what did armored squits do
wait I missed it
you have some modded bugs I think
maybe

this reminds me of @plush ocean
you missed the hitboxes being bad
when do you even have to deal with them
04r collector
You can be very consistent with them
he wont let me :(
Trust me, i beat him attuned
just spawn cap and deal with only primal aspids if you hate squits so much
Aspids over baldurs 👀
gotta feel alive somehow
too late but i should've
Marmu

never too late to do it again
correct
So armored squit is marmu
im not aspid stacking 
why not
out of how many attempts
because im bad ✅
strength, mop, qs, and soul catcher
every singel time I dash its either too early or too late ;-;
yipee
and decent charms
Y’all do I join the cult of Trobbio?
does pv have the same health in ascended as attuned?
nah
now I'll go get hk ending
and then after that I'll get zote out of colo and then do gpz and white defender
that'll give me enough essence for awakened dnail and then I'll do white palace
the only atk I cant predict is the dark tentacles thing bc it looks too similar to daggers ;-;
and then radiance and then 112% and then godhome :D
and jumping takes 10 yrs
How do i fight soul master
dash and pray
uh
be sparing with ur atks- u can rlly only hit once with ur nail every time he stops
🐐
and use spells every time
idk he's become too intuitive for me I don't remember the logic of how to fight him
:o

Rhe game was you were given an angled half pipe and 3 balls
The half pipe can be rotated 180*
The goal is to get one of 3 balls to land inside a hole near the edge of the play area
why does shade dash not work specifically when I try to dash through a 3 slash
So what I did was place the ball near the entrance of the half pipe so it won't accelerate as much
Anyway I won, then the celebration was too overstimulating

67 percent 
??
jumping takes 10 bajillion yrs
too long for black tenacle atk
:(
every single time I tried jumping to dodge it I get hit
hk ending acquired
yay
just 4 more endings to go :D
gotta do true ending, p5, and shroom dude
oh and sealed siblings
dash away and shade soul / heal
but jumping is alot betterr
double jump > dash > pogo > m1
well it can only happen from 33% hp remaining onwards
bc every time I see it I think of daggers so I get close to him
but you just look at his chest, if his cloak reveals white then its dagger
but then the tentacles come out and it's too late
if it reveals black its tendrils
Stay at a distance then
I shoudl probably pay attention to the body more
they also have a different audio cue but idk how to describe audio in text
but tendrils and daggers getting mixed up is super common
I think legit all I need to do is stop mixing those up and I'm good
bc I'm consistently getting hit only once to 33%
now
when yk hes around 33% hp just really pay attention to his cloak (black vs white) and if you prefer it, the audio cue
if I get hit >once it's usually bc pv decides to 3 slash 3 times in a row or smth
;-;
Me and my bro (I’m Gojo, my bro is Sukuna)
I cant tell when he's 33% until he does the atk ;-;
you start to get a feel for it eventually
but either way, start looking for it once he does daggers for example
just heal or m1, i dont bother spelling it or anything
ddark is fine i just prefer to save soul for bindings habit
ic
Oh btw if you're gonna heal do it only once
if you are missing hp then always heal during stagger
atleast to get use to it
and niche thing but if you heal on stagger, dont do it in the dead centre of the arena
I've been hoping that I could do it in the masks i have xd
this is literally gonna be me
i mean you can but you risk taking damage
ya
bc of a bug
...wait what
I thought it was just high risk bc middle
Nah healing is safe on stagger
But
If you dont wake him up from the stagger and hes 66% hp or less, he can tp and focus in the middle without checking if you're there
Its a weird bug
what 😭
Pv isn't a bug
It's void
specifically the middle
Smh
Its really unknown but tis true
Yup

