hi alp

[rare aurora]

use that too

[keen thorn]

The good old times

[rare aurora]

you have 11 nothces

[drifting sluice]

the humble unbreakable strength

[timber inlet]

do you believe that for that split second this was more active chat ?

[zinc dawn]

i should really be finishing my skong playthrough instead of replaying this game ngl

[agile pewter]

the humble heavy blow

[empty lynx]

You can live without strength
Soul catcher better anyway

[drifting sluice]

so goated

[keen thorn]

The humble leonhk

[rare aurora]

are you just going to continue to list meta charms?

by that logic, flukes suck as well

mop sucks

[keen thorn]

Oh Alp, did I show you the R5 stats?

[drifting sluice]

dude it is single player game do what ever you want that is just my thought

[rare aurora]

nope

[keen thorn]

Let me get them!

[rare aurora]

👀

[brave kite]

i feel very pro after using a random spell to evade desth while fighting markoth only to die 1 second later

[autumn ice]

the "do whatever you want" argument doesnt really do much if you lead by saying that qf is mid (which simply is not true)

[quartz cave]

@rare aurora

[drifting sluice]

equiping unbreakable strength ; shamon stone; quick slash make me feel like dragon

[brave kite]

qf=quick fix

[rare aurora]

@quartz cave

[quartz cave]

hi hru

[rare aurora]

woke up like half an hour ago so pretty mid hbu

[quartz cave]

????

[drifting sluice]

just like quick focus

[keen thorn]

Charms

[rare aurora]

i need to get my sleep schedule in order bro uni starts next week

[keen thorn]

Unnamed!!

[solid phoenix]

stupid mod muted me now I have to restart again

[brave kite]

shaman stone more usage than strength?

[foggy sable]

I know it defeats the whole point of the list

[quartz cave]

its ok im gonna have breakfast soon so we aint too out of sync 💔

[brave kite]

how is that even physically possible

[quartz cave]

grrr i gotta PREPARE it tho

[agile pewter]

ym

[foggy sable]

but some part of me wants to make a new youtube and post an r5 just to add some fun things to it

[drifting sluice]

you can get it like in the begining of the game

[rare aurora]

flukenest only having 3% is interesting actually, i thought prominent players said that it trivializes the challenge

[north tundra]

Spamming does that

[drifting sluice]

and speedrun

[foggy sable]

no thorns of agony on the list as well I see

[keen thorn]

It trivializes if you know how to use it already
Mostly if you do speedruns but ATP you're already super skilled anyways

It has quite a big learning curve and is super aggressive

[rare aurora]

yeah it looks fun for sure

[autumn ice]

heya

[keen thorn]

Also most builds that run flukenest swap it around mid run

[agile pewter]

fun fact: it's te ano's first vid on his yt

a fkin r5

[keen thorn]

Because it's your alt

[foggy sable]

that makes sense

[agile pewter]

this is true

[foggy sable]

if you do challenge runs and make a youtube just to share them

[autumn ice]

one more week (and 3 hours) until i will leave forever (spire 2 drops)

[rare aurora]

i mean yeah, but i think if i were to play with it, i’d take it with the downsides

[keen thorn]

@autumn ice I got R5 stats!

[autumn ice]

holy

[analog apex]

why muted

[wind garnet]

Unnamed is a qf defender

[static charm]

Soul Master

[autumn ice]

ya it's broken idk what to tell you

also strength being that much more popular than qs seems weird

[rare aurora]

qf is crazy

[agile pewter]

qf stalwart -> p5 free

[brave kite]

bc quickslash is secretly a spell charm

[keen thorn]

Also the builds!
These ones exclude swaps (listed as swap) because idk how to work with them yet

[wind garnet]

Qf stalwart steady qs

[wanton niche]

Hello everybody my name is markiplier and today I'm playing hollow knight with Freddy fazbear

[north tundra]

They spammed

[wind garnet]

Idk I just think healing builds are kinda lame but hey if it gets you through p5 who am I to judge

Ig

[analog apex]

oh

[keen thorn]

53% are the meta strength qs shaman steady mop

Which makes sense

[wind garnet]

Genio should clear r5 with qf and ym

[agile pewter]

no ít actually hilarious

[autumn ice]

running the best build

[foggy sable]

do toa as wellll

just get a lot of charms which aren't included already

the stats need more charms

[last blade]

pure vessel was ONE hit in p5

and then i die

[autumn ice]

i honestly think that healing is among the coolest parts of hk combat

[wind garnet]

[foggy sable]

unnamed did you join after I went over my plan to argue toa is good

[last blade]

p5 is so goated

[keen thorn]

Healing is part of what made P5AB so fun the first time and hooked me into the game

[foggy sable]

people slander it too much

it is merely a bad charm

[keen thorn]

Just don't get hit

[wind garnet]

What was toa again

[foggy sable]

thorns

[wind garnet]

Or thorns

[foggy sable]

of agony

[autumn ice]

and i think that qf gets people of the skill level of like p5 level (ish) to actually learn how to heal properly, kinda

[keen thorn]

Thorns is not bad, just don't get hit

[foggy sable]

exactlyy

[red jungle]

I fucking hate marmu

i hope marmu dies painfully

[autumn ice]

i didnt hear that plan but i will simply not engage in this

[foggy sable]

simple plan

do r5 thorns only charm and then use that to argue toa is good

and worthwhile

[autumn ice]

i did see that you did that

[lapis pond]

Ah yes
Because marmu definitely isn't dead already

[foggy sable]

now I can proceed to step 2 of the plan

[autumn ice]

the plan does involve doing r5 so it sounds pretty awful

[red jungle]

shes got the worst physics ever

[autumn ice]

but i guess once that part is done it's solid

[lapis pond]

"The plan is simple, batman"

[foggy sable]

well I already did it so now is the fun part

to annoy people with it

[lapis pond]

Bros got beef with the ghost of a beach ball 💔🙏

[rare aurora]

?

