[rose ingot]

or the warrior dreams

[frozen storm]

Then hornet sentinel

[frozen storm]

I think you got the order wrong

[graceful storm]

Ok

[frozen storm]

Quickslash is the best charm in the game, change my mind

Not counting flukes

[rose ingot]

why would i change your mind from the truth?

[frozen storm]

Flukes are absolutely broken

[rose ingot]

flukes are pretty good, def underrated by most

[frozen storm]

They are broken man

Especially lingering glicth

[rose ingot]

yeah ig i just dont really count glitches

more power to ya if you do

[kind sigil]

is it just me or is moss charger the easiest boss to cheese

[rose ingot]

nope they are the easiest boss by far

[kind sigil]

no point using grubsong during a radiant boss huh

[rose ingot]

use weaversong with it, otherwise no

[kind sigil]

should i use glowing womb for radiant mantis lords since im not using my soul anyway or is gwomb shit there too

[rose ingot]

womb is kinda shit in general

[frozen storm]

If carefree Melodie activates, and you have grubsong, that's 15 free soul

[rose ingot]

https://tenor.com/view/its-free-real-sate-gif-7215175

[frozen storm]

Other than that, useless

[kind sigil]

how the hell do you use fotf during a radiant boss

is it that one invincible gif

[autumn ice]

fury?

doesnt do anything in radiants

[kind sigil]

so just this gif

https://tenor.com/view/thats-the-neat-part-you-dont-invincible-gif-27194608

[rose ingot]

yeah unfortunately you cant use it

you have to use unbreakable strength instead

[autumn ice]

you already get to overcharm for free

[kind sigil]

allow me to list every useless charm (that i have) for radiants

[rose ingot]

its something that annoys me about radiant bosses, half your charms are literally useless

[autumn ice]

that's fair but there's also not really anything you could do about that from a dev perspective

[subtle phoenix]

ok so like i died to markoth p5 now im fucking pissed off for no reason

im going to bed

[autumn ice]

i would recommend not dying (unironic)

practice in hog until you're consistent

beat him like 3x in a row on ascended or sth

[shrewd meadow]

I miss vzy

[rose ingot]

stalwart shell, thorns of agony, fragile and unbreakable heart, quick focus without shape of unn, deep focus without spore shroom, lifeblood heart, lifeblood core, joni's blessing, grubsong without weaversong, hiveblood, and fury of the fallen are all useless in radiant bosses, on top of all the charms that are already useless in hall of gods

[magic glacier]

me too throw

[autumn ice]

every charm that is not str qs shaman sbody mop nmg eater and like maybe twister is useless in radiant tbh

[rose ingot]

VZY stands for Very Zanny Yaks (I have no clue who they are im sure they were nice)

[shrewd meadow]

what

@cinder jackal hi zvy

[rose ingot]

oh thats who they are

hello vzy

[kind sigil]

massive inhale Joni's blessing, lifeblood heart, grubsong, fury, hiveblood, stalwart shell (which is shit anyway), quick focus, heart, deep focus (which is already horrible), and spore shroom are all the useless charms i have for radiant (hm: gathering swarm, greed)

[eager briar]

that’s harder than radiant probably

[rose ingot]

spore shroom is technically usable

don't, but you could

[kind sigil]

but would you ever use it

[shrewd meadow]

don't diss my goat stalwart shell

[autumn ice]

i cant judge that tbh it's been too long

[hollow grail]

Bro why is white palace actual torture

[kind sigil]

this is for radiant bosses

[shrewd meadow]

stalwart shell is op

[autumn ice]

point is, you wanna overpractice things in hall of gods imo

[rose ingot]

path of pain

[shrewd meadow]

you said stalwart is "shit anyway"

it's actually goated

[rose ingot]

yeah stalwart is good

[hollow grail]

That’s optional isn’t it?

[kind sigil]

yeah its only helped me in very specific cases

[autumn ice]

i've used stalwart shell more than most other charms to be fair

[shrewd meadow]

because you don't use it enough

[rose ingot]

yes but we all have to do it some day 😔😔

[autumn ice]

(this is becasue i havent used like half of them at all and stalwart is good for anyrad)

[shrewd meadow]

like sure it's useless for radiant but think about it
stalwart shell gives you more iframes than it takes to heal once

[kind sigil]

that shall stay unchanging, for all time

[autumn ice]

it can technically have a use in radiant bosses

with cfm/baldur

[hollow grail]

Why does the pale king even need this much protection bro🫩✌️

[autumn ice]

why you would do that is another question but that question applies to all but maybe 9 charms so

[rose ingot]

he really really really likes saw blades

[kind sigil]

this is why he died, nobody could actually reach him to serve him his food

[subtle glacier]

throw

[frozen storm]

Stalwart, thorns, grubsong alone have an use

[shrewd meadow]

hi choom

[frozen storm]

But it's extremely limited

[subtle glacier]

how throw

[frozen storm]

For some reason, dying with carefree doesn't reset the percentage

So you can take damage and it won't count

Source: wiki

[kind sigil]

wait carefree is viable for radiant?