huh
Because you'd wake him up manually, but when i was specifically trying to get it then maybe like 1/5 or smt
Btw
p1-2 ab is 3 lifeblood per bench right?
Is it possible to heal after every attack? I feel like it's only the dash that ruins it
wait is it every time it follows up with focus or only sometimes when it focuses
8 binding is yes
No
I think that if he focuses after a naturally woken stagger then its guaranteed to be in the middle
could be wrong though my memory is shit
why does it do that 😭
I have no clue
game files wher
spaghetti code
it might be like
after stagger it just
nvm wifi sucks
It has a mind of it's own
resets some sort of variable that guarantees focus to be in the center
Ironically
bbbbut pure vessel is supposed to be pure
After long enough you just realise the code is weird and theres no explanation
Howling wraiths / shriek for ex
[insert PV fsm]
lmao fr
Just get higher fps
hahaha
His boss fight shows otherwise
what even is pv
Pure vessel
It's hk before he got corrupted
oh
Pure Vessel is called Pure Vessel because they're untainted by the infection
right
There was no Pure Vessel
oh
do grub rescues risk a 112 completion?
so he still has a mind
They all have a Mind
a will to break
They all have a Will to break
You need them for it yeah
Technically, I guess. TK's will didn't break
but knight doesnt
The Knight does
oh
Voidheart, Steel Soul Jinn, Winged Nosk
ig he's just strong af
"Under the bearer's will"
oh
It is very strong, yes
huh
According to Ari Gibson, the game's protagonist is genderless.
It's good
still calling knight a he 😭

It's a force of habit atp
It happens
It used to happen to me too, I ain't blaming
wait what abt hk and hornet
Hornet is a dude
Hornet is called "The Gendered Child"
Trust me
Take a guess
there's no way those 2 dont have a gender
Hornet is gendered
Also yes, THK doesn't have a gender
The knight isn't
also stated by TC in a different interview
oh right I forgot abt that
none of the vessels are gendered

Do they have a mind to gender
erm actually hornet is nonbinary trust

Perchance
You can't just say perchance
Mario is a really fucking cool guy
well yes but my statement sounds much weirder with that wording 
It's more accurate as well 
We dunno' if a random vessel have gender, but they sure don't have sexes
is the only reason hornet isnt a vessel is her mom is spider lady?
and not white lady?
They weren't voided
She's not void
oh
If the Vessel's eggs weren't thrown in the abyss, They'd have been born proeprly
Wasn't dropped into the abyss
ooooooooooooh
The fetuses didn't get to be born, they got spawncamped
see this is random pieces of lore I wouldve never known ;-;
Yeah and their corpses got filled with void
They're like aborted fetuses
It's stated in the game
Pale king farming xp like crazy

Yup
where 😭
y people devate
It faced the Gendered Child? She's a fierce foe, strong in mind and body, striking reflection of her mother, though the two were permitted little time together.
I never begrudged the Wyrm's dalliance as bargain. In fact, I feel some affection for the creature birthed.
If your paths were ever to align, I imagine you might gain yourself a powerful ally.
where does that get stated 😭
HOLLOW KNIGHT HAS NO LORE
"It faced the Gendered Child? She-"
oh
Erm, Ari Gibson said-
According to Ari Gibson, only William thinks HK has no lore. HK is all lore.
[Source](#off-topic message)
oh it's cuz I never went to her after getting the king thing lmao
he’s lying to you
You should check them out. Her dialogues are wholesome
What
Wow
I can't believe you're william afton
I dont wanna go all the way to queen gardens.............
why did you do that to the children Sugeetam
Valid
xd
Yt exists for a reason 
...oh right
I could do that with p5 cutscene too but like
then p5 is less exciting
Wym
if I wait until I finish p5 to watch the ending it's more satisfying to beat p5
and exciting
Fair
minor problem tho
I much prefer EtV without Flower
I'm doing silksong after p4 not p5
It doesn't make me want to bash my head against a wall
bc 112%
and silksong is right there 😭

wait does silksong follow p5's ending
If you can beat all Pantheons, you technically can beat P5
Uh
ok well I dont get to unlock absrad until the end
Can you come to #hk-general for a second?
Gdvhdxhte
Gdvhdxhte
Gdvhdxhte
Go to sleep you three
Our writing is fire ✍️🔥
Cant I live in Australia
I live in the hollow knight country
Damn
can you talk good about me with hornet

