[fiery trench]

I now see why Grubmother and sonia hate strength
or at least I think I do

[vernal knot]

What do you mean

Duolingo did you turn into a Strength Hater too :c

[fiery trench]

fighting bosses without strength is fun ngl

[fiery trench]

I appriciate strength, but eont always need it

[hidden spire]

Helloo mega

[vernal knot]

Hello

[vernal knot]

It's fun to use though

[vale condor]

Hi

[fiery trench]

hello

[knotty ravine]

yeaa fuck strength

[vernal knot]

Have you even tried?

[vernal knot]

Sonia how far are you into HK

Have you beaten Massive Moss Charger

[knotty ravine]

its the like one charm that genuinely does not have any gameplay and decision making influence

i have 1.1k hours I don’t want to hear it

[vernal knot]

Wow

You could've done like 969 POP's in that time

[fiery trench]

strength is for comfort imo

[analog apex]

i havew 5k hours

[vernal knot]

you must be real good

[wild sierra]

Died to markoth on my first p5 attempt so now ima quit hk 😔

That took forever

[rose ingot]

strength is a crutch
and thats perfectly fine

[wild sierra]

I don’t get how people grind p5 for so long

[rose ingot]

masochism

[wild sierra]

Fair

Markoth sucks

[subtle arch]

I finally beat steel soul 112%

[foggy sable]

markoth will grow on you

in time

[rose ingot]

use grubberfly's elegy

[shrewd nymph]

elegy is just half dmg mop basically

[rose ingot]

it gives you way more range, which is VERY useful in radiant markoth

[shrewd nymph]

nail arts

[rose ingot]

for p5 markoth, as the wise hornet says
GIT GUD!

[rose ingot]

oh yeah sure lemme just pray markoth doesn't decide to randomly switch directions and crash into me

[foggy sable]

nail arts are the best markoth counter

[shrewd nymph]

what

you stay at a range

nail arts have a long hitbox

[zenith flower]

https://medal.tv/games/hollow-knight/clips/lVDDmow2Qpn-J6HrJ?invite=cr-MSx4R0osMzMxNjM1NTM4&v=30 (game audio muted cause cringe song)

[rigid plover]

Are the scary people gone

[zenith flower]

THAT WAS MY BEST ATTEMPT YET AND FUMBLED SO HARD

[rigid plover]

Bruh u were like 1 hit away

[zenith flower]

i know

[rigid plover]

Just DASH bro

😭

[rose ingot]

also using nail arts is a bit harder to do in radiant markoth where the arena is like 3 microscopic platforms

[cold abyss]

dont listen to the music if you embarassed to show it to everyone

[shrewd nymph]

you can start final phase with a shriek btw

[zenith flower]

THEN I MIGHT FDALL AOIGNFHDIULASBGSDJLGS

[rigid plover]

Genuinely ur pogoing so fucking much

[zenith flower]

good to know thanks

[foggy sable]

if you are going to pogo you need to be higher up on the screen

[shrewd nymph]

shriek left platform since she has a 66% chance to start there

[rigid plover]

Ur double jump is literally just impossible to fumble with

[zenith flower]

then i cant see myself

[foggy sable]

you need to be at or above the screen border because the orbs despawn at the top of the screen

[zenith flower]

literally just riptide from vaance joy

[shrewd nymph]

good song

[rigid plover]

Cause it gets refreshed every pogo@zenith flower

[zenith flower]

yeah i was at screen border

[rigid plover]

I legit almost fumbled my radiant run at the same point

[wild sierra]

wait thats smart

:o

[shrewd nymph]

[rigid plover]

Thinking I had no double jump

[zenith flower]

ima keep trying now thanks for the tips

[cold abyss]

could be listening to something worse

[foggy sable]

your character was overlapping with absrad which is too low

[rigid plover]

Till I tried anyway then clutched

[rose ingot]

you're welcome : )

[zenith flower]

[analog apex]

js listen to good music its not hard

[wild sierra]

