Flurry jab with spear feels OP

[Nameless]

Yet not nearly OP enough as I'm still dying in world 3.

Someone said bow with flurry is even more OP. I feel like I must have missed the bow somewhere. Is it a secret weapon?

I'm pretty sure the bow is one of the first, and cheapest weapon...

Some of the bow upgrades won't work with each other, so make sure you pick the right ones to get the Flurry Shot https://hades.fandom.com/wiki/Heart-Seeking_Bow#Upgrades. And yeah, it is quite powerful, especially if you have Zagreus aspect (on the Bow), but once you start turning up the heat it won't feel OP, trust me ;)

Yes and especially if you get the AoE triple spears.

But its still no gaurantee of success. If its just triple hit, you can still end up doing miniscule damage, you still need to get buffs and upgrade them. SImply hitting 3 times instead of 1 doesnt really change much.

In that case, its better to use the special attack, since the comeback is a guaranteed backstab and you can get pretty powerful boons to support it. Even better if you get a Chaos boon that enhances backstab damage. And that really helpful for the final boss.

I think if you can get Flurry Jab with Triple Thrust and Zeus Attack, it can be very nice for room clearing.

Or if Bow, if you can get Flurry Shot with the Triple Shot in early Elysium, that can help.

Although the Shields and Big Chariots are still troublesome at times.

Even with Flurry Jab the damage output feels on the lower side compared to some of the other weapons (Rail, Fists, and Aspect of Rama for the bow being some of the first I'd point to for high-damage possibilities). I think this is in large part due to spear builds using Flurry Jabs typically being one-trick ponies- it's tough to work in effective use of the special and dash while using Flurry Jab, at least within the context of getting synergies between the different boons to really boost overall damage.

flurry jab and extended jab allow you to basically keep any enemy in the game (aside from bosses) away from you and allow you to do extremely safe damage. this combo imo feels the most dirty to use as you basically get turned into a ranged character that can deal constant hitstun.

Poseidon’s pushback boon is OP with flurry jab, you just keep smashing everything against the wall killing them easily.

I tend to favor Serrated Point over Flurry Jab, granted, the latter is really nice with the aspects of Zagreus and Achilles. The former, however, makes any aspect of Varatha OP, even as it reduces your dash range.
