[thorn pilot]

2nd or 3rd

[near geyser]

Hmmmmm, something seems… false about that statement.

[thorn pilot]

IM BEING HONEST

I was trying to get absrad beat on ascended I gave up went to sly killed him went to NKG lost switched build and either lost or just won I genuinely don't know how many times I died but it was under 3

I swear on my life

[near geyser]

Proof.

[heavy barn]

why are you so skeptical lol

[near geyser]

I don’t know.

[vernal knot]

NKG is easy as hell

I'm surprised there is doubt to be had

[near geyser]

L ragebait.

[vernal knot]

Do you find NKG hard?

[wary hound]

nkg start hard get easy

[near geyser]

He’s easy once you get the timing and the rhythm down.

[vernal knot]

They're like the easiest Radiant besides maybe PV and other obvious one's

[vernal knot]

Exactly, It's easy after practice

They did it Radiant

It's safe to say they had that down, thus, it's pretty obvious they are not lying

[near geyser]

I honestly don’t know why I’m even skeptical.

[vernal knot]

My first Radiant NKG took me like 10 tries

I'm not surprised someoen got it down in their second

[thorn pilot]

Dm

[near geyser]

Dude NKG as a whole, from first fighting him, to attuned, ascended, and radiant, took me 11 tries.

[near geyser]

I believe you now.

[thorn pilot]

Oh

[near geyser]

Congrats my dude.

[thorn pilot]

Ok :)

Ty :D

[near geyser]

Major Congratulations.

Sorry if I came off as rude or something.

[thorn pilot]

now the only bosses I have left are hell on earth

[near geyser]

And who is that?

[thorn pilot]

your good it is kinda strange

[thorn pilot]

obbles markoth absrad

[runic summit]

Who wants to see my inventory in hollow knight

[heavy barn]

i think a good chunk of people get it first

[thorn pilot]

sure

[wary hound]

sure y

[heavy barn]

so yeah it's totally believable

[near geyser]

Oblobbles, fuck those oversized parade floats.

[vernal knot]

Oblobbles was so bad

[thorn pilot]

yeah I hate those stupid things

[near geyser]

I despise them.

[vernal knot]

I kept panicking after the first one went down

[thorn pilot]

its easy after one is down just stressful

[wary hound]

wrong reply mb

[runic summit]

This my inventory

[thorn pilot]

nice

[near geyser]

Traitor lord is more free in godhome than the original arena.
-# without cloth I mean, if you have cloth he’s free as hell

[wary hound]

interesting

[thorn pilot]

rip cloth

[near geyser]

After I murked the first one and the second one sped up I think my heart rate spiked to 250

[vernal knot]

Okay

[near geyser]

She was the realest.

[thorn pilot]

I'm saving ar for last but now that everyone else is gone idk what to do now

[near geyser]

Markoth.

Get it over with.

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-markoth-asgore-truck-gif-6077876392477869567

[thorn pilot]

markoth has like 15% skill because of platforming but obbles is just 100% rng

obbles shouldn't even be in godhome

[near geyser]

Honestly out of the three, absrad seems the most tolerable, which is kinda funny.

[thorn pilot]

yeah lol

[keen thorn]

Idk what the heck I'm doing but bosses ranked by radiant low gear scaling

[near geyser]

No, keep them bitches in the coliseum.

[thorn pilot]

but obviously climactic finish

[near geyser]

Climactic finish beating Markoth.

[thorn pilot]

no banish them to the purified ducts

[keen thorn]

@heavy barn is this 3.14/π?

[near geyser]

It’s where they’re from, they’ll be right at home.

[honest shale]

why are we ranking bosses on math

[near geyser]

I have no idea.

[thorn pilot]

what

what boss has the best visual design

not fight like character design

[near geyser]

Hmmm…

[keen thorn]

I genuinely don't know what half of my criteria were
It was mostly by vibes

[thorn pilot]

im goin with sheo or thk

[thorn pilot]

fair lol

[near geyser]

For me it’s a tie between Broken vessel, The Hollow Knight, Pure Vessel, and Crystal Guardian. (I find Crystal guardian quite charming)

Simplistic and I enjoy it.