[upper aurora]

finally i beat 3rd pantheon omg it took so long

[kind sigil]

ok

[frozen storm]

Yeah

[kind sigil]

coolio julio

[frozen storm]

Not viable

But works

You shouldn't rely on it

It's rng

[shrewd meadow]

waiting for food

hungy

[subtle glacier]

[kind sigil]

then get food

[shrewd meadow]

refer to above

[kind sigil]

then get food

[frozen storm]

Make your own

You just need time and patience

[shrewd meadow]

who said I wasn't making my own food

[keen thorn]

Stalwart with Baldur is actually usable

[kind sigil]

adrian explain our friend group

[keen thorn]

Also thorns

[shrewd meadow]

you had me until thorns

[keen thorn]

Thorns only radiant Uumuu is possible

[subtle glacier]

i hear if you yell at onions they sautee faster

[frozen storm]

"waiting for food" implies you ordered

[shrewd meadow]

no it doesn't it implies I'm cooking it in an air fryer

[keen thorn]

But thorns only radiant uumuu

[frozen storm]

No it doesn't

[shrewd meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/zzz-yuzuha-ukinami-meme-air-fryer-gif-7642990839589772534

[kind sigil]

true i actually did this and it made the onions instantly sautee out of fear

[frozen storm]

I own an air fryer

AND

It runs doom

[kind sigil]

i own an air fryer it just doesnt fucking work

[shrewd meadow]

anything can run doom that's not impressive

[frozen storm]

And bad apple too

[shrewd meadow]

that's also not impressive

[kind sigil]

make it run hollow knight

[still root]

Has anyone here made skin for HK Knight for example, if so then how did you do it? xD

I started making a skin for the knight and im only on the first frame and not even close to finishing it

[frozen storm]

No can do

[frozen storm]

Can yours run it though?

[shrewd meadow]

yes

[subtle glacier]

you’re more likely to find someone in #modding-discussion

[frozen storm]

Impressive

[kind sigil]

just make the skin

[keen thorn]

Popeyes just opened in my city

We're passing by and the queue is so long 😭

Both drive-tru and restaurant

[subtle glacier]

no eyes

more like

[kind sigil]

they boutta get some dry ass biscuits

[fiery trench]

aint no way Popeyes is that good

[keen thorn]

It's new tho

The queue is shorter than when Wendy's came

[subtle glacier]

if you replace every vowel in popeyes with an A you get papayas

[shrewd meadow]

no eyes more like Finland eyes

[keen thorn]

But Wendy's marketed it until death

[shrewd meadow]

🇫🇮

[gleaming forum]

puerto rico

[kind sigil]

no eyes more like no popeyes 😂

[shrewd meadow]

bro really stole chooms joke

[kind sigil]

i did not steal it

[keen thorn]

We like papayas

[subtle glacier]

do you like piña coladas

[keen thorn]

Papaya with panela cheese is goated

[tacit spear]

Hi genio ^_^

[keen thorn]

I've never had one with alcohol
But the alcohol free one is peak

[keen thorn]

Hi!

Knowing myself I'll probably not enjoy the alcohol one much

[subtle glacier]

enjoying alcohol isn’t about enjoying the taste anyways

[keen thorn]

Lol

[kind sigil]

a sword that is identical to another sword is not the same sword
let that sink in

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

[subtle glacier]

joke of theseus

[keen thorn]

If you replace every letter of a joke with an identical one, is it still the same joke?

[subtle glacier]

it wasn’t an identical joke bc i didn’t say the punchline

[shrewd meadow]

If you replace every letter of a joke with an identical one, is it still the same joke?

[worthy peak]

Yes. This does not apply to ships

[subtle glacier]

i think the complicating factor of the ship question is that the planks are not identical right

so like the overall quality of the ship can be improved without changing the structure

and whether or not that changes the ship

[shrewd meadow]

can we not post seizure inducing gifs thanks

[kind sigil]

oh crud

[keen thorn]

iF YOU REPLACE EVERY LETTER OF A JOKE WITH AN IDENTICAL OKE IS IT STILL THE SAME JOKE?

[kind sigil]

i sent two gifs in the span of 2 minutes

[subtle glacier]

oke

banned

[tacit spear]

No...

[keen thorn]

It changed the joke tho

Now it's yelling

[tacit spear]

Wait yes...

