[wicked kiln]

If i would get a dollar every time i fell for the red 1 on april second id have 6 to 7 dollars

[honest shale]

most common death

but no other radiants are much harder

[sturdy bloom]

Thought I was the only one who struggled

[zealous skiff]

No its an exaggeration. People tilt on vfk in p5 hitless. In reality if vfk was in the middle of p5 it would be a 100% consistent boss

[honest shale]

let 67 die

please

[wicked kiln]

What about 67?

[honest shale]

i hate it so much

[sturdy bloom]

Boutta crutch quick focus again omg

[wicked kiln]

Why did you think about the meme

There was no intend of the meme

[honest shale]

actually?

[wicked kiln]

Speaking facts

[honest shale]

mb then

[wicked kiln]

Yep looks like you gotta let 67 die

[honest shale]

i deserve that

and i really fucking hate that i deserve that

[wicked kiln]

Boi you got manipulated by the big dura😂😂😂

[honest shale]

no i didnt

thats misinformation

[wicked kiln]

I made the 67 meme intentionally for someone to point it out and switch the roles as if you were the 67 freak and not i

[foggy sable]

not helped by the fact that the boss is a slow cutscene

[honest shale]

because i chose not to believe it

[sturdy bloom]

That took too long to beat just ascended

[honest shale]

nuh uh

[wicked kiln]

I be moving like kira

[honest shale]

proof?

[wicked kiln]

You gor manipulated by me

[honest shale]

no i didnt

when did that happen?

[wicked kiln]

You can deny all you want truth will always be truth

[honest shale]

not according to you

[wicked kiln]

https://tenor.com/view/death-note-naomi-misora-light-yagami-kira-death-gif-22563484

[honest shale]

remeber truth theory?

[wicked kiln]

Im so aura

[honest shale]

like at the end of last week?

[wicked kiln]

That was so dishonest from me and ironic😭😭😭

[honest shale]

no it wasnt

you meant every word you said

[wicked kiln]

If i were to truly believe in that i would consider myself stupid and if i do then you can consider me stupid too

[honest shale]

exactly

you are stupid

im glad we can come to an agreement

[wicked kiln]

You can say wtv you want at the end i come out on top

[honest shale]

nah

[wicked kiln]

Ts is me and you arguing

[honest shale]

if i deny it hard enough ppl will call me crazy and stop talking

[honest shale]

no we are two fucking monkeys on typewriters

[heavy roost]

Im glad that since i left the mpreg discussion has ended, but what is going on

[honest shale]

ragebait ception

[wicked kiln]

Even infinite typing monkeys will write the entire understanding and physics of quantum physics out as a whole at one point

[wicked kiln]

2 philosophers arguing

[sturdy bloom]

Yo what ddark is crazy im dumb for never trying it

[heavy roost]

I can tell.

[wicked kiln]

Like the jobless chuds back then in rome

[hollow forge]

typewriters dont have ħ on their keyboard

[honest shale]

but will they understand?

[wicked kiln]

That was deep

You won this round

[polar summit]

Not unless you try hard enough

[honest shale]

we were arguing?

anyways brb

[wicked kiln]

Discussing

[wicked kiln]

You made me think of a meme

So i made it real quick

[heavy roost]

I see nothing pure truth

[foggy sable]

I dislike this but like...

[wicked kiln]

Its true to an extend😭

[sturdy bloom]

I've been nail only besides farming but ddark do go crazy
And I fw shriek I rarely use em tho

[foggy sable]

in a weird way

[hollow forge]

i used to be nail only until i discovered the watcher knights

[foggy sable]

not disproving the image

[frigid bronze]

I’m the sigma on the right

[wicked kiln]

Problem is many new players are stuck at being not that good cause they actively avoid using spells and say "i dont like spells" and just dont improve cause of that

[hollow forge]

yeah but i went from the left side to the middle

[frigid bronze]

It’s cause they use them badly and get punished

[sturdy bloom]

I've started using em kinda right but I dont use any spell charms

[frigid bronze]

I still find the water knights a breeze with strength and quickslash on

But if you’re playing the game normally by the time you’re on watcher knights you aren’t really using those

[heavy roost]

Whack em hard and whack em fast and you wont need spells

[frigid bronze]

If I had to choose a specific build for the entirety of p5 it would be a nail build just cause it’s what I’m comfortable with

But it’s probably not efficient

[foggy sable]

spells are still extremely useful and optimal in the fight

[honest shale]

spells are so easy to learn too

im speaking from experience

[wicked kiln]

