[vernal knot]

Breh

[fiery trench]

I'm not becoming the Duolingo bird

[vernal knot]

Yes you are

I'm duolingofying you some day

[fiery trench]

I mean recoloring the Duolingo bird wouldn't be that hard

getting me to use it forever, on the other hand

[royal helm]

what do i do with the things collecting in the bottom of my inventory?

i assume some sort of historian to give them too?

[fiery trench]

[royal helm]

alr, havent found yet

[fickle spindle]

unnecessary spoilers

[royal helm]

ong

people do that so much

[fickle spindle]

tf is that supposed to mean

[royal helm]

i know there is the possibility of spoilers here but it seems people go out of their way to shove spoilers down my throat

[fiery trench]

ur in hk disc
if spoilers were an issue, hk help is right there

[fickle spindle]

even then they still do sometimes

[fiery trench]

... the channel meant for people to avoid spoilers
goddamnit guys

[royal helm]

oh apparently i have half the stag stations now? less than i expected

how do i know what % i am in the game?

[rich stone]

In HK you need to reach the final boss area to see your percentage completion

[royal helm]

i have so many good charms i want to use 😭

opportunity cost goes crazy

is quick focus worth the 3 notches?

[languid gale]

depends

in certain bosses yes

[royal helm]

about to fight mantis lords

theyre pretty damn fast so i assume so

[languid gale]

not really needed for mantis lords

[vernal knot]

huh

[languid gale]

doesnt add chances to heal

[royal helm]

ok i guess i just need to figure out the heal windows then

[vernal knot]

I mean I don't know what that word means

[languid gale]

in the chances u have to heal quick focus doesnt matter

[languid gale]

when they throw the blades

[vernal knot]

What the fuck does it mean

[languid gale]

it depends on their positioning though

[vernal knot]

@languid gale your smart

what does it mean

Oh

I mean (I think I'm playing devil advocate here) but they call me "G*oyz eagle" because of a stupid joke I don't get

basically my name was Gozyu Eagle at one point

and they butchered it

So their friend group began calling me that

But hey maybe they do mean ts

I dunno'

I'll ask Serenity at sme point

[sweet quiver]

is my pc at a normal temperature

[vernal knot]

Is it Farenheit

[sweet quiver]

its celsius

[vernal knot]

I dunno' the guy

[vernal knot]

Console edition I think

[vernal knot]

Yall being using a slur and hiding it as a funny typo

That's pretty mean

Derragotary term

Your whole friend group is just extremely weird

And I'd like to ask for you to never speak to me again

[gentle pilot]

[royal helm]

too poor to buy a charm notch

What is VOIDHEART EDITION

[ionic briar]

I wish I could get gud

At hollow knight

[finite ember]

HOW MANY HITS THE THE HRONET PHASE FUCKING 2 HOLY SHIT

100???

[ionic briar]

HOLY SHIT IS THAT SPAMTON G SPAMTON FROM THE HIT GAME DELTA RUNE BY TOBY FOX?

[vernal knot]

no real reason not to

[keen fjord]

What isword heart edition

Voidheart

[ionic briar]

Sword heart😭

[fiery trench]

voidheart vesion was a content pack update

[scenic siren]

the isword

[fiery trench]

should be installed by default

[keen fjord]

What does it give me

[royal helm]

does using soul stone and spell twister make each spell now cost 2 hits?

[vernal knot]

A cool title screen perchance

[fiery trench]

not sure what outside of the title screen

[keen fjord]

What???

[vernal knot]

Dawg you had the question answered thrice now

[keen fjord]

I just downloaded the game

[vernal knot]

What do you want us to say

It's literally just the full game

[fiery trench]

u can cast 4 spells, all of which are buffed

[keen fjord]

I can change the title screen

[scenic siren]

you got it then

[fiery trench]

some screens are unlocked with endings or progression

[vernal knot]

Did you do the math in your head?

[royal helm]

soul catcher sorry, not shaman stone

[keen fjord]

How do u check parentage

Percentage

[royal helm]

only see when get near final boss

[fiery trench]

ah.
soul is just easier to get
think its 2 hits per spell

[fiery trench]

ability obtained late game
till then, either online tracker or ur blind

[royal helm]

i need that one more slot for shaman stone and spell twister

[keen fjord]

Okay

[royal helm]

thats what i want to run

[graceful storm]

Ok then...

[keen fjord]

How may hours does it take to beat HK 112%

[scenic siren]

depends

[keen fjord]

Or max percentage

[keen fjord]

New player

[fiery trench]

depends on the player, but could be like 20-50 hours for new or somewhat experienced

[keen fjord]

Completely new

[scenic siren]

probably a lot then

[keen fjord]

Someone else said 90

[fiery trench]

as for max percent, don't even bother with 116%

[royal helm]

entirely depends how good you are

[keen fjord]

Imma bother

[shrewd nymph]

roughly 60, it depends on the persons skill and how much they use like guides and whatnot so not worth comparing

[finite ember]

HORNET 2 SUCKS TELL ME HOW TO FUCKING DODGHE SPIKES NO HITR

[fiery trench]

u really wanna find every single currency chest

[keen fjord]

Should i watch a gameplay

[fiery trench]

break them

[shrewd nymph]

break them with fireball

[finite ember]

good

[fiery trench]

I say explore, only look up things if ur truly stuck

[keen fjord]

Igu

Alr chat bye imma hop on tmrw

[fiery trench]

cya

[royal helm]

spell twister doesnt effect focusing right?