[foggy sable]

why the question mark? the plan is simple enough

[red jungle]

i have beef with every boss i cant beat radiant in 10 attempts or less

[molten yoke]

Good plan

[red jungle]

ehem

[foggy sable]

thank you

[lapis pond]

So all of them alr

[red jungle]

uumuu

[rare aurora]

how do you deal damage with toa while taking damage consistently enough to kill multiple things with it?

[red jungle]

not all of them

some of them are great

[foggy sable]

I didn't say toa as the only damage

I said toa as the only charm

[rare aurora]

ah ok makes sense then

[red jungle]

what does toa stand for

[rare aurora]

i was very confused for a second lol

[foggy sable]

did it trigger at all? no but that is inconsequential

[foggy sable]

thorns of agony

[keen thorn]

Would you say thorns only charm R5 is easier than R5AB?

[foggy sable]

hmm is r5 charmless easier than r5ab

[keen thorn]

Is that a yes?

[foggy sable]

yes

[lapis pond]

Must've been the wind

[foggy sable]

I can't do r5ab

or haven't done it in any case

[red jungle]

who designed marmu

[keen thorn]

ThornsOnlyCharmR5 < R5AB < R3 = P5AB = F5 = R5 < R4 = RSoulSanctum < P4AB

[rare aurora]

i can! looks like i’m better than you

[lapis pond]

Team cherry

[foggy sable]

oh no

[lapis pond]

Hope that helps

[foggy sable]

not this

[keen thorn]

:3

[foggy sable]

I can never escape it

[rare aurora]

what the fuck

[red jungle]

who was it in team cherry

was it ari gibson

or was it william pellen

[lapis pond]

The guy over there

[keen thorn]

Now with that equation you can see that R5 with thorns is easier than without

[foggy sable]

I keep getting taken out of context

[keen thorn]

Thus thorns op

[lapis pond]

Probably

[foggy sable]

exactly

[zinc dawn]

think im good i lowkey cannot play anything rn
#ilovefasting

[keen thorn]

[foggy sable]

sharp shadow only charm might be fun some time tbh

[zinc dawn]

ill hop back on later today

[rare aurora]

i can’t believe that these are gf’s completely accurate opinions

[keen thorn]

And do Dashless 🔥

[foggy sable]

I don't wanna

[keen thorn]

Fine I'll do it myself then

[foggy sable]

I can do r5 charmless in about 3 hours if I get averagely lucky atm

[keen thorn]

Charmless Dashless R5

[foggy sable]

which means I can do a whole lot of stupid charm challenges if I want

[lapis pond]

You hollow knight players really don't like having fun huh?

[rare aurora]

claw only r5

[keen thorn]

You've gotten really good

[foggy sable]

eh

[red jungle]

whats r5 again

[molten yoke]

Wait what exactly is r5?

[zinc dawn]

r5? thorns?
oh wait nvm

[lapis pond]

Masochists of gaming right here

[keen thorn]

I had plans of doing wings only R5 but turns out it's a 13% chance 💀

[foggy sable]

I just am consistent-ish at challenges I've already done

[keen thorn]

Wait wtf am I saying

It's wingless

[foggy sable]

no idea

why 13%?

[keen thorn]

I had plans of wingless R5

[strong skiff]

Wtf is wings only r5

[zinc iris]

Hi Grey, Genio

[red jungle]

what is r5

[foggy sable]

hi herb

[strong skiff]

Oh ok😭

[keen thorn]

Turns out you need two damage tanks not one for climb

[keen thorn]

Hi herb!!! Hi roma

[strong skiff]

Bro really gonna use the secret wings iframes trick

For absrad

[keen thorn]

I mean it is actually possible

[strong skiff]

Amd tl

[strong skiff]

Void pogo?

[keen thorn]

With wings you can bait out the beam walls out of the screen and go on top of traitor lord

[strong skiff]

Bruh

[keen thorn]

Can't pogo void on plats but essentially

[strong skiff]

Thats fucked up

[spice crater]

never knew trobbio was a pale being

[molten yoke]

Can I ask, what is r5?

[foggy sable]

baldurs?

[keen thorn]

It's hard af tho and I don't think AbsRad has been done

[keen thorn]

You need to tank mid air

[foggy sable]

damageless pantheon 5

[foggy sable]

oh

[strong skiff]

Tl has been?

[keen thorn]

I think so

[strong skiff]

Damn

[keen thorn]

I remember Anika tried AbsRad but didn't finish because it was bad
Or something like that

[foggy sable]

you can't build up cfm with it?

[molten yoke]

Ahhh. I haven’t even beat p5 yet, I died to nkg on my first attempt

[red jungle]

me stuck on normal pantheon 5

[keen thorn]

Yes, and I calculated the odds and the best you can do is 13%

[red jungle]

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

[foggy sable]

hmmm

if you wanted to go for it I think a mod that garantees carefree if it is above 0% chance on absrad would be fair game

[thin violet]

Hey Genio, do you have experience doing modded bosses :?

