When I first got to the Hades fight, I had the heroic level greatest reflex, maximum permanent dash, and the aegis shield. To make a long story short, I still go crushed because I'm a horrible gamer.
Demeter cast that shoots the beams is insane, drains health bars especially against lernie. Get a high damaging weapon paired with tidal dash or Athena dash and you're good
I beat hades with half my Health, no revive left, i was like: that was eas-, then Zagreus was like « get up father », then I said « no no no No please stay down daddy » I lost 😞
"There's no save point but the game's not too difficult in the end. The last boss is probably a bit easier for my taste, but that's probably so you don't lose your progress. Over all, I'll give the game a 10 out of 10... WTF? Why is he standing up?" -More or less my first reaction beating his first phase
Sameee I was legit had like 20 health left on my tenth run total and was like “oh that game was kinda hard but it wasn’t too bad” and then he got up and straight clapped me instantly 😩
Relying on this method can get rough when you start fighting hades at extreme measures 4 because he pushes you out if you try hug him; it is a good idea to get used to dodging his beams. But nevertheless great advise for new players :D
My first try beating Hades was super frustrating, I almost killed him in the first phase, being very upset that I died not knowing that it was just the first half of the boss fight hahaha
Same. If I would have choosen the shield instead of the damn sword because it had 25% more darkness I would have beaten him too. The shield is OP af if you ask me.
Thanks for the vid. I've beaten Hades a few times, but only once without God mode. Didn't realize Hades carried his momentum during his swing attack. And thanks for reminding me of the obvious "kill the enemies that overwhelm you" or "stay behind him for crits." Basic things like that kinda get thrown out of the window while I'm panicking
I just had a shield and revenge build with doom and i couldn't beat the second phase, there is just too much going on. Im kinda getting pissed because this is 10 times I've fought him with no win
you'll get there man! i never thought i would beat him even ONCE! but after rethinking my strategy and just learning the fight, i can beat him pretty consistently. before you know it, you'll be beating him left and right with all the weapons!
For the crazy 360 fire laser attack, instead of hiding behind a pillar, you could stay right beside him when he launches the attack. You won’t suffer any damage
Dont know if its a good strategy but the only time I can beat him is when I upgrade my attack to the crap house to make the fight shorter, because, when you tickle him and he takes half your bar with one attack, it makes the fight long, drawn out and I will eventually die
Yeah I feel that. If the fight keeps on going I just get way to risky with it and tanking his damage isn't something you really should do, the thing is that before getting to him it's so easy but than he starts regaining all his health and i'm fucked...
Wtf…..I had no idea that shield blocked 100% damage. Never really used the block because every game I’ve played that has a shield always does a percentage decrease in damage with possibly 100% decrease only on a perfectly timed parry (on single hit attacks) but NEVER 100% block when you can just hold it up infinitely. Didn’t even think to test it because I just assumed lmao. Well shield it is from now on xD. Does this work for all attacks (melee, poison, aoe, etc.) or only casting?
It works for everything, as long as you're facing (obviously) the direction the attack is coming from. If you get hit in the back, shield is not gonna help much
Same, shield it is before I beat him once. I just need to beat him ONCE. Than I can finaly start leveling up the bow or the spear or something I think it abit more fun than the shield eventhough it seems to be OP.
Thank you! It took me a few tries to simply stop panicking lol and then i dashed to far out or the screen was filled with effects and i couldn't concentrate on his behaviour So seeing the attacks one after another was very helpful!
I just beat him on first attempt. I hid in corner with shield and got the boon that shoots a piercing shot instead of bullrush.. I don't think I'll ever beat him without cheesing him lol cuz I still almost lost
I remember the first time i got to him and he hit me with the spin attack and just took like half of my health off. I was like oh okay. He killed me in the second stage because i had no death defiances left lol. Styx was rough the first time.
The problem I’m having is NON SHIELD RUNS and Demeter and her chill Rarely shows up. She is the last god that I’ve yet to give more then 1 forty to since she’s rude
I got to Hades my 11th try, I think that's good. I beat his first phase and died 1/2 way through the second one because I had no idea what his attacks were.