[scenic siren]

negative

[fiery trench]

only damaging spells

[shy patio]

I took 66 hours 🙏

[fiery trench]

wouldn't it be positive, since the statement is correct?

[scenic siren]

idk man both work

like i could say no it doesnt and it still makes sense

[royal helm]

english is very ambigous with answering questions with yes/no

[scenic siren]

its weird

[royal helm]

entirely about tone

[fiery trench]

fair, no point getting into yes no pedantics

[scenic siren]

yeah

[vernal knot]

BoomBoom?

[royal helm]

bruh my playlist just picked skarrsinger karmelita

wrong game 😭

[scenic siren]

boom

[keen fjord]

Should i get sliksong now or after i beat HK

[vernal knot]

It's pretty good though

[scenic siren]

after

[vernal knot]

Don't stop the boomboom

[fiery trench]

after hk
hk is silksong's tutorial

[royal helm]

dont be like me, play intended order

[scenic siren]

boomboomboom

[royal helm]

im now breezing thru hk and i regret it

[vernal knot]

Silksong is pretty easy though

[vernal knot]

BOOMBOOMBOOM?

[scenic siren]

quadruple boom

[vague creek]

So like, guys, i beat path of pain in 2 hours first time

[keen fjord]

Yo wait .. sliksong is harder?????

[fiery trench]

it'll kick ur ass, or mods will do it for u
enjoy the breeze while it last

[vernal knot]

Duolingo what mods have you cleared

[royal helm]

mantis lords are kicking my ass now

ive first tried several bosses and now i cant even beat the first mantis lord

[fiery trench]

to explain

[keen fjord]

WTD

Bye chat

[fiery trench]

Cagney and Tribe of Battle

[vernal knot]

This chart will be very different with SoS trust

[fiery trench]

bye

[scenic siren]

ohhh

this makes sense now

[fiery trench]

the sheer number of times people say "Silksong is undoubtable harder" are ludicrous cuz its not

[autumn ice]

cannot wait for this chart to include silksong godhome in 2029

[royal helm]

so godhome is going to kick my ass harder than ||LL||

[fiery trench]

then the difficulty will be more comparable

[royal helm]

finally got my charm notch

[scenic siren]

godhome too hard for me 💔

[fiery trench]

I mean, if ur struggling with one, then (SPOILER CENSOR)
u'll last

[royal helm]

mantises will fear me

[autumn ice]

the silksong endgame bosses are a decent bit more challenging mechanically than hk endgame

especially if we say that we get even harder bosses like absrad

[finite ember]

stupid fucking spike balls THIS is the hardest boss

[autumn ice]

but who knows

[fiery trench]

respect, not fear
hit them once and they'll fight back

[royal helm]

oh i didnt know that happened

[fiery trench]

lmao no
Just the hardest one you've seen

[finite ember]

asny help

[scenic siren]

hot take

hornets fight is unfun

[vernal knot]

Go on red pikmin pfp haver

[scenic siren]

both of them

[vernal knot]

Hot take indeed

I'd say Sentinel is aight

[fiery trench]

dont rush down, destroy spike traps, and heal when u can
specially when she throws her needle

[royal helm]

||khann, nyleth, and gp are all fairly easy, but holy crap karmelita and LL are difficult and somehow also the most fun ive ever had in these games||

[fiery trench]

the few late game bosses that feel like bosses

then there's Gormond

[royal helm]

the random act 3 bosses are hella easy

[shrewd nymph]

i like h1 but i dislike h2

[royal helm]

||gurr, garmond, and pinstress were all too easy||

[scenic siren]

she has that random stupid repositioning jump

i hate it

[royal helm]

the rest were at least decent to ball kicking

[fiery trench]

do u hate Lost Kin too?

[autumn ice]

hornet 2 is kinda weird

i like it but i can see not liking it

[fiery trench]

or is that just an incorrect assumption

[scenic siren]

yeah

[autumn ice]

it's pretty cramped

[scenic siren]

its uh

i wouldnt say i hate it

i dont really like it though

[royal helm]

im kinda curious where hornet 2 will be, i expected to fight her when she appeared in CoT (dont tell me where it is)

[fiery trench]

idk why, I like bosses where movement is just as unpredictable as their attack pattern

[royal helm]

do you like karm?

[fiery trench]

LK, Nosk, PV/THK are some of my favorites

[shrewd nymph]

i hate the arena not the fight

[finite ember]

how do i beat the hornet fight i dont wanna hear some stupid fucking pogo

[autumn ice]

where is this unpredictable movement of pv you speak of

[royal helm]

dodge

[autumn ice]

the funny instant dash oh god

[frigid terrace]

This is only valid under the assumption that you never use ddark

[finite ember]

fuck you

[fiery trench]

|| Only Act 3 boss I respect. The Queen has deserved my love ||

[autumn ice]

the spins into you for fun boss holy

[royal helm]

like fr tho, jump over or move away form her attacks

[scenic siren]

am i weird for liking the watcher knights boss

[shrewd nymph]

instashaw, her attack getting cancelled every 5 seconds, her just being invisible and attacking wai~1