[wraith prawn]

RUNNN

[rose ingot]

whenever i think about Nosk or Broken Vessel or the Hollow Knight, PIZZA TIME NEVER ENDS plays in my head lol

[cloud widget]

On a serious note I changed my pfp very recently bc i love hk

[copper jay]

Lol

[wraith prawn]

true

fair

[cloud widget]

I finally got into the story and it won me over

[wraith prawn]

Hk became like my favorite game ive ever played

[wraith prawn]

especially after knowing the full lore and then killing the hollow knight

[copper jay]

Bro atp hk and sk isnt hk and sk its rant about other stuff

[wraith prawn]

[wraith prawn]

wish me luck yall

[copper jay]

Same

[wraith prawn]

same

[copper jay]

Im currently tryna beat last boss of act 1

[rose ingot]

anyways in the embrace the void ending, you think Hollow Knight becomes the new ruler of Hallownest

[copper jay]

Why am i thinking of undertale call from the void

[rose ingot]

i mean there's not many other options
Knight is busy tormenting the radiance
Hornet is busy being a lesbian in pharloom
and all of PK's other children are stuck in the abortion pit

[copper jay]

Im pans pans the pans

[zenith flower]

ts would unironically go so hard https://youtube.com/shorts/Z7q_WIJKZRc?si=WtCMkTNxigiIYxH6

[copper jay]

Lol abortion pit good name for it

[rose ingot]

pure vessel wearing a tiny crown
just picture it for a sec
this is why they're the new ruler of hallownest

[vernal knot]

Why would PV take over Hallownest

TK Is far more fit for the Job I'd say

[rose ingot]

they're a little busy tormenting the radiance methinks

[vernal knot]

?

Radiance dead

[red jungle]

I just beat hollow knight

Are you all proud

[rose ingot]

also how would they even find the knight/shade lord

[vernal knot]

Which ending

[vernal knot]

Godseeker

Or The Abyss

Not like the door is closed or sum'

[red jungle]

The one where you kill hollow knight

[rose ingot]

godseeker's freaking dead lol

[vernal knot]

Which of the 2

[vernal knot]

No?

They're alive in Godseeker mode

[red jungle]

The one without radiance

[vernal knot]

Godseeker mode canonically happens after the events of Pantheon 5

[vernal knot]

Which of the 2

[rose ingot]

ugh
godseeker mode, my least favorite lore addition

[vernal knot]

Yeah it's a bit jarring

[red jungle]

Normal one

[rose ingot]

it could've just been a non-canon side mode but noooooooo

[vernal knot]

TK just got a liking for blood and shit

[vernal knot]

Okay

[vernal knot]

I'd not say it's a bad addition.

Personally I like it

gives TK Character

[rose ingot]

although that still means Knight is busy murdering p5 over and over again lol

[red jungle]

Also did it with the best charm in the game

Glowing womb

[vernal knot]

I mean yeahbut it's not like they're forced or anything

they literally just do it for the love of the game

[rose ingot]

idk about you but id be a little hesistant to put the fella who murders god for fun in charge of my kingdom

[vernal knot]

Who would fuck around with the Kingdom then though

Like not anyone can fuck around with "The God of Gods" and not find out

Maybe The Masters

[rose ingot]

the masters are actually just Team Cherry trust

[vernal knot]

Perchance

[carmine lava]

spaghetti masters

[rose ingot]

actually knight/void king can't be the new ruler
they wouldn't fit in the castle
they're too fat

[vernal knot]

Dawg theCastle is fucking gone

[rose ingot]

uh they could build a new one ig

[vernal knot]

Previous king spent a shit ton of money on decorations(aws) and just took it with them

[vernal knot]

Then make it fit for Void Given Focus

I'm sure Godseeker would build that shit up no questions asked

[rose ingot]

the budget probably isn't enough for a void given focus sized castle

[vernal knot]

No breaks nor salary nor food nor asking needed

[rose ingot]

the entire budget of hallownest is currently 12 geo and a button

oh and a shoestring

[vernal knot]

Ask Lemm

[wraith prawn]

bro

being serious

HOW DID ZOTE GET OUT OF THE VOID

i mean

well

it just

[rose ingot]

I asked him and he just keeled over

[wraith prawn]

how did he make it to hallownest?

