spam vs

[dreamy sand]

Can't tell

[heavy ether]

Which country

Just tell currency

[agile zephyr]

Fake-dies twice.

[foggy sable]

did you upgrade your damage?

[empty lynx]

wait what are y'all even talking about

[agile zephyr]

Yes.

I have the third Nail.

[heavy ether]

Rupeese?

[dreamy sand]

BTD

Oh wait I'm a dumbass

[agile zephyr]

Nosk or Broken Vessel?

[glass finch]

are you talking about soul MASTER or soul TYRANT

[dreamy sand]

That still gives away my location

[agile zephyr]

Soul Master.

[glass finch]

cause those are different

[visual verge]

Axaxaxaxaxaxxaxa

Bro

[agile zephyr]

I haven't fought Soul Tyrant yet.

[empty lynx]

Narrowed you down to a few million peoples location
I will find you

[glass finch]

if you have nail 3 he would be getting evaporated in like 5 seconds

[dreamy sand]

Also don't give me the
"Get better hardware" shit
If I could, I would
I'm a 14 year old kid all I get is what my parent's give me

[agile zephyr]

"I finally dids it," I said, unawares he would jumps me again.

[visual verge]

Do you have 1 arm?

[lucid plover]

We need a silk song sequel

[glass finch]

wait 14 years

[empty lynx]

WHO would have nail 3 by the time they reach soul master cro

Unless you are intentionally avoiding him

[agile zephyr]

He has over 200 HP in Phase 1.

[glass finch]

idk that's what he's saying cuh

[visual verge]

Stop complaining about how hard they are and play

[agile zephyr]

And I didn't feel like dying.

[sick heath]

https://tenor.com/view/fresh-prince-we-will-smith-theres-no-we-shocked-gif-17214689

[glass finch]

yeah and nail 3 does 17 damage

[agile zephyr]

Folk. 😭

[agile zephyr]

13.*

Nail 4 does 17.

Nail 5 does 21.

[glass finch]

even then

that's like 15 hits

[foggy sable]

conventionally nail levels are measured from 0-4

[agile zephyr]

How much does it cost to get Unbreakable Strength?

[stark marlin]

I was told that howling cliffs have a lot of content
But I've only found an essence tree, warrior dream and a charm

[visual verge]

15000

Geo

[empty lynx]

You have vspirit. And iirc he staggers every like 9 hits

[agile zephyr]

Dang.

[empty lynx]

200 hp might sound like alot but it really isn't when you use your one spell more

[glass finch]

there's a hidden thing that activates grimm troupe dlc

[visual verge]

From the ass of Divine in grimm troupe

[agile zephyr]

So just grind for hours to be stronger or beat bosses for enough money.

[foggy sable]

with nail 2 vs isn't worth using much

[visual verge]

Stop complaining and...

[empty lynx]

Or use fragile strength in dream worlds

[stark marlin]

Oh imma look for it then

[steady lake]

j

[empty lynx]

it doesn't break except against the true final boss or the dream world of the true ending

[agile zephyr]

But I wanna just get Unbreakable Strength as soon as I buy Fragile Strength.

[glass finch]

do not

[empty lynx]

Too bad too expensive

[glass finch]

run a spell build for early game

much cheaper

[visual verge]

You can get unbreakable strength from the ass of Divine in grimm troupe

For 15000

But

[agile zephyr]

So either grind or use Fragile Strength for Dream Bosses.

[visual verge]

Soul master is soo ezz

Why

[agile zephyr]

Or just keep fighting bosses.

[glass finch]

or you could try shaman soul catcher spell twister

[empty lynx]

You got this

[glass finch]

shaman stone i should clarify i guess

[agile zephyr]

Nosk or Broken Vessel?

Broken Vessel does have less HP.

[fresh surge]

brokie vessel

[agile zephyr]

And would get me Monarch Wings.

[glass finch]

nosk isn't required for progression

[agile zephyr]

But Pale Ore.

[glass finch]

i mean neither is broken vessel really

but

[agile zephyr]

112%.

[fresh surge]

normally people need monarch wings to get to lurien

just that people do skips all the time

[glass finch]

you can pogo the background object tho

[empty lynx]

Broken vessel
Much easier, and gives double jump which is needed for one other pale ore

[agile zephyr]

Speedrunners.*

[agile zephyr]

Sweet.