[tacit spear]

Now it's yelling

[subtle glacier]

i’m convinced

Also after being here for 2 minutes, bye everyone ^_^

[gentle lynx]

OH MY GOD GG

[tacit spear]

Gg ^_^

Good job on nkg ^_^

[gentle lynx]

worst hour i've ever experienced

[tacit spear]

What charms did you use?

[gentle lynx]

i didnt even use like a proper charm build lol

i still had wayward compass on 😭

[tacit spear]

I took 4 hours because I used only health/unbreakable strength ^_^

I had joni ^_^

Joni's blessing ^_^

[gentle lynx]

I don't think i would've ever done that fight if I didn't have quick focus

[gentle lynx]

I thought about using joni but honestly it takes up too many notches

[wild sierra]

RADIANT MARKOTH

[strong skiff]

@keen thorn

[tacit spear]

Hi lifeblood ^_^

[tacit spear]

Hi Roma ^_^

[strong skiff]

Hi....

[tacit spear]

How close on any rad are you now?

[keen thorn]

@strong skiff

[jagged crest]

heh.

[wild sierra]

i hate radiant markoth

also no carefree

[subtle glacier]

did bro repost his own joke

[strong skiff]

Genio health charms are pretty bad right

[keen thorn]

In general yes

[jagged crest]

speak no words.

[keen thorn]

It takes insanely op quick focus to be good

[strong skiff]

Design a good one

[wild sierra]

https://medal.tv/games/hollow-knight/clips/lVXPc2XAHxhJMSAYa?invite=cr-MSx6SXQsNDU1OTEzNTU2

[keen thorn]

You could just rebalance the existing ones ngl

But for a brand new one hm

[subtle glacier]

lk gpz tyrant o&m sheo

cinema

[keen thorn]

I'm thinking of something like

After landing 12 successful spell hits you get a lifeblood mask

[strong skiff]

Iiinterresting

[subtle glacier]

12

[strong skiff]

And how much does that cimost

What

[keen thorn]

12 is a multiple of 1, 2, 3 and 4

[strong skiff]

Cost*

[keen thorn]

All possible amounts of hits

[subtle glacier]

same vibes as “now do 14 neutral dashes”

[quartz cave]

@subtle glacier @keen thorn @strong skiff

[keen thorn]

For 12 hits probably, 3? Idk if it'd be better than quick focus

But it lets you stack a lot of hp

I think 3 would be fine?

[strong skiff]

3 nail hits=ddark=damage +¼ of a mask

Ig 3 notches is good

Breaks with flukes,you're immortal

[keen thorn]

Oh fluke synergy

[keen thorn]

Yeah, the idea also is, you need to actually land good spell usage

Just ddarking at random may do 1 or 2 ticks

Which is slow

[strong skiff]

Ddark is free evasion anyway

[keen thorn]

That's partly my idea, make casuals use better spells

[strong skiff]

Sounds like the best casual charm

Basically like

Subscribe to us for 3 notches and you get occasional FREE hp

Type shi

[keen thorn]

Did I just edit the message...

[strong skiff]

Yes....

[keen thorn]

With flukes every 10 flukes count as 1 spell tick

Make multis the skill expression of a double

Probably still too easy

[strong skiff]

What makes stalwart not good enough

[strong skiff]

On this topic

[pliant bough]

[knotty ravine]

oh what is this about

[fossil lagoon]

placenta build

[keen thorn]

Roma asked me to design a health charm

[keen thorn]

Just not many places where ifrsmes are not long enough or knockback is too much

Almost always you have enough time to escape

It's decent in damage tank builds because it lets 2 more quick slashes per health tanked

But AnyRad for example is a perfect scenario where you actually want the benefits
And it's pretty much mandatory as a result

[strong skiff]

So basically its like having a life jacket in a bath?

[keen thorn]

Yeah

It's really good in combo with Quickslash tho

[knotty ravine]

a health charm

[keen thorn]

The issue is it's 5 notches and QF alone is enough most of the time

[keen thorn]

Like, in a vacuum it is really good, the game just doesn't give it a place to thrive

Also happens with dashmaster

[strong skiff]

Its not bad its just not in the enviorment

Fair

[keen thorn]

Sprintmaster too and dreamwielder, although that one is still quite good

[strong skiff]

Is there a charm catogory hk could have but doesnt?

[keen thorn]

Wdym?

[strong skiff]

Like we have magic,nail,health,summon,exploration

Nart

[eager briar]

wing upgrade?

[strong skiff]

As categories

[keen thorn]

Eh idk

[eager briar]

Like dashmaster

[knotty ravine]

not sure

[tranquil mountain]

no wing dip charm :0

[strong skiff]

PLEASE

[knotty ravine]

no

[keen thorn]

Imo the categories are
Primary Damage (buffs your dps directly)
Secondary damage (helps with your dps in other ways)
Survival
Positioning
Exploration

[knotty ravine]

I’m not spending like

[tranquil mountain]

hahaha

[knotty ravine]

3 notches for something that should be in basegame

fuck off

[tranquil mountain]

1 notch!

