    I'm surprised no one calls out the Dora keepsake for good early options. It heals you to full health until you run out of the reserved health. Its the most GOAT'd keepsake to have while learning a new weapon or just the new mechanics of the game. I really think the key to successful runs is having a good sprint boon, cast boon, and attack/special boon (one or the other) Sprint and Cast are your defensive tools.

    I got Chronos after about 8-10h of total playtime on my 3rd try with him. The game feels challenging but the *right amount* of challenging. And for those who are struggling, the progression mechanics will eventually get you there; it'll just take a little longer!
    I am obsessed with the Silken Sash. Used Haephestus to stack up a ton of armor and the +100% damage to Casts outfit from Arachne. Then I got the upgrade to get a free 30 armor in every room (which is consumed FIRST when getting hit) so the +4 armor per room just stacks up underneath that 30 armor as long as you don't take too much damage. By the time I got to Chronos, I had so much armor and was doing so much damage thanks to my outfit + Hex (the one that drops the moon on enemies lol) that I absolutely clobbered Chronos. In hindsight though I'd go with Lunar Ray instead since it charges up so much faster and is less likely to miss against mobile bosses.
    In future I plan to use Moonbeam to upgrade my Hex as much as possible as early as possible, and try to get Arachne's outfit passed the first boss so I can swap to Silk Sash once I've already gained the benefits of Moonbeam.

      I finally got my first kill today, THANK YOU HEPHAESTUS! I was able to get to him consistently, but my runs just kept not being exactly what I was going for. Best thing you can hope for is the interaction in the House of Hades that reduces his backup. He doesn't have as much downtime as Hades did, but know when to back off. His tear in reality attack has a deceptive amount of range, as does his scythe boomerang. Honestly found phase 2 easier, but maybe that's just me.

    Note for Area 2, Hestia's Cast is amazing for the pinhead waves. Applies scorch and if you get the explosion for scorch stacks it just cleans rooms quick. Especially that random small room with a bajillion pinheads that spawn on DIRECTLY on top of your character model.

    Circe's keepsake is insane. I was using it at the start of all my high fear runs and about 70% of the time I would get Judgment as the Arcana card activated after beating Hecate so by the time I got to Tartarus I had 8 extra Arcana cards at my disposal. Those runs were ridiculous and so much fun.

    For the second area's boss, I would like to point out that I have seen the fish spam at the very end of the fight actually run out of spawns, as in once you kill them all, no more appear. So it is possible to kill them all. There is just so many it's not worth it unless your build just isn't able to deal with them and the boss at the same time.

  • @marcogini4219

    Moros keepsake is by far the best. Basically adds a 10 second invulnerability phase after you die before you really die, and then heals you for 60 if you survive. So suppose you are low on health and cannot find healing stuff, in a desperate situation you can let the last enemy kill you, heal for 60 and kill the enemy, and most importantly save your defy death for later.

Really sucked as if it did work, i would have most likely beaten the boss. It had less than 30-40% and i had an killer build going.

  • @reboot3332
    @reboot3332 7 місяців тому

    If you want to semi cheese 32 fear, take aspect of Momus, no health recovery maxed and no timer at all for fear settings, the rest you can play around with but I would suggest only one increase in enemy speed. Make sure you have the Arcana card that regens magic every second as well. Then get either Poseidon or Aphrodite on the special (you can keep dying off until you get an epic for more boost) with its keepsake. With Aphrodite shoot for her and Poseidon's Duo boon to really make the run easy. Lastly you have to get one of the hammers that increases special attack, preferably the one that lets you shoot 2 projectiles, but the other two work as well just not as strong. If you get all that, you can take your time in every room and when you get to less than 50% hp, keep shooting your omega special into a wall to regain your health when there are no enemies around. You can do the same in the Chronos fight by running away and just shooting a wall if you are low on health. You should have no problem taking down 32 fear this way.

    @Konrow 7 місяців тому

    Upgrading number 2 first or early is bad advice imo unless you are really struggling health + dodging wise. As you get good at the game and unlock more cards/approach grasp limit that becomes way less useful to your overall power and survival. Especially because stacking power isn't as easy and plentiful as the last game was but healing is way more so. It is arguably better than faster sprint so not the worst 1 cost card, but sprint probably feels better for more. Idk, those motes are better used elsewhere and not the easiest to get.

In Hades 1 I was out by the 27th attempt, in Hades 2 it's been 58 nights and I haven't been able to kill Chronos once and I swear I am not that bad.

      You might just need to get used to the different play style and mechanics. Use your cast and omega moves more often. Don’t forget to upgrade your alter too, 30 more health and mana makes big difference. And find boons and weapons that fit your play style.

  • @temtempo13
    @temtempo13 7 місяців тому

    I'd be careful about overvaluing the Knucklebones. It can be good, but the 15% damage reduction is rarely going to be anywhere near as good as the Luckier Tooth's extra death defiance.
    Knucklebones scales with your max HP -- in order for it to give you as much extra HP as the Luckier Tooth's extra 101, you would need to take 572 damage during the fight! And that's before considering that Death Defiance saves you from "overflow" damage -- if you're at 2 HP when you take a 30 HP hit, that's like it granting you an extra 28 HP on top of the 101.
    The question then is how much Knucklebones making the Guardian lose 15% of their HP is worth: my gut feeling is that all the guardians get more dangerous as they lose HP, so that 15% is only shortening the easiest part of the fight. Still useful to speed things up, but take it as you will.
    Although I realize now I've never brought it into the final fight -- does it make the final boss lose 15% more HP when he enters his second phase, or does it only trigger when the fight starts?

    • @nintendork9207
      @nintendork9207 7 місяців тому +1

      From my experience with how these effects work, it should only proc at the start of the first phase.
      I definitely agree that leaning on Knucklebones is probably unwise, I generally only ever recommend using it on a boss you generally have some bad history with, earlier the better. I think second section of descent is a good sweet spot for it(mileage may vary), partly since after the first area, your build should be coming together fairly well. At least in my own experience, being able to get past that second boss fight that little bit quicker is a huge boon to making runs go just that much smoother.

If you get something that charges your magick, you can keep going invincible, attacking, run away, use magic, repeat. That or the one that gives +25 health. If you can get 6, 7 uses, then it can help beat bosses, especially the last 2 in the underworld. As for the boss that gives you the golden apple (wouldnt want to spoil anything) id try getting the one that makes you invincible.