[fresh surge]

*normally

by that i mean intended route

[agile zephyr]

So beat them, get some Pale Ore and Nosk.

[empty lynx]

There is also a pale ore in ancient basin if you haven't gotten that

[agile zephyr]

To get some more.

[agile zephyr]

I forgot how to get there.

[fresh surge]

just beat vroken bessel first

[foggy sable]

okay but, and hear me out, difficulty is relative

[stark marlin]

Is it up there where I can't reach?

[agile zephyr]

And where's that first Nailmaster?

[glass finch]

no

[fresh surge]

you can beat him easily enough with 1 nail upgrade

[empty lynx]

You can enter ancient basin using the tram from deepnest or entering from eastern city of tears

[glass finch]

it's behind a breakable wall behind a breakable wall

[visual verge]

What

Do you mean

[empty lynx]

Mato (cyclone) is in howling cliffs

[glass finch]

different people experience different difficulty

[foggy sable]

you say it is easy which is both irrelavent and pointless because difficulty is relative to the person attempting the thing

[agile zephyr]

But where there?

Where does he exist?

[foggy sable]

for example for someone good at the game most things in it are trivial

[empty lynx]

Like some small tunnel to the bottom right corner of gorb

[visual verge]

It's better for me to shut up for a moment

[foggy sable]

it isn't you specifically it is a trend around here

[shrewd nymph]

Keyword, most

[grizzled elm]

I've been playing non-stop on Pico de Cristal for about two hours.

Bruh

I hate this game

I hate

[glass finch]

i feel like instead of saying a boss is "easy" the community should give tips for said "easy" boss

[grizzled elm]

I hate

I hate

[foggy sable]

I put the keyword there for a reason

[grizzled elm]

I hate

[shrewd nymph]

Everyone has that one random boss they cant do well

Ish

[foggy sable]

...

pure vessel

[fresh surge]

markoth!!

[stark marlin]

I've found a big red torch and managed to light it

[glass finch]

[agile pewter]

: |

[empty lynx]

That guy too

[foggy sable]

true actually I'll change my answer

[pure flare]

Guys how do i use the nail art you get from the white area?

[grizzled elm]

I hate this place, man.

[grizzled elm]

Sincerely

[pure flare]

I forgot

[grizzled elm]

I'm tired of playing.

[empty lynx]

Let go of attack right after dash

[pure flare]

The name

[glass finch]

what is the "white area"

[agile zephyr]

Why?

[empty lynx]

Typical

[pure flare]

Uhh

[fresh surge]

hold x, dash, let go right after

[pure flare]

Where u fight second hornet

[glass finch]

do you mean kingdom's edge

[grizzled elm]

This level is awful, I still haven't killed the boss, I've been playing for TWO HOURS NON-STOP.

[glass finch]

yeah

[pure flare]

Second phase

[glass finch]

hold nail dash release

[agile zephyr]

Dang.

[fresh surge]

in the white area

[grizzled elm]

I haven't taken my eyes off my phone since then.

[empty lynx]

No need to fight the boss
He's optional

Do you have dive by the way?

[grizzled elm]

But if I don't fight, and if I die doing parkour, I'll come back from nothing.

[pure flare]

Ohh i thought it was hold x only

[glass finch]

that's for great slash

[grizzled elm]

No, I entered through the lantern.

[grizzled elm]

An alternative path, so to speak.

[empty lynx]

Why does bro have dreamshield but not dive

Anyway

Can i see your inventory and charms?

[grizzled elm]

I went to visit those caves, and I fell into a hole, man.

I stopped in the land of rest.

👎

[pure flare]

How do i get more charm notches quickslash takes every notch up

[glass finch]

i feel like you would hate it less if you weren't using dreamshield

cause it's ass

[fresh surge]

find them or buy them from salubra

[pure flare]

O

[grizzled elm]

@empty lynx I almost fell right here.

I'm going to take a break from the game, I'm very angry.

[grizzled elm]

I don't play that well.

[empty lynx]

Atleast you got dreamnail
Anyhoo can you show your inventory and charms?

[grizzled elm]

I'll kill the boss and then try.

[grizzled elm]

Yes of course

[grizzled elm]

I think this is it.