[knotty ravine]

I will be keeping my mod

[keen thorn]

Yes please!!

[knotty ravine]

I am not wasting a notch for something that should be in basegame

fuck off

[eager briar]

ok

[tranquil mountain]

xD

[knotty ravine]

I will be keeping my mod

[keen thorn]

I'd give one notch for actually good buffering

[knotty ravine]

that makes the game better by default

[tranquil mountain]

keep your mod sonia

[tranquil mountain]

actually tho, the buffering in this game is buns deluxe

[strong skiff]

Positioning huh

[keen thorn]

Anything that helps you position in the arena better, and it can make you deal damage safer or be more aggressive

[knotty ravine]

i think there could be a place to let hk give you other active tools to help with stuff

[strong skiff]

Mop

I see

[tranquil mountain]

maybe something to make use of parries, like parry hits deal 1.5 damage or something like that

[knotty ravine]

stuff like ||sawtooth||, or like that dshield change I suggested

[keen thorn]

They are
Longnail, MoP, SB, Dashmaster, Sharp Shadow, Sprintmaster, Heavy Blow, Elegy (partially) and Stalwart (partially)

[strong skiff]

Useless

[keen thorn]

Partially because they have effects for this but it's not really why you'd bring them

[strong skiff]

Relying on parries is ass

[tranquil mountain]

:(

[knotty ravine]

maybe more charms that change things about tk

in fundamental ways like flukenest or the lament charm from pale court yk the one

[eager briar]

wings right after attack charm

[tranquil mountain]

parries would need to be more universal i agree, would be useless for like a ton of bosses and enemies

[knotty ravine]

I think it would be cool if there was more of that?

[strong skiff]

I was putting dasmaster into exploration but since we need a specific mop category,sure

[knotty ravine]

additional/differing tools

[tranquil mountain]

yeah definitely

[keen thorn]

Dashmaster is both

[tranquil mountain]

just more creative charms

[keen thorn]

Exploration is just a filler one for compass tho

[strong skiff]

Ik i just like didnt care

[strong skiff]

Swarm

Vh

[keen thorn]

And greed

[knotty ravine]

you know I’ve been playing a ton of rabbit and steel

[strong skiff]

Im saying even on a boss you can parry,spending one notch and WAITING to parry is just innefficient

[wild sierra]

radiant markoth is the worst

[knotty ravine]

I wonder how stuff like buffs for the specific classes could work on tk

[tranquil mountain]

mm i see

[knotty ravine]

something like darkspell might be completely op on tk, but still

[tranquil mountain]

what does darkspell do?

[knotty ravine]

well

maybe

so there’s this rabbit in rabbit and steel this class

spellsword

[wild sierra]

i frames

[copper spruce]

The

[strong skiff]

sellsword🔥

[wild sierra]

d dark best ability fr

[strong skiff]

Fencing,swashing my buckles..

[knotty ravine]

and the gimmick is basically your secondary gives you DARKSPELL, which you can have up to 9 of

and when you use your other abilities, it will use up one darkspell (or more/none depending on your gem upgrades) to cast the attack twice

[carmine lava]

is that the rabbit metroidvania

i saw skurry make a video on that i think

[quartz cave]

@carmine lava

[knotty ravine]

this works because there’s a general cooldown, so darkspell just casts the thing twice during gcd

[carmine lava]

hi

[quartz cave]

hii hyd

[knotty ravine]

and it’s awesome and I love spellsword

[carmine lava]

pretty awful

[quartz cave]

damn whys that

:(

[knotty ravine]

You might be thinking of pseudoregalia

[carmine lava]

uhhhh best to not say

[carmine lava]

nope

[knotty ravine]

rabbit and steel is a bullet heavy rougelite

[carmine lava]

https://youtu.be/cYbdvYk94jw?si=InGgiWkz9xQVxx2A

[knotty ravine]

what the fuck is that

no

[wild sierra]

who else agree radiant uuwuu is harder than radiant absrad

[carmine lava]

hopefully no one

[knotty ravine]

I mean I havent played uuwuu in years so I can’t comment

[wild sierra]

bruh

[knotty ravine]

but probably from what I can remember

[wild sierra]

uuwuu is the fucking worst

[carmine lava]

oh you actually meant uuwuu

[wild sierra]

strength cost 15000 geo to get back tho

[shy patio]

Feed the fragile charms to divine, then pay an exorbitant amount of money comparable to elderbug's life savings and she'll poop the unbreakable charm out

[vapid quiver]

How long

[vapid quiver]

WTF

[fiery trench]

u literally just need to start it

[shy patio]

Just farm the colo

i mean what does that change about farming geo

[vapid quiver]

My fingertips burning

[shy patio]

I mean silksong was made because the normal game couldnt handle hornet lol

[vapid quiver]

I did play HK on pc, it’s WAY easier, when ur hand covers half of screen and u tap on hit screen, it gives u pain

[shy patio]

I play for like 4 hours straight its the same as being on a phone your fingertips are not gonna burn am i right .

