aspect of lucifer + tidal dash + triple bomb goes crazy ngl

I use spear🗿

you got to talk about beowulf then

I personally wnjoy the shield of Chaos something about bull charging and shotgunning enemies just feels fun to me Wish it delt more attack on special

Nah I'm kind of fists of malphon guy, i use the aspect of talos and brute force my way out of there.

What? Using the shield as a shield?

Yep my first few times actually beating daddy was with aspect of Zeus, as much lightning as I could get with artimis providing crits and, hmm can't remember, wanna say Dio cast, yea pretty sure Dio cast with Zeus combo boon. Very powerful

the pussy gameplay

Oh fuck you. Revolver is the best motherfucking weapon in cs2

Wrong GUAN YU BABEYYY 🍴🍴🍴🍴🌊🌊🌊

I still think shield is boring and I never play it. Fists & Rail 24/7

Personally I like the railgun - cause I can just spam the attack and dodge button at the same time and deal tones of damage. The grenade launcher rlly helps out with bosses, specifically the Bone Hydra and Theseus in my eyes.

I’ve o ly been playing for about 2 weeks and I think the the Charon bow is the best IMO. The Guan Yu spear is the worst for me lol.

The gun is overpowered as fuck too

Man I gotta stop watching Hades shorts while I got stuff to do I get the Hades itch soooo bad

This was the first weapon that i unlocked and i didn’t even know it was meta, i guess i got lucky 😅

Its also important that its a constant multi hit, and the hits are doubled when using zeus special, meaning it shreds through rooms where armored enemies keep giving each other blue hearts, something a weapon is basically required to do at high heat, and it does this while being able to move, attack and/or block

I'm sorry, but the aspect of zeus might be one of my most hated weapons, aspect of Chaos works way better for me

How do you unlock routine for inspection i dint have it

I prefer Aspect of chaos bcs of high dps

I didn't even know that shield blocks damage

I am your 200th sub bro!

I just always use exagryph because the bombs are fun+good daedalus hammers

aspect of talos thooo u kidding meee

… you can BLOCK????

Bro I would but it's actually so hard for me to control where I throw the shield and I'm slow af with it💀 better watch a tutorial at this point..

I know it aint optimal, but i just use exagryph cause 1. Gun, and 2. Hazard bomb give big number

Fun fact you can press c then it will follow your cursor

ZUUUUUUUUEEEEEES

Plus since physical attacks destroy projectiles, you have a second shield for free that can move independently of you. Was my fav shield and still is to this day

I love how any weapon/aspect in this game can be fun and viable. I rarely see people talk about the bow which has always been my favorite. Recently hopped on the chiron aspect, get dionysis, demeter or artemis on special and get concentrated volley. That shit SLAPS

Zeus shield isnt the best weapon in the game, it just requires the least amount of boons from gods / hammers to actually be good enough to kill hades at anything above 60 heat, hope this helps.

The aspect of Zeus is also one of the few reasons that 64 heat was possible

Just have to yoose it to know that. And then permorm with it. It's a real genocide of monsters.

any gauntlet users here? i got a fun build for you if you are!

I like the spear

Pro players also use Hera, Beowulf, Eris, and others situationally. Though Zeus is the only one that can touch max Heat. Beowulf and Eris are best for reliable speed-runnibg. I have sub-10 min with 3 aspects and 40 Heat with Beowulf, but i also have multiple 32 heat runs, and multiple 20 Heat Perfect Clears (no damage vs final boss) with Zeus

Nemesis sword is the only way

To be entirely honest, even if you COULDN'T attack while the Zeus shield was on the move, it would be pretty strong. At max level it deals 30 base damage per hit, and it attacks pretty quickly and with a decent AoE. Even without a boon that's enough damage to kill most enemies in Tartarus (meaning the beginning of your run will probably be pretty easy even if you get hella unlucky), and when paired with a Zeus special boon + some secondary boons (Zeus has some really good secondary boons) it deals tons of damage.

then it GOES FURTHER.. if you pick Ares boons for attack and special You'd be able to CONSTANTLY apply doom by releasing your special then you attack(applying doom again) and defend back if needed. You can also go for a hammer and pick the one that makes your shield dash charge faster and you can basically keep zooming around applying doom to multiple enemies in a second.

Thats neat but i will never betray the heart seeking bow

Interesting! I find the shields kinda hard to play with- my go to shield is actually the aspect of Chaos and my go to weapon that I’ve done the highest heat runs with is the sword with the aspect of Arthur. I usually use Athena’s boon to deflect with attack (really good for the mages) and it’s always a good day when I can get an Artemis build

Agora a pergunta que falta. Para que serve esse pacto de calor?

It's not true that "no pro player uses other weapons". The Zeus shield is the best for very high heat runs but not for speedrunning.

Pro players? What the fuck are you talking about

I used it once in the beginning and then never did it again, gotta get on it tonight

I once had a duo boon ares and athena So basically apply vengeance with zeus shield's technique and activate it instantly with ur attack (duo boon) Eats life bars

The Aspect of Zeus is great I finally completed the 32 heat run thanks to it (and Ares' boons to be fair)

Years playing this game never knew it blocked damage