[vernal knot]

Through the wastelands

Duh

[wraith prawn]

yea

but

if he did

[cloud widget]

Real shit, I love Charizard @vernal knot

[wraith prawn]

hes really weak

[vernal knot]

Real shit, Real shit

[rose ingot]

he also somehow snuck into godhome without godseeker noticing

[vernal knot]

Prob not canon

[wraith prawn]

true

[vernal knot]

but who knows

[wraith prawn]

so

[rose ingot]

so maybe his power is just being really hard to notice

[vernal knot]

It was thanks to TK anyway

[wraith prawn]

yea

no wonder

[vernal knot]

Dawg they felt unn

If they can feel Unn they can feel Zote

[brisk steppe]

pizza tower guy where

[rose ingot]

if they made godseeker mode canon then basically every is on the table lol

[vernal knot]

Not really

Like for example

SoB

SoB's canonicity is weird in my eyes

[rose ingot]

actually wait i thought of something genius

how zote got in to godhome

its bretta

[vernal knot]

Genius

[rose ingot]

she worships him

[vernal knot]

GPZ is there already yeah

[rose ingot]

and by technicality that makes him a god

[vernal knot]

You don't need to be adored to be considered a God

[distant lagoon]

he's brutal on Radiant 😭 😭

[vernal knot]

Godseeker's "God" status is given like candy

Like a Vengefly is on Godhome

[rose ingot]

yeah you just need worship as far as im concerned

[vernal knot]

a regular ass Vengefly statue exists

[vernal knot]

That comes from Godseeker yeah

[rose ingot]

and probably others

[grizzled elm]

Maybe I shouldn't have this

Lol, I haven't even gotten the desolate dive yet.

I just fell into a hole.

And I arrived there.

[vernal knot]

Who the fuck adores a vengefly

[grizzled elm]

I tried to confront the false knight in the dream version, and it was impossible.

[wraith prawn]

WAIT

ngl

[rose ingot]

vengefly king may not seem very impressive but to the other vengeflys im sure they're quite worthy of worship

[wraith prawn]

has anyone realized

[vernal knot]

I didn't say King

did I

I said Vengefly

[wraith prawn]

smth about zote

[vernal knot]

Plain Vengefly

In the backgroound of HoG there's a Vengefly statue

[wraith prawn]

he has 57 precepts...

[vernal knot]

and a Leaping Husk

and a Wandering Husk

[wraith prawn]

and in GH... you have to kill 57 zotes in the eternal ordeal

[grizzled elm]

Guys, which amulets should I use against the Soul Master?

[vernal knot]

Literally everyone is there, but for gameplay reasons only bosses are able to be confronted

[vernal knot]

Take off Dreamshield, period.

[shrewd nymph]

shaman stone, steady body, soul twister/catcher

or smt like that

[vernal knot]

Then spell Twister + Shaman

[rose ingot]

but the worship theory was more fun

[vernal knot]

Valid

[vernal knot]

I care for the facts

[shrewd nymph]

sbody is kinda mid w/o qslash but eh

[grizzled elm]

OK

[rose ingot]

damnit i was really proud of it too

[wraith prawn]

guys

guys

[finite ember]

What what?

[wraith prawn]

has any one realized smth

so in dirtmouth

[rose ingot]

https://tenor.com/view/sad-emoji-man-gif-9804261718830123352

[finite ember]

No I don't think I have

[wraith prawn]

when zote is talking to bretta

[grizzled elm]

Man, I got the dream stinger without having to take the desolate dive.

[vernal knot]

Uh huh

[wraith prawn]

he has 57 precepts

[grizzled elm]

And I tried to fight a boss, but he's too strong.