[foggy sable]

anyway I'm going to sleep gn

[rare aurora]

gn

[molten yoke]

Goodnightt!! Sleep well!!🫶

[keen thorn]

Some

[keen thorn]

13% is considering you're using the mod to start with 90.9%

[thin violet]

What about modded radiance bosses?

cause im tryna find a particular one

[keen thorn]

Some, which one do you want to do

[thin violet]

I want something that is somewhat equal in difficulty to Atmoic Radiance

[molten yoke]

WDYM MODDED? How hard are they gonna be then?

[thin violet]

but it cant be atomic radiance

[keen thorn]

Ew
I think Hard mode from All or hallownest enhanced is about that difficulty

[keen thorn]

You better don't because it sucks ass

[round spoke]

WHY DO MARKOTH'S SPEARS SPAWN OFF OF FUCKING SCREEN???

[thin violet]

I'm tryna do p7

[keen thorn]

Oh @strong skiff

[thin violet]

but i need an equivalent for it since its physically impossible for me to do

[keen thorn]

Well rip to you

Atomic rad is in the spreadsheet

[naive dew]

@keen thorn

[keen thorn]

But Roma should have it he made P7

[molten yoke]

HOW HARD IS THAT MEANT TO BE?

[thin violet]

nono, i physically cant do the climb without having a seizure

[keen thorn]

Ohhhh

[thin violet]

thats why im tryna find a substitute

[keen thorn]

Hmmmm

Well you can't use ahe

[thin violet]

The closest thing i could think of was Nightmare Equilibrium

or... whatever that is

[keen thorn]

Nightmare ultimatum is free

[thin violet]

that!

[keen thorn]

Immortal Light is probably the best pick then

[thin violet]

but in theory it was the closest step-up i could find

[keen thorn]

It's harder but probably the closest

[thin violet]

eheh... i have history with that one. too difficult

i do radiant modded bosses and immortal light took me the most time of any boss to do attuned

[keen thorn]

Yes it is hard

[thin violet]

If i dealt with that at the end of p7 i'd be hardstuck for like a year

[keen thorn]

But honestly easier than ascended atomic

I tried that a lot and just gave up because it sucks

[thin violet]

really?

[keen thorn]

But it's still hard

[thin violet]

i thought atomic was a step down

[keen thorn]

Yes it is

[thin violet]

thats why i was thinking about nightmare ult

[keen thorn]

Atomic < IL
But ascended atomic sucks

[molten yoke]

Can I ask, as a reference, how easy is absrad compared to Immortal Light?

[thin violet]

well i cant do atomic so this is kind of the best grasp at its difficulty i got

[keen thorn]

Nightmare ult is an easier version or regular ult, from which atomic is a harder version of

[thin violet]

the difference between an olympic torch and a candle

[molten yoke]

…oh

For once I’m happy I play on an Xbox so I can’t mod the game

[thin violet]

I thought nightmare ult was an upgrade of reg ult. damn

my concept of boss difficulty sucks lmao

[molten yoke]

Apparently mine does as well. I find NKG harder than pv

[rare aurora]

i am pretty sure night ult is a buffed version

[thin violet]

NKG and PV are basically at a standstill for 2nd and 3rd hardest vanilla bosses, it makes sense

[static charm]

thought i was in sk discussion

[thin violet]

its fine dw

oh well, i'll figure out my dilemma in time

thanks Genio

[molten yoke]

But like, I find NKG significantly harder than pv

[finite ember]

howlow knit is hard

[keen thorn]

Iirc full spike floor is faster but orbs are slower in general.
But orbs is a bigger nerf than spike floor is a buff

[rare aurora]

huh

i’ll take a look at the code soon ig

can you get me the dll?

[keen thorn]

This is a rough order given by some of the members of the anyrad community

[keen thorn]

I'll go find it

[thin violet]

oml thank you for this

[keen thorn]

Dumb probably

[rare aurora]

i love dumb rad

[keen thorn]

Dumb is an easy 2.0

Kinda

It's fun but very specific skill

[rare aurora]

..dumb predates 2.0 by quite a while

[thin violet]

Possibly, but the only modded radiance fight ive ever done was imm light

[keen thorn]

Ye ik

[keen thorn]

No wonder you struggled...

What other mods have you radianted?

[thin violet]

I built up skill with my other bosses

[rare aurora]

still have no idea what immortal light is btw

[magic storm]

Probably your mother

[thin violet]

I can send you my youtube channel so you can see for yourself, i record rad videos and im about to post one later today

[rare aurora]

god i am a fucking boomer for absrad stuff now wtf

[deep knot]

rea

[thin violet]

@Inithia

[rare aurora]

advertising is crazy lmao

[molten yoke]

Oooh can I see?

[thin violet]

ehh it gets the point across fastest

[naive dew]

Hiiii alp

[thin violet]

plus i got a memory disorder

[thin violet]

look up Inithia on youtube or @Inithia

[molten yoke]

Ok yh that makes sense then

[magic storm]

I love self promo https://youtube.com/@yisrael5180?si=zkQ6qq276Z5v5pVR

[keen thorn]

Can't find it

[thin violet]

i feel a little ashamed but it is x10 easier

[naive dew]

Ok yisrael

[molten yoke]

Oooh you play Minecraft as well?

