@Haelian Год назад

Did I miss any hammers that you're curious about? Feel free to ask about them here!

@spectrum3460 Год назад

Double nova for the sword? I got a run on Arthur with it and Swift Flourish from Hermes, really fun to spam and delete shades.

@scroth0303 Год назад

I was surprised that you didn't mention Cursed Slash. I remember how I used to think that it was the best possible Hammer when I started playing Hades because I kept getting hit and needed the extra healing. But then I discovered that it's pretty much a trap upgrade when fighting Dad since it can't keep up with his damage output at all and does nothing to actually improve your own power.

@TheMightyHammer Год назад

I always thought Long Knuckle was pretty good for the fists, I think you forgot to mention it at least

@Wiily42 Год назад

massive spin on aspect of hades is always a go-to for me

@aryn6690 Год назад

What the one that makes your bow attack chain

@saltytyranitar6981 Год назад

Entirely by accident, I found out that the Special Launcher on the Fists actually works absurdly well with certain Demeter multi hit boons, especially Poseidon, where even Bosses get launched into a multi-hit wallbounce that can delete a third of their health at a time.

@E_D___ Год назад

sounds hilarious

@OatmealTheCrazy Год назад

I had a shield triple shot + extra bounce doom/hangover run that was fun as hell.

@eloelo6944 Год назад

It works well with everything because of how stylish it is

@TarnishedGoose 10 месяцев назад

@tjquincie1390 10 месяцев назад

Salt i did the same with merciful end at one point and it actually i think worked better because you can get away if need be

@vexation4668 Год назад

I’ve honestly seen a lot of success with flurry slash and piercing wave on the sword There’s something extremely entertaining about them, especially both of them working together

@GeoNix64 Год назад

Awesome that this is in short form at 10 mins long and not a 30 min slog. Great info, love the content.

@MsMacintosh 8 месяцев назад

I did once get a build with the power shot on the shield combined with the minotaur rush, which allowed me to get multiple hundreds of damage alone, and then I got Artemis's chance for crit and could get over 1500 damage a shot. It was awesome.

@noelbedard8252 8 месяцев назад

there are two builds that may be sub-optimal but that I love on aspect of Lucifer with the hammer that gives infinite ammo, one I call the super soaker, using poseidon on the attack to deal constant knockback and slam people into walls and the other is just a swarm of seeking arrows with artemis, fully decked out crit build. I like it because it hits so rapidly, making it good to pair with boons where you want to proc an effect more than you want to deal flat damage

@Haelian 8 месяцев назад

Having fun is the most important part anyway!

@fazul5674 3 месяца назад

There was this run I did with the sword that all that I had was cursed slash, slash flurry, support fire, curse of agony and dire misfortune. And only that was enough to beat the whole game with so much ease it was simply hilarious.

@Woodclaw Год назад

I know it's a very specific build, but combining Shield of Chaos, the extra ricochet hammer and the Ares special is one of my go-to minion swatters.

@papaCmahns Год назад

I love that you're getting the credit you deserve lately bud. Keep it up!

@rakantdarrath4264 Год назад

I'd actually love to see a run focusing on Lucifer, I suck so bad with that aspect and a quick run/guide would give me some more insight into how to actually use it. x.x

@guus497 Год назад

really like the vid, i love that its so objective to help people with all different kind of play styles

@MsMacintosh 8 месяцев назад

I was really hoping the tactical nuke for the rail could combo with the three round burst. I guess instead the Artemis crits could work at least.

@brunocalver2968 Год назад

Dude, love your vids, but you missed a mention of Long Knuckle for the fists, which is a good but not top hammer (one of my fav aspects) 👍

@Haelian Год назад

Kinda just falls in the middle of the road for hammers I think, not bad, not super interesting though. Therefore it got the DROP from the video.

@PladTheImpaler 9 месяцев назад

Interesting to see how other people play. Cursed Slash is the best sword hammer by a ridiculously huge margin, arguably the best hammer overall.

@QwixLF 4 месяца назад

Quake cutter on the Talos fist (barely upgraded the aspect) with Artemis on Special let me hit 700 on the landing hit with little investment as soon as Tartarus. It was the entire point of the build when I got it once, and it was hitting 1k+ by dad.

@BlackHand531 4 месяца назад

Double exploding shot and double code range were the first two ways I completed a run. I think I had aries special, dio's attack and aphro's call.