I'm using other amulets.

[pure flare]

Im so bad at exploring i get stuck in every area for example i couldnt even find salubura while i was stuck at kings station trying to get upgrades for my abilities and dying to second phase hornet 50 times after that i gave up and quit

[stark marlin]

Does this do anything?

[grizzled elm]

Yes, I have.

[fresh surge]

go to dirtmouth

[empty lynx]

Grimm troupe second ritual.
fungal wastes big shrooms arena
4 from salubra (25 charms needed)
Fog canyon
Kingdom's edge colo of fools

[glass finch]

the grimm troupe is in dirtmouth now

[pure flare]

Fog canyon?

[stark marlin]

thanks!

[grizzled elm]

I don't have a picture of my inventory, but I have level 2 blades, 200 dream points, and the vengeful spirit.

Etc

[empty lynx]

I'd recommend you replace dreamshield and baldur's with shamman stone and spell twister/longnail.
You can't consistently heal against crystal guardian anyway so shield is basically useless

[fresh surge]

do you have a map? exploration shouldnt be a problem then

[pure flare]

Uhm

[grizzled elm]

Sting level two

[pure flare]

idk how the map works it just shows areas

It dosent show where i am

[glass finch]

do you have compass

[pure flare]

No

[glass finch]

buy it

[honest plinth]

Yo guys

[glass finch]

from iselda

[fresh surge]

get to dirtmouth and buy it from hot lady

[pure flare]

Wheres that

[pure flare]

Hot lady?

[glass finch]

in dirtmouth

[grizzled elm]

I'll keep your recommendations in mind, but I'm not going to play now, I'm exhausted.

[honest plinth]

Should i play hk silksong mode/overcharmed

[grizzled elm]

I made almost no progress during that time.

[fresh surge]

iselda, shes in one of the buildings in dirtmouth

[honest plinth]

With carefree melody?

[grizzled elm]

This game punished me in many ways.

[glass finch]

overcharmed no carefree melody

[pure flare]

Ohh thats why u call her hot

[fresh surge]

[honest plinth]

I want magnetite dice

[pure flare]

I mean

[pure flare]

[glass finch]

hey guys sexualising hk characters is a punishable offense let's keep that in minf

mind*

[fresh surge]

😭

[pure flare]

yeah i totally agree

[fresh surge]

[pure flare]

[empty lynx]

It's chill 👍
The idea is that you use fireballs for alot more damage to kill him before he kills you

[foggy sable]

you can just jump then dash above the horizontal beam it is easier than doing the pogo

[empty lynx]

That too
Iam just used to double jumping gng (iam actually trash at cg without dive 💔)

[glass finch]

honestly just spam nail dive when he attacks

very cheesable boss

[fresh surge]

jus equip strength qs sbody and kill him in 8 seconds

[pure flare]

Hiw do u do this on mobile

[empty lynx]

Unofficial port by the same team modding mobile silksong

[hidden spire]

c

[fresh surge]

c

[hidden spire]

steady body hell yeah

[glass finch]

d😈

[foggy sable]

steady body is in fact a pretty good charm

[hidden spire]

Ture

[foggy sable]

however needs qs which is not exactly an early game charm

[hidden spire]

mhmm

it's like 2 side of a coin

[glass finch]

it can be decent withouth qs

[foggy sable]

I would not run steady body without quickslash pretty much ever

[empty lynx]

Decent without qs unreal with

[foggy sable]

and qs is not great without sbody

[wind garnet]

[foggy sable]

it can be usable but is nowhere near as good

[pure flare]

Guys am i still early game having all abilities and stuck on kings station?

[hidden spire]

Moments that changed my life

Unequipping sharp shadow
Finally equipping steady body
Unequipping sharp shadow

[foggy sable]

it just needs qs so much

I'd actually consider it actively bad without qs

[hidden spire]

It just doesn't really have that much of a use without qs

[foggy sable]

qs is so good though that it makes sbody into a top charm

the real problem is that outside of godhome nail is just not strong

and in endgame is just too strong that qs+strength+sbody is the only real option

[fresh surge]

honestly, agreed...

these 2 charms are married or smth

[rigid token]

Zote is impossible

[glass finch]

