Only the fan animations. And aus
Being able to do more than just dodge is for sure better
playing anything thats more than a 7.5/10 makes undertale look like a 6/10
Undertale was stull fun doe
Which is why deltarune is good
Good music
if you get spoiled all stuff it just looks trash
undertale feels like a movie and not a game
And yet it could never work as a movie
Weird isn't it
lets UNDER and TALE LETS UNDER TALE
Nightmare grimm fight is ass
People gonna hate that take
whats the best mod that buffs bad charms
I have 106% on hk and still struggling on the Trial of the Fools just because of the wall jumping part where you can't heal
definition of skill issue ๐
Try charge nail arts to great slash and 1 shot the minions as they spawn
Should i use the nailmaster's glory, because i have every charm except unbreakable greed unbreakable heart and carefree melody
i have unbreakable strenght
Therefore what charms would you suggest? I also have all 11 notches
i buffed dreamshield so much yet it still sucks
Its a great charm for colos
You can 1 shot all the annoying flyers
True
nmg is just a great charm
Strength shaman at the very least
Catcher is great, qfocus can be nice, nmg is great, mop is nice etc
Quickslash
Qslash for colo isnt worth
i made glowing womb 3 notches but have more dmg and 12 of those glowing wombs
I misunderstood
i balanced glowing womb better then the devs
I didnt even think about the nailmaster's glory before thats a very good tip, thanks.
For colo ( and everyone might hate me for this) I suggest quickfocus and stalwart she'll as well as strength nailmasters glory and probably soul catcher
I hate you for this/j
Quick focus and stalwart shell was good for Nosk, aswell as the shaman stone
Ehh it's better than twister some times sometimes worse but they are both usually mid
For the synergy
Of healing whenever hit
guys i can balance charms
(when grounded)
new balance changes chat
๐
havent seen twister called mid in a minute
Buff quickslash
Well I definitely don't see much in it
charm notches increased from 2 to 3
Buff mop
Catcher and twister are both great, the better one depends on how much you heal
Im more of a nail based player than spell but i do find them useful in pantheons
dream shield when lower than 50% hp it gains a shield
Most people seem to argue that twisters just better and I never understood why they would
am i a good balancer
You have to remember synergies
Because they just see good player use it without knowing why
If you heal a good amount then catcher is better
yes
The only unconsidered con is if you have full soul, then twister is just better
like
My personal opinion is, i will only try mods after i have 112% the game and its not far away
I think it's about 60% spells to make it better
I remember calculating at some point
No idea how well I remember the results really
mine is over 100% I WILL use mods
How many grubs are there at the tower of love?
Thanks
spell twister is so good
after defeating collector
shame 2 costs aren't very good in lategame builds
I'm trying to get all grubs by memory and this is one of two things i've been unable to remember as of now
It's grater than 60 apparently
Cause that over 100 uses gives catcher a 17 soul edge
buffed livecore heart notch ammount from 2 to 1
what
the biggest advantage of twister is burst damage
2 costs are not good in lategame mostly
i often use twister + 3x3 when its not oc
steady body
Which isnt worth wasting the last notch for half the bosses
I use twister and sbody like 50/50
nmg
Yeah if you use soul at same speed as gain consistently 80% appears.to be the tipping point
Twister is definitely better than nmg atleast
But the burst is probably very good somt
I'll settle on that
Depends the challenge surely
nmg is top 6 charms if you exclude fury
Sometimes soul gain is difficult
7th p5 attempt ended yet again by gpz
Theres a few bosses where its not the case, but that applies to like all charms
hallo, i'm currently on a Steel Soul run and i've got a question..
if i die during a Dreamer fight, does it destroy my run?
Nuhuh
Eh its not outrageous
Its like low A for me
Really
Lune is gpz a common p5 run ender
Assuming you mean dream realm, only radiance and white palace kill you
quickslash, strength, shaman, steady body, MoP, nmg in that order imo
for lategame anyway
Okay good i dont just suck ass lmao
Wait white palace kills you?
MoP should be higher :)
Cause MoP
Ew
Uh oh
Mop is lower if anything
MoP is where it belongs
:)
But either way, no
however I wouldn't run MoP without steady body, qs, and strength
not this time
AHH but you don't realise my inability to do spacing
Instantly boosting nail range charms hugely
smt like strength is literally just added dmg, you cant achieve that effect without it
and if I don't have MoP I will always have nmg
MASSIVE BALANCE CHANGE: you dont lose grubelegdy buff after taking dmg but damage is now 25% of nail damage
Basically unusable
Nah I misunderstood I think
But still pretty bad
it was 50% now 25%
Elegy always been ass
Things took ages to kill with it anyway this doubles the already huge time that you need to pay attention if using elegy strats
And people can't keep concentration for that long
How is that 'exactly'
elegy is fun if only it was good
Doesn't solve how tiring it would be to use
you dont need to be full hp for the perk to work
So it now takes four times longer than regular nail. You become tired you take damagemyou die
old nail elegy damage only please with 1 damage per hit
Like how sharp shadow looks sick but is horrific
yes
I wish it like did more dmg but no distance or reduced cd or whatever
Ok fine now its 35% of the nail damage
Just not inhibiting
if I were good at the game I would do runs with elegy
Might just be okay then
I would just take away the entire health requirement
NMG my beloved
can someone explain why flukenest is good
also buffed butterfly elegdy with MOP combo
nmg enjoyers unite
now the range of the aoe is 75% bigger
because it is bugged to do way more damage than it should
it has a lingering hitboxs bug so hits multiple times basically
where do we think flukenest ranks if the player knows how to use it properly
It feels like it could be nearly top 5, maybe top 7-ish
after hearing that ez top 5
I'm just too used to regular ss
Flukes feel awkward, but I can see why it's so busted
Poor hornet & lost kin
Maybe I ditch MoP for flukes in r5 then 
I'll check a few speedrunning vids ig
you should ask the p5 speedrunners/112 runners if you want to learn flukes
Do you know the mechanics?
Not like charm = low rank in an otherwise use based list
Which is why shaman is c tier
wut
makes me sad
Who would do such a thing
Maybe B tier
fireball double hits are some of the best things in the game
I probably should use it slightly more
it is very strong
There are so many charms I have never even equipped
but the main thing is the fireballs feel so good
Shaman is not one of those though
Dream warriors & oblobble cheat code
lost kin too
Oh tru
Anything is a cheat code with lost kni
also soul master/tyrant & watchers tbh
He staggers to easy
I hope whoever made the room leading to fog canyon with the jumping bubble stuff can go fuck himself hard
Most inconsistent shit
hornet double hits as well
And uumuu, lol
You hit down and it puts you on the side tf
ss doublehits are cracked
xero triple hits
rip xero
Absrad double hits should be used in spell only speedkills
Except it's probably still less damage than abyss shriek
eh
oh no.
tbf that's the same damage as a right shriek
But it's a lot easier to hit
they are good if you have more than 3 casts to get back into soul gain efficiency
I swear 4 hits can happen
I swear
What? That is absurd
I'll take your word for it, lol
But I'm certainly never hitting it
triple hits are consistent though
Isn't there an fc/fk triple/quad hit too?
with like really good timing so you get the mace hitbox on both sides
there is and it works charmless
at least for triples iirc
Triple os definitely there
I have done it multiple times
By accident mainly
the timing of it is much easier with shaman
but you can use it in charmless to stagger lock fc
Noice
I don't really need it though
Cause attuned is stagger locked anyway
With just like 2 single hita
Usually 2 shrieks + 3 nail hits does it
Idk why but when doing double shrieks a lot of the time I only get 7/8 hits
Oh wait I read it wrong again
Yeah I get it now
it helps on soul tyrant as well
what are yall talking about