[static goblet]

yeah until you learn telekinesis

[rose ingot]

[vapid quiver]

I can’t, plus if I could I wouldn’t play it on phone

[static goblet]

BUT AREN'T I ALREADY DOING THAT!?!?!?

[brisk steppe]

i think it's not the same as playing on a phone considering indeed your fingers may cover a few parts of the screen

[vapid quiver]

also is that Rudie from Dandys world?

[brisk steppe]

but i even then? i don't think anyone's fingers are burning from hk mobile specifically

[fiery trench]

the batter wanted butter, but he wanted better butter since the one he had tasted bitter, so he got the better butter

[vapid quiver]

I love them so much

[fiery trench]

should I continue trying rad. tribe of battle

[jagged crest]

TELL ME what this character is like.
i have 18 million ocs and id like to attempt to help.

[rose ingot]

scorpion character who was born under a warrior tribe but rejected that lifestyle to become an archeologist, struggles with predatory instincts but means well

they also use their tail as a walking stick

[jagged crest]

hmmm...
let me take a look at the anatomy of a scorpion rq

[rose ingot]

they're specifically an emperor scorpion if that helps

[static goblet]

i do also have a profound catalogue but will not discuss it currently
( dms are open if u care sometimes i like talking abt this stuff )

[jagged crest]

the uh anatomy doesnt say jack shit but ill try that

i guess you could have the top half of their head have a mask and the lower half you can do whatever, like have a mouth or sum, if you have art of this oc i could maybe figure sum out

[rose ingot]

thanks ill try the half mask thing that might fix it

[jagged crest]

yw

[kind sigil]

just took a sip of soda thats been sitting out for days

i regret it

[proper thunder]

why y'all hate on ||thorns of Agony||

[kind sigil]

anyway what are some good builds for radiance

[rose ingot]

it does no damage and wastes your i frames

[jagged crest]

gng you do NOT need to spoiler here unless your actually K I N D

[proper thunder]

dang

[proper thunder]

well I'm K I N D

[static goblet]

the ones that kill her

[rose ingot]

it does as much damage as the un-upgraded nail so it sucks

[proper thunder]

oh

[knotty ravine]

main thing is just that it objectively nerfs you

ok ok for the record it does 1x nail damage each tick

it does scale based on your upgrade

[proper thunder]

enrique

[knotty ravine]

thorns eats your actionable iframes, and in return for that gives you basically always just one tick of damage that also doesn’t give you soul

[rose ingot]

ENRIQUE

[proper thunder]

does ||baldur shell|| shatter forever or no

[copper spruce]

Hi sonia

[rose ingot]

until you sit at a bench

[rare aurora]

yes

[proper thunder]

oh ok

[knotty ravine]

so it’s just better always to not equip it because you can just hit the attack button

[proper thunder]

also I'm being hunted by 3 primal aspids send help

[kind sigil]

seriously what are some good builds for The Radiance.

[proper thunder]

#hk-help

[copper spruce]

Strength

Shaman stone

Quickslash

[eager briar]

just the default good ones

it’s also better to lean into spell builds

[copper spruce]

Then whatever you want

[proper thunder]

heavy blow

[copper spruce]

Hi alp

[proper thunder]

waywardcompass

[eager briar]

except for mark of pride

[fiery trench]

does anyone have advice for Rad Tribe of Battle

I've been dying for about hr 30 now

[rose ingot]

work on your periphereal vision

[fiery trench]

nail harass or soul manip are good
nail harass: qs, strength, longnail, dash master.
soul manip: all charms with the word "soul", shaman, qfocus.
Any matching of these will help

[proper thunder]

fact: some reddit mods always have defenders Crest on them

[rose ingot]

why doesn't the knight eat the charms to permanently equip them, are they stupid?

[carmine lava]

how many days

[vale gull]

I just beat watcher nights first try

[proper thunder]

true

[proper thunder]

LIES

[kind sigil]

[proper thunder]

i've died fifty times

to brooding mawlek

[kind sigil]

spit it out cause it tasted horrible tho

[vale gull]

Its easy

[languid gale]

fr

hes only smart enough to eat the voidheart

[proper thunder]

y'all I hear a grub but I don't know where it is

[eager briar]

is it the queens garden one

[proper thunder]

kingdom edge

Where u ddark downward

[languid gale]

by the nailmasters hut?

