Bro wth
What abt weaverlings
yeah weavers work better than soul catcher
never touched this sh- i mena charm....
or shaman stone
Hey
just dont get hit to preserve soul
i never used this once
Its crismas
i dont understand ppl who "save soul" on full hp to "heal later"
no need to heal if the enemy dies in 0.5 seconds
from your spells
š
Soul catcher is a solid charm
Ok use no soup challenge
i'm playing it off, i'm just regular person.
iām bein so fr kingsoul is underrated
Comparable to twister actually fairly well
soul catcher is trash lil bro
ok
Kingsoul + thorns not allowed anything else no spells no nail no minions
just put kingsoul on last
No bro carefreee
quick slash
If you use less than 70% of your soul on spells catcher is better
Carefreee
carefree melody my goat
We cannot YEA
Bru
Anyrad 2
Only done with carefree
As far as the defense charms go quick focus is best by far
the only time not using quickslash is acceptable is against radiance variants
carefree excels at double dmg
overcharmed but it works because it leaves all other charms having plenty space to be used.
it negates both
Anyrad only done with carefree
yeah
which is y kingsoul is goated
magnetite dice is amazing
change to dodge + crit damage?
Or if you don't have steady body
Sad that they don't last forever because it need to be turned into void heart for endings
do u not know how to walk
i only have like 70% game completion
mods
so
Quick slash no steady body is only fine
Right i forgot about this
i did 104%
ok yk what im making a charm tier list
isnt that hk?
soul catcher goes in F tier
ye
ye
Yes I feel like quickslash is better only with steady tho
wait u can get more than 100 in silksong?
i only have 104% because i don't dare to touch very hard challenge
It isin't that bad
sybau
getting there
respectfully ofc
how tho
I don't remember how much percentage I have I probably would have gotten 112% I am more focused on Godhome stuff
Yes it needs steady to be good
peak
ok i might be stupid
i dont even have 9th mask
LOL
i lowkey dont feel like doing flower quiest
What is that background
hidden dreams
Hidden dreams
idk
Hidden Dreams
Soul catcher is solid and I recommend it as a 2 notch slot sometimes in lategame
Aw hail nahhhhh
i used to use voidheart
buddy NO
i prefer godhome and hidden dreams now tho
Either that or spell twister
Aw hail nahhhhhh
godmaster*
Not a bad idea
š
Wdym āused toā
Yes
like
You canāt stop using it
oh
LMFAO)AWUYDWGUYAWDGUYTAWDTFGAD
Ah ok
It is decent soul for healing with an open 2 notch
imagine you could unequip void heart
i used to use the voidheart charm
I use Grimm troupe I might be insane
i prefer kingsoul
Dafuq
LOL
Unless you do charm binding it's impossible to remove Void Heart
Aināt no way
Hi
itās a good charm
Stalwart shell and quick focus is an op combo
it really boils down to whether it increases descending dark i-frames
yea
thats what i needa know
It breaks all 1 damage fights
I don't think it does that
alr
stalwart shell + quick focus + grubsong
That's why I would put it in B tier
against the final boss
thatās itās use
making it an A tier
It need to have a decent amount of uses to be in A tier
i find it funny that if you played as hornet, hollow knight would literally be impossible
meanwhile the knight solos all of silksong with ease
no literally
in hollow knight the bosses literally give you impossible attacks
wait
nvm hornet can parry
but 0 endings LOL
oh yeah
Fury is the second best charm if you can use it but isn't hitless technically so
cross stitch
cross stitch buffs when
Which attacks you mean stuff like Radience beam and Traiter Lords shockwave
yuh
broke ahh mf
Doesnāt hornet have a silk skill that acts like shade cloak?
yeah but no endings
S tier for pros, B tier for the average player
just dont get hit
that balances out
mid a tier
buddy
Has anyone here seen the land of storms before?
if u have a skill issue that doesnāt mean the charm is worse
i have
š
ik
im not ranking charms at FULL potential
like
in a general sense
for example
so ur ranking charms without ranking charms
You got every binding on p5?
not on current save
I remember thinking this charm was an ed sheeran reference when I first heard its name
u see, i wanted to see land of dtorms
Id say closer to D
so i downloaded a file with p5 all bindings and farmed for land of storms
bro shape of unn and baldur shell is such a s
no
you turn into a snail š
A tier
C or B
Oh I have a list
Only ever used shape of unn in the eternal ordeal
imo c
shape of unn is lowk underrated for 2 notches and basically lets you heal everywhere + the synergy with quick focus is lowk goated
It's useful in AnyRad
baldur is A-B tier due to limited usage and reliance on other charms
wait serious question
wtf is your "actively bad"
thatās TOGETHER
uhm⦠no?
