Favorite weapon archetype (taking into account all aspects)?






Here's a mini series I'm running since I'm on a Hades binge (well, was, but I still play it on-and-off).

First off, what's your favorite weapon type, overall?

I think I gotta go with Bow here. Both Chiron and Hera are great fun to use and Rama isn't bad either. Sword is a close second but I don't really care for the crit aspect and the basic Zagreus aspect is kinda fun once fully upgraded but rather basic. Shield is always reliable but kinda feels slow at times. Spear is fun enough but I almost never use the spin attack...

On the flipside, I do the worst with Malphon and Exagryph.

Bow > Sword > Shield > Spear > Fists > Gun

Real close between Fist and Bow. Fist is what I was using most by the end I think, while I liked Bow more early on.

Shield. Zeus and Beowulf are too good.

Taking account all aspects is a bit weird because for example I think Bow has the best balanced aspects overall but I still get more enjoyment out of shield even though I dont care for two of the aspects. It's pretty close though.

The fists are a blast, ended up being my most used weapon and the only one I cleared more than a handful of times. I mostly used the aspect that adds a vortex to your special so I could just tear through entire rooms.

I liked the sword too, but the hidden aspect kind of soured me on it because it feels way too powerful. The other weapons range from fine to Exagryph. That's probably just because I only use keyboard but I need to stack hammer upgrades on the gun to get anything out of it. I didn't use the Shield/Bow/Spear a whole lot but they were fine.

Fists > Sword > Shield > Bow > Spear > Gun

Bow is the best since basically all 4 aspects are pretty damn good.

Fists or Sword are probably the most fun, though.

I'm glad I'm not the only one not really getting the railgun. I mean, I understand the appeal in theory but the combat loop felt awkward to me.

Anytime I have to get in melee range it's a bad time

Shield would have been higher if the Chaos aspect didn't get nerfed (fourth at least. Maybe third.) Fists and Bow are close. Chiron and Hera are my two favorite aspects, but I don't use the other two much, and I love all four of the fist aspects.

The shields used to fan out in every direction and bounce more. It was really overpowered, but it always felt like the fun kind of overpowered to me.
