am i crazy or is this boss fucking impossible? every time i have some crazy run going on i just get fucking destroyed
>>737990520Lure Scylla/guitar off to a corner somewhere, then run over and murder the drums. Repeat when they respawn, gg.
>>737990520yeah i always felt this one was pretty free, if i have a really shitty build maybe it could be rough
>>737990520>he doesn't know
>>737990520Take out the drummer first, she never moves so goes down quick if you focus on her, and that removes the area of attack stuff in the fight
>>737990520Oh, she gets much worse.
Attack the drummer first(she's stationary so she's really susceptible to endlessly spamming charge attacks and any DoT like hestia's in that general direction, but has the most annoying attacks) and it becomes easy mode. Half the time the guitarist and scylla herself end up kiting themselves at the far end of the arena so you can just wail on her without any worry.>>737991593Same strategy here just take out the tentacles that's near the drummer in the process, with how big your charge attacks are you'll end up hitting both the drummer and charybdis anyways anyways.What's really worse is Prometheus in his powered up form.
>>737990520I think she's really easy, i have problems with Prometheus
>>737990520If you’re having trouble, just castmax and stay moving. Also aspect of Artemis absolutely melts the drums even without a boon The main risk is panic dodging if Roxy’s the featured artist, or staying too close and having Scylla camp the drums
>>737990520yeah she's really hard, it's an early difficulty spike though the rest of the game is much easier in comparison
>>737993303The biggest pain in the balls is unrivalled Cerberus.He’s incredibly fucking annoying if you’ve got a melee focused build
>>737994192I remember the only time I fought him was with the jetpack/coat/whatever it was called and abusing shield i-frames to get around any attacks.
>>737990520I always focus on the drummer first, then the guitar player, and finally Scylla. Those drum attacks can be the most annoying things to avoid.
Gib Scylla gf
>>737990520COME, OH SAILORHEAR MY MUSICECHOING THROUGH SEA AND COVE
>>737990520DOWN DOWNKING OF BONES WITH A CORAL CROWN
>>737990520Hades 2 requires mastery over having a broken boon loadout. Strategy-wise, you should take out the drums first, then lure away the guitar and kill her, then Scylla. Everything else is just learning the attacks and tells so you can dodge them in time.
the amount of time i spent in pause on this fight is mortifying
I AM GONNA CLAW OUT YOUR EYES
>>737994815>YOUR SWEET LOVE POTION, I JUST CAN’T RESIST
I wanna smooch melinoe
>>737995024We know, Scylla
>>737990520Serves as the first proper skill check boss like Theseus did in the first game. It's a sudden jump in difficulty, but once you get used to the fight it's pretty easy to clear it with near perfect consistency. The boss right after that is also way easier imo
>>737990520Stupid sexy Scylla
>>737995916Imo Elysium is more a boon check than a skill check.It’s a gigantic pain in the dick if you can’t efficiently kill most of the enemies, with Theseus likely finishing you off if you don’t get a lucky encounter with Patroclus
>>738000579I like that they end up having hot lesbian sex.
>>738000579I hate that they end up having hot lesbian sex.
>>737990520I liked Hades but didn't keep playing after clearing it once. Should I buy the sequel?
>>737990520You are crazy for playing this wokeflop
>>738000579lol
>>738000756beat Hades 1 at least 10 times before buying the sequel
>>738000756The mechanics are overall better, but it suffers the same issue of punishing the player for being too good. It really expects you to finish the main story around the 40-50 run mark, and you won’t have the resources to fully unlock your build until 25-30, let alone upgrade it.
>>738001060Forgot to add that you can realistically clear the underworld before run 10 if you’re used to the mechanics, and the second the surface is available you can clear that too. Granted some of the changes from 1-2 might be different enough to keep you busy for a bit longer.
I'm bad at the game for exclusively using Charon's Axe and starting Apollo gain, right? Or is there an even more braindead weapon/build combo I could do?
>>738001305Aspect of Circe is stupidly broken too, though you do need a bit of investment.If you can get air quality with prominence flare and demeter’s gusts added to the cast it will melt anything.