Worse than nothing
flukenest below shaman stone
Charms that nerf you
bc shaman stone buffs all spells
uhm... yes
flukenest gives a major buff to one
wayward compass isnt in S tier
It's not useful except meme builds
omg wait
Is steam being weird for anyone else? I cant add anything to my cart lmao
Flukenest is broken and I am saying it literally
It is
WHY is sprintmaster in bad
what's the context for this list
mf how is sharp shadow thorns and SPRINTMASTER bad???? i understand some but these 3 genuinely make no sense
I'd rather have nothing on most of the time
I don't see it being good if you have a dash
LOL
you are very strange
Thorns remove iframes and provide almost 0 value
Somewhat useful in radkoth
erm actuallyā¦
Or doesn't remove but takes off
bro just gave up on dream shield š
Uses up
Never tried so I wouldn't know
Sprint master messes with speed, throns with I frames and sharp shadow with dash
Who thinks dreamwielder is underrated?
it makes u faster
thatās the fucking point
Did you use elegy then?
I mean never tried the fight
D
i mean
It's horrible
too many charm notches
bro after the charm does what its meant to do (we cant have that)
nah joni in C is fine
it could have been incredibly useful in bosses with no time to heal
Only usable in certain gpz fights
Which most of the time is a negative in fights
if it didnt eat up 1,000,000 charm notches
which is y itās in C
Having one niche usage is not C
if u cant control ur character jus say that
And what they do is bad
Especially when it nerfs you every other fight
joni is legit only good with lifeblood in very certain situations
D
āchat i cant adapt to speed changes so iām sayin the charm is badā
No idea that gave you that impression
do we know what this is?
actively bad tier due to speed changes
wait so why is dashmaster in b then? its litterally just the same as sharp shadow but doesnt do damage and does the annoying ass down dash š
higher being from ancient civilization
his aura
Dreamwielder is the best one notch charm imo
It is decent on some fights like absrad
interesting take
better pic
sooo why isnt sharp shadow up there
well
Because it isn't decent on any fights
and dashmaster is?????
yes it is lol
Nmg, steady body, dream weilder
You fill up 2/3 of your soul meter in one swing and it comes out so fast to where you can spam it frequently
WAIt
I JUST SAW DASHMASTER
pure vesse:
i forgot
GOLEE DASHMASTER IS TRASH
how could i forget the goat
steady is lwky overrated
ever heard of walking
Dashmatser is pretty bad but so is sshadow
Also dreamwielder makes rad umuu trivial
sharp shadow is GOOD
in a way
Nice joke
steady body is good for people who used it their entire run, but if you just forgot to go to salubra and get any of her charms until later on you get useed to playing without it and its just like there for collo and certain pantheons
hiveblood is ahh
Name one of them
but HOW ahh
weāre acting like itās worse than dashmaster
They're both pretty bad
pure vessel
Steady body is a top charm
good for pop but like you can just use grubsong and deep focus for inf heals
When would I ever use sshadow instead of pogo
when ur caught off guard
Nope just get more damage with other punishes
thatās cool and all
So it's only good when you mess up
still good
its a larger dash and is just objectively better then dashmaster in every way
this is like saying cross stitch is bad bc u can counter with other methods
Hornet has a sprint, a grapple, and a dash attack, ||and yet sheās still slower than the knight when crystal dashing||
we also have sprinting and a dash attack, and mantis claw
The longer dash is a side grade anyway
dashmaster:
ur opinion is irrelevant
u think dashmaster is good
Except in this case the other methods aren't objectively better
spam and hope u win
Pogo is better than sshadow since soul plus strength buff plus close to boss for more damage quicker
It is, it is decent against a few bosses
name TWO
GUYS EVERYONE STFU THE BEST CHARM IS ||grubsong you goofy ass unbreakable strength/shaman glazer go shut you bitch ass up and equip this one notch w charm that will change your fucking life||
I equip every soul and spell charm in the game and dump shade souls into them
radiant bosses:
if you are bad enough you can just spam spells
on radiant?