@AppleJackSix Год назад

Breaching cross is by far my most preferred boon. If I see it I always choose it. 900% damage to armor with piercing is close to not having armor at all.

@litapd311 Год назад

agreed if you play on high heat it's so good, there's no other way to deal so much damage to armor

@eminkilicaslan8945 2 месяца назад

One of my most broken runs, I had minotaur rush and charged shot on Aegis. It was basically Coronacht that deals 500% power shot damage on top of 80 base damage and also had a guard while being charged. 😂

@gumpf Год назад

Exploding Launcher with either Zeus or Poseidon on the special is divine (no pun intended)

@Randomyoutuber-4831 8 месяцев назад

6:51 I'd also like to mention that the same can be true of the rama bow since the special shots ricochet onto nearby foes by default and fires in a straight line. Making it just as good if not better thanks to shared suffering.

@Randomyoutuber-4831 8 месяцев назад

My favorite build with this was a Zeus build where I pretty much stacked every single boon onto Rama's special attack (thunder flourish, double strike, static discharge, splitting bolt, and cold fusion) along with relentless volley. I could literally fry everything that crossed my path including EM4 REDACTED, it was my first clear against him actually.

@RoboSparkle 7 месяцев назад

You missed the hammer that was a strong part in getting me my first 32 heat win (and making it WAY easier than I anticipated): Eternal Chamber + Zeus attack meant the drawback from losing the damage ramp up meant nothing since it didn't affect the stream of bolts that I could mindlessly fire infinitely without needing to pause to reload! Obviously very situational but easily the single biggest carry hammer I ever got!

@WreckinCrewe Год назад

Hazard Bomb is my favorite rail hammer, it makes the game so easy

@thefuzstache1139 Год назад

I was always wary of spread fire because I was in the habit of playing super passive with the rail. However, I slapped on spread fire recently for the list of prophecies, and it lead me to my fastest ever run. I just stacked it with a crap ton of percentage damage boosts and by the end I was completely melting everything in front of me.

@Darkhero32100 7 месяцев назад

My personal favorite's got to be exagryph faster shots + explosive shots. Really makes me feel like Im firing a heavy bolter from warhammer 40k

@Acefdiamonds 4 месяца назад

If you can get the speed hammer and minatour rush for the sheild it actually becomes kinda good

@anonymoususer188 Год назад

Twin shot and explosive shot may not be the worst individually, but one run when I was underwhelmed by the hammers I had (and knowing how I had just been unlucky and that there were a lot of powerful bow hammers), I used the anvil of fates in Styx. I got both explosive shot and twin shot which honestly have significant downsides when paired. Less range and slower charge neither of which I was used to using really messed me up. Also, in general the anvil feels like a trap. Sure, it replaces one hammer with two new ones, but that's a terrible deal considering it's random and just as if not more likely to give you duds or worse than actually useful hammers.

@KWCHope Год назад

My favorite upgrade is for the sword, specifically the one that makes it so that you heal off of every baasic attack while lowering your max HP, I found that it allows for you to play the game like it's a doom clone where you just run everyone down and heal off of your massacre, works best with the other upgrade that makes it so you only spam your first 2 attacks instead of throwing in the third thrusting attack

@magicmaddie8108 Год назад

Doesn't apply to dash-strikes so it kinda sucks

@MrVoid666 6 месяцев назад

Flurry jab and the x3 spear was what got me past past Elysium for the first time

@fish5541 10 месяцев назад

My first win was with a crazy hoarding slash run when i was super new to not only hades but the whole roguelike genre. I then didn't win for like a solid 30-40 more attenpts. So for beginners at least it's pretty good

@AnthonyMcNeil Год назад

Had no idea that you were locked out of certain hammers. Thanks for the info.

@Conimon 4 дня назад

I will never not love empowered blow. Mix that with with pulverizing blow, and the shield is bliss. If you hate empowered blow that much then explosive return is also ok

@teknoreaper9232 Год назад

my favorite was the one that made your dash attack deal damage 3x but shortened dash distance. SO much dmg, atleast for my very casual brain.

