How did r5ab go for you
fiery trench
I forgot my dumbfuck set up a chatgpt account
gotta find put how to delete that
ancient dock
what are your pbs
ancient dock
thats nutty
i was good but never that good unfortunately
always placed console and i love to blame collector
fiery trench
stuff
stuff I wont spoil for u
ancient dock
console collector isnt fun
foggy sable
Jumping from r5 to r5ab is bold
ancient dock
you got this
foggy sable
Oh I'm not jumping I did charmless
ancient dock
i dont think i'll ever go back to it, im fine with casual gaming till retirement
ewwww
charmless always sounded boring
foggy sable
i dont think i'll ever go back to it, im fine with casual gaming till retirement
Seems nice
ancient dock
i had kind of like a reverse jump
fiery trench
howd u die?
high phoenix
I think charmless r5 is unironically less fun 🤔 but obviously easier
foggy sable
Charmless is basically p5ab but much easier
foggy sable
I liked it more because collector was easy in it
fiery trench
i wanna play my rando
just down patch
limber flower
ahh so no'
ancient dock
beat it within 10 hours
fiery trench
ahh so no'
idk havent been keeping up with lumafly
foggy sable
That seems relatable
limber flower
whats r5?
ancient dock
but i had like 700 hours worth of that r5 amalgamation practice already
high phoenix
r5 speedrun is pretty enjoyable
hasty helm
i wish to one day be good enough to think about attempting r5
foggy sable
I only had about 50 hours in r5 when I got it
limber flower
i can onlly do p5
fiery trench
yall crazy\
they are
I’m here waiting for someone slightly more sane
hasty helm
I only had about 50 hours in r5 when I got it
crazy
foggy sable
So I didn't mess around first clear
ancient dock
yeah 50 seems to be the average
hasty helm
50 sounds so short wtf
ancient dock
or at least it was back then
limber flower
i cant imagine grey prince zote radiant
keen thorn
yeah 50 seems to be the average
No it's certainly not. Most people I've asked are 100-150
limber flower
god help
keen thorn
Including me
high phoenix
I don't think 50 was average back then
ancient dock
i meant to say 50-100
fiery trench
i cant imagine grey prince zote radiant
not that bad honestly
just takes a bit
autumn ice
yeah i feel like 100-150 sounds more accurate
hasty helm
do people take less time now just cuz there are better strats and guides available
ancient dock
i was always a slow one
high phoenix
Also hours in isn't the greatest metric
autumn ice
uhh i feel like mine perfectly falls into the 100-150 range
foggy sable
But I've tried running r5 with bad charms so that has been fun since
autumn ice
it's been forever so maybe im wrong but like
ancient dock
hop on tetris then
autumn ice
i think that much sounds right
autumn ice
hop on tetris then
i am on right now
limber flower
iven done radience radiant bvut p5 to mad
ancient dock
it has been forever
autumn ice
i'm lowkey kinda washed tho
limber flower
sorry r5
ancient dock
i am on right now
lol keep at it
empty lynx
i cant imagine grey prince zote radiant
Amazing boss
ancient dock
i bet, have you been playing as of late?
high phoenix
Yeah, it's been a minute so I don't remember how long it took me, but probs in the 100-150ish
autumn ice
tetris or hk
ancient dock
tetros
autumn ice
bc tetris yes hk no
foggy sable
So many good players in rn
ancient dock
i remember u were cracked
autumn ice

That is very true for anyrad, but idk about R5
fiery trench
Amazing boss
finally, someone with some sanity outside of Bicken

autumn ice

ancient dock
fair enough, im not content either
keen thorn

Depends
fiery trench
Dw most pros love gpz
not what I meant
ancient dock
definitely better strat
foggy sable
I did no contact with other r5 players
autumn ice
fair enough, im not content either
also do i know you? name doesnt ring a bell
ancient dock
people progressively got better and better and got better results quicker
ancient dock
also do i know you? name doesnt ring a bell
:p
autumn ice
people progressively got better and better and got better results quicker
availability of resources is a pretty big deal too yeah
ancient dock
🤫
high phoenix
That is very true for anyrad, but idk about R5
There's definitely much better resources for r5 just via vods, the first 10-15 clears had a different hill to climb imo
empty lynx
i should work on p2 and p3 too very soon
fiery trench
i should work on p2 and p3 too very soon
ab?
empty lynx
i need godseeker
autumn ice