idk
guys
oh charms
does anyone here ever use nail arts
deep focus + shape of unn makes you move better
sure ig
No 
once again name two
is the only thing that makes nail arts semi worth
Not as much as I do in skong
ur still silent lil bro
the only good one is dash slash
sshadow is the definition of mid
i didnt know you could fly with cyclone nail art so when i go back to howling cliffs (on my new save) ill get it
he think dashmaster is better than sharp shadow
fuck off you anti cyclone
wait
i didnt know that either
š
yes absolutely i hard agree
never speak again
i also think dmaster is just flat out one of the best charms
i realized in the oro and mato fight, like wait a fucking second
its just a lot harder to see its value
high c
name two uses
lemme get the image
why
okay so i might be fucking stupid 
Oblobbles absrad
buddy what
DASHMASTER AGAINST OBBLES?
mf got dashmaster when she was tryna get mantis claw and never took it off so isnt useed to normal dash š
lowk I might post the tierlist again. greyfire did I show u the rebalancing I canāt remember
benji never responded though. so Iām sad
btw
ftr this is what i think
order is a bit flimsier with the top of the sbody tier but
I did see it
ok ok
bro is doing delicate flower without consiquenses š
I remember saying something but I forget
someone suggested jonis 2 notches and also gives more hp from lifeblood
thoughts on dreamshield?
Yes?
great
buddy how
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO RESPECTS THE QUICK FOCUS SHAPE OF UNN SYNERGY
very ass
the duality of man
Moving fast
ok this has to be ragebait
Oblobbles is a fight about space
moving fast against obbles
cough cough
its like only margainally better i feel, but that's also just good
so y tf would u use dash over sprint
you move so fast its like the fast slug in a tub
that sounds dumb
15% and doesnt work in the sky and dashing is also an option in the game
And dashmaster let's you move in the air better
i fucking hate you guys
IN THE AIR AGAINST OBBLES?
so time to make new charms
R WE IN THE FUCKING METAVERSE??
Sprint master not working in the air makes it suck
Merry Christmas to you too
is this tuff chat
? They can float you know
y would u EVER be in the air against obbles
just wait until they come down
If they are in the air
u can get sniped in the air
name 3 bossfights that forces you to stay airborne
id be surprised if you can name 1
no mods
none
Not if you are good
there are always platforms
rad
um
guys make heavy blow 4 notches and it gives 60% damage boost but the downside is knockback
That just makes it take longer so it's harder
platforms.
where youre still constantly jumping around and chasing her
please don't say that...we are the closest of friends
yeah
not forced
u just choose to
there's an experience gap here im realizing
indeed
I think so
aside from dive its the only way to directly move down vertically so it can have use in the air and give opportunities that otherwise wouldnt exist
we are? ok
we all agree thereās a skill issue
go deepnest yourself
sprintmaster is ass explicitly because it doesnt work in the sky
which is where you are a LOT
And it isn't us with the skill issue
against bosses where ur grounded itās peak
cyclone art yay
saving shade cloak
okay
it's good maybe against dashless gpz
dashmaster
y would u waste it
If you spam the turbo button while walking you run anyways so sprintmaster has always been pointless to me
doesnt allow you to dash
I just use the turbo button
"Turbo mode" i say aloud
fuh you mean turbo button š
Is there a single boss where you don't jump often
and those are good traits
you can dash while using sprintmaster
"I'm goin turbo"
false knight
Except then there is a movement speed gap between air and ground walking speed
quite frankly
Which is bad
just stay on the ground
How would you even know you don't use charms
Crystal guardian
Just like use invincibility
Oh true but they're irrelevant anyway
I dabble in them
this is like genuinely one of the worst answers
teleporting bosses
probably like 2. oh you dont jump that often in wd but like being in the sky is very very common in this game
dodging
This is a great option
You jump alot on cg?
thats fair
Do you fw turbo mode
why would you š
i disagree with dodging though
with stuff like pogos and aggro
theres also spirit
Thatās what I did and hollow knight was easy I donāt get why people say this game is hard
which does cost souk
how tf are you gonna dodge the laserrs
you jump and pogo and are in the sky a lot
but its an alternative
this continues into modded
Ddark and shade dash..
this is a consistent trait of hk
Yeah they're stupid dw you're the right one morally and spiritually
i cant wait until bro sees enemies with helmets in a dlc
?????