Shouldn't MoP be included

[foggy sable]

when they are together the combinations is so good

[foggy sable]

eh it depends

shaman is normally run as the third alternative

[glass finch]

I mean I've always ran mop with a nail build

[foggy sable]

MoP is more optional although I have it as 6th best charm

[shrewd nymph]

Overshadowed by shaman

[glass finch]

Shaman only good for rad bosses if you're over charming

[shrewd nymph]

Unique take

[glass finch]

Or running spell builds

[shrewd nymph]

Why do nail and spells builds have to be mutually exclusive

[foggy sable]

shaman should also be removed

alongside strength and qs should be nerfed

but anyway

shaman good

you can make an argument for running MoP instead of it

which I do when I do normal p5 runs occasionally

[foggy sable]

wizard build

[shrewd nymph]

I mean true

[foggy sable]

(the build sucks but we don't talk about that)

[empty lynx]

I hate practicing markoth for r5

[shrewd nymph]

But a surprising amount of people think you have to run a nail build or a spell build

as if shaman is bad without building around it for ex

[empty lynx]

He has more hp on radiant and i don't start off with max soul so i can't really replicate much

[shrewd nymph]

Are you pc

Ah unlucky

[empty lynx]

i was thinking maybe replacing one of the charms with like soul eater but then iam not replicating an actual scenario in a run

[foggy sable]

it plays mostly the same

phase 2 is a bit longer but you should consider learning the phase 2 anyway in case you mess up in a run

[empty lynx]

True Although messing phase 2 up would be difficult with Max soul

[foggy sable]

I see someone doing r5 and want to talk too much

[opal hearth]

eat
sleep
worship zote
repeat

[foggy sable]

it is surprisingly easy to miss shots

late in a run

[empty lynx]

good point. It's only like 8 shade soul hits but it is possible

[rigid token]

sounds like Heaven tbh

[foggy sable]

you could always count phase 2 shade soul hits and once you hear 8 call it a win anyway

[empty lynx]

mhm

Iam lowk really confident about the p4 split all around

Now it's just absrad and just about everything else

[subtle phoenix]

holy shit absrad is so annoying

[foggy sable]

learn absrad well is my recommendation

[empty lynx]

Climb

[foggy sable]

yep

you know the strat for the top of climb?

[agile pewter]

Die

Thats how i usually do anyrad

: |

[foggy sable]

anybad is different

[empty lynx]

Yea
In general it's not really that bad after i discovered V-sync is fucking goated

No seriously why am i dodging better with Vsync on its supposed to make things faster

[foggy sable]

unless you never practice climb and only practice the rest of the fight plats is normally the biggest issue

[subtle phoenix]

im practicing the entire fight i guess

platforms suck

[foggy sable]

are you after absrad advice?

[subtle phoenix]

yes

[foggy sable]

(Please)

okay perfect

so platform phase is the one that has you stuck?

[subtle phoenix]

kinda

the first 3 phases are kinda meh but the rest just suck

[foggy sable]

I would recommend for plats to stick to one of the middle platforms and only move from there to a spawn in the middle six spawn positions

[graceful storm]

Where the hell is King's Pass?

[foggy sable]

if she is far away focus only on avoiding incoming attacks and not losing health, when she spawns a beam wall go through it before it moves halfway across the screen to avoid overlapping attacks

When she teleports close by move to her using a descending dark to avoid any potential face attacks when you move then get nail hits until she is about to do her next attack or move again

For final phase exit climb on the left side and do an abyss shriek as she spawns, then go up and pogo her for the phase. Stay above the border of the screen because the orbs despawn there

[sleek bear]

We deadass?

[empty lynx]

The first area you spawn in

[foggy sable]

for climb jump as the laser spawns then you have time to decide to move is you want as you get higher move out to bait the laser then dash through it to climb more safely

[subtle phoenix]

thanks for the advice

[foggy sable]

this can be greatly elaborated on

but that is not needed for something outside of p5ab

[subtle phoenix]

nah im only doing p5

i am not good enough for p5ab

[foggy sable]

oh also remember you can destroy the floor spikes with DDark in the second phase

[vocal crypt]

what purpose did lurien serve except being a dreamer really?

[foggy sable]

(I have 7 pages on absrad)

[empty lynx]

Watching

[cedar creek]

Guys

[foggy sable]

I feel like you are leading into something

[cedar creek]

Can you play Silksong multiplayer?

