Hades II

Hades II

weapons need a rework....
all weapons except dagger and the witchstaff feel too slow, clunky and weak.
over 5k damage with the dagger in one single strike is a little bit weird.
hades 1 the weapons felt much better.

The only weapon I dislike are the maracas. The skull feels like the same idea, but better executed. The maracas feel awkward to even fire cause its based on movement input, not right stick/mouse aiming.

The axe is probably my favorite moveset between both games. Like looking back, the shield just has a single melee strike if you stand still and spam. It just felt fun to dash strike spam constantly with dodge.

The skull feels super bad for some reason, slow, no damage, limited ammunition.
The maraca one is just as bad.

Give me back the spear from H1, that was awesome to use. The base weapon in H2 is clearly a reskin of the spear, but clunky.

Axe is decent when you have the 2 mana per second aurora card, and the attack spin is a lot better than the special shield. Main problem is you can cancel the spin animation with a dash and you end up taking damage a lot of the times.

Agree on the maracas. Without talking about damage or dps, it doesn't feel satisfying. Attacks is really boring to play around and the special is way too clunky to be usefull. I didn't have a deep dive into their upgrades but the one I took didn't change my mind on this weapon.

Battlestaff is good. Dagger have a really good attacks. His special is really "meh". Axe is quite good but have the highter skills cap. It really reward patient players.

I didn't unlock the skull yet.

The Argent Skull is incredible and quite OP. Sounds like you don't know what you're doing.

Yeh aslong as you maintain mana the skulls shred.... Can get abit painful if not.

Yeah people complaining have no idea what they are talking about. I've taken all weapons to chronos.

Maracas has some potential with some of the hammers. It's just not quite there. I think the special could have the stun attacks have.

Best I could do was split attack with the auto mana recharge for prime boon that I don't remember who it's from. Didn't get a second hammer for better attack but it actually had some decent damage.

It wasn't anywhere near Argent Skull double omega special. That's very good.

Haven't tried out basically any of the weapon aspects though. Need lots more materials.

There's a lot of potential. Just needs some time to cook. Both for players to find stuff and for devs to modify stuff.

Use the skulls in melee, so you can immediately pick them back up and fire again. The special of it is also really nice to get distance if needed.

I like it with poseidon special for knockback, but also the aspect lets you pop your cast as if you spent mana on the omega cast. So it frees up time/mana usage on using omega cast if you just use the special on it.

So get a boon that lets you use Cast from range, then omega special it. Feels good.

5000k + in one single charged Special... Can you top that with that Skull? The Skull is in Terms of Game clear Speed one of the worst weapons ive ever Seen in any roguelite Game

I have very near beat Chronus with the wands, it was like 20% on his second health bar, but I just lost focus, due to how much visual clutter they can create and the fights in general clutter. Also nearly beat Eris with them, but she decide to go stand in fire patches(and not take any damage)twice, while sniping me with a 100% damage buff, that was fun.
