For the people who have cleared 32 Heat, did you work your way up there one Heat at a time? And if not, what was the highest heat you did before going to 32?
He teleports right up into your shit constantly, I cannot see that working
If he teleported I didn't notice. I was dashing across the pit, stabbing him and his entourage with the spear, dashing back across, more stabs, dash, etc. It never touched me.

Nah, I didn't go through the prior 31 heat levels to get to 32. Highest I'd done was probably 20.
Demeter only becomes aware of you after you make it to the surface and feel the winter - when you do see the sun, it's through Persephone's power over her garden, not Apollo, so I guess he never reaches you. He's mentioned in one of the descriptions of the improvements too I think so it's not like he doesn't exist.
Demeter makes a couple references to her keeping the cloud cover so thick that the sun can't reach the surface
Technically she's talking about Helios there - while Apollo is also god of the sun (and that became increasingly his primary role as time went on), he's the god of medicine and music and archery as well.

There is at least one instance of her specifically calling Apollo a ding dong

I think I jumped to 32 from 16? Which is the next statue level down. Before that, I was around 8-10. The main thing is I just stacked up a whole bunch of things that weren't taking more damage or losing healing, so it felt less like a difficulty spike and more like a whole pile of annoyances.

32 heat is just for fun and a cosmetic thing really.
I've been making it a goal while unlocking the Epilogue to get a 32 heat win on all weapons. I won with my 4th weapon, the gun Exagryph, yesterday! Absolutely bonkers build with Secret Aspect.
I wish I was playing on pc so I could record my like 20 second kill of bull/spear guy. Check this dumb build:
Aphrodite's Aid Lvl3 for 7.5 second charm
Smoldering air (god gauge capped at 1 but gains 1% every 0.2 seconds)
Clouded Judgement (dealing /taking damage charges god gauge faster)
Then the rest is just 4 dashes, zues lighting dash, and fists with Zeus lihhtning and jolted for hella gauge generation.
Basically kept one of them charmed the whole time stacked on eachother while I luightning'd them both down.
My only issue with the poison is that I'm an idiot that never thinks to check where the poison pots are when I enter a room so when I get poisoned I immediately go into full panic mode and frantically search the screen for the cure despite the fact that I'm almost always standing right near one.
Take the Broken Spearpoint keepsake. (The one that gives you a brief period if invincibility when you take damage.)
One tick of damage from poison is enough to activate it, and it gives you enough time to go and cure it before it wears off. It also helps against the small but continuous damage of all the lasers and swarms of rats. It makes 95% of the rooms in Styx super easy.
Am I misunderstanding something about Hades' trinket? It doesn't seem particularly useful. I hit it once and turn invisible, then I almost instantly reappear and everything starts coming after me again. Can you dodge/avoid certain damage while invisible?

gets rid of poison and a few other effects on you. You can't get targetted, so i'm p sure i've used it for invincibility from certain attacks. It does require some pretty tight timing tho.
I find it super useful, but i'm way more into the free level ups that i rarely, if ever, take it.
Yeah, the other endgame trinket is so insanely powerful that this one doesn't even seem to compare. Though I guess it depends on the boons you have and how good they were, and if you plan to clear all the side rooms in Styx.
Fulfilled the prophecy for the secret bow aspect but I don't think I'll be using it again for now. Another one I can't figure out how to optimize
I only cleared it on five heat but it seemed pretty straightforward. The Attack has really high base damage and the Special is a huge damage buff. Just put something like Hangover on the special and high % damage on the Attack and it kinda just works out. Bonus if you get a duo that syncs up, like Doom Special + Weak Attack.
My go-to is still Hera but that’s just because I found the secret kind of boring.
So I thought Satyrs were goat dudes who just liked to 1. fuck and 2. drink, why are they weird poison creatures in this
is there story stuff about it? I've only been to the final area once

at one point Dionysus told me "yeah i don't know what the fuck are up with those satyrs, the ones i know are chill as hell and you'll have a great time hanging out with them"

The satyrs are satyrical.

Then I did a nice leisurely 10 heat with the gloves. Man, what a relief it is to come down from that high heat.
Plop plop fizz fizz
Yeah I just stood on the other side of the center pit and hit him with impunity the entire time
If he teleported I didn't notice. I was dashing across the pit, stabbing him and his entourage with the spear, dashing back across, more stabs, dash, etc. It never touched me.

By the way if there is a plot reason please don't actually tell me what it is, just that it is plot related.
He's one of four Olympians omitted - my hope is for an expansion or something that fills them in

Hestia is @SilverWind 's favourite Olympian, and it would be cool to see her added to the game in some capacity in future

Secret silly thing unlocks at 32 heat.

Alls left is Shield and Bow... my least favorite.

I find the whole poison mechanic to be unpleasant.

I thought you couldn't use that trinket in that fight
