==Aspects== The Eternal Spear has 4 Aspects: [[Zagreus]], [[Achilles]], [[Hades]], and [[Guan Yu]]. Like all other weapons, each Aspect has 5 levels that can be unlocked by spending [[Titan Blood]]. The higher the level of the Aspect, the more effective its improvement is. Reaching the highest level in all Aspects requires 51 [[Titan Blood]]. An Aspect will not only change the appearance of the Eternal Spear, but will also improve its attacks. The Aspect of Guan Yu has a unique move set which changes the fighting style of the Eternal Spear. {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;" !

You don't have to have the spear equipped when you're fighting the boss, i.e. you can use any other weapon instead. * Unlock any 5 non-Zagreus aspects for any weapon using [[Titan Blood]]. *Talk to [[Achilles]] (with any weapon equipped) until he gives you the waking-phrase (''"I see you through the eyes of the crimson phoenix")''. * Equip the Spear at the [[House of Hades|House]] and then interact with its placeholder to reveal the Aspect of Guan Yu. ---- To meet the [[Titan Blood]] requirement while spending the minimal amount, invest 5 {{Titan Blood}} into 5 different weapons with 1 {{Titan Blood}} each in non-Zagreus aspects (eg. Nemesis Sword, Achilles Spear, Chaos Shield, Chiron Bow, and Talos Fists). It's also possible to reveal Guan Yu with 3 or 4 weapons but this involves spending more Titan Blood (minimum of 7 {{Titan Blood}} for 3 weapons or 6 {{Titan Blood}} for 4 weapons). '''Why is Achilles taking so long to talk about Guan Yu?''' Achilles has a "dialogue pool" containing the conversation about Guan Yu and everything else he has a comment about but you haven't heard yet. His dialogue about Guan Yu will happen randomly from that pool, so if you have large dialogue pool it could take a while for Guan Yu to come up. If you've exhausted his dialogue options (you visit him and he has no "!") before meeting Guan Yu's requirements, he will very likely talk to you about it after the very next run. '''Is it possible to trigger this conversation faster?''' If you don't mind doing suicide runs (letting yourself die in the first or second rooms and talking to Achilles afterwards), you can quickly cycle through his available dialogue options so Guan Yu comes up faster. To do this quickly, reset your mirror and in the Pact of Punishment put a point into Heightened Security and max Hard Labor. If you play normally, keep in mind that you will add to his dialogue pool if you do things that he has something to say about (like beating the final boss and advancing the storyline). ===Aspect of Guan Yu's move set=== {| class="wikitable" !Attack!!Description!!Damage!!Notes |- |Strike | Press '''Attack''' button to strike. |{{Green|40 Damage}} | |- |Combo |Press '''Attack > Attack > Attack''' for Combo. | 1st strike: {{Green|40 Damage}} 2nd strike: {{Green|60 Damage}} 3rd strike: {{Green|100 Damage}} | *There is a brief pause before each strike; the pause before each third strike is longer. *Dashes can be performed between the '''Attack''' inputs without interrupting the combo. |- |Dash Attack |Press '''Attack''' button quickly after dash. |{{Green|30 Damage}} | |- |Serpent Slash |Hold '''Attack''' to charge; release '''Attack''' to send out a spinning blade that moves forward. |1st charge: {{Green|20 Damage}} / {{Green|0.5s}} 2nd charge: {{Green|30 Damage}} / {{Green|0.5s}} Max charge: {{Green|50 Damage}} / {{Green|0.5s}} | *Heals Zagreus {{Green|1}} {{Health}} / hit *Spinning blade bounces off walls and pillars *Has [[Pierce]] |- |Crackling Skewer |Press '''Special''' button to throw an irretrievable firework in a straight line. |{{Green|45 Damage}} | *Has [[Pierce]] |}