>>738001305Sister Blades with the Poseidon attack ability that inflicts water damage and knocks enemies back
>>738000579Eris needs anal correction
>>738001967Mel needs BBC correction
>>737994981AND DROWN YOU TO DEATH
>>737990520It's basically a boss to tell the player to stop dashing wildly and face fucking everything in the hopes of killing it before it kills you. >Phases of pure invincibility >Multiple enemies to keep track of, all with very predictable/simple attacks but ones that can easily catch you off guard if you're running blind>Relatively slow boss, but one that gets dangerous if they all start to swarm you in one spot>Pillars in the room prevent tons of attacks, but require you to keep your positioning in mind to utilize them for more dangerous moments>Tons of attacks that punish you for staying close to bosses too longIf you pace yourself, watch where you're dashing/running, and even back off for a bit to help create some space between them, the fight is easy. But if you try to blitz them, they'll swarm you super quick and take a chunk out of you.
>>738001967>>738002072I can do both
After an entire game of well-balanced encounters, the ascended bosses in this game are total fucking bullshit. Why's it gotta be bullshit?
>>737990520>kite Scylla>get charged from offscreen with a hitbox that extends a mile in front of the animationIt's just not very well designed.
>>738002610you're supposed to have unlocked everything and be OP at that point
sexo
>>738002837Would
>>738002072Mel is for Scylla only
>>738002610Only Cerberus is bullshit imo, and that’s more because of how stupidly punishing he is to certain builds while barely being more difficult to others.Typhon is an absolute bastard compared to his usual form, but that’s more because his normal boss fight is so relatively easy once you stop eating his heavy hits.That said, I suppose rival Scylla can be a handful if you haven’t consolidated your build yet, since the tentacles need to be buried down quickly
>>737990520she's weak to anal
>>738002837Sex with dorks
I have Hades 2 so much. It's an excellent sequel in my mind.
>>738003521>>738003870What!
Sex with Artemis
>>738005168those are some thick legs on Melly
Scylla should have been the second female love interest. Based retard>>>>obnoxious retard
>>738005574>Artemis>SexI have bad news, anon.
>>738006640>greeks not being able to bypass that particular issue
>>738006640>what is rape
>>738007252Baby don’t hurt me
>>737994848>Hades 2 requires mastery over having a broken boon loadout.So they missed the point.
>>738008631I don’t really know what he’s talking about. You can break the game a lot harder and easier than in 1, but that’s more a consequence of more builds being available and viable per weapon.
>>738006640Anal doesn't count
>>738006538Yeah Scylla is the most likeable character in the game and it isn't even close
>>737990520Train your reaction a bit.
>>738009138I liked Odysseus when Mel starts breaking out of her shell a bit more, especially since he’s one of the ones that helps her do it.
Dream dives with Supay feel borderline impossible if you start on the 4th stratum.
>>738002837>nopanbased
What does Ambrosia taste like?
Shame the story is so shit.
>>738015364why is it shit
>>738015364>>738015742I’d say wasted opportunity rather than outright shit. They pretty clearly set out to explore the various ways the gods fucked over mortals balanced with the good they do overall, but apart from Arachne they just backed off when it came to concluding anything.
it's mostly just a retread of the first game about mending a feuding family but with timetravel thrown in
>>738002837so she just has her whole ass pussy out under there? damn
>>737990520How is this game and the first one when it comes to bosses hard countering certain builds?I like focusing on one thing and making it as op as possible.Been playing other roguelites like balatro and slay the spire and it feels so frustrating having an amazing run just because you got a boss that completely counters your loadout.
>>738017838neither Hades 1 nor 2 has that ultra-punishing counter style like Balatro where your entire run gets fucked by the one thing that beats your build (i haven't played Spire for comparison). In Hades, you are generally rewarded for funneling your upgrades into a focused build and those tend to be the most fun and OP runs
>>738017838Melee is generally harder, but there aren’t any genuine hard counters and each weapon has a ranged attack and an AoE option at a pinch
>>738018718>>738019280>neither Hades 1 nor 2 has that ultra-punishing counter style like Balatro where your entire run gets fucked by the one thing that beats your buildThank fucking god.Thanks bros.