[proper thunder]

yes

[wild sierra]

fish

[languid gale]

its right below the ddark spot

slightly to the right

[proper thunder]

Ok

I FOUND HIMMM :D

I died

[kind sigil]

mop and longnail interchangable depending on build?

[frozen storm]

Imo long nail is better because it fits in more builds

Mop can be useful for a specific few bosses

[rose ingot]

godseeker might be the dumbest character in hollow knight
they think the knight is just a pest right up until they LITERALLY KILL THE SUN

[frozen storm]

I mean

He's small

It's*

[rose ingot]

they deem hornet and broken vessel worthy, and they're about the same size

[frozen storm]

I'll still say he because of my first language

[rose ingot]

also they worship several wild animals

[frozen storm]

Like as..?

[pliant bough]

there is no sun

[chrome otter]

god this place so much calmer than sk discussion

[frozen storm]

There's only the radiance

[rose ingot]

massive moss charger, vengefly king, gruz mother, etc

[chrome otter]

there's like a whole Battlefield over there

[frozen storm]

Let me guess

Crests?

[chrome otter]

nope

[frozen storm]

Oh wow

Ships?

[chrome otter]

i don't even know what the topic is anymore

i think phantom being a girl or not

[frozen storm]

Oh that may be interesting to observe

[rose ingot]

gender debates

[frozen storm]

I mean

[rose ingot]

sigh

[frozen storm]

She sounds like one

[chrome otter]

anyways what's the topic here cuz I can't keep up with sk discussion

[frozen storm]

Dissing godseeker

Because she's dumb

[rose ingot]

massive moss charger is probably the silliest thing godseeker worships
its not even some sort of elder moss charger or whatever, its just like 5 moss chargers in a trench coat

[frozen storm]

Underestimating the knight

[rose ingot]

they don't even change their mind after the knight defeats their gods, they're just like "wow thats crazy anyways GET OUT OF MY HOUSE"

[chrome otter]

what the hell does the godseeker even worship the brooding mawlek for

[rose ingot]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrix9VbHrFc godseeker after the knight shows up in godhome

[rose ingot]

they label them as the lonely god of the nest so that ig

[fiery trench]

I think Imma quit trying one hp Tribe of Battle

its genuinley making me lose it

[rose ingot]

how rare, a hollow knight fan that values their sanity

[chrome otter]

so like worshipping a lone wolf type shit

[rose ingot]

godseeker was really reaching with mmm, they couldn't even come up with a good god name

"restless god of those who band together" come on vro

[graceful storm]

Special delivery:

[rose ingot]

congrats, your rewards is

Who's this

[chrome otter]

probably mms

mmc*

[frozen storm]

Makes sense

[frozen storm]

Gms...

Hot take: harder than the radiance

[chrome otter]

definitely hot take

personally i don't agree

[limpid hinge]

Alright, I'm just gonna say it now, ||weaversong|| is goated

it's carrying my fight with ||nkg||

[young lake]

floggy

i know who you are

[tulip narwhal]

I know too.

[kind sigil]

so do you get healed like you do with the normal dream worlds when you go into the radiance dream

[limpid hinge]

My charm build right now-

[kind sigil]

urgent

wait i can just find out myself

[chrome otter]

i think so ??

[heady sedge]

Nice job

[heady sedge]

I love summoning in any game

[limpid hinge]

Same

It's so fun lol

[kind sigil]

ok entering radiance heals you good to know (so i shouldnt worry about healing on thk which shouldnt be necessary cause thk is easy asf)

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

let that sink in

[limpid hinge]

Real

[kind sigil]

did i seriously just die to thk

wow

serious skill issue on my end

[eager briar]

sir another 3.0 victor has hit the game https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aivIIWTUe9k

[graceful storm]

I died to him all the fucking time when doing my 5 hour speedrun

Shit was awful

[subtle glacier]

yeah lotta people go through here saying how easy thk was bc they fought him with endgame damage but low equipment thk is humbling even for experienced runners

[noble ruin]

Omg is that floggy

[tulip narwhal]

no

[copper spruce]

He wasn't even hollow at all

Kinda bullshit

[chrome otter]

nail 2 shade soul shaman and soul catcher was a fun run

for the first time thk felt like a hard boss

wait i didn't even use shade soul

[cosmic shale]

other chat is sad so uh Quirrel and Hollow training under the nailmasters after the events of hollow knight and theyre like besties n stuff au

[brisk steppe]

skdisc is always sad

[chrome otter]

sk discussion is just a battlefield

i feel like I'm too dumb to even argue there

[brisk steppe]

i don't mind the topics i mind the people they attract

over too many horrid takes that get me wondering how these people live with those mindsets

[noble ruin]