Thats the thing unless youre not far far above average and a sweat only using nail is worse than nail and spell

[honest shale]

i just press the r button every so often and do a shit ton of damage

[wicked kiln]

Depends on what spell

[foggy sable]

every speedrun except for some boss speedkill extensively uses spells

[frigid bronze]

Is the issue that my spells are bonded to right on the pad

[honest shale]

well vs is extremely easy

[wicked kiln]

On everything ddark iframes are randomised i hate them

[foggy sable]

the only time where spells aren't in top level play is equipment restricted runs iirc

[honest shale]

or fury speedkills

[wicked kiln]

Yeah spells in early game are broken

[foggy sable]

even something like p5 speedruns use a lot of spells

[wicked kiln]

They use fluke tho iirc

[sturdy bloom]

Is Sentinel hornet a boss u learn by parrying?

[hollow forge]

ub strength fury of the fallen 1 mask 4 lifeblood masks

[heavy roost]

Im not saying that they arent useful

[wicked kiln]

😭

No

[heavy roost]

Just that you can still do things without them

[wicked kiln]

Just be faster

[foggy sable]

you shouldn't

[honest shale]

some very specific single boss speedkills

[hollow forge]

ultimate nail build run

[sturdy bloom]

How do u do 1 mask

[wicked kiln]

What

[honest shale]

get hit

[hollow forge]

ub strength
fury activated
4 lifeblood masks

[honest shale]

dont forget quick slash and steady body

[sturdy bloom]

But if ur in rad then what? It just doesnt work?

[honest shale]

dont use fury

[sweet blaze]

smh corry

check dms for once

[foggy sable]

use fury and just have it there for fun

[honest shale]

you are excluded from this discussion

fuck you

[foggy sable]

unfair

[honest shale]

holy bad timing

[sweet blaze]

[hollow forge]

equip gathering swarm in godhome

[sturdy bloom]

Bet

[honest shale]

wb greed?

[foggy sable]

equipping thorns in godhome imo

[hollow forge]

true

[frigid bronze]

Gorns of thagony

[hollow forge]

upgrade the fragile charms in steel soul

[wicked kiln]

Valid

[frigid bronze]

I had to think about that

You ragebaited me and I almost fell for it

[honest shale]

W video idea
“I kidnapped a 14 year old and forced them to do r5ab for ten hours straight”

[foggy sable]

useless charms have their place

[foggy sable]

if you force someone to do r5ab for 10 hours and they have no hk experience they aren't getting past hornet 1

[wicked kiln]

That wayward compass that was in every bossfight in our first playthrough

Same thing

[frigid bronze]

I wouldn’t say that

[sturdy bloom]

Fax

I use compass still but not in godhome

[foggy sable]

I would say that

[honest shale]

fine then until they beat absrad

[frigid bronze]

My first hk experience was fighting thk and I beat him in like 30 minutes

[wicked kiln]

Think about it someone who learns to only play r5ab doesnt lose smth they have already learned when doing r5ab but only gain

[sweet blaze]

what

[foggy sable]

if they also get hall of gods to practice maybe they get to oro mato

[sweet blaze]

in a few years they might manage if they practice like 5 hours a day

[honest shale]

i cannot believe we just ignored the kidnapped and 14 yr old part

[frigid bronze]

I’m thinking they reach oro mato with no hog

[sweet blaze]

[foggy sable]

if you put in 5 hours a day you could go from 0 hk knowledge to r5ab in under a year I think

if you didn't lose the will to live

[hollow forge]

my first hk death was the husk guard in the grub room

[foggy sable]

which you would

[sweet blaze]

hey, 0.9 years is still 'a few years'

[frigid bronze]

Maybe half a year

5 hours a day

[bold rose]

well

[sweet blaze]

ez

[bold rose]

def not

[frigid bronze]

U got that

[wicked kiln]

Thats no doubt possible thats litteraly like 1500 hours

If i did the math in my head right

[foggy sable]

it is

[sweet blaze]

if you did ascended you'll get radiant in like 10 tries tops
surely

[foggy sable]

but it is r5ab so like

[sweet blaze]

yeah it's very variable

[bold rose]

took me more than 10 to get asc

[sweet blaze]

true

asc to radiant is easier than att to asc for nkg

[bold rose]

its my 2nd last rad

[sweet blaze]

even better

[honest shale]

u got this

i watched the ascended clear live u can do radiant

[bold rose]

i only got asbrad left

i died to the first attack

[sweet blaze]

smh throwing

ok bye

@shrewd meadow ym

[honest shale]

tf

what did throwout do?

