    What is insane is while, YES, dan did get some lucky pulls... Each time he was going for a boon he was (mostly) making an educated guess for where the best boons for that offering could be. the amount of skill and game knowledge to actually be able to USE the lucky pulls is bonkers! You sir are a maniac. well fucking done.

    This, ladies and gentlemen is how we the blind played hades before the accessible mods were created. However, screen readers and OCR, (Optical character recognition) were used to choose boons and buy items from wells. This is very, very impressive. Congrats for beating hades blindfolded!

    45:55 It's funny. I normally would agree with Haelian that the Arty dash is stupid. However, with how much he dash strikes during this run, it may actually have made a big difference to his dps. He genuinely makes better use of it while blindfolded than I normally would playing normally.

    • @squiddler7731
      @squiddler7731 Рік тому +86

      And that's not even accounting for the fact that he unknowingly picked up a chaos boon to boost his dash strike damage even further. Actually optimal

      @@l.n.3372 I think it's because other dashes, in comparison, are not so weapon- and playstyle-dependent and can impress with large damage (e.g. Poseidon) or status effects (e.g. Aphrodite, Demeter) independently. Also Artemis dash (and many Artemis boons in general) scales badly if you level it up. However, maybe the crits are able to make up for the smaller increases in percentages in comparison to other gods.