[thorn pilot]

NKG

nkgs design is amazing!

[frozen hull]

[thorn pilot]

[tired tapir]

ANNA :D

[wary hound]

[tired tapir]

[keen thorn]

A star for Lumi too

[wary hound]

stars are nice

[thorn pilot]

may I please get image roll

[tired tapir]

yes

[keen thorn]

Image role? You have that

[near geyser]

For the shittiness of the trek to get to him, the crystal guardian should’ve been a worthy challenge, not a pushover like he is, and enraged guardian is even sillier.

[tired tapir]

you have it in your role

[heavy barn]

?

[thorn pilot]

I tried to send a gif earlier and found out I had a mod

oh

I honestly didn't know

[near geyser]

[heavy barn]

What's limearithmic?

[wary hound]

im just sending that so they know u have enough messages

[near geyser]

Crystal guardian is one of my favorite bosses, not the fight, that shit sucks ass, but just the fact that he’s in one of the most unfun areas and you get to take a rest after fighting him makes me laugh.

[keen thorn]

n*log(n)

[loud kiln]

I haven't gotten my perms yet either (like I got them a bit ago but then it was taken away again)

[near geyser]

Literally you are fighting him over a bench.

[subtle arch]

There’s a primal aspid behind you

[near geyser]

If I do anything stupid I’m cooked.

[near geyser]

Shot him down.

[rapid wolf]

[graceful storm]

What the hell

[near geyser]

Like three times before in the same week.

[graceful storm]

Tf did u do 😭

[rapid wolf]

gah

[near geyser]

Just stupid shit man.

[subtle arch]

This dude gifted me geometry dash because he lost a bet where I couldn’t get steel soul 112% and beat the radiance

[graceful storm]

-# like what

[rapid wolf]

in two days gng

[thorn pilot]

Alone at the edge of a universe humming a tune

[rapid wolf]

you unemployed shit

[subtle arch]

The original bet was 100% but I decided to do 112%

[near geyser]

Like getting goaded into talking about something nsfw by someone and being muted because they reported ME when they started the convo.

[rapid wolf]

how many showers did you take

[graceful storm]

Wow tf

[near geyser]

Yep…

[subtle arch]

Shower? What’s a shower

[graceful storm]

Btw should I give up soul tyrant radiant?

[near geyser]

Uhhhhh… hmmmm

[subtle arch]

IF YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING, SUCCEED

[thorn pilot]

those are the type of people who prefer the warm sides of blankets and pillows

[near geyser]

I mean, you can always take a break and come back tomorrow.

[proud haven]

Succeeding can only lead to success
Much less interesting than failure

[subtle arch]

ALWAYS WIN YOUR BATTLES

[near geyser]

Also I’ve gotten a warning for “roleplaying” when I have NOT done such a thing.

[proud haven]

That's ridiculous

[proper thunder]

I got to godhome

[near geyser]

It was probably only the name I was using at the time.

[thorn pilot]

what are you struggling with?

[proper thunder]

so I decided to try to fight radiant false knight

[near geyser]

Soul Tyrant on radiant.

[proud haven]

Did you call yourself Grimm or something

[subtle arch]

BELIEVE IN YOUR STRENGTH

[near geyser]

Yeah.

[thorn pilot]

I know

[proper thunder]

and then I literally got insta killed

[near geyser]

Good Ol Nightmare King Grimm.

[thorn pilot]

HOLY CRAP ITS FIREY BFDI

[subtle arch]

BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS

[near geyser]

And then I got a warning for roleplaying.

[thorn pilot]

I loved that show

[proper thunder]

me too

[near geyser]

The first one I got was kind of understandable: Shitposting in HK-general.

[proud haven]

Dang that's so horrible I got banned for I think the full technical thing was roleplaying and dragging it on in modmail instead of shutting up but I got unbanned since it was not like malicious I think they knew and I apologized I think fr (i could've gotten even just all of this mostly wrong but it should be close)

[subtle arch]

UP IS UP, DOWN IS DOWN, PLASMIFIED, REMEMBER THESE PRECEPTS, AND EMERGE VICTORIOUS AGAINST SOUL TYRANT

[thorn pilot]

what

[proud haven]

I disagreed on the roleplaying but I was definitely like being dramatic at least which can be seen as rp

[near geyser]

That’s crazy.