[thin violet]

mhm

Its not as popular but i find it fun

[molten yoke]

As long as you find it fun, that’s all that matters!!🫶

[thin violet]

but all my hollow knight stuff is in a playlist so you can filter out the rest

[molten yoke]

Yesyes

Will check that out later thx

🫶

[magic storm]

@fresh isle can you pin this

[thin violet]

this feels odd, i dont like advertising lol

[molten yoke]

Fair enough

[keen thorn]

Yeah ofc

[keen thorn]

https://youtu.be/2PXeSKexXHU?si=VfQ2-zqHBuZXjs2c

[thin violet]

My @ is @Inithia on youtube Genio

[keen thorn]

Just send the link

[thin violet]

i got a playlist for hollow knight

sure

[thin violet]

https://www.youtube.com/@Inithia

[magic storm]

That’d be against the rules

[keen thorn]

@fresh isle no, pin this

[thin violet]

sorry for the advertising also

[magic storm]

@fading idol self promo

[thin violet]

i was asked and i shall give

[keen thorn]

So AIKG, PP, Z2 and N&V are your hardest

[vernal knot]

Its a Sylveon pfp

[keen thorn]

No way you did fucking great champion 💀

[thin violet]

i woudl also throw in there my imm light attempt and soul sovereign

[pastel obsidian]

how do i not get hit when i see spikes are gonna appear under me and absrad is doing an attack

[thin violet]

but the vid im uploading later today is Rad Nailgod Sly :>

[keen thorn]

Immlight is probably harder than all of those radiants lol

[keen thorn]

Ddark

[thin violet]

YEA

[pastel obsidian]

what if no soul

[thin violet]

I noticed when it took me three weeks!

[magic storm]

Do collector

[keen thorn]

Bindings? Otherwise you should have soul stored up at all times

[keen thorn]

It was a big step up

[pastel obsidian]

no bindings

[quartz cave]

i miss her,

[thin violet]

I didnt know what i was getting myself into but i dont regret it. I also go into detail about my experience in the description but i know nobody reads that lol

[keen thorn]

If you want you could still climb up the AbsRad ladder

[naive dew]

@quartz cave @quartz cave @quartz cave @quartz cave @quartz cave

[thin violet]

Forgotten light interested me, but i basically refuse to do anything too stupid

[keen thorn]

Ultimatum, Forgotten Light, Enhanced easy, Atomic up to climb, Enhanced Hard mode

[keen thorn]

And dumb for the pantheon

There's also quasar but

[thin violet]

no

lmao

[thin violet]

But thanks this means a lot

[keen thorn]

If you want other hard but good bosses there's Pale Shadow

[thin violet]

thats on my to-do list :p

[rare aurora]

hiiii

[thin violet]

The one im currently doing is quite the headache though

[keen thorn]

Which

[thin violet]

ummm... Ancient Aspid heh

[keen thorn]

Ew

[thin violet]

I've made it to the final phase 3 times

It's tough but im making it work :p

[keen thorn]

Well gl

[naive dew]

https://tenor.com/view/spoingus-pass-the-tuna-down-gif-21178537

[thin violet]

ty ty, best of luck to whatever you decide to do next

[rare aurora]

this doesn’t even look fun lmao

[keen thorn]

It's fun until climb

[thin violet]

climb is fun for me

[rare aurora]

everything before plats looks pretty easy, then plats look like rng, and climb is just stupid lmao

without the clock climb could be fun tho

[deep knot]

what does more damage

unbreakable strength or quickslash

[thorny grove]

honestly, i think quickslash

tho i use them both

[deep knot]

i mean in theory i did think quick slash is better

but there's probably alot of situations where u can't fully utilize the extra speed when a boss moves alot

[thorny grove]

if its ground boss, u can

more difficult with flying ones

[waxen ore]

I found a proxy website thank somehow runs hk for free

[static charm]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-mine-work-gif-13956205

[quartz cave]

@naive dew

[strong skiff]

Questionable

[keen thorn]

Ahe hard mode?

Oh immlight

Yeah we concluded dumb is probably the best pick

[strong skiff]

yes probably

maybe try installing lessflashinglights?

or whatever its called

[pastel obsidian]

tf do i do on second phase in absrad

[deep knot]

pray you get a good radiance teleport and be able to use quick slash and spam spells

[pastel obsidian]

so i try to do as much damage as i can at the beginning

?

[naive dew]

@quartz cave

[keen thorn]

@thin violet

[thin violet]

Hi?

whats up

[keen thorn]

Check the message that I replied to

[thin violet]

I dont think lessflashinglights counteracts a move that comes off the radiance

[keen thorn]

It could reduce the flashing of the beam

[wispy willow]

Genio

Melone

@quartz cave

[keen thorn]

@wispy willow

[steep sierra]

Meva meva yeahahaha - dung jim

[wispy willow]

GG Jimmy on oc 2.0

[thin violet]

Yeah sadly it doesn as it only effects the end screens of abs rad and reg rad. I do have a mod already installed to greatly reduce the flashing lights but it doesnt do everything

[quartz cave]

@wispy willow

[wispy willow]

Hop on

Hop off

Hop in

Hop out

[thin violet]

Cha cha real smooth

[wispy willow]

Ok bye I have work :(

[keen thorn]

No hair?
Hop bald

[cerulean copper]

Day 2 of attempting the Hornet fight

[wispy willow]

Better not take 22 hours to beat that shit

[storm bolt]

i see the reference

[cerulean copper]

It very well might

[mossy ravine]

1 or 2?

[cerulean copper]

2nd fight, where she locks tf in after phase 1

[mossy ravine]

Alright good luck.