[foggy sable]

#sk-discussion

[cedar creek]

[foggy sable]

[formal spear]

||||

[sleek bear]

With mods yes

[spiral jungle]

where do i fight the radiance in hall of gods

[formal spear]

||I just radiented massive moss charger, false knight, and hornet protector||

[formal spear]

You have to do absolute radience, regular radience doesn't exist there

[sleek bear]

u did radiant on all 3 of the easiest bosses congratulations

[spiral jungle]

aw hell nah

[formal spear]

Hey, It's something

[foggy sable]

kinda rude there

[sleek bear]

not really

[sleek bear]

Not wrong about that

[foggy sable]

yes

being dismissive in response to someone being proud of something is indeed rude

[sleek bear]

I wasn't dismissive tho? I said congratulations did I not?

[spiral jungle]

FINALLLYYY I DID NIGHTMARE KING ON RADIANT

[sleek bear]

or did my message come out as sarcastic

[formal spear]

Good job

[spiral jungle]

ty

[storm bolt]

nice

[formal spear]

A bit. But its good now

[spiral jungle]

ty

[foggy sable]

it did very strongly

[storm bolt]

[empty lynx]

Free btw

[spiral jungle]

[shrewd nymph]

[storm bolt]

[shrewd nymph]

hkmain

[formal spear]

Nah, have grimmchild

[foggy sable]

[subtle phoenix]

YESSSS

[foggy sable]

gg

[formal spear]

Nice job!

[empty lynx]

Now get her in the pantheon

[storm bolt]

gg

[subtle phoenix]

i gotta practice it way more

still

before p5

[empty lynx]

It's okay

[foggy sable]

I know it was coincidental probably but it was totally the advice

[empty lynx]

It will take a while but you will get her eventually

[formal spear]

I haven't even beat pantheon 3 yet.

Oh well

[foggy sable]

in time you'll do it

[formal spear]

[formal spear]

Where elderbug is

[rigid comet]

Ha?

[formal spear]

Elder bug is all the context needed

Any tips for radient gorb?

[copper spruce]

Die horribly

[formal spear]

I'm not sure what chamrs to use other than grubberfly and unbreakable strength

[shrewd nymph]

Use shade souls whenever you have the soul (also makes soul eater overcharm great)

• shaman ofc

[formal spear]

I will use heavy blow

[storm bolt]

scream at his ass until he dies

[formal spear]

GORB

[storm bolt]

yes

[crimson quiver]

ASCEND!

[storm bolt]

oh hey sibling

[empty lynx]

We are SAVING runs with ts

[formal spear]

Goated

[storm bolt]

playing on mobile must be hellish

[crimson quiver]

Steel soul P5 is risky xd

[empty lynx]

Well you can't die but it would be

[storm bolt]

why are you overcharmed anyway?

[polar niche]

e

[crimson quiver]

Since if you die to absrad i think it’s over

[storm bolt]

no

[empty lynx]

I. Love sbody

[empty lynx]

You don't lose your steel soul run in dreams

[formal spear]

Yes

Same in silksong

[crimson quiver]

We talk about absolute radiance

[storm bolt]

steady body is peak but overcharming is risky

[granite hazel]

https://tenor.com/view/the-big-leagues-the-big-leagues-are-calling-gif-15928249687245233098

[empty lynx]

I should def do overcharmed steel soul at some point

[crimson quiver]

And for example, you die to base radiance, run over

[storm bolt]

not abs rad

[crimson quiver]

Doesn’t make sense

[mellow charm]

GUYS I FINALY KILLED HORNET SENTIAL AFTER 5 DAYD

[storm bolt]

well if you die in dreams you just....wake up

[formal spear]

Nice

[shrewd nymph]

Gg

[empty lynx]

It makes sense for base radiance since it's the final boss

[storm bolt]

noice

[granite hazel]

Dups

[mellow charm]

Do I go to the abys now?

[empty lynx]

what's actually weird is losing your steel soul run in white palace

[storm bolt]

yep

[mellow charm]

And get shade cloak

K

[formal spear]

Yes.

