[vivid creek]

6h is nuts
I think it took me like 10-12h & I had about 130-ish hours/p5 beaten when I started

[heavy barn]

i had like 200 hours when i started

[vivid creek]

Fair enough, lol

[heavy barn]

and i'd already done way harder challenges like itemless failed champ

[vivid creek]

Noice noice

How many hours now?

[heavy barn]

like 250 i think

[vivid creek]

ah, kk

[heavy barn]

probably more actually

[pliant tree]

guys

i beat white defender

[vivid creek]

Grats!

[pliant tree]

But i was left with 3hp

[vital tundra]

sly is extremely ez radiant with elegy tho

[pliant tree]

im not beating p4 bro

[vital tundra]

also lost kin should not be that high up

[maiden echo]

I beat gpz radiant I still think he's my third favorite ts was fun

[vital tundra]

https://medal.tv/games/hollow-knight/clips/lAwuwOIHYWWuhc_iU?invite=cr-MSx6bE8sNDQyOTIxNzM3&v=67

markof pride really helps on this boss

[vernal knot]

IP grabber

[maiden echo]

Oh hey

[dull radish]

bruh the strength is actually so good bruh

[vital tundra]

why is flukemarm on f

[vivid creek]

List is based on an average player with the regular QS/Str/MoP/SB build

My own list would probs be a bit different
Sly was my very first radiant & I got him 3rd try :v

[haughty forge]

Any tips for the Broken vessel?

[vivid creek]

Because the regular build 1-shots the adds and like a few nail strikes -> a few shrieks will end the fight

[vital tundra]

not on radiant no

[thick elk]

Stockholm syndrome trust

[maiden echo]

Its not I didn't have much trouble at all

[pliant tree]

Thanos

Thanks*

[vital tundra]

with mark of pride u barely have to dodge

[thick elk]

I certainly did

[pliant tree]

What if i use long nail?

[vital tundra]

idk

[thick elk]

including all bindings zote tbf

[pliant tree]

cayse i have quick focus too

[vital tundra]

just know that depending on how the effects look when he comes out on the ground, either he will come out instantly or he will wait a bit then throw poop everwhere

[vivid creek]

It has 900hp
And you can 1 shot the adds

It's pretty easy imo

[vital tundra]

u cant on radiant

[vivid creek]

Wait, replied to the wrong message
Lol

[vital tundra]

they have 35 hp

[fair cove]

GPZ has been bullying me

[earnest widget]

i shouldn't chase absrad when we're in the air, right?

[vital tundra]

js be patient

except with narts but duh

[fallow grotto]

You should

[earnest widget]

i can't tell how far away i should be willing to follow her

[vital tundra]

it only depends on her attack

[earnest widget]

at the moment i'm at around 2 platforms max

[vital tundra]

except w shade soul sstone

[vivid creek]

Just checked
Still F-tier tho, one extra slash doesn't really make it much harder

[vital tundra]

it does i promise

[modern lynx]

Im most likely getting hk today im so excited

[vital tundra]

a lot of people give up radhog there

i personally did not have a hard time but its definitely above some D tiers

[modern lynx]

I normally die to the first boss lol on my friends ps5

[vital tundra]

u will get good quickly

[modern lynx]

Ok bet i already have a decent strategy for false knight

[vivid creek]

Fair enough ig
I could see it being like top of E/low D

It's been more than a year since I did radhog so I forgot the adds weren't 1-shot on radiant

[vital tundra]

I would put it on C tbh

U should try it

[vivid creek]

I did
It's still light work

[vital tundra]

yeah but not as little as D

[vivid creek]

Agree to disagree ig
I still think it's easier than broken vessel/mawlek/gorb

[vital tundra]

idk

[pliant tree]

yoooo

lets go

i got past white defender

and now im at the checkpoint

of p4

bruh

i died

to failed chanpion

i forgot how to kill ts dude

[peak furnace]

[earnest widget]

[forest elm]

Hi guys hru uall

[forest elm]

[frozen hull]

