hk-discussion

[wide jolt]

i mean, i've had bv just slide across the ground when he's stunned, but nothing like that

[ocean wyvern]

Ive had that with hornet too but i think i can tell the speedrunning community abt this cuz ive never seen any speedrunner do it before

[red cliff]

I have only tried p5 a few times but i feel like it's going to be harder to get done than steel soul 100%

[grizzled elm]

@shy furnace @knotty crag

Gg

[wide jolt]

maybe not that hard, really at the end of the day, just lock in and prepare to beat abs rad

[knotty crag]

YES

I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT

[wide jolt]

shaw

[grizzled elm]

Thank you very much, your tips were very helpful.

[knotty crag]

Enjoy your dash dude

[grizzled elm]

Yes yes

[ocean wyvern]

Also i think ik how to do it but the timing is kinda hard

[red cliff]

You're ready for absolute radiance

[ocean wyvern]

Nice

[grizzled elm]

What? This boss isn't easy compared to her?

[knotty crag]

No, Radiant Absolute Radiance.

[grizzled elm]

Huh

[knotty crag]

Adino

[wide jolt]

adino

[red cliff]

you got it champ i trust you

[wide jolt]

hornet is significantly harder than abs rad

[grizzled elm]

I think I tried for hours, adding up all the hours (I believe 2 or 3 hours).

[grizzled elm]

That is great

[red cliff]

Is this your first metroidvania?

[grizzled elm]

So what should I do now? Huh

I don't have geo.

[grizzled elm]

Yes

[knotty crag]

I can't believe someone beat HK following all of Zote's precepts

[grizzled elm]

I never liked this type of game, but Hollow Knight is amazing.

[red cliff]

I would say it's my most favorite

[grizzled elm]

I love the story of this game.

[wide jolt]

explore stuff you couldn't before

[grizzled elm]

And apparently the community is very good too.

[blissful sparrow]

FINALLY

[wide jolt]

i'm pretty awesome, ik

[knotty crag]

I love metroidvanias

I've beaten 3

[grizzled elm]

A store I saw in a video.

[knotty crag]

Well 2 and a half

[grizzled elm]

AHHH I should go to the store, buy the shaman, save Sly, and then go to the mushroom area.

[knotty crag]

I haven't finish HK fully

[red cliff]

Which ones?

[knotty crag]

Haak and Silksong

[grizzled elm]

Congratulations

Gentlemen, I'm going back to the game and I intend to get the praying mantis claws soon.

[light snow]

now do it again with a flower

[red cliff]

First one doesn't ring any bell

[wide jolt]

oh good, that one is fun

[blissful sparrow]

ik...ik...;bout to get it rn...

[red cliff]

I've played ori, blasphemous and castlevania besides hk and silksong

[grizzled elm]

Yes

[knotty crag]

It's an unpopular game but I won't go on talking about another game in a HK server

[grizzled elm]

I think motivation is the key to any boss fight. While I was fighting Hornet, I was excited, but not greedy; I was landing hits gradually.

[wide jolt]

the pale king would execute you

[red cliff]

That's okay I'll look it up later

[blissful sparrow]

I definitely can see it

[red cliff]

This ghost FEELS

[knotty crag]

I love the sense of beating a boss you struggled on

[grizzled elm]

Gentlemen, there is work to be done, I need more geo-referencing, I need to go further.

[wide jolt]

beat game

[grizzled elm]

Goodbye

I'll be back later.

[knotty crag]

Byebye

[dull acorn]

hello everyone

[wide jolt]

[blissful sparrow]

RIGHT? its so nice

[dull acorn]

yes it is i

[wide jolt]

skarrsinger was the most recent one for me

[knotty crag]

I love refighting her

[proud haven]

Or it's bad

[knotty crag]

My favourite

[wide jolt]

i've only beaten her once lol, although i made a new file in ss literally so i can just refight every boss

silk song

[proud haven]

Oh

[wide jolt]

boi deleted message

[proud haven]

U can't talk about anything silksong in this channel fr

They will mute u

I'd delete it if I were u ong

[wide jolt]

oh wait, i lowkey thought this was general

[proud haven]

Based reason fr

[wide jolt]

eh, a brief mention is forgivable i think

[proud haven]

I played ss but I was so deadass when I was asking what's that boss u mentioned
Forgot the name entirely

[wide jolt]

fav hk boss?

[proud haven]

Zote

Then absrad

[shy furnace]

GGS MAN

[proud haven]

Then pv

The rest suck

[ancient ravine]

Radiant gpz was easier than expected
took two tries

[proud haven]

Try two hundred thousand

[shy furnace]

@grizzled elm gg!