[vernal knot]

Yes

[cloud widget]

I let Zote die in deepnest

[wraith prawn]

but in godhome

if you go do the eternal ordeal

you need to kill

57 zotes...

[finite ember]

Wait why is this the viable option 🥹

[vernal knot]

You need to kill 57

Yes

[rose ingot]

idk maybe the fightable bosses are the ones godseeker considers "proper" or whatever

[wraith prawn]

57 precepts

[vernal knot]

There's 57 Preceps behind Zote's statue though, yes

[wraith prawn]

57 kills in godhome

so thats all

[vernal knot]

This is revulotionary

[wraith prawn]

i might sound like an idiot

[vernal knot]

You just found out how PK died

[wraith prawn]

(maybe)

[vernal knot]

and how Monarchflies exists

And what the fuck was "The Battle of the blackwyrm"

[wraith prawn]

yk

i dunno

[rose ingot]

godseeker has standards about what counts as a god
they're just very, very, very, very low standards

[vernal knot]

[vernal knot]

I think the standards just don't exist bro

[wraith prawn]

but yea

i beat the eternal ordeal

i am proud of myself

🙂

[rose ingot]

if you're above a literal vengefly good enough welcome to the pantheon

[finite ember]

Honestly I think you could just have a cool mount a badass name and a cool stabby stick and you become a god

[vernal knot]

Zote could never

[vernal knot]

This is just Zote

[finite ember]

Exactly

[vernal knot]

To be honest I'm surprised Quirrel is nowhere to be seen

[finite ember]

He's god

[wraith prawn]

just put zote in the air and just volley ball him

[vernal knot]

He is not a god

[rose ingot]

Zote cheated by having Bretta do all the worshipping for him

[vernal knot]

Nor a proper warrior

[finite ember]

Bretta would disagree

[vernal knot]

not a capable "Knight" (that was likely never named Knight)

[rose ingot]

[cloud widget]

Did anyone actually battle zote

[vernal knot]

Bretta also leaves his ass

[finite ember]

Yeah if you be a meanie

And break them up

[wraith prawn]

[vernal knot]

Zote wasn't even in a relationship

[rose ingot]

bretta deserves better

[vernal knot]

Bretta was just the nearest one to hear him yap

[wraith prawn]

fr

imagine if bretta knew what we were doing and fighting

[finite ember]

Ehhh does Brittany deserve better?

[wraith prawn]

she would make her house the shape of like the knight or sum

[vernal knot]

To be honest I like to headcanon Zote keeps yapping not to himself but to iselda (And doesn't go into the actual shop because he's banned)

[vernal knot]

Not really

[finite ember]

I personally think she was happy in her own little love world

[rose ingot]

she'd probably start dating the vision inside her head lmao

[vernal knot]

she'd be horrified

[wraith prawn]

true

[vernal knot]

Like TK's true nature absolutely terrifies Bretta

[wraith prawn]

i mean

imagine seeing THIS

[finite ember]

Wait wait guys

You're all missing the point

[vernal knot]

It's not that she knows about it, she just guessed it when writting off "The Pale Prince" when the "Grey Prince" arc began

[wraith prawn]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-gif-13956224

[finite ember]

Bretta is meant to be clingy and yandere

[vernal knot]

No?

She's just clingy

where the yandere part came from

I guess obsessive but certainly not yandere

[wraith prawn]

bro lost so much aura after eating all the grubs

[finite ember]

I don't like reading but on the other hand I could hold conversations here better

[vernal knot]

I'd say he gained a shit ton

sacrificing yourself for your kids is something to be proud of

[keen thorn]

Between literature I've found quite different limits
But it's somewhere between 1.5 Sun masses and 8 Sun masses that a star can go supernova

[finite ember]

Didn't he eat his grub children to keep them safe as they begin metamorphosis

[vernal knot]

Specially when your doubling down to be both cocoon and snack after they done evolving