[thorn pilot]

you good dude?

[proud haven]

So same same I got banned fr my fault

[near geyser]

Being a drama queen now counts as roleplay? Damn, what a wonderful world we live in.

[thorn pilot]

tbh the only reason I have a clean slate is because I'm barely here lol

[proud haven]

Bro just for you I might beat the GAME OVERCHARMED IN STEEL SOUL MODE

[timber hatch]

Goys I just did speedrun 1 x steel soul im proud of me

[near geyser]

Lmao.

[subtle arch]

I AM WINNING, YOU ARE WINNING, WE ARE FOLLOWING THE ZOTE PRECEPTS

[thorn pilot]

nice!

[proud haven]

Fuck yeah what was the end time and was it 112% or thk victory

[near geyser]

Connor’s already got my respect but honestly I’d be impressed if he did what I do on a daily bases.

[thorn pilot]

I AM READY SIR WHERE DO WE GO FOR WAR TO SPREAD THE NAME OF ZOTE

[proud haven]

I def think I could do it I am so great

[proper thunder]

what

[near geyser]

Also I REALLY like this crystal guardian pfp I have. Fits my vibe.

[thorn pilot]

what time did you get?

[proud haven]

Based it's baller

[near geyser]

The Belfly on the left staring into your soul is making me laugh.

[thorn pilot]

yeah its funny asf

[near geyser]

We should have a crystal guardian emote here.

[timber hatch]

It was like 8 hours, and it was 60%, but im in time to do the 100% in 20 hours and the steel heart at the same time

[near geyser]

And a Markoth emote.

[thorn pilot]

nice!

[thorn pilot]

no

[proud haven]

W badass

[near geyser]

And a whole other box of emotes, one for each boss.

[subtle arch]

Markoth getting banished to below the arena in ascended

[thorn pilot]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-markoth-asgore-truck-gif-6077876392477869567

[near geyser]

Ok maybe not a Markoth emote.

[thorn pilot]

markoth sucks

[timber hatch]

I love this fandom

[subtle arch]

[near geyser]

As do I.

[thorn pilot]

[subtle arch]

How about more zote emotes

[near geyser]

How about no Zote emotes?

[timber hatch]

We should have this one

[near geyser]

The damn Zote Truck.

[timber hatch]

ZOTE BOAT

[subtle arch]

[thorn pilot]

idk what I'm doing

[timber hatch]

[subtle arch]

I’m going back to the 1500s to get a painter to draw zote so zote culturally becomes loved

[thorn pilot]

[near geyser]

Lmao.

[thorn pilot]

he looks drunk

[near geyser]

Do not get DaVinci to draw Zote, I do not need my great great great grandfather drawing grey prince Zote on a Saturday.

[subtle arch]

He’s high off that spider pack

[thorn pilot]

high off that precept pack

[near geyser]

He’s high on the wrong precepts.

[graceful storm]

Which percept again?

[subtle arch]

Zote was the reason why herrah fell asleep, she was scared of zote coming to slay her

[graceful storm]

his balls

His balls are killing me

[thorn pilot]

[near geyser]

Precept 69: Smoke until you are able to sit back down upon your chair.

[subtle arch]

Precept 19, If you try, Succeed

[graceful storm]

Grimm smokes

[near geyser]

I want a full list of the precepts typed out before me.

[near geyser]

Yeah he does, he canonically does.

[near geyser]

Oh well not like that.