[mellow charm]

Where do I get howling wariths

[formal spear]

Get abyss shriek aswell

[crimson quiver]

But absolute radiance is radiance… so it doesn’t make sense

[mellow charm]

I don't have frm

[granite hazel]

I js helped my friend beating p5 too :D

[formal spear]

In fog canyon somewhere

I forget wher

[formal spear]

Nice

[storm bolt]

overgrown mound in fog canyon at the far left side

[mellow charm]

I thought it was in the traitor lord area thing

[mellow charm]

K

[formal spear]

No, fog canyon I'm pretty sure

[formal spear]

Yeah

[storm bolt]

its near queen's garden so its understandable

[formal spear]

Oh yeah

[wary hound]

Heyo

[mellow charm]

Bro primal aspids still bully me

[formal spear]

Gorb is hard on radient

[mellow charm]

😭

[wary hound]

Ehh kinda in the middle

[storm bolt]

uhh no he's never hard?

[wary hound]

Gorb the ascended

[formal spear]

One abyss shreik and they vaporize, once you get that,

[empty lynx]

Gorb is hard on radiant when you are playing too aggressively

[wary hound]

Gorb the ascended on ascended

[shrewd nymph]

Difficulty is subjective yk

[storm bolt]

one shade soul is enough

[wary hound]

Depends

[formal spear]

Oh its good now

[shrewd nymph]

Not crazy to say

[empty lynx]

For me radiance is lowk easier than freaking broken vessel

[gritty plover]

More rhythm

[empty lynx]

she's just too slow

[wary hound]

lol

[wary hound]

Yeh still depends they are quite close

But I see that

[wary hound]

There’s like 1236

true completion sucks

and is sometimes bugged

[empty lynx]

Tough fight

[foggy sable]

but for 99% you should be fine

[wary hound]

Yeh there’s this one dream tree it says I’m missing that just isn’t there

[wary hound]

Uk war I’m skipping

[shrewd nymph]

So abt 100

[hidden spire]

c

[wary hound]

That’s for 90 percent

[shrewd nymph]

You could def get high 99

[shrewd nymph]

Thats for 99

[hidden spire]

Oops

[foggy sable]

I have a bugged egg that won't pick up

[wary hound]

There’s about 100 wat again sorry

[foggy sable]

I might manually edit the save tbh

[shrewd nymph]

Wait

No im silly

[wary hound]

I’m so confused

[empty lynx]

So when do you use abyss shriek for sly phase 2

[wary hound]

U abysss shriek that

[gritty plover]

Do I unlock abs rad in godhome if I meet him in p5

[formal spear]

Should I try Gorb, mantis lords, traitor lord, or crystal guardian on radient?

[shrewd nymph]

As it starts

[wary hound]

👍

[shrewd nymph]

the first spin

[wary hound]

Really

[empty lynx]

Traitor

[shrewd nymph]

Im being silly, you can miss a bit over 10 yh

[formal spear]

K

[shrewd nymph]

Yeah, there are lineups for it

[wary hound]

Yeh def missing the radiant pantheons for now

[graceful storm]

Is Grubberfly's Elegy good?

[shrewd nymph]

p3-p5ab, r3-5 is 6 thats most reasonable to miss

[shrewd nymph]

No

[gritty plover]

Only in radiant

[storm bolt]

nope

[shrewd nymph]

Only for pop / white palace

[formal spear]

Only really in radient

[gritty plover]

Really good Im radiant

[wary hound]

Oh yeh I was about to say y then remembered

[gritty plover]

Shit everywhere else

[storm bolt]

even in radiant i only see people use it on markoth

[shrewd nymph]

i dont think its good in radiant

[foggy sable]

agreed

[graceful storm]

Why

[gritty plover]

I like using it

[foggy sable]

it perhaps has use in something like r5 nail only

or other nail only radiant fights

[formal spear]

I used grubberflies in all 3 radients I have done so far

[wary hound]

Which are

[shrewd nymph]

It makes grubsong soul go from 10 -> 25 iirc. That + deepfocus is infinite healing and quicker than hiveblood

[wary hound]

While max hp

[formal spear]

False knight, hornet protecter and massive moss charger

[shrewd nymph]

I mean mop though

[graceful storm]

Ty for this tip

[storm bolt]

....arent you fighting radiant bosses?