[fiery trench]

shaman stone + soul catcher
fireball her to death ig

[royal helm]

move when she jumps so she misses

[fiery trench]

potentially, but I have no qualms with it

[autumn ice]

ya that's pretty fair

[fiery trench]

I mean I like Deepnest so my opinion is invalid off rip

[autumn ice]

oh also lune i got a 1 hit s4

to sinner

[shrewd nymph]

WHAT

wtf

[scenic siren]

👀

[shrewd nymph]

good lord congrats

[autumn ice]

i can post vid in hk general if you want

[zealous skiff]

WTFFFFF

[royal helm]

spell twister or soul catcher for mantis lords? (using w/ shaman stone)

[zealous skiff]

WTAF

[subtle glacier]

wk is fun if vs/shade soul is your best damage

[zealous skiff]

💀

[shrewd nymph]

yeah id love to see

[autumn ice]

ya jump from 4 which is p cool

[fiery trench]

ggs

[zealous skiff]

how are yall so good at sk

[shrewd nymph]

true

[royal helm]

practice

[autumn ice]

idk it's kinda just super consistent

[scenic siren]

idk do you use spells a lot

[shrewd nymph]

i wouldnt even be able to beat s4

[crimson quiver]

am i gonna have fun practicing absrad, now that i unlocked her?

[autumn ice]

like there's just no marmus that give you an rng check

[royal helm]

a decent amount

i was a ||shaman main|| in sk

[autumn ice]

im ngl it took me a little bit too (in part bc i just hadnt found some of the bosses lmao)

[zealous skiff]

I'm like halfway consistent to where i want to be at half the boses for rs4

[fiery trench]

depends
attuned and ascended sure
radiant, depends on if u like the fight by then

[scenic siren]

actually you are using shaman stone so use spells twister probably

[crimson quiver]

and if i had fun doing PV and NKG radiant before absrad radiant?

[buoyant lagoon]

radiant if you like gambling

[fiery trench]

I mean I had the same experience and hated Rad. AbsRad, but can't speak for everyone

[royal helm]

i unequipped the compass for one second and im already lost 😭

[fiery trench]

where are u and where do u want to go

I know the map like the back of my hand

[shrewd meadow]

you do not need ismas tear or cdash or monarch wings for shade cloak

[crimson quiver]

compass is the best charm XD

[royal helm]

i figured it out, going from queen station to mantis lords

[fiery trench]

primal aspid skip my goat

[buoyant lagoon]

you need cdash to cross the big gap no?

[fiery trench]

swim across after getting the lighthouse

[buoyant lagoon]

oh you can swim in the void?

[finite ember]

hohow do i beat hornet in her senti9nel ;thoingy

pols

[buoyant lagoon]

i didn't know lol

[shrewd meadow]

yes

[fiery trench]

VS spam, dive spam, trauma boost urself into godhood

[scenic siren]

gambling 🤑

[shrewd nymph]

radabsrad isnt gambling what

[buoyant lagoon]

phase 4 is kinda gambling

[fiery trench]

Also for some reason you can't have Tribe of Battle and Infinity at the same time

[crimson quiver]

radkoth is tho

[languid gale]

which phase is phase 4

[buoyant lagoon]

i mean you CAN chase after her when she's teleporting around but more often than not you'll get cooked

[shrewd nymph]

phase 4 can take a little longer with rng but you wont lose because of it

[languid gale]

climb?

[fiery trench]

not if u get the orbs off screen

[autumn ice]

well it's definitely extremely high variance in terms of difficulty

[fiery trench]

orbs

[shrewd nymph]

radkoth also isnt

[autumn ice]

you can definitely win pretty much any radabsrad pattern

[shrewd nymph]

radabsrad is high rng but if you're dying its from skill

not rng

[buoyant lagoon]

i mean yeah you just have to be patient but it's gambling in the sense that you can have her tp right next to you and get it over with in seconds

[finite ember]

i always get to the spike part then die

[autumn ice]

but that doesn't mean that people getting their first radabsrad clear wont probably need to get a little lucky to win

[languid gale]

i mean phases

[shrewd nymph]

which also applies to attuned and ascended

[buoyant lagoon]

or have her teleport to the corners for minutes and you don't get to hit her

[autumn ice]

that said, pretty much every death is preventable

so do not blame bad rng if you are looking to improve

[crimson quiver]

so all vids of tips i saw for m*rkoth are all a lie then

[languid gale]

platform part and climb are really rng based ofc but u cant really die because of it unless u just dont know what to do

[autumn ice]

but acting like the difficulty isnt very high variance is also just not being truthful

[shrewd nymph]

nail art phase 1, shade soul phase 2 sums up the fight

[buoyant lagoon]

yes but you can afford to take more risks when you can get hit a couple times, in radiant you just have to sit and wait

[fiery trench]

yeah orbs
the one with the 2 platforms and her constantly spitting out orbs?
unless that isn't what it's known as?

[languid gale]

wdym 2 platforms

for abs rad?

