[wicked trail]

So I can't even beat second trial rn

[weak shuttle]

colo is prob the best

[proud haven]

Technically it's the mini hoppers in edge but second colo is more fn

[wicked trail]

Thats why I'm stuck so I can get said best charm

[proud haven]

Just do mini hoppers with greed on

[weak shuttle]

what is said best charm?

[proud haven]

Quickslash obv right

[hearty monolith]

trial 1

[wicked trail]

Strength

[proud haven]

There's only one best charm and it's obv quickslash

[weak shuttle]

is it?

[hearty monolith]

second trial isnt that hard

[weak shuttle]

i dunno. arent there better oens?

[wicked trail]

I'm underequipped

[proud haven]

There's definitely nothing better fr

[wicked trail]

It's my first playthrough

[weak shuttle]

i cant tell if its sarcasm

[hearty monolith]

what do you have

like nail and charms

[wicked trail]

I'll go post in help

[proud haven]

Have you played hk yet or r u like

New

[weak shuttle]

iv beat it. but i just play to play. i barely know anything

[hearty monolith]

k

[weak shuttle]

so yeah. i barely know lore aswell. im tryna learn

whats bro yping

[proud haven]

Oh dude I'll be clear as I can be then with 0 sarcasm quickslash is definitely the best charm it increases dps the most and it lets all spell based or soul based charms help you sooner (cuz you hit the boss more) and it buffs all the nail charms (mark of pride sbody long nail strength fury elegy and that other one) in the same way
It's ust so peak to do everything faster

[wicked trail]

What about pure strength or wtv

[weak shuttle]

oh damn. i thought some of the better charms were like unbreakable strength,wayward,shaman stone, steady body, and hiveblood

[wicked trail]

Steady body isnt too good tbh

[weak shuttle]

or mark of pride

[proud haven]

Strength is so much worse without quickslash that i don't think you can give it #1 over quickslash
Strength also doesn't make you get more soul for spells and healing unlike quickslash

[wicked trail]

I do agree with this one

[wicked trail]

True

[weak shuttle]

i mean ig

[proud haven]

Yay I love when everyone says I am right

[weak shuttle]

;-;

[proud haven]

Yippeee fr I am gonna go do chores

[errant pilot]

I got the love key

Now heading to the collector js to defeat him and get 31 grubs for my last nail upgrade

[weak shuttle]

how do grubs have naything to do with nail

[proud haven]

Pale ore

[weak shuttle]

oh

whoops.

[vestal oxide]

I just died to the last two watcher knights .

[maiden gorge]

@storm bolt major progress I got 8 hearts and I defeated hornet v2 and now I'm trying to get shadow dash which imo is super hard to get because of the stupid shadows

[fallen kayak]

MY TWITTER TIMELINE IS FILLED WITH THESE DAVID BASZUCKI POSTS ITS S OFUCKING FUNNY

[wicked trail]

Whatcher knights SUCK

Have you done the chandelier yet?

[errant pilot]

Wh

[vestal oxide]

godhome

[wicked trail]

Oh lol oops

So yeah you probably have

At some point

[errant pilot]

Ngl what this means

[crisp grove]

Ok but why is ||sly|| so difficult

Any tips?

[wicked trail]

Dodge?

[unique wolf]

Just you wait until Pure Vessel

[brisk thunder]

Release the basuckitos onto the David pastures

[unique wolf]

For the final phase where he zips around a bunch, stay in the middle. If he corners you there'll be no escape

If you can spam him with spells, that's a bonus

[crisp grove]

[worthy peak]

MoP unless you ask someone who isn't baised

[crisp grove]

He... He has multiple phases?

[unique wolf]

That was the hardest aspect of Sly for me. In the main phase, his moves eventually become easily telegraphed and easy to respond to

[unique wolf]

Two of them IIRC

[worthy peak]

Second phases is super short dw

[crisp grove]

I only saw the first one

[unique wolf]

Both of Sly's phases are hard at first but there's always a heuristic you can use to make them easier

[flint ore]

sorry you got spoiled but first phase is just pattern recognition

[unique wolf]

I don't know how much more grateful I could have been to find out that neither of Pure Vessel's "added on later" moves were actually hard

[vivid creek]

Just stand still and shade dash away when he attacks.
Punish with a greatslash or a couple nail strikes

[maiden gorge]

my friend took him 4 days to defeat pure vessel

[unique wolf]

You just can't do that if you're in a corner I don't think

[unique wolf]

my self took me 4 weeks to defeat pure vessel

[vivid creek]

I mean, just don't corner yourself

Or ddark if you do get stuck in a corner

[subtle phoenix]

radiant sly

[radiant bear]

Nice

[subtle phoenix]

3 more

[indigo pebble]

Goodluck on markoth

[errant pilot]