[shrewd nymph]

I think it always applies that buff

[wary hound]

lol nice

[graceful storm]

massive MO-

[wary hound]

REALLY

I doubt it

To op

[foggy sable]

I'd rather MoP but it is viable

[shrewd nymph]

I mean its 3 notches for a buffed grubsong

[wary hound]

True

[formal spear]

Yeah, I am, these are just th eones I ahve done

[shrewd nymph]

Different standards of viable probably, that or im too meta blinded

[graceful storm]

Should I do Grimm, Markoth, Hive, or Colosseum Of Fools now?

[formal spear]

Hive I think

[foggy sable]

with no spells and no shaman the slots are open

the opportunity cost is pretty low

[shrewd nymph]

CoF last, thats for sure.
Grimm gives a notch, hive gives a mask shard so one of those two

[storm bolt]

i recommend quick slash, strength,shaman, dream weilder/nailmaster's glory and soul eater

[shrewd nymph]

Strength qslash mop sbody nmg?

[graceful storm]

Maybe Hive first...

[foggy sable]

yeah so it comes down to nmg or elegy

and you can sort of make an argument for elegy

[shrewd nymph]

oh you're saying overcharm?

[foggy sable]

not that I'd run it because the sound annoys me

for r5 nail only

[shrewd nymph]

What is the standard build used for that?

[foggy sable]

and/or other nail only radiant stuff

no idea

[shrewd nymph]

Idk how they count cfm but it could def be that > nmg

[foggy sable]

I'd probably run str, qs, sbody, ln, MoP, nmg

but I've seen elegy used in it

[shrewd nymph]

Its just the 0.5x dmg overlapping with mops border ykwim

i dont know how large that overlap is

[fresh isle]

ye theres no other real build
u can swap out longnail for baldur shell for absrad if u want its quite nice

[shrewd nymph]

Baldurs hm

[foggy sable]

true baldur is a good shout for platform

[shrewd nymph]

If baldurs hits are fine surely cfm is

[fresh isle]

the game counts it has hitless still i think yea

cfm is dumb though

[shrewd nymph]

So depends on the list or personal standards ig

Yeah cfm is not hitless imo

[fresh isle]

yeahh

mhm

like u can also just not have gpz

[shrewd nymph]

To me its just intentional (baldurs for the most part) vs unintentional (cfm)

But i hate how thats leaning towards fury being hitless 😭

[foggy sable]

intentional fury setup

[shrewd nymph]

Lmao spot on

[foggy sable]

all hitless definitions either lead to fury allowed or nothing that results in i frames from either enemy attacks or obstacles

[fresh isle]

i mostly like the exception for it just because i think giving healing a purpose in hitless is cool

[shrewd nymph]

Smh 65 hit r5 though

[shrewd nymph]

How do you use baldurs effectively for r5?

[foggy sable]

nail only for absrad plats I presume

[fresh isle]

ye

[shrewd nymph]

Oh wait

You cant use ddark thats right 😭

[foggy sable]

anyway I do find it funny to see people define hitless

since I've seen the arguments within TH about hk hitless definitions

[shrewd nymph]

I think baldur is the controversial one

[fresh isle]

team hitless is silly

[shrewd nymph]

Cfm just makes little sense and fury is even worse

[foggy sable]

why so?

[fresh isle]

idk i think like any manually maintainted hard clearlist for literally any video game ever is going to cause 1000 drama

[foggy sable]

so why do people talk about TH more than the other r5 clear list

[fresh isle]

they have some interesting rules like no dshield no falling out of dreams and fury allowed

[shrewd nymph]

No dshield but fury seems super illogical to me

[fresh isle]

because th is a list also and it wasnt maintained as well?

also the only r5 clear list people use now is chinese

[crimson quiver]

Wut…?

[foggy sable]

you say a list also and yet you never see anyone talk about it

therefore it isn't the presense of a list itself

and the fact that the sentiment is widespread presumes something else

[fresh isle]

yeah the english r5 list had been dead for years

[shrewd nymph]

9/10 times i hear TH its just the fury rule

[foggy sable]

which is funny to me because the only good definition I've ever heard that was airtight was earlier today

and it excluded baldur

[shrewd nymph]

From throwout?