[sweet blaze]

who knows

(dont ping ty)

[honest shale]

oh ok

[bold rose]

man.

nkg is just too fast for me

[honest shale]

ykw give me ur address and ill do it for u /j

[bold rose]

i do have debug mod

[compact jewel]

he doesn't actually require quick timing if you know his moves

[bold rose]

yeah but i gotta know which one he is going to do

[frigid bronze]

He shows you

[honest shale]

your pattern recognition skills are so ass bro

[frigid bronze]

Just gotta acknowledge where he starts at for specific attacks

[bold rose]

i don't know

[foggy sable]

You can tell the attack based on where he spawns

[honest shale]

unless its fire bats or uppercut

but both have a lot of time to react anyways

[foggy sable]

He spawns further on fire bat

I think

[honest shale]

i dont think so

[bold rose]

see firebats is ez

[foggy sable]

I don't actually look at the fight nowadays

[bold rose]

the 2 slashes are hard

the spikes are free but you get no damage
the fire pilars are stressful but i rarely die to them and its a lot of dmg

also i am using debug mod for hp

furthest i got

[honest shale]

legit just take baby steps for those

fire pillars so free

[heavy roost]

Keep to the sides, run at him for fire bats, step to the side when he uppercuts, jump over the dash

[bold rose]

yeah i mean
free to dodge
a bit harder to get good damage in

[warm aurora]

I just checked your nailart binds, will try those, I swapped attack with crystal dash before but quickmap is worth trying, any good place to use them in godhome?

[foggy sable]

I threw an absrad run so close to the end of plats this sucks

[honest shale]

already off to a terrible start with that advice

stay near the center

[heavy roost]

How so

[foggy sable]

Not really, the non combat inputs don't matter much anyway so

[heavy roost]

Its easiest to catch him after a dash when he bumps into a wall

The only time you are at the center is when going for pillars or bats

[foggy sable]

Being in the middle gives more options

[bold rose]

new furthest: 350

ddark spam is working..

[foggy sable]

Wait I misread I don't understand this

[heavy roost]

Also being near the sides (but not completely) gives you a better chance to dodge fireballs

[real pasture]

Just did these children can be so pushy

[sweet blaze]

hey, as long as you get a free meal later

[real pasture]

Free meal?? That was not in the original offer

[bold rose]

<@&283547423706447872>

[tired tapir]

man what the fuck

[honest shale]

whats worst is this guy took the time to get image perms

[real pasture]

Thanks

[honest shale]

how often does this happen on other chanels

[warm aurora]

the reply on my last message

[tired tapir]

not that often

[honest shale]

thank god

[warm aurora]

this

[honest shale]

honestly i expected it more in general

[bold rose]

okay so
apparently
you can just dash the opposide side of him and not get hit by the dash
i though he would hit you even if you dashes and you had to jump over him

[heavy roost]

Might have been stickers, not images maybe?

[warm aurora]

yes

[warm aurora]

stickers and emojis from other server-perms behind a message count?

[raven valve]

w-what happened

[past cargo]

The server icon fooled my april so bad 😭😭

[warm aurora]

you dont want to know

[sullen kayak]

the hell happened??

[honest shale]

like 10 nsfw images

[warm aurora]

was so bad I went to another channel to ping mods

[warm aurora]

way more if you include reactions

[raven valve]

oh god

[honest shale]

oh yeah

[warm aurora]

and gifs, animated stickers

[void beacon]

But why would someone do such a disgusting thing...

[honest shale]

like very nsfw

[honest shale]

no life

[real pasture]

People be strange

[warm aurora]

.

[bold rose]

???

[honest shale]

Wtf

[stone mural]

whys epstein here

[void beacon]

fr

[honest shale]

does someone have that pluggin to see deleted messages

[raven valve]

huh?

[honest shale]

if so who the fuck sent that

[stone mural]

only the mods have that

[raven valve]

that exists?

[honest shale]

extension

[bold rose]

this guy

[void beacon]

Imagine posting NSFW in a discord abt a game that doesn't remotely use any form of nsfw...

[honest shale]

he did?

[bold rose]

yeah

[warm aurora]

I saw it

[void beacon]

i did to

[honest shale]

no like to see who sent it

i didnt catch it

[warm aurora]

oh

same

[void beacon]

Some days i regret having eyes

[warm aurora]

hollow moment

[honest shale]

only some?