[thorn pilot]

precept 70:smoke until you cant sit on your chair

[thorn pilot]

hhhmmmm

[proper thunder]

precept 71: fight boundless infinity

Precept 68: zote is boundless infinity

@fresh isle watch out

[royal helm]

Alr I’ve done that so I should be fine

[graceful storm]

[dull lion]

34%

How do you even do that

[graceful storm]

by doing it

[dull lion]

At 3 hours I am still at Fungal Wastes bro

[graceful storm]

i actually made it to watcher knights at 2 hours but went out to get ddive and ddark

[wary hound]

why ddark

[graceful storm]

then i got lurien then went to thk

[graceful storm]

its good

[wary hound]

ik ddive should have been enough

[dull lion]

What about herrah and Monomon

[graceful storm]

ddark is better

[graceful storm]

i already had them

i also didnt need isma's tear either

[dull lion]

I am gonna search how is it even possible to beat the game in 3 hours bro 💔💔

[graceful storm]

i missed out on royal waterways

[unborn crag]

@young lake hi friend

[dull lion]

Did you do "bench warp" everytime you got an ability or item

[graceful storm]

u can do that?!

[keen thorn]

Start the game, get vengeful spirit, get dash, get claw, get desolate dive, get lantern, get ddark, get crystal dash, get dream nail, kill the 3 dreamers
Only 2 easy skips required

[dull lion]

Exiting to menu and coming back to return to bench

[graceful storm]

...

i didnt even know thats a thing-

[keen thorn]

That's like
HK mechanics 101

[dull lion]

I think I wasted too much time killing the dream bosses and getting the nail arts, I should skip all the "abilities" next run

[graceful storm]

skip narts

definitely

[keen thorn]

You just really need descending dark
It is so op it makes any other combat upgrade unnecessary

[graceful storm]

for my next 5 hour run im gonna not skip isma's tear

and im also getting shade cloak and sharp shadow too

[dull lion]

Which skips though

[keen thorn]

That is a horribly bad idea
Shade cloak is a long long long time and with ddark it's not even that useful

[graceful storm]

shade cloak just has u make ur way to hornet 2, beat her, get the brand, go speed thru the abyss, and climb back out

[keen thorn]

Crossroads acid. Using cdash to enter fog canyon from crossroads.
Spire background object pogo. As the name suggest you pogo off a background object to skip wings and enter spire, that one's completely free

[graceful storm]

u can also get abyss shriek too

[graceful storm]

i did the first skip

i got wings in my 3 hour run

[keen thorn]

You want to do Aspid pogo?
If you don't do aspid pogo you're adding wings now too which also takes even more time

[graceful storm]

aspid pogo?

[keen thorn]

Use primal aspids to pogo into hornet 2 skipping wings

[graceful storm]

also wings only take like 2 minutes to get

[trail bramble]

@ashen swallow

[keen thorn]

It's not that hard, but as all skips involving flying enemies it sucks

[trail bramble]

Yo

[keen thorn]

You have to go all the way down to basin, do the entire mawlurk run and kill bv

[graceful storm]

BV can be annihilated under a minute with ddark

[keen thorn]

BV is not the issue tho

[graceful storm]

wanna know my route?

[keen thorn]

Alr what is it

[dull lion]

O

[graceful storm]

fireball>dash(with fireball skip to get to hornet much faster)>fragile charms>claw+MOP>deepnest to reach tram pass>pale ore from basin>reach CoT from basin>grind geo in right side of CoT>lemm+nailsmith>lantern>cdash(skip crystal guardian)>dnail>BV+wings+simple key(just cuz)>Herrah(cdash+wings to skip Beast's Den)>Monomon(without isma's tear)>ddive>ddark>lurien>THK

my 3 hour route

i also did die a few times...

and had to repair my fragile charms...

[tulip narwhal]

So true

[tulip narwhal]

Hi anika

[carmine lava]

anika are you home yet

[brisk steppe]

wait why cant pv be tetrational

feels like it fits more unless im thinking different conscering the tiers

[keen thorn]

Do you know what tetration is?

[brisk steppe]

mhm

cause like. thinking that part wise exponential undersells the way the fight compounds demands rather than merely increasing them so it feels fitting

[keen thorn]

4^^4=4^4^4^4 which is like, completely incomputable

[carmine lava]

what does tetration have to do with anything

[keen thorn]

Look at the tier list and see :blep:

[carmine lava]

what is cuadratic and limearithmic

i think you need to give examples for like every single word you just said

[brisk steppe]

wait nevermind now i get how this tier is structured

[carmine lava]

like i know what a square root is obviously but like

what does it even mean in that context

[keen thorn]

Anyways, PV low gear is not really that demanding of a fight, most aspects don't really scale specifically with gear
Collector literally every single bit of the fight gets 100x by just a slight gear difference pretty much

[keen thorn]

They're types of growth, so scaling

Limearithmic is n*log(n)

Cuadratic is n²

[worn hamlet]

huh I just learned what tetration is and how it can form some wild functions

that's fun

[carmine lava]

quadratic?