[proud haven]

Million

[ancient ravine]

https://tenor.com/view/grimm-gif-8425971839831984770

[wide jolt]

i beg to differ, nkg is my fav, although pv and radiance and sisters of battle are pretty good

[ancient ravine]

no thanks

[proud haven]

The vibes and the music cook hard but I waas just being dramatic when I said the rest suck and would have nkg in the next like 2 or 3 fosho

[wide jolt]

i wonder how many hours that would be

[wild musk]

hello canadians

[wide jolt]

ello

[ancient ravine]

got it

[wild musk]

your motha

[ancient ravine]

what should i do next

[wide jolt]

abs rad

[ancient ravine]

alr

[ancient ravine]

hell nah

[nimble trench]

xero lost kin and nosk radiant are pretty easy

[ancient ravine]

nosk? nah he's annoying i'll save it for later

[proud haven]

No eyes and xero and oro and mato and sheo and nosk and winged nosk r all genuinely easy
So I'd say those
So u feel super accomplished and motivated to get to the hard ones

[nimble trench]

winged nosk also
plus if you pray for good marmu rng they go down decently quickly

[proud haven]

Cuz u can probably do those in a day

If u lock in

[vivid creek]

Save a couple easy ones to take a break from the hard ones tho

[ancient ravine]

i have some studies

[proud haven]

Ur list will look a lot more complete without much need for huge growth ins kill

In skill*

[proud haven]

I did all my shitty garbage ones at the end after locking in super hard after beating radabsrad

[wide jolt]

you have it clipped?

[vivid creek]

Yea I did absrad about halfway through
Last one was PV

[proud haven]

Like hornet 2 watcher knights soul tyrant obbles and sly I think were the ones I did super late

[autumn ice]

hornet 2 is not garbage what the helly

[ancient ravine]

1-sheo
2-marmu
3-lost kin
4-xero
5-oro&mato
6-winged nosk
7-nosk

[nimble trench]

i think rad gpz was the 2nd to last one i did then absrad was last

[wide jolt]

idk that anyone said she was garbage tbh with you

[vivid creek]

She's definitely not great

[ancient ravine]

u mea love?

[autumn ice]

well connor did all the shitty ones after absrad and then said that he did hornet 2 late

[nimble trench]

hornet 2 insta dash

[autumn ice]

there's a certain implication there

[light snow]

RANDOM SPIKES GO!! 🔥 🔥

[autumn ice]

instashaw is bad sure

[wide jolt]

hornet 2 is alright

[wide jolt]

i see

[proud haven]

Apparently no not like normal

[wide jolt]

shame

[nimble trench]

thats my only problem with hornet 2
otherwise its whatever

[autumn ice]

but idk it's a fun fight with good pacing and stuff

[vivid creek]

Hornet 2 is pretty jank

[autumn ice]

not top tier but pretty good

[proud haven]

Shitty in terms of I sucked really bad at it at the time and viewed it as hellishly hard

I had like

[autumn ice]

ah sure

[proud haven]

Niche skissue

[wide jolt]

idk that i'm going push myself to do anything more difficult in hk than complete p5

[autumn ice]

yeah i assumed that it was the same thing with sly

[proud haven]

With like 6 bosses

[autumn ice]

bc like

rad sly is not all that either

[proud haven]

Nah opposite actually

I'm too good at sly

[nimble trench]

nah ive seen quite a few people have trouble with hornet 2

[proud haven]

I think he's boring

konk shoo

[autumn ice]

can see that

[wide jolt]

he was easy for me, i beat him first try in p3

[nimble trench]

sly is the one boss i put on heavy blow for

[wild musk]

who the hell is hornet

[vivid creek]

Sly's pretty fun

Consistent, good pacing
I wish hornet sentinal was as good as sly

[wide jolt]

slik snog

[autumn ice]

i'm realizing that i dont actually have a strong opinion on sly

[nimble trench]

he is but ehh hes fun enough to play through imo

[wild musk]

Who the hell is Zote?

[wide jolt]

awesome guy

[proud haven]

Bro every time I scroll through my youtube I can't fucking believe the worst game I've ever played in my whole fucking life and uploaded as a joke copyright struck me when I had 6 views we can't be fr bro

Just got reminded of that

[autumn ice]

💀

[proud haven]

Exploria is so peak

[wide jolt]

this message will be taken down for copyright

[wild musk]

Who the hell is Nightmare King Grimm?