Defeated collector now

Time to save the kids

[subtle phoenix]

im going on holiday on friday so im not gonna be able to attempt him for 2 weeks

unless i go on my laptop

[indigo pebble]

good

[fringe seal]

What can you do in Distant village in Hollow Knight?
It's a really cool area,but besides the dreamer there isn't anything that special

[subtle phoenix]

but there wont be internet

[ripe lotus]

yall is buying hk 1 worth it

[indigo pebble]

dont torture yourself

[vivid creek]

Markoth is just narts phase 1 & shade soul spam phase 2
Ideally with shamans + twister & overcharmed souleater

[fringe seal]

I wish they did atleast one boss

[indigo pebble]

"is grass green"

[flint ore]

do you expect a no from a hollow knight centered server

[ripe lotus]

well

there is my answer

[fringe seal]

It is.
But to save money don't buy it for the full price
Buy a game key,they are much cheaper

[indigo pebble]

i mean some games would say no

[subtle phoenix]

no this game fucking sucks!!!!!

[ripe lotus]

well uh

[indigo pebble]

like some game servers

[wicked trail]

Is pure heart or pure strength better

[ripe lotus]

what price does a game key give

[indigo pebble]

do you like being safe or do you like destruction

[wicked trail]

I mean like both?

[subtle phoenix]

heart for survivability strength for killing things faster

[wicked trail]

Can anyone help me make my best build rq help

[indigo pebble]

then get a wheel or flip a coin

[flint ore]

why would anyone in a discord server about a game not recommend their game

[vestal oxide]

finally did ascended watcher knights

[errant pilot]

Hearing the city of tears action so tuff 😭✌️

[indigo pebble]

the game falling off to hell

[vestal oxide]

alright does anybody have the most disgusting overcharm build for rad watcher knights

[flint ore]

that shouldnt matter unless its a live service multiplayer game

[fringe seal]

Well In my currency i could get hollow knight for around 350 crowns and with buying the steam key i got it for 180 crowns
That's a big difference

[subtle phoenix]

instead of learning for chemistry because shes gonna probably ask me to answer tomorrow ima do rad oro and mato

[fringe seal]

Almost half cheaper

[indigo pebble]

also what the hell is a steam key

[flint ore]

a code you can redeem on steam to acquire a game

[indigo pebble]

based

[fringe seal]

And they are much cheaper.
After this information i wanna buy all my games as keys

[subtle phoenix]

yayayayaayayaa

[woven arch]

Guys if I liked hollow knight, should I get Silksong

[coarse latch]

Path of pain was too easy i need something harder

[flint ore]

duh

[woven arch]

But the thing is

My friend keeps yapping and sending propaganda

Thats why I deliberately don’t wanna play it, but I don’t know if I actually wanna give it a tty

[worthy peak]

Yes. Especially since dlc is coming

[hearty monolith]

trampass

[worthy peak]

Not in distant village though?

[hearty monolith]

oh distant village

[worthy peak]

There's a grub and some relics

Also a part of the grim troupe quest

[hearty monolith]

[dapper mortar]

[unique wolf]

Uuuurk Radiant Markoth is not easy

Also how in tarnations did you get Radiant GPZ

[subtle phoenix]

[fossil island]

Thats disloyal to hkmain

[quartz cave]

hk got boring after a while

[fossil island]

[runic karma]

My pitbull ate one

[quartz cave]

interesting

[dawn tusk]

I lost fucking 7k geo to a god damn LESSER MAWLEK

I HATE THOSE THINGS

[foggy thistle]

Guys I am so happy today

[primal bane]

is that the ones with no legs or the tiny ones

[hallow kettle]

I hate there whole family

Fuck brooding mawlek

[foggy thistle]

He was easy tho
Safe to say it was a free mask shard

[hallow kettle]

Brooding mawlek was so much easier on radiant than on attuned

[hallow kettle]

Hardest normal boss for me

[primal bane]

no I dont think I want to

it might melt my equipmen t

[hallow kettle]

Problem is I found him late end game

Didnt know he existed

Had all my equipment maxed

[dawn tusk]

With legs

[hallow kettle]

And underestimated him

[foggy thistle]

Guys I got 2 endings out of 5 am I good ?

[dawn tusk]

And small

[hallow kettle]

No

Do radiant

[foggy thistle]

:c

[dawn tusk]

Wait can I repeat the trial of the warrior for geo?

[hallow kettle]

The radiant is very important you just made a worse ending

[hallow kettle]

Yes

It is better than trial of fool

In every way

[foggy thistle]

What is radiant

[hallow kettle]

I ment radiance

[dawn tusk]

Harder bosses

[hallow kettle]

Radiant is a difficulty

[foggy thistle]

Well I did it today

[hallow kettle]

Ok now you can stop

Or try and go for abs radiance

[foggy thistle]

The other one is sealed siblings

[hallow kettle]

Abs radiance shall take you like so much more time

You need to master every espect of the game

[foggy thistle]

Wait I unlock the door to abs rad after I beat radiance ?