I don't like that it's called all glitches like it's only using exploits specifically for the boss it's not like code working unintentionally or anything it's just using like cheesy strats. If it was actually all glitches you could just be invincible and air walk through the whole thing

[brisk steppe]

choomer

[cosmic shale]

everyones so combative. cant we all be happy and talk about the game n stuff

[subtle glacier]

just call it anyrad 3.0 glitched no invuln

tbh

all glitches is a stupid term anyway

[noble ruin]

Then air walk smh

Or Baldur storage

Actually idk if you can Baldur storage in this fight

[chrome otter]

arguing over pronouns in a game about bugs is just sad

[noble ruin]

Or room dupe acid in the boss

[subtle glacier]

downpatch to 1028 and thornwarp

[brisk steppe]

if you put it that way 🤷🏻‍♂️

[cosmic shale]

I mean tbf they are highly social and completely sentient bugs so I dont think that pronouns is a super out-there idea

[brisk steppe]

i don't think these discussions are bad considering a lot of current events

[shy patio]

Sil kong

[brisk steppe]

or even unnecessary really

[chrome otter]

true

[noble ruin]

Its a game about bugs with a lot of themes that go way beyond bugs like criticisms of capitalism and the elite

[subtle glacier]

i love criticisms of capitalism and the elite

[noble ruin]

And of religious systems used as a means of oppression and worker obedience

[young lake]

[graceful storm]

Use an army against The Radiance

[limpid hinge]

I haven't got there yet but I will when I do (I know what the radiance is)

[midnight knot]

i need build for hornet fight 2 plss

[chrome otter]

can you send your charms pls ?

[midnight knot]

ok

let me respawn rq

cuz i just got fucked by hornet

ok so its

[chrome otter]

i mean a screenshot

of your charms

[midnight knot]

ok

[chrome otter]

ok so I'd go with

quick slash shaman and grubsong

[midnight knot]

k

tanks mane

[chrome otter]

optionally you can go quick slash mark of pride and grubsong if you wanna focus on nail dmg

[midnight knot]

eh

nail dmg isnt necessary in alot of boss fght

lit idk why

but 99% of hk users use nail as support dmg

[civic kite]

Just go with the first one, you got this.

[chrome otter]

well nail-only builds are often used if you get hit a lot and can't use soul on spells

[knotty ravine]

what

this just isn’t true

??

[civic kite]

Ignore that....

[midnight knot]

in boss fights alot of people recommend spell spamming.

[chrome otter]

i think he meant it as dmg you get when getting soul for spells ?

[empty lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/genius-reyleigh-gif-2624811426640502973

[dawn tusk]

Finally,now to get em upgraded later

[civic kite]

Using nail only is a very viable strat, dude.

[chrome otter]

ehh it can be way slower than nail+spells

[proven torrent]

i use nail more than spells 😭

[empty lynx]

Spamming spells doesn't just mean to throw your nail away
It just means using everything else you have more

[dawn tusk]

First one I can upgrade is desolate dive

[chrome otter]

and i used nail only for most of my playtime

[midnight knot]

yay

i did it

😄

bye bye hornei

[empty lynx]

What up?

[midnight knot]

hornet

[civic kite]

Unless you're cracked with fury, most people aren't though.

[midnight knot]

no

no

[midnight knot]

tru

spells just do more dmg and more reliable than nail for some people

i lowk spam nail when i get my iframes and then i move away (if i dont have soul of course)

[civic kite]

Spells have that endlag which nail hits have very little of so you gotta be careful unless you're using Ddark in which case you need to be careful not to get hit in the startup frames.

[midnight knot]

ye

i use it if im half hp

[chrome otter]

y'all think i should try a rando cuz I've been really bored ever since i got plat on both games

[midnight knot]

cuz lowk i get dmg for no dmg cuz ddark has op iframes

is hk beatable without taking damage at all (1-112%)

[chrome otter]

gonna try that today when i wake up in approximately 11 hours

[civic kite]

Ddark really low dps, safe though.

[midnight knot]

yo btw what's a good all-rounder charm build in my inv (like 1-100-112%)

[civic kite]

Cool, randos are nice, good luck!

[chrome otter]

quick slash

[midnight knot]

what can i use that helps with bossfights, grinding, and generally pvp and pve

[chrome otter]

it's always in every build

[midnight knot]

wb like a charm set that can help me through my progress of the game to the end

[chrome otter]

ahhh

[civic kite]

QS, Shaman and get Strength after 2 more notches, that's the power trio.