No
Whats yalls placement of HK?
(New Checkpoint event of Discord)
-# the 3/4 of the 269 Roblox sessions were all spent in a small game called Guts & Blackpowder
Never played it
You JUST joined today?
6th time hes joined the server
Wha
hes been here since the ancient times
Then how-
Hi
G'day mate
G day to you too
Valid placement lol
Why did you skip the first game?
Gahdayum
If silk song was there than hk would be second but it isn't
Yea im waiting till i beat P5 first
Same i haven't played it too I plain on doing 112% before silk song
I never played either game
Yeah the 112%'ll get you set
Ai
Explode
Silksong cant be THAT hard
Like
P5 has 43 bosses ffs
. _.
But it's just a bit more complicated movement wise imo
Yea ive seen the jump mechanisms..
42
It's a lot more fluid and enjoyable just might take like a little to get used to
More fun
@shrewd nymph
@quartz cave
hi.
I have heard some ppl say silk song movement isn't as smooth as hk movement is that true
ive only even known you as the fox
imo hk is alot more smooth
Hiii
It should be smooth bcz its SILKsong amiright
hiiii
I never played the second game soo ig I'll see it for myself
hmmmm it feels very right to me
its my default pfp
Reminds me of Donald Duck
ive changed names like at least 15 times...
Yeah it's almost like your pfp is not Grimm
idk its an Australian kids show iirc
artic fox
Ossie Ostrich
Quack? Quackity? Quacking? Middle names๐
You smell
ive lived in aus my whole life and have never heard of that
wtf hates me
it aired 1971