@deviles 7 месяцев назад

HAd a hoarding slash run once. Got it first, thought hey why not trying. Got Epic Side HustleAfterwards. Ended the run with nigh 3000gold. Along with some other Very high Attack Modifiers. Felt like threeshotting Hades XD

@xredxsixx4871 Год назад

I love running lucifer with eternal chamber and persidon such fun 😊

@bingalowkie8029 4 месяца назад

Ngl Minotaur rush is pretty good, getting the timing down isnt too easy but since I use the shield a lot it’s not a problem

@joshn2564 2 месяца назад

Anybody going to mention that 275 gold Anvil Charon offers sometimes right before the end? Huge RNG, but great early game when you need to fill in the prophecy by choosing all at least once than have a somewhat unique triple combination to end the game, but later runs it just ruins your chosen combo so guess that is why veterans just leave it alone and forget about it.

@michaelurmo7984 Год назад

I'll have you know that I was only able to be this game for the first time with flurry fire and seeking fire on adamant rail

@SYNNarutoFan999 Год назад

I love these guides

@Ringadon 4 месяца назад

Hard disagree on Dread Flight. It not only allows +4 chain but it massively speeds up the flight time of the throw. Combine it with going hard into Ares and it's practically easy mode.

@GeeYouEye Год назад

Does Hazard Bomb increase the time of flight, or decrease the special cooldown? Hades wiki doesn't say. Feels like a lower cooldown, but that might just be because you can have two in flight at once.

@CrazyDutch91 3 месяца назад

@UniGya Год назад

Honestly my biggest issue with Sniper Shot is how far you have to be to get the damage. If the enemy is above or below you the bonus damage range is literally off screen

@vdd1001 Год назад

And being far away from enemies is way way more difficult than being up close

@evanmcdonald9134 Год назад

My biggest issue with it is I feel like I can never charge a shot to power shot an enemy before they walk outside of the sniper range. Like even if I instantly start charging it, they will usually get closer before I can power shot

@Haelian Год назад

Yeah that's how I feel about it too. You pretty much never get the bonus damage because of course enemies always move toward ya.

Don't love it personally, downside is too much.

@yoavisrael2482 7 месяцев назад

@@Haelian wow that really surprises me it's one of my favorites but I guess in higher levels of the game after you finished it multiple times it's not worth it as much

@yoavisrael2482 7 месяцев назад

Do you have a video of what you should do after you defeated hades for the first time It's kinda confusing and I would love it if you can explain how everything works and what more I can do thank you for the response earlier it was nice talking to you

@Mr.0s Год назад

So you said you can only get 2 hammers each run? then why did l have literally today a run where l had 3 hammers offered to me? Or is it just insane luck if that happens?

@PSPDDH Год назад

Was the third hammer offered in world 4? If not, I believe it was a glitch

@pumbaa667 Год назад

You can have a hammer offered thrice (or any amount of time, in fact) but you can only grab two. But if there is an Anvil in the last shop before Hades you can buy it to scrap a random Hammer and get 2 new random ones.

@vdd1001 Год назад

Source: you made it up. The only way to get 3 hammers is if you get 2 and then use the anvil in styx. You can get the hammer offered more times (in the shop sometimes) but you'll only be able to get 2 no matter what

@Haelian Год назад

Well if you skipped an offer then it will be offered again until you have 2. Unless you're talking about the Anvil.

@sweatyman1234 4 месяца назад

got the god combo 2 days ago. melted literally everything. such a fun build

@peterprime2140 Год назад

Assuming you don't care about any current upgrades you have, are there any weapons that you consider "safe" to take the anvil? Obviously your boons factor into this but I'm still curious.

@Haelian Год назад

The scariest anvil is probably with the sword since Cursed Slash could be brutal if you're not prepared. I can't think of anything off the top of my head that would actively hurt you otherwise.

@StupidPoetry Год назад

I think there's a difference between entertaining hammers and actually useful ones. flying cutter is really fun to play but not very useful. In lower heat, though, it doesn't really make a difference, so goofy fun might be the way to go.

@grummdoesstuff2983 4 месяца назад

One thing you did miss is that you can actually get 3 hammers in a run. You need to have 2 by the time you reach the temple, and then Chirons shop has a chance to contain the Anvil of Hephaestus. If you buy it, it scraps one of your hammers and gives you two random ones. Obviously, this is a risky thing to do, since you have very little control over what you lose or gain, but, if you have two hammers that are bad or just okay, it can be worth it to try and roll for a significant power boost.