[shrewd nymph]

its high rng but if you're dying its not at rngs fault

[autumn ice]

markoth phase 2 skip ❤️

[fickle spindle]

i just no hit ascended elder wu and i could’ve done radiance and i know ill struggle now

[buoyant lagoon]

the one before climb when she's just teleporting around platforms

[autumn ice]

yes i said this

[fiery trench]

the final phase of AbsRad

whatever the fuck its called

[autumn ice]

do not blame rng

but rng is relevant, the fight is high variance

[languid gale]

rng based but easy

[shrewd nymph]

with marmu im gonna blame rng because it helps me be more sane

[shrewd meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/honkai-star-rail-evernight-kitasan-black-gif-13604167990009950945

[buoyant lagoon]

in rare cases it can be, i've had wall of light+swords combo

[languid gale]

if u get good rng then she will just stay on the bottom 3 platforms

[royal helm]

is there any better bench for mantis lords?

[autumn ice]

based gg

[fiery trench]

Is there a boss where a loss can truly be up to rng

[buoyant lagoon]

and the wall literally doesn't let you see the swords

[languid gale]

if u get bad rng she will be on the edges

[shrewd meadow]

have you considered the spell desolate dive or descending dark

[buoyant lagoon]

it's very rare tho

[shrewd nymph]

ddark?

[shrewd meadow]

also that doesn't happen

that's an anyrad thing

[fiery trench]

there's one in mantis village
that u get access to post boss win

so no

[autumn ice]

there's definitely some light wall attack overlap in some patterns

but you can always ddark

[buoyant lagoon]

if i notice sure but you only have like a second to notice

[autumn ice]

or try to get through the wall early, that's also just good

[shrewd nymph]

it overlaps after it reaches the halfway point

[shrewd meadow]

that's a long time

[autumn ice]

^

damn my ^ missed

[shrewd nymph]

but ddark exists so

[buoyant lagoon]

like, notice the swords behind the white wall

[shrewd meadow]

yes

a second is a very long time

[buoyant lagoon]

it almost always caught me off guard

[autumn ice]

but yeah either dash through the wall before halfway point or ddark if you cant do that

[buoyant lagoon]

then again i don't use ddark as much as i should really

[shrewd meadow]

the ONLY bald thing about absrad is rng on sword rain attack when you're trying to combo her smh

[shrewd nymph]

trueeee

[buoyant lagoon]

i suspect i wouldn't have taken so long to get radiant absrad if i just used it more

[shrewd nymph]

sword rain telefrag ew

[buoyant lagoon]

yeah that too

[crimson quiver]

ddark can be used almost everywhere and in any situation where you have enough soul lol

[fiery trench]

is using NArt for the final attack of sword rain even worth it?

[buoyant lagoon]

you jump to get a hit and a sword spawns inside you

[fiery trench]

or did I just waste time?

[shrewd meadow]

no

[shrewd nymph]

nah

[shrewd meadow]

first off it's not that much more damage

[shrewd nymph]

absrad narts arent necessary at all

[fiery trench]

damn
welp good thing I don't need to do that again

[shrewd nymph]

but they have a small use

[shrewd meadow]

second off absrad has set hp in plats

[foggy sable]

last phase nail arts my beloved

[finite ember]

how do i beat hornet sentenials spike ball in under 1 sec no rng

[shrewd nymph]

nart as she spawns in >

[fiery trench]

no search results found

[finite ember]

i also have lvl 1 upgrade nail

[shrewd meadow]

qol abuser

[autumn ice]

holy cheating

[shrewd nymph]

ok the cutscene is longer than the 41 bosses before

like can you blame me

[fiery trench]

I can get that without qol
just the Nart tho

so not worth at all

[shrewd meadow]

yes

[fiery trench]

clearly

[finite ember]

i have lvl 1 upgrade nail should i go upgrade it again im on hornet 2 if yes HOW and under 20 minutes

[crimson quiver]

i rather spam shriek right when absrad spawns in the 1st phase

[shrewd meadow]

I beat r5 without mods so my run is a legit run

[fiery trench]

go look for pale ore
there's one in Basin left of the tram

[shrewd nymph]

i need qol for r5

[autumn ice]

aha me too

[shrewd nymph]

my cursor can go to my other monitor without it

[autumn ice]

i learned from getting caught the first time

[fiery trench]

why the specific time tho?

[shrewd nymph]

so i basically cannot do r5 without qol

[buoyant lagoon]

that's p5 only i think

when you fight her in hall of gods you start with a grand total of 0 soul

[royal helm]

woah wait my shade also gets my spells? thats hella cool

[autumn ice]

i couldnt do r5 without debug mod the first time around

but i learned to do it unmodded

i believe that you can do it too

[finite ember]

i dont have patience

[shrewd nymph]

if i can fix the cursor thing then maybe

[crimson quiver]

yeah. since i like to think in the P5 way

[shrewd nymph]

but its a bugfix grah

[fiery trench]

...

[autumn ice]

unplug your mouse?

[shrewd nymph]

[fiery trench]

what do people use mouse for in hk anyways?

[crimson quiver]

the game requires a lot of patience...

[shrewd nymph]

habit from like every other pc game to exist

its also just more logical and easier

[fiery trench]

ah

[shrewd nymph]

but kb vs kbm is preference basically entirely

[shrewd meadow]

nuh uh

kb is far superior

[shrewd nymph]

outrageous take

[fiery trench]

how so?