do i know you 
Yo
hmmm

Do anyone play Roblox??
you feel like an alt ngl
No
Anyone else?
roblox been dead for like a year now
ever since gag got popular and a bit before that
102 hk sessions 
I am an alt
This is a hk and ss server you probably should go to a Roblox server
because of the shelp situation
My main account is char aznable

guys help me beat funny red guy (nkg)
Tip don't die
.
Another tip: don't lose all your health and die
what charms should i use
sharp shadow
Depends on your playstyle
Sharp shawdow is a Underrated charm
Where are my minions
At crystal peak there mining away
why the fuck is brooding mawlek in the colosseum of fools๐ญ
I thought they're in the abyss
The abyss is just you palace
Because your not supposed to have fun in hk hk is a game about pain and only pain
What is the arguably best charm build
I actually fell asleep
Sharp shadow
Thats so true xd
prolly || strength, shaman, qslash, longnail ||
Uh
I use that actually
I like my place graved
nice
I think he asked for a charm not a built lol
I said build
He said build
he didn't
Sharp shadow

hush
defenders crest lets you get more dialogue and the leg eater gives you better prices when you have it equipped
Peak profile ๐ฅ
Drying vessel
Sharp shadow sucks
Skill issue
World is ending
Tiny knight
Sharp shadow is mid tbh
There are a lot more better charms to use on a build
Skill issue
Skill issue
sharp shadow is so good on nkg and everyone should pair it and dashmaster on the fight
overcharming of course
Ok how is it a skill issue
Ah yes dashmaster
Everyone's favourite
Avarage hollow knight fan that say skill issue when u say your OPINION
Skill issue
Bro Iโm a lobster
hating s shadow is the opposite of a skill issue dw
Im'a boil you up
Skill issue
Skill issue
You must be funny at parties
Hmmm
Yiu must be funny at partys
Shaman stone sucks
the thing is sharp shadow sucks
JUMP EM
sadly
Okay this one is skill issie
What in fresh hell did you just say
Skill issue
wait hang on I have one
steady body is the only charm worth talking about
Bro said one of the best charms on the game sucks
qslash?
Qslash?
quick slash is a mid nail charm surely
Brother I can't live without ts
so real
Couldn't think of anything better so you just copy paste the same reply lol
True
press the button faster idk
You know i never lie
Is thatttt nightmare shaw
Shaw
And u couldnt think of anything but say the same sentence "skill issue" when someone says its opinions
Skill issue
12 year old chat eek
Guh
to bingycord smh
Is lune even in bingycord
nope
Fr on most hard late game bosses you can't even get that second hit on quick Slash
just anyrad and hkt
get in bingycord
What
I threw so hard
went from sub 4 pace to sub 7 pace
Ima js give up and do some practicing to maybe clutch a sub 6
qs is the best charm in the game no contest
lategame anyway
real
why is sub 5 so fucking hard bro
Agree
Your just calling a charm trash without giving any proper reason
Strength is better for pure vessel for me
While strength gives like 50% boost to dps qs gives 100%
Both suck
Nope still 50%
I didnt call it trash
If str and shamans are S then QS is the only S+ charm
imo
Throw this mf to abyss
is this about sharp shadow
because sharp shadow is bad
Wayward compass being the god tier
Its mid cuz there are so much other charms u can use as an alternative
funnier the 5th time

I mean yeah it's pretty useful when fighting Bosses like radiance but for other bosses like Grimm three mantis lord you can't get a second hit without getting hit
you can get qs value on grimm
And it does not even give good opportunities like qs and ss
Frimm
and sisters
helppp I can't type
Qslash is easy to get but i hate it idk
Is this what it feels like to be hit in the head
Same
Skill issue
I wish there was 12 notches
steady body is 4th best charm
Same
That would lowkey broke the game but idc
Nah uh
I don't think so somehow
3rd
strength, quickslash, shaman are better
๐
Yk sometimes steady body helps alot in nail build
and debatably fury and flukes depending on user
I hate flukes
I spam it 10 times on gruz mother and she just tanks it
still doesn't beat out shaman
Shaman is good with d dive
So satisfying to watch all the hits land
Bored from the best charms, tell me what do you think is the WORST charm in the game
toa
Let me cook
thorns of agony, then sharp shadow
What does that means
Can grab shaman at the start of the game and it's crazy good the whole way through
sb only really shines in full nail builds with qs imo
But since the best endgame builds are the nail builds it automatically catapults sb to top tier
I agree with that one
shroom spore is surely up there
@foggy sable i have indoctrinated lune
good

