Hera's MP restoration boon is better than I initially expected it to be, as long as you take a few Max MP rewards along the way, as your total effective MP scales exponentially with max MP. I worked out the formula for your effective MP for any particular encounter, where M is your max MP and p is the amount primed each time you restore it, is: (M^2 + Mp) / 2p. So going into the fight with Chronos, starting with 144 max MP and priming 8 each time you refill your mana, gives you an ideal effective total MP of 1368. (It's not actually 1368 because you aren't likely to completely empty your mp before refilling, causing you to waste the leftover MP.) If you had picked up one more +30 max MP reward, your ideal effective total MP would've been 1979 instead!

When a boon says "Attacks" it means both normal attack and Omega Attack. Same for if it says "Specials", unless clearly stated otherwise. Hammers are the ones that are very specific and if they don't say Omega, they just affect normal attack or special. If somethings says "Strikes" it counts for all your attacks, specials, casts, and omegas. IE, if you get Aphrodite's Attack boon, it affects both your normal attack and omega attack in close range to an enemy. If you get Hephaestus' Martial Art infusion, it affects both the normal and omega variants of Attack and Special, but not Casts. If you get Zeus' deal flat lightning damage with every strike but prime magick boon, then all attacks, specials, and casts apply it so long as they cause direct damage. (Hestia cast won't apply it, but Demeter will.)

Imo if you spend a decent bit of magic courtesy of either hestia or hera magic regen boons the hexes are always really fun and usually end up being my #2 or #3 source of damage. Since most hexes allow you to become invulnerable in some capacity anyways its either "heal for health, or kill enemies quicker so you don't take damage" for me

Not a fan of Dark Side, being invincible for a few seconds is nice but I'd rather keep doing actual damage than make a fight longer.

I think Total Eclipse is my favorite for the increased damage taken for enemies in the target area that you can get in its path of stars.
@rickyrivera36236 ай бұрын
I think moon water is better since it’s most consistent benfit regardless of build. You can slot it in to most builds and get good value even if you don’t get a path of stars where as others need a lot more investment to be good. Usually if you have good magic regen and a decent magic pool magic shouldn’t be an issue but even then a lot of hexes can be very dependent on upgrades which is a problem since you could just like not get the upgrades you need making it a waste of space

I wonder if Aphro worked badly due to not being close enough to trigger the damage bonus. You have to be pretty close to the enemy if her mana gain boon is any indication of what the game deems "close". I'm thinking if you want a %dmg boost something like hestia or demeter would probably be good. Maybe even apollo. I'm guessing the crit chance from the arcana card is pulling a lot of weight here which is why the base special damage is so much higher than the posidon damage. That said, I tried this build and you are right, you need to be tanky as hell lol. I didn't get very far with it and got pretty bad hammer RNG.

Can't tell if it's a me issue or a game issue but I'm really struggling with getting proper combos out of this game so far. I often finish the first stage with only one attack/special/cast boon and I find that with the addition of Omega moves my builds just use a very small section of the kit of each weapon. Generally I think the weapons in Hades were better designed to make use of the (fewer) abilities they had, and I think the boons in the origional game were much better to build around. Lots of useless/low impact/passive boons in this version at the moment. Hoping they really overhaul the boons in subsequent updates.

From your videos it looks like the weapon aspects also add some needed focus. Pushing on through and trusting in Supergiant but I still do think that by the 10th hour the game should be beginning to piece itself together a little more obviously. I feel like newcomers who haven’t beaten the first game would be struggling to enjoy the grind. I knew what I signed up for with early access though! Enjoying your quality content and appreciate your insights in the comments as ever :)

All those op starter picks and still doesn't come out nearly as good as moonstone axe throw

I have mixed feelings about the torches ... the concept and design of the weapon are awesome but the special is so annoying to use (long channel time + long recovery time between channels)

Worst weapon

Is it me or does the boons seem more boring and less fun then the first game seems like it really hard to get op and that was a major part of y the first one was soo good also the hammer boons don’t seem to completely change the weapon play of style like it used too

i like them more in this game because you can get consistently good builds using everyone instead of clicking anything with your 1-2 keywords

I've had more fun with Aphro build than the first game in this one, especially with sickle and knife. If you can get the backstab upgrades from hammers, that shit melts anything that gets close. Combine with a demeter freeze cast and the growing cast ring from Apollo shits nuts.

The weapons in this are absolutely AWFUL so far. With the exception of the twin blades. And why TF is every enemy armored from the start?
@JamesRoss-ro8fj6 ай бұрын
Not to be that guy but you are watching a video with proof they aren't armoured from the start 1:37 incase you were wondering what im on about.

They're pretty good, you're probably just not used to them or don't understand where they excel, and are picking boons that don't pair well with them. I didn't like the flames until just recently, what's annoying about them is the attack is actually useless, but the special is powerful. and don't really get how to use the skull well

how do you get boons list in-game? what triggers it appearance
@GoatSays6 ай бұрын
Wondering the same thing
@Haelian6 ай бұрын
Sorry I'm not sure what the exact trigger was for it to appear but it was an incantation that appeared at the cauldron eventually. Took a while.
@mrkone74916 ай бұрын
Have you by any chance gifted nectar to every possible god that gives you boons? If so I think that may trigger it to pop up as once I was able to gift hera and hermes (the last two gods i needed to gift) it showed up at the cauldron for me. Hope this helps!