[shrewd meadow]

because it's the way god intended (team cherry)

[fiery trench]

...
mentally called it

[shrewd nymph]

how credible is tc

[shrewd meadow]

relatively

[crimson quiver]

makes sense

[shrewd nymph]

dont ask them why colo 1 can give 1024 geo and colo 2 and 3 2020/3020

or why shriek and ddark are directional

[buoyant lagoon]

wasn't there a screen that literally told you "the game's better on controller" when you started hk?

[shrewd nymph]

or how wraiths works based on the time of the day

[buoyant lagoon]

they removed it but

there used to be right

[languid gale]

its in sk

[zealous skiff]

they think p5ab is arder than r5 so very

[fiery trench]

lmao

[shrewd meadow]

no

[foggy sable]

well...

[shrewd meadow]

true

[zealous skiff]

translate

hi throw hi grey

[shrewd nymph]

grey works for tc is what im hearing

[shrewd meadow]

hi chomp

[foggy sable]

I thought they were equivalent at one point

[zealous skiff]

hi 🌕

[fiery trench]

this was known

[autumn ice]

its possible that they just assumed r5 wouldnt be done so they did the r5 thing as like a shitpost thing

kinda like celeste goldens, not sure if the devs ever expected people to get all of them

[foggy sable]

the devs got the b side ones I think

[shrewd nymph]

thats probably why r5ab doesnt show either

tbh

[shrewd meadow]

P5 double golden my beloved (dashless hitless)

[autumn ice]

holy

[fiery trench]

unfortunately, we got time and lives to burn

[autumn ice]

idk i dont consider my time on these challenges burnt theyre pretty fun

well r5 is debatable

[foggy sable]

r5 fun

[autumn ice]

rs4 is the real fun challenge

[fiery trench]

until we get an irl chamber of spirit and time, r5 is remaining unobtained for me

[autumn ice]

you have to believe me

[proud haven]

I don't even know what that s means fr

thoughtless

[autumn ice]

symphony

[fiery trench]

I’ll believe you when sheep fly

[proud haven]

Symphony fr

[autumn ice]

for the silksong pantheons

[proud haven]

What even ong

Oh ok

[fickle spindle]

i’m struggling with radiant elder wu more than ascended… I no hit ascended

[royal helm]

beat mantises

[fiery trench]

Radiant pressure
u’ll get over it

[autumn ice]

i just made this term up and will keep throwing it around until it establishes itself

[royal helm]

that was a peak fight, i can see why my friend loves them

[autumn ice]

also connor i got a 1 hit s4

[crimson quiver]

dash when rings go down... that's it

[autumn ice]

that's like

good

[fiery trench]

as all good words are

[shrewd nymph]

couldnt have guessed

[proud haven]

Holy W dude

[buoyant lagoon]

performance anxiety, happens a lot when doing radiants

[proud haven]

What on earth fr

[autumn ice]

video is in hk general, thumbnail is pretty spoiler free but let's not

[proud haven]

You're so cracked u gotta quit playing video games move on to solving geo political issues or something fr

[carmine lava]

s4 is a funny name but it makes sense

[autumn ice]

unfortunately the video games have this thing where they're fun

which geopolitical issues do not

[proud haven]

Omg it'd be fun fr

Dw

Trust

[crimson quiver]

am i the only one that when i show a friend my gameplay, i end up being at my peak?

[autumn ice]

i'm pretty sure there's no preexisting term that clashes right?

[proud haven]

Is this like an aura farming statement

I support it

W

I am always amazing so idk

[autumn ice]

last time i streamed my gameplay i got hit to nkg

[proud haven]

Did u cry

[buoyant lagoon]

it's the opposite for me, i start streaming and suddenly i play like i never touched this game before

[autumn ice]

yes

it's really quite depressing

[fiery trench]

hk’s the only community I’m in where I dont feel the need to pressure myself into masochism
-# mostly cuz I’d achieve little but still

[autumn ice]

knight controls are actually so bad once youre used to silksong lmao

[shrewd nymph]

i play like ive just installed the game on screenshare

[autumn ice]

do not pressure yourself into masochism

[proud haven]

I fr am only good after I lose one time each to everything that's stressing me out and that's normally when by myself after hours so I don't play well with an audience fr

[carmine lava]

i don't think so

[autumn ice]

i am the biggest advocate for only doing challenges that are fun

[oak galleon]

Okay this game's almost perfect. But why am I unable to go to certain places in Infested Dirthmouth? Like they are blocked??

[autumn ice]

if you do not enjoy p5 just stop

[buoyant lagoon]

i did a fresh 112% run after playing silksong and HOLY SHIT DUUUUUUUDE HE'S SO SLOW

[crimson quiver]

it happened to me when doing NKG radiant and was able to beat all the remaining bosses before unlocking absrad for the first time because i was showing my friend my skills

[fiery trench]

if you count getting somewhat consistent parries on Oro with cdash as my peak, then yes

[autumn ice]

i promise it's okay

[buoyant lagoon]

learn from your sister and fucking SPRINT

[oak galleon]

Does anyone know what I can do

[proud haven]

Holy W

[vernal knot]

Springmaster

[vernal knot]

Infested Dirtmouth

[fiery trench]

no area is truly blocked off
u just gotta find a new way to them

[cinder oyster]

Its wasn't of malice it was necessary relocation

[proud haven]

Wait omg I did steel soul 112% first time with an audience and I ended it with p5 and I remember the p5 being super duper locked in fr

[buoyant lagoon]

yes once crossroads are infected some paths are blocked

so you have to go the long way around

[proud haven]

Still harder tho fosho

[fiery trench]

u spared her.
she got lucky

[crimson quiver]

the thing is that he made me feel unstoppable. each time i was doing that sweet perfect parry, he would be impressed as if i was a god gamer.

