I personally prefer Phalanx build over Mirage build for Poseidon. I'm not sure exactly why, it just feels right to me. Exit Wounds is pretty much a must-have for this Aspect, and it is a component of Fully Loaded so I always try to go for it. If I fail to get the legendary then at least I still have Exit Wounds.

I think if you're playing casually (i.e. not comparing yourself to other people / competing for speedrun/heat records), using Give Up to "restart" a run is a very nice tactic to use when starting out, fishing for clear messages, or meeting personal heat/speed goals. It's helpful to know exactly what you're starting with (could just "give up" in first chamber), which makes it easier to start with keepsakes like Mom Pom or Coin Purse instead of a god's, plus it gives you unlimited tries on a seed with a really good start (e.g. an Epic Boon even with RI 1 and AP2 on for high heat).

HIghest dmg cast builds are from Demeter and Ares but they require lots and lots of boons.Demeter one has beam with high tracking and long duration while ares follows foes and alos has long duration...Basically you cast it and dodge bosses while they lose HP at rapid pace.

You can get duos from god trials. Its just much harder than normal. The trial boons jave a reduced rarity than any other normal boons, meaning you're more likely to get commons than higher rarities, which is affecting the duo chance. You'd need legacy on and something like a refreshing nectar or yarn of ariadne to upgrade the rarity and still probably won't get it. This is just a psa that you can get duos from trials, I have before, just don't spend your rolls as it'll be much harder to actually get the boon than a normal chamber. Also go for boss boons for the highest rarity, rooms that aren't god trials that have the skull on them or the 450 obols boon in styx.

No you can't, it's hardcoded and we've seen the code. 💀Also, miniboss rooms have a slightly reduced chance of giving duo boons for complicated reasons.

Doesn't get affected by Lasting Consequences. Could be useful but it goes back to what I said during this video that I'd still rather get something that prevents being put into that position. At very high heat, Tight Deadline is always a problem so trying to turtle out a run isn't really viable.

You can use keepsakes to get more than 4 gods in the pool, anyone you have already taken a boon from becomes part of the pool. Purging boons does not remove the god from the pool.

Exit Wounds is good but IME (and this is borne out by this video) most enemies are dying too fast for you to take advantage of it. It's free damage if you're spending your time hitting special but you could just as well be casting. The only time exit wounds really generates good extra damage is bosses.

Seems to me that Haelian never tries to get Fully Loaded, he always makes it out to be extremely hard to get in a run, but I’ve never really felt like that’s true.

@MaxHaydenChiz9 ай бұрын
I would think it's because going Arty for all of that is high rolling. Aphro feels like you need less luck. But maybe Hael will comment. I will say that one of my most fun runs ever was an absurdly lucky Pos sword run that had lightning phalanx, deadly reversal, mirage shot, fully loaded, and extra chaos cast. Also had d.edge and an epic RD b/c apparently game wanted me to win more. Basically perfect collection of boons, *but* IIRC, there was literally 0 boons to spare at the end of the run. Had a single boon not been offered when it was or had I had a bit worse door luck, then the package wouldn't have come together. So probably the odds of seeing all of this are very low. I don't know enough about how the chamber rewards get rolled to calculate it, and I'm too lazy to read c_gull's guide and figure it out for a YT post. But if you say that you need 10 things with a 25% chance to happen, then you are talking something like a 0.00009% chance. If it's only 8 things and a 50% chance, you are still talking about a 0.4% chance. I'd be curious to hear from Hael what he thinks a more reasonable ballpark is b/c these seem a bit *too* rare. But even trying for a run with a 2% chance to come together is not going to be fun.