[warm aurora]

[raven valve]

i mean youre in this server so of course you will regret being in it

[void beacon]

most days actually

[void beacon]

nah, i like hk so good

[bold rose]

@raven valve

[honest shale]

interesting

ty

[compact jewel]

sprint master is nice to easier run away from nkg ground dash

[void beacon]

its really helpfull sometimes

[warm aurora]

I did use it for that boss

recommend

[honest shale]

bro only 1 dash is needed

[compact jewel]

but then you have to evade the fireballs instead of just shadow dashing

[void beacon]

is plutonian knight the one who posted NSFW?

[raven valve]

no

[void beacon]

oh srry

[raven valve]

i wasnt even in this channel when that happened 😭

[void beacon]

oh

nvm then

[honest shale]

if u dash away u will be in postion to dodge the fireballs anyways

[void beacon]

srry for the allegation

[honest shale]

he sent the epstien

[void beacon]

ow

ok

[raven valve]

i was in #hk-general then i asked what the fuck happened here after someone said smth about it

[void beacon]

ok

[honest shale]

why wre u in hkgen?

[void beacon]

people are so frigging disgusting

[warm aurora]

that person has to be banned now

[void beacon]

fr

[warm aurora]

100% certain

[void beacon]

probably alr is

[warm aurora]

yes

[honest shale]

thats certainly a place

[honest shale]

Yeah they were

[raven valve]

to experience my free trial of hell

[void beacon]

ok

[bold rose]

sprint master for nkg seems nice

[void beacon]

nice to here

[warm aurora]

in what timezones is it still april 1st?

has to be some niche islands

[void beacon]

id say in the US

[honest shale]

maybe the 3 US timezones?

[foggy sable]

I'd just go to some fights like attuned markoth and practice nail arts

[void beacon]

can Discord itself perm ban people?

[raven valve]

look in my defense it wasnt any nsfw material or encouraging nsfw material
but the big e was in it and it was satirizing a bit so um

[honest shale]

probably

[ebon depot]

yes

[warm aurora]

west alaska it seems? from a quick check

[raven valve]

prob when youre underage

[bold rose]

atleasdt a few

[warm aurora]

sure

[warm aurora]

not many

[void beacon]

thats 12 right

to use discord

[honest shale]

yeah thats maybe not the best to post

[warm aurora]

its 09:30 a.m. in londen rn which is the centre timezone

[wary hound]

Hi

[honest shale]

13

[honest shale]

hi

[warm aurora]

gtg

[void beacon]

[honest shale]

hru

[wary hound]

Hru

[bold rose]

[honest shale]

good

hbu

[raven valve]

okay thats true

[bold rose]

4.5 or 3.5 hours left of april fools somewhere

[wary hound]

[void beacon]

pretty sick joke

[warm aurora]

I dont think so

[honest shale]

yeah the middle of the fucking pacific

[warm aurora]

I live in the netherlands, we have +1

[honest shale]

great to hear

[void beacon]

same

[warm aurora]

nice

[void beacon]

im at school rn

[wary hound]

Not really

[bold rose]

maybe because daylight savings time

[foggy sable]

7:34pm atm

[honest shale]

well alive is better than dead

[wary hound]

Mmm

[void beacon]

the nsfw poster should be crucified

[honest shale]

oh yeah u missed a guy

[foggy sable]

I've somehow missed all that drama

[honest shale]

be very glad

[void beacon]

BE GLAD U DID

[honest shale]

my eyes need to be bleached now

[void beacon]

same

[foggy sable]

drama

[wary hound]

Huh

[foggy sable]

Bloodshed

Ummm there should be a third word but idk

[honest shale]

some guy posted like 10 nsfw images

[void beacon]

u wanna now the drama?

[pearl sage]

Sure we can do it today

[wary hound]

Guh so cooked

[pearl sage]

I'll talk when I get the chance

[honest shale]

fear

[foggy sable]

I figured it out from reading the past messages

[bold rose]

what 2 notch can i add

[pearl sage]

My exams got postponed today

[void beacon]

what, why?

[bold rose]

i wish i could shaman stone but not enough notches

[pearl sage]

Thunder rain and bad weather

[void beacon]

ah

[compact jewel]

sprintmaster and grubsong

[wary hound]

what is this build for?

[bold rose]

rad nkg..

[honest shale]

its ok relatively bad for nkg

[pearl sage]

Grubsong and Nailmaster's Glory

[compact jewel]

oh, radiant

[void beacon]

u dutch?

[wary hound]

wtf is this cooked ah build why no quick slash???