[wide jolt]

idk bro

[proud haven]

If u guys wanna give money to exploria via my copyright claim here's the AMAZING
JAWDROPPING
BEAUTIFUL INTRO TO EXPLORIA https://www.youtube.com/live/ZE9sJCDWETk?si=btQFtOx0fK_3YkFo

copyrighted by 4 different in game songs is crazy

That's probably just every single one that played

For each view exploria devs will get .0001 penny

They deserve it for such a good game

Unnecessary rant ong I'm normally more on topic I just can't believe I even have been copyright stricken fr

[hollow nova]

I'd copyright strike you too if you tagged my masterpiece with #skibiditoilet

[proud haven]

Maybe my fault lowkey

I thought skibidi toilet fans would come flocking to the video surely

The animation style is the same if u really focus

[grizzled elm]

I have 350 geo, I'm going to gather 700, buy 2 shaman stones to help me, and I'm going to buy the station.

[proud haven]

No shot u can buy two of those

Don't trust the people telling u that's an option they lied fr

[grizzled elm]

I'm still collecting geographies.

[proud haven]

U only get 1

[grizzled elm]

Geo*

[proud haven]

Geographies is crazy

[wild musk]

i have 5 geo

[grizzled elm]

._.

[grizzled elm]

Lol

[proud haven]

Shaman stone is a one time charm fr

[grizzled elm]

That's really sad, so all I need to do is save up a little more, I'm going to buy my location from the map.

[proud haven]

Can't like double stack it

Based I love compass

[royal scaffold]

imagine consumable charms

[grizzled elm]

And I might buy the station markers.

[graceful storm]

why did my charger stop working?

[grizzled elm]

And I will be ready to move forward.

Gentlemen, what do you think would actually be useful to buy?

I have an idea of what might be useful, but I'm not sure.

It's easy to get geo

[blissful thistle]

I found him to be easier than nailmasters 🙏

[polar niche]

Yes

I agree

But not me

[misty moss]

walk away from him while he slashes twice, then after he jumps and spins dash in and hit him twice with nail

[wraith prawn]

ngl

[misty moss]

honestly just wait for him to attack then punish

thats it

[wraith prawn]

sly is easier for me than the nailmasters for some reason

i just

:/

not really used to multiple bosses at once

but

call em bad

[thorny silo]

Also paintmaster was sooo easy 2nd try

[wraith prawn]

i find them hard

allthough

[misty moss]

ngl i struggled a bit at oro and mato with bindings

[wraith prawn]

watcher knights

were easy

[thorny silo]

[polar niche]

It hit me so deep after being run over by them

[polar niche]

I never got better

[wraith prawn]

[thorny silo]

Might have too I genuenly can't remember

Might've been 1st or 2nd try

[polar niche]

I played hk with keyboard

And man

[wraith prawn]

Foot In Mouth Syndrome

[polar niche]

but

console must be a nightmare

[polar niche]

Atleast now my mind is set on a ps5 controller

[weak light]

This was made by professor noodles

[devout dome]

would yall say p3 or p4 is harder all bindings

[tidal jewel]

Someone should make a path of pain simulator kinda like bad time simulator

[polar niche]

Ehhhh

[tidal jewel]

So I could play it in school

[weak light]

P3

[weak light]

No

[polar niche]

Depends

[tidal jewel]

P4 has no eyes and watcher knights and markoth

[wraith prawn]

rlly?

[polar niche]

Controller

[devout dome]

just normal markoth tho right?

[polar niche]

Is so much easier

[wraith prawn]

i just play keyboard more than xbox and such

[polar niche]

Since u dont cramp

[wraith prawn]

thats prob why

[tidal jewel]

Yes the floor is there thank god

[wraith prawn]

LOL

fr

but

only one i will definately find hard and find hard are markoth and pure vessel

and absolute radiance

[weak light]

I only find AbsRad hard

[wraith prawn]

only reason why NKG was hard was because the music was cool and he was cool

other than that

[rose peak]

U hve no idea abt markoth

[weak light]

I need to scrape by markoth in anyway then dreamnail failed champion to fill hp and soul so NKG easy

[wraith prawn]

got his patterns down

[weak light]

Shade soul go brr

[rose peak]

Ok bro

[weak light]

Maybe we just have different playstyles

[wraith prawn]

true

[rose peak]

U need to hit markoth to get soul too?