:)
?
yw what
how the fuck are you gonna get ddark before killing crystal guardian- OHHH YOU MEANT PANTHEON
wrong game????
i dont wanna argue about dashmaster
xd
The turbo button
I like this charm set most
Ohhhh I must have missed that
i prefer kingsoul
You'd love turbo mode
stand proud sharp shadow
Makes u faster
I mean you donāt have to fight crystal guardian so its very easy to get ddark before
Kingsoul is bad and slow
Christmas is ruined
ok maybe lets step back
no lol
"never enough soul" ahh
i like me bench
Don't say that! Heroes will save christmas!
Connor rescue us š
Almost 1 cast per hit
From what fr
lowk profressional ragebait
why
Time to wait 20 seconds for an entire 4 soul
Why is there only one in nerfs the knightš
Dizzet
jonis and hiveblood
also why isnt thorns in the bottom tier
wait i forgot that it nerfs you too
hiveblood doesnt let you heal
it regenerates your hp
but still
you can gett it back faster w heals
that is situational
You can still heal with hiveblood on
you cant always heal
um
Maybe they want sharp shadow for christmas and then other kids won't have to get sharp shadow cuz he'll get all of them
i might be
Santa can't have too many of em
noo not on christmas
jolly not stupid
theres a sharp shadow in all ur stockings
I hope you suffer today
What about my glowing womb
i have an 8 hour shift on christmas day so i will
Or a trillion dollars
Or a magic wand
Nothing else for christmas
Or i won't be happy
Maybe a magic wishing well or star
lol
šæ dash master is A tier
that's some pretty good odds of being correct tho
unnamed is back
i never really left
Elegy is better than c tier so is nail master
Heart could probably go up
Dreamshield is way worse than everything else in that tier
Don't get why weavers is high if grubsong is low since they're like a duo but whatever
I think the rest is relatively fair
Boss lists are where it is at
my ranking (for a normal person who IS NOT DOING PANTHEON)
why are there two steady bodies
uh also dont ask why theres randomly double
Someone else do top 50 games fr
woah
doki doki ā¤ļøāš©¹
steady body so nice you had to add it twice
Doki doki goes hard
so is nailmasters glory and a few others
silksong
I don't even know if I've played 50 games
it wasn't out when I made the list
You got croc lowk
black flag what a game
Silksong would be like right above sekiro
bro is cooking with spongebob
i was thinking like i could get on its back but how am i gonna do any damage
That's my favorite assassins creed and I grew up on em
those mfs hides can deflect small arms fire
You just hold its mouth shut then start whooping his head
They are just super fun I played em on gamecube
i think my hand would break before its face
I saw a survivor island where they jumped on it then tied a knot around it
guys this is how you make a tier list, nobody has yelled at me about how its ass. (normal person not in godhome)
its skull is built to withstand the repeated force of what is essentially an oversized bear trap
Idk use ur head against theirs
Wait hold on
Grubsong not S tier
Unn not A tier
Weavers isn't as bad as the other ones in why
The F tier is based and I fw the D tier except elegy could go up and in the one above it that's a fair C tier man actually yeah I'll agree with you it's a mostly really good list
Minor disagreements
I think the second nmg is B but the first is A
That's fair
grubsong is mostly just a matter of how much you get hit and if you like to facetank or dodge
unn is good, lets you heal at almost every moment
i just hate all minion charms
grubberflys elegy would be good but its only when you have full masks and is lowk very niche uses
It's not niche if you're not getting hit or using fury
Cuz the range is good against all bosses
But fair
Gn oswald
Omg no it's only 9 pm
oswald its mid day
I can be up more
yes thats eepy time
no its 3 am
Not loading haha
I am living at 12:13pm rn
It is mid day oswald
gn @foggy sable
no u r foolish
if you think about it the initials of greyfire spell out gn but u just need to squint not with your eyes but rather the part od the brain that processes words / language
Didn't you say you were going to sleep over an hour agoš¤Ø
i didnt say id be succesful at that!