Finished it

[true bone]

It's dlc

[peak furnace]

Hmmm

How to active it

[frozen hull]

It already is

They're just updates

[true bone]

Check out the waterways, the grosser the location in it the closer u are

[peak furnace]

So how to play through

[true bone]

There is a breakable wall in the grossest place in the wayerways

[peak furnace]

Oh

Imma go find it

[zinc delta]

i forgot i made tea bc i was busy playing hk

[earnest widget]

[dawn nacelle]

Shock

Horror

How weak do you want him to be

[earnest widget]

the jumps are the dumbest thing it does

[wide charm]

[remote bear]

Markoth aint that hard, does p5 make it harder?

[earnest widget]

[nocturne scarab]

[pliant tree]

Pure vessel biggest fraud ever

bro

[wide charm]

howdoes that even make sense

[earnest widget]

waaahh waaah someone is surprised at a hard boss

[lavish pivot]

P5 takes the floor😭

[vivid creek]

p5 markoth isn't terrible
It's the fact that GPZ comes right after

They collectively curbstomp the player

[pliant tree]

this guy once i get close just tps to the other side of the map and spams projectile

Wow?

[earnest widget]

see, i can do it too

[worthy peak]

Please hes messaged so many more complaints about PV being unfair

[lavish pivot]

Also radiantdoes the same thing

[twin raven]

BUT

[earnest widget]

but he just first saw PV like 5 mins ago

[lavish pivot]

It's like the GT TMG combo in p3 but so much harder

[pliant tree]

Are we fucking serious

I accidentally

Fucking

[vivid creek]

gg!

[pliant tree]

Start4ed

Ascended pure vessel

And i cant even last 20s with normal pure vessel

bro?

[zinc delta]

[pliant tree]

Cancel button where??

[worthy peak]

EXACTLY Im complaining that hes barely tried but is accusing it of being unfair

[earnest widget]

how can it be "so many more"

[lavish pivot]

Glhf lmao

[twin raven]

Cool…?

[zinc delta]

damn

[pliant tree]

wow.

wow.

wow.

ow.w

[earnest widget]

you're not "complaining about that" you're just being passive aggressive

[lavish pivot]

Dawg it took me 72

[pliant tree]

Wow

Wow

Youre telling me

[worthy peak]

its not passive

[pliant tree]

Ascended pure vessel does 4 masks

[earnest widget]

true

[pliant tree]

Bro

Wow

Who balanced this boss bro

[vivid creek]

Both GT & TMG are pretty easy ngl
I think Galien -> GPZ (also p3) is worse

[zinc delta]

yeah ascended does 2x damage

[pliant tree]

This 110% kid talking to me

is insane

[zinc delta]

i think

[lavish pivot]

So does acended NKG and FC 💀

[pliant tree]

Yeah its not fair btw bro

Like how?

bro u have 110% completion

[earnest widget]

ok that is dumb

[pliant tree]

and talking to 11%

[earnest widget]

shut up

[pliant tree]

You cant talk

[worthy peak]

Its hard not unfair please learn the difference

[pliant tree]

because u never fought pv

[zinc delta]

how come i beat him on radiant then?

[lavish pivot]

Yk your supposed to not get hit, so ya don't die... Right?

[pliant tree]

Lucky

[twin raven]

Idk

[pliant tree]

Because some thoings he does arent missable

Like dodgeable

Pure vessel attack patterns are unpredictable and undodgeable

[zinc delta]

nice HoG

[pliant tree]

Wtf is hog

[earnest widget]

cranking my hog

[dry hamlet]

Well after my last 5 dream bosses

Im off to god home

[zinc delta]

hall of gods

[analog niche]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-hollow-knight-silk-issue-silk-issue-gif-15588893687607418966

[dry hamlet]

To finish all of that

[lavish pivot]

No not really, his telegraphs are about as easy as AbsRad and NKG

[vivid creek]

good luck

[dry hamlet]

Then off to Silksong

[hidden spire]

Raghh.. I'm at 110% and I'm pretty damn sure I'm only missing p4

[dry hamlet]

Im hoping silksong is as fun and maybe a bit less painful than this

[hidden spire]

who am I missing

[dry hamlet]

Tbh im not gonna do radiant

[analog niche]

Trial of the fool?