[worn hamlet]

why n and not x

[young lake]

hi floggy

[brisk steppe]

ohh i see i fuess if you shift from abstract escalation metaphors to gear sensitivity pv immediately drops out of the exploding growth category

[keen thorn]

Yes

[keen thorn]

Uhh
Programing

[worn hamlet]

just smth I've noticed, a lot of higher math ppl tend to use n while ppl in the earlier math classes tend to do x

[carmine lava]

does square root just mean that they get difficult slower than the rate of which your gear decreases

[brisk steppe]

and the collector is very fitting yes i was just wonderiiing

[tulip narwhal]

Hi srdna

[worn hamlet]

valid lol

I hate programming tbh

I should prolly get good at it at some point just bc it's so useful

[plush pecan]

back to doing P

pls make sure to never speak here again, id hate to have to ban you :')

[tulip narwhal]

[plush pecan]

hive knight went down

[worn hamlet]

the mod abuse by a non-mod is wild

[tulip narwhal]

Damn that was cold

[young lake]

you dont know that ?

[worn hamlet]

yes I do?

[young lake]

i could be an eloki alt

[worn hamlet]

alts are illegal :D

[young lake]

like anyone could seriously be a mod alt and you would NEVER know

[worn hamlet]

/hj

[keen thorn]

Square root is faster than logarithmic but slower than linear (ignore low base exponent, that's just for free fights that become insane only when you remove specifically dash and dive for TL)
So kinda like, fights that just get tiring, but not really more difficult

[young lake]

its ok to be a fool

[worn hamlet]

it's technically against the rules iirc

we just don't really enforce it lol

[plush pecan]

collector down

[keen thorn]

Although as the message states, I don't know what I was doing half the time and the criteria were all over the place

Mostly just went by vibes

[plush pecan]

god tamer died aswell

[worn hamlet]

m

[proper thunder]

like on health

[plush pecan]

I'm like the opposite of you bro

[plush pecan]

[royal helm]

[graceful storm]

i take more damage to tiktik than brooding mawlek

[royal helm]

genuinely how

[flat nest]

Idk can’t time my nail swings right or smth

[proper thunder]

I despise mawlek

[plush pecan]

hive knight went down

and elder huu was soon to follow

[royal helm]

brooding mawlek killed so many of my good p1 runs

[proper thunder]

I take more damage to false knight than massive

[graceful storm]

i take more damage to air than tiktik

[proper thunder]

WAIT YOU HAVE TO FIGHT HIM???

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[flat nest]

Also why’s the p5 version of mawlek so much easier than p1 version?

[proper thunder]

what

[graceful storm]

no raised platform

[plush pecan]

bois, I been doing P3 long enough to get VC perms

[royal helm]

dw, he gets so much easier after fighting a couple times

[plush pecan]

why noone in vc?

[flat nest]

That. P1 shoulda been p5 and swapped, cause like p5 mawlek is SO much easier

[royal helm]

ykw ill stream my radiance fight

[graceful storm]

ascended arenas are better than attuned

change my mind

[flat nest]

Depends on the boss

Wait better or easier

[distant bane]

[royal helm]

[ancient ravine]

explanation : no in german is "nein" which has the same pronounciation as "nine"

[nocturne saffron]

Bruh how would we know that

[royal helm]

wow, hilarious response to a genuine question

[distant bane]

yea lol

[ancient ravine]

🙂

[potent dust]

Is silksong harder than hollow knight?

[nocturne saffron]

Ofc

[ancient ravine]

yes

[royal helm]

starts off harder, late game hk is harder than late game sk tho

[distant bane]

yea by a lil

[nocturne saffron]

It is?