So oswald is the one that needs to sleep
So obviously discord is the answer
isnt it 3am for you gng
id say you are really good, but oro and mato are not that hard
@quartz cave
its true
haiii
Go to sleep so you can be merrier tomorrow
i think im in love
Hello
ITS 3AM BRO
šæ dash master goes to S
Hand reveal
idk bro its like watcher knights on crack š
WHY ARE WE SLEEPING ON COFFEE BEANS AS A SNACK
Aleep
OK BUT SNACK
Sleep
Of ALL things you could have as a snack
hmm i think ive posted my hand here before
sonny, you should go to sleep or else santa wont come with parents (imagine 80 year old jack black saying this)
Hand reveal for me
i think i posted a hand reveal like 4 years ago and someone told me they looked like fish fingers
bro
It's Christmas
Your hands just look like hands
Omg wait it is gonna be christm
Indeed it is 
In 3 hours
LMA I SAID PARENTS I MEANT PRESETNS
That'll be cool
idk it kinda stuck with me
Wait connor is it 9pm for you?
Virginia united states
i should lk test out like 15 charm builds in godhome this instant
oh yes lemme dox myself to my state rq
It's pretty big
And maybe flip over now that you're at it
I dont think i can or want to find him in virginia
bro just use heavy blow glowing womb defenders crest sporeshroom and unbreakable greed
what are yalls main charm builds
im not too far
Hello
Strength qslash shaman sbody nmg/mop
lune what is ur opinion on OG hkgen
quick focus (brand new run)
Usual R5 build
Strength shaman qs steady body mop
Oh wow the memories are flooding in
back in the glory days
it's either that or charmless lol
dih
Guys i can play the path of pain again after beating it? Pls answer
Mop>soul eater?
Fr lol
New save or modded only
mop consistency does a lot in r5
Yeah, soul is not that scarce of a resource
Sad
it does a lot for safety and makes it easy to not slip up
its in godhome and is called "pantheon of hallownest"
And that
soul catcher is absolutely a valid substitute for mop though
roumd 2 at (attempting) sleep gn
it's definitely good enough
you can only do it with a mod
Yeah
but most people prefer mop
more than once
Bro thats fifth panthion
And eater is preferred when running NMG over SB
its one of the enemies
oh is that true
Are you kidding
OHHH MOP IS MARK OF PRIDE I THOUGHT ONE OF THE CHARMS WAS A MOP
Good Knight
no its a playable character trust
hungry knight > hollow knight
Goodnight
havent really looked into the r5 meta for a while but i dont see how nmg over sbody affects mop/eater so much
i guess you can say that narts give enough safety when needed so mop not as needed?
feels weird tho
yes bro did you get the new hollow knight: skys legacy you get to play as radiance (100% no cap very real epic WHAAA)
yeah wbu
i imagine it's reasonably marginal tho
Yeah
Probably
That's the main reason people use NMG, to abuse most nart windows
mmh i guess
But yeah you can totally do mop + nmg
i still feel like that doesn't exactly make mop obsolete but i havent tried and i really do not care to
uh huh
nmg is best if you don't like steady body
Nay combination of two between mop or eater and SB or NMG works
jollenio!!
yeah absolutely
Hellone!!
hiiiiiii
Which hornet better?
hru
I just run fun charms for r5 at the moment
rate my p4 build
Really good!
Going rn to the family dinner
hf!
are you autistic where the fuck is defenders crest and heavy blow
dont forget greed
Ty!
wait im cooking use unbreakable greed and overcharm with heavy blow
very amazing
i tend to have fun with r5 when i'm looking back on it after winning so the most fun charms are the broken ones 
its the only time deep focus can be good without quick focus
Mop quickslash sb flukenest shaman
grubsong + deep focus is suprisingly inf masks
this is tantamount to cheating
what is mf cooking
I'm in the enjoy the process stage at the moment
just make sure to get thorns of agony, heavy blow, joni's blessing
Hitless pop was the last time I did pop
And flukes help with the kingsmolds
unbreakable greed
The hardest part
that too
Winning was fun before now attempts are fun
i thought you meant you did pop without pogoing when you said "hitless pop" i should probably go
damn that's sick honestly
bro thorns of agony lets them do damage
i feel like i had the opposite where eventually just playing for the sake of it lost its charm and the cool parts were the progress
ding dong
guys what should i do after i beat radiant absolute radiance?