[pearl sage]

Egyptian

[void beacon]

ah

ok

[wary hound]

Why sprint master

[honest shale]

yeah wtf

[void beacon]

quick dashing

[bold rose]

mop + longnail + steady body + strenght + 2 notch for soul = 11

[wary hound]

That’s dash master

[honest shale]

i can see why hes struggling 😭

[void beacon]

yes

[heavy roost]

My guess is hes trying to avoid damage by not being able to overextend

[wary hound]

Gang remove long nail add quick slash and nmg

[honest shale]

how on earth do you overextend on nkg

[void beacon]

fr

[bold rose]

nmg ain't gonna do shit

[heavy roost]

No idea

[honest shale]

tf?

[wary hound]

U should use lots of nail arts against nkg ( i would know )

[honest shale]

nmg cracked fir nkg

[ebon depot]

Narts are very valid for nkg

[frigid bronze]

Bro?

[wary hound]

?

[void beacon]

burger

[frigid bronze]

For someone trying to beat Grimm for the first time trying to time nail arts might not be the move

[pearl sage]

Try this build out

Steady Body, Unbreakable Strength, Quick Slash, Mark of Pride, and overcharm with Shaman Stone

[foggy sable]

Nail arts are extremely good against nkg

[wary hound]

ITS RADIANT NKG nail arts are op

[heavy roost]

Radiant nkg

[wary hound]

I would know

[pearl sage]

That's the build I used when I was doing Radiant NKG

[frigid bronze]

Oh I thought it was his first time fighting him at all

[honest shale]

steady bidy fir nkg is imo bad

[bold rose]

i think id rather have more soul than shaman stone but idk i guess

[wary hound]

Ehhh ig a bit

[pearl sage]

Oh?

[pearl sage]

Don't stick to one build

[bold rose]

i guess i can do no longnail

[ebon depot]

Its fine if you can greg knight but most people probably arent doing that

[pearl sage]

Try everything

[compact jewel]

strength, quick slash, longnail, mark of pride, steady body, sprintmaster

[wary hound]

Yeh moo should be enough

[wary hound]

Guh sprint master is soo ahhh al

[bold rose]

i mean
i now know that i can just dash away and he dosen't fucking reach me during the uppercut attackj

[wary hound]

Wait gang I just realised ur not overcharming

[bold rose]

i am

[wary hound]

Wait what’s the build

[bold rose]

i changed to the without longnail one

[pearl sage]

Is NKG your last radiant?

[compact jewel]

ok what moves do you have trouble with

[bold rose]

2nd to last

[pearl sage]

Which ones do you have left

[compact jewel]

hard to believe

[bold rose]

nkg, absrad

[honest shale]

its up to personal preference

[pearl sage]

Oh alright

[pearl sage]

Yeah I'm just recommending a build

He can try them all

And see which one he's good with

[honest shale]

yeah

[compact jewel]

pv is so much harder, just try nkg a bit more

[pearl sage]

My last hitless boss for radhog is Absolute Radiance

[bold rose]

i used mop, unb strenght, sbody, soul eater for asc
maybe i should just do that again but with shaman stone overcharm

[compact jewel]

just melee him

[honest shale]

u dont have radhog?

[honest shale]

quick slash

please use quick slash

[compact jewel]

just beat him again https://streamable.com/5nxcfc

[warm aurora]

same

[pearl sage]

I do but only Absolute Radiance is left

[bold rose]

it messes up timings with pogo|
yeah i know quickslash is the best charm and stuff
but i am ddark spamming and a bit of nail for soul

[pearl sage]

Basically radhog but doesn't count since I didn't do it yet

[heavy roost]

Does rad nkg change in some way, or is it just a health/damage boost?

[rich stone]

It's just health and damage buff

[heavy roost]

Alr

Will try once im home then

[bold rose]

asci s more hp and dmg
rad is 1 hit kill

[rich stone]

Only specific bosses get arena changes

[heavy roost]

Ik what rad entails..

[midnight urchin]

radiant difficulty in godhome

after ascended

[delicate coral]

Nkg will be easy

[bold rose]

its not

[delicate coral]

can you do it on asc

[compact jewel]

why are you pogoing against nkg?

