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.