[weak light]

I go in with almost all soul from soul tyrant

Then just line markoth up and spam in between spears

[wraith prawn]

https://tenor.com/view/silksong-purple-hollow-purple-hollow-knight-hornet-gif-7738007478703433910

[wild sierra]

3 of those arnt even hard and the first is only hard on ascended/radiant

[sick cypress]

Yo can I get some help understanding this

[wild sierra]

No

[wraith prawn]

we can all agree

this little guy

[sick cypress]

I don’t know how

[uneven holly]

Hi

[weak light]

I think the game registers the dreamer dead for no reason happened on one of my brothers runs
He died to gruz mother and it lagged and it registered gruz mother as dead and sly as saved

[sick cypress]

Ok thanks

[wild sierra]

I can’t do Markoth ima see what I can do later

[silk beacon]

yeah ascended markoth now feels kinda okish

[arctic kestrel]

[weak light]

What advice would u give to someone trying to do radiant HoG

[wild sierra]

Bc I just focused on that part … I don’t speedrun other things

[wild sierra]

My friend had the game for 2 years and he only has 200 hours

[silk beacon]

gg, but shaman + flukenest is much faster than this i think

[wild sierra]

I don’t got no lingerers

[keen thorn]

That means you've played on average 5.6 hours per day

Im taking a 4 year breka now

If linger hitboxes actually lingered they’d be op but it was patched

[weak light]

I’ve had it for a couple months and have about 200
Balancing HK with HKS which I have a 100 something hours in and still studying for midterms is hard

[keen thorn]

It still does

[wild sierra]

Nope

[silk beacon]

have u tried boundless infinity?

[keen thorn]

Yes

[wild sierra]

Yep

[tidal jewel]

So is flukenest like balanced or still broken currently

[rose peak]

Ok

[keen thorn]

It is op

[wild sierra]

It didn’t load so I gave up

[weak light]

50/50

[keen thorn]

Although flukeenst needs a lot of skill

[rose peak]

Its a fun bossfight

[tidal jewel]

Hmmm

[keen thorn]

If you just equip it you're probably not doing much

[wild sierra]

It don’t linger I think

[silk beacon]

yeah fr

[keen thorn]

It requires a lot of knowledge and specific experience with the charm to actually be worth

[tidal jewel]

So it’s basically just double dmg on shade soul when close no bugs no nothing?

[keen thorn]

It still does

[weak light]

What’s ur advice for me in a steel soul run

[wild sierra]

Probe

[rose peak]

I like parrying everything

[wild sierra]

In 1.5.8 or whatever

[weak light]

Cross stitch enjoyer

[keen thorn]

If it weren't bugged yeah, and that's what is going to be mostly if you don't know how to use it

Flukenest is one of the most skilful charms in the entire game

[rose peak]

Nug uh

[keen thorn]

Probably the most

[silk beacon]

what does that mean?

[tidal jewel]

How would you use it effectively

[rose peak]

Prob one of the best charms too

[keen thorn]

Lp it still lingers, it is literally used in speedruns and challenges
The last beta didn't patch it yet

[weak light]

Use it when a boss shifts a hitbox for a fluke to deal double damage

[keen thorn]

That too

[keen thorn]

Learning

A lot of learning

[tidal jewel]

Quadruple dmg is what you’re saying?

[keen thorn]

Well, in general you want to rush a black spell, either shade soul or ddadk

[rose peak]

Im going to sleep

[keen thorn]

With that you can kill everything super quickly

[tidal jewel]

Is it more dmg that AS

[keen thorn]

The hardest part is going to be getting there

[weak light]

I remember spamming it against nosk and beating him in seconds

[weak light]

I got shade soul, channeled nail and c dash

[rose peak]

I dont loke flying nosk :(

[keen thorn]

Hitboxes linger after hitting an enemy, and if an enemy walks into the hitbox it will get hit

[weak light]

I have a feeling we would be friends

[keen thorn]

Thus if an enemy leaves the hotbox and enters again it hits twice

[rose peak]

:O

[tidal jewel]

Hmm ok

[vocal crypt]

meth

[tidal jewel]

Makes sense

[keen thorn]

Some bosses like Galien are just broken tho and get hit like 100 times lol

[rose peak]

Gng what

[tidal jewel]

So you’re basically just creating a big area of big damage and killing

[autumn ice]

steel soul you wanna rush the strong upgrades in general

[keen thorn]

Yes

[rose peak]

Yeah

[tidal jewel]

Sounds balanced

[weak light]

A big aoe attack pretty much

[rose peak]

Defo is

[weak light]

Most useful on bosses like dung defender

[autumn ice]

you get to nail 3, 8 notches with heart str shaman, ddark, shade soul pretty quickly if you go aggressive for those things

[rose peak]

Doma doma ?