[ancient ravine]

yep , there many many bosses that u can second try em

but like two or three will take a lot of time

[nocturne saffron]

First try if youre careful

[ancient ravine]

yep

[red jungle]

help im struggling on nkg

[ancient ravine]

use nail arts

[distant bane]

go watch some video

[nocturne saffron]

Bruh still?
Weren't you struggling at normal Grimm last time?

[potent dust]

There are some useful charms against him

[nocturne saffron]

Ok, what charms do you have and what attacks are you struggling with?

[red jungle]

wtf do you mean bruh still

[distant bane]

if you want to watch a guide i recomend boss blitz

[red jungle]

i already watched a guide

[potent dust]

Ngl he is actually quite weak if u used the right charms

[red jungle]

its only helping me very slightly

[nocturne saffron]

Tell us what charms you are using

[potent dust]

💀

[nocturne saffron]

And what attacks you're struggling with

[red jungle]

im literally using unb strength quickslash shaman stone grimchild

[potent dust]

What are the charms?

[red jungle]

the annoying jumpy ones

[potent dust]

Bad

[nocturne saffron]

The uppercut?

[red jungle]

wdym bad

[nocturne saffron]

It's good??

[red jungle]

those are the best charms in the game

and the charms the tutorial reccomended

[tulip narwhal]

Yes!!

[red jungle]

the uppercut and the fire dash

[storm flax]

@quartz cave see

[red jungle]

and like all of them

[distant bane]

i recomend take out shaman and change with unb heart and something else

[ancient ravine]

u lwk need mop or long nail

[red jungle]

basically im dying in the first 30s

[nocturne saffron]

Dude, unbreakable strength is good

[red jungle]

i tried weaversong + grubsong instead of shaman and it kinda helped

[potent dust]

Its good only if only u are good and dont get hit by him

[red jungle]

i got past the first phase

[nocturne saffron]

Hmm, for the uppercut, dash in the opposite direction or to him if he's too close

[distant bane]

i didnt say take out strength

[red jungle]

yeah ima use mark of pride

[potent dust]

These are probably the best counter charms vs nkg

[distant bane]

if you dont use unb health your cooked

[red jungle]

im already 20 attempts in and i havent even got to the first stagger

[nocturne saffron]

This is...ass?

[distant bane]

wtf is this

[potent dust]

Use these and u will thank me later @red jungle

[red jungle]

ok

[potent dust]

Its not

[red jungle]

but when do i heal

[nocturne saffron]

After the flame pillers

[potent dust]

They work perfectly against nkg

[distant bane]

in the flames of uppercut

[red jungle]

then ill just get hit by the next attack

[wanton niche]

Holy wussy

[distant bane]

he always spawns for pillars

[potent dust]

u can heal 4 masks when he does flame pillers

[red jungle]

ok

[nocturne saffron]

No?

[potent dust]

I did

[nocturne saffron]

Huh,

[potent dust]

I mean u can heal 4 masks the sec he starts flame pillers

[worthy peak]

itll be cause of unn i think.

[distant bane]

what you using deep and quick focus?

[potent dust]

.

[nocturne saffron]

Oh that charm was unn?
I didn't notice it

[potent dust]

I used this

[ancient ravine]

ew

[worthy peak]

The problem is that you can't deal damage while doing it. But it is a legitamte strategy.

you also can't heal on other attacks

[nocturne saffron]

So, basically all heal and dodge and no damage?

[potent dust]

Ik but gotta do it to beat that mf

[red jungle]

but how do i do damage

no charm build is gonna help me at this rate

[worthy peak]

well maybe firebats I don't know if unn can slip under those

[red jungle]

im still dying in less than 30s

[nocturne saffron]

Btw, are the attack just too fast for you?

[potent dust]

Nail , sharp shadow these do damage

Especially sharp shadow

[nocturne saffron]

Yeah, one hits worth

[red jungle]

yes

[distant bane]

bro i only actually used sharp shadow at traitor

[potent dust]

Ah damn u need 20 more tries to get used to him

[red jungle]

😭

[potent dust]

Its op

[red jungle]

ok i am getting slightly better at dodging the attacks

[distant bane]

nah

[nocturne saffron]

Hmm, when he appears in front of you, just dash in the opposite direction

[red jungle]

then hes just gonna dash on me

[worthy peak]

its less damaage than pogoing with strength. Which is perfectly reasonable to do and can actually get you anoter hit as he uppercuts. Also less than nail arts which are also perfectly reasonable to hit.