[fiery trench]

My lock ins are so variable its insane
Can lock in on video calk but not recording
cant lock in with irl friends but can if their a meter behind me

[cinder oyster]

There's a short cut nearby tho

[fresh isle]

[fiery trench]

…
yknow what, I shouldnt be suprised

[vernal knot]

Indie cross

[fiery trench]

we got PoP in gd, this was a guarantee

[buoyant lagoon]

ok but when do we get celeste mountain in hk?

[fresh isle]

indie cross doesn't run for me 😭

[crimson quiver]

maybe i should try celeste, after all

[oak galleon]

Okay thank you!

[vernal knot]

Climbing it with HK's moveset would be horrendous

[fiery trench]

https://youtu.be/IQI-H1evRbA?

[oak galleon]

So basically I can go there but find another way and they are not truly blocked! Good to know!

[placid gull]

False knight is down in my nail art only run, now im heading to greenpath to take on the silksong

[vocal crypt]

Hollow knight in terraria would be good if not better

[crimson quiver]

may the shaw be with you

[vocal crypt]

Do you start with all nail arts?

[cinder oyster]

If you go to the tram path its not blocked

[fiery trench]

https://youtube.com/shorts/9WegHLbQJCE?
keep up

[oak galleon]

That's not blocked I know. It's just about Salubra's store

[placid gull]

No just one random one, i had google flip a coin, heads was great slash and tails was cyclone, dash slash wasnt an option cause i dont start with dash, it landed on heads

[cinder oyster]

Yeah continue around through it

[autumn ice]

i did say this like 7 hours or so before the 1 hit s4

[vocal crypt]

Impressive

[autumn ice]

so maybe it's just free?

[fiery trench]

or ur cracked

[oak galleon]

I have unlocked the Tram tho, leads me directly to resting grounds

[fiery trench]

either or

[autumn ice]

maybe

probably a mix of both

[oak galleon]

Don't tell me there's a caterpillar hidden or something

[fiery trench]

there’s one to the left of the room that tram leads into

[cinder oyster]

Go down f rom the exit of the tram room in infected crossroads

[fiery trench]

but u probably have it

[oak galleon]

Ohh

[oak galleon]

Then I'll definitely find it! Thank you guys!!

[graceful storm]

How do I get zote statue?

[cinder oyster]

[fiery trench]

[cinder oyster]

My friend seen this and said what's wrong with you

[autumn ice]

missing a notch for fun holy

[fiery trench]

who needs compass in the grand 2026

[fiery trench]

[cinder oyster]

It was my first time beating the game

[fiery trench]

[sudden helm]

[royal helm]

does anyone know how much fragile greed increases by?

[fiery trench]

30% iirc

[shrewd nymph]

its a range

[fiery trench]

ah

so even more useless

[shrewd nymph]

20-100 or 20-60 i cant remember

[cinder oyster]

I did this without help

Not even Google

[fickle spindle]

why do i still need to beat attuned even if a beat ascended

[fiery trench]

but u still lack 10%
hence why I sent that

[cinder oyster]

True

[kind sigil]

millibelle when i catch you millibele

[cinder oyster]

But I want the glory

[fiery trench]

u dont
its just up to you if you wish to fight them at that level

[kind sigil]

when i catch you millibelle

[fiery trench]

hey, should I beat HK as a pacifist or do genocide

[kind sigil]

kill everyone

[fickle spindle]

pacifist

[fiery trench]

Geno it is

[kind sigil]

kill everyone

[fiery trench]

hmm, a conundrum

[kind sigil]

you must murder

murder all

[fickle spindle]

just make the trolley drift to achieve both routes

[fiery trench]

wat?

[royal helm]

according to this i am 28.5% done

[vestal cedar]

How do you have half a progression

[fiery trench]

alr, u'll be tie breaker
HK pacifist or genocide

[fiery trench]

half a mask complete

[royal helm]

[royal helm]

[placid gull]

[fickle spindle]

[royal scaffold]

didn't you say it was 102%

[fickle spindle]

that was someone else

[royal helm]

will the first charm vendor ever sell new charms?

[royal scaffold]

oh

[royal scaffold]

which one

sly or salubra

[royal helm]

salubra

[royal scaffold]

no

[royal helm]

alr

[royal scaffold]

she just sells more notches the more charms you have

wait at least i think not

[kind sigil]

using millibelle as a volleyball bc that mf took all my geo (i already got it all back

[graceful storm]

Can y'all tell me if I can run HK after I send my pc specs?

[royal scaffold]

gonna be fr here i think anything made after 2010 could run HK

[graceful storm]

Use Marmu instead

[uneven holly]

Hollow knight is almost 9 years old let that sink in

https://tenor.com/view/let-that-sink-in-sink-door-open-door-meme-gif-11027748423699535107

[kind sigil]

No.

[graceful storm]

or Galien

[kind sigil]

hk probably older than some people in the server

[kind sigil]

No.

[royal scaffold]

NAH

[graceful storm]

Is my PS1 older than HK?