It helps again lost kin so no
Its not that bad
Those annoying little orange bustards
thorns of agony
who in their right mind is using it over defenders crest
Sometimes they hit you even with that
whats a good 112 time?
I defeated lost kin wihout defenders crest
none of those are actively negative except thorns and sharp shadow
Nail spam detected
jonis blessing and deep focus can also fit there
Jonis blessing is so bad
Wdym
I wouldn't equip it if it was 0 notches
there are charms which are worth less than nothing
easier than with
melody is not good but isn't actively negative
"wyrm"
inhibiting charms are like toa, s shadow, glowing womb and sometimes the other summons, jonis, heavy blow and dcrest
or smt like that
- glowing womb & hb
Imo
Waste soul instead of using spells, & push stuff farther away so it takes longer to kill
I said wdym dont make a referance over it
Almost forgot about heavy blow
"wyrm"
yeah
Thats the worst charm i think
hb being hiveblood?
or it can be used in some niche cases
heavy blow
I see
heavy blow sucks
Hive blow
Nah ts carries in white place
Yeah
The stagger bonus from blow really blows
Kingsoul is actually so bad ngl
lowers stagger by 1 hit so yk it could be used
5 notches is crazy
it's not meant to be used
It's good in my eyes
cons are a little bit more notable
same way toa does damage, but not enough to makeup for the lost i frames
kingsoul is ass but ultimately inoffensive its little more than a narrative tool
Yeah but it does have a use
I mean you can beat the game using spells while having kingsoul equipped
hb in lost kin bullying
which one is toa
thorns
can you not do the normal stun strat?
ok well
it is funnier with hb
Ima practice some 112's
the extra distance makes combo staggers harder
which are like -3 hits usually
so
I threw my sub 5 pace so hard man
So many subs
Funny how you don't need to dodge lost kin attacks and just damage tank
Leave some for us
hitting a nail art with hb should throw bosses into walls
damage tank eww

wait ima js do the dreamers in my steel soul so I can check %
Tf you mean ew
lock in
Hot take: primal aspids are NOT that annoying, just get nailmasters bla bla and they are so easy to kill
eww
Marmu

Ts ragebaiting
There are a lot worse enemies than primal aspids
the way you speak has to be satire im fully convinced
damage tanking isn't fun
The flying crystal mfs at crystal peak
Marmewwww
lowkenuinely
Yea i hate those
Am i bad at baiting
Shit
Hi
Hi
ls go

I remembered weaversong on the way to herra
I got weaversong during my final charm run through for 100%
SoB is below mid
what last 1 notch charm should i use for P5? i just beat sisters of battle
there r 112%
Nmg
No way
Wonder where heavy blow would rank if it was a damage boost to narts tbh
like an str equivalent 1.5x
I did 100% before Silksong though for that achievement
soul eater
oops didnt read your name
I didn't do Grimm troupe or godmaster yet
Im kinda in a rush cus I rlly dont want to lose sub 7 pace too
nmg or grubsong if you don't use narts
soul eater is a 4 notch charm
nmg or grubsong
or toa if ur cool
Hawk
ooo stag nest
toa ๐คข
nailmasters glory?
bruh there is no bench is stag nest
terra doesnt know the toa tech
thorns of agony?
more people should run thorns imo
Also I gotta say, doing seer ascension before fighting radiance for the first time was an amazing experience cause by then I still only vaguely understood the lore and then she drops everything about the villain and I go snd I'm like "OH ITS HER THATS WHO THE MOTH TRIBE WAS TALKING ABOUT"
pls dont throw this pace man
Why 
funny
how much essence does w defender give
Radiance is such a cool antagonist
350
300
367
its kin that gives 450
they all give 300 except lost kin which is 400
i'll go TOA untill the next bench
HOW DO I DO TRAPPED BENCH SKIP
true
Dreamshield, glowing womb and sharp shadow must be s-tier
bingy will fix you
dreamshield kinda does have aura tho
meh ima js bench
maybe bingy after r5
No
its either that or speedrunning or i dont play anymore hk
Bingy now
r5 to destroy mental health
bingy to recover it
you'd be lucky if i knew how to leave kings pass
rate da build chat
get someone to do hand brain bingy with you so you can learn overworld
sharp shadow / 100
You can do it lune
after true completion