@Cole May He said he's only done 20 attempts... The only useful advice to him so early in the game is to just keep trying different things until his darkness is built up a bit and he's collected a bunch of keys. He CERTAINLY doesn't have aspect of Poseidon unlocked after just 20 runs.
bro what how I'm at 20 attempted escapes i roll through the first 3 bosses and end up at hades with 1 more death defiance or 2 sometimes and still cant beat him
I clearly suck at this game. After 25 runs tried God mode. Now at 45 runs and 40% God mode, still can't beat Hades. Without God mode i would have stopped playing weeks ago. Still don't have any idea how the boon combinations work and game doesn't explain them? How is your shield doing that extra damage? How can you upgrade it? So many questions watching your video.
Man.... I am currently struggling HARD to beat hades I finally beat him.... so I thought. And BAM there is a whole phase 2 I was using the Rails gun weapon. And I had THREE death defiance left His phase 2 took all 3 and ended me.... I do not believe in myself to make it to Hades with all 3 left while using the shield.... but if this video is proof enough, I'm going to try it I rly rly just wanna beat him
just watched this video and i melted hades with 2 dd left, 3 years have passed and its still helpful :'D btw are u from nw london? ur accent sounds sooo familiar
I'm set to throw that game in a furnace! I saw that power drop... I got all happy. FOR 4. F'N. SECONDS. I'd be lying if I said I DIDN'T scream F RIGHT OFF in a pillow... I was Black out Furious! As I saw myself end up BACK at Ground zero... I swore to Never play that game again.
What make this boss extremelly hard is you don't have enough damage. Eventhough i have already beat Hades a few time with shit build. I still have trouble when he summoned damn mob. They are also super tanky.
Always great when u get to him with full health and 2 respawn a yet the game crashes and if u quit there it sends u back to the house instead of last save ducking stupid lost all my progress and material I got on that run
while i'm at the point where i can probably get to hades with anything without any extra heat, i keep fighting this trying to time dodges like it's fucking DARK SOULS STOP IT JAWA OH MY GOD IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT anyway, i'm still trying to find the line between doing good damage and actually having a call to fall back on so that i don't Die Instantly
I was fighting Hades around my 19th escape attempt (I already beat him for the first time on attempt 15) and I was coming off of a win streak of 2 with the spear and sword, then decided to use the fists, got to Hades with 4 death defiances and still choked… couldn’t even be proud of my 3 Hades kills so far or my back to back wins
Nice video, but can't get over the fact you sound like a roadman from white city
This shit made me crack up.
Hah lol
When I first got to the Hades fight, I had the heroic level greatest reflex, maximum permanent dash, and the aegis shield. To make a long story short, I still go crushed because I'm a horrible gamer.
💀 same
Which aspect on the shield
Demeter cast that shoots the beams is insane, drains health bars especially against lernie. Get a high damaging weapon paired with tidal dash or Athena dash and you're good
@@ishfish hes talking about his first time fighting hades. so he had the default aspect and no demeter available.
Aspect of Arthur and Poseidon dash is insane, helped me beat Hades 10 times
I beat hades with half my Health, no revive left, i was like: that was eas-, then Zagreus was like « get up father », then I said « no no no No please stay down daddy »
I lost 😞
Oof 😞

It be like that then when he get up get shitted on by his beams
please don't call him daddy please :')
that fucking spin attack man. even though I beat him twice, I still didn't know how to dodge it except with 3 dashes. thanks for the tips man
That isn't annoying it's the fucking green circle that's annoying
I think theres a trick where if you hug your dad during the fire attack you dont take damage from it.
Relying on this method can get rough when you start fighting hades at extreme measures 4 because he pushes you out if you try hug him; it is a good idea to get used to dodging his beams.
But nevertheless great advise for new players :D
How? Do you need to press a certain button? (Haven’t tested ‘cuz if you do need to press a certain button and I don’t know it’ll absolutely melt me)
@insertnamehere9718 no it's just distance. If you stand right next to him it won't hurt you.