@diegocj02 Год назад

I think you missed serrated point on the spear. Combined with Artemis dash, it deals good damage. Sure, the dash distance takes some chambers to get used to, but it's not that bad

@magicmaddie8108 Год назад

Serrated point is good but it acts negatively with flurry jab

@Haelian Год назад

Eh just not my favorite. Big upside but the downside is just as big in my eyes.

@RyugaruSenbi Год назад

@@Haelian in my opinion it's one of the best Spear Hammers. Most of my really good spear runs really take of when I get it. But I also haven't really played with aspect of Zagreus or Achilles. Because I kinda hate the spear special with any aspect besides Guan Yu. It's manual retrieval mechanic breaks the flow of my prefered high speed dash strike playstyle, because I sometimes forget that I need to press Special again to get my weapon back. That's a problem pro Hades players wouldn't have but being casual-friendly has value. Sometimes the quality of an ability doesn't come from max potential but from low skill requirements. And serrated point lowers the spear's skill requirement for me by removing the need to rely on anything else. I don't have to bother with the spin attack anymore (I've mainly used aspect of hades so far). Spear is my least favorite weapon, serrated point makes it more fun.

@dargatan6301 Год назад

I'm gonna tack onto this that it's probably my favorite spear hammer, the damage output is just insane

@hash4badi Год назад

flurry jab is just so much better than serrated that I don't think serrated is notable at all. when you use dash strikes, you lose the invincibility of the regular dash for dodging attacks. this means you really need the dash mobility to not get hit. flurry jab gives at minimum the same dash strike frequency without the -25% dash penalty, and using flurry with serrated does not give you that many more attacks. this means that one of the attack buff hammers (extending or triple) is better as a second hammer as well

@climb9140 Год назад

It would be cool to have a "only hammer" run

@OatmealTheCrazy Год назад

That's called Binding of Isaac

@nicolasrusso9786 Год назад

Hazard bomb is still one of my favourites because I got my first win with it. Artemis's special + hazard bomb meant over 1500 damage crits that sometimes just cleared the entire room

@MsMacintosh 8 месяцев назад

The crits are really good, but What about Aphrodite's? It has a straight damage upgrade, so it's really consistent over the chance with critical. The Weak effect is also really handy.

@Gideon-ofnir 8 месяцев назад

@Syluxsify Год назад

Kind of interesting how you can't combine Aspect of Hades with Flurry Jab because it would make the Aspect useless, but you can combine Aspect of Hestia with Delta Chamber.

@Randomyoutuber-4831 8 месяцев назад

Well technically you can still reload with the delta chamber, it just won't do anything unless you're using the Aspect of hestia.

@markterrero5362 8 месяцев назад

I just started playing hades a couple days ago, and these videos are greatly expediting the pretty large learning curve, specifically with all of the ability choices.

@Ronin11111111 Год назад

During all the time I put into this game, fully charged Demeter+Explosive upper combo was the single most satisfying thing.

@tomrotem8551 Год назад

Have to say, I really improved I Hades because of you and your build ideas and seeing what you do. Great video

@shroomian2739 Год назад

Draining cutter has a special place in my heart because it carried me through a dashless run (not a huge achievement in the grand scheme of things, and one definitely more based in luck, choices, and math rather than actual skill, but I’m still proud of it.)

@SieNoel Год назад

I love this because it generally confirms my sentiments on most of 'em,(spear spins ewww) and learned a few things i didn't realize about the way some of this multiplies. super helpful! I have made the mistake of taking Delta Chamber on Hestia, waaaaste

Just got into this game maybe a couple months ago since binding of Issac was getting a bit stale after however many years, but mate your videos are a blessing, took me some time to get my first Hades down, hell took me ages to get my first Theseus kill too but you videos are mint, no frif fraf just hard info. Much love mate, and I'll for sure be watching your Hades 2 stuff.

@WesHope-k9q 9 месяцев назад

People are sleeping on Hazard Bomb big time. When the stars align with Artimis (Run Gods Pride in mirror) and the right chaos boon plus your running pierced butterfly… man. I’ve gotten it to ~3300 dmg per bomba 💣 on Hades. I walked through 16 heat in front of my buddy taking zero dmg Hermes’ dashin (he had yet to complete 16 heat) and he’s like “that doesn’t really count as beating 16, way to easy, broken ass build” lmao 🤣

@KillaCheeto56 Год назад

I remember when I first got Explosive Upper when I was using Demeter fists, greatest twin fists run I've ever done. Paired it with Artemis special and just ate enemy health bars. Kinetic Launcher along side Demeter fists and Arty special is also a build I grew to love.