yeah from my rs4 experience this is a pretty big deal i think
fiery trench
i need godseeker
oh completion
u got that
autumn ice
my build for some of the segments is kinda awful in retrospect
ancient dock
it's so craazy to see you here tho unnamed, have u been active here or is this a unicorn moment
foggy sable
Also fun thing because I joined the HK community after r5 I had some odd opinions on the challenges difficulty which everyone hates
ancient dock
like you were gone for most 2023-2025
high phoenix
Also just knowing other people have done something helps those that follow in terms of motivation
empty lynx
Also fun thing because I joined the HK community after r5 I had some odd opinion...
watching shows while fighting R5AB NKG isn't much better btw
fiery trench
nice
what now?
autumn ice
and i still feel like i dont know nearly enough about the bosses (despite the fact that i should reasonably be one of the most knowledgeable players on consistent hitless bosses)
high phoenix
Also fun thing because I joined the HK community after r5 I had some odd opinion...
What opinions?
foggy sable
watching shows while fighting R5AB NKG isn't much better btw
Shuch the run was dead
autumn ice
like you were gone for most 2023-2025
i'm semi active here again since a few months after silksong
keen thorn
Also fun thing because I joined the HK community after r5 I had some odd opinion...
R5AB < R3 = P5AB = AnyRad 1.0 = F5 = R5 < R4 = RSoulSanctum < P4AB
autumn ice
like nov dec ish
foggy sable
What opinions?
It is comparable to p5ab
ancient dock
i'm semi active here again since a few months after silksong
cool
empty lynx
ok go grab shopkeeper's key from crystal peaks and buy elegant key from sly :)
autumn ice
since i started grinding silksong r5 equivalent basically
foggy sable
And also f5
autumn ice
it's way better than r5 im ngl
empty lynx
how do you not have dream nail tf
ancient dock
i saw levi and bong working on hitless silksong since like, 2 weeks after release
high phoenix
It is comparable to p5ab
Yeah, idk I skipped AB
empty lynx
(doesn't help anyway still)
ancient dock
i zzzzzz
high phoenix
AB didn't seem fun to me
ancient dock
well good thing this isnt overworld <:peaceline:991635625625268355>
they made a pantheon mod'
rigid escarp
hi
autumn ice
ya
foggy sable
Yeah, idk I skipped AB
I did them at about the same time
ancient dock
yeah i wouldnt
fiery trench
how do you not have dream nail tf
I mean u can get dnail before dash
ancient dock
i'll leave that for my gen and new gens
foggy sable
As practice and a break from r5
empty lynx
Mf forget that Don't you have like wings and isma's tear 😭
ancient dock
i havent done steel soul on either game still
high phoenix
My break from r5 was watching Pizzabox run r5 😅
empty lynx
I mean u can get dnail before dash
true but like this is their first playthrough so
foggy sable
My break from r5 was watching Pizzabox run r5 😅
I never watched anyone elses r5
autumn ice
yeah silksong steel soul hundo is still out for me
empty lynx
I never watched anyone elses r5
I watched monstah's
autumn ice
I never watched anyone elses r5
really, no strat stealing?
hasty helm
I never watched anyone elses r5
damn
autumn ice
that's like broken as hell
empty lynx
No u
ancient dock
it sounds boring idk i never liked steel soul anyway
foggy sable
I wanted to figure out my own strats
ancient dock
i got to thk back then but i was cocky and went in nail0 no experience
high phoenix
Pizza and I just watched each other for moral support, that was more op than any shared strats
ancient dock
felt like a waste of time
autumn ice
i always just took steel soul as a routing challenge
hasty helm
i've watched like 5 full hours of p5ab content and at least 5 hours of anyrad content by now
empty lynx
it sounds boring idk i never liked steel soul anyway
Wait i just noticed your pfp
10/10
autumn ice
try to frontload as much risk as possible and become op asap
then you realistically cannot die
ancient dock
steel soul is try not to fall asleep challenge
autumn ice
it's decently fun in that aspect
ancient dock
but because ive played silksong casually, steel soul will be fun
foggy sable
Pizza and I just watched each other for moral support, that was more op than any...
I didn't know anyone doing r5
ancient dock
i basically am a normal player in that game
autumn ice
but yeah the actual gameplay becomes more of a try not to be stupid challenge once you get to a certain skill level
ancient dock
i died a lot to everything
foggy sable
And I wasn't in contact with any HK players
ancient dock
but used the gwomb charm equivalent since the moment i got it, to keep the tradition
it was super fun
foggy sable
And also never practiced for some reason
hasty helm
steel soul is kinda easy? just getting fragile heart as soon as you can
empty lynx
I still wonder how many staggers does R0 gpz die in
foggy sable
At all
empty lynx
steel soul is kinda easy? just getting fragile heart as soon as you can
And strength