Who knows…maybe I’m secretly zote
Perchance
Nah but fr what time is it in Australia dude, Here it's 11 PM @gloomy vapor
Around 3pm in aus
Yeah 3-4 pm
Damn
its 3:30
Kinda depends where you are in Australia ig
If you're really zote we're gonna have a problem
What's your problem with Zote
He kills me alot :(
Uhhhhhh…am sorry
Congrats
Oh and I can confirm we have primal asphids down here
yeah i was js lazy to give the flower to the godseeker
Benchwarp 
wasn't that patched?
Good god....
Not for the Grave
And ig we have a Bilewater 0_0
the only thing i have left to do in hk is p5ab
hmmmm
do i wanna torture myself?
like wha
The speedruns are fun from what I've heard
nah im gud
Well if you go off of what the game recognises
not a fan of speedruns personally
r5 is left
No
yes
what's r5
Nightmare fuel
reaaally fun
i get hit at vengefly king gng
I am in my evil arc rn
Anti-jolly genio 



La creature
lol i think you should play slow one time you need to remember where stuff is
maybe I shouldn't do 2 bindings at once for p2+
marmu into nosk into bv is lethal
True do all 4
Go big or go home
I want my fights to end within 1h
If hollow knight pvp
Who got better gear knight or hornet
I dunno how to calculate dmg
Who would be generally better
obblobbles are infinitely harder than mantis lords my god
current state of my hk room randomizer
blow them up with abyss shriek
neat
fireball multi hits are more satisfying tho
flukenest:
is absrad bet able with 6 hearts alone
yes
Yes
but not recommended
if you're good at dodging sure
flukenest is a boring numbers go brr charm tbh
also annoyingly niche in its uses
I wish I didn't know what the charm meta was ;-;
go get more notches then
i have max notches
now if I make significant changes to my build my insides scream bc ik im not doing anywhere near the most damage I could be doing
im never dropping quickslash
quickslash my goat
also will say mop and longnail stink imo
waste of notches
im trying for the first time lumafly and pale court
this is gonna be very exciting
Mayhaps
also kinda hate how im not finding healing windows in like
gpz
everything else is easy its just him
also god tamer, annoying fight imo due to basically needing to just pogo and ddark
after much (zero) testing I have found a good p5 build
no quickslash
what on earth
have u even beaten p5?
how are you even okay
what even is that build for gods sake
maybe
LMAO
I switch to flukes for galien
WHO MADE YOU THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO GO OVERCHARMED
its hitless
ohhhhhh
ln though??
watch me beat p5 after already deleting skong 100%
I didn't know what to put on
anyway i wonder
sshadow 
I was running dream wielder and compass 12 minutes ago instead
whats the point?
then just dont do p5
too bad
OMG
i feel like not getting Embrace The Void is just
I BEAT BOUNDLESS INFINITY
not the 112% experience
oops didn't switch for galien
i mean how helpful is nmg too? surely you could swap out both for like MoP or perma fluke
gg
ggs
I want the dash slash mainly
or even nmg+ln for strength
I like nmg especially when I don't have other nail charms because it is better range
strength isn't that good here imo because nail binding
i mean 20 damage is still good
eh idk ln + nmg seems weird to me but theres no other good charms
eater + catcher + twister is hilarious though
it is very funny
i cant imagine it being optimal at all but it is funny
22 soul per hit or whatever
not really
but you were saying 2 notch charms dont have a use in end game and i love twister
well I missed it because they don't have use so I never run it
I still run flukes in some sections at least because it is very strong
sections 1 and 3 mainly
well first 10 because boring
then 16-20 for galien
If I were recommending charms for nail binding it would not be this
@tulip narwhal
HI oswald
@sick heath tails
suscat
Heartbreaking
Hamburger
why are you so 𝓕𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂
Gathering Swarm is underrated ngl