[keen thorn]

I'm pretty sure they didn't, unless they've changed the beta again
But it's still a beta

[weak light]

Yes sherma DOMA DOMA

[tidal jewel]

I know old flukenest was broken as shit

[rose peak]

Is was.

[tidal jewel]

Like killing 6 watcher knights at once or getting mountains of geo from the gold husk

[weak light]

It could break ur screen too

[weak light]

gorgeous husk was the most random enemy ever

[keen thorn]

The easiest to get value of are Gruz, Dung and White
Watchers, LK, BV, Champ, are fine ish
The rest are really hard

[rose peak]

I could get anyboss 1 shot (kind of)

[keen thorn]

Oh also Marmu and Galien

You can also just use trapping for Smaster and Tyrant even if you don't do multis

Same goes for mossie

[weak light]

I will never forgive team cherry for not adding an NG+

[keen thorn]

Oh also soul warrior is not that hard

[tidal jewel]

I mean they half implemented it with godmaster mode

But that’s just the pantheons nothing else

Kinda meh

[weak light]

Yeah

[tidal jewel]

Unless you use storage or whatever

[weak light]

I’m on console

[tidal jewel]

Same

[weak light]

Console players are like the middle children

[rose peak]

When di du get the kast %

[tidal jewel]

At least we’re not Nintendo users amirite

[weak light]

Like 2 weeks ago
On the last day of 2025

[rose peak]

[weak light]

Fr

[rose peak]

Or a, i tripping

[weak light]

[rose peak]

Ok

Im sleeping now cya

[tidal jewel]

[gloomy urchin]

Oh, well say hi to groal for me next time you see them. They helped me change my tire when I was stranded on the road, free of charge. That they is pretty great

[tidal jewel]

Thk post scream theme

[weak light]

U do know he stole that tire and put drugs in it right?
It was in the pharloom vision newspaper

[tidal jewel]

Wait I got 112 should I put that on my name

Is that cheesy

[weak light]

Nope not at all

[tidal jewel]

Ahh yes

Clever

[gloomy urchin]

Oh cool, so I can get drug money from my new tire? What a great and courteous they

[tidal jewel]

Cus I already had a number in my name

[weak light]

Yeah but be careful
That’s shamanuana

[finite ember]

stupid trail of wariors

warriors

[weak light]

Only take smol doses or you’ll be void

[finite ember]

any tipss

[tidal jewel]

Trial of the fool is even worse

[finite ember]

cool

[weak light]

The first second or third?

[finite ember]

the first

[tidal jewel]

Wait is that the first one or the pale ore one

Oh

[finite ember]

the notch one

[weak light]

What charms u using

[devout dome]

lets go bro i just beat absolute inferno KG hitless‼️

[tidal jewel]

Remember to keep an enemy alive so you can heal before the next wave

[weak light]

Let’s goo

[finite ember]

shaman stone and quick slash

[weak light]

What else

[finite ember]

i got to the things that drop orange stuff but died

[tidal jewel]

Spell twister grubsong?

[finite ember]

thats it???

[tidal jewel]

Can u fit those?

[weak light]

Your definitely too underleveled

What is ur nail

[tidal jewel]

Did you get all the slots from Salbura?

[wind garnet]

Yeah maybe go power up and come back

There’s a lot of game to this game

[weak light]

Get the coiled nail

And maybe get some spell upgrades

[tidal jewel]

Get pure nail in 2 bosses

[tidal jewel]

Shade soul and ddark mainly

[static charm]

I FUCKING DID IT I FINALLY BEAT PANTHEON 3 🔥 🔥

[weak light]

Ahh yes
But what about idk, THE TRIAL OF THE CONQUEROR

[weak light]

best feeling ever

[tidal jewel]

Oh shooiotttt

[static charm]

how hard is pure vessel

[wind garnet]

Good luck pantheon 4

[static charm]

am i utterly fucked

[weak light]

Yes

[languid gale]

no

[wind garnet]

Pretty rough

[tidal jewel]

Sly finally dying after flinging himself like a beyblade

[languid gale]

hes the 2nd hardestb oss

[weak light]

For the first attempts yes
But I’ll get it

[languid gale]

kinda hard

[tidal jewel]

It’s like nkg but harder

[static charm]

oh yeah right absrad

[weak light]

There’s a cheese

[static charm]

-# i banished the troupe so i never fought nkg proper 🔥

[tidal jewel]

Killing him in 2 shade souls?