[hallow kettle]

No

[foggy thistle]

Oh

[hallow kettle]

You got to trash pit

Unlock the door with a simple key

Use your dream sword

Then explore the area

[foggy thistle]

No but like in hall of gods

I already found godseeker

[hallow kettle]

You need to complete all pamtheons

[foggy thistle]

Then I'm cookity cooked

[hallow kettle]

Abs rad pantheon is like all pantheons combined

But a bit harder

After discovering abs radiance or any other boss in the pantheon you will unlock him

[strong skiff]

@subtle glacier Are you free to bingy tomorrow

[errant pilot]

I did it, i got the first kingsoul

From pale king

[agile zephyr]

Two left.

Both locked behind a lot.

Anyway, Mushy.

Did they really make a Hungry Knight reference?

[small moss]

i have silksong and i also have enough left to get hk, should i get hk as well or nah? (ive already fully-ish played hk on a different console but im on a new one so maybe better experience)

[graceful storm]

Hollow Knight pogo only run possible?

[strong skiff]

Ez

[agile zephyr]

Yes.

[graceful storm]

so it IS possible...

hmmm

[strong skiff]

It could depend what you mean by possible and pogo only

[graceful storm]

is it possible to beat Hollow Knight with just pogo?

[strong skiff]

For example if narts arent allowed,you wouldnt be able to cut vines
But i dont think any of those are even required so

[strong skiff]

Any%? 112? True 100?

[graceful storm]

any%

[carmine lava]

definitely true 100%

[graceful storm]

true 100% would prob not be possible

[strong skiff]

Any% is free

[carmine lava]

everyone means true 100% when they ask about beating hk

[strong skiff]

Who knows

[graceful storm]

but just doing basic stuff to beat the game(dreamers and THK) sounds possible with only pogo

[strong skiff]

Also pogo only is stretcheble

Pogo only as a nail direction or the only damage source
Or the only thing beside walking and jumping

[carmine lava]

it could be possible as the only damage source if you do blue lake shade skip

but idk the route from there to greenpath very well

so that might require non pogos for all i know

[strong skiff]

Ah because no vs

Or dsheild

Well again its up to rules
Is stallball allowed

That aint damage

[carmine lava]

how do you get out of the vs area though

[strong skiff]

Oh right

Glitches..well ig iblss is the only way

[carmine lava]

glitches are lame though

[strong skiff]

Does that require side slashes futher down the line

[carmine lava]

idk

[strong skiff]

Delayed bench interraction is cool imo

[carmine lava]

i don't really see why it would

what in this game do you need side slashes for even

[strong skiff]

Maybe to move an enemy

[carmine lava]

other than like cg

[strong skiff]

Vines,moving enemies,potentially knockback

Vines include watchers and storerooms

And yeah peak enemies

[tired juniper]

Guys can you get isma's tear without crystal dash?

[unique badge]

hiii besties :3

[unique badge]

yeah

[strong skiff]

Mag ismas holy

[unique badge]

they never asked how

[tired juniper]

how

[strong skiff]

Well mag ismas isnt required
Surely sharp shadow🔥

Or shroho

Or just like dung defender bruh

[unique badge]

shriek poho

[tired juniper]

I beat dung defender and I am literally near the abyss lmao

[strong skiff]

You need wings,for which you need another skip

[unique badge]

shade pogo

[strong skiff]

Then just spike tunnel and gg

[unique badge]

or stallball

[tired juniper]

[strong skiff]

Also requires a nail upgrade
Or hp
Or womb
Or elegy

[heavy barn]

what about the opposite

is there a max pogoless% run

[strong skiff]

Yeah kama did that

Its either 110 or 111%

One guaranteed one being the deepnest vessel frag

I think it is 111

[worldly oak]

i did the delicate flower quest first try

had unstrength, qs, compass, and MoP on

i now have every mask shard, every vessel fragment, pure nail, all upgrades of all the spells, and all of the nail arts

[hidden spire]

That's nice

[worldly oak]

my inventory rn

[graceful storm]

Shriek pogo is ez

QGS is ez

[woven arch]

Nice

[worldly oak]

yippeee

[plucky valve]

does unbreakable strength also buff spell damage?

[tired juniper]

I can't get used to not healing 3 masks at a time lmao I got so used to it because of silksong

[plucky valve]

yeah that and healing in mid air

[frigid terrace]

No that would be Shaman Stone

[tired juniper]

I like how salubra sells you the best charm for 200 geo only lol

[plucky valve]

true shaman stone is busted

[frozen storm]

I miss her,,,

[proven torrent]

salubra needs to up the prices bro

200 geo for the best charm in the game 😭

[inland patrol]

Fuck soul twisters fuck soul twisters fuck soul twisters

[worthy peak]

actually salubra doesn't sell you MoP or quickslash.