[vivid creek]

I've got some rough news

[dry hamlet]

Im gonna just do ascended and attuned

And not do radiant

[zinc delta]

wait a minute i have a connection for hk again not ut this time

[pliant tree]

yoooooooo

lets goooooo

[earnest widget]

only difference is nkg can't do things that aren't an attack

[vivid creek]

Fair enough

[hidden spire]

Did it. I couldn't have finished p3 If I didn't beat the tamer

[pliant tree]

I knocked up ts dude

once

and now he starts doing explosions

wow

[analog niche]

no, you can

[pliant tree]

Very balanced

[twin raven]

The hell is radhog

[pliant tree]

ur gonna call this balanced bro?

[hidden spire]

Oh

[zinc delta]

hollow knight exists in the same realm as don't starve and or don't starve together

[hidden spire]

I see

[lavish pivot]

Quit ragebaiting

[vivid creek]

Hall of gods on radiant (hitless)

[analog niche]

Charms?

[zinc delta]

trust me

[hidden spire]

well I did it tho

[earnest widget]

"this shit dude"

[hidden spire]

All of them

[pliant tree]

im srs bro

Because if he does explosions windup

[worthy peak]

its fun!

[pliant tree]

and then lunge

[hidden spire]

Let me check if I'm missing one of them dream warrior

[pliant tree]

its not dodgeable

thats a fact

[worthy peak]

the other bit. ehh

[keen thorn]

Sigh

[lavish pivot]

My sh*t posting senses are tingling, idkkkkk....

[worthy peak]

an untrue one

[keen thorn]

What in the ragebaiting world is happening

[zinc delta]

idk tbh

[earnest widget]

no mods here?

[pliant tree]

im never beating panteon 4 bro

[lavish pivot]

It is, my proof: no hit P5

[keen thorn]

Hello

[pliant tree]

wtf is panteon 5 there are only 4 doors

[vivid creek]

Genio
I got 5-hit r5 run today
1 to uumuu, one to wall spikes in EG and 3 to absrad 'cause of nerves

[fallow grotto]

ngl this is worse than sugeetam ragebait 😔

[fallow grotto]

i remember the day when i asked genio his favorite hk character

he said the white lady

[lavish pivot]

Above p4 chamber you find p5, it's basically just every other one

At once

[keen thorn]

After beating P4, you unlock P5

[earnest widget]

who is EG?

[keen thorn]

And yes

[vivid creek]

Enraged guardian

[keen thorn]

5 hit let's go

[earnest widget]

ah

[vivid creek]

I jumped into the spikes after the fight ended like a dumbass

[keen thorn]

How the fuck do you get hit to enrage guardian SPIKES

[earnest widget]

you can get hit by the spikes?

[zinc delta]

ykw i'm so washed i might do some practice (and by practice i mean absrad)

[pliant tree]

nvm

[heavy barn]

high up on the walls yeah

[keen thorn]

[wicked kiln]

Hits on radiance are sad cause hes actually so easy you dont have to look for hitbox on the radiance and hes super slow

[pliant tree]

Myabe

Pure vessel

is possible

[zinc delta]

lemme put down my pole rq

[vivid creek]

I like to run up the walls and c-dash back and forth after I finish a fight
Accidentally jumped too high

[lavish pivot]

YES

[worthy peak]

yes i know from experience

[wicked kiln]

Fire pfp

[keen thorn]

That's not really true. AbsRad is close to a consistent hitless difficulty as GPZ or Markoth. The issue is she's at the end

The fact she doesn't do contact damage means nothing

[vivid creek]

Oh boy

[carmine lava]

markoth is definitely the easiest

[keen thorn]

I mean yeah of course

[lavish pivot]

also to practice p3 I just no hit Grimm and GT 5 times in a row😭

[keen thorn]

But it's not something that makes her easy

[wicked kiln]

I think shes way easier than these 2 purely cause you onky gotta dodge her attacks and not hitbox

[pliant tree]

bro

[wicked kiln]

And you can melt her

[pliant tree]

pure vessel

doesnt do contact damage?

