Some mortals surely would wish to live forever if only they could. Not that it makes major practical difference. To my best knowledge the 'Abandoned' tag is asserted on projects that havent seen any progress in an year. Though, for the sensible ones, spending an eternity in the fields of Elysium would be their foremost choice to the forever in that beautiful place, together with only the greatest souls to have ever lived. Horrible Degenerate said: The F95zone 'Abandoned' tag doesnt necessarily mean that developer abandoned the project. Elysium is the most exclusive, sparsely populated region in the Underworld, and even still, it is perhaps the most well-known (although Tartarus has considerable notoriety, as well). Many mortals strive for greatness all their lives, never quite realizing there is no existing formula for it. Greatness is evaluated here, by several judges entrusted to consider the many cases the Master himself cannot see to personally. A lifetime spent achieving impressive feats is the best preparation I can think of.' Residents So, it must be said that reaching Elysium is no small feat. The traps of Elysium act differently than the traps from previous levels, and can be used more offensively than the ones in Asphodel and Tartarus. One of these traps are the regrowing phoenix eggs. Like the explosive barrels in both Tartarus and Asphodel, these eggs can be primed by Zagreus (or by the projectiles from other traps) to explode, dealing high damage to anything caught within the radius. Unlike the barrels, these eggs will eventually regrow in the same spot, thus they can be reused to deal damage to enemies (and serve as a constant threat)Įlysium also features automatic firing crossbow traps. These traps will regularly fire slow-moving, high-damage bolt projectiles across the room. These bolts can trigger the destruction of phoenix eggs, with many rooms having an egg across the room from each crossbow. Like most projectiles, these bolts can be deflected.

However, they cannot be destroyed.įinally, Elysium features hoplite statues which line some of the walls of its chambers.