I love practice 🥰
empty lynx
The only practice i had is Gpz to absrad without Failed champion
high phoenix
I enjoyed crafting new strats in practice more than doing runs
autumn ice
I never practiced
i actually have no idea how you function
placid bolt
I just seem to be on a HOT STREAK TONIGHT, because I just beat ascended pure vessel!
foggy sable
I just did like an hour of runs a day until I got it
autumn ice
yeah labbing is so sick
foggy sable
i actually have no idea how you function
I don't know
high phoenix
yeah labbing is so sick
I enjoyed labbing strats more than any of the speedruns I did too
vagrant hearth
hello pythun
ancient dock
i rember that
high phoenix
Hullo python
foggy sable
Practice is just so... Boring
vale condor
hi spoonsei, hi luke
ancient dock
hi pythong
autumn ice
as opposed to the riveting gameplay that is p1 reset hell
foggy sable
The best practice is doing a challenge run
ancient dock
watching people speedrun p1 was always miserable
autumn ice
oh i mean p1 segment of r5 with that
ancient dock
oh
foggy sable
Doing a more difficult challenge run I should say
high phoenix
The best practice is doing a challenge run
Well that's objectively.. subjective 🤔
ancient dock
i had some sick vfk cycle
foggy sable
Well that's objectively.. subjective 🤔
Well yes but
ancient dock
i lost all footage though

It sounds like it worked well for you though

I started running it just because then I grew to enjoy it
But it took like 4 months to do hitless to went on way too long
high phoenix
I started running it just because then I grew to enjoy it
Didn't like it at first?

Oh? Most of my posted stuff is pretty old 😅 what did you watch back then?
ancient dock
the real deal was the p5 hitless academy
foggy sable
I watched some in like 2023 when I was doing radHoG and things like that
autumn ice
shoutouts to lumos's r5 guide thing from back then
ancient dock
i'd lie if i said i actually incorporated the stuff i learned there
but the important things yes
high phoenix
I wanted to do more with that server, but life got in the way
autumn ice

ancient dock
Lumos so awesomeballs
autumn ice
i want to do something like that for silksong at some point tbh
foggy sable
There are surprisingly few HK challenge run guides
placid bolt
Ascended Sly
autumn ice
i think i want to learn more about the bosses for now though
i have the run already but idk
ancient dock
mmm
autumn ice
still feel like a lot of the strats are pretty vibe based
high phoenix
silksong r5 does seem fun
ancient dock
thats how p4 section onward feels on r5
placid bolt
I’m overcharming for radiant GPZ because radiant battles have literally no HP to lose
autumn ice
silksong r5 does seem fun
it is, highly recommend
ancient dock
forget all strats just wing it
foggy sable
I never count hits
ancient dock
i was always too nervous
foggy sable
Too much to track
autumn ice
i just really was counting on phase 2 skip
where you do want to know when he's gonna split
ancient dock
maybe thats why
high phoenix
I just mapped out every location so I could get enough hits on every fade and had a route to kill first spin
autumn ice
dont think thats the reason bc i also fluked from him
high phoenix
Which was reaaally fun to do
ancient dock
yoooo
autumn ice
that does sound sick
ancient dock
i honestly wouldnt handle having a pv or rad distance
learn somethine new everyday
or maybe it was hits..
high phoenix
Honestly mapping out uumuu was probably some of the most fun I had- completely unnecessary, but realllly fun to see all the jelly gymnastics you could do
ancient dock
its been 4 years man
autumn ice
the worst part is getting a late distance then never getting good runs again
my second r5 i got 2 runs to absrad within 10h then took like 40+ to get back to her
high phoenix
the worst part is getting a late distance then never getting good runs again
That's why multiple metrics for success is op
autumn ice
miserable
ancient dock
:c
autumn ice
That's why multiple metrics for success is op <:prayge:919139638998876190>
yeah for sure

