I don't think I've ever had a problem with the heads going so far into the lava that I couldn't hit them with the fists.

Every weapon has it's pros and cons and the bonus affects you get as you make the run can make any weapon feel OP or insanely week.

Fists are definitely one of the tougher ones to make good use of, but there are some blessings that will make you feel insanely powerful even with that. The hydra also may enter the lava temporarily but if you move off screen a bit, I have never been in a situation where I can't kill it because it stays on the lava forever.

I have no idea whether or not he's a racist, but apparently there are recordings of him using racial slurs so it's a distinct possibility.

I do think fists are one of my least favorites for the hydra, though I just did a run yesterday without any problem, the high damage rocks on the fists so it takes most things out faster then other weapons, just you need invulnerability/deflect on your dash or you get pounded.

I still like shield the best for the hydra, it's special just tears it up and the heads as well, wish dash/deflect you don't take damage either.

I really don't like the hydra fight with any of the weapons, even if it's not mega hard, it's annoying, and takes awhile. The lava though was not a problem for me in the recent fist fight (few heads went in, but there were others to take down while they were, and the last head wasn't (also main hydra head never went in the lava).

Advantage of the shield (with deflect with special) is you can deflect all the shots from the main head while just constantly pounding it with your special. You can dash/throw/dash thrown to take down the other heads when they spawn (without taking much if any damage) and your never in any of their pound ranges.

For the fists you have to dash in, attack, dash out before the head pounds etc. you do more damage faster (you can take out the outer heads so fast with the right upgrades) which is great is your super over powered and have buffed yourself a ton (or got really good upgrades etc). Early on, or without good upgrades, the shield just does the hydra so much better. It has great range, excellent defensiveness, and good damage. I like it better then spear/bow for sure as far as ranged attacks go.

Still think shield is the best defensive option honestly. Spear or fists are probably best offensive option.

Was gonna say, who the hell is trying to punch the Dark Souls Hydras??

The writing is awesome, however I think both Enter the Gungeon, Spelunky 1, and Slay the Spire are better roguelites.

That being said yeah Hades has the best script and voice acting that I've ever seen, maybe in any video game ever.