Okay I don't want to watch youtube and get too much spoiled. I want to end Hollow Knight, and I want to achieve the good ending. My friend told me that if I take too much time to fight Hollow Knight then I'll get trapped inside the egg and it's bad ending. He said I have to defeat him faster, but another guy told me to dreamnail him mid fight to fight off the infection and end the game. I have a void heart. Which one should I do? Also will there be a chair if I'm fighting the strongest boss

[vernal knot]

Your friend lied

The other dude lied

[vernal knot]

So first of all it doesn't matter how much time you take

second of all there's no "Good ending", there's just alright endings

Third of all, when Hornet comes inat some point during the fight, you need to Dreamnail THK

[zinc iris]

Dnm is a good ending

[vernal knot]

EtV better

"theres no good endings" thats depressing to hear

@vernal knot what after I dreamnail when Hornet appears? I fight the sun?

[finite ember]

First in your generation to text this

[oak galleon]

will there be one bench?

[finite ember]

Btw

[vernal knot]

You fight The Radiance

[cloud widget]

aw i always jumped when i sabved em too

[vernal knot]

Radiance is not The Sun

[vernal knot]

Lmaono

You need to do both in a row

Don't worry about HP when entering Radiance's fight though, you get healed

[oak galleon]

oh okay. I'll remember this

[vital linden]

What do you mean first in your generation

[wraith prawn]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-grub-gif-18708300

[vernal knot]

I recommend hitting THK like 6 times before going into their dreams

for soul

[finite ember]

What has your dad typed this before?

Yes your generation

As in you

[vernal knot]

bro are you having a stroke

[oak galleon]

really? but only once right? What if I die fighting radiance? Then worse ending again?

[vernal knot]

No you just die

Like, respawn after

You don't get an ending for dying

[finite ember]

?

[copper spruce]

Genio doesnt tell me to explode anymore
This sucks

[vernal knot]

Your barely making sense

[keen thorn]

Explode

[vernal knot]

That was instant holy shit

[finite ember]

How?

[oak galleon]

Thank god! I can try again as much as I want right?

[vernal knot]

Genius why are you lurking

[vernal knot]

Yes

[keen thorn]

I'm randomly turning my phone off and on

[vernal knot]

Engage in the conversation

I miss you

[finite ember]

I mean I think what I said is pretty readable

[keen thorn]

I'm really tired

I just want to get home and eep

[vernal knot]

Can you give me Hk tips then

[finite ember]

Then put the phone down and take time to yourself?

[keen thorn]

What boss?

[vernal knot]

Lore

[oak galleon]

alr last 2 questions. When I retry, I fight the radiance or THK again and dreamnail?
Also what will happen if I deliver Grey Mourner's flower to queen station?

[keen thorn]

I'm not home lol

[keen thorn]

Ew what's that

[smoky matrix]

It's a Genius250.

[vernal knot]

You can't deliver Ze'mer's Flower to Queen Station

[keen thorn]

It's a 🐌

[finite ember]

Okay but you act like you're forced to respond it's okay to not respond immediately to every text

[midnight knot]

hi

[vernal knot]

When you retry, you need to beat THK to get to The Radiance again

[finite ember]

Just relax dude

[zinc iris]

Been doing r5 dashless still

[smoky matrix]

Can you guess what I am gonna do today?

[vernal knot]

Why are you getting triggered over this

[keen thorn]

No I'm not saying that
I just said I'm tired

[oak galleon]

cool!

[vestal cedar]

the runback to radiance is hollow

[finite ember]

Im not?

[vestal cedar]

you have to beat them again if you want to redo radiance

[oak galleon]

because I have void heart?

[keen thorn]

27 hit R5 without spells

[oak galleon]

or because skill issues?

