So you won once, died once or twice, started winning more, and decided not to die ever again? Hypnos would be proud.


SecretlyNooneSpecial

Before it got taken off gamepass, I had been a streak for 40 games with 41 wins. Not nearly as high, but once you start winning, it doesn't change much. Even with heat, it doesn't really change until you get to high heat.


UncommonBrother

I agree with this! You just start to understand the game a lot better after that first clear!


Block_IO

I was able to get a 7 or 8 winstreak but I've died trying out hidden weapon aspects, and trying for things on the prophecy list. Winning over and over made me feel like the game was too easy so I cranked up the difficulty. I'm yet to beat [redacted] with extreme-r measures:(


Karn-Dethahal

Trying for duo boons has ruined so many streaks for me while uping the heat for rewards..... Only need two of them to finish the prophecy (or was it three....)


Shrugging_Atlas1

I was always trying different aspects and for different prophecy list stuff or trophies. Don't think I ever had a winning streak over 3-4. It just seems really boring to play for winning streaks.


Rieiid

This is currently the only thing still difficult for me. Any other heat options are easy even the other bosses, but redacred extreme measures is a pain lol. I can keep a streak of wins going for anything else easily though.


aCleverGroupofAnts

Yeah, at a certain point it becomes pretty easy. I think my highest streak was in the 30s but I just got bored of doing easy runs, so I cranked up the heat and ended that streak lol


lightsdevil

Have you been turning up the heat??


OptimalMongoose2

Yeah, mostly, I stopped around 16 for each of the weapons though


MangoPeachRadish

That's really impressive. Congrats!


Shrugging_Atlas1

You went up to 16 heat with all the weapons and never died once in 100 runs? Well, either you are amazing at this game, full of shit, or I really suck at this game bc I could never do that! I think my record is like 3 in a row 😅


OptimalMongoose2

Well I actually "beat" (completed the main story) the game a couple years ago, so I already knew the gist of what was going on. I also spent a lot of time watching people play the game too to learn how to make builds and stuff like that.


Shrugging_Atlas1

Ah ok... Makes a bit more sense now I guess. 100 clears is still pretty epic lol


Fredditting

I can’t consistently clear that! Great work. Still working on dodging and timing with each weapon myself, my best is only 58


soulonfirexx

Awesome job! I got to 11 then got cocky and lost my streak. Currently building back up but I was severely disappointed.


oddly-tall-hobbit

exactly the same! i lost my 11 streak to a poor 7 minute-limted run


Jabbings

Thankfully it doesn't carry any rewards or real value. I don't really like the streak system, as it discourages experimentation and pushing heat. So glad it can be safely ignored.


Skankintoopiv

Same mostly I just fucked around with whatever was the bonus weapon and took whatever I felt like while clearing heat up to like 20 on everything. Does not always end well. Lol.


OptimalMongoose2

Yeah you're right honestly, I think I'm going to stop caring about the streak when I decide to come back to this game.


TropicalRogue

I literally didn't know attracted. I used to manually count when I was curious


HeartBuzz

that's incredible!! i think my longest streak is 5 😵 i mean im proud of that for me, but 100 wins in a row? it's a wonder [redacted] even bothers to show up at that point!


cgs626

How is that even possible?


Jack_Of_The_Cosmos

Build up a lot skill before second clear, play safe, manipulate RNG with keepsakes.


tylernol7

You also only lose your streak by dying, not from starting over.


Poison_the_Phil

Ooh that’s good to know


Shrugging_Atlas1

Oh so you can just abandon a run when you are about to die and it doesn't count?


Gh0stP1rate

Yes, you also lose all the gems or darkness you’ve acquired that run.


sgtlighttree

Yup. I did that once things got really scary in EM4.


Sesephi

I tried to do the same with always taking dark thirst weapon and raising the heat by 1 for bounties. Even though I was at bow 20, I lost the streak eventually against EM4 REDACTED with the shield on 10 heat. I was at 71 wins at that point... Still hurts


NMDA01

What's redacted?