[distant bane]

i still recomend boss blitz its the best guide

[nocturne saffron]

When he appears in front of you, floating, just jump, and if it's the one where he goes down, pogo on him and dash away

[potent dust]

Less dmg ye but dont forget it dodge many hits

[distant bane]

i have such a hard time pogoing this attack for some reason

[worthy peak]

I didn't I just don't think its significantly more consistent than pogoing

[nocturne saffron]

Then just double jump and dash

[worthy peak]

or even just dashing away and hitting behind you

[potent dust]

Ye I'm not that good

[distant bane]

that is preety much what i am doing because of bros hitbox

[nocturne saffron]

...you beat anyrad with no baldur?

[worthy peak]

yes :)

[nocturne saffron]

Holy shit

[red jungle]

I made it to the first stagger

[worthy peak]

next im doing it overcharmed as well :)

[red jungle]

lets fucking go

[worthy peak]

great. :) Progress!!!

[red jungle]

ok im sticking to my current build

[potent dust]

The charms worked good ?

[nocturne saffron]

..he's gonna do 4 masks of damage

[potent dust]

[red jungle]

i didnt use your build

[potent dust]

Ah u gonna suffer

[worthy peak]

Ive gotten two finals so far :)

[red jungle]

mark of pride is working well

[nocturne saffron]

Damn

[worthy peak]

(Its the best charm)

[nocturne saffron]

Can you upload the vid so I can watch it?

[distant bane]

nkg doesnt have phases but remember that everytime he does pufferfise attack 25% of his health is gone

[nocturne saffron]

Yep

[red jungle]

just 75% left to go

[plush pecan]

grubsong doesnt do anything in radiant fights smh

[red jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/death-gif-20834117

[nocturne saffron]

It doesnt

[plush pecan]

I know

[red jungle]

at this rate im beating it in 100 attempts

[distant bane]

lol

[potent dust]

[plush pecan]

its a bit annoying when it takes up a slot during radiant fights tho

[red jungle]

normal grim took me around 20 attempts

[worthy peak]

you mean this one? https://youtu.be/zUCM8W1CMvM or do you mean a final in overchrmed baldurless

[nocturne saffron]

Both ig

[potent dust]

Remember he got 4 staggers or 5

[nocturne saffron]

Or non if you kill him fast enough lol

[wind garnet]

Bruh

[nocturne saffron]

(speedrunners)

[potent dust]

[worthy peak]

what?

[potent dust]

Those ain't human

[nocturne saffron]

Ok I'm going to try to beat p3 now

[plush pecan]

im preparing for that by doing radiant uumuu

[distant bane]

why can everyone post files but me?

[nocturne saffron]

Talk more

[worthy peak]

its about how many messges youve sent

[worthy peak]

you are at 162/300

[nocturne saffron]

Uumu is not that hard tho

[distant bane]

damm

[plush pecan]

[nocturne saffron]

No spam btw

[plush pecan]

ik, im just that bad

[nocturne saffron]

Bruh

[distant bane]

i cant spam anyway

[nocturne saffron]

I thought I was worse

[sacred bough]

cannot find the way to isma's tear for the life of me man

[plush pecan]

I am usually low from gpz and then suck at uumu so take like 2 masks of damage

and then get finished off by hornet

[nocturne saffron]

Search it on yt

[sacred bough]

can't be bothered

[distant bane]

lool

lol

[nocturne saffron]

What pantheon is that?

[distant bane]

does reacting to messages count as me typing messages?

probabbly not

[plush pecan]

3

[nocturne saffron]

I don't fight gpz tho

[edgy bloom]

Finally beat attuned absrad

[plush pecan]

you didnt fight him in the base game so you have it easy

[distant bane]

you havent saved zote

[nocturne saffron]

Damn, congrats

[edgy bloom]

Thx

[plush pecan]

nice

[nocturne saffron]

Where are all the places you can save him

[distant bane]

now try ascended and when you do it give me some tips

[distant bane]

greenpath and deepnest

[nocturne saffron]

I thought I did tho?