my second r5 i got 2 runs to absrad within 10h then took like 40+ to get back to...
That sounds awful
placid bolt
NO WAY I MANAGED TO BEAT RADIANT GPZ ON MY SECOND TRY
autumn ice
i wish i had a stat tracker mod like you do in celeste
that shit's an actual cheat code for mental
foggy sable
I now just aim for.consistency in runs
autumn ice
some number is always gonna be going up so you can look at that and be happy

If anyone is wondering, Voidheart, UnStrength, QuickSlash, QuickFocus, ShamanStone.

Any time you say to yourself something is consistent it ceases to be

Basically you don't want to be backed into a corner so if you are wait until he does something then escape

Fury is a fun concept but should only apply to nail arts
hasty helm
and possibly get you killed? if you keep trying to use nail arts when you normally wouldn't to capitalize on the extra damage
torn geyser
Fury is a fun concept but should only apply to nail arts
wouldn't really make it worth it to go to 1 health for most
foggy sable
It would make nail arts good way more in full equipment godhome
hasty helm
or if strength and fury applied to nail arts...
foggy sable
But also it would make nail art + spells a viable alternative
torn geyser
or if strength and fury applied to nail arts...
a bit of a shame those both don't apply
foggy sable
Because as fun as it is it is just a worse build
foggy sable
a bit of a shame those both don't apply

It’s okay, most people don’t run optimal anyway

then my dumbass will just steady body qslash in the boss's face

Y'all be careful there's this new scam going on disguised as a copypasta. Don't click on random buttons!!

Yeah, they need the help

The main fun thing about charmless is that spells and nail arts are way more central
high phoenix
Yeah, that’s kinda why I like n0ws so much, in terms of spells at least
foggy sable
Rather than qs and strength bullying everything

Keeps the high mechanical ceiling but rebalances a bit

Yeah, that’s kinda why I like n0ws so much, in terms of spells at least
I haven't delved into other that just p5 tbh
With charms that is
high phoenix
I haven't delved into other that just p5 tbh
n0ws was referring to p5, what do you mean exactly?
foggy sable
n0ws was referring to p5, what do you mean exactly?
Like overcharmed or hitless or something
high phoenix
Ohh
I think my favorite challenges are n0ws p5 and r5 speedrun
But I’m biased towards flukes obviously
high phoenix
Creating those strats for p5 speedrun was probably the most fun I had in HK
But highkey r5 is pretty fun to run with them too
foggy sable
All my r5 rn is just practice for harder runs
So learning something that doesn't work for them feels pointless
But I do know flukes galien
high phoenix
I just build skills that seem fun to me, and only do challenges that seem fun as well
foggy sable
I just want to get r5ab and run overworld tbh
high phoenix
What in overworld?
high phoenix
Idk if I’ve watched a hitless TE but that sounds like it could be fun
foggy sable
It should be
high phoenix
I never did overworld stuff (challenges or speedrunning) because I hate menuing with a passion
foggy sable
Makes sense
I pretty much only do godhome hitless things
And it has been almost a year of so branching out sounds fun
It will be a year in 6 days funnily enough
high phoenix
Yeah, I didn’t realize how much I’d enjoy moving from hitless stuff to speedruns
Branching out can be fun
foggy sable
The problem is r5ab feels close
high phoenix
Why is that a problem?
foggy sable
I don't want to stop running it because coming back to it would be a pain
high phoenix
Well, you can touch it every couple days to stay fresh if you want to try other stuff, since derusting doesn’t usually take very long
But I get wanting to finish before moving on
empty lynx
that's what i kinda wanna do too tbh
Iam not sure if i should do both SK and HK challenges at the same time
Since the easier SK challenges might affect my R0 grind
foggy sable
And also r5ab is the last godhome hitless I have any intention of doing
Well the last p5 hitless run anyway
So being done with it would be interesting
high phoenix
Usually the most fun thing is the best option in my experience- having a couple projects at once makes it a little less taxing on the mental if have a couple rough days