[pastel obsidian]

is phase 3 of absrad hard

[cerulean copper]

completed 5th try, or 6th today, i lost count. About 15 attempts total

[pastel obsidian]

i died right as phase 3 started

[pastel obsidian]

nice

[storm bolt]

not too hard but can be tricky

mostly just pogo her and shriek when possible

[outer field]

DD may sometimes be too slow...

[pastel obsidian]

so like in that fluke boss

[pastel obsidian]

yea

[storm bolt]

but crank up to 11

[pastel obsidian]

can i get hit if im in radiance

or is it only attacks that deal dmg

[storm bolt]

only attacks

[pastel obsidian]

alr

i was locked in before but now im dying on phase 1

[deep knot]

if radiance had contact damage she'd be almost impossible i feel

[outer field]

Another avg death:

"He stepped on my toes"

[pastel obsidian]

fr

[unreal saffron]

Why does contact damage even exist

Doesnt make sense at all

[outer field]

only sometimes does*

[deep knot]

i don't think contact damage is bad mechanic wise

uh except for some cases

[keen thorn]

To punish uncareful positioning due to agression

[wide jolt]

I finally beat the Path of Pain!! I feel so accomplished

[keen thorn]

And to create areas of denial around the boss and make more fluid gameplay

[cerulean copper]

One thing i find amazing about this game is how the collosium fights feel like non-stop action, the immersion is there 100%

[rare shadow]

hello guys where i can train pure vessel? i didn't finis pantheon 4

[deep knot]

u need to reach Pure vessel in P4 first. and then u can find him in HoG

[wide jolt]

You'll have to reach the end of Pantheon 4... or open Godseeker mode

[rare shadow]

i reach him

[deep knot]

hall of gods is in an area below the 3 pantheons

[outer field]

finally...
Now just the 3 brothers and rad left

[deep knot]

he's in the 2nd floor just go right and you'll reach him

[rare shadow]

im in hall of gods he is not there

its locked

[deep knot]

he should be

he's next to sly

[deep knot]

you're gonna have a bad time with absrad

[rare shadow]

thx

[wheat oxide]

Hello, I have two questions: first, how many people have finished Phanteon 5 with no hits, and second, are there any rules for completing Phanteon 5 with no hits or not? (Sorry for the confusion, I'm using Google Translate.)

[summer bluff]

collector is such a fun boss

[wide jolt]

just take no damage i guess

[wide jolt]

he just annoys me personally

[rare shadow]

is this the same thing for nightamre king grimm?

[deep knot]

i think only 7 people have beaten pantheon 5 with no hits

[summer bluff]

I like his yelling lol

[heavy ledge]

isn’t it way more

[thin violet]

yes, yes there are

[deep knot]

if u fought him in the normal world in his grimm tent. i think u can fight him in hall of gods.

[heavy ledge]

Apparently more than 30 ppl have done r5ab

[deep knot]

BUT if u haven't. u can reach him in pantheon 5 i think

[summer bluff]

not as annoying as zote tho

[heavy ledge]

so there has to be way more regular r5 completions

[rare shadow]

i fight him in the tent

[wide jolt]

how dare you, take that back

[deep knot]

he should be right next to pure vessel

if u fought nightmare king grimm in the tent

[deep knot]

true

[rare shadow]

i have to use my dreal thing okayyy

[quartz cave]

1. a bit less than 300 ppl

2. has to be a continuous recording where you show u have no mods on + charms

[deep knot]

yea

[deep knot]

wait u cant use charms in radiant pantheon 5?

[earnest apex]

:3

[quartz cave]

you can

but its just like a thing ppl do for some reason

i guess its for documenting purposes?

[summer bluff]

Have you guys done charmless HoG to practice for bindings or na

[quartz cave]

thats a way to do it but u can always brute force it

[summer bluff]

wdym

[finite ember]

has anyone here tried hollow knight

[summer bluff]

what is that

[finite ember]

game about bugs

[summer bluff]

sounds familiar

[deep knot]

sounds like a stupid game

[finite ember]

its like animal crossing i think

[summer bluff]

[finite ember]

[summer bluff]

[molten yoke]

I’m a collector fan personally

[summer bluff]

I forget his backstory

Radiant collector tho I haven't done yet

amongst others

is it true p5 is all ascended platforms?

[molten yoke]

Oh radiant collector is stupid easy

[summer bluff]

[molten yoke]

Yh ascended arenas, but attuned health and damage

[summer bluff]

Ahh

[deep knot]

wowy i can't wait to get a new skill

i hope nothing bad happens

[summer bluff]

stupid question I just noticed there is this and then hk general

lmao

[deep knot]

hk general allows for off topic stuff and things

[summer bluff]

this too?

I mean I'm not complaining just confused

[thick elk]

Bye

[cerulean copper]

Yep

And now im currently getting jumped by the Watcher Knight gang

[wet thunder]

ohhh

good luck then

first playthrough is always the most memorable :)

what's your favorite area and boss so far?

[cerulean copper]

Best boss i've fought would have to be Soul Master. Nonstop action, similar to Mantis Lords, which is 2nd place

[outer field]

||I've hit Sheo a little bit weird, and when he was charging for the pink attack, he was gliding to the left on the floor.|| (spoiler marked against the user above)

[wet thunder]

oh yeah, i remember beating this boss for the first time. It was a Christmas morning, such a nice memories

[molten yoke]

Ik I wasn’t asked, but can I answer as well?