[proven torrent]

thats certainly an opinion

[near geyser]

She does sell quick focus though.

[inland patrol]

Yes these fuckers

[worthy peak]

MoP is best cause i like it. Quickslash is best becuase of actual combat use.

Speeds up the fight more i think

[proven torrent]

"MoP is best cause I like it" ??

[near geyser]

They’re worse than

[inland patrol]

Especially the floor with 3 of them

[worthy peak]

Yes. That is the subjective type of best,

[near geyser]

I don’t have trouble with Aspids, soul twisters however, they elude me for one minute until I hit them.

[worthy peak]

well its all subjective

[near geyser]

That was abysmal in early game.

[worthy peak]

but the as in its my favourite

[inland patrol]

Fuck soul twisters

[near geyser]

These guys are the worst though.

Not in terms of difficulty just in terms of giving me a damn heart attack.

[inland patrol]

FUCK I DIED TO THE LAST ONE

[near geyser]

That sucks.

[lost kestrel]

Beasts den is just the worst of fears

[inland patrol]

Realye made this seem too easy 💔

[near geyser]

Beast’s Den can go fuck itself. That is my least favorite segment of the game.

[graceful storm]

I FINALLY BEAT OBLOBBLES RADIANT

TOOK ME FUCKING DAYS HOLY SHIT

[obtuse bluff]

Good job well done

[graceful storm]

spell spam was amazing

[obtuse bluff]

[inland patrol]

Can I say the other word of cat here is that not allowed

[near geyser]

And what would that be?
-# don’t say it I know what it is already.

[inland patrol]

Seems like it's allowed

Cuz I searched it and theres a 1000 messages

[plucky valve]

after playing silksong I feel like I can live without MoP but cant live without quick slash or shaman

[wary hound]

U do realise there’s like several people with hundreds of thousands of messages that means that gets said very unoften

But idk maybe

[spiral sierra]

#hk-art-gallery message y’all like it?

[inland patrol]

I was asking wether it's allowed or not, not if people use it alot

[inland patrol]

Art is amazing but I have no idea who that is

[wary hound]

Yeh Ik im just saying that ima go check rq

I think MAYBE If not used in a toxic or disrespectful way but I’m kinda dum so idk

[frozen storm]

Wanderson?

[frozen storm]

Another common plasm sherma w

[plucky valve]

I am a hunter main but use wanderer occasionally for certain bosses.

[agile zephyr]

I can fight the Collector.

[frozen storm]

Hunter is fun

But Wandys is my goat

[plucky valve]

yeah the damage buff is and the down pogo are super fun imo

[frozen storm]

POGO SPAAAAAAAAMMMM

[agile zephyr]

Just need a few more Grubs and I can get a Pale Ore.

And I need all of them for 112% so.

[near geyser]

W Pure Nail.

[inland patrol]

Got to soul master

I did a bit decently first try second one he beat the shit out of me

I also now have to only fight 1 soul twister

[spiral sierra]

Who’s what?

[last moss]

idk

[near geyser]

Soul Master is kinda easy.

[inland patrol]

Btw can you get out of city of tears without the dive thingy

[near geyser]

You can.

[inland patrol]

WHAT

[ruby kraken]

can nelson mandela beat thinking space 2

[inland patrol]

So I'm doing all this for nothing 💔

[near geyser]

I recently found out that you can leave city of tears after getting the dive.

[graceful storm]

Everytime I abyss shriek hive knight I die

cuz it pulls him to me

idfk why but it does

[inland patrol]

Oh well might as well get it

Don't want to enter this shithole outside of upgrading my nail

[last moss]

how do u upgrade the nail

[near geyser]

Pale Ore.

[last moss]

whats that im kind of new to hk

[near geyser]

You’ll find out.

[dense sparrow]

yea with fast travel

[inland patrol]

Eh might as well beat him

Also am I gonna fight the hollow knight cuz I saw his mark when I was checking forgotten crossroads

[solar owl]

https://tenor.com/view/flea-silksong-hollow-knight-animation-spin-gif-11202827404216638432

[inland patrol]

What

[oblique wagon]

[inland patrol]

No I mean I don't want to fight the hollow knight rn

[quasi forge]

You can’t if you haven’t killed the dreamers.