[vernal knot]

No

[vestal cedar]

they aren't really hard and can be defeated in under a minute so

[vernal knot]

there's just nothing to deliver to

[oak galleon]

😃

[keen thorn]

Yeah

Not too much luck

[vernal knot]

You can deliver the flower to Elderbug, Queen's Garden's grave, or Godseeker

[keen thorn]

That almost 1 hit fluke was way too good for me

[vestal cedar]

flower gets destroyed if you use stag or dreamgate

[vernal knot]

there's like secret dialogue for White Lady and Emilitia but who cares

[finite ember]

Yeah sorry I guess? Don't know how i gave off triggered vibes

[smoky matrix]

No, -12 damage nail Wraiths only R5.

[zinc iris]

Happens im struggling on rad abs rad

Prob will take a break

[vernal knot]

Rad absrad is fun

[obtuse brook]

No way I played 400 Hours

[oak galleon]

I know all those rules. But what will happen if I successfully deliver the flower to the one she intends

[keen thorn]

1044729 hit R5

[zinc iris]

Not for me

[keen thorn]

It's ok

[vernal knot]

🦖

[vestal cedar]

she turns into a mask shard when you talk to her. funniest shit i've ever seen

[finite ember]

Thanks for understanding have a blessed day

[midnight knot]

1340 hrs on mario kart 8 deluxe.

[finite ember]

And get home safe

[smoky matrix]

Oh, I achievemed that long ago.

[oak galleon]

why tho? why can't I deliver to the one she asked for?

[vestal cedar]

you can still get delicate flowers from the traitor's child grave and give it to every eligible npc

[vernal knot]

Queen's Garden's Grave is the one she asked for

Not Queen's Station

[vernal knot]

Yeah It's easier that way

[smoky matrix]

Surely 123457890 hits R5 soon, though.

[oak galleon]

oh that's not bad, I'm one mask shard away from 8th life

[vernal knot]

also I forgor to add Oro to the list

[vestal cedar]

oro might be the hardest

[copper spruce]

[obtuse brook]

Yeeeees
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe since 2019!
(Actually 2014)

[vestal cedar]

he's at kingdom's edge

[oak galleon]

oh my bad. So if I go there and deliver and get a mask shard, will there be another ending?

[midnight knot]

nice

[obtuse brook]

[midnight knot]

i lowk died to lost kin 20 times, is that a skill issue

[oak galleon]

definitely not! I took 2hrs to defeat him

peak fight

[cloud widget]

yeah took me a while to beat him

[midnight knot]

people say u need to lowk cheese him to win

[cloud widget]

real shit

[shrewd nymph]

you dont

it just depends at what stage you fight him

lots of people fight him early and as such hes super hard

[obtuse brook]

I died so many times in P5AB that I ended up defeating Markoth 5 times in a row without taking any damage

[midnight knot]

i fight him with channeled nail (i think channeled is around mid game)

[oak galleon]

try using pogo quickly like 6 times then it gets knocked.
to deal with its balloons, do a Descending Dark

then easy fight

[midnight knot]

aight

[shrewd nymph]

if you're finding it abnormally hard then just come back later

its an optional boss fight

[cloud widget]

i didnt even think of using descending dark

[midnight knot]

ye im building a charm build for lost kin

[foggy sable]

or suffer through it now

[midnight knot]

its mostly just desolate dive spam

[foggy sable]

that also works

[shrewd nymph]

Lune, I will do two R5s today.
-12 damage, Wraiths only R5 and 1234567890 hits R5.

[oak galleon]

upgrade it in Crystal peak, then use a shaman stone and and spell twister charm

[midnight knot]

yeeaa i got shaman and im currently on my way to get spell twster

then i'll upgrade desolate dive to descending dark

[zinc iris]

When did u become an R5 runner

[foggy sable]

shade soul is the best spell for lost kin

[oak galleon]

cool

[shrewd nymph]

what actually is the max hits in r5

[midnight knot]

yeh

[shrewd nymph]

is it 72

[oak galleon]

it works too ig

[smoky matrix]

Since I started spreading misinfo.