[rich stone]

For NKG you just need to make sure to know the attacks and not panic

[delicate coral]

you dont NEED to pogo nkg

[bold rose]

I FUCKING DO

[delicate coral]

its just to get in more damage

[bold rose]

the side slash

[rich stone]

Then how do you die to NKG

[delicate coral]

you can just double jump same with pv

[earnest dragon]

rocket

[bold rose]

ITS TOO FAST

[earnest dragon]

rocket

[honest shale]

bro

[rich stone]

NKG is slower than PV but it is a fast boss

[honest shale]

i dont even

[delicate coral]

Js practice on attuned. Generally if you can do it somewhat consistently on attuned you can do it on radiant easily same with pv

[pearl sage]

Play defensive first

[delicate coral]

because its just patterns

[pearl sage]

I've said this to everyone that struggled with NKG

[delicate coral]

just practice dodging and not hitting him since its the same thing four times

[pearl sage]

Don't start attacking out of nowhere

[honest shale]

you cant beat him bcs u never kearned how to dodge the attacks correctly just ddark spam

[rich stone]

PV is harder because it's faster and has more RNG

[pearl sage]

Create specific strategies for each move and don't damage the boss until you're confident enough about it

[earnest dragon]

js shadedash through and move towards him

[bold rose]

NKG IS WAY FASTER 😭

pv is fucking dipshit ez

[pearl sage]

You're going to never beat the boss if you just hit him randomly and hope for the best

[delicate coral]

yes, but the same principle applies imho

[earnest dragon]

yh

[compact jewel]

his dash where he starts in the air just needs a double jump

[pearl sage]

No

[earnest dragon]

learn the pattern

[rich stone]

But it's easier to beat NKG

[bold rose]

i know his moves

its just too fucking fast usually

[heavy roost]

That should be standard practice for all boses honestly

[pearl sage]

When he dashes at you directly from the air, I recommend you just pogo him, but you do whatever you feel is confident so note that out

[delicate coral]

Not absrad

[honest shale]

bcs all u learnt was ddark spam

[earnest dragon]

rocket what attack u struuggle with

[bold rose]

oh bhtW:
i did rad pv before i even knew ddark gave iframes

[earnest dragon]

????

[pearl sage]

Descending Dark spam wouldn't work if that's the only thing you're ever doing

[heavy roost]

Why so?

[honest shale]

you dont know how to correctly dodge any attack

[delicate coral]

But yeah this is true

[bold rose]

i fucking did pv without it

you know what fuck you i am doing pv

[honest shale]

thats irrelevent

[ashen ginkgo]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-22201828

[pearl sage]

Me neither because I felt like Descending Dark spam isn't the move for me

[honest shale]

if u cant beat a boss without ddark then you’re not good at it

[pearl sage]

Exactly

[compact jewel]

I bet the main thing distracting you is the fireballs from above. just shadow dash those

[pearl sage]

Descending Dark can be support but it can't be your main source of damage

[honest shale]

furthermore nkg is one of the worst bosses to ddark spam

[earnest dragon]

bro nkg is harder with dd

[honest shale]

unless its sob

[earnest dragon]

true

[gusty patio]

its rlly versatile so it can deal large chunks but never ur main

[honest shale]

that fight was made for ddark

[ebon depot]

ddark can be your main source of damage on like, most fights lmao

[gusty patio]

no???

[pearl sage]

Yeah that's my point

[honest shale]

tf u on

[delicate coral]

you can do it its just a lot more based on you adapting to whats going on, the strategies and coming up with methods of dealing with stuff still applies. Youre right but its slightly less helpful for absrad, I'd probably recommend the no damage defensive style to help at first

[harsh cave]

im in the last part of path of pain

[gusty patio]

exactlyits good for evading attacks while alsodealing 88 dmg

[crisp willow]

Goog morning vessels

[earnest dragon]

it kind is

[delicate coral]

Ddark

[pearl sage]

So you're saying I should abandon my nail and start spamming DDark instead

That's never a good thing

[bold rose]

fuck you first fucking try

without ddark

[gusty patio]

wait tl bro realises its optional

[bold rose]

rad pv

[delicate coral]

gg

[gusty patio]

W H A T

[harsh cave]

ik it is

[gusty patio]

HOWWWW

[ebon depot]

you can ddark spam the vast majority of fights when youre not doing radiant, and even then you can just dodge a couple attacks until you have soul again

[honest shale]

pure vessel is irrelevent to the conversation

[pearl sage]

Good luck

[gusty patio]

DONT MATTER WDYM FIRST TRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[bold rose]

no, its relevant bc its not me having a skill issue

[harsh cave]

but something force me to do it again

[pearl sage]

Pure Vessel won't help you beat NKG

[compact jewel]

so not skill issue but pattern recognition issue

[gusty patio]

HOWBROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[tepid relic]

NKG is different

[honest shale]

…it is tho

[ebon depot]

you can literally ddark spam pv to the point where you actually dodge 0 attacks besides dagger throw for soul on attuned decently consistently

[honest shale]

u dont know how to dodge nkgs attacks

bcs u ddark spam

[earnest dragon]

pv is ngl easier to rad than nkg

[bold rose]

i do its just.
nkg is not fucking consistent

[compact jewel]

it absolutely is

[delicate coral]

Its subjective

[honest shale]

nkg is one of the most consistent bosses in the game

[pearl sage]

?