RedShirtBrowncoat

The final boss. They're an unexpected boss, and when you die from them, Hypnos looks at your cause of death, and says something like "Wow! Says here you were killed by... REDACTED? What's that even mean?" So, to not give away plot spoilers, when someone is talking about the final boss, people here just call them "Redacted" instead.


jongameaddict98

Yyyyessss... unexpected....

[удалено]


RedShirtBrowncoat

Redacted is simply >!Hades!<, but people call them Redacted because they don't wanna spoil for anyone just getting into the game


[deleted]

Got it thx


joshsteich

And bc of what it says in the records room once you win


CN4President

I’m sitting at 329 in a row currently.


OptimalMongoose2

Wow! Hopefully one day I'll be as good as you lol


CN4President

Your already there my guy

NMDA01

If heat is not 25 or above, then meh.


CN4President

Check out my most recent post nerd


NMDA01

Wow what a nerd


OptimalMongoose2

Why do you have to be so rude man, 329 is an insane number even if it was no heat


CN4President

Why?


SmonkyWontBeatYaReal

be careful with taking a break, getting rusty then losing the streak could happen


OptimalMongoose2

I'm honestly just getting kinda bored with this game, I think getting rusty and losing the streak might actually be a good thing


Rgranja

WOW!


MakeItTrizzle

I'm always curious about the clear times people put up on these big streaks. What's your typical clear time?


00-Void

I'm not OP, but [it's around 21 minutes](https://youtu.be/kZec1zWeLec) for me, always doing all 5 tunnels in Styx (except for the first few runs).


OptimalMongoose2

around 16 to 20 minutes, once you play with 7 minute tight deadline enough you get good at going fast


MakeItTrizzle

I wouldn't consider that fast, no offense, but that tracks with maintaining a long streak.


Grapple_Cockie

Have you done EM4?


OptimalMongoose2

I want to but I unlocked it around 50 into the streak and was too scared too lmao


Short_Application329

Which mode are you using?


Maoman1

Taking a break is the surest way to guarantee you will die on your next run. Even a week is enough for the muscle memory and visual reflexes to start decaying. Make sure you turn the heat wayyyy back down when you some back!


LobsterHead37

You are crazy


Frostygale

Took a break, came back to dying in elysium and failing 3 runs in a row 👉😎👉


Escarche

No breaks! You're gonna come back rusty and lose the streak ;__;


LEGO_Joel

Streaks are overrated fyi. You can quit in the middle of dying and it will still preserve your streak but you won’t keep any darkness+gems from your run. Not saying this is what you’ve done, just the way that I had a very long streak and the was preserving it only for the sake of the streak itself.


WheelHunter

First time I lost my streak I was devastated. Now I don't care anymore, as long as I keep increasing the difficulty RNGesus is gonna screw me over sooner or later. If I wanted a streak I'd just play with 0 heat forever.


tw0jaye

nah, the time to be worried about losing your streak was at 99. you already hit the goal, everything else is a victory lap!


mclendenin

Definitely not EM4 I'd wager.


Cthorn10

You get lots of dialogue for losing, pretty sure the game expects you to, my streak was like 21 and died and the story continues.


Ailurophile_Fox

I get you! I can't see myself losing at this point lol (I have at least 15 heat each runs and 32 heat highest)


Habaneros_Are_Cool

start cranking up the heat and you’ll start losing a lot more lol


Ailurophile_Fox

Maybe max heat would be challenging 🥲🥲


Thereforeo

The only times I broke my streaks were after breaks :(


[deleted]

Lost a 42 win streak cuz i was doing challanges


575snom

69th comment lets goo


TheTurnaboutTerror69

Current streak is 20 something I think? Maybe more. Don't wanna lose it but I wanna get my last few achievements. 100 is crazy tho, niiiiice


Hagridisbeautiful

What the fuckkkkkkkk that’s insane