[sleek bear]

gotta love getting clapped back and fourth by absolute radiance

[midnight knot]

i tried spamming it and then i died because i cant keep my range good (he keeps spamming jump and i cant get my range far away from it)

[smoky matrix]

I mean, there's theoretically no limit.

[shrewd nymph]

what? how

[oak galleon]

but nothing beats Descending Dark because it gives i-frame

[copper spruce]

-0 hits

[smoky matrix]

Just keep getting hit to FK, keep Dream Nailing and healing.

[midnight knot]

how much staggers does lost kin have?

[shrewd nymph]

thats not r5 then huh

[wraith prawn]

https://tenor.com/view/mewing-bird-gif-16835999897918525830

[oak galleon]

6-7 iirc

[midnight knot]

damn cuz i got to the 5th one

and died

[smoky matrix]

What else did you think I meant by 1234567890 hit R5?

[midnight knot]

cuz i got no chances to heal

[shrewd nymph]

ik that max hits per segment is 9, but i cant remember if there are 8 segments or not

[foggy sable]

...it depends what you define as a hit

[shrewd nymph]

baldur cfm

[oak galleon]

you can also use spore shroom with a defender's crest combo and heal when it gets knocked

[smoky matrix]

Ohhhh.

[shrewd nymph]

wait no its 65 hits max i think

[oak galleon]

it will kill those balloons also

[smoky matrix]

Hmm.

[carmine lava]

this is the problem with people saying like 3 hit r5

[midnight knot]

aight

[smoky matrix]

[wooden egret]

WHEEERRRRR

[copper spruce]

What if I use baldurs shell in r5

[shrewd nymph]

9 hits is max you can do in first segment, but i dont know if its 9 or 8 for following segments

[wooden egret]

WHERRRR IS MY INFECTION POWDER I NEED TO FIGHT MY MANTIS SISTERS

[midnight knot]

some people said if u want u can use fragile strength but its risky

[smoky matrix]

Doesn't Baldur Shell break after like, 4 hits though?

[shrewd nymph]

yes

[smoky matrix]

So add one with CFM and that's 5.

[sleek bear]

https://tenor.com/view/bro-shut-up-a-dog-has-more-drip-than-you-shut-up-dog-more-drip-dog-drip-gif-8431179953153423238

[shrewd nymph]

baldur increases cfm rate

[copper spruce]

4 hit r5

[shrewd nymph]

cfm > baldur > cfm > baldur > cfm > baldur > cfm > baldur > cfm

[smoky matrix]

Ohhhh.

[oak galleon]

remember fragile strength is op if you don't die

[shrewd nymph]

but i dont know if initial cfm is possible on segment 2+

so it might go to 8 max

[midnight knot]

btw

[shrewd nymph]

which would be 65

[midnight knot]

how do people get 15 masks bro

[foggy sable]

you used cfm as the last hit

[midnight knot]

im on my 7th

😭

[foggy sable]

therefore would not be charged

[cloud widget]

probably mods

[smoky matrix]

Well, let's just check.

!wiki Carefree Melody

[violet flicker]

https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Carefree_Melody

[shrewd nymph]

yeah so 8 hits for 7 segments, 9 for first?

[midnight knot]

what's the max amount of masks?

[foggy sable]

I think so

[shrewd nymph]

cfm is 10n/99 * 100 chance

it does reset on baldur for sure

[oak galleon]

even I don't know that because I'm one shard away from 8. But there's a charm which makes all your hearts blue.

[wooden egret]

So I put Gucci on the fur
Then I put my wrist on iceberg

[cloud widget]

should be 10

[shrewd nymph]

you see it in radanyrad or similar

[oak galleon]

I think that is how they do it

[smoky matrix]

9, 11 with Fragile Heart.

[midnight knot]

o

[oak galleon]

or maybe I need to explore more

[midnight knot]

with charms im pretty sure its like 13

[smoky matrix]

It's 9.