[midnight knot]

silly

i got king branddd

yippee

[midnight knot]

quick slash, shaman, and fragile strength (unbreakable strength later after grimm)

[subtle glacier]

yeah

[chrome otter]

i personally used qs strength mop and longnail for all of the lategame

[empty lynx]

Someone did it
With fury tho

[midnight knot]

o

[subtle glacier]

eloki, one of the mods here, has done 112% p5 ending only taking 2 hits

[chrome otter]

switched longnail out for sharp shadow when i had to fight thk radiance or pure vessel

[subtle glacier]

that’s the closest attempt afaik

[keen thorn]

hi

[civic kite]

Could've used Spell twister for Radiance, no?

[keen thorn]

🦦

Choom guess what

[subtle glacier]

[midnight knot]

is hornet fight 2 late game or mid-game

[keen thorn]

https://youtu.be/S3BjHrhmQeo

[chrome otter]

i wasn't the best at dodging so all of my soul went to healing

[keen thorn]

I just did another 3 hit

[subtle glacier]

consistent

[keen thorn]

And you won't like my hits 💀

[subtle glacier]

ruh roh

[keen thorn]

1 to marmu because I jumped at the start for some reason

[subtle glacier]

buh

[civic kite]

I see, Soul catcher then.

[keen thorn]

and 2 to tyrant because I cdashed too low...

[vague creek]

Theoretically, say someone is playing their first playthrough and the bosses they are stuck on THEORETICALLY is radiance and nightmare grimm, how cooked would they be theoretically?

[midnight knot]

yo @chrome otter is quick slash, shaman stone, and sprintmaster good build or nah for my progress r

rn

[keen thorn]

I didn't practice cdash strats that's mb...

[subtle glacier]

at least you’re matching pb

[civic kite]

Grubsong instead of Sprintmaster.

[chrome otter]

you've got 8 notches yea ?

[keen thorn]

Main game final boss and DLC final boss

I mean

[midnight knot]

seven 😔

[vague creek]

But like

[keen thorn]

True

[vague creek]

Im assuming

[midnight knot]

aight

[vague creek]

Ass*

[midnight knot]

so quick slash, shaman stone, grubsong

is that good enough

[keen thorn]

But it's so bad that both my 3 hits had 2 hits because I just forgot the theory

[chrome otter]

huh

[midnight knot]

or a bit changes

[tulip narwhal]

@unborn crag

[chrome otter]

didn't you send me your charms and there was 8 notches ?

[midnight knot]

nah 7

[empty lynx]

Why would you cdash 💔

[midnight knot]

i can get like 8 tho

i think i have enough charms for it

[vague creek]

Everytime i die either to the pufferfish move or js after it cuz no healty

[chrome otter]

oh yea it's 7

[keen thorn]

You cdash in the corner because dive phase is rng

[chrome otter]

man i should just go sleep already

[vague creek]

And radiance is tanky

[keen thorn]

with sprintmaster there may be a way to not make it rng

[civic kite]

Yep, switch to Compass, Dashmaster, MOP and Grubsong when exploring I suppose.

[keen thorn]

but idk how

[midnight knot]

aight

[empty lynx]

Dashless r5?

[keen thorn]

yes

[midnight knot]

i dont really need compass since i got 200x better at finding my way around lowk

[empty lynx]

What if you just pogo

[subtle glacier]

it’s not like terrible rng but it is like a 1/4 to just lose

[keen thorn]

yeah

[keen thorn]

the issue is the offset

[midnight knot]

dashmaster imo kinda buns (it only gives u the ability to dash down which i have descending dark for)

[kindred wagon]

grubs look like i could just eat them

[subtle glacier]

he can spawn slightly to the side of above you sometimes

[keen thorn]

if the offset is the max it can be there's a 50/50 chance it happens in the direction you are moving

and that is unavoidable

[chrome otter]

it reduces the dash cooldown so you can almost dash after dashing

[civic kite]

Reduces dash cd by 33%, the best exploration charm.

[midnight knot]

oh yeah that too

thats pretty much the only good thing abt it no?

[chrome otter]

yup

[unborn crag]

@fresh isle please ban this one for me minion

[chrome otter]

the only time i saw the downdash be used was

pale court abyss platforming

[tulip narwhal]

Ughhhhh whats your problem

[unborn crag]

didnt play you vs homer with me

[keen thorn]

downdash is really good, but it has a really high skill ceiling and not many reasons someone would really use it

[subtle glacier]

if you watch 112apb runs you’ll see lots of downdashes

[keen thorn]

But if you master it, it really shines

[midnight knot]

i honestly need to stick with one charm set that is good for all-rounder game

like early-late

[keen thorn]

Speedruns tho

[civic kite]

It can actually be used almost everywhere to go slightly faster with good skill.

[subtle glacier]

not even slightly

like a lot

[keen thorn]

I almost swapped strenght for dashmaster in Any Rad

[civic kite]

I've never speedrun the game, so I don't really know.

[chrome otter]

aight imma go sleep bye chat

[civic kite]

Good night, bye!

[midnight knot]

night night