There's no words that can describe how much appreciate, after almost 10 hours of torture I finally passes hades, thank you so so so much.
Thanks pal I didn’t know the shield can cancel his bean
Those damn beans
@@stephenallen3274 fuck them beams i played the game for 4 hours and got killed by em so pisssseedd
@@stephenallen3274 lmao i hate his beans they always get me
I’m still gettin hit by those beans but I’ve almost got all the achievements so it’s worth it
@@stephenallen3274 I just beat him boys
Having deflect on your dash is crucial
My first try beating Hades was super frustrating, I almost killed him in the first phase, being very upset that I died not knowing that it was just the first half of the boss fight hahaha

@@D2DOPAMINE I'm not that great with the shield but I see
I just beat him for the first time after watching this video with 1 DD left. Thanks
You must have been stoked!
Thanks for the vid. I've beaten Hades a few times, but only once without God mode. Didn't realize Hades carried his momentum during his swing attack. And thanks for reminding me of the obvious "kill the enemies that overwhelm you" or "stay behind him for crits." Basic things like that kinda get thrown out of the window while I'm panicking
You going over the move set is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I feel better now, thank you
I first got to him around level 12 or so...I can get to him consistently but my character never feels strong enough. 44th attempt.
I think using the shield is the ticket, I'm definitely going to try it with that next and just ignoring the 25% more darkness if it's not the shield.
Best advice from the whole video is using the freeking shield.. damn, I bet if I did that I would have beaten him a long ass time ago. Thanks,mate.
I just had a shield and revenge build with doom and i couldn't beat the second phase, there is just too much going on. Im kinda getting pissed because this is 10 times I've fought him with no win
Sounds like you just might be bad, beat him second try with shield
you'll get there man! i never thought i would beat him even ONCE! but after rethinking my strategy and just learning the fight, i can beat him pretty consistently. before you know it, you'll be beating him left and right with all the weapons!
@@thinlizzy9032 it took me turning on godmode and about 35%, thanks for the support!
@@rymaxrules6416 Sound's like you might be bad, I beat him first try with shield, noob.
@@MerkinMuffly beat him second try with the shield but then got back to back wins with the spear and sword soon after

Hermes boon to give you extra dashes + Athena boon to give you deflect on your dash = take a lot less damage during combat
You cracked me up with the beam going through the rock being bullshit - that's definitely wack lmao, thank you for the video my dude!
Thank you! It took me a few tries to simply stop panicking lol and then i dashed to far out or the screen was filled with effects and i couldn't concentrate on his behaviour
So seeing the attacks one after another was very helpful!
Solid advise and tips
On my 43th run now and I just discovered god mode and have yet to defeat Hades. I'm on a brink
You can also run into the Fire beams, and attack Hades within the center
I just beat him on first attempt. I hid in corner with shield and got the boon that shoots a piercing shot instead of bullrush.. I don't think I'll ever beat him without cheesing him lol cuz I still almost lost
Practice makes perfect :D
@@itsay1163 yessir bout to give it a go
if it works, it works lol
This was helpful! I like that you gave us fight tips instead of just specific build wank and all’at
Really great video man! 👍🏻 loved your vibe and the explanations were very helpful 👍🏻
I remember the first time i got to him and he hit me with the spin attack and just took like half of my health off. I was like oh okay. He killed me in the second stage because i had no death defiances left lol. Styx was rough the first time.
Thanks man just completed my first run!
I hadn't even realized about the stones! Thank you so much. ^_^
Thanks, man. First time playing in Infernal Mode and I did beat Hades using the spear
Ty
The dash having I-frames is really useful
Great video, man!
The problem I’m having is NON SHIELD RUNS
and Demeter and her chill Rarely shows up.
She is the last god that I’ve yet to give more then 1 forty to since she’s rude
3:30 wait so you cannot dodge inside the attack's range with perfect timing? Ithought you were able to do that since dashing has invulnerability.