NKG is literally one of the most consistent bosses in the game

[delicate coral]

different ppl find different things harder

[heavy roost]

Nkg is ectremely consistent

[earnest dragon]

ig

[bold rose]

don't care i am doing absrad

[rich stone]

I think you just lack Patience as NKG needs more Patience than PV

[pearl sage]

Alright

[honest shale]

ok gl

[delicate coral]

fine gl

[heavy roost]

Gl champ

[pearl sage]

Just one thing I want to say

[honest shale]

but for the record you do not get to complain abt nkg while playing like that

[delicate coral]

if youre complaining about consistency then going to absrad idk what to say

[ebon depot]

if youre doing attuned you absolutely can do that yes for the vast majority of bosses, the only ones i can think of where that wont work are like, markoth, absrad and maybe fc depending on if full soul is enough for stagger

[delicate coral]

Ddark in absrad is great

[pliant bough]

yato...

[ebon depot]

yeah you just cant carry yourself through it with that alone since you dont hit the full thing

[rich stone]

Especially in the Spike Floor phace you can also use it to remove the spikes

[delicate coral]

Yeah

[pearl sage]

Don't be going around calling bosses inconsistent if you just use Descending Dark and do nothing else, learn how to dodge the boss manually and keep Descending Dark more like an emergency move or a support move to help you with the boss, not just depend on it for the entire fight

[delicate coral]

mhm

[rigid heart]

Absrad?

[median edge]

absolute radiance

[delicate coral]

Also same for gpz but I need to practice him

[foggy sable]

All I can do is DDark what do I do

[rich stone]

And in Plats as long as you make sure not to Ddark into the Void

[bold rose]

i never use ddark outside of nkg
you know why?
because i can consistnetly dodge them
but nkg is not fucking like that and i can't consistently learn nkg

[earnest dragon]

move around

[rigid heart]

Don't you need to beat NKG in p5 to unlock absolute radiance

[rich stone]

Ddark is the most fun to use against SoB

[pearl sage]

You are herbey sentenced to all bindings only Gruz Mother r5

[delicate coral]

I lost two of my rad absrad runs in last phase falling into spikes

[bold rose]

yeah it was harder than asbrad

[honest shale]

you already are consistent at every dodge (besides r5ab collector) so you’re fine

[pearl sage]

Then learn it

What's stopping you

[bold rose]

being unlearnable 😭

[earnest dragon]

like how

[foggy sable]

Not absrad

[delicate coral]

How

[pearl sage]

How

[earnest dragon]

actually how

[foggy sable]

I would rather die

[pearl sage]

You can literally learn all of his moves with ease if you just pay attention

[honest shale]

i would personally mail grass to your house if you get consistent with absrad

[pearl sage]

😭😭

[earnest dragon]

there are many ways to dodge all his attacks

[foggy sable]

I'm working on it

[bold rose]

only time i use ddark in asbrad is to get rid of the spikes on the floor

[earnest dragon]

btw yall whats the best build for p5

???

[wicked kiln]

Not consistent at absrad?

[honest shale]

ok then gimme your home address

[pearl sage]

I feel like I'm consistent with every Absolute Radiance phase, except for climb phase of course

[rich stone]

You can heal in every attack expect one pretty consistently it's not that hard

[honest shale]

subjective

[foggy sable]

Not without ddark

[pearl sage]

DDark with Absolute Radiance is a different story

[foggy sable]

I have access to grass already

[pliant bough]

nuhuh

[pearl sage]

You need as much I-frames in the Absolute Radiance fight as possible

[honest shale]

but this is funny

[pearl sage]

That definitely helps

[ebon depot]

basically no one is consistent to the point where they want to be at absrad theres way too many fucking patterns, besides like teano because that man is a robot

[pearl sage]

Grass is so far away from my house

Can't touch it

[earnest dragon]

i personally m using strength quick mop and spell twister

[rigid heart]

Personally the build i used was
Mark of pride, unbreakable strength, unbreakable heart and quick slash

[earnest dragon]

should i use heart?