[keen thorn]

All bosses are consistent
It's not easy to get there tho

[vivid creek]

It does

[pliant tree]

bro im touching his leg he aint doing anything to me lmfao

[keen thorn]

For R5, all that matters is hitless consistent difficulty

And all bosses always have something evil to bring to the table

[earnest widget]

that's absrad

[wicked kiln]

I think abs rad is only hard cause shes at the end besides that shes easy to no hit

[earnest widget]

all other bosses do contact damage

[twin raven]

And normal rad

[zinc delta]

i put my pole back to it's stand so now ima do absrad

[vivid creek]

Galien undercover opp in r5

[keen thorn]

But the hardest are always AbsRad, Markoth, GPZ, and other dumbs like Obblobbles, Marmu or Galien

[lavish pivot]

Dawg NGL I just got on to play p4 and died immediately without landing a single hit

[keen thorn]

In general the main difficulty is not one single boss

It's the fact there are 42 of them

[zinc delta]

i'm washed so i doubt i could do it first, second or third try

[pliant tree]

what is your percentage

Yeah bro

exactly lol

[lavish pivot]

DONT GET ME STARTED ON OBBLOBBLES

[lavish pivot]

108

[keen thorn]

one thing is a single hitless, which can be eased or hardened depending on skill level and personal style at the start of the game

But another is consistent hitless

[pliant tree]

You havent even fight pure vessel

[keen thorn]

Try to do like a 4 or 5 streak, it's not easy at all

[wicked kiln]

Obboble is very easy after many runs after you learn the pattern

[pliant tree]

Amnd ur talking bro

Bro u aint gonna like him

at all

bro

what does this prove

[wicked kiln]

Record was 3

4th was 1 hit

[pale belfry]

So... Im gonna come here to repend my play time...

[twin raven]

Why isn’t p5 a %

[keen thorn]

Each extra increases a lot of difficulty

3 is pretty good ngl

[zinc delta]

...

[remote bear]

too hard

[lavish pivot]

Dawg it can't be much harder than NKG on radiant

[keen thorn]

Also yes, but it still doesn't make it an easy fight

[pliant tree]

It does not make any sense

[neat monolith]

Touch grass

[twin raven]

Just git gud

[pliant tree]

stfu bro

[stiff kiln]

i just bought hollow knight today

[neat monolith]

I beg

[keen thorn]

You have to remember this in the context of an R5 streak

[pale belfry]

Im sensing a daddy issue deep within your soul

[stiff kiln]

and i am so fucking lost bro 😭

[wicked kiln]

Im not saying its easy by any means its just personalky easier

[pliant tree]

bro probably just beat panteon 4

U only need panteon 4

Not p5

[keen thorn]

When attempting R5 you should have the power to do any given radiant in at least 2 or 3 troes

[pliant tree]

Bro did 70 panteon 5

[stiff kiln]

do i just go anywhere or is there a specific way im supposed to go

[lavish pivot]

LEAVE NOW SPOILERS ARE ADMIST

[keen thorn]

Otherwise you're just not ready whatsoever

[pliant tree]

💔

[remote bear]

yea but some times people dont have a lot of time

[stiff kiln]

oh ok

[lavish pivot]

NO JUST FREE BALL IT RUN

[keen thorn]

But that still puts you waaaaaay behind the skill required to actually do R5

[zinc delta]

ok nvm i'm not washed

[pale belfry]

Whos calling you shit?