thats the max limit
Ok
hegemol is kicking my ahh😭
froggy i did radiant 1.0
it was all climb bro
spent 1 hour learning flickers with wireless headphones since i was used to a audio q (cue) and got it first climb
idc bro asc oc fury harder than radiant 1.0 cfm
Good job
time for krypton
does 2x SS deal more dmg than 3x shriek
its the same i think
80 vs 90 with shaman
60 vs 60 without
run lost to a misinput on nkg this is so sad
i am responsible for you beating radiant 1.0 you’re welcome
true
steady body is so good man
true
Hi sigmas
Are you talking about individual hits or full spells?
WHY DO I HAVE MONARCH WINGS AND MOST SPEELS N STUFF BUT I STILL NEED 1 MILLION TUTORIALS FROM THTA ONE GUY
“Hey everybody thanks for stopping by” THAT GUY
Skill issue tbh
finaly someone who gets it
Man now I wish I didn’t “accidentally” kill the bug
dude my friend killed him with the vengeful spirit on her first play through just to be more cruel😭
is sk disc the new hk disc or is hk disc back to the classic one now
Nice forsaken pfp
-# I’m just kidding I read your bio
Pls don’t execute me
Huehehhehe
Fatcish
Hi sinfaZ

Whp are even makin these accs I can’t-
im in the colosseum of fools should i do the trial of the warrior