[wet thunder]

yeah, sure! I like hear other's people opinion

[molten yoke]

My favourite area is ancient basin, my fav boss is lost kin, but my fav radiant boss is failed champion

[quartz musk]

Hey guys can I ask you what is your favorite ost in the game

[wet thunder]

oh i like Lost Kin too! I like how it's Broken Vessel but more difficult and with more health, so you can enjoy fight more

[molten yoke]

Kingdom’s edge. Js kingdom’s edge. What’s yours?

[outer field]

Either Reflection or the White Lady

[quartz musk]

Oh yes I love that one. Mine is the queen's garden or the white palace

[molten yoke]

Those are good ones!🫶

[molten yoke]

Also I love your pfp!

[quartz musk]

Thank you !

[quartz musk]

Oooooh thanks you're so sweet !!!

[molten yoke]

Aww tyyy! I like being sweet❤️

Hot take: path of pain shouldn’t be a one time thing. Let me do it again

[wet thunder]

In Hollow Knight it's ||City of Tears and Resting grounds. As For bosses, Sisters of a Battle, Hive Knight and Nightmare King Grimm.||
For Silksong it's ||Scarsinger Karmelita, Seth (2nd Phase), Strive, Phantom and Awakening. As for locations, Cogwork Core, Whispering Vaults, Bilewater and Bone bottom.||

[molten yoke]

I see you only recently joined the server. Have you had a good time so far?

[quartz musk]

YES YES AND YES

[cerulean copper]

Alright, Watcher Knights is a vendetta fight now 😠

[wet thunder]

i forgot about Pain of Path. I took King's Soul and before realising i forgot about it

[outer field]

For Silksong... This one may be obvious... Last Dive

[molten yoke]

Crazy

[wet thunder]

oh yeah, that's one cool too!!

[wet thunder]

BEAT UP THESE SONICS!!!

[outer field]

Who else likes Mount Fay?
(not the zone itself)

[wet thunder]

Ost or location?

[wet thunder]

ohh... i wouldn't say i enjoy the ost. It's just suits the location that's it

[quartz musk]

Ahaha i'm struggling a bit right now but I'm on my way to get the amelioration of the desolate dive ( I think it's called the descending dark or smt but I don't play in english so I'm not sure )

[molten yoke]

Yh its descending dark

Also cool!

[wet thunder]

desolate dive -- white spell
descending dark - it's upgraded version

[quartz musk]

Okk thanks

[molten yoke]

If you ever need any help, feel free to ask me! I don’t mind if it’s ping or dm!🫶

[quartz musk]

Yess the ost is great and I find the place beautifull to

[quartz musk]

Thank you !!

[molten yoke]

Ofc🫶

[paper narwhal]

why does the city statue still have the old 3 dreamerds

[outer field]

maybe their bodies were misunderstood by the builders

[wet thunder]

how's things going with Watcher Knights?

[wet thunder]

yeah, i believe it is

[cerulean copper]

I gave up and decided its meal time, no more hungry knight 🥞

[wet thunder]

yeah, maybe you should rest for a bit

you know, i beated final boss of a true ending, by trying it a lots of time, then going to sleep, and then beating it from first attempt in the next morning

[vernal knot]

Monomon with Luriens build is so cursed

Im assuming Herrah is one of the 2 we dont see the face of, which is even worse

[wispy willow]

Taking a break is op tech

[wet thunder]

yeah

[fresh isle]

its true

[quartz cave]

elok.

[wispy willow]

I mostly agree with this, but I love soul sanctum and I like instead of hive knight and nkg -> white defender and troupe master grimm

[wet thunder]

hmm, that's cool too

[tender bobcat]

huh

[wet thunder]

troupe master grimm is cool, but i like how nkg more intense

[tender bobcat]

it was funny

[quartz musk]

I'm not a big fan of the || soul sanctum || ost but yes

[quartz musk]

I agree

[vernal knot]

Soul Sanctum is pretty good though

[quartz musk]

Yes but definitly not my fav

[wet thunder]

soul sanctum ost really sets the mood of area really good

[vernal knot]

What your fav

[twin mist]

Guys I wanna do any rad 1.0, any tips ? and isnt there a discord for anyrad ?

[vernal knot]

I dunno, never done anybad. Yes

[wet thunder]

also making me remember to go there for the first time

[quartz musk]

White Palace and Queen's garden and for boss I like Hornet and Nightmare King

[tender bobcat]

i am trying the 5 hours run

[twin mist]

where to find the dc ?

[peak otter]

How has no one mentioned greenpath

[quartz musk]

That's true

[tender bobcat]

for the achievement

[quartz musk]

Yess it's increadible too I really like it

[quartz musk]

Oh wow good luck !

[tender bobcat]

i am at 3 hours and 55 minutes and i have two dreamers

[twin mist]

Anyone got the anyrad discord ?

[wet thunder]

and also i just like how it sounds. Words, i mean. "Soul Sanctum". Sounds more mysterious, then Svyatilische Dush (russian version)

[wet thunder]

all server praying for you!!

[quartz musk]

Yes it's memorable

[tender bobcat]

thanks guys, just have to get the last one which is in deepnest

forgot her name

[wet thunder]

i beated the game for 2 hours 38 mins

[wet thunder]

Herrah The Beast

[tender bobcat]

thank you

[wet thunder]

Do you have Isma tear or Crystal Dash?