GIT GUD

[hybrid swallow]

[quasi forge]

basically dont heal lmao

[hybrid swallow]

Its impossible to heal in stage 2

[quasi forge]

nah its possible

[inland patrol]

Trail and error will be the way to go I guess

[hybrid swallow]

the broomrang thing

[quasi forge]

when they throw their blades if they do the slow one

then stand in middle

[hybrid swallow]

yeah

[inland patrol]

How much hp does he have

[hybrid swallow]

[hybrid swallow]

[quasi forge]

[woven arch]

You guys wanna see smth cool

[inland patrol]

Thats if I use nail only so I guess vengeful spirit can lower it

[hybrid swallow]

and vengeful spirit is hard to use too

[shy patio]

[hybrid swallow]

the nail is peak though

[coral marlin]

Guys, Hollow Knight crashed when I tried to put Gathering Swarm on

What the fuck man lmao

[dusty sedge]

Can you tp to dreamgates at the benches/break point in the the middle of a pantheon challenge right before the final fight of the challenge?

[coral marlin]

No, Dreamgate just boots you out of the Pantheon if you try it

[quasi forge]

you cant put a dreamgate in some places

inside buildings (i think? dont quote me on that) and other dreams

[coral marlin]

Well you can't put a Dreamgate anywhere in Godhome.

Godhome itself is a dream realm.

[quasi forge]

and uh i remember i couldnt put it before a boss so maye there are other exceptions

[coral marlin]

Yeah there are exceptions. Somehow, one of those is being too close to the colosseum entrance (like three steps away from it)

[quasi forge]

and corridor before hive knight

[inland patrol]

Aight chat I killed soul master

2nd phase was free lmao

[plush mantle]

WHAT DO U WANT

[hybrid swallow]

[inland patrol]

How do I desolate dive (my key binds are in #hk-help )

[fiery trench]

I head cannon it as them ripping it off as the infection took its hold, as they violently shook against their chains

[fiery trench]

[fiery trench]

oh hey
the pain of my final vanilla hk challenge and the one move I dont wanna use

[plush tree]

It is free when you know it's coming

[carmine lava]

what are you doing

[rich parcel]

I just defeated INFINITY

[wary hound]

gj

[rich parcel]

it took me everything, don’t try this at home

[wary hound]

it isnt THAT bad

[rich parcel]

He’s too hard tbh

[spiral sierra]

#hk-art-gallery message

Grub

[wary hound]

normal infiinty is pretty tame

[rich parcel]

Yeah hes not too bad, i meant the harder version

[wary hound]

nice

[graceful storm]

I'm getting nuked by Broken Vessel's random ass jumping 😭

[wary hound]

real

[fiery trench]

p5ab

although my pb is Sheo

[carmine lava]

why aren't you using ddark

[wary hound]

gl

[graceful storm]

nvm got him

[fiery trench]

cuz I’m spending it all on healing

[carmine lava]

so you can use ddark

[keen thorn]

one ddark is one mask with no need to be healed

[graceful storm]

ddark is a life saver

[fiery trench]

I’m honestly just too nail coded to think about ddark

trying to break that habit but it’ll take a bit

bigger issues is finding a consitent line on Obblobbles and Marmu

[keen thorn]

spells have so much more damage than the nail in AB, the difference is massive

Doing nail only is actually so much harder AB than normal

[fiery trench]

too bad neither help me with Marmu (so far)

[frigid terrace]

Lifeblood seed skin is actually nuts

[keen thorn]

ddark Marmu

legit game changer

[fiery trench]

hmm
alr I’ll try it

[keen thorn]

if you have soul after a teleport you must ddark

from then her position is so much easier to control

[fiery trench]

if I can get past Marmu with good hp and lifeblood then it’ll make me feel safer
since I’d still have Collector and GPZ

from there, only Moth

attempt 3 or 4 time

[keen thorn]

fucking floaty wings

[graceful storm]

I don't feel like fighting Lost Kin today

[sour dust]

Easy boss fight

[inland patrol]

Mantis Lords are so unpredictable

[fiery trench]

useless psa
u can parry Oro dash slash with ddark

[viral schooner]

Which is the most edible Npc in hollow knight

[near geyser]

…

[tribal gust]

Hello duoloo!

[near geyser]

Not me, I am not edible.

[fiery trench]

Well if we’re to go off of irl logic then manti, old stag, and elderbug show up as optipns

[fiery trench]

wsg cro

[tribal gust]

Good wbu

[fiery trench]

died twice or thrice to p5ab, but otherwise good

[tribal gust]

Unlucky

[fiery trench]

and I just lost 3 lifeblood masks to soul master

tf am I doing?