[nimble trench]

https://tenor.com/view/stop-fighting-smiling-friends-no-fight-stop-it-stop-arguing-gif-8713281799291953889

Small quick bosses are the worst

[stiff kiln]

alr

[keen thorn]

Yeah this is true

[naive dew]

geniogn

[pliant tree]

i can bro

[naive dew]

genio

genio

[keen thorn]

Quick bosses are quite bad to consistently hitless

[earnest widget]

take your time with the game

[pliant tree]

u probably beat pv

[nimble trench]

why is it that every time i click on this chat people are beefing 💔

[pliant tree]

because you get lucky with attack pattern

[keen thorn]

Even if they are well choreographed

[pliant tree]

Wtf is any rad

[naive dew]

hellgenio

[pliant tree]

Bro inventing new words

[vivid creek]

Yeah, literally just the bosses you mentioned in that other message doing radiant consecutively are would be kinda rough even if that was the entire challenge
But then in r5 you can take stupid hits to literally any boss, like falling into an uumuu jellyfish

[zinc delta]

any radiance

[keen thorn]

Hellone!!!

[zinc delta]

quite a hard mod

[naive dew]

hiiiiiiiii hru

[agile mantle]

Hello

[zinc delta]

i wish i could use it on console for practice

[agile mantle]

How is everyone

[wicked kiln]

Nkg is a pattern that is easily dodge by dashes but lost kin is just so mean and sometimes so fast and just snipes you its horrible

[keen thorn]

Yes exactly

[pliant tree]

its jsut radiance

[naive dew]

1.0 is lowkey not that hard the difficulty comess from not wanting to end your own life of boredom

[pliant tree]

its just radiance??

[keen thorn]

Well NKG is not even a boss

[pale belfry]

Well, best idea for both @wheat saffron and @pliant tree is for both of you two to just... NOT be bickering over skill when skill just... isnt important

[zinc delta]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-gif-25277476

[wicked kiln]

?

[zinc delta]

just radiance?

[wicked kiln]

Nightmare king grimm

[keen thorn]

-# I'm saying he's the freest of the free

[wicked kiln]

Ohhh i get it

[zinc delta]

that's just 1.0 i believe

[wicked kiln]

Yeah thats true

[misty umbra]

The problem with lost kin is the random ass jumps

[wicked kiln]

Only times i get hit at him are the times i get bored of him

[keen thorn]

It's a hyperbuffed version of Radiance

[zinc delta]

exactly

[keen thorn]

Once considered to be impossible

[misty umbra]

Otherwise it's one of my favorite bosses

[zinc delta]

i wish it was on console

[pliant tree]

Bro says i cant beat pv bro

[zinc delta]

ingame modding would be awesome

[pliant tree]

im destroying ts dude bro

[worthy peak]

well that makes my time spent on it non-existant

[pale belfry]

And I said stop bickering

[worthy peak]

like c'mon

[fresh isle]

imp im possible modded boss interrobang ⁉️

[worthy peak]

everyone says 1.0 not that hard

why?

[pale belfry]

[fresh isle]

there are colored names

https://tenor.com/view/major-spelling-mistake-gif-1745161421153268178

[wicked kiln]

Gimme

R3d name color

[vivid creek]

Idk
I was gonna try it after r5
I've heard people say r5 is comparable difficulty to anyrad 2.0, so I figured I could probably grind out anyrad 1.0 fairly easily

Not that the skills are 1:1 correlation tho

[pliant tree]

it does not make any sense

[fresh isle]

that ones reserved for team cherry im afraid

[pliant tree]

That pure vessel jump contact damage

is 2

masks

???

[nimble trench]

ig compared to 2.0 and 3.0 its not so hard
but hollow knight players have this habit of forgetting what is genuinely hard to the average player once they start grinding out insane challenges

[wicked kiln]

Cause they are good and have doubke the reactiok time of you

[pliant tree]

Bro its just a jump

[worthy peak]

look it just makes me feel worse and im going to complain

cause ive got 30 hours and i still can't even semi consistently reach plats

[wicked kiln]

Thats true

[fresh isle]

1.0 isnt really a reaction heavy boss mostly just movement and knowing how to ddark well