[tender bobcat]

[severe wigeon]

I’m scared to speed run

[wet thunder]

better go there through Queen's Garden

that's faster

[tender bobcat]

ok

thanks ill try that

[wet thunder]

yeah, i believe in you!!

[tender bobcat]

the nice thing is i know how to beat hk

had to kill him alot when i was trying to kill radiance

cause i kept on dying

[honest saddle]

Who's better? Cornifer or Shakra? Cornifer will always be my GOAT

[severe wigeon]

Both

[lost pasture]

the real goat is the stag

[tender bobcat]

lol

[severe wigeon]

He’s not wrong

[lost pasture]

stag is ALWAYS there for us

[tender bobcat]

yup

[severe wigeon]

Nah it’s the Wayward Compass

The best charm

[lost pasture]

its a 50/50

[tender bobcat]

ohhh yes

[lost pasture]

you know who is the REAL goat?

zoat

[tender bobcat]

nice thing is in the speedrun i am doing, i am not using my map alot

[severe wigeon]

Zote can die to “Mr Pogo”

Fraud

[wet thunder]

i didn't even bought it in mine

[lost pasture]

who is mr pogo

[wet thunder]

i just remember where to go

[severe wigeon]

Vengefly king

[tender bobcat]

ya, well i have only played the game like three times

[pastel oyster]

A buddy of mine is playing through HK for the first time

[tender bobcat]

so its a big thing for me

[lost pasture]

thats an exception

[pastel oyster]

"Unlocked the dream gate. That fucking bee is toast."

[lost pasture]

zoat is GOAT of the GOAT

NO DISPUTE

[tender bobcat]

lol

[severe wigeon]

[peak otter]

Even in my replay i had to have a map and compass because I always forget where I’m going

[tender bobcat]

three times as being three play throughs

[honest saddle]

He's the real boat

[lost pasture]

the goated boat

[tender bobcat]

one of them being my first one at like 50 hours. My second being my still soul run, and my third being the one i am doing now

[honest saddle]

Have you beat your SS run?

[severe wigeon]

I have one run , 75 hours and I’m trying to beat P5

[tender bobcat]

no, i just got through hornet

[severe wigeon]

Screw Markoth

[peak otter]

Im still technically on my first because I didn’t fight nkg and radiance before I went to fight lost lace 😅

[tender bobcat]

nice

[honest saddle]

I did mine 1st try, but that was only because I did every other achievement first and 112%'d the game 2 other times and beat it 5 other

[tender bobcat]

yup

its easy when you know the game that much

[honest saddle]

I only ever got to 1 mask once, and it was while fighting nosk

😭 :

[tender bobcat]

oh no

[twin mist]

Anyrad discord any1 ??

[outer field]

what

[tender bobcat]

i got to one on false knight

[wet thunder]

i'm stupid, explain me

[tender bobcat]

[honest saddle]

Any radiance

Hardest boss in hk modding

[tender bobcat]

[twilit ivy]

vro why does grimm troupe in p3 feel harder than nkg 😭

[wet thunder]

you all sweet and stuff but nah

[wet thunder]

[tender bobcat]

[twilit ivy]

im too used to nkg grimm troupe feels so slow

[tender bobcat]

right?

[wet thunder]

oh yeah, you about that...

yeahhhhhhhhhhh

[tender bobcat]

what?!

[severe wigeon]

All you bro

I can beat Grimm easily but I fear NKG

I still die to Markoth

[wet thunder]

I was afraid too, but when i played p5 for the second time, i beated him and died only on radiance

[tender bobcat]

ive attacked nkg more, so i am more yust to his attacks

[wet thunder]

Radiance or p5?

[severe wigeon]

P5

I’m so used to the floor

[tender bobcat]

ummmm, what is P5?

[wet thunder]

Oh yeah, that thing is annoying

[tender bobcat]

i was saying nkg

[severe wigeon]

All bosses in a pantheon

[tender bobcat]

oooohhhhhh

[wet thunder]

Fifth pantheon

[tender bobcat]

i havent gotten that far yet

[wet thunder]

Take your time vro

[tender bobcat]

ime trying

[severe wigeon]

Don’t worry it’s hell

[tender bobcat]

[wet thunder]

[tender bobcat]

[wet thunder]

Bye bye

Speedrun Hallownest Saving

[ruby quest]

Im sweating so fuggin hard

Vr horror is sumthin else

[molten yoke]

Ok second try at p5, im back to nkg. It killed me last time, but not this time

[digital grove]

you would think that markoth getting caught in the plat and being unable to take knockback would be ideal for this run because it is so easy to kill him that way
its very much the opposite for me

[copper knot]

beat

not beated

[worthy zealot]

haha suree

[proud nova]

guys

WHY IS THE COOLDOWN 10 MINS IN ART GALLERY

[worthy zealot]

hmm fair, but u can't defend dashmaster being in s tier 😭😭

[proud nova]

[molten yoke]

I have no idea, but that sounds awful

[worthy zealot]

primal aspid ?

demnnnn youuuuuuuuuu

[proud nova]

yup i'm here to haunt y'all

[worthy zealot]

[digital grove]

well if someone likes it that much i guess they can put that there, it was a subjective tierlist anyways so obviously people will have differing opinions when it comes to how much they enjoy certain charms over others

[molten yoke]

Ever since I got pure nail, you actually haven’t been that bad

[proud nova]

https://tenor.com/view/hollow-knight-primal-aspid-machine-gun-minigun-i-hate-it-gif-17572793