[languid gale]

abs rad is a lot harder

the top 3 bosses (nkg, pv, abs rad) are all easy once you practice though

[tidal jewel]

[wind garnet]

He’s fast like nkg but punishes you for aggression and less clearer dodge moments I guess

[tidal jewel]

Nkg is honestly really easy once you get him down

[weak light]

Nope
Evading him by hugging the upper walls with wall cling and waiting till he beyblades then get 2 hits

Rinse and repeat

[weak light]

Just don’t let ur mistakes snowball

[static charm]

andddd just lost my P4 run to lost kin k

[wind garnet]

Keep going

[tidal jewel]

Hk speedrunning looks fun lowkey

[static charm]

those fucking balloons that ibhate

[wind garnet]

Depends on wat u run

[worthy peak]

bruh.

[tidal jewel]

Dung defender charm

[wind garnet]

Low% 💀

[languid gale]

it is

until you die to watchers and have to restart

[static charm]

defenders crest?

[weak light]

This happened so much
Practice PV
Kill PV comfortably
Lose to other bosses bc I didn’t practice them
Get to PV
Die bc I spent time practing the other bosses

[tidal jewel]

Yeah

[wind garnet]

You just practiced poorly

Or too little

[static charm]

wait what non refight boss is in P4

[weak light]

Wdym

[tidal jewel]

You mean the final boss?

Like sly and mató and oro and sheo those guys?

[languid gale]

probably referring to bosses that arent rematches

[static charm]

most bosses in P4 are refights (lost kin for example being a refight of broken vessel)

[languid gale]

such as pure vessel

[static charm]

not them

[languid gale]

depends since you may not have fought certain ones yet that are possible before p4

[wind garnet]

Oh like 4 or 5 supreme

[weak light]

Almost all are dreams and rematches except the final one

[hollow forge]

traitor lord, markoth, no eyes

[languid gale]

in p4 its pv

[worthy peak]

DMs exist you know. Also I probably have some right to silence here

[tidal jewel]

Oh like traitor lord watcher knights no eyes and stuff?

[hollow forge]

uhhhhhhhbhbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

[finite ember]

bad apple

[static charm]

yeah

[hollow forge]

yeah watcher knights

[static charm]

WHERES ZOTE THE MIGHTY ONGGGG

[hollow forge]

zote is in p3

[static charm]

grey prince zote but yeah

[tidal jewel]

I didn’t have zote for p3

[wind garnet]

Bro you can do Pantheons unless you clear all the bosses

[static charm]

God i HATE that mf gpz

[languid gale]

[weak light]

Let him die my first playthrough 🧐

[tidal jewel]

I indeed am

[hollow forge]

hes such a fucking run ender

life ender

like his weapon

[static charm]

i let him die in my steel soul

[hollow forge]

actually annoying

[languid gale]

absolute nightmare king invincible fearless sensual mysterious enchanting vigourous dilligent overwhelming gorgeous passionate terrifying beautiful grey princess zote 3.0 is so annoying

[tidal jewel]

Honestly the room with the godseeker should heal you to full

In pantheons

[static charm]

ong

[weak light]

Alongside his life ender

[static charm]

what

[tidal jewel]

I like ur funny words magic man

[hollow forge]

https://tenor.com/view/guy-arguing-guy-talking-to-wall-talking-brick-wall-gif-18667615

[static charm]

What is dude talking about 😭

[worthy peak]

lots of buzz words here! :)

[weak light]

The masks and dreamers were killed

I have a question

[static charm]

wtf

[hollow forge]

it depends

[wind garnet]

Anyway rip could’ve been record

[tidal jewel]

Probably like “I’m a black Bosnian woman”

[weak light]

Why didn’t the knight just u know, take the masks of the dreamers and smash them on the ground

[worthy peak]

I think you are toeing the line of getting mods called on you

[tidal jewel]

Idk about bosnians man

[static charm]

Jellyfish

[weak light]

😭

[tidal jewel]

Any Balkan in that matter

[wind garnet]

Asked for someone’s race and weird comment just now <@&283547423706447872>

[hollow forge]

the cloaks and masks are there just for decorative purposes i think

[tidal jewel]

The mask maker made them with flex seal idk

[heady umbra]

The fuck?