[sleek bear]

yup

[foggy sable]

also people talking in hk discussion with blatantly silksong spoiler names gets on my nerves

[midnight knot]

so 15 masks is basically impossible unless there's other charms for it

[smoky matrix]

Yes.

[cloud widget]

ah i forgot abt charms

[shrewd nymph]

only with lifeblood (temporary masks)

[cloud widget]

i thought you meant like without charms

[oak galleon]

I would say git gud and don't care about many hearts

[sleek bear]

who cares about spoilers genuinely, it's not like the games a show

[midnight knot]

o

[wooden egret]

WHERR IS MY INFECTION POWDER FOR MY WORKOUT?

[smoky matrix]

What?

[languid gale]

the game has lore and a story

[shrewd nymph]

what is the max lifeblood again time to do the math

[midnight knot]

like lowk i saw a reddit about getting 15 masks and is it possible

[foggy sable]

well the entire point of having split channels

[sleek bear]

and? It's still a game not a show with multiple seasons

[rose ingot]

some people like being surprised

[smoky matrix]

Counting or not counting P5?

[languid gale]

not gonna argue with your but movies and tv series arent the only things that can have lore/story

[rose ingot]

i know most of us are probably autistic so its probably hard to imagine enjoying being surprised lol

[languid gale]

• theres also content in game that not everyone wants to know about

[shrewd nymph]

max with p5 is 57 iirc, but with nailsmith you can get higher
are overworld lifeblood cocoons randomly 2-5 lifeblood?

[sleek bear]

ik but most people act like a couple spoilers for silksong are genuinely gonna ruin the experience

[midnight knot]

100% 😔

[smoky matrix]

No, they contain a fixed amount.

[foggy sable]

they are set with some being 2 and some being 3

[languid gale]

its better that you keep silksong out of here anyway

since sk spoilers are unnecessary

[smoky matrix]

Most are two. The one above Galien and the one in KE contain 3.

[sleek bear]

hm fair

[shrewd nymph]

maybe the 4/5 are from including godhome

[smoky matrix]

!wiki lifeblood cocoon

[violet flicker]

https://hollowknight.wiki/w/Lifeblood_Cocoon

[foggy sable]

only godhome gets more than 3

[shrewd nymph]

yh ur right

so max in one go is 18

[languid gale]

i wish there were more lifeblood cocoons

imo the use of them are really limited cuz of how few there are

[shrewd nymph]

so max charmless is 90 lifeblood

[shrewd nymph]

2(6) + 3(2) no?

[smoky matrix]

There are three 3s.

[foggy sable]

3 3 lifeblood things

[sleek bear]

gonna be real I've only came across TWO of the lifeblood cocoons listed

[shrewd nymph]

oh

why on earth is that halfway up there

so charmless max is 95

[foggy sable]

so max 117?

[smoky matrix]

How did adding one lifeblood mask increase 5??

[shrewd nymph]

upgrading nail resets cocoons

[smoky matrix]

Ohhhhh.

[sleek bear]

and with charms around 120?

[shrewd nymph]

or so ive heard

[languid gale]

other than kings pass theyre fairly hidden

[rose ingot]

love how white defender is technically the strongest thing in hollow knight

[languid gale]

masks including lifeblood?

[rose ingot]

in his fifth fight, he deals FIVE masks of damage PER HIT

[midnight knot]

primal aspid joke insert

[shrewd nymph]

is charm lifeblood max 22?

[foggy sable]

max from charms is 22 so 117

[shrewd nymph]

that would make it 117 yeah

[sleek bear]

devs should've at least given an hint instead of " break this random wall for more hp" 😔

[smoky matrix]

I can't find anything like that on the wiki.

[shrewd nymph]

ive heard it from a few people

maybe i should go test it

[foggy sable]

fog canyon is easy to find

[midnight knot]

"pls break wall for hp"

[smoky matrix]

I see.

[rose ingot]

primal aspid has nightmares of white defenders lol

[languid gale]

break wall for 2 temporary masks

[midnight knot]

priemol aspied