[digital grove]

obviously dont have to agree with it but everyones got their own opinion

[worthy zealot]

habibi you're right

[proud nova]

git gud

[worthy zealot]

[molten yoke]

Yesyes

I wanted to continue fighting p5, cause I’m at NKG, but my Xbox controller is low battery so I’m letting it charge first

[tender bobcat]

[proud nova]

expedition 33

[molten yoke]

Botw

[wet thunder]

In my speedrun i decided to not waste time on it. When i got yo Queen's Garden and went to the Deepnest, it was so dark, i should've train way on my main save

[deep knot]

er minecraft

[tidal pollen]

Huh

[tender bobcat]

terraria, minecraft, hytale, botw, totk, and most of the other zelda games

[tidal pollen]

Probably best multiplayer ever

[deep knot]

breath of the wild i assume

B O T W

[tidal pollen]

Ohh Zelda, I don’t have a Nintendo switch :(

[autumn dawn]

noice

[outer field]

I got no mind to think about anything else fav than hk/ss

[wet thunder]

yeah, me either

[tender bobcat]

ya, i also got it for peeks so then i can get descending dark

[wet thunder]

Im in the hk phase

[wet thunder]

Nice then

[autumn dawn]

eldenring, the entire pokemon game series, minecraft and probably like super smash or smth

[wet thunder]

If you'll do everything right, it'll take like 20-22 minutes

[tender bobcat]

ya, thats what i am hoping

[autumn dawn]

Botw was peak but i will say nth will beat oot or majoras mask for me just bc thats what got me into zelda games as a kid

[wet thunder]

I also waste a lot of time on these big things who's dealing 2 masks of damage

[tender bobcat]

those hurt

[wet thunder]

Yeaahhh

[tender bobcat]

its also funny

i dont have any nail upgrade or health yet

i dot even have alot of charm notches

[wet thunder]

Oh that's tough. Not having health upgrade and much charm nothces is fine, but nail...

[tender bobcat]

ya

i hade to do eumue like that

i cant spell those

[wet thunder]

Damn, I'd advice you did it at least once. You don't have to find any pale ore and 250 geos isn't really expensive

[tender bobcat]

ok

[wet thunder]

I don't remember if i upgraded nail once or twice in speedrunz but still

[tender bobcat]

all see if i can after i get the last dreamer

depends on my time

[wet thunder]

Yeah

Do you have monarch wings?

[molten yoke]

OKAY

I’m at PV in p5

[wet thunder]

Let's goooo!!!!!!!

I never died to them, but still good luck!!!

[molten yoke]

How much harder is absrad compared to regular radiance?

[wet thunder]

Honestly, I still don't understand why absrad is so hard

[viscid radish]

Why you keep posting this shit

[deep knot]

i never found this guy on my first playthrough

he sells rancid eggs?

[indigo kestrel]

to this day I still haven't used a single rancid egg

[tender bobcat]

same

[molten yoke]

Same

[tender bobcat]

what are they used for?

[wet thunder]

I got to the point that this one attacks more often, and this is the reason why you have less time to attack it

[deep knot]

same

[wet thunder]

If you don't want to return to the area to get your shadow, you can ask npc to summon your shadow to you

[deep knot]

i hate royal water ways

[wet thunder]

For eggs

[keen thorn]

Because it's Goated

[wet thunder]

Fluke mobs are really annoying

[tender bobcat]

oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

that makes sence

[molten yoke]

God the nerves got to me, died to pv

[deep knot]

wrong channel

awoo is in sk

[static charm]

BRO WHY DO I ALWAYS END UP SAYING SK STUFF IN HK DISCUSSION

RAHHHHHHH

[deep knot]

because silksong doesn't exist

[wet thunder]

Because

[deep knot]

dung defdner

[wet thunder]

Silksong doesn't exist. Our collective intelligence came up all silksong and Sea of Sorrow and actual game didn't even came out

[wet thunder]

Oh, yeah, my favourite Hollow Knight boss. Drung Defender

[deep knot]

desolate dive makes him shit easy

[wet thunder]

oh well drunk undefender is dead now

[wet thunder]

I'm interested how it is to play first nail with quick slash

[deep knot]

oh the secret roo

[wooden finch]

Yo guys i have a question i beat defender (not the dreamer one) in royal waterways and idk what boss to do

[tender bobcat]

well, after that point you need to get ismas tear, so then you can go to teachers archives

[wet thunder]

Go get isma tear

Or maybe go to the second part of Isma Tear

[dapper folio]

explore a bit more and ul find a cool ability

you need crystal dash tho

[deep knot]

these enemies suck. they're easy, but they suck

[dapper folio]

they arent easy

[wet thunder]

You're just super strong

[proud pewter]

first portion of pop done

[deep knot]

well i did radiant absrad so maybe i'm just desensitized

[dapper folio]

nice im still stuck on the last part

[deep knot]

but man. radiant absrad took me fucking 12 hours and it was torture

[dapper folio]

[deep knot]

[ebon depot]

You should be able to

Low gear wk uses it a lot, like in any%

[deep knot]

BRO

i used a vengeful spirit and the primal aspid took like 4 or 5 more hits to kill

i'm equipping shaman stone

y'know maybe i could equip fury of the fallen and go get fragile strength

[wet thunder]

Can work

[deep knot]

oh yeah i'm in kingdoms edge so i should get quick slash

[wet thunder]

Tho, i never really used fury of the fallen
