Cavalcadence plays Hades 17 - Duo Digger, Twin Fists, Aspect 4 (Hidden)
0Hades (PC(W,M)/Steam) (Supergiant Games)
Duo Digger (4 or more Duo Boons)
Twin Fists (Malphon), Aspect 4 (Hidden Aspect)
So, after completing "Pride of Olympus", I thought it might be fun to try for "Duo Digger" next... so I worked out a Duo strat I liked (see below), and the next time Darker Thirst landed on the Spear, I decided to give it a try... and Zag actually managed to win with 6 Duos, which I was pretty happy about! =) Unfortunately, I hadn't noticed that Zag was going into the run on a 9-streak... so he ended up with only a 50% chance of getting "Duo Digger"... and as you can probably guess, the game randomly chose "Decathlete" instead. =p
Anyway... Darker Thirst landed on the Fists next... and given how the Spear run went, I was pretty sure I could manage to get 4 Duos with the Fists, so... I gave it a try. And things actually went a bit more smoothly this time... Zag once again ended up with 6 Duos... and this time, actually got the "Duo Digger" win message! =)
So, anyway, here it is... my first ever "Duo Digger" win! Hope you enjoy!
Some quick notes on the Duo strat I used:
- After looking through all of the Duos and the conditions for each, I eventually decided to focus on the following 4 Olympians:
- Artemis: Cast (or Attack/Special)
- Poseidon: Attack, Special, Call
- Aphrodite: Attack, Special, Dash
- Zeus: Attack, Special, Dash, Call
- Getting one of the above-listed boons for each Olympian would make it possible to get any of the 6 possible Duos. =)