[civic arch]

can we just nuke the entirety of deepn*st

[worthy peak]

like what evidence do you have for this

[vivid creek]

Rip
You'll get it tho, just gotta grind it out

[wicked kiln]

Reached platforms in abput 8 to 10hours for the first time

[wicked kiln]

Wdym

[worthy peak]

for all you know my struggle with it could entirely be planning

[zinc delta]

nerf dirtmouth and buff absolute radiance

[keen thorn]

After R5 and also already a backlog of other radiance mods I did anyrad in 9 hors

[oak maple]

well then say goodbye to your mask shard

[worthy peak]

not reaction time

[nimble trench]

what other radiance mods did you do genio

[vivid creek]

Noice

[nimble trench]

the one by rot?

sunset samara or whatever its called

[pliant tree]

no way

bro

i got

to phase 3 pure vessel

[civic arch]

i might develop arachnophobia because of deepnest

[keen thorn]

Anyways, this is a table of all my hits on finished runs during R5
This counts super early runs so some bosses are clearly big outliers since they'd hit me twice every other run lol. I eventually learned consistency

[fresh isle]

sunset samsara is pretty hard

[keen thorn]

I'm thinking of a new table that changes the start point of the runs considered

[pliant tree]

bro its normal i was scared too after some time its nothing at all

[civic arch]

https://tenor.com/view/i'm-out-i'm-out-1-3-seconds-1-3-seconds-meme-sliding-gif-18353827383643920094

[nimble trench]

how is it compared to anyrad 1.0 or 2.0

[keen thorn]

You'll notice Marmu has 1
This is because I'd quit all of them

[fresh isle]

how is ur total 101

[keen thorn]

Probably in between

[zinc delta]

not having luma when in deepnest is torture to the point i had to use a website to know where i was and where to go

[keen thorn]

Good question...

[nimble trench]

fair

[fresh isle]

a little bit harder than 1.0 maybe
idk its very different than other modded bosses

[carmine lava]

markoth higher than absrad is funny

[civic arch]

i played the game so many times
i memorised all maps EXCEPT deepnest thats just how bad it is 😨 ( not badly designed i mean)

idk how to describe it

[zinc delta]

i came back once i had luma

[civic arch]

but its so cramp

[keen thorn]

I took longer to strategize Markoth

Basically it

[vivid creek]

101 hits is absolutely nuts
Like, you did it in 97h right?
That's like one hit an hour

[keen thorn]

101%

That's why eloki pointed it out lol

[vivid creek]

Oh, gotcha
I thought it was #hits not %hits

[keen thorn]

Also all reset runs were not documented

[vivid creek]

I'm blind

[keen thorn]

Otherwise I'd have like 200 vfk

[keen thorn]

.# first % second

[fresh isle]

hi my names eloki and i plan to beat p5 100,000 times before i die without resetting

[vivid creek]

Based couriway reference

[zinc delta]

nice plan

[pale belfry]

Do it no hit

[pliant tree]

ok bro

[keen thorn]

Actually an average P5 may as well be as short as an average MC run

[pliant tree]

i take my words

on what i said

about pure vessel

[potent monolith]

huh? that's it to kill lurien? I thought there's gonna be another bossfight, even made a gate & swap charms and all 😭

[zinc delta]

i wish i could do that but i'd end up dying at the 5-15k mark

[pliant tree]

Hes a fun boss but after he gets explosions

Its not fun bro

[zinc delta]

i probably would have breaks for sleep

[pale belfry]

Chat, do we tell them aboout Herrah?

