stealing their eye. Tricking the fates is a pretty common motif through a lot of mythology.
"Hey, free money! Whoops-" He actually sounded genuine but also amused at the same time so I couldn't help but cackle
Charon has such a way with words, he sold us a one-life only membership card, best dealer 👍👍
Best dealer, bar none! Since we mortals don't even know what he is saying
Yeah it should definitely be a permanent thing I believe ! That fight was tough!
So it was my first time fighting him. Having had regrettable experiences previously with Bosses, I tried to keep it slow and observe his kit. Turns out he was so apeshit so I went apeshit too and what do you know, it worked.
When the unga outsmarts the bunga
@@richardo490LMAO?
So Charon could pretty dethrone Hades himself if he feels like doing so?
Yeah, pretty much!
basically he's been in the underworld before hades got there and it can't function without him
@@Dante45p so basically when you think about it Charon's the actual ruler of the underworld and Hades is more less a house guest
Charon is the owner of the Underworld and Hades is more like the CEO.
@@kuyagab4444 then Nyx is the founder.
I'm watching this because I'm too scared to steal from him myself. Plus we share an unspoken bond so I don't want to hurt his feelings
Charon in mythology: I am a humble man who simply takes people to Tartarus, there’s no need to fight me
Charon in hades: see that bag of money? Touch it and die
seems the dead don't tip very well
man's gotta make his money
@@camoking3609 very true, man's working 24/7
Ah, finally. One without obnoxious commentary, buried under a stretched out 30 minute video. Many thanks man
I discovered this fight right after my first successful escape attempt and I died within minutes. So, I guess Charon is more powerful than hades himself lmao
That was unfortunate timing with your Call.
Yeah, the fight would have ended then if my call was successful.
@@NeatPick your gameplay got really good in your last episodes of the game, it was really thrilling to watch you play on hopeless scenarios. Thank you for playing the game for me and the others! * w *
Thank you for watching!
Charon was the first being I've given nectar too I'd never betray him
Charon can't be bothered to fight you, so he gives you coupon
I think Charon has Hoarding slash equipped on his oar. Think about it. He uses his oar as a sword. It even has that AOE secondary attack to it too. And he has a lot of obols on hand, so 5 percent increase times a LOT gives him a huge attack bonus.
I just discovered this. As soon as I heard the record scratch I knew I was in for a treat
Its a lifetime membership card!
It expires after one run
@@NeatPick So one Life?
Yes
@@NeatPick Exactly, lifetime membership
Wow, you’re so clever! Never thought of it that way
I am genuinely scared of Charon than Hades. I was saying sorry for touching his money the entire time I fought him 😭
I just got this myself. "What's his symbol behind me for? What does borrow mean?" I thought.
Then Zag said "Wow!! Thanks Charon!!" with complete and utter sincerity and I thought "Wow u can buy a lot of gold for only 300 gold"
Then I got completely and utterly dominated and humbled. A bad time to have SD equipped over DD.
Charon is essentially EA, when he’s about to go under he tosses a discount.
Dead meme but ok
In summary: dont mess with Charon...because this will be you reward: a beating and a membership card if you survive.
Remember: Charon beat Kratos in God of War Chains of Olympus. So it’s no surprise he would be crazy hard in this game.
that botched artemis call
i feel that
0:27 honestly i couldnt help but hear Charon saying "Brrruuuuuuuuhh" here lmao
0:25 bruh the record snatch.
0:24
“Hey, free money!”
Bad move mate.
I randomly came upon it. Then I got the fight of my life lmao
this fight is my favourite fight and I found him to be one of the best Hades boss attack are fair and easy to read yet deadly if you mess up, I've always fight him when I got a chance 20% saving can jack your run lmao
By Charon's Oar....
.....what a savings.
i understand that reference!
Stealing from Charon? Oh you'd better believe that's a paddlin'.
I find it funny how the music cuts out with a record scratch
"Think you can beat me Charon?"
**gets 25 health knocked off immediately**
Zagreus: The only thing you can have faith in is yourself!
Charon: yOu'Re WrOnG...tHe OnLy ThInG yOu CaN hAvE fAiTh In Is MoNeEeEeY...
1:22 pain
Damn, this dude plays just like me fr. Spam dash attack, and hope you don't get bodied.
charon be like :THE FUCK MEN ?!!!
I use Charons trinket all the time, his wells are OP, his shop saves games and he gives a sure fire way to farm titan blood and diamonds. He's also the first character i 100%'ed, gave him all my nectar and Ambrosia,etc.
Why did i steal the gold from my bro for life then? For the memes.
The wasted call made me die inside.
so that's how you trigger it. it appears a couple of times in my playthrough i jusst ignore it
I'm thinking about doing this, but I don't want to upset him 😔😔
aspect of nemesis, man after my own heart
"Borrow"
This is the Shambler of Hades
It's the equivalent of rhe janitor in highschool being jacked and capable of fucking up a kid who doesn't know any better
Damn, this is so cool, he is my favorite character in the game so far and i didn't knew that just because i never wanted to steal from him xd
Wait, his name is pronounced Karon? I always thought his name was pronounced Charon
First thing i saw was free gold then it went 0 too 100 real quick
Is it permenent or just for the run you killed him
When you whiffed your Artemis
Oof
Did Artemis miss??
I've never even seen the bag
No one:
Literally no one:
Me: sees a bag full of money. "Hey free money! Whoops"
0:38 TRIGGERED
Wait a minute,
Hardest, or one of the hardest fights in the game coming from someone you wouldn't expect to be powerful
Fights you because you sinned (Stealing is in the ten commandments)
Skeleton
Blueish eyes...OH NOOOOO
YEEEEES
CHARON IS SANS
Also, Charon’s eyes are definitely purple
@@MV96_Also, rewatching and replaying, he actually isn't a skeleton, idk why I thought he was, but you can clearly see flesh on his arms albeit they're a bit pale.
Goes from, her free money 😀 to, sorry 🥺
I wanna flex that I deducted skelly working for charon just by noticing the coin inside his mouth hihi
Supported by the fact that Charon is the only one you can't use Skelly's companion on (besides Hades)
ive never done this because i didnt wanna be mean :c
And zag saying "you think you can beat me, charon?" RIGHT AFTER HE STOLE THE MONEY
Very not cool Zag
Hhh, hrreehhhhh!!
That is so not worth it at all
Agreed! At first I was like, Oh man! 20% off!?! For the rest of the game? Nice." Nope. I've fought him once and he wiped out what otherwise was looking like a good run.
It's worth it for the shock factor alone imo.
Record scratch tho lol
My fist secret boss im use pistol :/