[near geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-gif-23195488

[fiery trench]

i started the fight with 4 lifeblood hearts
I’m at phase 2 with 0

feel bad for him tho, cuz he can still get hit on the fake dives

[surreal crystal]

one of the best parasites / viruses ive ever seen in media might be lifeblood

[fiery trench]

maybe
but it sure as hell helps

also pokerus gives it a run for its money

[surreal crystal]

fair point

[worn hamlet]

how ;-;

I did not mean to say a slur the moment I came here ;-;

[fiery trench]

a virus that is solely helpful with the only down side being its rarity

[worn hamlet]

yeah it's certainly interesting

[fiery trench]

it even infects pokemon in the pc, so spreading it isnt hard once u have it

[worn hamlet]

but there's no lore implications, barely any mentions in any media

like how is it good

[worn hamlet]

oh huh interesting

[vernal knot]

Hello

[worn hamlet]

[agile zephyr]

No.

[fiery trench]

[fiery trench]

alr, then for now he’s a goober

[vernal knot]

Shade Soul slimes the fucker

[graceful storm]

hive knight was already tanky enough

[vernal knot]

Lost Kin actually ended my steel soul run once

[agile zephyr]

Spell build.

[vernal knot]

I got confident I could do it with VS

[agile zephyr]

Fuck it, we ball.

[graceful storm]

but lost kin also has 1200 hp

[fiery trench]

when you see him move away from u, shade soul and u’ll get 2 hits instead of one

[graceful storm]

how

dream bosses dont end steel soul

[vernal knot]

I counted Dream deaths as actual deaths

Because it was more fun

[graceful storm]

.

[vernal knot]

So I just deleted the save file

[graceful storm]

even white palace?

[vernal knot]

Yeah

[graceful storm]

-# even godhome?

[vernal knot]

I mean dying in WP is straight up Skill issue

[fiery trench]

well that just ends steel soul

[vernal knot]

Also WP in general ends Steel Soul runs

[graceful storm]

fr

[vernal knot]

Yeah my farthest run died to P2 Sheo

[graceful storm]

pop is ez

[agile zephyr]

Quick Focus is fun.

[vernal knot]

Once again got over confident and did not practice them

[fiery trench]

I died in PoP after getting kingsoul in a steel soul run lmao

[graceful storm]

pop with grubberfly and mop was fun

[fiery trench]

do it with all minions trust

[graceful storm]

cuz they attack wingsmoulds?

[vernal knot]

@fiery trench You've done Path Of Pure Vessel?

[fiery trench]

they try to attack the wingsmoulds
they end up being W emotional support

[agile zephyr]

Why the Collector freaky?

[fiery trench]

I’ll do it after p5ab since I wanna get that over with

[vernal knot]

How the P5AB goin'

[fiery trench]

[vernal knot]

Where do you come up with this ts

[brisk steppe]

Just somewhere in 2026

[fiery trench]

recolorerd the head spike blue cuz I prefer that color

[vernal knot]

Gang you always use the same colors, I can tell

[wary hound]

who wants to have a cultist named after themselves who is immortal in cultist in cult of the lamb

[brisk steppe]

NARINDER 😳🥹

[wary hound]

?

[brisk steppe]

it super cute

[wary hound]

its the one who waitss ( the god who we work for )

[fiery trench]

quick slash, sbody, or strength
qs fits on all builds, sbody is the best 1 charm notch, and strength can straight up be slapped onto anything and just work

[brisk steppe]

thats narinder!

[wary hound]

idk

im like new to the game

[brisk steppe]

the name is revealed by shamura

[brisk steppe]

ooooh that checks out

[paper briar]

Sharp shadow is actually the best

[agile zephyr]

Kingsoul, Hiveblood, Shape of Unn, Unbreakable Strength.

[fiery trench]

flukenest?

[brisk steppe]

sshadow isn't even close to being the best charm

[paper briar]

It absolutely is

[wary hound]

yeh also how do i get the stuff for new fleeeces

[agile zephyr]

Soul Eater?

[brisk steppe]

theyre unlocked mainly with the holy talisman

except for three

[wary hound]

idk wat dat is

[brisk steppe]

uhhhh lef me get a ss

[wary hound]

u want me to give u one?

[wary hound]

how do i aqure those

[viral schooner]

Why u ping me

[vernal knot]

July, Japan

what does Yuriba mean

[agile zephyr]

Rank the build:
Quick Focus, Soul Eater, Grubsong, Shaman Stone.

[fiery trench]

valid

if it works it works

[brisk steppe]

multiple quests around the areas (you'll probably unlock them later) such as the fishermen's and sozo's, the plimbo eye quest too

[knotty ravine]

oh sharp shadow

[agile zephyr]

Tram music slaps.

[brisk steppe]

Short for yuri bait

[knotty ravine]

that shit is nowhere near the best

[wary hound]

oh so I SHOULDve just done that

[brisk steppe]

yessie

[wary hound]

the fishing

[fiery trench]

goes harder then it needs to

[hidden spire]

I finished MiO yesterday for the first time it's good

[brisk steppe]

sbody

[fiery trench]

is it good: no
should I be using it to overcharm for ascended pv: fuck no
will I: absolutely, fury quick slash go brrr

[hidden spire]

Awesome.. I like it better than both HK and nine sols

[brisk steppe]

i didn't finish mio yet

with the amount of people here praising it i should probably tune it in again

[agile zephyr]

Ha ha.