[wind garnet]

Read more

[weak light]

Just put some electricity jn monomons bath

[static charm]

the scene RIGHT before monomons body is shown:

[hollow forge]

oh shit yeah probably

[wind garnet]

Anyway hai joker

[hollow forge]

yeah i forgot about that

[weak light]

Is this an ad

[static charm]

maybe it only applies to monomon tho

sybau

[tidal jewel]

Kasaa

[wind garnet]

#hk-discussion message then what about this shit

[hollow forge]

the masks probably send them off into the dream realm and maybe its the cloaks that keep them asleep

[wind garnet]

Straight up racist comments

[hollow forge]

like when you put a blanket over a parrots cage

you know

[static charm]

Gang

[wind garnet]

Yeah ur cooked bud

[digital abyss]

hi eloki

[wind garnet]

Oj

[digital abyss]

hi

[wind garnet]

Did you stop playing shadow server

[heady umbra]

oh

[digital abyss]

yea

[heady umbra]

I didn’t even know they were gonna meme ping

[wind garnet]

Lowkey same lol

[heady umbra]

I coulda added that to the ban reason

got me fucked up fr

[vivid creek]

oof

[wind garnet]

I didn’t either lol

[heady umbra]

Thanks for the ping

[static charm]

thank u for banning them tho 🔥

[tidal jewel]

Hmm jjba

[wind garnet]

Buh bye

[digital abyss]

i beat the game with eloki then kinda did nothing after

[hollow forge]

mild hk lore territory but i still dont understand what exactly the connection between 3 people sleeping and the temple being sealed is

[tidal jewel]

Sounds good

[heady umbra]

well the cloaks don’t do anything

[heady umbra]

We’re not told they’re magical

[tidal jewel]

I do like me some jojos bizarre adventure

[heady umbra]

as for the masks, those have seals on them that seemingly protect them from physical harm

[wind garnet]

Really bad decision to leave the end opened at least the dragon

[weak light]

Sleepy people make rock strong

[static charm]

also am i missing a charm notch in godseeker mode or am i tweaking

[heady umbra]

ur tweaking

[tidal jewel]

You have 11 right

[wind garnet]

Also bro blaze and caves is dumb as fuck

[weak light]

U have 11

[hollow forge]

oh yeah that makes sense

[digital abyss]

eh for me personally i wouldntve played without it thats what i enjoy doing

[static charm]

dont u get a twelvth one from grimm or does he give the 11th charm notch

i lowkey am tweaking

[tidal jewel]

Nope

[weak light]

11

[tidal jewel]

11 in total

[static charm]

yeah i mustve been tweaking 😭

[tidal jewel]

I wonder do hollow knight players also play souls games

[static charm]

also WHERE TF IS MY GOAT CARELESS MELODY

[tidal jewel]

They assume you have defeated the good boss

[static charm]

Oh

[vivid creek]

careless, new charm
CLM > CFM

[tidal jewel]

So there you have grimmchild instead

[static charm]

They assume u defeated NKG

Fuck

[tidal jewel]

Yes

Because they need Nkg in the pantheon

[hollow tulip]

Reminder to breathe

[tidal jewel]

I mean at least you don’t have to waste 2 notches on a grimmchild you can’t use

[weak light]

Bc godseekers hate us even tho we same as pure vessel

[vivid creek]

NKG shows up in p5 regardless of whether or not overworld NKG was defeated

[tidal jewel]

We are just a smaller more deadly version of pv

Pv basically just got a new body cuz the pale king is rich asf

[finite ember]

what are the best charms to cheese grimm

[weak light]

Yes

[tidal jewel]

None

[light snow]

void plastic surgery

[tidal jewel]

Just fight him

[finite ember]

no

hes too hard

[hollow forge]

qs mop

[hearty monolith]

regular grimm?

[finite ember]

yes

[blissful thistle]

What did they say?

[light snow]

bro

come on

[weak light]

Spoiled kid
But “no cost too great”

[tidal jewel]

Yeah just use quick slash and any other dmg boosts

[hearty monolith]

he not that hard, just watch for his patterns

[hollow forge]

after u bear nkg it will seem like childs play lol

[light snow]

its regular grimm

[vivid creek]

Some racist stuff

[light snow]

you can do this

[blissful thistle]

Oh

[tidal jewel]

Yeah they didn’t have to go through Deepnest like us

[finite ember]

what is nkg

[hollow forge]

but basically just attack him when he does the bat flame thing and the spikes if ur close enough and you should be fine. just focus on dodging a lot

[tidal jewel]

Don’t worry he’s a pushover

[hollow forge]

nightmare king grimm

[blissful thistle]

..

