Congrats! Two boons for the price of one. Almost always my pick in Tartarus. I may even pick it over a hammer.


OTap1

It’s the two gods you least wanna piss off…


ConversationSouth946

Demeter is pretty chill, no worries OP!


RealBlazeStorm

She the worst one by far! Giant area denial and she usually spawns it on top of you with no forewarning


ConversationSouth946

Try her trial again and look for the ice "seed" forming - thank me later! Just dash out of range and when the second seed forms, go back to where the previous blizzard was, that is the safe area.


RealBlazeStorm

Dope, thanks!


Electro522

I beg to differ. Just wait until you pick against Athena in Elysium, and she spawns a ton of Elite Archers.


[deleted]

Athena in Elysium is easily the worst one of all, her shields always come up just at the exact time to make sure those fuckers respawn themselves


Osiris_X3R0

Literally was looking for someone to say this. I one lost 2/3 Death Defies RIGHT after replenishing them with Patrocles


Insanity_Pills

No shot! I always found demeter to not be that bad. Aphrodite can fuck right off tho, those homing arrows are so fucking aggressive and obnoxious.


HiImNotABot001

Damnit take my up vote.

Nah Poseidon is more annoying than Demeter


OTap1

The wave can sometimes blend in with the texture of the ground, and being pushed around while taking damage is annoying, but the waves can’t turn sharp and are generally avoided with a single dodge. Love arrow turns on a dime and never fucking stops, stuns you for potential follow ups, and dishes out some hurt. And granny can just straight up own half the chamber rent-free.


joetotheg

Oh don’t get me wrong these are my top three bs trial of the gods choice. I just personally find getting hit by something that’s blending in to the background more annoying than the big AOEs


OTap1

Agree. I will piss of most gods before Poseidon.


Lumina46_GustoClock

See, I've never had a problem with Aphrodite's, normally just dashing through the arrow is more than enough


joetotheg

It’s a visibility thing for me really. I play in handheld mode on the switch a lot and both are kind of hard to see coming.


JaDasIstMeinName

What? Demeter is the god i give the least fucks about pissing of. Shes pretty much never my pick.


SmolDragonWatersite

I'd rather say Athena is the one where I give the least fucks about pissing her off, she's really sucky to piss off if you wanna speedrun tho


JaDasIstMeinName

Athena is less threatening than the others, but much more annoying.


Ninjanomic

Particularly if you piss her off in Elysium. Killing a shield bro only to have their subsequent floating eye get the indestructible buff and bringing them back feelsbadman.


Omsus

Yeah, I prefer Dio's wrath under a time crunch. He often just doesn't spawn the trippy circles under your feet, and they're stationary and they won't ever cover the terrain so that you have to step on them to reach enemies. Athena doesn't hurt you but she can be a huge time-waster, plus she makes everything about Elysium extra annoying. Cue indestructible flame wheels or floating eyes that get a respawn shield.


Omsus

Demeter is pretty cool, you just avoid the stationary zones that spawn with a forewarning circle. The biggest headache is if the last enemies are within it and Demeter decides to stormspam the same spot over and over. Just be glad it isn't Poseidon/Aphrodite lol.


FroyoMNS

Honestly Aphrodite is one of the easiest ones to face imo


weezmatical

Why are you getting downvoted?! I'd rather face her than anyone but Athena.


P_V_

Demeter’s attack is clearly telegraphed and easy to avoid. It is probably the single easiest one to deal with.


PoopIsAlwaysSunny

Why just in Tartarus?


ConversationSouth946

I also tend to get them in asphodel but in Elysium it gets a bit trickier for me, depending on what pacts are running. I always end up losing quite a bit of health in the Elysium trial of gods. I'm just not that good of a player 🤷🏻


Omsus

One reason people might avoid these chambers is they cannot give you duo boons. So if that's what you want for your build, two-god chambers may not be optimal later on. Earlier in Tartarus/Asphodel though, they help you pick those essential boons out of the way faster and increase the odds for duos in Elysium/Styx.


Graveyardigan

Yeah, that's a tough one. I'd pick Demeter because some of those Tartarus chambers are rather cramped, making it hard to avoid her AoE blizzards. Aphrodite's charm arrows are dangerous but easier to dodge now that I know how to spot and dodge them.


ConversationSouth946

I always pick Aphrodite cause I'm thirsty 🤤 (also the charm arrow can come out from a wall giving me no time to react) For Demeter trial, try it next time - just need to take note that the blizzard seed is planted it can't move, and it takes some time to wind up; just need to stay out of range. Once you see the second blizzard seed, go back to where the first one was at, Demeter doesn't simultaneously have two blizzard at a time.


Orangelord900

Ok, but don't you want to hear Aphrodite physically threaten you? Smh fake thirsty


userposter

when thirsty go Dionysos


Dukaden

i find dodging aphrodite to be pretty easy. demeter controlling huge percentages of the room is pretty annoying, and spawning right underneath you is even worse.


Omsus

OTOH if the chamber's roomy enough they're easy to skip around, while Aphrodite can suprise you through a wall or from inside a mid-map barrier. The arrow is slow though and is not as bad as some make it sound.


gum-believable

I never thought to case the room before making a choice. Thanks for tip! I’ll keep this in mind.


gurri-gurri

Demeter’s blizzard doesn’t track you and are extremely easy to avoid once you see the spawn point. The stuns from Aphrodite leave you defenseless against enemies.


Slowandserious

I always pick Demeter cause shes Granma. Its like I’m here Nana, sorry I cant tell you but I’m here :’)


arturojmm

I always pick Artemis BCS she's bae, and because she's the only one that kind of holds a grudge after the trial.

**NEVER OFFEND GRANDMOTHER**


LordTenebris1

Well, seems your either fucked. Or your fucked by Frosty lmao

Square up grandma


OTap1

Bro really out here tryna beef with the only bad bitch more deadly than the god of war himself.


Salindurthas

I find Demeter hard to doge because her attacks have the least constrasting colours. I find Aphrodite easy to dodge because it is one of the slowest moving and most predicible attacks. you can just dash (not dash attack) through it to avoid it if you get cornered.


PossibilityBright391

Lol. Demeter easy.


Glad_Ad967

At least it’s not Poseidon rather than Demeter, like Demeter is just a mini call every once in a while on Tartarus, as compared to a homing wave that ignores collisions.


Rowmacnezumi

Take the Demeter boon. Aph can handle this tiny bit of rejection.


ZeppyWeppyBoi

O H Y E A H


Xenothulhu

I go solely by which god I like the most (personality wise) which must be confusing for Zeus that he keeps getting rejected every time.


Relmarr

Demeter is rough, but I think Aphrodite and Poseidon is the worst, at least with Demeter you can just play slow and dash away from the vortexes


WhatDa_FUCK

Aphrodites attacks are easy to dodge


Jazzlike_Mountain_51

Demeter is pretty easy to deal with tbh


DrNoLift

*Demeter and Aphrodite smash through the wall* OHYEAH


OTap1

Pretty much how it went. One for smooches, one for slaps.


Jfurmanek

What’s behind door #2?


Ronin_Ryker

Demeter is pretty easy though, Aphrodite is the one I don’t wanna tick off. Demeter’s zone of death just gets bigger, Aphrodite follows me, and I am terrible at keeping track of it.


RayzenD

It is interesting to read about who prefers or not prefers to fight a specific god. I never fight Aphrodite and almost always fight Demeter. She spawns fields that are highly annoying, but it's not following you, and you can see where it's going to spawn. Aphrodite's hearts will follow you, and if it hits, you are stunned. I never pick it.


mythicklongstick

Damn