[royal scaffold]

BAN HOLLOW KNIGHT FROM DISCORD

ITS UNDERAGE

[uneven holly]

True

[loud sundial]

FINALLY MADE IT TO PANTHEON 4

[graceful storm]

@slate timber it's the hollow knight no way

[royal helm]

guys silksong is older than me this is insane

[graceful storm]

Bro my pc possessed or smth

It keeps opening new tabs on me without me doing anything

[royal scaffold]

you're cooked

[finite ember]

WHEN HORNET DOES HER SPIKE BALL ATTACK what hp is she at?

[royal scaffold]

pure vessel exists

[loud sundial]

got to pure vessel on my first try, been trying to get consistent with them

[royal scaffold]

idk i think below half hp

[graceful storm]

Why should it matter?

[finite ember]

because

[buoyant lagoon]

half usually

but she can choose to do any attack at any point so it can be delayed

[kind sigil]

ts you?

https://tenor.com/view/baby-laugh-ai-baby-babyfryingme-baby-sob-folk-gif-18221933230434867320

[buoyant lagoon]

it's good to keep track of how much hp the boss has

to decide what to do

[royal scaffold]

also guys is it concerning that i'm like 200%ing the game

[finite ember]

how many desolate darks is she?

[worn hamlet]

how'd you get plasmified sherma ;-;

[royal scaffold]

aka every journal entry

[finite ember]

yes temmie

[royal scaffold]

every relic

[finite ember]

you WILL pay for college if u do ts

[kind sigil]

How, pray tell, does one do so without a Boss Bar mod?

[graceful storm]

Is my PS1 older than HK?

[royal scaffold]

every flower

every ending

mr mushroom

[buoyant lagoon]

game knowledge and in some bosses, certain attacks

[royal scaffold]

void idol (radiant)

[shrewd nymph]

counting hits or with hp specific moves

[royal scaffold]

might go for weathered mask

[buoyant lagoon]

case in point hornet only does the ball spike thingy when below half hp

[royal scaffold]

not good enough for all bindings p5

[graceful storm]

can this run silksong or hollow knight?

[royal scaffold]

oop sorry ram guy we're all stupid and wrong

hornet can use spike balls starting from 480 hp

she has 700

[buoyant lagoon]

both games have surprisingly low requirements

[royal scaffold]

as 480 ≠ 350 we are incorrect

[buoyant lagoon]

i've seen silksong running decently on 10+ year old basic government laptops

[graceful storm]

can both games run without any lag?

[royal scaffold]

shes at like 70%

[buoyant lagoon]

ah so like 2/3 health

[graceful storm]

does it run on a gameboy advance?

[royal scaffold]

65 to 70 percent yeah

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-hollow-knight-grub-gif-9438817003087179920

[royal scaffold]

why are these stickers

[slate ferry]

i just cheesed pantheon 2. I cant believe the p1 took me days in comparison

[graceful storm]

cool fraud

[finite ember]

how many desolate darks does hornet part 2 take before she dies

[royal scaffold]

"desolate darks"

[graceful storm]

i cheesed p5 all bindings with invincibility

[royal scaffold]

desolate dive or descending dark

[shrewd nymph]

i dont think cheese is the right word there 😭

[graceful storm]

it is?

[kind sigil]

cheated*

[sly mango]

Anyone have tips for beating mantis lords

[graceful storm]

well

[shrewd nymph]

cheese is like stagger resetting fc

its something thats in the game but a little op

thats just cheating

[royal helm]

does leg eater actually eat legs

[graceful storm]

i wanna do p5 WITHOUT CHEATING so i can lift this burden off me

[kind sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/can-i-get-uhhh-uh-uhh-uhhhh-uhhhhh-gif-16027964425850179471

[shrewd nymph]

why did you cheat p5ab?

[finite ember]

how do i know which one i have

[graceful storm]

i didnt wanna bother with the pantheons

back then

[placid gull]

the silksong has been defeated in my nail art only run, atleast the first time

[shrewd nymph]

why p5ab and not p5 though

[graceful storm]

i cheated all pantheons all bindings

[kind sigil]

have you been through the crystal mound?

[shrewd nymph]

p5ab isnt even an achievement

[finite ember]

i think

[kind sigil]

check inv too

[buoyant lagoon]

desolate dives = 20 if you hit the whole thing every time
descending dark = 11-12

[finite ember]

yep descening dark

[graceful storm]

i cheated p5 and decided to do all bindings since might aswell

[buoyant lagoon]

with shaman stone, maybe like 8 or 9

(descending darks)

[graceful storm]

now i feel shame

[finite ember]

ok so i got a REALLY good method!!1

[buoyant lagoon]

but hitting the entire spell is kinda tough on hornet

[kind sigil]

guess whos on switch and cant cheat

[finite ember]

corner

[slate ferry]

tiso was such a fakeout... i really thought he was him

[buoyant lagoon]

she moves like a baby spider on crack

[finite ember]

thew CORNERRRR

[graceful storm]

u

[finite ember]

[graceful storm]

i wanna do a new save file but i wanna rescue zote

[kind sigil]

Correct! You win a !

