UPDATE: Early Access Patch 2 brought balance changed and reworks to the weapons and their aspects!

[johnmanapol]

it would be a shame if they didn't put Aspect of Asterios in the Axe

[dissolvedpeafowl]

80% of the folks who hate the torches don't realize that you're expected to use the specials most of the time. The two other aspects change how the attack works and makes it worth a damn, but for default/Melinoe aspect, you gotta spin to win.

[Figsbar]

One thing that works great with the umbral flames is poseidon's spirit bubble boon. Since that seems to be the only way to recover magic while channeling.

So if you're accurate and/or lucky, you can spend entire fights just channeling the attack and dashing to avoid attacks (which doesn't break the channeling) this works especially well with aspect of eos since the dashes bring the projectile back too. With a good attack boon it's pretty good consistent damage which you can do at decent range

[GoatSays]

Aspect of Persephone seems bugged at the moment. The extra omega special duration is really inconsistent and it's either not working as intended or the tooltip is just wrong.

[tommyherrick]

So far, I have beaten Chronos with the torches and the skull, but my favorite out of all of them is the axe

[sober]

Sister blades are kinda broken
Omega attack hits so insanley hard
And if you get One of couple strong Hammer upgrades (backstab damage or Omega attack damage )
Its not oneshoting bosses but ive hit 1500 hits with it

[amadeus]

Aspect of Moros for the torches is absolutely busted, you just need to stack the primary attack o top of the enemies and charge after with the seccondary charged, it can be difficult at the start but I love and I'm having a blast with it, who would have thought that the ranged weapon for the game would be maximized taking risks and going melee.

[MsWilliYUM]

I would really rate the wands. The aspect of Moros if timed well is insane. I have beat chronos and Eris with the wand. They are my preferred weapon.

[Cxlli]

Yesterday I clear my first surface run and the blades are my current favorite. Got 2 hammers to increase the damage for regular attack and I was doing 600-900 when charging my attack. Sometimes even 1, 800 so that made me beat Eris the first time I fought her. Unsure if there’s some high damage dealing builds

[PhrazeMuzik]

Aspect of medea is completely broken with the right boons. Zeus and hera, blitz and lightning. I killed chronos without using any cheat deaths.

[lifereturned]

I'm loving the axe so far; but, I haven't unlocked the skull or aspects yet so it will probably change over time.

[dredayvon]

Sister blades and Momus staff are hands down the best so far. Skulls are definitely a close 3rd with base aspect.

Really love how they opened up the combat with these weapons and new mechanics

[russ]

I have all the weapons but the incantation for weapon aspects doesn’t show up

[lmaobruh]

anyone know how to get wool for the aspect of pan? ive seen busted builds with aspect of pan and i havent been able to stumble upon wool.

[DakonsMadhouse]

So I have all 5 weapons unlocked but I never got the incantation you describe and I can't seem to unlock the aspects. Do you know if you have to use all the weapons also before you get the incantation?

[helfire]

I don't like hestia, I think she is really undertuned right now. The only boon that hestia has that's better then what other gods can give you is her ranged cast boon which has more range then zeus'. Her DoT dmg is really weak and basically worthless on any enemy with armor. On bosses they have so much health I'd rather have more dmg or survivability instead of a small tick of dmg. I really hope they bring her around to the strength of dionysis because her boons seem fun but do too little.