[hidden spire]

It's beautiful. The voice acting is something else

[agile zephyr]

I am smart.

[fiery trench]

I’m assuimg by charm from sly u mean nailmasters glory
regardless, it works, regardless of its lack of singular game plan

[brisk steppe]

a game

[fiery trench]

also btw its soul catcher and not soul sucker

[agile zephyr]

Let me check Infected Crossroads.

Need to go there to see Grubfather anyway.

Why is there a heartbeat?

[fiery trench]

I dont think I’ve ever used it seriously
just not the type to use nail arts outside of bindings

[worn hamlet]

:3

[keen thorn]

New distance PB :D

[frail otter]

I think it goes away if you ||beat the holllow knight||

[keen thorn]

Hi macaron!

[frail otter]

although I never checked

[worn hamlet]

hoi genio :D

how ya doin today?

[fiery trench]

it doesnt
endings dont effect the game

[agile zephyr]

Over 6,000 Geo again.

[keen thorn]

Really good, I just got a distance pb!

[fiery trench]

[agile zephyr]

Yes.

Only two left.

[fiery trench]

[worn hamlet]

[agile zephyr]

What is bro yapping about? 🥀

[worn hamlet]

[keen thorn]

dashless R5

[worn hamlet]

danggg that's cool

[agile zephyr]

Okay Zote.

[worn hamlet]

working towards itemless?

[keen thorn]

Got to lost kin!

[fiery trench]

Ur ability to go this far will never cease to amaze me

[keen thorn]

I don't wanna talk about the ending tho

[agile zephyr]

Grimmchild, kill Zote for me.

[worn hamlet]

?

are those the deaths?

[fiery trench]

it gets better with repetition, trust me

[keen thorn]

[agile zephyr]

Just gonna get Pure Nail and get that last Grub here.

[errant pilot]

Phanteon of Fard'onest

[worn hamlet]

ohh I see

damn

[keen thorn]

EXCUSE ME?

[fiery trench]

alr, after a good break, back to the suffering that is p5ab

[worn hamlet]

._.

[fiery trench]

…

[worn hamlet]

yes, but it's extremely difficult and unintended by the devs

myla :D

[agile zephyr]

Myla is peak.

[fiery trench]

yesnt
u can avoid getting cdash and dive and she wont get infected
u cant fully prevent her outside of this

[worn hamlet]

true

[agile zephyr]

I keep breaking elevators.

[worn hamlet]

technically according to lore next time the radiance breaks free she's just kinda screwed

bc I don't think you can get the dream no more ending without cdash and dive

[bold needle]

Heyo

[agile zephyr]

Hello Nailsmith.

Pure Nail time.

[fiery trench]

wsg

[agile zephyr]

Nailsmith? Yeah.

I'm not killing you dude.

[fiery trench]

gay and dead af in my save

[agile zephyr]

"Happy Couple."

Gonna go back to Sheo.

[worn hamlet]

fact

when you get the achivement for getting them together it's called "happy couple"

[keen thorn]

This is how it feels ngl

[fiery trench]

welp, I tried ddark against Marmu
I’ve left with 1 lifeblood mask and 3 hp
dont ask

[oblique wagon]

the achievement is called happy couple for a reason

[worn hamlet]

maybe

[foggy sable]

DDark is good against marmu

[agile zephyr]

They're brothers.

[brisk steppe]

crine

[oblique wagon]

dawg

[fiery trench]

ow

[worn hamlet]

the copium is wild

why're u dead set on seeing sheo as heterosexual ._.

[oblique wagon]

THEY'RE GAY
SHEO AND NAILSMITH ARE A GAY COUPLE
THEY'RE GAY

[worn hamlet]

and why do u care so much abt his sexuality

[agile zephyr]

I'm gonna go see a couple real quick.

[worn hamlet]

he's called by he/him pronouns so many times

even if he's trans it'd still be a gay couple

because that's how sexuality and gender work

also why are we so interested in the gender sheo likes anyway

seems a bit strange ._.

[brisk steppe]

tmasc sheo...

[oblique wagon]

lemm uses he/him for nailsmith and mato calls sheo his brother

[fiery trench]

both use he/him pronouns and the achievement is called happy couple
cant really get less implicit without just saying it

[keen thorn]

This is how you should use dive https://youtu.be/oAhx0cVf1yk?si=vbJrTk1nG6dlgfum

[worn hamlet]

bro idk it's not like I could tell if someone is trans or not

m

[brisk steppe]

oh i liked the headcanon nothing to do with that

[worn hamlet]

fair lol

would be pretty funny

or maybe not idk

all ik is that mangoes are a tasty fruit

[keen thorn]

mango S tier fruit

It traumatized me to see mangos at 1 euro a piece in Spain

[worn hamlet]

what.