He's fun until he isn't
Zote is the true god of hollownest
hey shura
hi krystals
"stockholm syndrom"
pretty much
enjoy
Have fun
I wanna do an extreme room/item randomiser so i shall
Good luck!
Literally js discovered these accounts and I’m shitting my pants what is thsi AGAGAGBA
LMAO
I was watching Rin Penrose's playthrough, and this thing popped up after her False Knight fight. What the heck is this thing. I've literally never seen it
Someone tell the radiance to be active again I wanan join the drama
mace bug
poor mace bug
Bro plrollx facing the other way
Wowie. I must've just booked it out of the room every time
I tried to kill it in almsot all my walk throughs back then
Nkg is fun at first because the patterns are the same. So you are learning. Slowly.
Gpz is not fun at first because you think his attacks are very random and unfair (which they are sometimes)
Overtime nkg becomes boring. However. Zote doesn't have that kind of issue. You can learn his attacks and even when he changes their patterns. You are hit with even bigger dopamine of "OHHH NOW I UNDERSTAND YOU SON OF A BITCH" Its like if nkg kept doing attacks from both forms. Not just the second.
thats why ikg is fun
The switch up adding the "YOU SUN OF A BI" just threw me off my chair
Let's be honest we ALL hated and loved gpz at some point 🤞💔
i dont (i never fought them )
Imma be honest I have 200 houes in this game and never fought him 😭💀
Inferno king grimm looks so fun yea
Do em radiant
fuckh nah
Mf was listening to the soldiers stories of p5 gpz 🙏
aikg?
yes
good boss
well im eaating
but puffer is boring without dmaster
boring?
theres no strat for it
Blue berry flavour grimm
why is flukenest actually the hardest boss ever without any gear
thats why charmless aikg is miserable
some bs fr
😭 WHY
Because fuck them flukes
i accidentily got this chud in my room rando and i do not want to deal with it
flukemarm* and because you dont 1 shot minions
just started a new playthrough
forgot how fun mantis lords are lol
Just do r04 flukemarma
rng fight
qslasg strength qfocus sshadow cause i need to heal alot
Abyss shriek like six times with shaman stone and it's done
Here's the funny thing
withoutany gear
Oh
yeah no dmaster is gonna make pufferfish miserable to do hitless
Pogo
They don't have shit in rando
“no gear”
No upgrades no spells no shit
also sshadow is 
Pogo
I wanna join. The convo but I barely understand whats going on 
idk it cooks for some reason
One guy is getting fucked over in room randomizer by getting flukemarm without any gear
you can see my puffer strat https://youtu.be/_mWVvP3leo0
still quite new to him so would love any tips to optimise ttk or to better dodge the pufferfish. i do know pogoing first dash on 2nd/3rd stage is more dmg i just wasnt tryna risk it for consec but other that that help is appreciated.
but without dmaster you cant do it
well you can emulate it but afaik its just luck
The other is getting their shit fucked by blueberry grimm
Lmao blueberry grimm
i would like to add the runback is like 5 minutes
for like NO reward other than flueknest💔
What if there was dream king grimm
is ee
wait is it full random or just room random
wat build do i go
More than enough it's necessary for the last charm notch from salubra
room
guh
All random most fun js not in steelsoul ngl
you are fuyucked
hollow purple grimm
i have it mapped out im chillin what yall mean
wtf
strength qslash dmaster is all that really matters
Voided Grimm
sbody is nice, sprintmaster i hear is nice, shaman/qfocus/mop work
flukemarm is in the bottom right
What the fuck
Is this a war plan
einstein couldnt replicate this
that vid is a little old but thats basically what i used though
Mfs thinking the bilewater runback is the worst when THIS is here 😭
So for the first time in all my p5 I lost a run to nkg
no sbody though cuz idk mustve not fit in well
how??
Chronic skill issues
Sprintmaster with dashmaster are like a rocket when u use both of em
I pressed the wrong button
rip
Cast instead of dash
bro i lost a p5 run to fucking absrad on the PLATFORM phase
It was nail binding as well it was almost so good
i cant
1st to oro and mato
2nd to uumuu
with that silly build?
the wizard build
Yes, first attempt with it
oh wow
whats the order of r5eb
im guessing charm hardest, mask easiest but idk abt soul vs nail
Charm binding hardest the others idk
charm > soul > nail > shell probably
Never seen a kingsoul user
only useful for wp and yk..
Nail and soul seem similar
With nail being harder atn
id probably be better at soul just having done f5
but i think soul would overall be harder w/o flukes
Nail def sounds worse for r5 purposes yea
ugh i needa finish r5 its not even that hard but kinda boring
Now what the hell does F stand for
fury r5
oh ok
r5 is so boring when it isn't easy
when is it easy 
Pale king
sooooooooo what does one need to do to beat r1-5
And when it is easy it is mildly fun
How many radiant bosses in a row
42
r5 is hard but MUCH more boring imo when grinding it
i think speedrunning (not for top top top times) would be really fun though
yeah i could see that
I should try radtheon of markoth
and for those top times would be miserable because relies on boss rng and the most minute precision
Btw what's the worst boss in your opinions
Marmu
uh
p5 varients included or no
excluding marmu its probably no eyes tbh
Included
no eyes
Thank you the clanker smasher
You mean superultratuffsigmarizzlord67
Nuh uh
i like oblobbes might be the worst
Is this my lil cousin's roblox username
No that would be j*b ch67 1.5x speed slop
Makes sense
worst bosses 1. oblobbles 2. no eyes 3. markoth
Markoth is wose than no eyes imo
Chommmmm
No eyes isn't bad you are
Atleast markoth has fucking gameplay yknow what iam saying
It's ass but it's gameplay
Oh def. But yknow What's worse than a boss being hard and annoying?
A boss being a whining bitch teleporting all over the place with the worst arena in the entire game
Ass runback?
The mini boss in the city of tears is harder than soul master 🙏
hmm
soul warrior my goat
Husk sentry
then who else
its hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm radiance
the husk sentry
no crystal guardian mentioned?
Guy with shield
Where's the crystal guardian ragebaiter when you need her
i could fall asleep and crystal guardian would still somehow die
ah
Also I saw oblobbles mentioned it is not the worst boss no oblobbles slander
yes it is
i hope they blow up
No it isn't
wat is the cutest thing in hollow knight
Y'all delusional if you say marmu ofc it's salubra
willoh
ur delusional lemme find it rq
underrated
Very cute
wait which is htat
Tall neck gal in queen station
oh
gimme one sec to find mine
Actually it's baby elderbug
That's ugly AF
u are to be BANISHED
Js facts tho
Maybe the small grimmkins are up there I forget
Dashmaster is lowk really good for gpz
Looks like a blob fish to me
No?
i can never like a grimmkin because of how annoying it was to get the flames for nkg
Yes
Fakeout attack is now easily dodgeable everytime
Of only dashmaster was a good charm it would be so fun
choom
Ok it's not the best for gpz and all but that was a good enough reason for me to say it's great
It's peam
It's my fav charm. It's just useless on fights that's all.
you have my favorite name ever
Is sbody good for rantheons
Pfp does the heavy lifting in that regard.
No, just run charmless
What about r3
It's top 3
Bet
whats the worst pantheon
guys what do i do after white palace
Use this build for P3 imo
lol
Do u are have kingsoul
2
It just feels so weird
Most of the bosses there are forgettable
no i need the other frag from the white lady 🥹🥹🥹
Alr go get that
carried by mantis lords
i havent beat traitor lord yet is that a bad sign
i physically dont know where to go in queens gardens
I HAVENT EVEN FOUND CLOTH
I HAVE NO CLUE WHERE SHE (is it a she ???) IS
on the ground
gl gmm
Hiiii heu
THANK YIU found her
e am doing well ty
guess what, I had an unknown session where I didn't cry 
hru btw
what is this place
kay so where the fuck is traitor lord then
bro wants leaks
|| Queens Garden ||
Genuinely WHAT is the Pantheon of Hallownest bro 💔✌️
HELL
I can tell bro 💔
i havent beat patheon of the master r yall ok
Dont continue. Leave while you still can.
Markoth is fraudulent
Holy shit
GGG
Maybe harder than beating unknown
Im gooood
theres an area in fog canyon iirc
i cant remember how i went there either but it was there
Idk cro 💔
fog canyon?
Goog
isnt it queens?
Im trolling steam by not rolling into 4 digits in gd hour count
i havent played Hk in like a year but
yeah i misworded the message
we ball
Im at 999.9h
i meant that the entrance to qg is from fog canyon