hello lune
LMAO
Bro got the tram pass
alr we got herrah chat
Herrah was my first dreamer surprisingly
oh lune
I got a new pb today, made it to markoth no-hit, but then took 7 hits to him & zote 
Hitcount pb is still 5 tho
oh shit ggs
you should learn the epic lune cool markoth strat
with a markoth distance you should almost be there right
not mine at all but who cares
whoever said pv fight is a dance was right
Not really tbh
I'm not nearly consistent enough
he shifts his tempo some times
fair fair
LOL
I beat him with a damage build
What are you even running
I have 0 nail upgs
ARE WE DEADASS
he is easy kind of
what spells do you have?
Im going for a sub 5 but Ive lost sub 5p ace so Im going ofr sub 7
dedark shadesoul abbyss shreik
do you have a route?
Are you just speedrunning
going of memory
then you can practically hitless him with 0 difficulty
afterr this one ima run it
bro the enemies take 4 hits
spell
Why are you talking in discord when you're speedrunning
hmmm i have all upgrades so i cant do it that way
guys isnt it crazy to think that hk only took 3 people and 40k $ to make ?
fr
how many soul containers you have?
ok collector done
2
What's epic lune cool markoth strat
can get third once I clai mgrubs
getting hit
2 full or 2 fragments?
should i buy sk guys?
yay
okay disclaimer, my markoth performance would make you cry
HOWEVER, i think it looks pretty cool
can u unequip all the other charms theyre holding back ur sharp shadow potential
I dont use it for dmg at all
I'll have to try that out
Since I've never taken any damage at any point in hk before so I wouldn't know what it's like
which do I buy
This charm build..
resting grounds
optimal
oh good you should try it
That one fucker in deepnest
Valid
Remember the hive/waterways grub in between
Never forget that guy
It can't be that bad 
wait you gotta have the map for the place to see I think
Just do it based on memory gg ez
Oh..
IM TOO POOR FOR ALL MAPS
It's gotta be that one bitch in crossroads
you can just remember where the ones you dont have map for are
2 bitches in crossraods
its sick isnt it.. right right ?!
this is your 3rd playthrouh right
10/10 would fall again
thinking about doing it in r5 makes me sick
but it does look amazing
im doing it for r5
no nkg pufferfish pogo though ๐
holy shit why are they so off bro
Imagine that's your only hit of the whole run
ok ima do colo 3
I don't remember them being there
if its markoth i guarantee im taking another 10 hits
one is elevator the other one is peak exit
There's only like 5 grubs in crossroads and those CAN'T be them
imagine diving into the void in absrad as only hit
hmmmmmmmmm
It sounds like you've done this
colo 3 build
Literally me
oops the r5 trauma is resurfacing
gamer
no but unironically, the dmg that gives me will save more runs than it'll lose
wait let me get third pg
im really consistent at it and really inconsistent at the rest of markoth
so i need the gimmick
Oh, fair
one day i'll learn markoth
I wanna be pinged if you get a 1-hit run with that being the only hit tho
LMAO sure
dont die in col 3
Me omw to search for how to cheese absrad climb (you can't):
oc c3 trust
lemme guess i cant use fury of the fallen in a radiant fight cant i?
i had the hardest time there
oh good news I have the r5 2x attempt lined up next time I play it
Lost my 100 hour save cuz of that
so that'll be fun
ooooo
gl
surely with a break inbetween isnt good ?
never could get it done before i got unbreakable strength and nmg
or is it better
I'm scared to try it though since I got hit to hornet 1 last time
you need mods yeah
I got both
shiii
in ab, do you do the hornet stunlock
alr third ngrade
she always just gets shrieked into me
I know how to do the stunlock but the shriek is so sketchy
I can get pure nail but i want to claim all grubs at once
left shriek for it?
oh shit maybe thats why im bad at it
i only found out about that very recently from grey
3 pv kills yet will do more before p4
Y'all is there any way i can bring back a corrupted save file
Ehh who needs pure nail anyway
check the backups
just tell where you dont have map of we can tell which grub is left
Skill issue
Ok
of course it will be unclear o/w you can just wiki
heres da build
Ok
lol
atleast this part is easy sit on a chair and go hunt hoppers

Dead char