@CeilingPanda Год назад

"No chance to roll hammers" -> anvil enjoyed riot? Just joking the anvil is barely good as a meme :P

@LunaTDB Год назад

I always skipped triple shot cause the spread pattern looks so useless. Good video, a lot of info in a short time. Can you make a video on what conditions chambers like shop/minibosses/boldy and co. can appear?

@cameronwielenga7765 Год назад

the spread is terrible, but being able to get 2-3 hits on an close enemy is very strong

@vdd1001 Год назад

Like the response above me said, unlike triple beam on lucifer, the 3 arrows can do 3x damage to an up close enemy. Point blank shot+triple shot+Artemis on the attack on rama (while applying the shared suffering of the special) is probably the highest single damage you can get out of 1 attack, maybe along Arthur with shadow slash and cluster rockets on eris. Try it out on bosses, you can make them phase to invisibility in 1 attack, specially if you have aphro on the special or dash and get heart rend

@Haelian Год назад

Hmm, there is info to share about chamber numbers essentially. Could be tough to make an entire video about it. Maybe an "Advanced Tips" kinda thing though.

@totallynotpaul6211 Год назад

Relentless Volley + Concentrated Volley with Chiron is how I got my first win. I got an epic Aphro special, then an epic Chaos special, add some chimera jerky in Styx, and I absolutely shredded Hades. Chiron special builds, and blade rift cast builds will always have a special place in my heart.

@dutlech425 Год назад

I saw this was uploaded 17 seconds ago which is cool that I loaded RU-vid at this exact time. Thank you for the video, Haelian! EDIT: After having watched the video now, this is great! The only thing I feel was missing is some of the changes for some aspects like Sudden Rush becoming quite a bit better with Beowulf Shield or the changes to Beowulf with charged shot.

@BFedie518 Год назад

I love ricochet on Hestia. Hitting multiple enemies with that massive damage on the first shot is insane.

@magicmaddie8108 Год назад

yeah it's the best attack hammer for her

@descendency Год назад

I started playing this game because I found it recommended by RU-vid (Haelian's videos) and I ultimately beat 32 heat because of his recommendations (and then promptly retired... 🤣). If you are just picking this game up now, I would recommend trying these suggestions because it will make the early part easier to learn.

@NagKai_G Год назад

I recently did a laser-focused run with the aspect of Lucifer for fun (objective being having as many lasers as possible, including ice beams), and found out that trible beam + Poseidon attack boon + his wall damage boons absolutely destroyed any enemy that was even remotely close to a wall. the boss damage may not have been too good, but damn was it fun to demolish Styx with that

@niyalune Год назад

That's probably an unpopular opinion but as a casual player I like to take Spread Fire with Hestia if I don't get offered the best hammers. It provides some melee damage if I don't have time to reload or if I get swarmed by enemies.

cursed slash is fun af

@thalgrond Год назад

If you're lucky enough while playing Aspect of Charon to get both Concentrated Volley and Relentless Volley, you're peachy. Get Demeter on your special if you can, and just breeze through the rest of the run. Full Chill in two button presses, and well over a thousand damage. I've beaten Extreme Measures 4 quite a few times, but it's never easy - not unless I have that specific combination of hammers. Then it's a cakewalk. The other hammer combination I find really useful against him is actually Concentrated Knuckle and Rolling Knuckle, for pretty much the same reason. It lets me do a hell of a lot of damage while loading him up with Chill, and extends the hit sequence while making each hit do more damage than the previous one. That combination - "each hit in a combo does more than the previous one" along with "your combo is longer" - is the basis for some truly broken builds.

@youareobscure Год назад

rolling knuckle is pretty good, you can ignore the sequence and just dash strike for max dps. It gave me my second win with Zeus and Poseidon boons. Concentrated knuckle is pretty good too if you can sit through the full attack sequence. Long knuckle is also pretty convenient even though the bonus damage is negligible, the range helps with multiple enemies. Flurry slash is nice with support fire and cursed slash is great with flurry slash but terrible in every other situation. World splitter seemed like the worst sword hammer to me, the damage is nice but the area of effect goes away and it feels slower.