[plush pecan]

I keep getting cooked by the damn jellyfish

[nocturne saffron]

Wait, green path?

[distant bane]

have you saved the bug from fungal wastes

?

[nocturne saffron]

Which one

[distant bane]

breeta

[nocturne saffron]

No

Is that why?

[storm flax]

@gray rivet

[plush pecan]

This monster didnt save breta

[distant bane]

you got to to unlock GPZ

[nocturne saffron]

Ok

Is gpz in p5 even if I don't save him?

[distant bane]

shes is located where you nfound dash master

[distant bane]

i think not

[nocturne saffron]

Can I still save her in infected crossroads?

[distant bane]

pobably yea

[nocturne saffron]

Tbh, I forgot where dash master was

[plush pecan]

You remember mantis lords runback? Go left of the bench

[distant bane]

at the bottom of fungal wastes in that part where its not mantis village

[potent dust]

I ignored zote in deepnest , is he going to show up as gpz?

[nocturne saffron]

Ah, ok thanks

[hidden spire]

He fucking dies

[distant bane]

if he is still alive

[hidden spire]

you monster..

[nocturne saffron]

No, he goes to hell

[potent dust]

Good

[plush pecan]

Not up and left tho just left

[potent dust]

I hate that guy

[plush pecan]

And go past the statues

[hidden spire]

Oh wait actually just leave zote

[distant bane]

me to

[hidden spire]

he gon be a pain in the butt on the pantheons

[potent dust]

[plush pecan]

Non-believer

[distant bane]

i am a completionist and i hate gettingb golden GPZ statue

[sacred bough]

how do you think the knight actually swims in the acid guys

[potent dust]

At least we getting an achievement for letting zote die

[distant bane]

you need to have ismas tear

[red jungle]

would it be funny if i beat nkg with glowing womb

[distant bane]

lol

[distant bane]

u use glowing womb?

[sacred bough]

i mean how does it happen with isma's tear yknow

[potent dust]

If u dodge every single hit ye why not

[hidden spire]

😭😭

[red jungle]

i used it to beat normal grim

[vital mist]

👍

[red jungle]

glowing womb is so underrated man

[distant bane]

ok

[hidden spire]

I'm a completionst I uh platinumed MiO in 4-5 days but I never bothered to platinum hollow knight

[red jungle]

everyone just pisses on it because it drains soul

[sacred bough]

when you pick up isma's tear it says acid will be repelled. so the knight is just staying afloat in a big bubble or something? who knwos ma

[distant bane]

maybe isma is crying on top of him to make the acid swimable i dont know

[mint vector]

Invencible?

[plush pecan]

It emits enough force to counteract gravity just enough and pushes away the acid

[potent dust]

Ye

[plush pecan]

You can trust me Ive seen it

[sacred bough]

hmm....

[distant bane]

btw what does the lever after dung defender really do?

[sacred bough]

removes acid from an area in the royal waterways to make it accessible

[distant bane]

ok

[potent dust]

I thought its connected to Uumuu area

[sacred bough]

what

[potent dust]

Where u find Monomon the Teacher

Ig I'm wrong

[red jungle]

why is grims hitbox so big

[lapis pecan]

Whos tiso? Doing my first p5 attempt and they appeard

[sacred bough]

in a roundabout way you're kinda right. teacher's archives requires isma's tear or shade cloak i think, and hitting the lever after dung defender makes the path to isma's tear accessible. good job 👍

[sacred bough]

keep watching

[lapis pecan]

Alright

[plush pecan]

Chat, what would you call beating bosses on radiant without overcharming and with grubsong?

[lapis pecan]

Nvm lmao
I paused the moment they appeard so yeah

[sacred bough]

hardest boss in the game tbh

[potent dust]

[sacred bough]

anyone else kinda hate kingdom's edge

[potent dust]

To many primal Aspid

[plush pecan]

Its the hardest area by default