[vivid creek]

I feel like average mc runs might be longer tbh
At least for no-reset

there's so much rng in mcsr compared to p5sr

[fresh isle]

if ur like crazy good at both average mc runs are faster i think

[zinc delta]

what game

[pliant tree]

no one cares lil bro

[zinc delta]

oh

Maybe a better set up will also enable r5ab

[silver spoke]

how many bindings do I need

I'm only missing pantheon 4

[fresh isle]

i could do r5ab

[worthy peak]

hi

[fresh isle]

nah
no plans to grind any hk challenges that are more difficult than the stuff ive done

[fallow grotto]

is this modded or something 🤔

[nimble trench]

my lenovo laptop that is probably gonna die within the next year

[fresh isle]

besides maybe like 112 hitless

[fallow grotto]

cuz u can just super parry the things

[knotty ravine]

this is because hitless stuff sucks ass in tc

[fallow grotto]

or whatever

[keen thorn]

So you're capped at charmless R5

[fallow grotto]

if not you just jump over them ig

[fresh isle]

the bearings on my laptop fan broke

[vivid creek]

Understandable

[fallow grotto]

i never modded the game but I beat it before 😁

it usually isn’t blue.

it’s red is it not

😳

is that some new feature

[vivid creek]

True

[fallow grotto]

🤔

ok

[left sparrow]

what do you mean it's awesome and fine

[fallow grotto]

then u just parry

that’s it

??

it looks pretty easy 🤔

[fresh isle]

need to work more (oh the horror) so i can actually get a pc

[fallow grotto]

eloki no one elokis you

doesn’t look that fast to me ngl

just charge it up before hand

or memorize the visual cues for the boss

im pretty sure you can also jump over it

wait shit what are those.

i remember being able to in the vanilla eallangong

is it different for modded

it can’t be that fast

well yeah you’re basically saying what you have to do then

[long vector]

Hello guys

[fallow grotto]

ngl where can I install mods for THTA game

im gonna see for myself

i dont know what that is 😔

modded boss though

well not modded but increased difficulty

[pliant tree]

to deal with

pv explosions?

Like theyre lowkey annoying

[fallow grotto]

😔

[misty umbra]

If pv is close to you and its doing that attack use ddark

You can land free hits

why do i get hit more than once

i mean i know why

@summer quarry yo did u block me??

[fallow grotto]

• strength

[worthy peak]

its cause i suck

[fallow grotto]

I dislike this person.

[remote bear]

breh i was gonna get gifted hollow knight on steam and the guy made me wait a week and blocked me 💀 😭

sad fr

[knotty ravine]

pv's orbs have two patterns of spawning, alternating with each focus

[fallow grotto]

he lied

[spiral vault]

Very smart of you sugatereeeeem

[remote bear]

ye he blocked me hes in the dc as well tried getting in contact with him but just ignore me

[fallow grotto]

thank tou

[remote bear]

@summer quarry wat did i do bro 😭 🥀

[crimson quiver]

pv's focus can easily be avoided by either going away from the explosions (dash makes it easier) or you can use the good old ddark (but is a waste of soul)

[vivid creek]

Play passive, ddark spikes in phase 2, ddark plats to dodge stuff in phase 4 (and phase 6 if you need to)
Try to pogo & lead orbs off the top of the screen in phase 6

Abuse the hell out of shriek whenever you have excess soul

[crimson quiver]

Shriek is one of the mvps for AR lol

[spiral vault]

I think this guy wanted hk

its NOT that expensive

Wonder how long it'll be until we get HK + SK bundle deals

8????

[crimson quiver]

people be buying 70$ games and say "we want something cheap!" but then when they get a cheap game that is goated they just say "Please Speed i need this"

[vivid creek]

Yeah but no way you've got time to fire off 8 of 'em

[spiral vault]

Sorry you are NOT a sigma

[long vector]

Thanks dude i would try to unlock the lord of shades statue

[vivid creek]

How tho
Most I get is like 3 or maybe 4 usually

Yeah

[crimson quiver]

timing is key

[vivid creek]

I don't think so

Maybe I don't have enough PV practice

[spiral vault]

8 casts is ridonculous

Oh for focus or stagger

[crimson quiver]

that's more than enough

[spiral vault]

Oh yeah

[vivid creek]

Tbh I usually ddark focus and spam some nail slashes

[crimson quiver]

ddark is mostly used to dodge when needed (or for a specific attack of pv)

[spiral vault]

Ddark just in case you get in a pickle 🥒 🥒 🥒