@bipstymcbipste5641 8 месяцев назад

If you can combine world splitter with high crit chance, it actually destroys. The down side is just the attack being a little awkward to use

i did once make a silly little build with nemesis sword that mostly relied on flurry slash + cursed slash hammers cursed makes you heal on hit but greately reduce max HP, meanwhile flurry slash lets you hold left click to keep doing the first hit great source of healing and you still have damage options (maybe spin, definitely cast) also charged shot is absolutely busted, you can literally become a turret which absolutely demolishes lower heat levels

@mungolockhart3875 8 месяцев назад

While flurry fire and seeking fire definitely are not sought after or first picks, they do work really well with things like zeus or dio on attack if you play more defensively or braindead. Auto aim and faster shooting enables some hit and run tactics or makes them more effective. Dio rail honestly feels like free wins.

@bartomiej4361 9 месяцев назад

I'm still running on low heat, so maybe it doesn't scale well, but I found that Shield + Dread Flight + Ares on special works great (especially with Impending Doom). It lets you clear out whole room from a safe distance and without much aiming, or hit enemies behind obstacles by ricocheting against the wall (like those satyrs or laser crystals in Styx or Hades during beam attack).

Honestly, Breaching Cross while using Aspect of Gilgamesh is straight up broken given how many dashes you get. It's one of my favorite combos to run. That and something more specific; either Aspect of Rama or Chiron with Relentless Volley was fun, specially if you get the Poseidon's Special, Rupture, and combine it with Zeus Boons for the Duo. That breaks runs, just takes time and lots of upgrades Edit: wrote Poseidon wrong

@Mantelar 2 месяца назад

Blizzard should just hire this team to fix Diablo IV. Hades is definitely the best Diablo game currently out there. Hate me for saying this, and even getting the genre wrong. It’s true. Could you imagine D4 built around movement the way this one is?

@Malacite 5 месяцев назад

Personally I'm a big fan of Cursed Slash on Stygius (Zag). The max health penalty hurts sure, but can be offset with the right boons - I've had a few very lucky runs where I got purple Life Affirmation right away followed up by Bronze Skin & Positive Outlook. Granted Hades will still hit you a bit too hard especially on higher heat, but the life on hit is extremely forgiving lower difficulties and good for helping newer players I think who don't know all the boss patterns yet. I just wish it had been full on lifesteal instead, but clearly the devs were scares of that. I don't think 2 HP per swing - even with a maxed Swift Attack & Zag aspect for 55% speed - justifies the massive HP loss.

Vicious works super well on a achellis run as you are gonna be using your special a lot so having a fucking 50% crit rate along with Aphrodite on special and if you can get heart rend it’s a nice second source of damage And hazard bomb with Aphrodite on special and Artemis and you have a fucking nuke the best I got was hazard bomb Aphrodite on special Artemis on cast Dionysus on dash and Athena on attack as this build wasn’t planned my second hammer was targeting system which is the best hammer to have with it as I makes you have to lead enemies in less and with splitting headache and heart rend this build on crit would do well over 1k damage and because you would be surprise how often just stand still biggest one being hades after is spin attack and during his laser so you could hit this pretty often even on the final boss

Hmm, I really like explosive return on the shield, take any special damage boosting boon, focus your poms on this boon and keep spamming that special. It's how I get most wins, but after seeing this video, I wonder if it's the best option.

maybe its because im new to the game and my most played roguelite is RoR2, but idk man the only 2 wins i have in this game is with cursed slash, sure the health decrease sucks but like, if ur good at dodging attacks and such its basically just an easy way to heal back when u fuck up. someone else here said it cant outheal dad so its more of a trap, but like if u dont facetank everything and actually try to dodge his attacks, it seems to me to pretty much carry the way i see it, it changes the lose condition from messing up 4 times in the entire fight, to messing up 2 times but only right after each other. if u play ur cards right, the few stray hits u do take from missed timings can be really easily negated by playing it safe

I remember once screwing my entire run by trying the anvil that removes one and gives 2 bonuses, literally made the build nearly unplayable, I promptly lost against Hades lol, since then I'm very cautious.