[royal helm]

[graceful storm]

[finite ember]

how many times of her getting stunned like laying down or wtv does she need to fully die

[hidden spire]

Cro

[finite ember]

[buoyant lagoon]

[graceful storm]

[finite ember]

[graceful storm]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-cra-silksong-craw-crow-gif-9503521906111528769

[hidden spire]

Hello cra

[autumn ice]

staggers are based on hit count not on hp

[hidden spire]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-cro-crow-team-crow-hello-animal-gif-7086727397455856012

[buoyant lagoon]

almost 6

[finite ember]

im asking how many staggers with my nail level til shes dead

erm

[buoyant lagoon]

with nail 1

[shrewd nymph]

depends on spell usage though

[finite ember]

good enough

[shrewd nymph]

and combos

[finite ember]

with just nail too

[autumn ice]

and combo staggers

[finite ember]

omg

[shrewd nymph]

if you hit here more often then she staggers more

[buoyant lagoon]

if u use nothing but nail then yeah

[heavy barn]

are you getting combo staggers at all

[shrewd nymph]

its not worth counting anyways

[buoyant lagoon]

you'll need to hit her almost 80 times

[finite ember]

no

[heavy barn]

you could also just search for the hp on the wiki and divide by your nail damage

[hidden spire]

Why not use lumafly modding

hp mod

[autumn ice]

cheating ded

[royal scaffold]

cheating is wimpy

[hidden spire]

Lumafly is always nice to have

just download it

[royal scaffold]

oh wait you mean like a boss bar?

[hidden spire]

Yes?

Health bar

[finite ember]

this game suks @buoyant lagoon i cant find a good strat for my stats

any tips?

or strategys

[earnest apex]

[royal scaffold]

what stats

[finite ember]

hold on

u want everything?

[royal scaffold]

uh

[royal scaffold]

wtf

[buoyant lagoon]

well you are kinda underprepared for hornet 2 ngl

[languid gale]

nice progression gng

[languid gale]

kingdoms edge to ancient basin

[royal scaffold]

oh

[languid gale]

instead of waterways to basin

[royal scaffold]

its you

[buoyant lagoon]

nah bro but what are those charms 😭

[royal scaffold]

who was asking about broken vessel

[buoyant lagoon]

go buy shaman stone i beg you

[royal scaffold]

with three usable combat charms

[finite ember]

what does it do

[buoyant lagoon]

it makes your spells turbo broken

[languid gale]

makes spells deal more damage

[royal scaffold]

spells are buffed to hell

[finite ember]

also i dont have compass which i really need for map

[graceful storm]

Imagine cheating

[buoyant lagoon]

especially the void ones

[royal scaffold]

50% damage buffs (roughly)

unbreakable strength but its for spells

[autumn ice]

just like

go somewhere else

[graceful storm]

U will never catch ME cheat

[autumn ice]

explore

[finite ember]

im gonna get compass on for now

[autumn ice]

if you cant beat the boss

[finite ember]

because it really helps

[graceful storm]

Every Metroidvania literally

[finite ember]

rude????

[languid gale]

33-51% depending on the spell

[autumn ice]

i mean you appear to be struggling

[royal scaffold]

ye

[finite ember]

so if i keep dying it helps

[autumn ice]

i'm not saying you like physically cannot beat the boss or anything

[finite ember]

now i ALWAYS get to the spike attacks

[graceful storm]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-wake-up-hollow-knight-faridulasimanet-hollow-kngiht-silksong-gif-17990527362453898366

[autumn ice]

but you are asking for advice on the boss, and this is my advice

[buoyant lagoon]

wait is this your first run ever?

[finite ember]

👍

[buoyant lagoon]

oh

then absolutely go explore

[graceful storm]

How much storage space do I need for HK?

[languid gale]

like 5gb

[buoyant lagoon]

you're trying to tackle a mid-late game boss with early game items

[graceful storm]

that's it? Not 50?

[shrewd nymph]

just go explore other areas and gear up, you've been asking for tips for 2 hours now man

[languid gale]

no

its a small game

[graceful storm]

not 50gb?

[buoyant lagoon]

maybe if you are cracked at the game you could do it but if it's your first it's gonna be nearly impossible

[graceful storm]

Including DLCs it's just 5gb?

[languid gale]

not sure the exact amount

but fs -10gb

[royal scaffold]

i spent a horrendous amount of time trying to beat hornet sentinel way before progression

like

no dreams

dreamers*

no monarch wings

[autumn ice]

says 7.43 gb on my steam

[royal scaffold]

and early on in general

[graceful storm]

I tried defeating Markoth the instant I reached Kingdom's Edge for the first time

[languid gale]

how much storage do u have

[autumn ice]

do you not need shade cloak for markoth

am i forgetting something

[royal scaffold]

you do

[buoyant lagoon]

there's a shade gate yes

[royal scaffold]

i call cap sherma

you'd have to tackle hornet sentinel and go to abyss first

therefore it would be your second time at least

[buoyant lagoon]

maybe he was playing rando

[shrewd meadow]

not physically possible because to reach markoth you must first get shade cloak which is locked behind kings brand which is locked behind hornet 2 which is in kingdoms edge

nice try tho

[autumn ice]

ppl lying in hkmain how could this be

[finite ember]

where do i buy

[languid gale]

salubra

[royal scaffold]

who the fuck plays rando for their first playthrough

[languid gale]

bottom right of crossroads

[royal scaffold]

weirdo in the bott