[foggy sable]

yes

[shrewd nymph]

i do think baldur isnt a hit but its kinda just a gut feeing intuitive definition

And i think including or excluding it is reasonable regardless

[foggy sable]

no one here says baldur isn't hitless but it gives i frames and triggers thorns

[fresh isle]

i just think being able to lose a run in dreamnail plats is reallyyyy funny

[shrewd nymph]

protects from flower tbf

[foggy sable]

triggers on hit charms

[fresh isle]

but yea they have 2 different rulesets for hitless and damagelesa

[real pasture]

Wouldn’t it be funny to fall in the dream nail segment? Oh wait…

[foggy sable]

so does everyone else

r5 is damageless by definition

[shrewd nymph]

Well overall

[fresh isle]

yeah

[foggy sable]

hitless is seperate rules so that

[fresh isle]

hi cortybald

[frigid terrace]

ALL THANKS TO ME 🎉

[shrewd nymph]

I think if you were very concerned about being technically hitless

Then you just wouldnt risk using baldurs and whatnot

[fresh isle]

yw

[vocal crypt]

hello nerds

[shrewd nymph]

And if you werent worried heavily then you'd do whatever you agree with

[fresh isle]

i got access to the r5 list and did like nothing with it lol

[warm aurora]

I just did p3 for the first time!

[foggy sable]

I've heard about anyrad hitless excluding cfm but including baldur

(correct me if I'm wrong)

and why is that done? to make it fun

[shrewd nymph]

i mean baldurless is just heaavy rng afaik

[fresh isle]

anyrad list 😭 (example of user maintained hardlist causing 1000 drama)

[foggy sable]

exactly hitless is just a ruleset that makes it fun

[shrewd nymph]

I think lists in general outside of like r5ab are eh

[foggy sable]

there is (almost) no objective ruleset because every one is done to make a specific thing fun

[shrewd nymph]

because r5ab theres no cfm, baldur, fury etc and its something you want to have be known

[dense fjord]

Omg lune and grey

[empty lynx]

TRUE

[subtle phoenix]

ok 2nd kill

[shrewd nymph]

I mean thats why i dont bother submitting my r5 or anyrad or whatnot

[wicked kiln]

Omg lune and grey

[shrewd nymph]

Hii vortex hru

[subtle phoenix]

im kinda gonna have to study now

[foggy sable]

and it is kinda both stupid and pretentious to pretend that a specific ruleset isn't

[shrewd nymph]

The ab^2 guy hii

[fresh isle]

i think r5 is cool bc its the hardest thing that the game itself recognizes

[dense fjord]

Amazing wbuu?:3

[foggy sable]

hii

[vocal crypt]

shaw

[foggy sable]

hi👋

[shrewd nymph]

Bouta head to bed, good sleep schedule incoming

[empty lynx]

P5ab double bosses

[dense fjord]

Couldnt be me

[foggy sable]

[dense fjord]

Hows it goin?

[shrewd nymph]

smh but p5ab glow overrides so its clearly harder

[empty lynx]

Anymarmu

[foggy sable]

That's an actual mod

[dense fjord]

Sweet dreams when u sleep:3 @shrewd nymph same for uu

[shrewd nymph]

All r1-5 are in game files but r5 has a little glow on the main jewel

[fresh isle]

anyrad players are crazy though i sent like a really shitty compressed video of my anyrad clear here YEARSS ago and they found it and put it on the list without me submitting anything

[shrewd nymph]

LMAO

[frigid terrace]

Deranged

[foggy sable]

I know

[shrewd nymph]

Well now i know not to send mine here

[foggy sable]

I was added to the Chinese r5 list without submitting anything

[dense fjord]

Thats insane

[shrewd nymph]

I dont wanna be on the list

[empty lynx]

Shit so hard They don't need proof to see it was done 😭

[frigid terrace]

Wait as in it's not even hosted on something?

[eager briar]

why not

[shrewd nymph]

I dont want people to see the list and see my name in last place

Being at the bottom sounds depressing and pitiful

[frigid terrace]

Haha last place chud

[shrewd nymph]

[fresh isle]

l take

[dense fjord]

Duality of man

[shrewd nymph]

I mean it is an L take

[fresh isle]

[shrewd nymph]

But its still how i feel

[fresh isle]

i dont mind talking about my negative opinion on anycord here

[real pasture]

Then you should be old and bald. Like me
