It's insane to me how much damage a single smolder ring provides over the course of a run. Smolder ring, pyro technique, blitz, and shameless attitude are enough to win a 32 fear run on their own.
Eh smolder ring with pyro technique I’m not a fan of since the scorch expires faster than the cast can apply it (unless you Pom it like crazy), smolder ring is great though
Hera scamming you in the miniboss was really funny, same with the Stone taking the bad boon, that's rough xD and yeah, Ikea has hotdogs, they even have veggie dogs that I really like (whenever I visit my family near Indianapolis, I always go to Ikea with them because my parents like shopping and I like the veggie dogs lmao) oh noooooo, I hear you talking about the Christmas dinner 🤣🤣🤣 you poor poor souls LMFAO
32:27 the hitch dmg from the hit on the moneysack was bigger than the actual sprint hit. but when he went over to hit the other sack, chronos received no dmg. does hitch have a radius?
You know i think some of the duo boons would make good infusions because they are literally based on elements like Steam ( fire + water), Hailstorm( ice + electricity ).We can have one for Water + Ice too that makes freeze effect deal bonus dmg, cause targets to decay over time ( similar to killing freeze) . Wind + Fire would increase Scorch dmg when attacked by a wind boon and makes those targets deal Scorch as AOE in a small radius for like 2-3sec. It can turn into something similar that genshin impact does when u attack a mob with two synergising elemental atks. Which is probably more interesting than just increased attack power or slight boost to base dmg. Idk if it is viable though now u'll have to think more when deciding builds and u can't increase your chances of getting infusions unlike duos
Thermal dynamics really helped scorch pop off, it wasn't surprising honestly sprint mechanic seems iffy for hera, maybe if the change it to AOE around Mel instead of needing mobs it could be better kind of like thunder sprint.
I did a local climate engagement ring thing with Mel Coat and it starts off pretty rough until Local Climate gets it online. Makes for an interesting run though!
it depends how you use them. they're strategic boons because you can use them to unlock specific synergy without commiting a core boon. for example demeter dash is really good for origination. many gods that are primary attack don't have origination in their base attack. demester fixes that by giving you easy origination proc e.g appolo attack, aphrodite attack. Appolo's sprint allows you unlock his legendary without commiting the cast or the terrible mana boon he has. Hestia's sprint boon allow you to not commit into scorch but has huge synergy with aphrodite because their duo boon allow you to keep burn infinitely. so even if proc the sprint to apply like 2-3 burn is enough to make your sprint an secondary offence boon while still attacking. Poseidon and Zeus have offensive sprints. they're not really good in my opinion but you can use them on Skull because Skull dps is pretty bad on average so picking zeus sprint or poseidon sprint can be like secondary offence if you don't want to use "bad attacks". Heph has synergy with his ding dong build but it's kinda low damage, his sprint. i think you can unlock certain duo boons with his sprint. Hera is kinda only sprint boon that sucks. you can use it in the context of running around room spreading hitch but i find it safer to just attack rather than run around an arena with enemies everywhere. Haelian makes it work here as clear room boon but it's kinda eh.
Keep at it. You'll get better and soon you'll look back at Erebus and laugh at how easy it seems. It took me many tries to get past the first boss in H1 and the next level kicked my butt so hard. Now I can do a whole run and it feels easy.
@@suburbantimewaster9620this is normal for roguelikes/roguelites. Balatro, Ballionaire, Peglin, Enter the Gungeon. Die anywhere and you start from the beginning.
@@suburbantimewaster9620 It's frustrating at first, but you'll get there eventually. Make sure to upgrade the arcana cards, they are key to winning at first, and also try to learn the bosses attacks and how to dodge them. It's kinda hard, but once you get that first win, everything becomes easier. GL
I took a break for a while and came back to try the new update. I feel very overpowered now. Did they increase boon rate and boon power overall? Or did they condense 4 zones worth of boons into 3 zones?

@@fishermancy7719gotta go for that infinite scorch duo to really make ring shine as a main dps source. That plus hitch is ridiculous.
@@fishermancy7719 it works if you use highly flammable.
Seeing scorch as the top damage dealer at the end was so funny even if it’s just not showing the hitch damage
Mist veil is going off with incandescent aura makes me wonder if it works with the unseen arcana card
It does, but the damage is very weak. To make it viable, you’ll need a combination of damage multiplier boons or Air Quality.

22:49 That totem is always no get hit lol. The elites are from moon shaped totems, the reward being magick or path of stars
bloodline works with your dash ability. with this aspect BTW. The dash is counted as an omega ability. :)

I have big expectations for Extreme Measures, max fear looks so much easier than max heat
While Hades 1 dashes felt kind samey, most Hades 2 dashes feel like they shouldn't be core boons, at least for me

"build" idea: hera attack, every other slot filled with Zeus, trigger queens ransom and swap the attack for someone like aphro or apollo
Nexus sprint MAY be bad ‼️
i wish it had bigger AoE that expands as you sprint. Like Appolo's Super nova cast boon.
Ay bro when the update
I still haven’t gotten past the underground levels. I got past Erebus but, after dying in the next level, I had to start Erebus all over again.
Keep at it. You'll get better and soon you'll look back at Erebus and laugh at how easy it seems. It took me many tries to get past the first boss in H1 and the next level kicked my butt so hard. Now I can do a whole run and it feels easy.
@ Thanks. I’ll be honest I was surprised that dying in oceanic (?) made you start all over in Erebus.