ahhh
happens
It is
you still have time for a sub 1k achievemtn 
thought soo yeah
Surely
Im like 100 seconds off hitting it
I can beat ts2 in that time i fi 1 attempt it
Highkirkenuinely bro pantheon of hallownest is gonna cost me like 2 controllers and 12 hours of my life ill never get back
possible
what pantheon did you currently beat?
I just beat Pantheon of the Knight, so rn im on Pantheon of Hallownest
i’m good hbu
I recommend you try to practice doing each boss to learn to beat them consistently. Try doing some of the bosses radiant too.
Maybe
I dont really have trouble on the first half, my current roadblock rn is Winged Nosk
i have an important question, who is more annoying, Markoth or primal aspis
Primal Aspids 1000%
Fuck those guys
Markoth is a fraudulent bum whos easily beaten
Im doing pretty good
radiant markoth made me want to choke him. I can deal with primal aspids (unless its the f*cking collector with no way to oneshot them).
Getting beat by a fraudulent bum is crazy
what about winged nosk?
go
Shut up i only had 1 encounter with the guy and was unfamiliar with his moveset
He DOES seem pretty similar to vengeful kingfly though so it shouldnt be TOO long
<@&283547423706447872>
a little late there buddy
@shrewd meadow
Hi throw
yuri marriage in SVE
Ok throw
FINALLY FUCKING DID RAD OBLOBBLES WOO!!
nice
Love wins!!! 

do ya'll still consider the pale king to be a tyrant? (excluding him being a terrible father figure ofc)
Damn bro absolute cinema
if we dont take the abyss stuff into consideration id still say hes a cowardly piece of shit for hiding his palace away from hallownest instead of continuing to push against the infection and just leaving the kingdom that he apparently cared so much for to rot away
and even if he thought thk would ward it off forever, its still weird that he wouldnt keep ruling afterwards
Hol night
Sooo What's the strat for r2 marmu
No bro 💔
He always leaves me on low health and leaves zote to finish me off
Not getting hit
r2?
@foggy sable
Hitless p2 i think
Abyss shriek then DDark iirc
marmu is in p2?
guh
Yes
fym iirc
any tips to defeat the nosk
P2 different
There's a safe spot on the left side of the arena
Yea it's a much bigger arena
time to do expirimenting
just kill it
really?
doesnt nosk crawl side to side
Abyss shriek then hit the rebound should work though
He's very straightforward but generally i recommend staying in the middle so you can see what he's doing clearly
top tier advice
nah just beat it
i killed it with 7 fps on school potato computer(browser version of hk)
thanks
he does but for some reason it doesnt touch your hitbox if you hug the wall
true
Uhhh
did i say something wrong by accident