[fiery trench]

alr, thx for the help
will do next run
-# hopefully there isnt one but being realistic there most definitely will be one

[worn hamlet]

no actually I haven't

but I've been curious abt it

[keen thorn]

what what

[worn hamlet]

I just have no idea how to prepare it nor where to get it

[worn hamlet]

what what what

[keen thorn]

I saw a pack of 5 mangos costing 5 euro in Spain and it traumatized me

[worn hamlet]

ye I've heard lol

I can deal with that

[keen thorn]

not as bad as avocados tho (5 euro for 2 )

[foggy sable]

no

[worn hamlet]

[foggy sable]

no marmu

[worn hamlet]

that's horrible

[fiery trench]

Fuck Galien
fuck Galien
fuck Galien

[keen thorn]

yes marmu

[worn hamlet]

atp get an avacado tree

[foggy sable]

no marmu

[keen thorn]

btw grey

LK pb

[foggy sable]

gg on the pb

[worn hamlet]

hm interesting

good to know

[foggy sable]

but also still no marmu

[keen thorn]

wait wth is durian doing there

[foggy sable]

also genio I got another 1 hit p5ab to cg2 where it died yesterday

[keen thorn]

I've never had it

[keen thorn]

1 hit R5AB?!
Didn't you have a pb2????

[worn hamlet]

idk

what is it doing there

[fiery trench]

yknow whats interesting
the most devoted of the nailmasters is the only one who’s nail art cannot be parried

[foggy sable]

to clarify this is not me grinding p5ab

[keen thorn]

outside of durian this is accurate

[foggy sable]

not 1 hit total

1 hit until cg2

[keen thorn]

ah I got scared lol

[worn hamlet]

what's cg2?

[keen thorn]

enraged guardian

[fiery trench]

anyways I died to Sheo again yippee

[keen thorn]

well lol, typical

[foggy sable]

I still only have pb3

one of which was to cg2

[fiery trench]

round 5 letsa go

[foggy sable]

then everything went wrong and it was 11 total hits so

[fiery trench]

still better then knock off vengefly king

[foggy sable]

but anyway from oro mato to cg2 hitless is pretty good imo

so I'm happy with it

[keen thorn]

Buh this is so boring

[brisk steppe]

it's slightly dirty

[worn hamlet]

yeah that does look terribly boring

[fiery trench]

boring yes
hard no

[keen thorn]

exactly

[worn hamlet]

yeah that's the worst part abt math that you already know

if can't get harder once you understand it, only more tedious

[fiery trench]

true

[worn hamlet]

well unless you put said math into a different context

been learning abt the concept of that with derivatives lately

[fiery trench]

also I hope Team Cherry doesnt patch out the melee hitbox Oro Parry
its nice lore building without words

[graceful storm]

fun fact: you can hear "MOTH!" in the radiance theme

[fiery trench]

I just took it as primal screaming

[west bison]

Radiance is a really fire moth

[west bison]

Wait why do I hear it

[worn hamlet]

lol yup

I think it's possible they made the primal screaming super ambiguous so ppl could hear what they wanted

and moth just happened to be one of the possible words

[fiery trench]

as long as its a reasonable assumption and your told about it, ur mind will hear it
its why you can hear gibberish, be told whats its supposed to be, and then hear it once u listen to it again

[graceful storm]

"MOTH!" dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun "MOOOO-MOTH!"

[zealous skiff]

mango and dragonfruit placements are based

[fiery trench]

I still find it stupid that u can input a dash mid parry stun

[graceful storm]

i find it stupid abyss shriek can suck hive knight into u💀

whenever i abyss shriek next to him i die

so i switched to dive spam

[fiery trench]

it does the same with Hornet

[graceful storm]

why

[keen thorn]

that happens when you're facing left

[graceful storm]

i was facing right

[keen thorn]

facing right will knockback away, facing left will knockback into you

[fiery trench]

should I record getting a ddark parry on Oro?

[west bison]

I wanna believe it says moth

[graceful storm]

i was facing hive knight

[keen thorn]

AHHH English dyslexia

[fiery trench]

as long as you want it to it will

[keen thorn]

facing LEFT will knockback away, facing RIGHT will knockback into you

[graceful storm]

thats dumb

[keen thorn]

ik

[fiery trench]

fuck it I’m getting the Oro ddark parry

[graceful storm]

its not even mentioned ingame

[keen thorn]

no

[graceful storm]

maybe its collision bug

[foggy sable]

we love directional knockback here