steel soul hk or speedrun
There is no progress now
bye bye see you guys on christmas morining
though what i defined as progress was very vague, i remember being incredibly happy when i randomly noticed that i hadnt really died to oblobbles in forever
im messing around with builds. the ultimate heal build might potentially be qfocus, shape of unn, soul eater, and grubsong
lol
Runs either die to vk or get to near the end
it's like whenever i somehow notice a place i improved
it was cool
yeah that's the ending phase
any day now i trust
R5 or smth
I was enjoying playing for the sake of it, it basically became part of my daily routine
but if you're having fun with the runs you're probably chilling
All that changed when I went on break for real life reasons...
I think after the first few times I did it completing was less important
And I lost all my skill and felt like shit making anti progress

ah wait you already won
I just do it because it is relaxing now
ok that makes more sense then nvm lmao

I'm doing soul binding R5 rn, basically easier nail only
But I'm not that committed
I have pb 1 or 2 in all the seperate bindings so I just do runs of each occasionally
feel like in retrospect maybe i grinded r5 too much and burnt myself out on it or sth because i really dont want to think about getting back to it
Pb1 on mask binding š„
Some attempt I'll get some
once in a while i throw 2 runs at it, get decently far then am reminded why i didnt wanna
not that i disliked the grind itself but i think i kinda ended up throwing a shit ton
4 pv deaths do something to you lol
4 absrad deaths dont help
I did an hour a day or so on average for about 5 weeks
my main build is soul eater, qslash, and shaman stone. Its very good for abusing invincibility frames by spamming d dark while dealing good dps with nail
what do yall think
i feel like soul eater is slept on a lot
and right now learning silksong bosses is more fun anyways
its quite the versatile charm
I agree eater is slept on but I feel like you could use the four notches better
I was doing hitless silksong pantheons but honestly...
i got out of the endgame boss mines so now i get to learn midgame things 
It's just not as fun
my main issue with eater is just you produce way too much soul
das fair
ah damn
Got burnt out of act 2 bosses pantheon hitless
Spell build is like infinite soul debug
i did see your progress video on it

I also just donāt use ddark anymore so idc abt it most of the time
I definitely have the skill for a 1 hit but I'm just tired
i got r3 yesterday
In Silksong?
Nice!
do not be stupid checkpoint
i can tell you that my r3 was 4 mins longer than your p2 run
It's boring af tho
Really? Maybe it's playstyle and build
Oh there lol
it actually goes in vs bosses 3 and 7 tho
Iirc S2 is 21 bosses and S3 like 17 or something
18 and 15
i guess i can give a take on r2 once i have some time in that, gotta get on learning that for now
any strats you wanna share?
probably not here tho
Yeah lol
the vagueposting here is already stretching it a little lol
But if you're interested I'll definitely share later, rn I'm reaching my grandparents house soon
You can send me a dm
Yeah lol
ah yeah sure, appreciate it 
I've most certainly optimized most fights atp
yeah i feel like i was more on the bash my head into it with good enough strats
there's a few good things i've found but i really didnt experiment as much as i probably should have
Well I gtg now
Experimenting is boring but can be huge
yeah for sure
it paid off a decent few times for me even though i barely did any
but i'm also lazy
Yeah lol
alright hf at your grandparents 
Anyways, bye!!
talking about hk instead of playing it on the big Christmas day
this is because talking about it lets me ignore the misery of r5 type stuff while i get to think about the good parts
Peak gift
this is way better than actually suffering through the grind
Ok throwo
Lol
just play it
shrimple as that
surely
you guys should like
spend time with family in christmas instead of playing hk or being here
it's true can we shut down the server for a day
then conveniently forget to reenable it after that'd be good
⦠no?
I mean I cant stop mods from doing it
new art
if you go to grubfather after finding enough you get a reward
I confirm
?
you