[foggy sable]

I just need to be like 70% consistent at rab

[rich stone]

It's a good build

[earnest dragon]

k

[pearl sage]

Man I've been arguing here for like 30 minutes and I forgot to make breakfast

😭

[honest shale]

bro how does that even happen

[earnest dragon]

im lowkey always getting hit so ill use heart

[pearl sage]

Alright goodbye

[pearl sage]

Egg

[foggy sable]

I've done that before

[delicate coral]

try to take it off eventually because its a crutch

[rigid heart]

Which bosses do you struggle on?
Out of curiosity

[pliant bough]

[pearl sage]

Okay before I go I just thought about something

[earnest dragon]

markoth

[honest shale]

is that just a thing that happens when you become an adult?

[pearl sage]

What do you guys think I should make alongisde eggs and salad

[frozen storm]

Was spelless R5 already done

[rigid heart]

Oh him

[earnest dragon]

and gpz

[rigid heart]

Yeah that's fair

[delicate coral]

Have u done asc/rad markoth

[foggy sable]

So many times

[pearl sage]

Idk

Probably

[rigid heart]

They were a massive block for me

[earnest dragon]

no

[foggy sable]

I could do it if I put a few days into it

[earnest dragon]

i should practice him

[frozen storm]

Quantify many

[foggy sable]

It is significantly easier than charmless r5

[honest shale]

just, look it up on yt

[foggy sable]

So make of that what you will

[delicate coral]

Do it on ascended, p5 will become a joke bc of his lack of health

[gusty patio]

"we r hollow knight fans,we love suffering and find it enjoyable"rehehehe

[frozen storm]

YouTube is not a search engine

[earnest dragon]

i can do rad ngk and acd pv so if i get past him i can get to absrad

[foggy sable]

At least 50 if I had to guess

[honest shale]

it has a search bar dumbass

[rigid heart]

Best of luck Alex!

[earnest dragon]

thx

[pliant bough]

yes it is

[earnest dragon]

[frozen storm]

Hello I'm doing good

[delicate coral]

gl then, if you struggle id just practice asc markoth and zote because those two will kill your run based on what youre saying (if you die to markoth or come out of his fight with low health)

[honest shale]

[bitter jolt]

😭

[frozen storm]

I never blocked anyone in any platform

[bitter jolt]

🔥

[delicate coral]

how come

[foggy sable]

If anyone posts 3 annoying images I block them to collapse their messages

[delicate coral]

like not even anyone who is spamming you

[frozen storm]

In my opinion, it's kinda childish in a way

[honest shale]

ok im bored hes getting unblocked

[bitter jolt]

yay :>

im not reaccepting your friend request tho

asshole

[delicate coral]

I see that, I generally dont block anyone i actually know though since why would I do that

[bitter jolt]

./j

[honest shale]

[bitter jolt]

[frozen storm]

Would you rather be called dauson

Dalson

[heavy roost]

Each time i come back to smth interesting at first glance

How do you not have accents in a Portuguese keyboard

[crisp isle]

idk

[bitter jolt]

by the way you can make the text bigger

[honest shale]

ik

just not how

[crisp isle]

probably i do

^ this works?

[bitter jolt]

by adding ## at the start of your message

[frozen storm]

Yes

[crisp isle]

2^4

[bitter jolt]

## like this

[crisp isle]

yea it probably does

[frozen storm]

16

[honest shale]

rip :<

[frozen storm]

Descending dark spammer

[zealous skiff]

i have rly bad reaction time so i normally react

[honest shale]

bro

[frozen storm]

With a ddark?

[bitter jolt]

oh yeah also when i was doing p5 with soul binding in plats absrad did beam wall and i immediately wasted my 1 soul cast on ddark 😭

[zealous skiff]

if you saw how i play plats normally you would understand

[bitter jolt]

like no hesitation, i immediately ddarked nothing

[zealous skiff]

sorry i normalkly dont react and just ddark

[bitter jolt]

the beam didn't even reach me

[zealous skiff]

especially if its off screen

[bitter jolt]

😭

[zealous skiff]

same for lasers

[zealous skiff]

rip

[bitter jolt]

didn't use ddark any other time in the entire fight too

😂

[honest shale]

bro these attacks have some of the most obvious telegraphs

and are so easy to dodge up close

[bitter jolt]

wait chomp weren't you like the fourth to clear anyrad

how did you clear if your reaction time was slow

[bold rose]

fuck all of you

[frozen storm]

I have a beef against ddark and I just use it when I don't have shade cloak on laser wall or with THE BALLS OF LIGHT AND DESPAIR

[honest shale]

what did we do bro?

[bitter jolt]

23rd* close enough

[stiff loom]

Ngl that's kinda gay

[bitter jolt]
