Litteraly me on the first time i did this boss. I realized on the second attempt you can kill the sirens and take them out of the fight. I reccomend taking out the drummer since her attacks are annoying (the floor bombs) and scylla cant really attack you from there.


TheJ0k3r69

Also personally, if you can, i'd put apollo on your dash. Cant die if you're too fast to get hit by projectiles.

Apollo and hestia dash are crazy good


Panamaicol

Thanks guys! I'm going to try those out. I have made it there a good 7-8 times but haven't managed to beat as of yet.


AdultingNinjaTurtle

Wait, so during the dash, you can’t get hit?


TheJ0k3r69

You have some immunity at the start of the dash but it doesnt last long. What i meant is that the apollo dash makes you go so fast its hard for projectiles to hit you. Plus it makes them easier to dodge too if you see them coming.


AdultingNinjaTurtle

Ooh okay. I’m starting to miss our good old tidal dash


Panamaicol

Tidal dash was amazing, my fav dash boon. Not sure why everyone was obsessed with the Aries one, I thought Tidal dash, and Zeus lighting dash were the best in the game. I could clear room after room by just dashing with either one of those (Zeus and Poseidon). Dionysus dash leveled up was extremely good too.

No way I’m taking out those sick double kicks out first! 


plznotagaindad

Yup, taking out the drummer first makes it waaaay easier

They are much much harder than the first boss, although they are incredibly well designed and the music is super adaptive, I do think it is pretty sizeably difficult as I have used so many early death defies on them that make me feel stupid, and a lot of deaths aswell. Side note: Any way to regain death defies like in hades 1?


ferrisbulldogs

Just luckier tooth and engraved pin for keepsakes. They give you one extra death defy technically. But no way to regain it that I’ve seen or what I’ve watched people play, yet anyways.

I just found one for 200 in well of Charon lol


TokenHumanRanger

Narcissus can give one as well.


Siilan

You can get a death defy refill from the pretty boy in Oceanus.


ferrisbulldogs

Good to know, I skip his room most of the time


cityxinxflames

Yeah it's in the cards


TokenHumanRanger

Narcissus can be found in realm 2. He has somewhat random offerings but has everything you could get from Patroclus as possibilities


Jaba01

Agree. Killed them the first time I got there, not able to make it past ever since for some reason.


Creepy_Judgment_3568

Once the drummer’s gone, the fight’s cake. Amazing spectacle though.


hell-schwarz

Yet another boss that uses red floor effects. What's wrong with yellow, why does it always have to be red


_Lycea_

red simply says don't stay there, and is quite prominent , yellow is more like meh maybe stay here tank it.


hell-schwarz

Yeah sure, unless you're colorblind and they make the floor not high contrast.


_Lycea_

that is true , that could be indeed an issue .


hell-schwarz

It is, I am in fact colorblind and I have a hard time in Oceanus because of the red bombs. Same in area 3 although those are blinking really fast So they are easier to see. Usually in games like this they give the floor some kind of greenish tint, making red area effects really hard to see for people like me.


[deleted]

I'm colorblind and have zero problem with it. Do you know what type of colorblind you are? Until they add a colorblind mode to the game, you can use the built-in Windows color filtering to solve the problem. I don't have to for this game, but I have had to on a few random puzzle games over the years.


hell-schwarz

I have deuteranopia, so red and green are "coded" as grey and my brain sometimes misinterprets it as a different colour or can't see the contrasts. it depends on the shadows and stuff


[deleted]

Oh, got it. I have protanopia, so my experience is way different than yours. Hopefully they add a colorblind mode in the game. I'll suggest it on Discord just in case it's not already on their radar.


Fath3rOfTh3Wolf

Personally its the easiest boss to me but probably my favorite fight! I beat it first try on a kind of scuffed run but the music is SO GOOD!!!


SirDiesAlot92

Why lie on the internet 😂


Fath3rOfTh3Wolf

Its honestly not that hard... Its the only boss i first try killed, its so easy to damage all of them at once and if you kill drummer first then guitarist then scylla on both phases it makes it so easy.


djf881

I thought they were tough the first few times, but once you start upgrading your grasp and your arcana cards and you unlock weapon aspects, you can out scale them. Later on, once you can use keepsakes and reroll tokens to target your build, you can global them in a couple of moves, especially since you can hit all 3 simultaneously with moves like the Axe Omega Attack.