This is exactly the video I needed. Thanks.
I got to Hades my 11th try, I think that's good. I beat his first phase and died 1/2 way through the second one because I had no idea what his attacks were.
This guide made me laugh my ass off. Cheers mate, subbed.
I’ve done about 20 attempts and haven’t got to Hades ….
@Cole May He said he's only done 20 attempts... The only useful advice to him so early in the game is to just keep trying different things until his darkness is built up a bit and he's collected a bunch of keys. He CERTAINLY doesn't have aspect of Poseidon unlocked after just 20 runs.
thanks dude. I had a really hard time fighting theseus yet I managed to beat hades on my first encounter with him. what an amazing game
HOW
bro what how I'm at 20 attempted escapes i roll through the first 3 bosses and end up at hades with 1 more death defiance or 2 sometimes and still cant beat him
This is a very well made video. Keep up the good work.
I clearly suck at this game. After 25 runs tried God mode. Now at 45 runs and 40% God mode, still can't beat Hades. Without God mode i would have stopped playing weeks ago.

Man....
I am currently struggling HARD to beat hades
I finally beat him.... so I thought. And BAM there is a whole phase 2
I was using the Rails gun weapon. And I had THREE death defiance left
His phase 2 took all 3 and ended me....
I do not believe in myself to make it to Hades with all 3 left while using the shield.... but if this video is proof enough, I'm going to try it
I rly rly just wanna beat him
I keep getting him to a quarter of health then dying
Do you mind me asking what EM is please dude? Thanks for the great guide
EM means extreme measures
EM, that stands for erotic mama. It‘s used to describe a hot milf.
@@Jangofat1 i prefer ur definition
just watched this video and i melted hades with 2 dd left, 3 years have passed and its still helpful :'D btw are u from nw london? ur accent sounds sooo familiar
The shield might be the best weapon objectively…but I can’t say no to beating gods with a literal fucking gun
I always get caught out by his skullthrow during second phase. No idea how to stop this
Dodge
I'm set to throw that game in a furnace! I saw that power drop... I got all happy. FOR 4. F'N. SECONDS. I'd be lying if I said I DIDN'T scream F RIGHT OFF in a pillow... I was Black out Furious! As I saw myself end up BACK at Ground zero... I swore to Never play that game again.

I almost beat him with the fists but only had one back up life out of two
I really like that you swear :) it's a mild form of how I sound while I play this bastard
while i'm at the point where i can probably get to hades with anything without any extra heat, i keep fighting this trying to time dodges like it's fucking DARK SOULS
STOP IT JAWA OH MY GOD IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT
anyway, i'm still trying to find the line between doing good damage and actually having a call to fall back on so that i don't Die Instantly
Thank you! Finally beat him!!
I easily defeated him on my first try, but now he's giving me a hard time.
Just start playing this game on infernal mode, everytime Hades beats me. Got tired that I had to watch a video about beating him.
After 6 minutes I believe he means: git guud
Forgot that I can block with a shield:*) thAnk you
No mention of phase two wtf
When i get the shield i always beat him
good vid - thanks man
one tip i have: turn off the music
Years later easiest:
Default shield
Ares special
Throw and run
Ik this sounds weird but it feels nice hearing a TH-camr swear, like no one does it nowadays idk 😭
thanks for the fucking tips
I was fighting Hades around my 19th escape attempt (I already beat him for the first time on attempt 15) and I was coming off of a win streak of 2 with the spear and sword, then decided to use the fists, got to Hades with 4 death defiances and still choked… couldn’t even be proud of my 3 Hades kills so far or my back to back wins
DUDE I STUCK HERERERRREDHIWHFI
Thanks bro
Good vid cheers
i killed hades on my 3rd try.i ddint kill him again xD
Nice video
You can tell how young he is by the way he curses.
nice bro
Hades is easy Theseus is the real shit
Theseus is irritating but easy as hell. The only trouble I have ever had with him is when he calls Demeter.
Good