[tidal jewel]

Just worry about Grimm right now

[tidal jewel]

(Took me 2 days)

[weak light]

Yeah, what are their feats huh
Failing an entire civilization

[hollow forge]

it gets really easy after the first win i promise

[silk beacon]

me too lol im a coward

[finite ember]

also im doing the cheese where you do abyss shriek during his pufferfish attack

idk what charms to use

[blissful thistle]

I almost died to grimm in steel soul because i have muscle memory to dash through him but i didnt have shade cloak at the time

[hollow forge]

i dont recommend that cuz you can take damage very easily

[blissful thistle]

Do it once maybe

[hollow forge]

yeah

when its absolutely free of flames at the bottom

[hearty monolith]

do u have unbreakable charms

[hollow forge]

but dont get cocky

[tidal jewel]

Learn the fight well so you won’t have that hard of a time with nkg

[hearty monolith]

if your really struggling you should get them if you dont already

[hollow forge]

strength is a godsend

[blissful thistle]

Who needs unbreakable charms, just dont die

[hearty monolith]

me who has 106% in the game and has done 3 pantheons, still gets carried by them

[hollow forge]

steel soul mindset

a moment of silence for everyone in steel soul who paid money to divine

[static charm]

winged nosk is vengefly king two right

[light snow]

do it for the completion

[hearty monolith]

wouldnt have beaten pop if it werent for unbreakable strength

[blissful thistle]

How do you only have 106 when you have done 3 pantheons

[hearty monolith]

skill

[blissful thistle]

What 5% do you not have

[tidal jewel]

Tbh nail builds kinda suck without unstr you kinda have to go with twister shaman

[light snow]

technically vengefly king three there's already two vengefly kings

[hollow forge]

funny thing is unbreakable charms register the same as breakable charms in regards to completion, both are 3%

[hollow forge]

as long as they dont break, that is

which if youre on steel soul already doesnt need to be said

[hearty monolith]

ive gotten the 10th extra mask

[blissful thistle]

Yeah every charm slot filled out is a percentage

[tidal jewel]

What percent are you missing btw just wondering

[vivid creek]

Send pic of your charms page

[blissful thistle]

10th mask?

[hearty monolith]

yes

[hollow forge]

p4

[tidal jewel]

Oh

Good luck with that

[vivid creek]

Probably has heart on

[blissful thistle]

There is not tenth mask

[hollow forge]

[topaz nacelle]

The fact I did that after beating godhome radiance 💔

[hearty monolith]

[hollow forge]

[tidal jewel]

The starting room took me 2 hours

[tidal jewel]

Then practice pv till you have him on radiant

[hollow forge]

[crisp willow]

Hi

[wind garnet]

Watch it bud

Only I can call PV a dumbass

[hearty monolith]

[tidal jewel]

Idk does he slap?

Davie504 reference

[wild sierra]

First me to tell me the difference between a lifeseed and lightseed wins

[hearty monolith]

one is life the other is light

[static charm]

lifeseed is lifeblood, lightseed is infection

[wild sierra]

No ;-;

[tidal jewel]

Why did they never add a charm that’s made ur cdash deadly

[wild sierra]

Genius

[hearty monolith]

yes

[manic breach]

Om my way to first try the P3, this game is too easy

[wild sierra]

Bc it’s already deadly

[tidal jewel]

Like make ur cdash have a shorter duration but do some good dmg

[static charm]

sharp shadow stole its spot

[tidal jewel]

Yeah

[wild sierra]

^

[hearty monolith]

we need a charm that makes every dash shade cloak

[wild sierra]

It does twice as much as base nail

[tidal jewel]

Kills everything up to like a vengefly

Hmm

Kills gruzzers

[wild sierra]

The starting blast

Or maybe even impact

[hearty monolith]

wait i thouhght sharp shadow does same dmg as nail

[tidal jewel]

Yeah it’s scaled to nail dmg

[hearty monolith]

same

[finite ember]

HOW THE FUCK DO I GET FULL SOUL IN DIRT MOUTH???

[tidal jewel]

Platforming nightmare tho makes all of pop I consistient

[finite ember]

no one has done this cheese for grimm ever

i swear

[tidal jewel]

Dream nail some bug

[finite ember]

[tidal jewel]

Or dream nail Grimm when he bows

Grimm is an uncheesable type boss

[static charm]

Meowwwww

[wild sierra]

Traitor lord best boss prove me wrong

[tidal jewel]

[tidal jewel]

Do you have 800 escense

[knotty ravine]

[tidal jewel]

Another question does it scale with unbstr

[hearty monolith]

[knotty ravine]

no

[hearty monolith]

i sohuld use it more often then

[tidal jewel]

Aww man

Sansmaster

[hearty monolith]

walkmaster

[proud haven]

People used to call me that

[tidal jewel]

Sprint master is actually kinda good for Grimm ngl
